ABSTRACT:

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to hydration compositions for human or animal bodies (hereinafter referred to as “body or bodies”). “Hydration” in this context may be defined as a state of optimal water management in the body.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
It is well accepted and established that water is the most abundant nutrient found in the body, accounting for roughly two-thirds of the adult body weight. It is also the most important nutrient and is the primary transporter of other nutrients throughout the body. It is necessary for all building functions and all body processes including digestion, absorption, circulation, brain function and excretion.
Energy and vitality depend on how well the body breaks down, assimilates and converts food to energy. Simply eating well or taking nutritional supplements will make little difference if the body is not able to digest and fully absorb all the nutrients consumed.
It has accordingly been recognised that all processes in the body depend on water. However, this does not mean just water intake, but rather water utilization or absorption at the cellular level.
Should the body's hydration become compromised, fatigue may be one of the first a lost obvious signs. Others include depression, poor digestion, joint problems, aging skin and general skin problems, candida difficulties, constipation, difficulty concentrating and an aversion to drinking water or unsatisfied thirst.
OBJECTIVES OF THE INVENTION
It is the primary objective of the present invention to provide hydration compositions to enhance hydration in the body.
It is a further objective of the invention to provide compositions which enhance oxygen uptake at a cellular level.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly, the invention provides a hydration composition for the body essentially including the synergistic combination of:
(a) Hydrastis canadensis (common name—Golden Seal)
(b) Ulmus fulva (common name—Slippery Elm), and
(c) Smilax ornata (common name—Sarsaparilla).
Preferably, the above composition is prepared in homoeopathic form.
The above composition may be prepared by any one of the following methods comprising:
(i) forming separate homoeopathic preparations from components (a), (b) and (c) mentioned hereinabove, and subsequently mixing said homoeopathic preparations;
(ii) mixing extracts of components (a), (b) and (c) and forming the resultant mixture into a homoeopathic composition; and
(iii) preparing a first homoeopathic composition as in (i) and (ii) above (with optional ingredients mentioned hereinbelow), and further diluting said first composition to form a second homoeopathic composition.
PREFERRED FEATURES OF THE INVENTION
Advantageously, the hydration compositions may comprise one or more additional ingredients selected from homoeopathic and non-homoeopathic preparations, e.g., vanilla, “nervacomp”, chlorophyll, echinacea augustifolia, opuntia vulgaris, micellized alpha-tocopherol, and iodine. The term “nervacomp” is a homoeopathic mixture comprising:
Ignatia 8c
Hyoscyamus nig 8c
Oenanthe crocata 8c
Passiflora 8c
Stramonium 8c
Zincum met 8c
The compositions may also advantageously contain essential oils, e.g., French organic lavender and frankincense; Australian bush flower essences, e.g., Peach Flowered Tea Tree, Sturt Desert Rose, Slender Rice Flow, Alpine Mint Bush, Tall Yellow Top, Green Spider Orchid, Red Helmet Orchid and Wedding Bush; Bach Flower Essences, e.g., Oak, Larch, Chinese Plumbago, Aspen, Clematis, Water Violet, Beech, Rock Water; and amino acids, e.g. histidine, glutamine, arginine, glycine, lysine, leucine, isoleucine, valine, methionine and aspartic acid.
The compositions are preferably formulated so as to be (i) gender specific and (ii) time-of-day specific (i.e. upon-rising, upon-retiring) to account for (i) the known differences in water metabolism in men and women in response to sex hormones and (ii) optimisation of the support of water management in the sleeping and waking cycles of metabolism. The upon-retiring compositions support the transport of oxygen into cells further improving the clearance of metabolic waste products and enhancing cellular energy production.
Advantageously components (a) to (c) mentioned hereinabove are present or are used in the homoeopathic compositions, in approximately equal proportions by volume.
