"Dis-Chem's popular Gold range now offers a new line of premium products formulated using leading pharmaceutical-grade, scientifically-researched and patented proprietary ingredients sourced from reputable global suppliers."
The new Dis-Chem Gold+ range offers health-conscious consumers high-potency products, with no stone left unturned in Dis-Chem's quest to create a high-quality supplement range that meets the nutritional needs of discerning customers.
The initial range includes four products, which boast industry-leading delivery systems for enhanced bioavailability and absorption.
Dis-Chem Gold+ Liposomal Vitamin C
Backed by several human clinical studies, CELLg8® C Liposomal Vitamin C offers an innovative way to meet the body’s vitamin C requirements by using liposome technology to enhance nutrient delivery.
Absorbing vitamin C in high doses poses challenges for the body, and whatever is left gets excreted. Liposomal vitamin C boosts absorption by passing directly through the intestines into the bloodstream, where the liposome protein transports and deposits vitamin C directly into the cell.
Clinical studies show that liposomal vitamin C is approximately 1,77 times more bioavailable than non-liposomal vitamin C, which may lead to greater amounts of vitamin C concentrations in the body.
Each vegan-friendly capsule contains 720 mg CELLg8® C liposomal vitamin C, which provides 500 mg of vitamin C.
Dis-Chem Gold+ Magnesium and Trace Minerals
This full-spectrum naturally-occurring mineral solution contains ConcenTrace® Trace Mineral Complex, an all-natural concentrated complex that contains a full spectrum of 72 naturally-occurring ionic trace minerals from the Utah Great Salt Lake, made using ConcenFlo™, a proprietary harvesting process.
While the body only requires trace minerals in very small amounts, these minuscule nutritional powerhouses are crucial for many bodily functions. Deficiencies in certain trace minerals can also have unwanted effects on our health. Natural sources of important trace, such as vegetables, meats and dairy products, may also contain fewer minerals due to nutrient depletion experienced due to poor soil quality.
For these reasons, many people struggle to meet their daily requirements for magnesium through diet alone. Magnesium is an essential mineral that plays important roles in many bodily processes.
Magnesium citrate is one of the most bioavailable forms of magnesium and is better absorbed in the body compared to certain other magnesium salts.
Each tablet contains 937.5 mg of magnesium citrate and 156 mg of trace minerals via the ConcenTrace® complex.
Dis-Chem Gold+ Berberine & Green Tea
With insulin resistance, excess weight and obesity considered a significant modern-age pandemic, many people need to find ways to manage their weight, and the combination of berberine and green tea can aid the process.
Various studies demonstrate that green tea is beneficial for weight management by increasing thermogenesis, which boosts metabolic activity, burning calories to produce heat.
Greenselect® is a caffeine-free, green tea extract backed by human clinical studies that leverages Phytosome® Technology, a proprietary technology developed by Indena, to optimise absorption in the body.
Various studies also show how berberine improves insulin secretion, stimulates glycolysis (the process that breaks down glucose to produce energy), and reduces insulin resistance. These effects may aid weight management and enhance blood sugar regulation.
Additional chromium, an essential mineral that plays a role in how insulin helps the body regulate blood sugar levels and the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, adds additional weight management support.
Each vegan-friendly capsule contains 500 mg Berberine Hydrochloride and 50 mg Green Tea Greenselect® with Phytosome® Technology.
Dis-Chem Gold+ Phyto Curcumin
Supported by over 35 human studies worldwide, Curcumin Meriva® is one of the most studied and scientifically documented curcumin extracts in the world.
Using Phytosome® Technology, a proprietary technology developed by Indena, to optimise bioavailability in the body, this unique phytosome composition gives Meriva® Curcumin significant absorption benefits over many standard turmeric extracts, with clinical studies showing that Meriva® Curcumin creates higher blood concentrations for longer periods.
Meriva® Curcumin contains the 3 major curcuminoids naturally found within turmeric and at the same proportions. Meriva® also contains high levels of demethoxycurcumin (DMC), one of the more powerful curcuminoids.
This unique profile composition, coupled with innovative phytosome technology, makes this a powerful formula for joint health and function. Clinical studies demonstrate that Meriva® also has significant effects on improving stiffness, muscle soreness, and physical function.
Each vegan-friendly capsule contains 500 mg of curcumin.
