"Were these symptoms some sort of unexpected consequence of the bovine ovarian extract? To find out, Selye began to test the effects of other organ extracts on the physiological functioning of the rats. He found that extracts of kidneys and spleens produced the same effects as extracts of ovaries. Then he had a new thought: perhaps what the rats were exhibiting was not a specific response to a specific agent but a nonspecific response to the trauma of having a noxious (and probably impure) agent injected into their bodies." - Anne Harrington, The Cure Within: A History of Mind-Body Medicine (Get the book.)

"Supplementation with cranberry extract, grape skin extract, and grape seed extract seems to me prudent and inexpensive insurance. Want more antioxidant protection? Pycnogenols-combinations of polyphenols from tree bark and alpha lipoic acid-are superb antioxidants, as are mushroom extracts, especially reishi, cordyceps, or maitake. All enhance immune-system function, elevate the level of natural killer cells (another type of white blood cell that protect us), and improve athletic performance." - Dr. Steven R.

"And not only are they stronger in the sense that the process produces more extract from a given amount of herbs, the tincture is also stronger in the sense that more biological components are now being extracted (components that were previously left behind by other extraction methods). This process is not only effective for tinctures, but also allows for concentrates of significantly increased potency and effectiveness. More Art Than Science There's another issue that we need to deal with when talking about herbal medicine—another way in which herbs differ from drugs." - Jon Barron, Lessons from The Miracle Doctors: A Step-by-Step Guide to Optimum Health and Relief from Catastrophic Illness (Get the book.)

"Another great option is to splash some cranberry extract into your water. Cranberry juice is famous for its antioxidant properties and support of a healthy urinary tract; its organic acids and fatty acids help keep bacteria from sticking to urinary tract cells. Cranberry can also decrease the incidence of constipation and urinary incontinence as well, especially in older people.

"Take an adrenal gland extract as this helps to support your adrenal. It is not suited to those with Addison's disease or high blood pressure. The B vitamin, pantothenic acid or B5 is very good for adrenal gland stress. Typical dosage is 50 to 250 mgs per day. It works well to take when taking a regular B complex 50 mgs per day as well. If you take the B vitamins, take them in the morning. Licorice extract is said to be nourishing for the adrenal glands, however it is not suitable for those with high blood pressure. DEPRESSION Many people rum to food in times of stress." - Heather Caruso, Your Drug-Free Guide to Digestive Health (Get the book.)

"The alcoholic extract of MAK-5 and both the alcoholic and aqueous extracts of MAK-4 were significantly effective. Both extracts of MAK-4 reduced lipid peroxidation in the microsomes to essentially zero, even in the face of the added free radical load created by adriamycin.23 An additional test was conducted on animals that were given adriamycin. One group was fed a standard diet. The other groups received either MAK-4 or MAK-5. At the end of four weeks, the mortality (death rate) among the control group was 60%." - Hari Sharma, Freedom from Disease: How to Control Free Radicals, a Major Cause of Aging and Disease (Get the book.)

"They have the unique ability to capture sunlight, using this energy to extract carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. The extracted carbon dioxide is then combined with hydrogen and oxygen from water to form sugars that help make up the plants' leaves, stalks, roots, seeds, and flowers, all of which contain starch, fat, and proteins. The byproduct of this process called photosynthesis is oxygen, which is necessary for the maintenance of human life." - Pam Montgomery, Plant Spirit Healing: A Guide to Working with Plant Consciousness (Get the book.)

"Green tea extract?20 mg (83%) Green tea antioxidants are of the same family as grape seed and pine bark extracts. They are polyphenols, chief of which are the flavonoids called proan-thocyanidins. In green tea, the main proanthocyanidins are the catechins, and the most powerful of the catechins is Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG), found in the highest concentration in green tea. Green tea works to prevent tumors from developing the blood vessels they need to survive. It has been shown to inhibit metastasis. And it is the first known natural telomerase inhibitor." - Jon Barron, Lessons from The Miracle Doctors: A Step-by-Step Guide to Optimum Health and Relief from Catastrophic Illness (Get the book.)

"The most promising system, permitting in many cases an unambiguous structural characterization of components in extract from unknown source, consists of UV DAD detector, NMR, and mass spectrometer in line. The analysis of plant extracts using this system was demonstrated for the first time almost 10 years ago (Wolfender et al, 1998). The structural elucidation of compounds using NMR experiments and their separation by HPLC are well-established analytical methods. This is why the connection of LC and NMR spectroscopy for analysis of mixtures of unknown compounds was originally devised." - Erich Grotewold, The Science of Flavonoids (Get the book.) "In recent years, many studies demonstrated that topical application or oral feeding of a polyphenolic fraction from tea extract or of individual catechin derivatives had anticarcinogenesis effects in animal skins and other organs (Yang and Wang, 1993). Tea extracts were found to be effective in inhibiting 4-(methylnitrosamino)-l-(3-pyridyl)-l-butanone (NNK)-induced lung tumorigenesis in A/J mice with any of three dosing schedules (Yang et al, 2002)." - Erich Grotewold, The Science of Flavonoids (Get the book.)

"Because the de Broglie matter wave is incredibly small in comparison with the mass of a human body, we cannot detect, and so cannot extract, any quantum information from our bodies. In addition, it is claimed that decoherence cannot be detected because all macroscopic objects are in interaction with complex environments, and there is no way to separate coherent quantum information from the "noise" produced by those interactions." - Peter h. Fraser and Harry Massey, Decoding the Human Body-Field: The New Science of Information as Medicine (Get the book.) "To use an analogy to make this distinction clear, think of how a mechanic can extract information about how your car's engine is performing by analyzing only the emissions from the tailpipe. He'll know a lot about the engine, but not everything. In the same way, information is encoded in the visible aura, but it is scant compared with what is contained in the vast network of the body-field. Peter quips that the visible aura is the "off-gassing" of the body-field." - Peter h. Fraser and Harry Massey, Decoding the Human Body-Field: The New Science of Information as Medicine (Get the book.)

"A review of 200 studies demonstrated a 50 percent lower cancer risk in oxidation of free radicals (unstable molecules that damage cells and are believed to contribute to many diseases) than apple extract without the skin. They also found that catechins, when combined with two other phytochemicals in apples, prevented the oxidation of free radicals five times greater than expected. The phenolic phytochemicals in apple peel account for the majority of the antioxidant and antiproliferating activity noted in apples. Eat at least an apple a day to help keep breast cancer away?" - Elaine Magee, Food Synergy: Unleash Hundreds of Powerful Healing Food Combinations to Fight Disease and Live Well (Get the book.)

"New research shows that extract of buckwheat lowered meal-related blood sugar levels by 12 to 19 percent when given to rats. Chapter 2 When Two or More Nutrients Are Better Than One: Vitamins and Minerals For decades, most headlines from the field of nutrition research simply focused on specific parts of our diet. Nutrients like vitamin C and calcium were discovered, and signs of nutrient deficiencies like scurvy or rickets were uncovered. We accumulated knowledge in pieces rather than taking a look at how our diet relates to food habits or eating patterns." - Elaine Magee, Food Synergy: Unleash Hundreds of Powerful Healing Food Combinations to Fight Disease and Live Well (Get the book.)
