It also contains Glucosamine which is a natural substance essential as a building block for joint cartilage and connective tissue.

It provides an anti-inflammatory action in the body for the relief of sore joints and arthritis.
What is contained in each capsule?

What is Glucosamine?
Glucosamine is a natural substance derived from crab and shrimp shells. It's found in the body and utilized in the production of tendons, ligaments, connective tissue and joint cartilage. In most cases, the joints produce sufficient glucosamine to keep the cartilage in good repair, but if not, the cartilage dries out, degenerates, and cracks. Left unprotected, the joints then become swollen, stiff, inflamed, tender, and painful.
What is bee venom?
Bee venom consists of more than 18 natural substances that cannot be chemically reproduced. One of the most important components is Melittin (mel a tin) This is shown to be one of the most powerful anti inflammatory agents known - it is 100 times more potent than hydrocortisol.
Dosage?
The recommended dosage is 1 capsule three times a day, however an initial small dose is recommended as a simple precaution against the possibility of an allergic reaction.
What is the difference between Bee Venom and Glucosamine capsules and our Joint Formula capsules?
Bee Venom and Glucosamine capsules contain Glucosamine hydrochloride and bee venom. Joint Formula capsules contain Glucosamine sulfate and Chondroitin.
Side effects?
If you are allergic to Bee stings you will probably react to bee venom. The side effects can be vomiting, diarrhoea, swollen joints. If in doubt, do not take this product. Choose our Joint Formula capsules instead. These do not contain Bee venom.
Who should not take this product?
We recommend that you should seek medical advice before using this product if you have unstable insulin dependant diabetes or cardiovascular conditions. Do not use this product if you are allergic to Bee stings. Similarly, medical advice should be sought prior to use if you are unsure about interactions with medication or if ANY doubt exists.
Should you take any other Abeeco product with Bee Venom and Glucosamine capsules?
For maximum results you should also take Chondroitin, as this attracts fluid to the cartilage, to help prevent it drying out. You could also use Supabee pollen and/or evening primrose oil.

Sick of those nasty coughs and colds?
Want a natural product that works?
Colostrum contains life-supporting immune and growth factors (hormones), and a perfect combination of vitamins and minerals for health - just as nature supplies them. Abeeco Colostrum Life Food is produced in New Zealand and collected only from New Zealand cows that are pasture-fed, pesticide, antibiotic and hormone free. New Zealand colostrum is internationally recognized as being the best colostrum in the world!
Because calves are born without any immunity to airborne, disease-causing organisms, their mothers colostrum must contain a very large amount of immune and health factors. As a result bovine (cow) colostrum has approx 20 times the factors of human colostrum, making it the richest source of colostrum available and a very powerful natural immune system enhancer.
What two of our many happy customers have to say about their experiences with Colostrum Life Food....
"I started taking colostrum about two years ago. I was having some immune problems, colds all the time. I felt crappy all the time. I work 80 — 100 hours a week. I’m a single parent. I run my own business. Every time someone looked at me cross-eyed I would start sneezing and coughing. Someone told me about colostrum. All I knew about it was from when my wife was having our children. I thought you gotta be crazy, but I started feeling better the next day. I haven’t had a chill, flu or a cough in two years. This is the greatest stuff I’ve seen in my life. I don’t care what anyone says,I’ll keep taking it." Nick D.
"I live in Japan and the recent dramatic rise in hay fever allergies over the last few years has been quite alarming. In the season it seems as if about 20% of the Tokyo population are hay fever sufferers and that number is rapidly on the rise. Moreover, the Tokyo Metropolitan Agency has estimated that this years pollen from the culprit local cedar trees are going to be producing 3 times the amount of pollen usually produced. I have had a cold free winter and have been taking colostrum daily. My all round energy levels are also higher as I am pretty enthusiastic about colostrum." W. Stewart Tokyo, Japan
What is Colostrum?
Colostrum is the pre-milk fluid produced from the mammary glands during the first 24-48 hours after birth. It provides essential growth and immune factors that insure health and vitality. Thousands of studies have been done on colostrum and results have indicated that the components in colostrum have many benefits (in addition to those discussed above) including, increased mental alertness, regulation of mood swings, improved resilience against stress, increased vitality and stamina, strengthens bones, aids with fat loss and helps create lean muscle, helps heal and protect the gut, helps with anti-inflammatory conditions, neurological disorders and allergies, helps fight acne causing bacteria and accelerates wound/tissue healing, and has a potent anti-aging effect.
Colostrum is not a drug, rather a food designed by nature. There are no known drug interactions and there is no known toxicity level. There are no known side effects even when taken in very large quantities.
Why New Zealand Colostrum?
New Zealands colostrum is internationally recognized as being the best colostrum in the world. Why?
The colostrum is collected from pasture-fed cows that are pesticide, antibiotic and hormone free.
NZ colostrum is transported in a fresh chilled state straight from the farm to the processing plant which preserves its active ingredients. In other countries, colostrum is often stored for periods of time prior to processing (due to their collection processes), and is therefore often frozen which may cause damage to the active components.
New Zealand milk products are renowned worldwide for their quality and consistency in both manufacture and supply.
Our temperate climate combined with our farming practices make New Zealand the best supplier of colostrum.
Recommended Dosage:
Adults: 2 to 4 capsules twice daily on an empty stomach with water.
Children: 1 to 2 capsules twice daily or as professionally advised.
***The capsules may be opened and sprinkled into a drink.

What part of the plant does the oil come from?
It comes from the seed of the flower. The seeds are very small, so it takes a lot of seeds to get sufficient oil. This seeds of the EPO are cold pressed, which preserves the full medicinal benefits of this oil. A high % of oil is extracted by heat, which destroys it, making it toxic to the body.
What part of the oil is beneficial to my health?
Evening Primrose Oil contains essential fatty acids EFA's, but in particularly the rare Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA).
EFA's are compound that our body cannot produce and they must be taken in through the diet. EFA's are involved in all bodily functions. Many factors interfere with the absorption of EFA's, such as stress, illness and pain.

A lack of these will result in general poor health and can eventually lead to a disease condition.

It takes 2-3 months to top up depleted levels of EFA's, so do not expect major changes before this time. Take 1 or 2 capsules once or twice a day - more for more serious problems.

"I have been meaning to write to you for some time now to tell you how fantastic your Liquid Joint Formula has been for me.

After speaking to you, I decided to try the Liquid Joint Formula and cannot believe the difference I feel in myself........I am 76 years old and feel 10 years younger thanks to you."
Jean Johnstone, Christchurch.
Healthy joints require healthy cartilage. Cartilage covers the ends of the bones making up a joint acting as a lubricated shock-absorber allowing for smooth pain-free motion.
If the cartilage deteriorates, whether from injury, overuse or general wear and tear, movement becomes painful and restricted, reducing mobility and interfering with daily activities. As the cartilage breaks down the underlying bone is exposed and over time bony growths can form which contributes to pain and swelling.
What are the main ingredients in Liquid Joint Formula?
Glucosamine Sulphate
Glucosamine is a natural substance derived from crab and shrimp shells. It's found in the body and utilized in the production of tendons, ligaments, connective tissue and joint cartilage. In most cases, the joints produce sufficient glucosamine to keep the cartilage in good repair, but if not, the cartilage dries out, degenerates, and cracks. Left unprotected, the joints then become swollen, stiff, inflamed, tender, and painful.
Chondroitin
Acts as a magnet to help attract fluid to the cartilage. The fluid acts as a spongy shock absorber and transports nutrients to the cartilage.
MSM - Methyl Sulphonyl Methane
A naturally occurring compound found in nerve and connective tissue. Useful in maintaining pain free joints and for lubrication.
Who would benefit from taking this product?
Those with arthritis, osteoarthritis, sporting injuries to the joints, general wear and tear to the joints/cartilage, ligament and tendon damage.
Anyone recovering from an injury, after an operation and during recuperation, with sciatica and disc problems.
By athletes as a preventative measure in case of joint overuse.

About Omega-3 Fish Oil
It is impossible to overstate the benefits of Omega-3 Fish Oil. Benefits of fish oil range from lowering cholesterol, to reducing pain and inflammation, to improved cognitive and motor development in infants - more about the benefits in a minute.
Fish oil contains (in abundant quantities) two Omega-3 Essential Fatty Acids called EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). They are called Essential Fatty Acids because the body is unable to produce them and they must come from the diet. These two Essential Fatty Acids are critical to maintaining good health.
A diet deficient in Omega-3 (DHA's and EPA's in particular) results in cell membrane dysfuntion. Cell membrane dysfuntion is a critical factor in the development of virtually every chronic disease, especially cancer, diabeties, arthritis, and heart disease.
It is important to maintain an appropriate balance of omega-3 and omega-6 (another essential fatty acid derived from food such as vegetable oils, margarine and dressings) in the diet as these two substances work together to promote health. An inappropriate balance of these essential fatty acids contributes to the development of disease while a proper balance helps maintain and even improve health. A healthy diet should consist of roughly three times more omega-6 fatty acids than omega-3 fatty acids. The typical Western diet however tends to contain approximately 20 times more omega-6 fatty acids than omega-3 fatty acids!
It is generally recommended that you consume approx 300 mg of EPA, and 200 mg of DHA daily (1-2 capsules of Abeeco Fish Oil). You need to eat about 1kg of tinned fish every day to get the equivalent of this! But of course, eating this much tinned fish would increase the risk of mercury poisoning.
Many fish oils are contaminated because the fish that are used to produce the fish oils are contaminated. This is due to the fact that the vast majority of ocean waters in the world suffer varying levels of pollutants. Therefore it's important to buy a product that sources its fish from the purest waters and that uses the process of molecular distillation, which will remove any existing impurities.
Abeeco fish oil contains oil from unfarmed cold water fish sourced from some of the cleanest waters in the world - the pristine waters off the coast of Clean Green New Zealand. The fish oil has undergone a filtering process removing environmental pollutants and toxins, and have been tested for heavy metals (including mercury) to ensure an extremely high standard.
More on the benefits of Omega-3 Fish Oil?
As mentioned, it is impossible to overstate the benefits of Omega-3 Fish Oil. There is an abundant amount of research on this subject and more information comes to light everyday. Studies have indicated the following benefits:
Reduced Pain and Inflammation
Omega 3 fatty acids, particularly EPA, have a very positive effect on your inflammatory response. By regulating your body's inflammation cycle they help prevent and relieve painful conditions like arthritis, prostatitis and cystitis.
Cardiovascular Health
Omega 3 fatty acids have been proven to work wonders for your heart and arteries. They help to lower cholesterol, tryglicerides, LDLs and blood pressure, while at the same time increasing good HDL cholesterol. This can add years to your life expectancy. They also help protect against heart attacks and strokes.
Infant Development - Smarter Babies - Pregnancy
Studies suggest that taking Omega-3 fatty acids, particularly DHA, during the final stages of pregnancy protects the spinal cord, heart and eyes and improves cognitive, and motor development in offspring. Mothers are also said to be less prone to post partum depression or mood change, and to recover from pregnancy more quickly.
Improved Brain Function/Mental ability
Research suggest that Omega-3 fatty acids improve memory, reasoning and focus and helps with learning and concentration problems. It may also help with the battle against Alzheimer's.
Decreased Depression
Research studies indicate that omega 3 fish oil supplements help to alleviate the symptoms of depression, bipolar and psychosis.
Reduced risk of some Cancers
There is a growing body of evidence that suggests marine Omega-3 Essential Fatty Acids reduce the risk of prostate, breast, liver, colon and oesophageal cancers.
Weight Loss
Many human and animal studies over the last 10 years have indicated that the DHA's and EPA's found in fish oil may help to aid fat loss by improving the blood flow to muscles during exercise.
Maintain Healthy skin, bones, hair, teeth and eyes
Omega-3 fish oil has a part to play in the maintenance of healthy teeth, bones, hair, eyes, and skin. It is reported to help reduce the severity of symptoms in Eczema sufferers.
Who should take Omega-3 Fish Oil
Everyone unless you're a vegetarian, vegan or allergic to fish. If this is the case then you should look at an alternative such as Flaxseed oil.
Ingredients/Dosage
Per capsule
Natural fish oil 1g (1000mg)
Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) 180mg
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) 120mg

An inappropriate balance of these essential fatty acids contributes to the development of disease while a proper balance helps maintain and even improve health. A healthy diet should consist of roughly three times more omega-6 fatty acids than omega-3 fatty acids. The typical Western diet however tends to contain approximately 20 times more omega-6 fatty acids than omega-3 fatty acids!
It is generally recommended that you consume approx 300 mg of EPA, and 200 mg of DHA daily (1-2 capsules of Abeeco Fish Oil). You need to eat about 1kg of tinned fish every day to get the equivalent of this! But of course, eating this much tinned fish would increase the risk of mercury poisoning.
Many fish oils are contaminated because the fish that are used to produce the fish oils are contaminated. This is due to the fact that the vast majority of ocean waters in the world suffer varying levels of pollutants. Therefore it's important to buy a product that sources its fish from the purest waters and that uses the process of molecular distillation, which will remove any existing impurities.
Abeeco fish oil contains oil from unfarmed cold water fish sourced from some of the cleanest waters in the world - the pristine waters off the coast of Clean Green New Zealand. The fish oil has undergone a filtering process removing environmental pollutants and toxins, and have been tested for heavy metals (including mercury) to ensure an extremely high standard.
More on the benefits of Omega-3 Fish Oil?
As mentioned, it is impossible to overstate the benefits of Omega-3 Fish Oil. There is an abundant amount of research on this subject and more information comes to light everyday. Studies have indicated the following benefits:
Reduced Pain and Inflammation
Omega 3 fatty acids, particularly EPA, have a very positive effect on your inflammatory response. By regulating your body's inflammation cycle they help prevent and relieve painful conditions like arthritis, prostatitis and cystitis.
Cardiovascular Health
Omega 3 fatty acids have been proven to work wonders for your heart and arteries. They help to lower cholesterol, tryglicerides, LDLs and blood pressure, while at the same time increasing good HDL cholesterol. This can add years to your life expectancy. They also help protect against heart attacks and strokes.
Infant Development - Smarter Babies - Pregnancy
Studies suggest that taking Omega-3 fatty acids, particularly DHA, during the final stages of pregnancy protects the spinal cord, heart and eyes and improves cognitive, and motor development in offspring. Mothers are also said to be less prone to post partum depression or mood change, and to recover from pregnancy more quickly.
Improved Brain Function/Mental ability
Research suggest that Omega-3 fatty acids improve memory, reasoning and focus and helps with learning and concentration problems. It may also help with the battle against Alzheimer's.
Decreased Depression
Research studies indicate that omega 3 fish oil supplements help to alleviate the symptoms of depression, bipolar and psychosis.
Reduced risk of some Cancers
There is a growing body of evidence that suggests marine Omega-3 Essential Fatty Acids reduce the risk of prostate, breast, liver, colon and oesophageal cancers.
Weight Loss
Many human and animal studies over the last 10 years have indicated that the DHA's and EPA's found in fish oil may help to aid fat loss by improving the blood flow to muscles during exercise.
Maintain Healthy skin, bones, hair, teeth and eyes
Omega-3 fish oil has a part to play in the maintenance of healthy teeth, bones, hair, eyes, and skin. It is reported to help reduce the severity of symptoms in Eczema sufferers.
Who should take Omega-3 Fish Oil
Everyone unless you're a vegetarian, vegan or allergic to fish. If this is the case then you should look at an alternative such as Flaxseed oil.

Strong bones and teeth
Assists with Weight Loss
Supports muscle contraction
Calcium is the most abundant mineral found in the body and most of it is found in our bones. It is one of the most important minerals involved in the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis. Since magnesium works closely with calcium to play an important role in maintaining healthy bones and contributes to increased bone density, this formation makes an ideal (easily absorbed) supplement to take.
There is a great deal of convincing evidence showing a correlation between Calcium intake and losing fat. A diet low in calcium has been shown to lead to an increase in body fat while a diet high in calcium has been shown to reduce body fat.
You get calcium in your diet from dairy products and leafy vegetables. It is always best to get your vitamin and mineral needs from diet where possible, however this can be difficult (particularly for those who can't eat dairy) and supplements are often needed to compensate for the shortfall.
Magnesium is often regarded as the partner of calcium. Whereas calcium is involved in the contraction of muscles, magnesium is involved in the relaxation of muscles. Magnesium assists with the utilization of calcium and other minerals and vitamins.
Most people do not get enough magnesium in their diets, especially if they eat large amounts of processed foods in which much of the magnesium is removed.
An influx of calcium can leave you constipated unless you take it with magnesium.
