Digestive System (137)

Product description: Also known as octanoic acid, it belongs to the group of medium chain triglycerides (MCTs) Distinguished by its strong antifungal properties Supports digestive health and provides energy support In a daily rush full of challenges and responsibilities, we often lack the time to take full care of our health, including our digestive system, which plays a key role in our daily functioning. With this in mind, the dietary supplement Caprylic Acid 600 mg 100 Softgels  from Now Foods was created. Caprylic acid, also known as octanoic acid, is an eight-carbon saturated fatty acid that belongs to the medium chain triglyceride (MCT) group. It is naturally found in vegetable fats such as coconut oil and palm kernel oil, as well as in smaller amounts in cow's, goat's and human milk. Unlike long-chain fatty acids, which require a more complex digestion process, caprylic acid is rapidly transported to the liver, where it is converted to energy by beta-oxidation. This makes it a readily available and efficient source of energy, particularly valued in ketogenic diets, which rely on the use of fats as the body's main fuel.What makes caprylic acid so special?First and foremost, its strong antifungal properties, which help to reduce unwanted yeasts such as Candida albicans. As a result, it supports a healthy balance of intestinal microflora, which is crucial for the proper functioning of the digestive and immune systems. In addition, caprylic acid supports the regeneration of the intestinal epithelium. Its anti-inflammatory action helps to alleviate inflammation in the gut, which translates into improved overall wellbeing and digestive comfort. Also not to be forgotten is its ability to provide energy quickly. It is this characteristic that makes caprylic acid particularly appreciated by athletes and physically active people who need effective and natural sources of energy during intense exercise. Its easy absorption and versatile action make it an excellent support for both body and mind.Reach for caprylic acid - give your body the support it deserves!

Product description: Contains Psyllium husks which are an excellent source of fibre Promotes regularity of bowel movements and a feeling of satiety Supports cardiovascular health Maintaining a feeling of lightness and comfort in the stomach is often an important part of our overall well-being. The dietary supplement Organic Psyllium Husk Powder 12 oz (340 g) from Now Foods is designed to support these important aspects! Psyllium husks are first and foremost an excellent source of fibre. Fibre, being a plant-based substance, is not digested by our bodies but plays a key role in maintaining a healthy digestive system. Although fibre is essential for proper body composition, many people do not consume it in sufficient quantities. To help make this possible, psyllium is now available in convenient powder form, allowing you to add it to your favourite beverage and thus simply incorporate it into your daily life. A definite advantage of our formula is that it offers organic psyllium husks, which means that the product is sourced from organic cultivation that meets the highest standards, including no use of pesticides or artificial fertilisers.Psyllium is a real treasure trove of health for the digestive system. Thanks to their high fibre content, they support regularity of bowel movements and have been appreciated for years as a natural bowel cleanser. Psyllium is also often recommended for people wishing to manage their weight, especially during weight loss. This is because an adequate amount of fibre in the diet promotes feelings of satiety, making it easier to control appetite. What's more, these husks support cardiovascular health, providing valuable support in maintaining healthy cholesterol levels and regulating blood sugar and lipid levels, benefiting overall cardiovascular health.Reach for psyllium and provide your body with the highest level of support!
