What is Brahmi? Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri) is a herb with brain rejuvenating effects and is native to India, Australia, Africa and Europe. It is also known as Bacopa and Jalabrahmi. Best known for its ability to enhance memory and focus, Brahmi has been used in Ayurveda for centuries for managing various conditions such as stress, anxiety, asthma and epilepsy. Brahmi contains a large amount of bioactive, phytochemical compounds that work in synergy to give the herb antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and memory enhancing properties. The most important bioactive compounds in Brahmi are Bacoside A and B (dammarane-type triterpenoin saponins), alkaloids, and herpestine. Health Benefits in a Nutshell Works as an anti-oxidant Reduces inflammation Improves cognitive functions Improves memory and focus Reduces ADHD symptoms Calms and strengthens nervous system Reduces symptoms of anxiety and depression Reduces stress levels Health Benefits of Brahmi 1. Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri) contains many powerful antioxidant compounds that protects cells and tissues from the oxidative injury caused by free radicals. This oxidative damage is known to cause chronic inflammation and premature ageing at the cellular level. 2. Boosts brain function Brahmi is valued as one of the most effective herbs in Ayurveda for improving brain functions. It is known as a brain tonic that: Rejuvenates the brain Boosts cognitive functions such as learning, intellect, memory and focus Protects the tissues of nervous system from oxidative damage Reduces age-associated neural inflammation The leaves are a rich source of antioxidants, such as saponins (bacosides) that seem to be majorly responsible for all these benefits in boosting cognition and in strengthening overall mental health. It can be used by people of all ages to improve learning and memory. Human studies show promising results and provide evidence that Brahmi can be used to improve learning, retention, and memory. [1-3] Preliminary research also hints at its positive role in managing symptoms of Alzheimer's disease (AD). 3. May reduce ADHD symptoms Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a disorder with symptoms such as hyperactivity, inability to focus, low attention span and impulsive behaviour. Research has shown that Bacopa monnieri may help reduce ADHD symptoms such as impulsivity, inattentiveness and restless in children. [4-5] 4. Relieves stress and anxiety Prolonged periods of stress and anxiety can be detrimental to our physical and mental well-being. Chronic stress can aggravate as well as increase the risk of conditions such as depression, insomnia, heart disease, diabetes, obesity and asthma. It also weakens immunity, causes fatigue, upsets hormonal balance and triggers gastrointestinal disorders. Brahmi is an adaptogenic herb that helps the body cope with stress. As an adaptogen, Brahmi supports healthy immunity, restores balance and equilibrium in the body, reduces fatigue, nourishes adrenal functions and regulates stress hormones. Research suggests that Brahmi reduces symptoms of stress and anxiety by lowering the levels of stress hormone cortisol. Brahmi contains bacosides, powerful antioxidant compounds that are responsible for its anti-stress and anti-anxiety benefits. Brahmi also promotes healthy and sound sleep and can be a very effective in managing insomnia and fatigue.

SANUSq Botanique: Giloy (Tinospora Cordifolia) in vegetable capsules - 350 mg x 90 Boosts Immunity. Reduces inflammation Main ingredients: (per capsule) 350 mg organically grown Giloy (Tinospora Cordifolia) in vegetable capsules Suggested daily dosage: 3 capsules per day with food and water for at least 3 months or as directed by your healthcare professional. Storage: Refrigerate after opening. Use within 60 days. Keep well sealed. ------------------------------ Product Description 1,050mg of Giloy (Tinospora Cordifolia) per serving 90 vegetable capsules per bottle Non-GMO, 100% organic and pesticide free No additives or synthetic ingredients Screw top glass bottle Long used to help a wide range of issues, including fever, infections, diarrhea, and diabetes What is Giloy? Giloy is a deciduous climbing shrub with yellow flowers and heart-shaped leaves. It grows throughout India and is also found in China, Sri Lanka, Australia and Africa. In India, giloy goes by many names that reflect its powerful medicinal and therapeutic effects on the body. For example, it is known as 'Amrita', which literally means 'nectar of life' or 'root of immortality'. Another name of giloy is guduchi, which means one that protects the whole body. It is also known as giloe, which refers to the divine elixir that protects celestial beings from getting old. In a nutshell, giloy is a herb that is revered in Ayurveda for its ability to delay premature ageing and impart good health and longevity. T. cordifolia or giloy is a versatile herb and has been traditionally used for centuries in Ayurveda to treat various health conditions such as fever, infections, diabetes, diarrhea, digestive problems, skin problems, liver disorders and leprosy. While all parts of the plant have medical and therapeutic benefits, the stem is considered to possess extraordinary health benefits and is even approved for use in medicine by Ayurvedic Pharmacopoeia of India. [1] The stem is exceptionally rich in nutritional content and bioactive compounds such as alkaloids, glycosides, steroids, terpenoids, ligans, and polysaccharides. These compounds are responsible for the plant - anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, immunity-boosting, antibacterial, antiviral, anti-diabetic and antipyretic (that reduces fever) properties. Health Benefits in a Nutshell Anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory Boosts immunity Reduces fever naturally Beneficial in dengue fever, improves platelet count Anti-ageing Shows anti-allergic properties Helpful in allergic rhinitis Beneficial in asthma and respiratory infections Supports bone and joint health Regulates blood sugar levels Helpful in urinary tract infections    Health Benefits 1. Anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory Giloy is very rich in flavonoids, polyphenols and other bioactive compounds that have excellent anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. These antioxidant compounds help to fight free radicals, reduce oxidative stress, keep your cells and tissues healthy, and lower the risk of chronic degenerative diseases. In Ayurveda, giloy has been used to manage gouty arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis because of its anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties. 2. Boosts immunity and reduces allergy symptoms Giloy is an anti-inflammatory and an anti-pyretic herb that boosts immunity and improves the body's resistance against various kinds of infections. The herb has anti-allergic properties and it has been traditionally used for cough, cold and asthma. A study published in the Journal of Ethnobiology showed that giloy can be extremely useful in reducing the symptoms of allergic rhinitis, also known as hay fever. [2] In this study, giloy provided almost complete relief in allergic symptoms such as sneezing, nasal discharge, nasal obstruction and nasal pruritus (itching and congestion). 3. Anti-pyretic properties In Ayurveda, Giloy is considered one of the best medicines to manage various fevers and provides faster recovery in people suffering from chronic fever. It has anti-pyretic properties, which means it has the ability to reduce fever. It has been found immensely useful in dengue fever as it reduces inflammation, reduces fever, boosts immunity and also increases platelet count. 4. Regulates blood sugar levels Giloy may be useful in managing diabetes and this activity can be attributed to the presence of alkaloids, tannins, glycosides, flavonoids and saponins. Preliminary research suggests that giloy encourages the production of insulin and improves insulin sensitivity in the cells. With its anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, giloy may also help in managing diabetes associated complications such as wound healing [3], ulcers, retinopathy and kidney damage. A study in the International Journal of Research in Medical Sciences reported that Tinospora cordifolia works effectively as an add-on therapy in type-2 diabetes, without any adverse effect on the kidney and liver function tests. [4] 5. Reduces triglyceride levels Studies show that giloy may help reduce triglyceride levels [5-6]. Increased levels of triglycerides in the blood can increase the risk of heart disease, obesity, metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes. The stem of the giloy plant is a rich source of alkaloids (protoberberine), that help bring down triglyceride levels. Giloy also boosts the growth of healthy gut microbiota in patients with high cholesterol and triglyceride levels. [7] 6. Reduces stress and anxiety Giloy is an adaptogen, a rare class of herbs that helps the body adapt to stressors which can be emotional, physical, chemical and environmental. Giloy rejuvenates the body and increases its resistance to stress. Research shows that giloy can reduce stress, which helps in depression and in improving cognition and memory. [8] The study found that giloy increases norepinephrine (NE), serotonin and dopamine levels in the brain, the most likely mode of action behind its anti-depressant activity. 7. Removes toxins and helps in urinary infections   Giloy works as a diuretic and helps the body to get rid of toxins, which makes it useful in detoxifying blood. In addition, its ability to fight bacteria and to boost immunity means it can be used to manage urinary tract infections. Giloy also supports kidney health as it reduces the levels of urea in the blood. Other Health Benefits Helps in digestion Reduces signs of ageing Helps in respiratory disorders Supports heart health Supports liver health Precautions Giloy or Tinospora cordifolia is considered safe to consume and is not associated with any toxicity or major side effects. Not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women, or for women who are trying to conceive People who are taking medication for diabetes and or high blood pressure should consult their healthcare practitioner before taking giloy supplements in any form. People with pre-existing medical conditions, especially autoimmune disease like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, or Crohn's disease, should consult their healthcare practitioner before taking giloy supplements in any form.

SANUSq Botanique: Gokshura (Tribulus Terrestris) in vegetable capsules - 400 mg x 90 Men's health: Urinary Tract and Prostate Main ingredients: (per capsule) 400 mg organically grown Gokshura (Tribulus Terrestris) in vegetable capsules Suggested daily dosage: 3 capsules per day with food and water for at least 3 months or as directed by your healthcare professional. Storage: Refrigerate after opening. Use within 60 days. Keep well sealed. ------------------------------ Product Description 1,200mg of Gokshura (Tribulus Terrestris) per serving 90 vegetable capsules per bottle Non-GMO, 100% organic and pesticide free No additives or synthetic ingredients Screw top glass bottle What is Gokshura? Gokshura, also known as Tribulus Terrestris, is a plant that has been used for centuries in the Ayurvedic system of medicine as a urinary tonic, diuretic, and aphrodisiac. The root and fruits of gokshura have been used to manage various health problems such as urinary tract disorders, erectile dysfunction, polyuria, low testosterone levels, prostate gland problems and kidney stones. Gokshura grows in India, Africa, Australia and southern Europe. It also goes by other names such as gokhru, caltrops, cat's head, devil's weed and puncture vine. Gokshura contains a variety of bioactive compounds that work as antioxidants, and are responsible for the plant's medicinal and therapeutic actions such as anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, diuretic, pain-relieving and anti-spasmodic. Some of these bioactive compounds include steroidal saponins, flavonoids, glycosides and alkaloids. [1-2] Health Benefits in a Nutshell Useful in urinary tract disorders Supports prostate health Boosts energy Prevents kidney stones Supports heart health Good for gout and arthritis Strengthens muscles Health Benefits of Gokshura 1. Works as an antioxidant Gokshura contains a number of phytochemicals (flavonoid, tannin, and phenolic acids) that have antioxidant properties. Your body relies on internal and external sources of antioxidants to fight oxidative stress and reduce inflammation. Chronic state of oxidative damage and inflammation in the body can lead to many serious health problems such as heart disease, diabetes, arthritis and even cancer. 2. Promotes urinary tract and prostate gland health Gokshura is a very effective herbal supplement for supporting bladder health, preventing urinary infections and nourishing the genito-urinary system. Gokshura may help relieve many problems related to urinary health such as painful and frequent urination (dysuria), urinary incontinence, urgent need to urinate even when the bladder is not full, and burning sensation during urination. It also clears obstructions in the urinary tract, cleanses the body of toxins and excess fluid, and nourishes the urinary system. Certain bioactive compounds found in gokshura have anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties and that is what make gokshura supplements beneficial in preventing urinary infections and supporting the health of your urinary tract. Gokshura supplements is helpful in managing symptoms associated with prostate gland disorders such as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a severe but common prostate illness that affects men over 40 and causes enlargement of prostate. BPH causes blockage in the urethra, leading to restricted or weak flow of urine and other painful symptoms such as painful urination and difficulty passing urine. It also impacts sexual functions. As a powerful diuretic, gokshura improves the production and flow of urine. This reduces the symptoms associated with an enlarged prostate. By increasing urinary output, gokshura also maintains healthy a fluid balance in the body. 3. Improves sexual wellness and libido There is growing evidence that gokshura may boost libido (sexual desire) and manage sexual problems in women and men, and particularly in post-menopausal women. [3-7] It is not yet known how Tribulus Terrestris actually works in improving sexual health and sexual functions such as libido and satisfaction but emerging evidence suggests the involvement of many modes of action, including its ability to increase hormones that regulate sexual functions.   4. For healthy kidney functions Gokshura supports kidney health in a number of ways. It works as a diuretic, which means it increases the production of urine and helps the body remove extra water and salt from the body through urine. It gets rid of excess uric acid, prevents the formation of kidney stones, and may even help in reducing the size of kidney stones. Gokshura has lithotriptic properties, which means it can help break and dissolve stones. And since it helps remove uric acid, it is effective in gout, where excess deposits of uric acid crystals in the joints cause pain and inflammation.   5. May increase athletic performance Gokshura supplements are very popular among body builders and athletes for their purported benefits in improving exercise performance and increasing muscle mass. But research in this field is not very clear. However, there is evidence that taking gokshura may reduce muscle damage and increase anaerobic performance. [8] While there is not much scientific evidence, the ayurvedic system of medicine supports that gokshura helps improve energy and vitality. Other health benefits Helpful in migraine May help in arthritis and good for gout Supports heart health May reduce blood sugar levels Reduces inflammation May help in PCOS May help in piles Improves skin health Precautions Gokshura is considered safe to consume and is not associated with any major side effects. It may cause upset stomach, abdominal cramps and rashes in some people. Not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women, or for women who are trying to conceive People who are taking medication for diabetes and or high blood pressure should consult their healthcare practitioner before taking gokshura supplements in any form. People with pre-existing medical conditions such as cancer, prostate disorders and kidney disorders should consult their healthcare practitioner before taking gokshura supplements in any form.

SANUSq Botanique: Shallaki (Boswellia Serrata) in vegetable capsules - 350 mg x 90 Supports bone and joint health Main ingredients: (per capsule) 350 mg organically grown Shallaki in vegetable capsules Suggested daily dosage: 3 capsules per day with food and water for at least 3 months or as directed by your healthcare professional. Storage: Refrigerate after opening. Use within 60 days. Keep well sealed. ------------------------------ Product Description 1,050mg of Shallaki (Boswellia Serata) per serving 90 vegetable capsules per bottle Non-GMO, 100% organic and pesticide free No additives or synthetic ingredients Screw top glass bottle Powerful anti-inflammatory properties What is Shallaki? Shallaki or Boswellia serrata is a tropical plant that grows in India, the Middle East and North Africa. The gum resin of shallaki is highly prized in Ayurveda and is widely used to manage conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, skin diseases, Crohn's disease and other inflammatory conditions. Health Benefits in a Nutshell Reduces pain and inflammation Improves symptoms in osteoarthritis Beneficial in rheumatoid arthritis Reduces symptoms of ulcerative colitis Provides relief in asthma symptoms Health Benefits 1. Reduces symptoms in arthritis Studies show that shallaki reduces symptoms associated with osteoarthritis, the most common form of arthritis where degradation of cartilage causes pain, stiffness and reduced function in the joints. Shallaki helps reduce these symptoms and improves joint function. It has been found to be particularly useful in the osteoarthritis of the knee, which is mainly treated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) and specific (COX-2) cyclooxygenase II inhibitors. These drugs cause severe complications including gastrointestinal bleeding with no positive effect on cartilage repair. [1] Boswellic acids, one of the main biologically active ingredients in shallaki, have pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory properties. One such boswellic acid (AKBA) blocks an enzyme 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) that creates inflammation in joints and other tissues. It has been found that boswellic acids also reduce degradation of glycosaminoglycans, compounds that reduce inflammation, protect cartilage from breaking down and even promote new cartilage formation. Shallaki also improves symptoms in rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune condition where chronic inflammation destroys bone and cartilage and causes pain, swelling and deformity in the joints. 2. Effective in inflammatory bowel disease Boswellic acids in shallaki blocks the production of enzyme 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX), which is involved in the synthesis of leukotrienes, pro-inflammatory molecules that are directly involved in creating chronic inflammation in the gut. Inflammatory bowel diseases such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are conventionally treated with the help of corticosteroids, antibiotics, immunosuppressants and biological agents. Prolonged use of these drugs can cause serious side effects. Shallaki, due to the presence of boswellic acids, reduces inflammation in the gut and this makes it useful in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Reduced inflammation leads to better nutrient absorption and reduced risk of gastric ulcers.   3. Reduces symptoms in asthma Leukotrienes also play a critical role in allergies and asthma. These inflammation-promoting molecules are responsible for constricting the airway muscles and triggering asthma attacks. Shallaki with its rich boswellic acid content reduces the production of leukotrienes (by supressing 5-lipoxygenase enzyme).  Shallaki also removes excess mucus from the lungs and provides relief in the symptoms of asthma. Precautions While moderate use of Shallaki supplements is considered safe with no side effects, excessive consumption can cause gastrointestinal problems such as bloating, abdominal cramps, diarrhoea and nausea. It can also cause skin rash. Not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women, or for women who are trying to conceive. People who are taking immunosuppressants, or medications for depression and anxiety should avoid shallaki supplements. People with pre-existing medical conditions should consult their healthcare practitioner before taking shallaki supplements in any form. References: 1.    Yu et al.

SANUSq Botanique: Shatavari (Asparagus Racemosus) in vegetable capsules -  400 mg x 90 Helps to maintain women's health Main ingredients: (per capsule)  400 mg organically grown Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus) in vegetable capsules Suggested daily dosage: 3 capsules per day with food and water for at least 3 months or as directed by your healthcare professional. Storage: Refrigerate after opening. Use within 60 days. Keep well sealed. ------------------------------ Product Description 1,200mg of Shatavari (Asparagus Racemosus) per serving 90 vegetable capsules per bottle Non-GMO, 100% organic and pesticide free No additives or synthetic ingredients Screw top glass bottle Hormone balancing properties Reduces symptoms of menopause What is Shatavari? Shatavari is a plant found throughout India and its dried roots are used for its medicinal and therapeutic benefits. In ayurvedic system of medicine, it is considered as a general tonic for health, and particularly useful for female reproductive health. The root of shatavari has been traditionally used in inflammation, infectious diseases, gastric ulcers, and in improving women's health and boosting fertility in women. This rejuvenating herb is also known as "Queen of Herbs" and is mostly known for its nourishing role in female's health problems. Shatavari is an adaptogen, meaning it helps manage stress, supports adrenal glands, corrects hormonal imbalances and boosts immunity. One of the most important bioactive compounds present in the roots of shatavari are steroidal saponins (or Shatavarins). Health Benefits in a Nutshell Works as a tonic for women Improves reproductive health in women Maintains healthy hormonal balance Beneficial for menopausal women Helps in endometriosis Improves bone health  Relieves PMS symptoms Regulates periods Helpful in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) Reduces stress and anxiety   Health Benefits 1. Improves reproductive health in women Shatavari is known as a female tonic that is very effective in supporting and nourishing the female reproductive system, from puberty to menopause. It has been traditionally used for centuries to maintain hormonal balance across all ages, improve the production of breast milk in lactating women, boost fertility and vitality in women, and reduce symptoms of PMS and menopause. Shatavari powder made from the roots has been found very effective in conditions such as endometriosis (where the tissue lining the uterus starts to grow outside the uterus, causing pain, irregular periods and fertility problems), osteoporosis and polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and infertility. 2. Works as an antioxidant in the body The root of shatavari plant contains a number of antioxidant compounds, such as racemofuran, asparagine A, and racemose. It is believed that any kind of stress (psychological, physical and physiological) increases the production of free radicals, leading to oxidative damage and reproductive health disorders in women including infertility, hormonal imbalances, poor quality of eggs and PCOS. Research suggests that one of the possible mechanisms through which shatavari may work in improving women's reproductive health is by reducing oxidative stress and increasing antioxidant status of the body. [1] 3. Improves lactation Shatavari has galactagogue properties, meaning it can improve the production of breast milk in nursing women. Shatavari contains steroidal saponins and increases the production of the hormone prolactin, properties that are believed to boost breast milk production. 4. Helps in managing menopause symptoms Shatavari is an adaptogen that cools the body and supports hormonal balance in women, both during menstruation and menopause. The herb is rich in phytoestrogens, plant based bioactive compounds with oestrogen like properties. Small scale studies show that shatavari may help manage symptoms, such as hot flushes and night sweats in menopausal women. It supports bone health and may reduce the risk of osteoporosis, a well-known risk in post-menopausal women. Shatavari also moistens tissues, which helps reduce vaginal dryness in menopausal women.    5. Helpful in menstrual problems Shatavari is cooling and nourishing in nature and balances hormones.  Shatavari supplements are known to be immensely beneficial in reducing the symptoms associated with premenstrual syndrome (PMS), such as menstrual cramps. Known to improve strength, vitality and fertility in women, shatavari is also useful in irregular periods. It regulates the menstrual cycle, and reduces abnormal or heavy bleeding. It is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, that makes this plant useful in reducing fatigue and weakness in women. 6. Reducing symptoms of PCOS Shatavari is a very promising herb when it comes to managing Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and its symptoms such as irregular periods, abnormal blood flow, poor mood and hot flushes. Shatavari corrects hormonal imbalances, the root cause of PCOS. It is even used to prevent the production of new cysts. 7. Nourishes the digestive tract While shatavari is considered to be a nourishing and rejuvenating herb for women's reproductive system, it also soothes the digestive tract. In Ayurveda, shatavari is used to heal gastric ulcers, and research suggests that it increases the secretion of mucus in the stomach and also reduces the levels of acids, reducing acidity in the stomach. Other health benefits May help in alcohol withdrawal Helps reduce anxiety May help reduce kidney stones May help manage type 2 diabetes Reduces hair loss Precautions Shatavari or A. racemosus is known to be completely safe for long-term use. Do not exceed recommended dosage and always consult your healthcare practitioner before you start taking shatavari in any form. Shatavari can cause allergic reactions, such as rash, itchy skin, itchy eyes and trouble breathing, in some people. Those who are allergic to asparagus should avoid taking shatavari supplements.   Anyone taking diuretic medication should avoid taking shatavari supplements. People taking medications or herbal remedies to lower blood sugar should refrain from taking shatavari. Not recommended for those with oestrogen sensitivities. Not recommend for people with asthma and congestion. Shatavari supplements can cause weight gain. References: 1.    Pandey et al.
