Springtime Supplements has built a 40 year reputation on providing outstanding supplements for horses and dogs, but they believe humans should have the best in health too. They put the same level of care and attention into their line of products for people. Taking some of their most natural ingredients like their Ahiflower Oil, Astaxanthin, Bee Pollen, Joint Capsules and Tonic Blend, they’ve formulated several supplements that support overall human health. 

Sustainable Omegas

Ahiflower Oil is a nutritional supplement and food ingredient that delivers an unparalleled combination of essential omega 3, 6, 9 fatty acids that are essential for health, vitality and wellness. The oil derives from a single non-GMO plant. Human clinical trials show that it’s more effective than flax, chia, hemp, sach inchi, perilla, or echium seed oils. It also provides omega-3 benefits without depleting marine life and ecosystems. Plus, it has no fish taste or odor.

Ahiflower is sustainable and traceable. It’s a wild plant now being cultivated to demanding standards of sustainability and fully traceable to deliver all your essential, daily omega needs. It is produced under sustainable and environmentally-sound production methods. The proprietary Crop Assured 365® system assures identity preservation, traceability, and quality. When you commit to Ahiflower oil, both your body and the planet will thank you.

Increased Performance with an Antioxidant

If you’re looking for a top-quality  antioxidant, look no further than Astaxanthin. It provides a unique and powerful defense from free radical damage to the brain, nervous system, and eyes due to its ability to cross the blood-brain and blood-retinal barrier.

Astaxanthin is a reddish pigment that belongs to a group called carotenoids. It is found naturally in certain algae and is what gives shrimp, salmon, and other seafood their pink/red color. Oxidative stress causes damage to the cells, proteins, and DNA in your body. Astaxanthin is one of the world’s strongest antioxidants in free radical scavenging by 20x – 60x.

Astaxanthin helps the body maintain peak performance through increased endurance, energy, and strength. It plays multiple support roles, including recovery from exercise, cardiovascular function and circulatory system, skin structure and health, eye health, and the immune system. 

Total Joint Support

Joint health is something it seems every human can use help with. Springtime’s Joint Health Capsules contain chondroitin sulfate, glucosamine, MSM, and vitamin C to support healthy joints and inflammation response, such as one might normally experience after rigorous activity or with healthy aging. 

Chondroitin sulfate is a naturally occurring molecule found in the cartilage and connective tissues of people and animals. Chondroitin is the substance that enables cartilage to provide cushion to healthy joints, and it is what the body uses to make new cartilage. It also serves a vital role in the maintenance of healthy skin. Chondroitin can be taken as a supplement to maintain healthy cartilage, joint lubrication, and healthy skin, nails, and hair. 

Chondroitin varies depending on the source, and scientists have separated it into three distinct classes: A, B, and C. This is important because chondroitin A has greater health benefits than B or C, and some animal sources have more chondroitin A than others. For instance, chondroitin sulfate sourced from beef trachea cartilage (used by Springtime) has among the highest concentrations of chondroitin A. Conversely, some products on the market are labeled as 100% chondroitin but contain little to no chondroitin A, rendering them woefully ineffective. Adequate amounts of chondroitin are vital for normal joint function. 

Bee Pollen for Comprehensive Health

Bee-collected pollen, another staple of the Springtime lineup for over 30 years, is a superfood that contains protein, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and live enzymes for optimal health. he bee pollen that Springtime supplies is carefully selected for purity and flavor and batch tested for pesticides, heavy metals, biological contaminants, and more. 

Pollen contains greater concentrations of living enzymes than any other part of the plant. Scientists state that enzymes are absolutely essential for every biochemical function of the body. Enzymes are perhaps the most important of the health-giving plant factors. Enzymes are the essential triggers for the metabolic machinery of every living organism. The enzymes in raw foods are important because they help support the body’s own enzyme systems. Enzymes are the life principle of every living cell.

Bee pollen tastes great, too. It has a mildly fruity, nutty flavor. It’s great when added to cereal for the ultimate power breakfast.

Support Through Stress with Tonic

Finally, their Tonic Blend is a great way to add natural antioxidants and adaptogens into your diet to help the body’s processes function normally during physical and emotional stress. Tonic Blend’s ingredients combine the benefits of a high-end vitamin formula with the power of adaptogens, which help the body protect itself naturally from mental, physical, and environmental stressors. This product is completely unique to Springtime, and although it may cost a bit more than standard vitamin products, you can feel the difference.

One of Tonic Blend’s most important benefits is that it was designed to fight the irreversible effect of free radicals. Free radicals are atomic aberrations that can attack, damage, and even kill vital cell structures, which have negative impacts similar to advancing the aging process.

We need to be more concerned about this than ever before. The quality of our air, vegetation, and water are degenerating with time. Our bodies, which can normally cleanse themselves of free radicals, as well as germs and viruses, are under increasing attack from environmental pollutants, radiation, herbicides, alcohol, cigarette smoking, even sunlight, and exercise. Our bodies need all the help they can get in staying healthy.

Tonic Blend contains antioxidants that help trap and neutralize free radicals. Vitamins E & C, carotenoids, and minerals like selenium are among the full range of Tonic Blend’s antioxidants. In addition, Tonic Blend’s essential vitamins and minerals help aid in the quest for health. We may not be able to completely change our lifestyles, but with Tonic Blend’s help, we may be able to change our health for the better.
