and tone vital alimentary canal and intestinal tract. It is a
valuable stomach tonic, increasing saliva and the flow of gastric
juices, improving the appetite, promoting the action of the liver
and flow of bile without catharsis, facilitating systemal vascularity
and absorption. As a cathartic agent, it increases the circulation
of the glands appended to the intestinal canal and increases peristalsis
by stimulating the muscular layer of the bowel. It is highly esteemed(because
of the milk-like quality of its action) as a laxative tonic for
children and infants. It acts chiefly on the duodenum, generally
does not clog or produce and after constipation as so many of
the active cathartics do. The tonic and astringent action following
catharsis makes rhubarb a valuable healing remedy for diarrhea
which is due to irritating matter in the bowel. It removes the
irritating substance, the astringent or contracting properties,
checks diarrhea and tones the tissue and corrects the accompanying
atonic indigestion. Its gentle action makes it desirable for persons
bothered by hemorrhoids. The urine of a person taking rhubarb
will often become red due to the alkaline urine acting upon the
yellow matter of the root.

SPIRULINA
In an article in the book ALIVE, it is stated "Spirulina
is the earth's most nutritious food, a rich source of vitamin
B-12 and Protein." Sixty-five percent of its weight is easily
digested biologically. It is a complete protein. (Beef is only
22% protein). Pant enzymes found in all living cells are the driving
force behind every biochemical action that takes place in nature.
Neither vitamins, minerals nor protein can do any work in their
absence. Without enzymes life itself would be impossible. Spirulina
contains up to 70% vegetable protein, 8% amino acids, Vitamin
A, C, F and B-12. The B-12 contents are 250 times more than found
in beef liver. Spirulina also contains minerals salts, olego-elements,
beta-carotene, xanthophyll, iron, calcium, phosphorus, etc. It
is extremely elective when combined with Korean Ginseng.
The American Army have included Spirulina in their survival kits
used under extreme and hazardous conditions.
WARNING: Extended and excessive use may provoke excessive sexuality
in both men and women.
Since 1990 Spirulina has been donated to radiation clinics for
the children of Chernobyl. Spirulina has been used as medicine
for the promotion of immunity of Chernobyl. Studies show that
among 270 children living in highly radioactive areas, the amount
of IgE was greatly above the normal parameters. Elevation of IgE
in the blood shows the characteristics of typical allergies. Deriving
from this study elevated IgE in the blood is considered a marker
for high allergy sensitivity in the body.
Adding Spirulina normalizes levels of IgE and protects kidneys
from Mercury poisoning. The end result is normalization of allergies
in the body. Thirty-five preschool children(20 boys and 15 girls)
who were constantly living in highly radioactive areas were prescribed
Spirulina for 45 days. Ages 3-5 were given tablets twice a day
and ages 5-7 were given 7 tablets a day. All their IgE levels
were tested before and after using Spirulina. The levels wavered
from 17 to 1663 Mkg/l/l. The same testing was performed on 15
children not using Spirulina. The IgE levels in the blood did
not change. (Spirulina for this research was grown at Earthrise
Farms in California).

The Arthritic Society has written numerous articles on the benefits
of using Yucca. Dr. Bingham, an Orthopedic Surgeon of Yorba Linda,
California says " It isn't clear how the Yucca extract benefits
the arthritis sufferer. Some patients reported they noticed diminution
of swelling and stiffness in the joints and those patients suffering
from gastrointestinal disturbances associated with arthritis stated
Yucca was beneficial".
Dr. Bernard A. Bellows, M.D. said, "It is the opinion of
the doctors who treated these patients with arthritis that the
Yucca does reduce the production of inflammatory toxins in the
human alimentary canal and that this relieves the resulting physical
stress problems. It is an effective agent in aiding wasted breakdown
in the body and thus relieving associated problems". He continues
by saying the desert Yucca saponin has proving to be a safe and
effective source extract in the overall;l management of the epidemic
cases of arthritis. In the world of medicine progress it appears
that this Indian healing agent, the desert Yucca saponin, may
now have come of age.

GRAPE SEED & PINE
BARK PROANTHACYANIDINS
Proanthacyanidins - the marvelous nutrients are especially hard
hit by modern food technology.
Proanthacyanidins are the most powerful natural free radical scavengers
and antioxidants. Free radicals may hurt you more than they should
because they increase oxidative damage to vital tissues.
In vitro (outside body) laboratory studies have shown the Proanthacyanidins
to be 50 times more effective than Vitamin E as an antioxidant.
It readily crosses the blood-brain barrier to protect vital brain
and nerve tissue from oxidation. Proanthacyanidins inhibit chemicals
that cause inflammation. They reduce histamine production thereby
eliminating inflammation. They help the lining of arteries resist
attack by those mutagens which can cause cardiovascular disease.
They restore capillary integrity and improve circulation making
it a little easier for each cell to get the food it needs. Improved
circulation is especially valuable to smokers, diabetics, stroke
victims, arthritic, women taking oral contraceptives and persons
with swollen, edematous legs. Proanthacyanidins have the unique
ability to bond collagen fibers and to help rebuild their cross
links to reverse some of the damage done over the years by injury
and free radical attack. Proanthacyanidins even inhibit the natural
enzymes your body makes that normally break down collagen. All
cells in the human body are glued together with collagen. By restoring
collagen, Proanthacyanidins help return flexibility to skin, joints,
arteries, capillaries and other tissue. We also have another product
that works well. Try this: Grapeseed

BIOFLAVINOIDS
Bioflavinoids are brightly colored substances commonly found alongside
Vitamin C in nature and were discovered by Albert Szent Gyorgi
(a biochemist who won the 1936 Nobel Prize for isolating Vitamin
C from Hungarian Paprika). He himself called Bioflavinoids Vitamin
"P" and suggested they were crucial for the integrity
of the small blood vessels. Some of the best known Bioflavinoids
are Citron, Hesperidin and Rutin. They are found in the white
pulp of citrus fruits, plums, blackberries (the most popular and
powerful fruit antioxident known), black currants, apricots, buckwheat,
cherries and rose hips. A very powerful and potent blend of Bioflavinoids
has been used clinically in Europe for many years and is extracted
from grape seed and the bark of a specific type Pine Tree, The
Maritime Pine.
Bioflavinoids remove toxic copper from the destructive action
of some copper-containing enzymes. The Bioflavinoids extracted
from the Grape Seed and Pine Bark are powerful antioxidants and
free radical scavengers. They may have a role to play in promoting
Vitamin C's anti-cancer effects.
