like antioxidant properties that may be more powerful than vitamin E.
Levels of Coenzyme Q 10 decrease with age and should be supplemented.
It plays a crucial role in the effectiveness of the immune system and
the aging process. All cells have it, but it is concentrated in the heart
muscle. Studies have shown a drop in Co-QIO has caused diseases to flourish.
It is essential in the production of energy in every cell in the body.
Increases tissue oxygenation. Has been used as treatment for heart disease
and high blood pressure. Has benefits to help with the following problems;
allergies, asthma, respiratory disease, aging, diabetes, multiple sclerosis,
obesity, periodontal disease and candidiasis. May help with mental functions
like Alzheimer's disease and schizophrenia. Research is being done to
see what benefits it may have for AIDS and cancer. Can possibly help reduce
side effects of cancer chemotherapy.
DIMENHYDRINATE

drowsiness, dry mouth, blurred vision, dizziness and fatigue.
DHEA
(Dehydro-Epiandrosterone)
Actions and Benefits - DHEA or Dehydro-Epiandrosterone
is a steroid hormone produced in high amounts by the adrenal gland. It
is considered the mother of hormones by researchers because it is the
precursor of the manufacturing of many other hormones. It is the most
abundant steroid in the blood stream. The body produces less DHEA as we
age and needs to be supplemented. Can help retard and possibly reverse
some of the effects of aging. Helps enhance the immune system. Helps reduce
the risks of heart disease. May help stop the effects of carcinogens and
reduce the risks of cancer. Aids to promote lean muscle tissue. May increase
bone density, reversing effects of osteoporosis. May help normalize blood
sugar levels Helpful for stress and depression. Also helps with multiple
sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis.

to aid as a free radical scavenger. Helps protect the liver and brain
from damage caused from alcohol, drugs, and toxic compounds in cigarette
smoke. Supplementation is recommended in treatment of rheumatoid arthritis,
hardening of the arteries, and mutogenic disorders such as cancer. Helps
promote healing after surgery and severe bums. Binds with soluble iron,
aiding in iron absorption. Can help promote healing from respiratory disorders
because of its ability to breakdown mucus. Has an important role in the
activity of white blood cells, which fight disease.
CAUTIONS: People who have diabetes should use caution, is capable
of inactivating insulin. People with cystinuria, a rare genetic condition
that leads to the formation of cystine kidney stones, should not take
cysteine.
L-GLYCINE
Actions and Benefits - Retards muscle degeneration.
Essential for central nervous system function and healthy prostate. Is
needed by the immune system to produce the nonessential amino acids. Has
inhibitory actions that help prevent epilepsy. Has been used to treat
bipolar depression. Proper balance of this amino acid produces more energy.
Too much can displace glucose and cause fatigue.
L-ISOLEUCINE
Actions and Benefits - Needed for formation of
hemoglobin. It is metabolized in muscle tissue. Should be taken with the
correct balance of leucine and valine, Helps regulate blood sugar and
energy levels. Deficiency can lead to symptoms similar to those of hypoglycemia-.
L-LEUCINE

and helps maintain nitrogen balance in adults. Aids in fighting viruses
like cold sores and Herpes. Important for those recovering from surgery
and sports injuries. Lowers high serum triglycerides. Deficiencies result
in loss of energy, inability to concentrate, irritability, anemia, retarded
growth and reproduction disorders, hair loss, blood shot eyes.
L-METHIONINE
Actions and Benefits - Is not produced by the body and must be
obtained from food or supplements. Assists in breakdown of fats, preventing
build-up of fat in the liver and arteries. Because the body uses L-Methionine
to derive a brain food called choline, it would be wise to supplement
the diet with choline or lecithin (which is high in choline) so that the
supply of L-Methionine is not depleted. Is important in the treatment
of rheumatic fever and toxemia during pregnancy. Aids in the digestive
system. Interacts with other substances to detoxify. Aids with muscle
weakness. Helps to prevent brittle hair. Is beneficial for allergic chemical
sensitivities and osteoporosis. Production of cysteine and taurine by
the body may rely on the presence of methionine.

tissue repair, and nitrogen balance, use valine with leucine and isoleucine.
Has an effect of being a stimulant. Deficiency results in a negative hydrogen
balance of the body.
LECITHIN
Actions and Benefits - Is a type of lipid that
is needed by every cell in the human body. Cell membranes, which regulate
the passage of nutrients into and out of the cells, are largely composed
of lecithin. The protective sheaths surrounding the brain are composed
of lecithin. Although it is a lipid it is also partly water soluble and
acts as an emulsifying agent. It consists mostly of the B vitamin choline
and also contains linoleic acid and inositol. Helps to prevent arteriosclerosis,
protects against cardiovascular disease, improves brain function. Helps
promote energy. Is needed to help repair liver damage caused by alcoholism.
It enables fats, such as cholesterol and other lipids, to be dispersed
in water and removed from the body; this enables the vitals organs and
arteries to be protected from fatty buildup PMS, Lady Mate,

MELATONIN
Actions and Benefits - Melatonin is a naturally
occurring hormone whose primary function is to promote sleep. Middle age
adults (45) secrete only half as much as children and at age 80 production
slows down to a trickle. It helps correct the disordered circadian rhythms
of jet lag and shift work. Helps with mood swings. Melatonin also has
very good antioxidant properties Melatonin OMEGA 3 & OMEGA 6 Actions and
Benefits Not all fats are bad. Some are good. The difference is in polyunsaturated
fatty acids. Omega 3 and 6 are considered as essential fatty acids (EFA's).
The body can not produce these, they have to be supplemented. Components
of these two are EPA (eicosapentanoic) and DHA (docosahexanoic) acids,
these two have the ability to reduce cholesterol and tryglycerides, the
harmful fats. Heat destroys essential fatty acids and can actually change
and create harmful free radicals. Every living cell needs EFA's. Fatty
acids are an essential player for good cardiovascular health. Helps reduce
blood pressure. Are required by the body as a nutrient, however most of
the population is deficient in them. Dr. Rudin says "In more ways than
one, they're our nutritional missing link.' Improves skin and hair, aids
in prevention of arthritis, reduces risk of blood clot formation Beneficial
for candidiasis, eczema, and psoriasis. High concentrations are found
in the brain, EFA's aid in transmission of nerve impulses. A deficiency
can lead to impaired ability to learn and recall information.
PHOSPHATIDYLSERINE
Actions and Benefits - Is the major phospholipid
in the brain. Helps maintain integrity and fluidity of cell membranes.
Low levels of phosphatidylserine in the brain have been associated with
impaired mental function and depression especially in the elderly. Studies
show that it may help improve memory and age-related brain changes. May
help with senility, depression, and Alzheimer's disease.
SPIRULINA
Actions and Benefits - Recognized as the most promising
of all microalgae. Is being considered as an immediate food resource.
It produces twenty times the amount of protein as that of soybeans on
an equal land area. Contains nutrients, gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), and
high amounts of B12, high iron content, 60-70 percent protein content,
essential amino acids, RNA and DNA nucleic acids, chlorophyll, and blue
pigment (phycocyanin) found only in blue green algae, which may help with
fighting cancer. Aids in protecting the immune system, lowering cholesterol,
and in mineral absorption. Helps to cleanse and heal. May help reduce
appetite. Good for hypoglycemia because of high protein content . Helps
stabilize blood sugar levels.
TAURINE
Benefits: A very important amino acid that may
help prevent cardiomyopathy and blindness
