Neocell, Hyaluronic Acid, 100 mg, 60 Capsules
Regular price $79.70 Sale price $59.85 You Save 25%Neocell, Hyaluronic Acid, 100 mg, 60 Capsules
Boost your beauty with NeoCell's Hyaluronic Acid Daily Hydration which supports skin hydration. One of nature's most water-loving molecules, Hyaluronic Acid can hold 1,000 times its weight in water and is found in virtually every tissue of the body. Hyaluronic Acid is not only essential for healthy, supple skin, it also promotes beauty from the inside out.
As we age, the Hyaluronic Acid content in our bodies naturally decreases. One way this decrease manifests is from UV radiation which breaks down collagen fibers causing wrinkles and sagging skin.
Hyaluronidase, is an enzyme that also breaks down collagen fibers. Hyaluronic Acid counteracts this enzyme by plumping the inner layers of the epidermis by hydrating the skin from the inside. Hyaluronic Acid creates a more youthful skin environment, thus reducing wrinkles.
Hyaluronic Acid is also found in high concentrations in the joints. Hyaluronic Acid’s unique property of high viscosity, provides vital shock absorption and lubrication to the joints.
Eye problems such as poor vision and dry eyes can also manifest when Hyaluronic Acid decreases in the body. Hyaluronic Acid is an important constituent of the ocular tissue and is essential for normal functioning of the eye.
In the body, Collagen and Hyaluronic Acid are almost always found together. Collagen provides the mechanical strength of connective tissues and Hyaluronic Acid, with its ability to bind enormous amounts of water, serves to lubricate these same tissues providing needed hydration. By supplementing with Collagen and Hyaluronic Acid, you give your body a powerful synergistic team for beautiful skin and healthy connective tissues.

Hemp Farm, Pure Hemp Protein Powder, 500g
Regular price $15.85Hemp Farm, Pure Hemp Protein Powder, 500g
Hemp protein powder is a nourishing formula providing all nine essential amino acids and omegas 3 & 6 that help your body work harder and recover faster from exercise while supporting a healthy immune system, and nourishing the hair, skin, and nails. Hemp protein is an excellent alternative for anyone wanting to try a plant-based protein supplement. How much hemp protein you’ll want to take will depend on your fitness goals and dietary requirements.
Hemp is considered a superior protein source due to the fact it is a complete, sustainable protein source, including the nine essential amino acids that your body is unable to produce on its own and so we must obtain these from our diet. Amino acids are the building blocks for all protein in our bodies – vital for tissue growth and repair, the daily functioning of our bodies. Hemp protein is known to support normal energy levels and a healthy digestive function and for its role in maintaining a healthy immune system.
Hemp protein powder contains an optimal ratio of Omega 3, 6 and 9, plus GLA, a natural fatty acid as well as albumin and edestin – both classified as “globular proteins” which are highly digestible to aid the absorption of your protein intake. Hemp protein is also free of oligosaccharides which can cause bloating and are often associated with whey proteins.
Hemp protein is for you if:
- You’re an athlete with high protein requirements.
- You’re going to the gym, working out and wanting to increase muscle mass.
- You want to incorporate more plant-based proteins into your diet.
- You’re following a vegan diet and wanting to increase your overall protein intake.
Just one 30 gram serving of our hemp protein powder will provide your body with 15 grams of protein, 8.7 grams of dietary fibre and energy-giving nourishment. Hemp protein powder also contains a variety of other nutrients including B vitamins, magnesium and vitamin E, chlorophyll and antioxidants without any saturated fat, cholesterol, sodium or sugar.
How to take hemp protein powder:
Hemp protein is an extremely versatile whole food supplement, and you can add hemp to pretty much everything and anything, sweet or savoury.
- Stir a serving into your favourite milk or water for a quick pre-workout protein shake.
- Mix a tablespoon through your oats to boost protein at breakfast.
- Add hemp protein into snack recipes like bliss balls and cookies.
- Upgrade your smoothies. Blend in a serving of hemp protein.
Ingredients: Premium Hemp Protein Powder Certified with the Sustainable Agronomics and agriculture. Packaged in New Zealand.
Hemp is known to be gluten-free, however trace amounts of gluten may be present due to rogue seed/nut contaminants during harvesting and packaging.
How to store hemp protein powder:
Once opened, reseal entirely after each serve. Hemp protein powder is best kept refrigerated to extend shelf life where it will last for up to 12 months. If you have no fridge space, store in your pantry at room temperature and consume within 90 days of opening.

Now Foods, Biotin, 5000 mcg, 60 Veg Capsules
Regular price $26.00 Sale price $19.85 You Save 24%Now Foods, Biotin, 5000 mcg, 60 Veg Capsules
Biotin (5000mcg) Overview
If you've been dealing with thinning or brittle hair, or thin fingernails that split and break easily, NOW Foods 5mg Biotin supplement may be a huge help to you. Biotin was discovered when scientists were looking for the cause and cure for a disease then known as "egg-white injury syndrome". One of this disease's primary clinical signs is hair loss (alopecia) and thin, brittle hair. They eventually deduced that raw egg whites contain a protein that irreversibly binds to biotin in food, gradually depleting the body's supply and eventually inducing a deficiency state which produces the symptoms of the disease.
Biotin has been studied ever since and turns out to be an interesting B vitamin that plays a few different roles in growth and metabolism. Today, biotin supplements like this one from NOW Foods are used for 2 main purposes. Most users take biotin to improve the growth and condition of hair and nails, with many people seeing great results. It's also on the growing list of nutrients that can help to stabilize blood sugar and levels, along with chromium, alpha lipoic acid and cinnamon. Multivitamins and B complex formulas contain many nutrients that are good for hair including 'some' biotin but typically not very much. So, keep taking your multi or B complex but use a separate biotin supplement if you're trying to grow thicker, more robust hair and nails. NOW Foods leads the industry for quality formulas, so their 5 mg biotin would be a great choice. Ideally, you'll give this 2-3 months to work, taking it as directed every day. Couple it with a good protein powder like NOW Whey Protein Isoalte and have a shake or two every day. Hair and nails grow slowly and from the roots out, so you'll have to be patient, but the combination of extra protein and biotin can make a big difference with consistent use.
Biotin (5000mcg) Description from Now
Biotin is a water-soluble vitamin necessary for normal growth and body function. Biotin functions as a key regulatory element in gluconeogenesis, fatty acid synthesis, and in the metabolism of some amino acids. Alongside its role in energy production, Biotin enhances the synthesis of certain proteins. In addition, Biotin promotes normal immunity and plays a critical role in skin health.

Delivery
We ship to any address (including rural addresses and PO boxes) in NZ, we charge a flat rate for normal (non-rural) delivery, and a flat rate for rural delivery (if your address is "RD") no matter how much you order. We use NZ Post CourierPost and no signature is required.
Our aim is to ship orders on the day we receive them if we get orders before 3pm. Stock is all despatched from 1 location and usually you'll receive your order next day for major metro areas, and other locations within 1-2 days.
We provide shipping updates and notifications by email to keep you informed.
