Vanessa Chalmers, writer for renown health and lifestyle website Healthista sat down to decide her 14 best supplements of 2017 last December, with a spectrum of potential candidates to choose from.

We were delighted to see that two of our most popular supplements made Healthista’s list which highlights their high quality and bioavailability.

When it came to the best omega-3 and probiotic supplements respectively, Vanessa chose BioCare^® Mega EPA and BioCare^® BioAcidophilus^® as her top choices.

Our Mega EPA is a powerful fish oil supplement made from pure fish oil and provides both DHA and EPA, free from detectable contaminates, using our “Multox” system for greater stability and quality.

BioAcidophilus’ LAB⁴ complex of bacteria is thoroughly tested and is both bile and acid resistant to ensure safety and efficacy in promoting healthy gut flora.

We were delighted to see a range of our winter care supplements reviewed by Erica Price on her blog, A Little Luxury for Me.

As an answer to a busy lifestyle full of challenges, which can often leave her feeling tired, Erica decided to try a variety of BioCare’s products to relieve her fatigue.

The result? “I have felt like I’ve had more energy”, Erica said, after trying BioCare^® Adult Multivitamins & Minerals, Zinc Citrate and Everyday BioAcidophilus^®. Another aspect she appreciated about our BioAcidophilus^® supplement was also its ability to remain stable for a greater period of time without having to be refrigerated which is achieved due to our “Multox” antioxidant system.

BioCare^® Zinc Citrate is also very easy to store and to take. Its water solubility allows it to be consumed as a lozenge, as well as a traditional tablet – making it simple to work into your diet.

Before December’s holiday season moved into full swing, MSN online asked renown nutritionists what people should eat when tending to a hangover. Manal Chouchane, one of our experienced Clinical Nutritionists and Nutritional Therapists, shared her advice on the topic.

In order to satisfy the craving experienced during a hangover for carbohydrates and foods rich in fat, she recommends a meal of guacamole on toast which features high quality fat, as well as coconut water for hydration and supplying the body with electrolyte balance.

Some portion of the unpleasantness from a hangover is caused by the body being depleted of essential vitamins and minerals. As Manal suggests, eating nutritious food is the best way to solve this. An alternative option to further support a balanced diet in providing a range of nutrients is a broad vitamin and mineral supplement, such as BioCare^® Adult Vitamins and Minerals.

In this February’s issue of Women’s Fitness, we were excited to see our very own Vegan Omega-3 supplement mentioned as part of an article about developing a strong physique, through a range of free-weight and barbell exercises.

When discussing supplements which could help boost training performance, BioCare^® Vegan Omega-3 was suggested by Women’s Health for its anti-inflammatory potential after a workout.

While many protein powders, sports bars and other nutritional products offer great vegan solutions, they often lack in the fatty acids required for muscle growth, development and maintenance which BioCare^® Vegan Omega-3 can provide.

The DHA and EPA in BioCare^® Vegan Omega-3 is extracted directly from algae, one of the few vegan sources of omega-3 oils and is approved by the Vegetarian Society; providing a great stock of essential fatty acids which contribute to the normal function of the heart, brain and eyes.

It can be challenging at times to persuade and help a child to eat a healthy diet. A fascinating article in The Daily Telegraph, published on the 13^th of January 2018, tackled the issue by suggesting a range of healthy and delicious snacks which children will enjoy, whilst being great for them too.

From ideas like wholegrain breads, vegetables and fruits, to egg frittatas and seed mixes; the Daily Telegraph has some great suggestions for parents to consider. At the end of the list, the author raised the question of multivitamins, and what might be an ideal choice to provide any nutrients missing from a child’s diet.

The author asked nutritionist Mary van der Westhuizen for her thoughts, and as a solution to this quandary she recommended BioCare^® Children’s Complete Complex.

As the Department of Health suggests that children over the age of 6 months are given a vitamin supplement containing at least vitamins A, C and D - BioCare^® Children’s Complex goes above and beyond, in containing an extensive range of nutrients to support healthy growth.
