It plays an energetic and anti-fatigue role as it preserves the energetic potential that is reactivated during a physical and intellectual effort. It also prevents muscle aches after strenuous physical efforts. Young people, Athletes and Intellectuals The demand of Sulphur is more important with its free antiradical actions, as the first signs of aging are numbness of the joints (often at night or when arising in the morning). The Elderly 20 Harlem oil provides a highly bioavailable sulfur ! Haarlem oil has demonstrated its effectiveness in preventing respiratory illness, passive and active smoking, unhealthy diets and rheumatoid arthritis. It is an energy supplement that promotes recovery after exercise, avoid aches and reduces mental fatigue. The Genuine Haarlem Oil is composed of three simple elements inside a 200mg capsule: •Sulphur 16% •Pine turpentine 80% •Linseed oil 4% Sulfur-based remedies: Haarlem oil 23 Thioaldehyde formation from α,β-unsaturated thiols Schneider et al., Med.
