| Internal Cleansing |
 |
|
Whether you strive to become a world class Olympian
or just the healthiest guest at the block party,
regular maintenance of the body’s various internal
systems is essential to achieve optimal performance.
Discount Nutrition – Buckhead offers a plethora of
cleansing products to fulfill all of your “Spring
Cleaning” needs! Cleansing helps us shake off any
excess or sluggishness accumulated over the winter,
and Spring is a perfect time to perform a whole body
internal cleanse or liver cleanse.
- Triphala
Internal Cleanser by Planetary Formulas
This is a potent, yet gentle formula, designed
to support the body's natural cleansing process.
Michael Tierra learned about Triphala while studying
Ayurveda in India and subsequently introduced it to
the United States. It has been one of the most
important formulas of Ayurvedic herbalism for
thousands of years. Used as
a household staple throughout India, Triphala is a
balanced blend of three Indian herbal fruits:
harada, amla, and behada. This formula is unique in
that the astringent qualities of the fruits serve to
tonify the colon, thereby promoting internal
cleansing naturally.*
- Bupleurum
Liver Cleanse by Planetary Formulas
The
liver plays an important role in detoxification - it
is responsible for facilitating digestion and
elimination, and filtering potentially toxic waste
products from the blood.
The Chinese herb bupleurum has a unique reputation
for deeply cleansing this overburdened organ.
Bupleurum Liver Cleanse combines this Chinese
classic with renowned herbs from three continents to
facilitate deep internal cleansing.*

| Respiratory Health |
 |
|
Virtually all of us take the ability to get a good
breath of air for granted. However, for people
suffering from chronic sinusitis, asthma,
bronchitis, chronic obstructive lung disease and
other diseases of the respiratory tract an
effortless breath of air is greatly appreciated.
One of most important features of healthy airways is
the elasticity and fluidity of the respiratory tract
secretions. If the mucus is too thick and viscous,
it creates a scenario that fosters blocked airways
and difficulty in breathing. Fortunately there are
safe and effective natural products that can improve
these secretions and as a result lead to easier
breathing.*
- Lung,
Bronchial, and Sinus Health by Natural
Factors
The
components of this formula from Natural Factors are
especially useful in supporting the health of the
respiratory passages. Dr. Murray's formula is an
all-natural expectorant to help soothe the
respiratory airways, thin mucus, and loosen phlegm
and bronchial
secretions, so you can breathe easily.*
- Aller-Response
by Source Naturals
Aller-Response is a Bio-Aligned Formula designed to
modulate immune system response. It supports
multiple body systems such as immunity, histamine
regulation, adrenal stress response, mucous
membranes, and prostaglandin metabolism.
Aller-Response features quercetin, ginkgo and
bromelain, a pineapple enzyme. Quercetin has
demonstrated its capability to inhibit the
release of histamines and Ginkgo inhibits
platelet-activating factor, a substance that
stimulates histamine release from immune cells.*

Ephedra...is it back? Part 2 |
|
|
|
As the season heats up, more and more of us start to
think about trimming down for the beach or that
poolside barbeque with the neighbors. Diet and
exercise are undoubtedly the cornerstones of any
weight-loss plan, but adding supplements to your
toolbox can dramatically increase the rate at which
goals are realized. Ephedra has been making the news
for over a year now and has been widely publicized
as a weight-loss wonder-drug, albeit with some side
effects.
As we reported back in July
of 2005, Discount Nutrition - Buckhead has taken
the position that while lawyers and the FDA
deliberate on a final ruling regarding the return of
ephedra supplements to the marketplace, we currently
are not selling products that contain any dose of
ephedra and ephedra alkaloids. Though some area
retailers continue to sell ephedra despite the
possible
legal consequences and FDA
seizures of products containing ephedra,
Discount Nutrition – Buckhead stands by our original
decision in the exclusion of ephedra from our
product offerings.
