THE VH BUZZ!

Here are our top supplements this edition…

Femergy, by Better You, £14.86 for 60 vegicaps (£14.12 with your VH insider discount).  Jo’s crusade to tell the world about the benefits of this herbal combo (Peruvian maca, Brazilian ginseng plus gingkho biloba) is unstoppable.  She says:  ‘It's a flipping miracle-worker.  Two days in a row recently I had to leave the house in a rush and - slapped wrists - forgot to take my supplements before I left.  Result:  knackered all day.  Today, woke up, remembered to take Femergy - and feel like a little hoppy (not to mention happy) bunny all day long.'  

Ideal Omega 3, by Ideal Omega, £31.99 for 90 capsules (£30.39 to you).  Basically, Sarah thinks everyone should take an Omega-3 (even if you eat oily fish every week) because of its extraordinary and proven benefits for body, brain, mood and not least skin, hair and nails (lets get the beauty bit in there).  Shabir Daya, the pharmacist at Victoria Health (who recently got rave reviews in Vogue) reckons this is currently one of the most impressive products, surpassing the highest standards for purity and excellence.   Take one daily. 

Sage Complex, by Food Science of Vermont, £23.55 for 90 capsules (£22.37 after your discount).  This cornucopia of oestrogenic herbs may help combat menopausal symptoms including hot flushes, night sweats and vaginal dryness.   

And some other irresistible life-enhancers you really shouldn’t live without…!  

Shakti Light Acupressure Mat, £44 (£41.80 when you take advantage of your discount).  OK, so you might think you’d never volunteer to lie on something that describes itself as ‘a bed of nails’ – but we promise you do!  Sarah rather thinks she was the very first to discover this Swedish item (which was featured on the BBC News and has won awards like it’s going out of style):  it is actually a mat studded with lots of little plastic pointy bits.  You lie on it for say 15 minutes, with a t-shirt on they suggest to start with, and extraordinarily you rise up afterwards feeling completely relaxed and calm. Great before bed, or first thing in the morning if you want to swing into the day feeling in control of the universe! 

Valerie Beverly Hills Beige Fix Stick, £20 (£19 with your discount).  Use this smart stick, with age-fighting vitamins C and E, to stop lipstick bleeding round your mouth – so not a good look – and/or blend blend blend it into lines.  We like it for those naughty vertical frown lines - just remember to apply it to lines with a very light touch.  

Miracle Magic – The Duo Pack (Seven Wonders Miracle Lotion and Miracle Oil, by Century Systems, together £20 (sorry, no extra discount on this as it’s fabulously slashed already – the duo’s worth £27.90 so this is a serious bargain!)  Well they just ARE miracle products, end of story.  (In such terribly old-fashioned packaging, they have to be!)  Sarah rather thinks Miracle Lotion, with aloe vera, 14 herbs and sweet almond and olive oils, would be her Desert Island luxury to smooth on parched limbs.  And now with Miracle Oil, with seven oils and masses of herbs, which you can use on hair, cuticles, in your bath, for anything really – you have no excuse not to be the softest glossiest bunnies ever!
