One of the fundamental cornerstones of all systems of natural healing is the cleansing of the gut.
The gut is the centre of your well-being and if it’s not cleansed regularly then the result is a gradual poisoning of your body from the inside out. Cleansing and detoxifying your body is an important step to achieving good health and vitality.
What Our Formula Achieves
Afrigetics Detox formulation relies on the interplay of the powerful healing plants; Aloe ferox and Aloe arborescens. These plants are renowned for their healing, soothing and cleansing properties in the colon. Together they work to eliminate excessive residues of waste stored in the gut, soothe an inflamed intestinal wall and stimulate peristalsis which helps to get rid of stored waste. When you cleanse your gut there is always the risk of reabsorbing toxic residues that have been freed up in the process which is why we’ve added ancient clay (bentonite) and charcoal, two natural compounds that act like sponges in the body to absorb residual toxins so that they can be safely eliminated.
The recommended dosage is 2 capsules a day for one to two weeks. During this cleansing period take some time out from the bad stuff and focus on the good stuff – drink lots of water, drink fresh squeezed juices and eat clean. An effective detox should never be too rapid. Go easy on your body and find your balance again. If you want to go deeper into a cleanse then consult a healthcare professional who you trust to guide you through the process.
These succulent plants were highly prised by the San for blood purification and anti-inflammatory properties. The Bitter Aloe is well known for its laxative effect and its highly nutritious gel. The purgative effect is due to a plant glycoprotein called ‘aloin’. The aloe duo are combined with charcoal and bentonite for the absorption and elimination of toxins. This popular tonic restores vitality and improves immune function.

We lead increasingly stressful lives these days and stress is one of those things that we really need to manage before it does damage. Sustained stress levels erode our fundamental health; we sleep less soundly, our relationships take strain and our brains don’t perform at their peak. Making sure you have a healthy, well rested, balanced brain is an essential aim of the modern human being.
Sceletium is a traditional herbal medicine that has been used for centuries as a natural sedative and mood enhancer. Sceletium may also be helpful for improving concentration and reducing social anxiety.
The key ingredient in this product is Sceletium, which has been proven to reduce anxiety, particularly social anxiety, to enhance cognition (think more clearly, process information more clearly) and to help improve sleeping patterns. Sceletium is the kind of herb you can supplement every day or as and whenever you need it. It’s an excellent tonic for insomnia, it helps your brain to perform better and reduces anxiety so it’s a general performance enhancer for those who want their brains to function at a higher level.
Take one or two capsules before bed to allow your brain to improve serotonin levels whilst you sleep. You can also use it during the day to help calm the nerves and improve the clarity of your thinking. If you’re using it as a treatment for anxiety or ADHD then make sure you combine it with good essential fatty acids (Omega 3,6 and 9), amino acids and B-Vitamins.
San wisdom was utilised in the preparation of the Afrigetics Stress and Anxiety Remedy. This exceptional tonic uses the Bushman’s miracle drug and champion of the African apothecary; Sceletium tortuosum. This small creeping succulent was used as a mood-altering substance from prehistoric times. The dried plant material elevates mood, enhances mental cognition, aids in restful sleep and reduces social anxiety. One of the active ingredients, Mesembrine, has been found to be a potent serotonin uptake inhibitor, offering a glimpse into its application in treating anxiety and depression. Other herbs in this remedy include Baobab, known for its tryptophan-rich composition and its ability to nourish nerve endings.

Bulbine natalensis is a traditional herbal medicine that has been used for centuries as an aphrodisiac and testosterone booster.
If you’re a man over 30 then the chances are that you’re experiencing the effects of low testosterone. A testosterone supplement will help to improve and energy, reduce belly fat, improve muscle strength and tone. Better testosterone levels will also make you feel like you have your drive back again – it puts the fight back into you.
Afrigetics Testosterone Boost contains our unique plant extract AnaTestTM which increases your testosterone levels. Your body has a natural testosterone cycle that can be enhanced through using AnaTestTM because it can effectively reduce the troughs and increase the highs of your natural testosterone cycle so that you constantly operate at higher levels than before.
The suggested use is for men over 90kg to take 2 capsules daily and men under 90kg to take one capsule daily. It’s not recommended to take more than two capsules a day and cycling this product for two weeks on and two weeks off is highly recommended for best results.
The powerful Testosterone Booster features Afrigetics’ own unique herbal extract AnatestTM. This supplement features the herb Bulbine natalensis. Zulu warriors drank a decoction of the plant roots to improve their athleticism, virility and battle performance. Afrigetics make use of an ultrasonic method to extract the active ingredient from the underground stem. Anatest TM stimulates the testes to produce the hormone testosterone, thereby also acting as an aphrodisiac and aiding muscle growth and stamina. In-house trials showed a 35% increase in blood testosterone in 14 days. Animal studies at Fort Hare University showed that similar extracts of Bulbine natalensis actually increased the production rate of testosterone in the testes and also increased the size of the testes which led them to believe that it could be a possible treatment for reducing testicular atrophy (where the testes radically reduce testosterone production and become smaller).

Afrigetics Weight Loss
The single biggest thing that makes most people gain weight is over-eating combined with under-exercising.
We overeat for all sorts of reasons but mostly because we live stressful lives and food gives us quick comfort. Hoodia is a natural appetite suppressant that can help to reduce your hunger pangs so that you
don’t over-eat.
What Our Formula Achieves
Hoodia reduces your appetite by fooling the brain into believing that you’re feeling full. Hoodia has potent appetite suppression properties which enables you to eat less without suffering excessive hunger pangs. This product is not only for weight loss but can also be a very valuable tool for intermittent fasting which is one of the keys to achieving excellent health.
How To Use It
The recommended dosage is 2 capsules a day and you can safely continue using Hoodia for long periods. Hoodia will reduce your appetite and help you reduce your food intake, but help your body along by eating cleanly and consciously reducing portion sizes and eating low-calorie foods. Once you reduce your calorie intake the next best thing is to increase your daily exercise and get that metabolism kick-started!
Backstory
Hoodia is the Bushman’s miracle ‘famine food’. These thorny succulent superfoods were eaten for centuries by herdsmen as an appetite and thirst suppressant. In harsh and arid conditions, this emergency food mimics glucose, tricking the brain into a satisfied state.

Eco-Fert Silica is a natural source of Plant Available Silica and trace elements.
Silica plays a highly significant role in imparting:
- Resistance to stress
- Enhanced growth

Silica (Si) is an important element for plants, essential to good health. Silica is taken up and deposited in plant tissue, enhancing the plant's ability to deal
with both biological and environmental stresses. This in turn benefits the grower by resulting in significantly increased yields.
The proven benefits of Si in plants include:
- Structural strength for reducing lodging and pest attack
- Improved photosynthetic activity
- Reduced drought and heat stress
- Improved plant defense
- Improved utilisation of fetrilisers
