Amazing gel

I used your glucosamine joint gel for the first time yesterday and it really works! I’ve had pains in my toe joints, but I don’t know why as I have always taken foot comfort seriously. However, the shooting pains are very painful and worst at around 1am when they wake me up. I rubbed some gel in at about 10am when it was delivered and had a pain-free day. Then I rubbed the gel in again at bedtime and slept pain-free until the next day. Thank you very much for an excellent product.
Ms D. H. Williams, Shrewsbury

Strong smell

I have noticed that my recent order of 50 Plus multivitamins has a strong smell to it. Is there something wrong with them as they never usually smell like this?
Mr H. Clinton, South-on-sea

Editor’s note: Because our products are made with the finest natural ingredients, there is often some variation in their colour or smell.

In this case, the addition of Ginkgo biloba to 50 Plus has made it smell strongly. The herb itself is very pungent and it seems that our recent consignment of the raw ingredient was particularly strong. However, we can confirm that it is perfectly safe. We have also ensured that any future batches should no longer have this problem.

Which one?

I know I should be taking a fish oil supplement because I don’t eat a whole lot of oily fish but I’m at a loss to know whether I should take cod liver oil or an omega 3 supplement and in which quantities. Can you help me?
Mrs E. Mosby, Blackburn

Editor’s note: If you are not eating much oily fish, it is best to go for a fish oil supplement that contains a higher, concentrated amount of the essential fatty acids DHA and EPA. Healthspan’s St Clement’s Cod Liver Oil Liquid is the best choice as it provides our highest concentration of omega 3 per serving, as well as vitamins A and D. However, if you would prefer a capsule, or would like a supplement without those added vitamins, our premium fish oil supplement Opti-Omega 3 contains highly concentrated levels of omega 3.

For those who already eat oily fish, we also do a selection of cod liver oil capsules and omega 3 capsules with lower concentrations of omega 3 fatty acids to complement your diet and boost your levels.

In your words...

I’m delighted that Vein-Vine has helped so well for my swollen legs.’

‘Chondromax has worked brilliantly. I can now play golf without the worry of the pain I used to get in my elbows.’
MR T. HOOPER, BOGNOR REGIS
‘I hope to see more of your products in those lovely flat packs. They are much more convenient as it means I don’t have to wait in for the postman or collect my supplements from the sorting office.’
MRS O. CLEMENTS, BANSTEAD
