A Polypharmacy of Herbs for Daily Wellness

Sports and Endurance Supplements

The Muscular System consists of all the muscle tissue of the body, including the skeletal muscle, the muscle in the gut and the cardiac muscle. When we increase our metabolic activity we need support for extra energy production. We have extra demand for oxygen, food and water. Increased energy production creates increased metabolic waste and therefore the need for food elimination from the cells.
To maintain high energy levels we need more nutrients. Most people involved in sports know they need to take supplements. Few, however, are aware of the importance of nutrition at a cellular level and the extra benefit of whole-food supplementation.
Putting back what civilisation has taken out
GNLD (as Neo-Life) first became involved in the development of natural wholefood supplements as a result of medical and scientific studies carried out in the 1950s. This research looked at the causes behind unexplained 'chronic fatigue' and lack of energy, as well as low endocrine or hormonal function, within a large population of women in Southern California.

Despite the fact that these women seemed to have a good diet, it was found that the nutrients in their food were not being fully utilised; and attention then turned to the role of 'cellular nutrition' - the active process that allows nutrients to enter the cells of the body, to be used in producing energy and in carrying out the cells' normal function.
It was discovered that a group of essential nutrients - the lipids and sterols - not able to be produced by the body, play a vital role in cellular nutrition. They keep the cell membrane around each cell soft and permeable, ensuring that the cells receive the nutrients they require to function efficiently.
