Vitamins,Health Supplements and Herbal Remedies
Lamberts Vitamins
Lamberts products are excellent quality and I highly recommend them. I take them myself. Lamberts vitamins might be more expensive than some other vitamins but they use the highest quality product ingredients.
Weleda Arnica Ointment
Weleda Arnica Ointment is an excellent traditional herbal product which you apply to the skin to help reduce bruising after injury. Reducing the levels of bruising helps to minimise extra trauma to the area.
Healthy Direct
Healthy Direct have a good range of vitamin and health supplements. They also provide lots of information explaining each product - they don't just list the products and expect you to know what you want to buy.
Which products do my patients ask about a lot?
For Painful Joints
Glucosamine can help some people with arthritic and joint pain.
Cod liver oil is thought to help in lubricating joints and reducing friction which can help reduce pain and inflammation.
For the Immune System
Echinacea appears to help boost the immune system which helps prevent colds, flu and infections. Echinacea has some very favourable reviews.
Higher Nature
Higher Nature have a good range of good quality vitamins and supplements.
Glucosamine
Excellent range of glucosamine products which some people find useful in reducing joint pain with osteoarthritis.
Echinacea
For the immune system. Some people believe Echinacea can help prevent colds and flu.
Spa Health
SpaHealth sells vitamins, minerals, oils, herbal remedies and nutritional supplements.
Several patients have found Glucosamine useful in reducing joint pain in osteoarthritis, however it doesn't seem to work for everyone and not all patients get the level of relief they want. So what I suggest to patients is that they try it for a couple of months and see if it helps.
Can be useful in the maintenance of cartilage and in lubricating the joints.
