Alpha Lipoic Acid
is unique in
that it is both a water-soluble and oil-soluble antioxidant. It has the unique effect of
recycling other antioxidants such as vitamin C and vitamin E. Lipoic acid can be
used to prevent and treat both type I and type II diabetes by normalizing blood sugar
levels and reducing insulin resistance. Lipoic Acid reduces the incidence of
cataracts in diabetics and prevents diabetic neuropathy.

Beta-1,3/1,6-Glucan is a yeast
extract that strengthens the immune system better than any agent known. It works by
activating immune cells called macrophages. Macrophages are like biological Pac Men that
gobble up viruses, bacteria, parasites, tumor cells, and infectious agents. In 1996 alone,
144 scientific studies were published on the medical uses of beta-1,3-glucan.
Beta-1,3-glucan also provides protection against harmful
radiation. In radiation tests performed by the US Armed Forces, 90% of the mice survived
lethal doses of radiation when they were given an oral dose of beta-1,3-glucan. People are
exposed daily to low level radiation exposure from many common sources such as computer
screens, airline travel, and nuclear fallout. UV radiation from the sun is another form of
radiation which beta-1,3-glucan provides protection against.
Good candidates for the use of beta-1,3-glucan are people
with compromised immune systems. This would include people with chronic fatigue, cancer,
AIDS, Candida, parasites, or infections. Some people use beta-1,3-glucan as a general
immune enhancer to maintain good health.
Among its many uses, beta-1,3-glucan was granted US patent
#4,891,220 for cholesterol reduction. However, rather than seeking FDA drug approval which
could take 8-10 years, the patent holding company chose to sell beta-1,3-glucan as a
food supplement.

Cetyl myristoleate (CMO) is the common name for the
modified fatty acid cis-9-cetyl myristoleate that has shown excellent results in clinical
arthritis trials. There is currently a lot of excitement because cetyl myristoleate has
shown to be effective against auto-immune diseases such as lupus, MS, etc. Some believe
this is the reason that CMO is so effective in cases of arthritis, particularly rheumatoid
arthritis. Cetyl myristoleate also mediates joint inflammation by modifying
prostaglandin/prostacyclin response. Additionally CMO lubricates joints. Treatment with
cetyl myristoleate is normally indicated for only 30 days. CMO does not work for everyone
but some people get almost miraculous results. CMO works for pets also. Steve Barwick's 15 year old dog Champ was so crippled with arthritis that he could hardly
walk. The veterinarian offered no help so as a last resort Barwick began giving Champ CMO
capsules wrapped in bacon. Within 3 weeks Champ was running and playing with his ball.

5-Hydroxy Tryptophan (5-HTP) is a metabolite of the
amino acid L-Tryptophan. It is a natural product extracted from Griffonia seeds. 5-HTP
produces the neurotransmitter serotonin in the brain making it helpful in cases of
depression, anxiety, sleep problems, and obsessive compulsive behavior including
compulsive gambling..
Prozac and other selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor
(SSRI) drugs raise serotonin levels by recycling it. However, 5-HTP raises brain serotonin
levels more effectively than Prozac without any accompanying side effects.
For those not
affected by depression, 5-HTP acts as a mild mood elevator.
Clinical trials have shown that 5-HTP
causes people to voluntarily decrease their caloric intake of carbohydrates and fats but
not decrease protein intake.
Substances that raise serotonin:
1. Prozac, Paxil, Zoloft (SSRI's)
to
order
2. Dexfenfluramine (Redux)
3. Alcohol
4. Tobacco
5. Caffeine
Taking natural 5-HTP in capsule extracted from Griffonia
seeds is a much safer and healthier alternative to any on the above list.

Galantamine
is an extract of the snowdrop plant (Galanthus
nivalis) that is approved as an Alzheimer's drug in Europe. It
works by two mechanisms:
1) Galantamine inhibits acetylcholinesterase, the enzyme that
breaks down acetylcholine (the brain neurotransmitter responsible for
learning and memory).
2). Galantamine stimulates brain nicotinic receptors and reduces
the build-up of amyloid plaque in the brain. An interesting side
effect is that people using galantamine are reporting a loss of body
weight, most likely caused by the nicotinic receptor stimulation.

Lycopene,
a carotenoid found in tomatoes and red peppers, is the most effective quencher of singlet
oxygen free radicals yet discovered. Research has found that people with the lowest
levels of serum lycopene have a 500% greater risk of developing pancreatic cancer than
those who consume higher amounts of lycopene. The prostate has high concentrations of
lycopene.

NADH (Nicotinamide Adenine
Dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in highest concentrations in the
brain. NADH is currently being used successfully to treat Parkinson's disease,
Alzheimer's, depression, and chronic fatigue syndrome. Healthy people report a notable increased brain energizing
and mood enhancing effect from NADH. A study of NADH in 1995 with competitive cyclists showed
improved reaction time of up to 20% in some of the cyclists.

Pro hGH is a newly developed oral
secretagogue that signals the pituitary gland to release more growth hormone. Growth
hormone is known for burning body fat. This fact has not escaped bodybuilders who have

S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe)
is found in every cell in the body and has a wide range of
functions. SAMe is a methyl donor for the synthesis of RNA, DNA, and
neurotransmitters. SAMe
was introduced to the US in 1997 although it has has been used in Europe for more than 20
years to treat a wide variety of conditions including:
1) Depression - SAMe is more effective than conventional antidepressants.
2) Liver conditions - SAMe protects the liver.
3) Fibromyalgia - SAMe reduces the pain, fatigue, and stiffness of
fibromyalgia.
4) Heart disease - SAMe reduces homocysteine, the major cause of cardiovascular disease.
5) Muscular Dystrophy - SAMe aids remyelination.
6) Drug & Alcohol withdrawal
7) Peripheral neuropathy
Aside from its therapeutic benefits, some people take SAMe for its
anti-aging properties.

Serrapeptase is an enzyme
derived from silk worms. It is marketed in Asia under the trade name Danzen and in Europe
as Anaflazyme. It has many clinical uses including:
1) as an anti-inflammatory agent (particularly for post
traumatic swelling)
2) for Fibrocystic breast disease
3) for asthma, sinusitis, and bronchitis (Serrapeptase expels mucous)
Serrapeptase digests dead tissue, blood clots, cysts, and
arterial plaque. The late German physician Dr Hans Nieper used serrapeptase to treat
arterial blockage in his coronary patients. A doctor who requested anonymity claims serrapeptase protects against
stroke and is more effective and quicker than EDTA chelation treatments in removing
arterial plaque. He also reports that serrapeptase dissolves blood clots and causes
varicose veins to shrink or diminish. Dr X told of a man scheduled for bypass surgery who
cancelled his surgery and recovered after treatment with serrapeptase.
