Linseed is a good source of omega-3 essential fatty acids, magnesium, potassium, B vitamins, protein, zinc and fibre; components needed to maintain consistent health at high performance levels. Beneficial for muscle, tendon and ligament health. Linseed has a higher Lysine, Methionine and Threonine level than alfalfa. It is also very high in Glutamic acid (aka Glutamate) But the big value is the high level of ALA (Alpha-linolenic-acid).
Pure Garlic is an excellent source of bio-available Sulphur, oil and the B group vitamins. Will help to maintain general good health and plays an important role in supporting the immune system, particularly during periods of illness, infection and recuperation.
Yeast Culture is one of the "original" probiotics. Yeasts are a good source of protein, with an amino acid profile equivalent to soybean (rich in lysine, and very good for a vegetable protein). Yeasts also contain relatively high quantities of B vitamins such as biotin, niacin, pantothenic acid, and thiamine. Restores vital bacterial balance in the gut and soothes the digestive system in times of stress or gastric upset.
References to the herb Fenugreek are made in Mrs M Grieve's "A Modern Herbal" written in 1931, when Fenugreek was used extensively as a feed additive for horses and cattle, to help put on condition. Fenugreek's chemical composition is very similar to that of cod liver oil. The fenugreek seeds are extremely nutritive and consist of up to 8% oil and 20% protein and contain the vitamins A,B and C as well as E. Rich in calcium. Because of its aroma fenugreek will tempt shy feeders and help to put condition on poor doers. Used to stimulate appetite, for gastric disorders, ulceration and general condition. It is anti-inflammatory for stomach disorders, useful for allergies, anaemia, bruises, colitis, coughs, lung problems, sinus congestion.
