Healthy brains contain high amounts of the omega-3 fatty acid DHA. DHA comprises 40-50% of brain tissue and 60% of eye tissue. DHA is the major polyunsaturated fatty acid in the adult brain, and it is essential for healthy
neurodevelopment. DHA assists in the transmission of signals between brain cells. Maintaining optimal DHA levels helps to maintain mental and cognitive function. Studies have shown that low levels of DHA are linked to poor memory function. DHA is also central to brain and vision development in unborn children and infants.

Fish oil is a source of the omega-3 fatty acids. Fatty acids are incorporated into every cell membrane in the body, in the form of compounds called phospholipids. Cell membranes play the vital role of regulating what goes into, and what comes out of each cell. The integrity and fluidity of the cell membrane is determined by the type of phospholipid that is available for the body to use. Cell membranes made up mainly of phospholipids derived from polyunsaturated fatty acids are more fluid and function better than cell membranes made up of saturated fat or trans-fatty
acids.

Cape aloes and cascara are the laxative herbs in this formula. The active constituents of these herbs are anthraquinone glycosides. These constituents stimulate peristalsis, which is the contraction of the smooth muscle of the bowel. This action promotes evacuation and thus helps to relieve
constipation. Ginger, cardamom and peppermint are carminative herbs. Carminatives help to relieve bloating (by expelling intestinal gas) and spasms, and so can help to relieve the discomfort associated with constipation. They can also help to avoid the griping pain that is often associated with laxative use.

Symptoms of menopause are usually due to alterations in hormone levels, particularly the decline in oestrogen levels. PhytoLife® is a source of phytoestrogens, which are compounds that have an oestrogen-like action in the body. Some of the active compounds found in soya beans are the phytoestrogens known as isoflavones. The chemical structure of the isoflavones in soy is similar to the oestrogen found in the body. In post-menopausal women the rate of bone loss is generally 1-2 per cent per year. Calcium has been included in Phytolife® for strong, healthy bones.
