New Roots Digestive Enzymes, Pancreatic enzymes are the foundation for the digestion and absorption of the food we eat. The aging process and the various diseases that afflict the pancreas can drastically reduce the production of these enzymes and lead to bloating, gas, and feeling of fullness that persist due to impaired digestion. Each capsule of New Roots Herbal’s Digestive Enzymes is formulated with protease, amylase, and lipase to help digest protein, carbohydrates, and fat, respectively.
This pure porcine-sourced pancreatin 4× (four times the strength) is bolstered with betaine hydrochloride, ox bile salts, papain (sourced from papaya), and pepsin for a maximum intestinal digestive breakdown of the food we eat. This formula is particularly useful for people with low digestive enzyme levels.

Liver formula nutritionally supports the liver’s ability to maintain normal liver function. The nutrients in Liver have shown positive effects in treating nearly every known form of liver disease due to their ability to inhibit the factors responsible for liver damage. These nutrients have tonic properties aiding the spleen, pancreas, and kidneys.
Liver also helps dissolve kidney and gallbladder stones, stimulates the liver cell reproduction, and is good for hepatitis, jaundice, anaemia, acne, and skin conditions.
A proper functioning liver will result in beautiful, young-looking skin, free from blemishes and age spots, as it has a large impact on the health of your skin, and by a clearer vision, as the health of the eyes is dependent on the health of the liver.
Other nutrients in Liver act as potent antioxidants, inhibiting lipid peroxidation in liver cells. They also contain water-soluble peptides rich in methionine; this sulfur-containing amino acid has strong antioxidant properties that detoxify the liver, aiding it in the process of rejuvenation.
We’ve formulated Livere as a complete formula to help support liver function, that way your liver can continue its job: helping eliminate depression, headaches, and unhealthy skin due to excessive toxins.

New Roots Ginger, Ginger is one of the most widely used roots, both for culinary purposes and for medicinal ones. Recent medical studies have confirmed the ancient uses of ginger as a carminative, cholagogues, antitussive, and diaphoretic, as well as to help the absorption of other remedies throughout the body.
Most of the medicinal effects of ginger appear to be due to its pungent components, which are standardized in our capsules. Recent research published in The Lancet and other prestigious journals have confirmed the traditional uses for ginger; ginger was found more effective than drugs at treating motion sickness and nausea. Ginger is able to calm the stomach, promote bile flow, and improve the appetite. Ginger is also known for its expectorant action on the upper respiratory tract, suppressing coughs, and encouraging the release of mucus and phlegm. With its diaphoretic action, promoting sweating and increasing circulation, it is additionally useful for colds and low-grade fevers. Ginger tea has long been a standard remedy for sore throats, colds, and flu. Recent studies have found that ginger lowers blood cholesterol and reduces blood clotting. The pungent compound gingerol has been found to have a structure similar to that of the well-known anticoagulant aspirin, which may explain the similar effect that the two compounds have on prostaglandins. Ginger is also a very effective antibiotic agent and a strong antioxidant.
Ginger is used for nausea, vomiting, motion sickness, vertigo, morning sickness, loss of appetite, stomach ache, dyspepsia, flatulence, indigestion, bile flow, colds, coughs, influenza, fevers, and high cholesterol, as well as an antioxidant, as an anticoagulant, and to thin the blood.

New Roots Chlorella, Chlorella is often referred to as “the perfect food.” Our certified organic, broken-cell Chlorella is a rich source of amino acids, fiber, nucleic acids, vitamins, and minerals. Chlorella is a natural alternative to the overprocessed and refined foods that are often subsequently enriched with synthetic vitamins and minerals, only to be marketed as “new and improved.”
Chlorella is a unicellular, deep-green microalga recognized as one of the original and most nutritionally complete food sources available to humans.
Chlorella is an excellent source of protein, and a natural source of calcium, vitamins, and the minerals magnesium and zinc, which our regular diets are often depleted of.
The benefits of Chlorella for immune system function, digestion, and cholesterol management, as well as for cognitive and metabolic functions, make it an excellent supplement to meet the nutritional needs of our modern lifestyle.
New Roots Herbal’s certified organic, broken-cell Chlorella pyrenoidosa is milled for maximum digestibility and assimilation of this natural, nutritional powerhouse.

Vitamin E is one of the great fat-soluble antioxidants; it is able to go where ordinary water-soluble antioxidants cannot. Vitamin E helps stop oxygen in red blood cells from turning into harmful peroxides. As well, it protects other vitamins from oxidation in the digestive tract.
Most vitamin E supplements contain only dalphatocopherol, and often the synthetic form; at New Roots Herbal, there is much more to vitamin E than dalphatocopherol—there are eight compounds that make up the vitamin E family; four tocopherols and four tocotrienols, extracted from vegetable oils that are present in their natural, fully active, unesterified form. Our food contains all eight compounds, and this is the form our bodies have been processing since the beginning of our time.
The eight members of the vitamin E family have some functions that are similar, and other functions that are completely different. For example, gamma-tocopherol has a greater ability to detoxify nitrogen radicals that are associated with neurological disease, inflammation, and prostate cancer.
New Roots Herbal’s Vitamin E8 is sourced from GMOfree sources. This natural, comprehensive vitamin E supplement provides all the benefits of vitamin E you would obtain from food and includes the benefits of tocotrienols, phytosterols, and squalenes. Phytosterols have cholesterol-lowering properties and may reduce the risk of heart disease.

Vitamin C8 delivers a more complete vitamin C supplement. Vitamin C8 is an antioxidant that comes in many different forms and claims regarding its effectiveness and bioavailability. Vitamin C8 uses a number of different buffered sources in order to provide you with the most versatile vitamin C supplement available.
Not all vitamin C products are created equal — For your body to truly get all the benefits of vitamin C, it needs to get it from more than one source. Vitamin C8 combines calcium, magnesium, potassium, zinc, manganese, selenium, and sodium mineral ascorbates with ascorbyl palmitate, to provide a full spectrum of powerful antioxidant benefits. Only Vitamin C8 offers eight assisted pathways of absorption and retention for 24 hours or more. Vitamin C8 does even more for your health. Vitamin C8 helps enhance your immune strength, provides a good source of electrolytes, and replenishes your energy before or after workouts. Plus it offers the protection of three cups worth of green tea per capsule!
What makes Vitamin C8 great?
Vitamin C8 is formulated with minerals bonded with vitamin C, a superior form called ascorbates.
Calcium ascorbate is a natural form of vitamin C, which is much more readily absorbed in the bloodstream than other forms of calcium. Importantly, calcium is coupled with vitamin C to deliver the benefits of both calcium and vitamin C.
Magnesium ascorbate, which provides both magnesium and vitamin C, appears to be a unique and promising product, in that both the components have the potential to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Magnesium is the fourth most–abundant mineral in the body. It is essential to build the bones and teeth and numerous metabolic functions. Magnesium ascorbate is a neutral salt having significantly higher gastrointestinal tolerance.
Potassium ascorbate — Potassium is an essential dietary mineral that is also known as an electrolyte. The term “electrolyte” refers to a substance that dissociates into ions (charged particles) in solution, making it capable of conducting electricity. The normal functioning of our bodies depends on the tight regulation of potassium concentrations, both inside and outside of cells.
Manganese ascorbate — Manganese is important in the breakdown of amino acids and the production of energy. It activates various enzymes for proper digestion and utilization of foods. Manganese also helps nourish the nerves and brain, and is necessary for normal skeletal development.
Selenium (from l‑selenomethionine) helps boost the immune system and protect cells against the effects of free radicals. Some studies suggest that selenium may reduce the risk of breast, prostate, liver, lung, and skin disease.
Zinc ascorbate — Zinc is a component of the enzymes involved in most major metabolic pathways in human and animal nutrition, with a wide range of biological roles. Zinc plays catalytic, structural, and regulatory roles in more than 200 zinc metalloenzymes that have been identified in biological systems. These enzymes are involved in nucleic acid and protein metabolism, as well as the production of energy, among other things. Zinc plays structural roles in so-called zinc fingers; these are exploited by transcription factors for interacting with DNA and regulating the activity of genes. Another structural role of zinc is in the maintenance of the integrity of biological membranes, resulting in their protection against oxidative injury.
Sodium ascorbate is buffered (nonacidic) and will not contribute to gastric irritation in acid-sensitive persons. Calcium/magnesium, potassium, and manganese all play an important role, since a constant blood value of these minerals is required for a normal rhythmic heartbeat, healthy nerve transmission, and strong muscle contractions. Once a muscle contracts, calcium leaves and only then, magnesium replaces it; the muscle can then return to a relaxed state. Potassium and sodium are present not only as an electrolyte, but also as an antioxidant. A deficiency of manganese can lead to excess perspiration that contributes to premature electrolyte depletion.
Ascorbyl palmitate is a fat-soluble antioxidant. It is actually both water- and fat-soluble, allowing it to be incorporated into cell membranes. When incorporated into the cell membranes of human red blood cells, ascorbyl palmitate has been found to protect them from oxidative damage and to protect vitamin E (another fat-soluble antioxidant) from oxidation by free radicals. When taking ascorbyl palmitate orally, it becomes hydrolyzed and breaks apart into palmitate and ascorbic acid in the human digestive tract before it is absorbed. The presence of ascorbyl palmitate in Vitamin C8 contributes to the ascorbic acid content and helps protect lipid-soluble antioxidants during storage.
Nutraceuticals — Vitamin C8 provides additional antioxidant protection with the inclusion of nutraceutical extracts. These natural food sources exist in harmony with the whole foods they are derived from. While isolated sources of antioxidants offer increased potency, whole-food sources offer natural balance and synergy, and they provide us with a whole host of natural forms of minerals as well as antioxidants, antibacterial, and disease-fighting agents.
Green tea 75% EGCG — Studies in laboratories have suggested that flavonoid polyphenol-type antioxidants may lower the risk of disease developing or spreading. In these studies, the chemicals in green tea slowed the growth of blood vessels that fed tumours. They also limited the amount of estrogen that might fuel the growth of some diseased breast cells. EGCG inhibits 5‑alpha reductase. Inhibitors of 5AR may be effective in the treatment of 5‑alpha-dihydrotestosterone–dependent abnormalities. The EGCG in green tea has been proven to prevent, inhibit, attack, or induce cell death in diseased prostate, breast, lung, mouth, stomach, and colon cells.
Multi-anthocyanidins 20%, bilberry 25%, grape seed extract 95%, and cranberry 107× extracts — Proanthocyanidins, anthocyanidins, and cyanidins are a group of bioflavonoids that have powerful antioxidant properties. These flavonoids in Vitamin C8 are derived from multiple fruit sources, including strawberry, bilberry, blueberry, grape, cherry, cranberry and elderberry. All of them serve a slightly different role in added antioxidant protection and are also included for scavenging free radicals.
Citrus bioflavonoids — Bioflavonoids are a class of water-soluble plant pigments. Vitamin C–rich fruits and vegetables, especially citrus fruits, are often rich sources of bioflavonoids as well. The effect of bioflavonoids on the bioavailability of ascorbic acid has been examined in two small studies. In one study, ascorbic acid given in a natural citrus extract containing bioflavonoids (in the ratio of bioflavonoids to ascorbic acid of 4:1), proteins, and carbohydrates was more slowly absorbed and 35% more bioavailable than ascorbic acid alone, based on plasma levels of ascorbate over time and 24‑hour urinary excretion of ascorbate.
Quercetin and rutin — Quercetin is a flavonoid that forms the “backbone” for many other flavonoids, including the citrus flavonoids rutin, hesperidin, naringin, and tangeritin. Quercetin and rutin have many health-promoting effects, including improvement of cardiovascular health and reducing risk for disease. They have anti-inflammatory and antiallergic effects, and help the absorption and retention of vitamin C. All these activities are caused by their strong antioxidant action. They will help to combat free-radical molecules which can damage cells.
Black pepper, 95% extract — The active ingredient in both black pepper and long pepper is the alkaloid piperine. Experiments carried out to evaluate the scientific basis for the use of peppers have shown that piperine significantly enhances bioavailability when consumed with other substances and increases the absorption of other nutraceuticals. For this reason, piperine has been formulated to increase absorption of Vitamin C8.
Proteolytic enzymes — Bromelain from pineapple and papain from papaya are proteolytic enzymes that are essential for the digestion of proteins. They work through mechanisms by which they break down peptide bonds of the extracellular matrix molecules holding the cells together, which in this case helps to increase the bioavailability of this ascorbate-nutraceutical matrix. They are both potent digestants that resist the degradation from the conditions that prevail in the human digestive tract. Through its prostaglandin-regulating properties, bromelain can moderate inflammatory symptoms, shorten recovery time, and ameliorate excessive clotting which is attributed to inflammation.

Evening primrose is native to North America. Originally used for the treatment of asthma, stomach and digestive disorders, and bruises, there is renewed interest in the herb because of the oil in this plant. Approximately 70% of the oil is cis-linoleic acid, and as much as 9% cis-gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). The oil also contains campestrol and beta-sitosterol. GLA is an essential polyunsaturated fatty acid that the body converts to a hormone-like substance called prostaglandin E1 (PGE1). PGE1 has anti-inflammatory properties and may also act as a blood thinner and blood-vessel dilator. The anti-inflammatory properties of EPO have been studied in double-blind research with people suffering from rheumatoid arthritis. Some, but not all, studies have reported that EPO supplementation provides significant benefits to these people. GLA, the primary active ingredient in EPO, has anticancer activity in test-tube experiments. Primrose oil has been used to treat the symptoms associated with premenstrual syndrome: irritability, headaches, breast tenderness, and bloating; it has also been helpful in the treatment of eczema. There are claims that increased doses help rheumatoid arthritis and slow the progression of multiple sclerosis.
Linoleic acid, a common fatty acid found in nuts, seeds, and most vegetable oils (including EPO), should theoretically convert to PGE1, but many things can interfere with this conversion, including disease, the aging process, saturated fats, hydrogenated oils, blood-sugar problems, and inadequate amounts of vitamin C, magnesium, zinc, and B vitamins. Supplements that provide GLA circumvent these conversion problems, leading to a more predictable formation of PGE1.
Despite the fact that most over-the-counter pain relievers and many prescription arthritis medicines work primarily by blocking prostaglandin synthesis, prostaglandins do play an important role in many biochemical reactions. Very few plants contain GLA in any significant quantity.
EPO is often used for premenstrual syndrome, allergies and bronchial asthma, high blood cholesterol, skin conditions (such as acne, eczema, and psoriasis), autoimmune conditions (multiple sclerosis, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, and scleroderma), obesity, diabetes mellitus, and immune system depression.
Evening Primrose Oil is available in 500 mg or 1000 mg softgels. Most of the clinical trials have administered doses of 1–2 softgels two or three times daily, with a maximum adult dose of 4 g daily. In some conditions, up to three months may be needed to see a response.

New Roots L-tryptophan 90, l-Tryptophan is an essential amino acid—“essential” means the body can’t synthesize it and must acquire it through diet. This amino acid is pivotal for the production of serotonin, melatonin, and niacin. Serotonin and melatonin stabilize both moods and sleep patterns; niacin regulates digestive function for optimal metabolism of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates.
Supplementation with l-Tryptophan can also increase levels of the chemical messenger's dopamine and norepinephrine, neurotransmitters that affect pleasure and alertness.
New Roots Herbal’s l-Tryptophan is an excellent choice to supplement levels of the critical amino acid that deplete as we age and can prove useful for insomnia, mood enhancement, and overall wellbeing.

l-Lysine is one of numerous amino acids that the body needs for growth and tissue repair. It is classified as one of the nine “essential” amino acids because our bodies do not produce it. Like all amino acids, lysine is a building block for proteins. It also plays a role in the production of various enzymes, hormones, and disease-fighting antibodies.
The richest sources of l-Lysine include red meats, fish, and dairy products (milk, eggs, and cheese). Vegetables are generally a poor source of lysine, with the exception of legumes (beans, peas, and lentils). The daily recommended requirement for an adult is approximately 12 mg/kgbw, which represents approximately 800 mg. While most of the needs for lysine are met through dietary sources, supplements are now popular for treating and preventing specific ailments as well. Lysine has a net positive charge at physiological pH values, making it one of the three basic (with respect to charge) amino acids. This polar amino acid is commonly found on the surfaces of proteins and enzymes, and sometimes appears in the active site. Lysine is incorporated into proteins at the rate of 7% on a molar basis compared to other amino acids.
Researchers are exploring supplementation and the consumption of lysine-rich foods for lowering cholesterol, improving athletic performance, and enhancing recovery after surgery. Some professionals recommend taking lysine during an outbreak of canker sores to speed healing; the exact cause of these tiny but quite painful mouth ulcers is unclear, but most research indicates that a virus is responsible. However, there have been almost no clinical trials using lysine as a remedy for canker sores.
The most promising application of lysine is its use in managing and preventing painful and unsightly herpes sores caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV). l-Lysine supplementation works by tilting the balance between lysine and arginine heavily in favour of lysine. This ameliorates herpes outbreaks because the herpes virus depends on the presence of arginine for its replication.
Lysine has also been shown to be useful in the prevention of atherosclerosis, a hardening of the walls of arteries caused by deposits of lipoproteins (fats). Lysine may be capable of loosening and preventing such deposits, therefore keeping artery walls flexible. Thus, there is less susceptibility for hypertension (high blood pressure). Hypertension is a major factor in heart attack and stroke.
Lysine supplementation increases the absorption of calcium and may reduce its excretion. As a result, some researchers believe that lysine may eventually be shown to have a role in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. Lysine works with other essential amino acids to maintain growth, lean body mass, and the body’s store of nitrogen.

Caprylic Acid Plus is formulated to combat the fungal infections such as thrush, otherwise known as chronic candidiasis. The most common species of yeast responsible for this condition is Candida albicans. Candida is kept in check in healthy persons; unfortunately, this opportunistic yeast can overpopulate and affect the skin, genitals, and digestive tract. This can often happen following the use of broad-spectrum antibiotics or from high blood-glucose levels common for those suffering from diabetes.
Caprylic acid is a naturally occurring short-chain fatty acid that kills off the Candida yeast by disintegrating its cell walls. Its antibacterial action is further strengthened by the antifungal properties of pau d’arco, cloves, and garlic extract.

Grapefruit seed extract (GSE) contains mainly polyphenolic compounds, including quercetin, hesperidin, campherol glycoside, neohesperidin, naringin, apigenin, rutinoside, poncirin, etc. The polyphenols themselves are unstable, but are chemically converted into more stable substances that belong to a diverse class of products, called quaternary ammonium compounds. Some quaternary compounds—benzethonium chloride and benzalkonium chloride, for example—are used industrially as antimicrobials, but are toxic to animal life; hence, we don’t find them in detectable amounts in our GSE. The B vitamin choline is also a quaternary compound, but is nontoxic and even essential for maintaining healthy neurological function and fat metabolism.
GSE features the best of both worlds: the quaternary compounds derived from grapefruit exhibit broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity, while evidencing none of the toxic side effects of chemically derived quaternaries. According to an independent laboratory testing “Acute Oral Toxicity,” it would take at least 4 000 times the normal dose of GSE to produce a 50% chance of poisoning (called LD50).
Grapefruit seed extract is being used successfully in humans and animals alike to eliminate many types of internal and external infections caused by many types of parasites (single- and multicelled), viruses, bacteria, and fungus. It naturally detoxifies, enhances, and supports the immune system. It has been proven highly effective in numerous applications.
Grapefruit seed extract contains high levels of vitamins C and E as well as bioflavonoids. The important substances have an antioxidant action and can neutralize free radicals that damage cells and cause numerous illnesses.

New Roots Herbal Borage Oil is certified organic and non‑GMO. From its bristly stems to its blue star-shaped flowers, virtually all parts of the borage plant (Borago officinalis) have been used over the centuries for their healing properties and as a flavouring for foods. As early as the 1600s, Europeans mixed borage leaves and flowers into a wine that was renowned for relieving boredom and dispelling melancholy.
Like evening primrose oil and black currant seed oil, borage oil owes its healing power to the presence of essential fatty acids, the most important of which is gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an omega‑6 fatty acid. (While borage oil is often used interchangeably with evening primrose oil, borage oil boasts more than twice as much GLA.) Once processed by the body, GLA is converted into hormone-like substances that can either block inflammation or promote it; in borage oil, the GLA seems to calm inflammation overall, making it an attractive treatment option for arthritis and other inflammatory conditions. Nature’s most potent concentration of GLA comes in the form of borage seed oil (24%). A great deal of scientific research has been conducted with supplements rich in GLA, resulting in significant interest regarding the aforementioned health ailments, as well as for those affected by premenstrual syndrome, benign breast disease, eczema, psoriasis, obesity, and vascular disorders.
The essential fatty acids combined here have proven to impart a regulatory function on the body’s fatty-acid metabolism. Fat metabolism is as important, if not more critical, than our body’s metabolism of proteins and carbohydrates, as evidenced by the drastic rise in fat-related degenerative diseases such as vascular disease and strokes. Dietary essential fatty acids common to borage seed oil are ultimately converted to hormone-like substances known as prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are important for the regulation of a host of bodily functions including inflammation; swelling; pain pressure in the eye, joints, or blood vessels; secretions from mucus membranes and their viscosity; smooth muscle and autonomic reflexes; gastrointestinal system; arteries; ears; heart; water retention; blood-clotting ability; allergic response; rheumatoid arthritis; nerve transmission; steroid production; and hormone synthesis.
Past and present scientific research supports the use of essential fatty acid nutrients in promoting optimal health. Borage seed oil is recognized as nature’s richest source of GLA. These natural plant substances used alone have created a great deal of interest in the treatment of numerous health problems. Evidence exists to suggest the combination of omega-3 fatty acids with GLA may further complement the therapeutic result of either fatty acid used singularly.

Spirulina and chlorella are freshwater forms of algae that rank among the most complete nutritional sources available. These aquatic organisms harness the sun’s energy and assimilate virtually every vitamin and mineral essential for excellent health and well being.
Certified organic spirulina is an excellent, cholesterol-free source of essential amino acids. Spirulina also contains carotenoids that serve as precursors for the synthesis of vitamin A. Lipid levels of approximately 7% include gamma-linoleic acid (GLA) and alpha-linoleic acid (ALA) that help normalize cholesterol levels. Vitamins and minerals in spirulina include vitamins A, B, C, D, and E, as well as critical trace elements such as chromium, magnesium, and zinc.
Certified organic chlorella is a complete and natural source of amino acids, fibre, vitamins, minerals, and trace elements including magnesium and zinc. The benefits of it being digestible easily include improved immune system function and better digestion, along with improved cognitive and metabolic functions.
Each vegetable capsule contains equal amounts of both spirulina and chlorella, that work in unison to offer a broad range of nutritional support to meet the needs of our modern lifestyle.

Femina Flora is a 10-day intravaginal treatment formulated with four specific probiotics. These lactic acid–producing probiotics temporarily modify vaginal flora. A healthy vaginal flora creates a more acidic environment, for relief from chronic yeast and bacterial infections. The restoration of a normal vaginal pH level inhibits Candida overgrowth as well as other opportunistic yeast and bacteria.
Antibiotics, oral and topical contraceptives, as well as feminine hygiene products can reduce the population of friendly vaginal flora; this leads to susceptibility to infection. Femina Flora is a safe, natural, and side effect–free therapeutic option for healthy vaginal flora.

l-Theanine is the amino acid critical for its calming influence on cognitive function. It crosses the blood-brain barrier to help establish a state of relaxation while maintaining alertness. Upon exposure to the brain, it stimulates production of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), the chemical produced by the brain that blocks excitatory stimuli that contribute to stress.
l-Theanine follows a similar pathway to prescription drugs from the benzodiazepine group (Valium, Xanax), without the risk of harmful side effects or addiction. Studies have also shown l-Theanine to encourage alpha wave activity associated with a state of serenity and mental clarity. It also insulates the nervous system from stress that can cause dangerous spikes in blood pressure, and carbohydrate cravings that result in accumulation of stubborn belly fat.

Our sugar-free Children’s Omega‑3 contains the ideal ratio of 100 mg EPA to 50 mg DHA per softgel, with a subtle burst of natural lemon flavour. Omega‑3 fatty acids are crucial for childhood brain development which lays the foundation for learning, behaviour, attention span, mental focus, and mood. Studies have also shown omega‑3 fatty acid to be effective for treatment of childhood ADHD. Premium fish-oil supplementation is also a healthy, side effect–free alternative to prescription stimulants (methylphenidate) in the development and maintenance of ongoing mental health from childhood through adolescence.
New Roots Herbal Children’s Omega‑3 is sourced from deep sea–dwelling sardines and anchovies. They’re tested for purity and potency, as well as for freedom from heavy-metal contamination in our industry-leading analytical laboratory.

When it is in its natural state, raw and unprocessed, the food you eat contains—along with its many nutrients—the enzymes you need to break down that food. But many of us exist on a diet of primarily cooked food, and digestive enzymes are extremely sensitive to heat. In fact, they are more sensitive to heat than vitamins, and are destroyed by any heat above 48 °C (118 °F); imagine what cooking does to digestive enzymes and to your digestion! Not only cooking, but also pasteurization, canning, and microwaving destroy digestive enzymes.
Our plant enzymes possess four major benefits over enzymes derived from the pancreas of animals.
Firstly—and obviously—, they are suitable for vegetarians.
Secondly, they are active over a broader range of foods than animal-derived enzymes.
Thirdly, they begin their work earlier in the digestive process than animal enzymes. Plant enzymes begin working in the stomach; animal enzymes begin working only later, in the intestines. So plant enzymes spare the body a lot of work by predigesting food before it is exposed to your body’s own pancreatic enzymes.
Finally, plant enzymes avoid the possible risk inherent in animal-derived enzymes that your body will recognize them as its own pancreatic enzymes and diminish its own production.

Garcinia cambogia is a tropical plant whose fruit contains hydroxycitric acid (HCA), a biologically active compound critical for weight management. HCA works in two distinctive ways: it blocks the activity of the enzyme that drives the process of fat accumulation; it also exerts positive effects on serotonin levels to reduce appetite, improve insulin levels, improve fat burning, and control cravings that can devastate weight loss initiatives. This encourages the metabolism of fat stored throughout the body, including belly (abdominal) fat, a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Garcinia cambogia also appears to benefit fasting blood glucose and cholesterol levels, which can definitely help those with type II diabetes and hypercholesteremia (elevated cholesterol).
New Roots Herbal’s Garcinia Cambogia extract has been validated in our ISO 17025–accredited laboratory for a minimum potency of 60% HCA. When taken on an empty stomach three times daily before meals, it can give you the side effect–free, natural nudge critical for your weight-loss and fitness goals.

Children’s Probiotic contains 10 billion colony-forming units consisting of 12 scientifically proven probiotic strains. These select species work at specific sites throughout the entire intestinal tract. This establishes favourable conditions for the dominance of healthy microflora critical for maximum nutrient assimilation and superior immune-system function. Our ultraconcentrated formula also strengthens resistance to childhood diarrhea. The benefits of our diverse formula include establishing the attachment of probiotics within the mucosal lining of both the small and large intestines to prevent the growth of pathogenic bacteria such as E. coli.
Children’s Probiotic comes with a convenient scoop for ease of dosage. It can be added to juices or easily incorporated into foods such as yoghurt, smoothies, and apple sauce, without changing taste or texture.

Ultra B Complex incorporates vitamin C and coenzyme (active form) B vitamins, functional flush-free niacin, and enhanced-absorption choline. Vitamin C and B vitamins support the body’s nervous system to deal more effectively with stress.
The B‑complex vitamins are named so because they are found together as a complex in food. They have complementary actions and work together in the body. B vitamins are responsible for a myriad of physiological functions which include the metabolism of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins; the formation of red blood cells; and the maintenance of good health.
B‑complex deficiencies are widespread. One study at Tufts University suggests that over 39% of people had low values of vitamin B12. B vitamins are water-soluble, and any excess amount is immediately eliminated through urine. Since none is stored, it is important to have a consistent supply.
New Roots Herbal Ultra B Complex uses coenzyme (active form) B vitamins for maximum absorption. The results are impressive: a fast-acting B complex that does what B vitamins are supposed to do—actively support the mind, mood, nervous, cardiovascular, and digestive systems.

New Roots Prostate Perform, The prostate; it’s a problem for the majority of men as they age. It can lead to unnecessary problems later in life including surgery. This small gland, located just below the bladder, impacts both your urinary and sexual functions. Every man has a very effective early warning system; problems during urination or ejaculation may indicate an enlarged prostate (benign prostate hyperplasia [BPH]).
Typically, problems with the prostate involve BPH. Men starting at age 40 produce and accumulate high levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in the prostate. This accumulation of DHT may encourage the growth of cells. In time, this growth in the prostate gland can become problematic, by causing pressure against the urethra, resulting in many BPH symptoms.
DHT is both an inhibitory and activating hormone, like a switch. For example, it turns some hair follicles on, causing hair growth, like the hair on our faces, while it turns others off, like the hair on our scalps.
Prostate Perform contains phytosterols in different forms such as saw palmetto, soy, pygeum, and rye flower pollen, all of which are standardized to attain an effective result. Phytosterols are plant cholesterols that show ample evidence to aid with the symptoms of BPH. It also combines vitamins, minerals, amino acids, nutraceuticals, and fatty acids to support prostate metabolism and protect from further disease.
A maintenance regimen of New Roots Herbal’s Prostate Perform is a smart addition to your nutritional program. Our innovative formula acts as a proactive, one-stop supplement to help ensure optimal male health. Prostate Perform is a comprehensive formula that goes beyond only concerns for benign prostatic hyperplasia, offering total prostate support.

Chromium picolinate is a patented version of the trace element chromium, chemically bound to picolinic acid.
The body produces picolinic acid as a mechanism to improve the assimilation of trace minerals at the cellular level. Fully reacted chromium in picolinate form saves the body a metabolic step and improves the rate of absorption. Studies have shown chromium picolinate supplementation to improve metabolism as well as to lower blood serum cholesterol and glucose levels. Chromium enhances the ability of insulin to lower serum glucose levels; this has a favourable effect on the development of coronary heart disease, as diabetes is a major risk factor.
Athletes that train extensively should also consider supplementation, as excessive excretion through perspiration can lead to a deficiency.

New Roots Candida Stop, The Candida albicans yeast is present in 80% of the population. Usually, it lies dormant; however, it is a very opportunistic organism. C. Albicans can grow out of control if you become immune-compromised or help create an environment that is more favourable to its growth (consuming too much sugar for example). The use of antibiotics also reduces friendly probiotic populations that help keep Candida under control.
For women, Candida overgrowth can cause vaginal burning, erratic periods, inconsistent flow and more. In men, libido can be affected. For children, frequent infections can occur.
Candida overgrowth can cause many symptoms including sugar cravings, bleeding gums, frequent stomach pains, and digestion problems, skin problems (skin infections, eczema, psoriasis, acne), foggy brain/trouble concentrating, constant tiredness and exhaustion, anxiety, mood swings, anger, irritability, headaches, and itchy skin.
New Roots Herbal Candida Stop kills the Candida overgrowth. The Candida Stop program provides helpful information on how to reduce your Candida yeast and increase your probiotic population to healthier levels. Our formula uses natural ingredients and our Candida Stop program helps eliminate the root cause of Candida overgrowth in your body.
