WHAT IS THIS PRODUCT GOOD FOR

Mega Red Clover Combination by TerraVita is a blend of herbal ingredients including Red Clover, Dandelion, Burdock and Buckthorn. Buckthorn, or alder, is a tall shrub native to northern Europe. The bark of alder buckthorn is removed, cut into small pieces, and dried for one year before being used medicinally.
Buckthorn has been used as a cathartic laxative in Northern and Central Europe for centuries. It is still widely used today for constipation and resulting conditions such as hemorrhoids and anal fissures. Buckthorn stimulates contractions of the colon (peristalsis) and increases water content during stool formation.
Burdock root, native to Asia and Europe, is the primary source of many herbal preparations. It as a popular root vegetable in Japanese markets (called "gobo") and has been used for centuries as a staple in traditional Chinese medicine for conditions like tonsillitis and measles.
Dandelion is widely considered an invasive, unattractive weed, but must be regarded as a Godsend to the manufacturers of lawn herbicides. While the dandelion's efficacy in destroying a perfect green, carpeted lawn is undisputed, its efficacy for health matters is - or should be - of greater interest.
Dandelion has widely been used in foods, wines, beverages, and health preparations of all kinds worldwide. Its medicinal actions seem to target the digestive and eliminative systems of the body. Animal studies demonstrate extremely positive diuretic and bile-producing effects whereby dandelion extracts outperform chemical drugs without the side effects.
Unfortunately, human trials are non-existent in these areas. Research in humans that has focused on health conditions such as cancer and diabetes has yielded positive results. However, these positive findings are attributed to herbal blends and, consequently, dandelion's specific effect on these results can only be surmised.
Red clover is a multi-stemmed perennial that thrives in humid, grassy meadows throughout the world. It is much larger than its familiar relative, white clover, which is the low-growing, and vigorously spreading lawn weed. Both, however, exhibit a similar "trifolium" (three leaf) pattern and white arrowhead-shaped leaf markings. It is the compact, pink flower tops of the red clover plant that are dried and used medicinally - as they have been for centuries.

I'm not sure what Dr. Connolly's herbal recommendations for psoriasis are, but the ingredients in Mega Red Clover Combination have been widely recognized by a variety of sources: Author, lecturer, and medical herbalist David L. Hoffmann B.Sc. (Hons), M.N.I.M.H. has stated that red clover is one of the most useful remedies for chronic skin conditions including psoriasis. He has also said that burdock root, one of the key components in this product, "...may be most effective for psoriasis if used over a long period of time."

Lost Book of Enki: Memoirs and Prophecies of an Extraterrestrial God
Publisher's Notes Will the past become our future? Is humankind destined to repeat the events that occurred on another planet, far away from Earth? Zecharia Sitchin's bestselling series The Earth Chronicles provided humanity's side of the story-as recorded on ancient clay tablets and other Sumerian artifacts—concerning our origins at the hands of the Anunnaki, "those who from heaven to earth came." In The Lost Book of Enki, we can view this saga from a different perspective through this richly conceived autobiographical account of Lord Enki, an Anunnaki god, who tells the story of these extraterrestrials' arrival on Earth from the 12th planet Nibiru. The object of their colonization: gold to replenish the dying atmosphere of their home planet. Finding this precious metal results in the Anunnaki creation of homo sapiens—the human race—to mine this important resource. In his previous works, Sitchin compiled the complete story of the Anunnaki's impact on human civilization in peacetime and in war from the fragments scattered throughout Sumerian, Akkadian, Babylonian, Assyrian, Hittite, Egyptian, Canaanite, and Hebrew sources—the "myths" of all ancient peoples in the old world as well as the new. Missing from these accounts, however, was the perspective of the Anunnaki themselves. What was life like on their own planet? What motives propelled them to settle on Earth-and what drove them from their new home? Convinced of the existence of a now lost book that formed the basis of ancient Sumerian texts holding the answers to these questions, the author began his search for evidence. Through exhaustive research of primary sources, he has here re-created tales as the memoirs ofEnki, the leader of these first "astronauts." What takes shape is the story of a world of mounting tensions, deep rivalries, and sophisticated scientific knowledge that is only today being confirmed. An epic tale of gods and men unfolds, challenging every assumption we hold about our creation, our past, and our future.

Mega Red Clover Combination
It has only been a few months into my trial to establish the efficacy of this product as a treatment for psoriasis, as recommended by Dr Robert E Connolly.....author of 'Psoriasis can Be Cured'. I am advised to take 'Red clover' in conjunction with a very restrictive, low carb, high protein diet. An existing heart condition restricts intake of protein as well, consequently, my diet is not perfect for the purposes of this experiment. I have decided to take a very long term approach to correct a problem that I have had long term. Initial efficacy is very promising with a marked improvement in my psoriasis in some areas. I am hopeful and grateful.

Also Recommended: Top marks for very efficient and prompt sales, and congratulations on your after sales service. I have been in business all my working life and I know the difference.
Well done
First of all I am so thankful and at the same re-assure my personal views that online shopping are safe & secure when website sites like yours (ZooScape.com) proved it to me once more. Regarding the products I purchased from you (Mega Red Clover combination & Digestive Enzymes-Daily Essential -Full Spectrum Activity-500mg) all I can say is that you should not stop selling those food supplements because for the first time after 10 years, my husband's chronic skin problem have shown a lot of improvement. He is now very positive that his prayers were answered by using your websites & products as intruments to heal his long time skin disorder. Surely I will continue to patronage your products. Thanks a lot.
[Editor: Thank you for your very kind words. We wish you all the best and continued success!]

My Review
I'm following the eating plan from Dr Connolly for psoriasis along with taking the capsules. Have only been using them since the 26th of March 2008 but have found them very easy to take and no aftertaste at all. Already noticed a slight difference in skin appearance - I'm healthier looking - I would say it's due to a combination of eating better and taking the capsules. It will be interesting to see how well they've worked in the next couple of months.
