Let’s talk synergy…. the interaction or cooperation of two or more organizations, substances, or other agents to produce a combined effect greater than the sum of their separate effects. At Organixx we believe in maximizing the strength of our blended supplements by sourcing high quality and clean ingredients. And then we take it to the next level by asking the question…” What ingredients can we blend to produce a combined benefit greater than the sum of their separate benefits?” Tune in to find out the outcome!
Frankincense
* Frankincense is the resinous extract from the trees of the genus boswellia, have been used for centuries in cultural ceremonies, as a cosmetic agent, as a traditional medicine to treat a variety of ailments, especially inflammatory diseases, which we just talked about, including asthma, arthritis, cerebral edema, chronic pain syndrome, chronic bowel diseases, cancer, and some other illnesses.
Two ways that you can get frankincense
Essential oil
Ingesting
Myrrh
Myrrh is a reddish-brown dried sap from a thorny tree. Commiphora myrrha is the actual name for it, but it's native to Northeastern Africa and Southwest Asia.
Myrrh has long been used in traditional Chinese medicine and Ayurvedic medicine. Scientists are now testing the oil's potential uses, including for pain, infection, and even skin sores.
Oxidative damage from free radicals contributes to aging and even some diseases.
Turmeric
* Turmeric is believed to be one of the most effective nutritional supplements in existence.
Turmeric, in its raw form, it's not very bioavailable, again, which means it's hard for your body to absorb it and really to get the curcumin, which is the real active compound out of turmeric that's the big benefit, and I mean we're talking single digit percentage of curcumin that you absorb out of turmeric.
Piperine changes the enzymes in your stomach, which is what helps make it more bioavailable for the turmeric.
That same thing happens if you're on prescription medication. So, I always warn people, if you're taking prescription meds, kind of stay away from the turmeric supplements that have piperine in them, or black pepper, because it can increase or decrease the efficacy of that prescription med, which also increases and decreases the efficacy of the side effects of it.
When you ferment it, that releases those enzymes so that when you ingest it into your body, now all of the enzymes that your body needs to break down that turmeric and absorb that curcumin is right there in your gut.
It can also support brain health.
Putting Them Together
* They have a synergistic effect, having all three of these ingredients together. So strong and so powerful, we actually created a supplement called Magi-Complexx.
Magi-Complexx
* Comes in two forms: capsule and essential oil.
