You’ll usually notice signs of water retention in the abdomen, ankles, feet and hands. It often causes uncomfortable bloating and an increase in ‘water weight’.

Normally, the body cleverly balances fluid levels through a complex system involving hormones, the circulatory and lymphatic systems – as well as the kidney, liver and urinary systems all playing a part.

But if any one of these stops working properly, fluid retention, also known as oedema, can occur.

Symptoms are more likely in the hot summer months; during prolonged periods of inactivity, such as a long hall flight, or around your period. And it’s the last thing you need when you are about to hit the beach in your bikini!

HRI Water Balance is a unique formulation of Dandelion root, Buchu and Uva-Ursi herbs which work in synergy to expel excess fluid from the body. The tablets can start working within 2-4 hours, helping to reduce the uncomfortable bloat and excess water weight. It is however important to stay hydrated when taking these tablets by drinking around 2 litres of water daily.

The skin is the largest organ of the human body and the first line of protection against disease and infections. It is also constantly renewing itself in a cycle of around 28 days for new skin cells to form and old ones to shed off.

This is important to keep in mind when starting a course of herbal medicines or supplements as results are unlikely to be seen overnight. Try giving your skin a full 28 days to start seeing the benefits, and then continue the treatment for a few more skin cycles until the problem has cleared.

HRI Clear Complexion is a unique formulation of Blue Flag and Burdock root; herbs which have been used for centuries to treat skin conditions such as: Spots, Acne, Pimples, and Blemishes

The tablets are easy to swallow and unlike more topical medications, heal skin problems from the inside out. HRI Clear Complexion has a THR (Traditional Herbal Registration) with the MHRA for quality and safety standards.

Around 1 in 4 people in the UK will experience a mental health problem, such as anxiety or depression, each year. It is a common disorder and can exhibit in a range of ways, such as low mood, loss of interest or pleasure, low self-worth, sleep disturbances and poor concentration.

Research suggests that St John’s wort works in a similar way to commonly prescribed antidepressants, SSRIs (selective serotonin uptake inhibitors) often known as Prozac, by ensuring the brain doesn’t use up all of its ‘feel good chemicals’. It has been found to inhibit the uptake of noradrenaline and dopamine, two other neurotransmitters that, like serotonin, produce feelings of happiness, pleasure and satisfaction.

HRI Good Mood tablets contain quality extracts of this potent herb to support feelings of mild anxiety and mild depression. Look out for the THR logo on St John’s Wort products to indicate Traditional Herbal Registration with the MHRA, for quality and safety standards.

The liver is responsible for filtering toxins in the body, converting them into waste products which can be safely expelled from the body. It also works to cleanse the blood and metabolise nutrients and medications.

After a heavy night of rich food and drinking, the liver needs to work hard to rid the body of toxins. At the same time, a big meal can take around 53 hours to be fully digested and leave the body as waste.

HRI Milk Thistle works to both support the healthy functioning of the liver and helps to relieve symptoms associated with indigestion or an upset stomach. The tablets have THR (Traditional Herbal Registration) with the MHRA for quality and safety standards and are the strongest dose in the UK market.

Having a strong immune system is key to fighting off colds and flu, however the cells which form our immune system need energy to function, and when our bodies are running low on battery, our defences can be weakened, and we become more vulnerable to infection.

HRI Coldcare is the only UK government registered THR product to combine a herbal medicine (Echinacea) with vitamins and minerals (vitamin C and zinc) for powerful immune support.
