Our Full Spectrum Approach™

Guaranteeing Quality, Effectiveness & Safety

With a wide range of natural remedies and treatments on the market today, we understand that it can sometimes be difficult to make sense of it all. We also know that since there is no standardization in the herbal industry, there is no guarantee as to the consistency, safety or potency of the herbal remedies you buy.

That is until now!

At Native Remedies, all of our remedies are developed using the Full Spectrum Approach (FSA) to ensure you get the quality, potency and protection you deserve. Our Full Spectrum Approach consists of a set of standards and processes that combine wild crafted herbs, cGMP manufacturing and a full spectrum extraction method.

Our 3 Point Promise

1. Formulation

The first step in formulating a new remedy is always determining a customer’s needs and to match them with natural ingredients that have proven effectiveness.

In doing so, we draw on a vast body of documented knowledge about traditional medicine, as well as more recent clinical research into herbal remedies and proven homeopathic ingredients. Together with a team of natural health experts, the final formulations are compiled and decided upon.

2. Raw Material Quality & Source

All of the raw ingredients we use in our remedies are purchased from reputable suppliers and our ingredients are organically grown whenever possible.

We also ensure that wild-crafted herbs are grown far away from sources of pollution and electricity pylons, and that their presence does not compromise the integrity and balance of their environment.

All of our raw ingredients are purchased with an accompanying Certificate of Analysis. On receipt, they go into quarantine until further in-house tests are completed and released by our responsible pharmacists, ensuring that the herbs are fresh and not contaminated by any impure substances (e.g. heavy metals or bacterial infections).

3. Manufacturing

We manufacture all our remedies in an FDA registered facility under sterile conditions to ensure that no contamination occurs.

All our remedies are manufactured in-house under the supervision of our expert team and none are brought in from elsewhere. This enables us to have full control over quality and safety.

All of our products are then manufactured according to the principles of GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) ensuring the consistency, safety and effectiveness of our remedies.

Full Spectrum Method vs. 'Standardized' Extracts

You may have heard the term 'standardized' extract used in relation to herbal remedies, but do you know what this means?

Many pharmaceutical companies have begun manufacturing herbal remedies using a process of extraction whereby harsh chemicals are employed to extract the active ingredients of medicinal herbs.

You will recognize these extracts by the usage of the words 'standardized' extract on the labels. This method of manufacturing is often cited as being more scientific and able to produce a superior product with controlled and guaranteed amounts of active ingredients in each product.

Contrary to these claims, this process is not approved by the manufacturers of holistic medicines. One of the reasons is that the process of extracting so-called 'active ingredients' and isolating them from the rest of the herb is one that has resulted in an increase in side effects, as the herb in this way loses its natural ability to protect against side effects.

In addition, many manufacturers use all parts of the plants to create standardized extracts, whereas herbalists know that only certain parts of some herbs should be used.

In the case of Ginkgo Biloba, for example, it is well known that the seeds of this plant are poisonous and can cause seizures and that only the leaves should be used. Standardized extracts of Ginkgo Biloba have been associated with the risk of seizure in some trials.

The most recent example of the dangers of using this manufacturing process includes the development of liver toxicity from using Kava Kava extract, an herb which has been safely used for hundreds of years!

It must also be added that this process of extraction requires the use of harsh chemicals and solvents, traces of which are difficult to remove completely from the final product.

To us, it makes little sense for companies to go the natural route, while being unable to guarantee that their product is free of contamination with chemicals known to be harmful to health!

Nicotine addiction is a serious dependency that requires a serious approach to quitting!

Quitting isn't easy and each time you try to stop smoking and fail, it becomes more and more difficult.

There are physical and psychological reasons quitting gets harder. Physically your body builds up a resistance and psychologically you begin to see yourself as a failure - someone who cannot beat this addiction.

If you need help and support to quit smoking you are not alone, most people do. While it is possible to go "cold turkey" and quit without assistance, it isn't for everyone and it can be very difficult to do. So difficult in fact, that the number of people who break the habit without help is very small.

Stop smoking in eight weeks and never smoke again!

"Compared to other addictions, smokers who want to quit receive less support and less sympathy than any other addicts. Yet nicotine addiction is one of the most difficult addictions to beat. I smoked from the age of 16 and 'quit' smoking many times, always to start again after a few months. Only with the help of natural remedies and lifestyle changes could I stop permanently. I haven't had a cigarette in 5 years. Follow the same steps as I did and you can do it too!"
- Michele Carelse, Clinical Psychologist

How does the Stop Smoking Program work?

STEP 1 - Preparing to Quit (4 weeks)

The first thing you need to do is determine your quit date! Preparation is very important in this 3-step Stop Smoking process.

You will need to start using Rx-Hale Tablets one month before the quit date you choose. This will help prevent depression and anxiety, and help stabilize your blood sugar levels and avoid excess weight gain.

During this preparation phase it is important to identify your vulnerable situations and makes changes while you are still smoking normally. Begin to listen to the Letting Go CD to help release your attachment to those situations and habits as you realize them.

Tips for Success during Step 1
It is a good idea to start an exercise program or start a new hobby. This will help to occupy your mind and keep you physically busy during this preparation process.

STEP 2 - Breaking the Habit (4 weeks)

Once the preparation month is over, and your quit date arrives, it's important to get rid of all of your nicotine. Throw away, trash or burn all cigarettes, ashtrays, lighters and anything else you associate with your smoking habit!

Continue with the exercise program and/or hobby you established throughout your 4 week preparation process. Also, it is important to continue taking the Rx-Hale Tablets.

Begin taking the Crave-Rx Drops as recommended (three to six times daily) to help reduce nicotine cravings, control your appetite and prevent the unnecessary weight gain that is often associated with quitting smoking.

During this quitting phase, if you begin to experience mood swings or irritability you should use Triple Complex NicoTonic Tablets as needed for support. They will help reduce restlessness, bad mood and agitation.

Continue to use the Letting Go CD to release the desire and habit.

Tips for Success during Step 2
It is important to reward your success at the end of this 4 week process. Save all the money you would have spent on cigarettes during these 4 weeks and once they have passed have fun buying yourself a gift.

STEP 3 - Staying Nicotine-free

You are a Non-Smoker! Now that you have quit smoking and broken the nicotine addiction, maintenance is essential.

Although the physical addiction to most substances is cured or broken after 3 or 4 weeks, you now have to overcome your psychological addiction!

Continue taking the Rx-Hale Tablets and Crave Rx Drops for at least three months during your maintenance phase. Do your best to stick to your exercise program and have fun enjoying your new hobby. If you feel restless or irritable, use Triple Complex NicoTonic Tablets to calm yourself and listen to the Letting Go CD or mp3 as needed.

Try to be on guard at all times and avoid thoughts like "it's only one cigarette". One cigarette is actually one too many for any person who had successfully quit smoking!

Tips for Success during Step 3
Don't forget to reward yourself at the end of every month. Have fun and celebrate your Quitting Anniversary.

How has the Stop Smoking Program helped others?

"As you asked us to write in and tell you how it went, I wanted to share with you that I have not smoked for 9 weeks now. Using the Rx-Hale tablets for the first month before I stopped really helped to prepare me. When the day came I was ready and felt very confident. Like you said it was not easy and I am grateful that you said that because I expected to struggle, but this time my struggles paid off - unlike other attempts. My worst enemy when I tried before was my mood swings which ALWAYS took me back to the cigarettes! I found that sucking the NicoTonic tablets was so soothing and really helped me to calm down. Where I am now, the craving is much better and I think the addiction is gone. Now I don't crave cigarettes but I still MISS them!!! I know I have a long road ahead of me, but this is the first time I feel like I will succeed. I still feel confident and so much healthier and I want to recommend your products and the program to ANYONE who wants to seriously stop smoking."

—Monica Ann. (did not use the CD to release the desire to smoke)

"This has really really helped me! I am (was!) a 20 a day guy and have been for many years....... After a bad bout of headaches I went to my doc who diagnosed blood pressure and said if I did not change my habits I would kill myself! Didn't want to do that, so I looked around and came across your website. I can honestly say that I haven't looked back - if I had known it would be so easy, I would have stopped long ago and saved myself all the expense and damage to my body. I guess I have to consider myself lucky - things could have been very different."

—Rob K.

"I wanted to let you know that it has been four weeks and I still haven't had a cigarette! I have NEVER lasted more than three days. There have been up days and down days, but I have survived. I feel as determined as I did when I started and I am still determined that I never want to start smoking again. My body still craves and I get ratty as hell - but the NicoTonic tablets and CD help tremendously with that and are my lifesaver! Thanks for a wonderful and healthy way to stop smoking!"

—BMH
