Immune Support & More from Fungi!
Are you afraid of medicinal mushrooms?
Talk about mushrooms and some people conjure up an image of plucking strange, poisonous plants in the woods while others see a plate of edible delicacies. Thankfully, you can reap mushrooms; medicinal bounty without the worry or the work by simply picking a supplement at the store instead of in the forest! Mushrooms aren’t really plants since they lack chlorophyll and a plant structure of leaves, stem and roots. They belong to the fungus family of organisms. There are more than 10,000 kinds and several different categories, one of which is medicinal. Notable examples are reishi. , lion’s mane turkey tail, cordyceps and shitake.
How Do You Take 5-HTP for Fibromyalgia?
Posted by Margy on 12/31/2022 to
Fibromyalgia
This is an interesting question for several reasons. ONE. Fibromyalgia (FM) is different for each person with the diagnosis. Symptoms range from fatigue and light achiness to all over, intense pain. Other symptoms include poor sleep with next day brain fog, irritable bowel and/or bladder and intolerance to drafts, multiple chemicals and damp weather.
TWO. Symptoms change. For some, FM symptoms wax and wane and are unpredictable on a daily basis. For others, symptoms may get worse over time and with aging.
THREE. Yet a third reason is whether or not there is a co-existing condition. If you already have arthritis or another auto-immune disorder, it is difficult to know whether it is the FM or the “other” condition that is causing symptoms.
Yet, even with the complexity of FM, research has shown that treatment with 5-HTP is beneficial in reducing many of FM symptoms.

Hurray for the season of JOY! I hope you are shopping smart during the holidays. While I am all into retail therapy, I also recognize the need not to unbalance the budget while doing and feeling good about giving! As we hand over that magic plastic, consider one more gift on your list to yourself, the gift of health. Amidst the stress and skimping on sleep to get everything done, remember to take your supplements to both to keep up your energy and support your relaxation when it is time for you to unwind.Even though December is the last month of the year, anytime is a good time to take extra efforts to take care of yourself.

Oppose Durbin Bill S-4090 Now!

Supplement Safety
Politics are complicated. But here's why and how to add your voice to protect your rights to supplements.
As many of you know, we belong to a trade organization for our industry, The Natural Products Association (NPA). Part of our dues help support activist efforts in Washington. We need to oppose the latest slam on the supplement industry to protect our right to supplements without this proposed FDA control.
Senator Durbin, one of the co-sponsors of Bill S-4090 introduced on April 26, 2022, states the FDA “has the authority to regulate dietary supplements and take dangerous products off the market but it lacks the information to do so.” Therefore one aspect of the bill proposes a mandatory product listing to gain this “missing” information. NPA President and CEO Daniel Fabricant, Ph.D disagrees.
