Food supplements for men
On this page, discover Salugea supplements with functional, 100% natural ingredients suitable for men.
Sexual wellbeing supplement for men
Finding a good supplement for male sexual wellbeing is certainly no easy task. There are various options on the market. But how can you tell which product is the most suitable, one that combines effectiveness, safety and quality in its formulation?
Made with Maca, Ginseng and Muira Puama, Sincrovir by Salugea is the natural supplement with a specific formula for male vigour.
Its formulation contains no caffeine or stimulants; instead, it stimulates the body’s natural energy production thanks to L-Arginine[1] and L-Aspartic Acid[2], and it also supports the body against tiredness and stress thanks to Maca[3], Catuaba[4] and Ginseng[5].
In particular, Ginseng is useful on a sexual level, as it stimulates erotic perception and supports erectile function[6], just as Chilli Pepper stimulates energy production[7].
Maca and Muira Puama[8] support the body, providing greater strength and energy, and, thanks to their tonic and adaptogenic action, they can also act on even the most intense stress.
Mental wellbeing and support for men
Convinced that a satisfying sex life means nourishing not only the body but also the mind, we at Salugea developed Rilassa Mente, with specific active ingredients to support mood, such as Griffonia[9], Jujube[10], Lemon Balm[11] and Hawthorn[12].
Mood is certainly not a factor to be underestimated when it comes to sex. In particular:
- Lemon Balm promotes physical and emotional relaxation,
- Griffonia brings serenity, optimism and self-confidence by acting favourably on the production of serotonin[13], the “happy hormone”.
For mental wellbeing and support there is also Memosan, made with extracts of Bacopa[14], Centella[15], Rhodiola[16], Schisandra[17] and Reishi[18]. Its active ingredients promote concentration and sustained attention, nourishing the mind in a completely natural way.
In particular, Reishi, with no fewer than 400 active compounds, has a tonic and memory-protecting action, while Schisandra has an adaptogenic and antioxidant action.
Supplements for men over 50
Which supplements should men over 50 never go without? Those rich in antioxidants!
Have you ever heard of antioxidants? As it functions, the body releases reactive species which, if not neutralised, can irreversibly damage cells and tissues, causing them to age prematurely.
These reactive compounds are free radicals, and antioxidants are precisely the substances that can neutralise them.
By taking in antioxidants, you can help your body from within, supporting its natural repair mechanisms, which in the long term can become “worn out” through continuous use, and in this way delay cellular ageing.
Glutatione Forte brings together two powerful antioxidants in a single product, Reduced Glutathione[19] and Quercetin[20], at the maximum recommended daily intakes!
What’s more, thanks to Naringenin[21], Selenium[22] and the patented blend of active ingredients OxiP® (Bilberry[23], Gynostemma[24], Scutellaria[25], Fallopia[26]), the action on your body will be all-round, providing optimal support for a wide range of physiological functions by neutralising free radicals.
Thanks to Glutatione Forte’s formulation and the antioxidants it provides, you can:
- promote the clearance of free radicals and toxins from the body,
- support the immune system,
- promote the wellbeing of skin, hair and nails,
- feel more energy and mental clarity,
- preserve muscle function,
- counteract oxidative stress.
For an even greater antioxidant action, you can combine Glutatione Forte with:
- Salugea Organic Pomegranate Juice, made exclusively from organic Pomegranate[27], a fruit with an antioxidant, anti-degenerative and detoxifying action,
- Salugea Organic Maqui Juice, made by pressing organic Maqui[28], a fruit that can counteract premature ageing thanks to the antioxidant action of its natural components, and promote optimal tissue oxygenation.
Supplements for stress
Are you feeling under strain? Is stress giving you no respite, and do the 24 hours in a day never seem enough to get everything done?
Rilassa Mente is the Salugea supplement with a specific formula to ease states of tension and stress and to support mood. Its active ingredients come from plants such as Griffonia9, Jujube10, Hawthorn11 and Lemon Balm12, which work synergistically to support good mood, calm the mind and bring serenity (without causing drowsiness or dependence). This way, you’ll be able to cope with all your daily commitments.
Alongside Rilassa Mente, you can take Glutatione Forte. Thanks to reduced Glutathione19, Quercetin20, Naringenin21 and Selenium22, it is particularly suitable for getting through periods of intense physical and mental stress and tiredness.
For a more complete action, and to promote a good night’s rest, you can also add Serena Notte, whose formulation is based on Valerian[29], California Poppy[30], Hops[31] and Lime Blossom[32], plants with relaxing and soothing properties. The formulation contains no melatonin, does not cause dependence and does not interfere with the natural sleep/wake rhythm.
Energy supplements for men
Energy supplements for men are extremely sought after. We’d like to suggest an excellent ally to give you the energy and vitality you need to face the day.
Energea+ New Formula is Salugea’s energising supplement made with Spirulina[33], Ashwagandha[34], Royal Jelly[35], Ginseng5, Grape Seed[36] and Manganese[37], specifically intended to give you energy, strength and vitality, both physical and mental.
One of a kind, as it is free from caffeine and other stimulants.
Its innovative formulation lets you give your days just the right boost, as its active ingredients act directly at cellular level, in particular on the mitochondria (Ashwagandha), which are the energy powerhouses of our body.
Omega 3 supplements for men’s wellbeing
Among Omega 3 supplements, pride of place goes to Omega 3 Krill Oil, with EPA and DHA from Krill (a small crustacean that lives in the clean waters of the Antarctic Ocean), which are more easily absorbed than EPA and DHA obtained from fish oils[38].
Omega 3 Krill Oil is 100% natural and has no fishy aftertaste.
Omega 3s are “good” fats, described as essential because our body cannot synthesise them, i.e. produce them on its own, so they must be obtained through the diet.
They are substances involved in a great many of our body’s mechanisms, and they take part in a wide range of physiological functions:
- they support cardiovascular function[39]
- they help regulate blood cholesterol[40]
- they support cognitive function[41]
- they protect eyesight, joints and ligaments from degeneration[42].
Hair-specific supplements for men
Having a thick, shiny head of hair and delaying a receding hairline is the dream of many men, who are increasingly looking for hair-specific supplements for men.
If you want to make your hair strong and resilient, the active ingredients in Kiomasal are just what you need.
Kiomasal is a natural supplement formulated with ingredients that act specifically on the hair, helping it stay strong and resilient and promoting its growth.
With Spirulina, Bamboo, Nettle, B Vitamins (PANMOL®-B-COMPLEX 120), Mango (Careflow®*), Quercetin, Iron (SunActive® Fe-P80LK*), Zinc, Selenium and Copper.
Kiomasal’s active ingredients work by specifically supporting the hair’s dermal papilla through their antioxidant action, carried out in particular by Quercetin[43]-[44].
In synergy with Copper, Quercetin modulates the activity of the enzyme 5-alpha reductase, a decisive factor in the hair loss process, without affecting the normal metabolism of male sex hormones.[45]
For a more complete action on your hair, you can combine Kiomasal with Organic Pomegranate Juice.
Pomegranate is one of the most antioxidant-rich fruits known and, thanks to its active ingredients, you’ll be able to restore tone and shine to your hair[46].
Supplements to support men’s immune defences
It’s a good idea to give our body the right amount of vitamins and antioxidants as support against seasonal ailments.
To support your immune system, we offer a wide range of juices made from organic “superfruits”, completely pure and undiluted, which you can combine with supplements in capsule form.
As for Juices, we have:
Salugea Goji Juice is pure, cold-pressed juice from organic Goji berries. Goji berries are rich in antioxidants and amino acids, for a reinvigorating, energising and tonic action[47]-[48].
Acerola, present in its entirety in Salugea Organic Acerola Juice, is the superfruit with a very high vitamin C content, which helps support the immune defences[49], and it is particularly rich in mineral salts, including iron, calcium, phosphorus, potassium and magnesium, and active ingredients such as Carotenoids and Bioflavonoids.
Organic Elderberry Juice by Salugea contains nothing but organic Elderberry, cold-pressed. Elderberry is excellent for thinning the mucus and catarrh in the airways. It also acts favourably on the immune cells against the viruses and bacteria that threaten our body’s wellbeing. Thanks to the active ingredients in Organic Elderberry Juice, convalescence will also be quicker[50].
As well as our range of Organic Juices, the formulations of DKE + Magnesio and Glutatione Forte also come to the aid of your immune system!
Glutatione Forte contains active ingredients that are also useful for the immune defences. In particular, these are reduced Glutathione and Quercetin[51], included in the formulation at the maximum permitted daily intakes.
Glutathione in its reduced form (as found in Glutatione Forte) also has an immunomodulating action and is therefore also useful for regulating the immune response[52].
An important role in supporting immune function is also played by the natural Vitamin D you’ll find in DKE + Magnesio.
Vitamin D, in fact, influences the action of T lymphocytes[53], a type of white blood cell that is fundamental to the functioning of the immune system. Their main role is to recognise and neutralise pathogens. In addition, the Magnesium citrate contained in the formulation supports the body in cases of tiredness.
