Gary Null See book keywords and concepts | If your diet or nutritional supplement does not supply enough phosphorus, your body will be unable to make its "intercellular cement," collagen, and this will adversely affect the health of your bones, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, skin, organ-supporting tissue, and eyes. Various diseases—all related to inadequate collagen production—can result: rheumatic fever, kidney tubule inflammation, scleroderma (skin that has a leathery look and feel), and rheumatoid arthritis. | Bernie S. Siegel, M.D. See book keywords and concepts | One may want a comprehensive nutritional supplement program, while another thinks taking dozens of pills a day is too much of a nuisance, and it becomes counterproductive. Some can just "leave their troubles to God" and be healed. Others need what I call the "football coach" method, in which the patient plans every detail. I thought of the phrase while working with Eileen, a patient who saw a hypnotherapist regularly, picked the date for surgery herself, and hired private-duty nurses. She made sure she was in control of the situation and ready for every eventuality. | Ronald L. Hoffman, M.D. See book keywords and concepts | The nutritional supplement 6, no. 2 (1991).

The safest way to boost tryptophan naturally is to eat carbohydrate-rich foods, such as potatoes, rice, pasta, and bread. They naturally stimulate the passage of tryptophan into the brain, where it turns to serotonin automatically. See chapter 7 for more details.
Ginger, the common spice, also appears to help block inflammation in musculoskeletal disorders. It has been found to be useful in arthritis and many other conditions, but controlled trials have not yet been conducted. | The Life Extension Editorial Staff See book keywords and concepts | Each can contained 16.1 grams of protein and 1.09 grams of EPA. At the beginning of the study, all patients were losing weight at baseline at a median rate of 2.9 kg a month. After administration of the fish oil-enriched supplement, patients had a significant weight gain at both 3 and 7 weeks (Batbet et al. 1999).
In another study by Barber et al. (2000), after 3 weeks of an EPA-enriched supplement, the body weight of the cancer patients had increased and the energy expenditure in response to feeding had tisen significantly, such that it was no different from baseline healthy control values. | the Editors of PREVENTION See book keywords and concepts | To slow cartilage breakdown and help repair the joint, give your pet a daily dose of glucosamine sulfate, a nutritional supplement derived from cartilage, says Jeanne Olson, D.V.M., a holistic veterinarian in North Pole, Alaska.

Indirect additives are chemicals or compounds present but not added deliberately to change a product. Pesticides can be classified based on their use. Table 3-2 lists examples of indirect synthetic food additives, including pesticides, according to their use category. Representative chemical classes are presented. Over the past several decades, pesticides from many of these categories have been banned or otherwise regulated because of a concern for their carcinogenic potential or other risk to human health or the environment. | Christopher Hobbs See book keywords and concepts | Ying et al, 1987).
Medical Uses
Cordyceps sinensis is known as an antiasthmatic and anticancer agent which causes smooth muscle relaxation and can potentiate the effects of epinephrine. It has been used to stimulate the endocrine system, as an antibacterial agent, and for patients suffering from chronic renal failure.
In China, C. sinensis is used to regulate and support the gonads and as a lung and kidney tonic. It is used specifically for excessive tiredness, persistent cough, impotence, debility, and anemia. | | An article in Newsweek (Sept. 27, 1993, p. 63) reported on the female Chinese long-distance runners who shocked the sports world by sweeping the distance events at the World Outdoor Track and Field Championships in Stuttgart, Germany. Shortly after, Wang Junxia broke 3 world records in 6 days of competition, and Qu Yunxia broke another long-standing record in China's National Games. These remarkable performances led the international athletics community to voice accusations that the women might have been taking outlawed performance-enhancing drugs. | Jean Carper See book keywords and concepts | Yes, herbal remedies, botanical medicines, and natural drugs of all kinds, available anywhere without restriction or prescription, are being embraced by Americans. "Medical experts say that over the past ten years, more people have been turning to more kinds of alternative therapies than ever before," wrote New York Times science reporter Gina Kolata in June 1996. Some see this movement as "a return to our roots," a desire for natural medicines used by our ancestors. |
