August is a busy month here at the Bethlehem Health Shop. This week on Thursday we will have Claire in-store doing tastings for Nuzest's Good Green Vitality, Kids Good Stuff and Clean Lean Protein. To celebrate their 9th birthday we have 15% off their products all month. Its also my 2 year anniversary of buying the shop this week, so on Friday 6th you will receive double stamps on your loyalty card when you spend $25 in store!

You may remember in June we were to hold an "Intro to Homeopathy for Children" class. The class ended up being postponed until this month and will now be held on Saturday 21st August from 3pm till 5.30pm. The cost of this 2.5 hour class is $40. It introduces the basics of Homeopathy and covers its principles and usage, as well as 12 of the more commonly used remedies for children. It also includes plenty of handouts and reference materials for further reading and learning. ​Bach flower remedies and cell salts are also covered briefly if time permits. Reply to this email if you would like to book.

Also on Saturday 21st we have Glenys Elkins Intuitive Clairvoyant here from 9:00am until 1:00pm. To book an appointment with Glenys please contact her directly on 0211349913.

Immunity Fuel Probiotic Superfood is the ultimate combination of billions of live bacteria with the added benefit of organic wholefood nutrition. The 15 strains of probiotics are fermented with the wholefoods for 3 weeks during which time the bacteria pre-digest the wholefoods so the nutrients are instantly absorbed into the cells of your body. The live bacteria help to strengthen the immune system and assist the promotion of digestive health. This unique formula detoxifies the body, cleans out the colon and improves food absorption.

Good quality probiotics must contain large numbers of live beneficial bacteria to be effective, and all the Immunity Fuel products are batch tested to ensure quality viable, live bacteria in every gram. The multi-strain organic bacteria have been bred to withstand the acidic environment of the gut, as well as toxins that pass through the body (such as alcohol, fizzy drinks, sugar etc).

Immunity Fuel Probiotic Superfood is available as capsules or powder.  There is also a guaranteed gluten free available option which is suitable for people with Coeliac disease.  For more information on ingredients please go to our website

Congratulations to Susan Ricketts who is the winner of last months Herb Farm Bakuchiol Oil

Are you looking for some support for your gall bladder? Here at Bethlehem Health Shop we stock a natural herbal complex to support gall bladder health.

BioTrace Gallbladder Complete is a synergistic herbal blend that has been specifically formulated to support optimal function of the gallbladder and liver.

Studies have shown Globe Artichoke, Turmeric and Dandelion Root to support bile secretion which is important as bile helps process and digest fats and remove toxins from the body.

Blend walnuts, dates, cacao and coconut oil for about 3 minutes, until combined. Add brazil nuts and mix through with hands/wooden spoon. Place mixture into a small container lined with baking paper and press down until very well compacted (using the back of a spatula works well for this). Freeze until hard, then slice into squares. Store in freezer.

Our spine or back bone is a complex central support structure made up of vertebrae, disks, nerves, joints, ligaments and muscles that create the scaffolding for the entire body and connects the different parts of your musculoskeletal system.   This structure allows us to stand upright, walk, twist, bend and to sit down.  Importantly it also protects the spinal cord and nerves.

Many people have experienced back pain at some point in their lives. Along with an appointment to your preferred health care specialist, which may include osteopathy, chiropractic care, acupuncture, or therapeutic massage, there are a host of natural remedies that may support the healing process. 

In the event of an accident or injury to your back, we have some lovely wheat bags in store that can be used hot or chilled to provide relief. The first remedies that come to mind are Selene Homeopathics Arnica/Rhus/Ruta or Heel Traumeel. Traumeel comes in drops, tablets, cream or gel and may be beneficial to help with the pain, inflammation and bruising.  Real Deal Hurt Crème or the Zen range are other topical products that can be used for injuries, pain and swelling, or back and neck stiffness. They can also be used for other conditions like arthritis or for pre-sport event warm up to avoid injury.  Good Health make an amazing Magnesium Cream which besides magnesium, contains a host of natural herbs and ingredients which may provide fast relief for aching muscles, joints, and nerves. Where there is nerve ending or shooting pain Artemis St John’s Wort Oil can be used alongside other products. We also stock other magnesium gel and spray options and of course magnesium supplements which are so important in helping to relax the muscles that can contribute to back pain.  

On a final note, a good supportive mattress on your bed is also an important consideration when it comes to spine health. You spend many hours of your life in bed, so it’s worth investing in a quality mattress to support your back.  It also pays to be mindful of your posture not just when you lift heavy items, but when you sit on your chair or sofa and when you stand and move.
