Question 1

what does "cla" and "polyphenols"  mean?

CLA/Polyphenols: Cla is conjugated linoleic acid, found in meat & dairy products, which helps achieve healthy body weight.
Polyphenols are compounds that prevent proper digestion of nutrients, due to high content of tannin.

Question 2

hi can flavonoids and polyphenols stunt bone growth in males ?

Accepted Answer

No: You may have read that flavonoids can act as a weak estrogen in the body and estrogens can shorten the period of bone growth in teenage boys but there is NO evidence that flavonoids and polyphenols have this effect on bones and you are 22 so you are already fully grown

Question 3

is there an sa option for gundry md vital reds which contains polyphenol rich super fruits to improve energy levels and heart health ?

Accepted Answer

Not a medical ?: We answer medical questions. While it would be appropriate to answer about the medical properties of Vital Reds I have no way of knowing the policies of a private company and if it ships products overseas. I advise you contact the company about this rather than ask here.It's a decent product but many other companies have similar superfood products so also look for similar products available in SA.

Question 8

can i take rhodiola and ginkgo biloba together?

Accepted Answer

Dear plant lover: Gingko has some interaction with  licensed regulated medicine. Since both of these are not licensed for medical use, it is not known to doctors whether there exists interaction or not.

The answer is a cautious I don’t know, and it is not researched in any meaningful way to look at side effects.

Question 10

can i safely combine st. johns wort and ginkgo biloba?

Accepted Answer

Used for two differ: ent things. St. Johns Wort is a mild antidepressant and works to calm the nervous system, whereas ginkgo biloba is a mental stimulant. So you wouldn't want to use both together or it may negate each others effects. Speak to your doctor to determine which one you may need now to help with symptoms that are more prevalent. Do you want to be more anxious, or more calm? Two different feelings.
