5-HTP is short for 5-Hydroxytryptophan, and it is the immediate amino acid precursor to serotonin, meaning that 5-HTP is converted in the body into serotonin, an important neurotransmitter (chemical messenger) involved in regulating numerous bodily functions, in particular brain and nerve function. Serotonin may also be converted in the body to melatonin, an important neurotransmitter that regulates the sleep-wake cycle.
5-HTP is derived from the amino acid tryptophan. Tryptophan is an essential amino acid found in food, principally in meat and dairy products, but only about 3% of oral tryptophan is converted into serotonin. 70% of oral 5-HTP, on the other hand, is converted into serotonin, but is not found in food. Instead, supplemental 5-HTP is naturally sourced from the seeds of the plant Griffonia simplicifolia.
If you are taking antidepressant medication please do not take 5-HTP unless under supervision by your doctor or qualified medical professional.

Patented emulsified Oil of Oregano in sustained release form. Biotics Research Corporation is widely recognised for its emulsified fat-soluble nutrients and other lipids, microemulsified with the practical objective of increased absorption and bioavailability. This technology has now been applied to the oil of oregano. By emulsifying oregano extracts, the effective surface area of the oil is dramatically increased.
An additional step was to apply a sustained release mechanism to A.D.P., assuring a slow release throughout the digestive tract. The combined effect of emulsification and sustained release is to enhance intestinal exposure to the essential oil.
Unwelcome guests in the human gastrointestinal tract are more common and have a much greater negative impact on health than is commonly recognised. These bugs range from bacteria and yeasts to parasites and amoebas, hence the need to address these imbalances with anti-microbial agents. Nature contains many different anti-microbials and oregano oil extract, containing the active ingredient of carvacrol, is one of these. It has a broad range of action addressing many different species including B. Hominis but the list includes and is not limited to: Listeria monocytogenes, Giardia lamblia, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli O:157:H7, Yersinia enterocolitica, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Aspergillus niger, Geotrichum (yeast), Rhodotorula (yeast), Entamoeba hartmanni, Entamoeba histolytica, Endolimax nana.

Adreset is a herbal blend designed to support energy and vitality. It provides potent standardised extracts of the ‘adaptogenic’ herbs ginseng, rhodiola and cordyceps.
Adaptogenic herbs may help a person “adapt” to their environment and help to normalise and regulate the body’s functioning.
Adreset provides Asian Ginseng Root (Panax Ginseng), standardised to 16mg ginsenosides, the active compounds in ginseng. Adreset also delivers a standardised extract of cordyceps mycelium, and rhodiola root extract standardised to 3% rosavins (1.5mg) and to 1% (0.5mg) salidroisde.
Asian or Korean ginseng root (Panax Ginseng) has a very extensive history of use throughout Asia and is thought to promote alertness and vitality, and counteract fatigue. It may also support cognitive function and the normal functioning of the immune system.
Rhodiola (Rhodiola rosea) is another powerful and fast-acting adaptogenic herb that has been used traditionally for centuries. Based on traditional use, it is thought to contribute to normal blood circulation which in turn is associated with cognitive performance and reactivity. Rhodiola may also support the nervous system.
Adreset also contains cordyceps (Cordyceps sinensis), standardised to the active compound cordycepic acid. Cordyceps has a long history of use in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), and has often been compared to the ginsengs.

The Allimed® 100 capsule pack provides a month's supply of stabilised allicin What is allicin? When fresh garlic is cut or crushed, an amino acid, allicin, combines with an enzyme, allinase and a chemical reaction starts. The first compound that is formed is Allicin. Allicin, generated from fresh garlic, changes into a series of other sulphur compounds, known as thiosulphinates. Allicin is described as the 'mother' substance of garlic, which is responsible for the majority of its remarkable properties.

Protects the body against free radical damage and protects cells and tissues. Hypoallergenic. Gluten and casein free. Capsules are plant based. Ultra Tested®. Kirkman’s Alpha Lipoic Acid is a powerful and versatile antioxidant that helps protect the body against free radical damage and, as a result, is a protector of many types of cells and tissues. It also helps increase glutathione production, which helps in detoxification processes in the body.
This is a hypoallergenic formulation specially designed for individuals with special requirements and sensitivities. Each capsule contains 25 mg of alpha lipoic acid.
Alpha lipoic acid is a disulfide compound also known as thioctic acid. Lipoic Acid is a unique antioxidant in that it is both fat- and water-soluble. Other well-known antioxidants can only function within their soluble media, such as vitamin E in fatty membranes of cells and vitamin C in watery portions of cells. Because of its dual solubility, lipoic acid can function in both fatty and aqueous phases of the cell. This is significant and makes lipoic acid a complete antioxidant capable of defending against a wide variety of invading free radicals.
Alpha lipoic acid has both sulfur atoms and carboxyl groups in its chemical structure, making it a very reactive compound. Alpha lipoic acid is converted into the reduced form, dihydrolipoic acid, inside of cells, and dihydrolipoic acid possesses two sulfhydryl groups.
Alpha lipoic acid is found naturally in foods such as spinach, broccoli, tomato, liver, heart and animal muscle tissue. Its bioavailability from food may be limited, however, because it is bound to a protein called "lipoyllysine.” Preliminary research suggests that the lipoic acid found in supplements may be more biologically active than lipoic acid bound to this protein in food. Kirkman’s Alpha Lipoic Acid capsules can be swallowed or the contents of the capsules mixed in food or beverages.
It is important to use a high quality lipoic acid to get the desired effects. There is a lot of poor quality product available in the United States, which may not be pure or fully potent, so it is important to trust your supplier of lipoic acid to deliver high product quality. Kirkman® uses only the highest quality lipoic acid available.

Professional-strength water and lipid soluble nutritional support
Alpha Lipoic Acid 600 MG provides Lipoic Acid, which is uniquely water and lipid soluble for broad-spectrum nutritional support. Lipoic Acid is an endogenous molecule involved in several metabolic functions and has been subject to considerable clinical research. Optimal energy and nerve health Promotes metabolic energy production Helps maintain healthy glucose metabolism Supports nerve cell health Water and fat solubility provides exceptional versatility as an antioxidant Verifiable Science Alpha lipoic acid is both water and fat soluble which allows it to function in almost any part of the body as an antioxidant. A key component of the metabolic process, alpha lipoic acid produces energy in muscles and directs calories into energy production.1 In addition, it helps maintain healthy glucose metabolism, supports the nervous system and provides nutritional support for healthy liver function.2 In one study, alpha lipoic acid decreased serum lactate and pyruvate and promoted healthy glucose metabolism in lean and overweight individuals.3 Alpha lipoic acid supported nerve health in subjects who participated in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter trial.4 The ability of alpha lipoic acid to modulate nitric oxide metabolite activity and to promote healthy microcirculation accounted for its ability to promote nerve cell health in two separate studies.
