What are fibroids?
"Fibroids (also called myomas) are non-cancerous growths in or on the muscular wall of the womb (the myometrium). They can vary in number and size, according to the individual. Doctors will refer to the size of a fibroid in terms of a developing baby that size – in other words, 12 weeks. Some fibroids can be as small as a pea, but others can be as large as a...

REMEMBER:"Fibroids (also called myomas) are non-cancerous growths in or on the muscular wall of the womb (the myometrium). They can vary in number and size, according to the individual.

Some fibroids can be as small as a pea, but others can be as large as a seven- or eight-month-old foetus.
"Fibroids are given different names depending on where and how they grow:
- Submucosal fibroids grow on the inside of the womb and extend into the uterine cavity
- Intramural fibroids grow within the uterine wall (the wall of the womb)
- Subserol fibroids grow on the outside of the womb, on the lining between the uterus and the pelvic cavity
- Penduculated fibroids can be attached either to the inside or outside wall of the womb, and they are characterised by a stalk
"Fibroids are very common and can affect 20 percent of women over the age of 30. They are not common in women under the age of 20, except...

Does all this really make a difference?
When you take vitamins, minerals, and herbs, you aim to give your body the tools to heal itself and maintain good health.
Unfortunately, many supplements nowadays contain unnecessary and potentially harmful substances, making your body work harder to eliminate them.
You may not realise that they can be full of ‘nasties’ - non-active ingredients - like, fillers, bulking and anti-caking agents, disintegrants and lubricants.
These chemicals are in there to help the manufacturing process flow through the machines.
Good for the machines maybe but certainly not good for your body.
If your body expends energy dealing with these substances, it may divert energy from other areas essential for maintaining or restoring good health, potentially causing additional health problems and low energy.
It's crucial that the vitamins, minerals, and herbs you consume contain only the highest quality ingredients possible and are Free From all nasties.
Not all supplements are made equal, and knowing what to look for is important.
Sounds daunting doesn’t it?
But don’t worry because, if you don’t have the time or inclination, (or a degree in chemistry), to go round reading labels on every pot of vitamins or minerals, Dr Glenville has already done the work and scrutinised the labels for you.
And only when she is completely satisfied that the products are Free From all the ‘nasties’ and in their most bio-available form and at the highest safe dosage level will she award it her ‘Seal of Approval’.’.
You can rest assured that all NHP supplements have Dr Glenville’s exclusive ‘Seal of Approval’ and are safe, effective and healthy for you.
