"Ideally, such a portfolio will consist of three parts: a realistic budget that monitors and helps control spending, a financial plan geared toward a focused restructuring of the personal balance sheet, and an investment strategy that serves as a road map for protecting and enhancing overall wealth.
There will be overlaps. Spending categories, for example, must feature an allocation for savings, whereas strategies to generate extra funds, such as selling off unused personal assets or developing a home-based business, should be included too." - Michael J. Panzner, Financial Armageddon: protecting Your Future from Four Impending Catastrophes (Get the book.)
"With that in mind, knowing as much as possible about any financial relationships will be an essential part of protecting investments and assets from the coming perfect storm. In addition to the approaches and methods cited earlier, other resources are available online that can help Americans keep an eye on individuals or firms that, in one way or another, deal with money-related matters."

"Such measures are not unique to Japan, however, and barriers protecting domestic markets will surely multiply in strength and number in the years ahead.
The shift will reflect a dramatic turnaround in the multidecade march toward globalization, as faltering growth and widespread financial and social upheaval induce governments everywhere to fence domestic economies away from unfolding turmoil."

| "This nutrient, which is popular among the general public, is another supplement with a very focused function: protecting liver cells. It protects them from many liver-poisoning, hepatotoxic chemicals, and there is a great deal of evidence that it is valuable in the treatment of cirrhosis and hepatitis. It also protects the liver from the toxic effects of certain medications, and even from some poisonous mushrooms.
Silymarin can be helpful for protecting the body from toxins that are not captured and eliminated by activated charcoal." - Kenneth Bock, Healing the New Childhood Epidemics: Autism, ADHD, Asthma, and Allergies: The Groundbreaking Program for the 4-A Disorders (Get the book.)
| "And finally, green tea has great benefits for the brain as well, serving as an effective MAO inhibitot, protecting against btain-cell death from glucose oxidase, overproduction of nitric oxide, and lowering the amount of free iron reaching the brain (a bad thing). The net result is that there are strong indications that green tea extract may play a major role in protecting against both Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease.
Note: if you drink green tea, adding cream or milk to the tea seems to destroy all antioxidant benefits.

| "You will also be protecting your bones from bone loss, and you will be protecting your breasts and uterus from any raging estrogen your body is still making. You have to stay flexible with your progesterone program. There are times when you will want to fine-tune. For example:
A Short Cycle If you are using progesterone and your menstrual cycle is too short—that is, you are bleeding every twenty to twenty-five days—the first thing to consider is whether you are taking enough progesterone." - Phuli Cohan, The Natural Hormone Makeover: 10 Steps to Rejuvenate Your Health and Rediscover Your Inner Glow (Get the book.)
| "Few of the FDA's critics squarely face the stark reality that the FDA culture has become more concerned about protecting the drug companies than protecting the public. An exception is Marcia Angell, former editor of the New England Journal of Medicine and now senior lecturer at Harvard Medical School. In a column entitled, "Taking back the FDA" in The Boston Globe on February 26, 2007, she observed:
The FDA also refuses to release unfavorable research results in its possession without the sponsoring company's permission. . . ." - Peter Breggin, Medication Madness: A Psychiatrist Exposes the Dangers of Mood-Altering Medications (Get the book.)

| "Carnosine is valuable because it helps inhibit accelerated aging by interfering with glycation, thus protecting against glycation-induced damage and acting as an antioxidant to fight oxidative stress.
Evidence of carnosine's antiglycation abilities has been seen in several studies. In one recent example involving human cell cultures, carnosine protected against damage to kidney cells from high glucose levels. In another, investigators noted that carnosine and its two precursors—beta-alanine and histidine?" - Steven V. Joyal, What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Diabetes: An Innovative Program to Prevent, Treat, and Beat This Controllable Disease (Get the book.)
| "These studies have raised interesting questions regarding the physiological roles of flavonoids, speculated to include protecting DNA from UV and oxidative damage (Feucht et al., 2004) or controlling the transcription of genes required for growth and development such as auxin transport proteins (Grandmaison and Ibrahim, 1996; Kuras et al., 1999; Buer and Muday, 2004). However, it also begs the question of how intracellular distribution of the enzymes is controlled." - Erich Grotewold, The Science of Flavonoids (Get the book.)
| "Biochemical Biophysical Research Communications 212: 172-77, 1995]
CoQIO may also be valuable in protecting the heart from side effects caused by anti-cancer drugs. A recent study suggests CoQIO is safe and effective in protecting heart tissue from damage caused by chemotherapy. [Integrative Cancer Therapy 4: 110-30, 2005] However, there are an insufficient number of studies to confirm that supplemental CoQIO may be of benefit. [Cochrane Database System Review CD003917, 2005] Cancer patients can't count on their doctors recommending CoQIO supplements in conjunction with chemotherapy." - Bill Sardi, You Don't Have to be Afraid of Cancer Anymore (Get the book.)
| "It is possible that the supplement is helpful in the primary prevention of heart disease, particularly in protecting against sudden heart failure.
A SKEPTICAL ADDENDUM
Alas, were that the only disappointing finding. Other widely touted antioxidants have not been shown to prevent disease. At the turn of the millennium, one of the most touted supplement was omega-3 fatty acids, found in high concentrations in fish oil. It was widely believed to be a powerful antioxidant that protected against cancer." - Gerald E. Markle and Frances B. McCrea, What If Medicine Disappeared? (Get the book.)
| "Avoid chemical derivatives: Avoid using blocking or protecting groups or any temporary modifications if possible. Derivatives use additional reagents and generate waste.
7. Maximize atom economy: Design syntheses so that the final product contains the maximum proportion of the starting materials. There should be few, if any, wasted atoms.
8. Use safer solvents and reaction conditions: Avoid using solvents, separation agents, or other auxiliary chemicals. If these chemicals are necessary, use innocuous chemicals.

"As you will discover in greater detail in the following pages, the government that should be protecting us either has misplaced priorities, or has been asleep on the job.
Chapter Two:
The Chemical Threats to Your Health
Before we talk about why most American consumers remain in the dark about the health threat posed by cosmetics and personal care products, we need to talk a little bit about what that threat is, and how we know it's a threat."
- Samuel S. Epstein, Randall Fitzgerald, Toxic Beauty: How Cosmetics and Personal Care Products Endanger Your Health . . . And What You Can Do about It (Get the book.)
| "Owing to the acid lability of methoxymethyl derivative, the MOM functionality was used as a protecting group. This method was extended to the synthesis of the full range of flavan-3-ols, comprising different oxygenated phenolic substitutions as found in nature (Nel et al., 1999c).
3.6. Isoflavonoids
Synthetic routes to optically pure pterocarpans, exhibiting the aromatic oxygenation patterns of naturally occurring isoflavonoids, are limited by the lack of readily accessible starting materials." - Erich Grotewold, The Science of Flavonoids (Get the book.)
| "Selenium
Selenium is helpful for inflammatory conditions, maintaining proper immune function, protecting the liver, preventing heart disease and cancer. Typical dosage is 200 to 400 micrograms (megs). Do not take selenium in doses higher then 40 megs if you are pregnant.
B Vitamins
B complex is useful for people who suffer from autoimmune disease. It aids in toning the muscles of the gastrointestinal tract, nerves and acts to combat the effects of emotional stress. Certain medications such as steroids deplete vitamin B. One can safely take 100 mgs of B Complex daily with meals." - Heather Caruso, Your Drug-Free Guide to Digestive Health (Get the book.)
| "I'm talking about protecting your children's health over the long term.
Yes, the rules of the game have changed over the last few decades. But if there's one thing that parenthood teaches, it's adaptability. And there's no time like the present to put that skill to good use. We must adapt our lifestyles and diets to our children, before it's too late.
Chapter 2
The Role of the Environment in Our Children's Health
When my son Wyatt was a baby, I began seeking more information about the off-the-charts increases in childhood health problems that we've see over the past two decades." - Deirdre Imus, Growing Up Green: Baby and Child Care: Volume 2 in the Bestselling Green This! Series (Green This!) (Get the book.)
| "Depending on the lability and/or stability of protecting groups under certain reaction conditions, this protocol included methoxymethyl protection of the benzaldehydes 181 and 182 (labile in the presence of Lewis acids such as SnCl4) and phenylacetates 178-180 as ?-butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS) ethers (stable under acidic conditions). Since 2-hydroxy-, 2-hydroxy-4-methoxy- and 2-hydroxy-3,4-dimethoxyphenylacetic acids are not commercially available, the required phenylacetates 175-177 were prepared via a thallium(III)nitrate (TTN) oxidative rearrangement (McKillop et al." - Erich Grotewold, The Science of Flavonoids (Get the book.)
| "Vitamin E helps circulation by:

(b) Increasing capillary flexibility.
(c) Decreasing blood coagulation.
(d) All of the above.
5. Vitamin E supplements, to be effective, should be:
(a) Taken between meals.
(b) Taken with meals.
(c) Taken one half-hour before meals.
(d) Taken before bedtime.
6. Good food sources of vitamin E are:
(a) Cold-pressed oils.
(b) Fruit.
(c) Enriched flour products.

"The fat-soluble tocopherols are perfectly suited to protecting cell membranes from free radicals. The fat-soluble tail of the tocopherol can reach in and neutralize the free radicals, as seen in Figure 5-3. Vitamin E also protects polyunsaturated fatty acids and vitamin A from free radical damage.
Vitamin E neutralizes free radicals by donating a hydrogen atom from the hydroxyl group (HO) on the hexagonal head of vitamin E, as seen in Figure 5-4."
- Dr. Steve Blake, Vitamins and Minerals Demystified (Get the book.)
"Vitamin E serves as a powerful antioxidant, protecting fatty areas in the body. Vitamin E is non-toxic, although huge doses can encourage a tendency toward bleeding.
Vitamin K is needed for normal blood clotting. Vitamin K is found in abundance in green leafy vegetables. Vitamin K is non-toxic in food and supplements. Unlike the other fat-soluble vitamins, vitamin K is not stored in the body.
CHAPTER 3
Vitamin A
The Night Sight Vitamin
As long ago as 300 B.C., the Hippocratic School of Medicine recommended liver (rich in vitamin A) for children with night blindness or infections."
- Dr. Steve Blake, Vitamins and Minerals Demystified (Get the book.)
"Vitamin C assists the absorption of iron by protecting the iron from oxidation. If supplemental vitamin C is needed, the ascorbated form is easiest on the digestive system.
Vitamin E is a family of related antioxidants. Vitamin E is plentiful in raw nuts and seeds, especially sunflower seeds. Alpha-tocopherol is the main form of vitamin E. There are four tocopherols with proven antioxidant activity. There are also four tocotrienols in the vitamin E family with even stronger antioxidant activity. These natural forms of vitamin E neutralize free radicals in the fatty areas of the body."
- Dr. Steve Blake, Vitamins and Minerals Demystified (Get the book.)
| "Research published in an October 2007 issue of the International Journal of Cosmetic Science reported that when an extract from black tea leaves was topically applied to skin that was then exposed to UV radiation, burning was prevented, apparently because the extract absorbed the UVB rays within cells, protecting DNA against damage from sun exposure." - Samuel S. Epstein, Randall Fitzgerald, Toxic Beauty: How Cosmetics and Personal Care Products Endanger Your Health . . . And What You Can Do about It (Get the book.)
| "Studies show that alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) helps protect the brain against damage caused by free-radical-induced oxidative stress, which has important implications for its potential role in protecting against Alzheimer's disease.147'148
Other good news is that the high blood sugar of diabetes and the increased risk for Alzheimer's is related to consumption of processed high-glycemic foods, not natural foods. Juicy new research suggests that antioxidants in fruit and vegetable juices may lower the risk of Alzheimer's disease." - Gabriel Cousens, There Is a Cure for Diabetes: The Tree of Life 21-Day+ Program (Get the book.)
| "Like other antioxidants, coenzyme Q10 can engulf free radicals before they have a chance to do damage, protecting DNA, cellular membranes, and even various enzyme systems involved in the metabolism of food and oxygen in the body. We know that the health of every cell in the body depends upon the balance of free radicals and antioxidants. It has been theorized that such antioxidant activity has been needed for millions of years, ever since oxygen appeared in the earth's atmosphere." - Stephen T. Sinatra, M.D., The Sinatra Solution Metabolic Cardiology (Get the book.)
"This study was conducted using an animal model because it was so invasive, but the results very clearly show the impact of ribose in protecting the heart following a myocardial infarction (heart attack).
In this study, animals were given a heart attack by reducing the blood flow to a portion of the heart. They were then given ribose or a sugar placebo for two- to four weeks before the heart was studied."

| "All you have to do is commit to protecting this time slot for exercise. Then you can also find other ways to fit exercise into your daily
99 lifestyle: walking in malls, strolling with a friend, taking your pets to the park. I do a fifteen-minute block between six and six-thirty each morning. My commute is fifteen minutes, and I don't have to be at the office until seven forty-five, so this gives me ninety minutes to exercise, eat, and get ready for work.
You may wonder: why bother with exercise if you're doing all the other important Vitamin D Cure steps? Here's why." - James Dowd and Diane Stafford, The Vitamin D Cure (Get the book.)
"Recent information on the role of vitamin D in protecting us from infections suggests a 50 percent reduction in the risk of respiratory infections with fortification of vitamin D and diet.
