It is now widely understood by the medical & scientific communities that many of our health problems are caused by 'damaged' fats created through a process called 'hydrogenation'. This heat process used to create vegetable oils, particularly margarines, is known to have a detrimental effect on health, & has been associated with serious conditions like heart disease. Nature's Way Coconut Oil does not contain any hydrogenated fats
- just pure, expeller pressed oil. A rich source of medium-chain fatty acids Another unique feature of coconut oil is that it is made up of medium-chain fatty acids. Most vegetable or seed oils are made up of long chain fatty acids, which consist of large molecules that your body finds difficult to break down, resulting in them being stored largely as fat. The fatty acids in coconut oil however, are much smaller, so they are more easily broken down & utilised as an energy source. This means that the fat in coconut oil is used for immediate energy, rather than being stored as fat in your body! A cold pressed, unrefined food-grade oil Nature’s Way Coconut Oil is ‘cold pressed’ by means of mechanical extraction so it does not contain any residue chemicals or solvent extracts, resulting in a premium quality food-grade oil. This virgin process preserves the quality & integrity of the fresh coconuts it is made from, & unlike refined coconut oils, avoids further heat processing, refining & bleaching which can rob the oil of certain beneficial vitamins & minerals. Nature’s Way Coconut Oil is also certified organic & does not contain any genetically modified ingredients.

5-HTP acts within the body as a raw material, used by some cells within the body to make the important neurotransmitter Serotonin. Therefore when looking at the benefits of 5-HTP we are in essence looking at the benefits of Serotonin. The properties of 5-HTP are centred around the fact that it is a direct precursor of serotonin. Serotonin is one of around twelve neurotransmitters & is also used by some cells outside the brain. The vast majority of the body’s Serotonin-using neurons are found within the intestinal tract, where Serotonin is used to help regulate peristalsis (waves of contraction that moves food along the digestive tract) & digestion. Benefits of 5-HTP: Depression
- the vast majority of studies on 5-HTP have focused on its use as a natural antidepressant with encouraging results. Insomnia
- Serotonin levels are very important in controlling our normal sleeping pattern & the use of 5-HTP has shown considerable benefits in cases of sleeping disturbances & insomnia. Anxiety
- an emotional state that is related to Serotonin disturbances. Improvements in the symptoms of anxiety, particularly panic attacks, have been noted when 5-HTP is used. Fibromyalgia
- people with fibromyalgia often show low levels of Serotonin in their blood. Appetite control & weight reduction
- overeating & low brain Serotonin levels are linked & studies have shown a reduction in food intake when 5-HTP is used & consequently a reduction in body weight. Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS)
- research carried out in the 1980s strongly links Serotonin levels with PMS.

Acetyl-L-Carnitine is a source of carnitine, a naturally occurring amino acid. In the body it is responsible for the transport of fatty acids into the mitochondria (the cell's powerhouses) where they are used to produce the energy rich chemicals that fuel the body. Although carnitine is actively taken up to into cells, different tissues appear to prefer different forms, for example the Myocardium (heart Muscle) prefers propionyl-L-carnitine. Acetyl-L-Carnitine occurs naturally in the human brain. The Acetyl part of the molecule is linked with acetylcholine (a chemical messenger required to transmit nerve impulses) which improves the brains ability to function & communicate with other organs. Acetyl-L-Carnitine appears to be the best form to take for brain health. ...
