Note: This is not a product order page, but instead, is offered for informational purposes ... Many reasons why you should not consume dairy products : 1) dairy products may play a major role in the development of allergies , asthma, sleep difficulties , and migraine headaches . PEDIATRICS , 1989, 84(4) 2) At least 50% of all childern in the UNITED STATES are allergic to cows milk , many undiagnosed . Dairy products are the leading cause of food allergy , often revealed by diarrhea , constipation , and fatigue . many cases of asthma and sinus infections are reported to be relieved and even eliminated by cutting out dairy . NATHANIEL MEAD , M.D., NATURAL HEALTH , JULY , 1994
3) IN REALITY , cows milk , has been linked to a variety of health problems , including : mucous production , hemoglobin loss , childhood diabetes , heart disease , atherosclerosis , arthritis , kidney stones , mood swings , depression, irritability , and allergies. JULIE KLOTTER , M.D., TOWNSEND MEDICAL LETTER , MAY, 1995
4) Formula-fed babies , at the age of three months , were secreting low levels of serum antibodies to bovine proteins contained in their formula . PEDIATRIC-ALLERGY-IMMUNOLOGY, AUGUST, 1994, 5(3)
5) Most formula-fed infants developed symptoms of allergic rejection to cow milk proteins before one month of age. about 50%-70% experienced rashes or other skin symptoms, 50-60 percent gastrointestinal symptoms , and 20-30 percent respiratory symptoms. the recommended therapy is to avoid cows milk.

6) there are hundreds of millions of different proteins in nature, and only one hormone that is identical between any two species . that powerful growth hormone is INSULINE-LIKE GROWTH FACTOR , OR IGF-I. IGF-I SURVIVES DIGESTION AND HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AS THE KEY FACTOR IN BREAST CANCERS GROWTH . IGF-I IS IDENTICAL IN HUMMAN AND COW , BY DRINKING COWS MILK , ONE DELIVERS IGF-I TO THE BODYS CELLS .
Humman insulin-like growth factor(IGF-I) and bovine IGF-I ARE IDENTICAL . SCIENCE, VOL.249, AUGUST 24, 1990

Serum IGF-I levels increased significantly in milk drinkers, an increase of about 10% above baseline but was unchanged in the control group. JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN DIETETIC ASSOCIATION, VOL. 99, NO. 10, OCTOBER 1999 The most serious of bacterial cow disease for dairymen is caused by " mycobacterium paratuberculosis . This bacterium causes a bovine disease called " JOHNE'S ". Cows diagnosed with ' JOHNE'S " disease have diarrhea and heavy fecal shedding of bacteria . These bacteria become cultured in milk , and are not destroyed by pasteurization. Occasionally , the milkborne bacteria will begin to grow in the humman host , and irritable bowel syndrome and CROHN'S RESULTS . IT IS REASONABLE TO CONJECTURE THAT M. PARATUBERCULOSIS MAY BE RESPONSIBLE FOR SOME CASES OF "CROHN'S DISEASE " . Johne's disease and CROHN'S disease are renmarkably similar in clinica signs and intestinal pathology. HOARD'S DAIRYMAN , JANUARY 24, 1995
Mycobacterium paratuberculosis crosses the species barrier to infect and cause disease in hummans. BRITISH MEDICAL JOURNAL, FEB 1998 , 315 Mycobacterium paratuberculosis RNA WAS FOUND in 100% of CROH'S disease patients , compared with 0% of controls . PROCEEDINGS NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES USA : 93 : SEPTEMBER , 1996 STUDIES have shown that bovine serum albumin is the milk protein responsible for the onset of diabetes ... patients with INSULIN-DEPENDENT diabetes mellitus produce antibodies to cow milk proteins that participate in the development of islet dysfunction...taken as a whole , our findings suggest that an active response in patients with IDDM ( to the bovine protein ) is a feature of the autoimmune response . NEW ENGLAND JOURNAL OF MEDICINE , JULY 30 , 1992
IN LIEU of the recent evidence that cow's milk protein may be implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus, we believe that the committee on NUTRITION should clarify whether cow's milk is ever appropriate for childern and whether or not infant formulas that are based on cow's milk protein are appropriate alternatives to BREAST MILK . PEDIATRICS , JULY , 1992 : 3 Antibodies to bovine beta-casein are present in over a third of " IDDM " PATIENTS AND RELATIVELY non-existent in healthy individuals . THE LANCET, OCTOBER , 1996, 348 Introduction of diry products and high milk consumption during childhood may increase the child's risk of developing juvenile diabetes . DIABETOLOGIA, 1994; 37 (4) THese studies , and more than 20 well documented previous ones , have promoted one researcher to say the link between milk and juvenile diabetes is "very solid ". diabetes care 1994, 17(12) MILK allergies are very common in childern... they are the leading cause of the chronic ear infections that plague up to 40% of all childern under the age of six . JULIAN WITAKER , M.D. HEALTH & HEALING , OCTOBER , 1998 , VOLUME 8 , NO .10 If a bottelefed baby has an ear infection , eleminate milk and dairy products from the child's diet for thirty days to see if any benefits result... a cause of frequent ear infections in childern is food allergies . WILLIAM NORTHRUP, M.D., NATURAL HEALTH JULY, 94
From 1965 to 1996 , a considerable shift to adolescent diet occurred ..... increases occurred in the consumption of higher fat potatoes and mixed dishes ( pizza , macaroni&cheese )... these trends , far greater than for US adults, may compromise the health of the future US population . ARCHIVES OF DISABLED CHILD, 2000 JUL, 83:1 INsulin-like growth factor-I(IGH-I) is expressed in many tumor cell lines and has a role in both normal cell proliferation and in the growth of cancers . CSNCER GENE THERAPIES, 2000 MAR, 7:3 THe insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system is widely involved in human carcinogenesis . A significant association between high circulating IGF- I concentrations and an increased risk of lung, colon, prostate and pre-menopausal breast cancer has recently been reported . INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CANCER, 2000 AUG, 87:4 Excessive milk consumption may adversely effect the circulation on account of the high calcium content of milk and because lactose promotes the intestinal absorption of calcium. Excessive calcium intake may cause calcification and irigification of the large elestic arteries, which could be an important factor in causing myocardial ischaemia .
At least 50% of all childern in the united states are allergic to milk, many undiagnosed. Dairy products are the leading cause of food allergy, often revealed by constipation, diarrhea, and fatigue . Many cases of asthma and sinus infections are reported to be relieved and even eliminated by cutting out dairy. FRANK OSKI, M.D., CHIEF OF PEDIATRICS AT JOHNS HOPKINS MEDICAL SCHOOL DON'T DRINK YOUR MILK, JULY, 1994 Chronic diarrhea is the most common gastrointestinal symptom of intolerance of cow's milk among childern....cow's milk can also cause severe perianal lesions with pain on defecation and consequent constipation in young childern . In young childern , chronic constipation can be a manifestation of intolerance of cow's milk . NEW ENGLAND JOURNAL OF MEDICINE , 1998 OCT, 339:16
Alergic asthma and rhinitis, atopic dermatitis (AD) , urticaria and gastrointestinal allergy, are common diseases of infants and childern. Cow's milk appears to be the most common offending food both in gastrointestinal and in cutanewous manifestattions of atopic disease. IT WAS RECENTLY ESTIMATED THAT 14% OF CHILDERN SUFFER FROM AD AND about 25% from adverse reaction to cow's milk . EUROPEAN REVIEW MEDICAL PHARMACOLOGICAL SCIENCE, 1998 MAY BULK TANK MILK FROM 131 DAIRY HERDS IN EASTERN SOUTH DAKOTA AND WESTERN MINNESOTA WERE EXAMINED FOR COLIFORMS AND NONCOIFORM BACTERIA . COLIFORMS OBSERVED IN 76.3% OF BULK TANK MILK. Journal of Dairy Science , 1999 dec, 82:12 LACTOSE , a milk sugar, is composed of two sugars, glucose and galactose . Most adults " lack " the enzyme , lactase , to break down lactose . instead , lactose is broken down by bacteria in the lower intestines . Bacteria eat too . Problem is, after bacteria dine , their own body wastes combine with those sugars to ferment into gas and toxins , causing bloatin and cramps . Lactose intolerance is widespread.......lactose maldigestion may coexict in adults with irritable bowel syndrome and in childern with recurrent abdominal pain. Management consists primarily of dietary changes . POSTGRADUATE MEDICAL JOURNAL, 1998 SEP, 104:3
Females with lactose malabsorption not only showed signs of irritable bowel syndrome but also signs of PMS and mental depression.....Lactose malabsorption should be considered in patients with signs of mental depression . DIGESTIVE SCIENCE, 1998 NOV, 43:11
IN 1907 , DR. ALZHEIMER published a treatise about a disease that wouls one day carry his name . He had two young colleagues who worked with him , DR CREUTZFELDT AND DR. JAKOB , they too identified a similar brain -wasting disease that now has the world in a panic . THE brains of cows turn into a sponge-like mass and their behavior is called " mad " . The human variant of "MAD COW DISEASE " has been named after DR. CREUTZFELDT JAKOB DISEASE , or CJD . The protein causing CJD has no DNA , and has been described as more like a crystal than cellular material . In labs 1000 degree FAHERNHEIT heat does not destroy this protein particle . Some scientists say that one infected , the incubation period can last anywhere from one month to thirty years . AS the humman brain turns into a sponge , this spongioform encephalitic condition physically debilitates those so infected . The destruction of milk from suspected cows was recommended in england to insure the public's saftey....experiments also indicate that tempratures reached during pasteurization of milk and household cooking does not kill the agent . In the UNITED KINGDOM on December 1, 1988 the government announce a ban on the sale of milk from infected cattle ... VIRGIL HULSE, M.D., MAD COW2S AND MILKGATE
The largest contributors to daily intake of chlorinated insecticides are dairy products , meat, fish, and poultry. SANDRA STEINGRABOR , PHD., LIVING DOWNSTREAM
The the level of dioxin in a single serving of the BEN & JERRY'S WORLD'S BEST VANILLA ICE CREAM tested was almost 200 times greater than the " virtually safe { daily } dose " determined by the enviromental protection agency . ATEVE MILLOY , AUTHOR OF JUNKSCIENCE .COM ( MILLOY TESTED SAMPLES OF ICE CREAM FOR DIOXINS ) The only safe level of dioxin exposure is no exposure at all . BEN & JERRY'S PROMOTIONAL LITERATURE The lipophilic nature of dioxins results in higher concentrations in the fat of animal and fish products, and their excertion via milk secretion in dairy cattle may result in relativly high concentrations of dioxin contamination . JOURNAL OF ANIMAL SXIENCE , 1998 JAN , 76:1
Atrazine is used primarily as a weed killer in the production of feed corn . This highly toxic herbicide has been linked to many kinds of cancer , including cancer of the BREAST , OVARIES , UTERUS , AND TESTICLES , as well as LEUKEMIA and LYMPHOMA.... According to farming averages and data supplied by the VERMONT DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE , BEN & JERRY'S farmers now use thousands of pounds of carcinogenic ATRAZINE every year . FOOD AND WATTER JOURNAL , SUMMER 1998
RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS IS MORE SEVERE THAN OSTEOARTHRITIS , is most common in the hands and feet , and is characterized by swelling of joints . Since this type of joint pain can be a symptom of a food allergy , dietary change sometimes has a profound effect. Dairy products , the most common food allergen , are one likely candiate as a contributing causative factor . GEORGE EISMAN , M.A., M.SC., RD., VEGETARIAN AND VEGAN NUTRION
I ONCE SAW A 65-YEAR -OLD MAN , BOB , WHO COMPLAINED OF NECK STIFFNESS AND HEADACHES . His hands were so stiff and sore . Bob lived to play golf . I instructed him to give up all milk and dairy products. Since giving up dairy products , he no longer experienced experienced pain and headaches , and his hands were also pai-free. JOY , a 42-year-old WOMAN NOTICED THAT HER KNEES WERE PAIN -FREE AFTER eleminating dairy products . Once , after drinking a glass of milk , her knees swelled within 20 minutes. DANIEL TWOGOOD, D.C., NO MILK Being a mother of a 10 year old whom by birth has been a vegetrain , i have promised myself , that i would not put my child through what i went through . At age 21 i become allergic to dairy products , so severely that they dignosed me as asthmatic , possibly kidney stones ( i experienced kidney pains almost every night ) , no medication was able to relive my symptoms or my pain . One day i discovered , the days that i did not consume dairy , did not sneeze , itch , wheezed , or had pain in my kidnys . THE DAY I STOPPED DAIRY PRODUCTS was the happiest day of my life since than on have not had any issues with my lungs neither the kidnys . We have suggested to hundreds of people to give up dairy products , to gain a healtier body , they are allergy free and happy as well . In the far east countries or other parts of the world , where people do not consume dairy and other animal products , there 50 to 60 percent less arthritis and cancer cases , than the coutnries that consume heavy amounts of dairy and meats . If we stay with a holistic life style we can live a healthier , happier and longer life.
MAY GOD BLESS YOU WITH THE GIFT OF HEALTH , HAPPINESS
& LOVE,
WHY ARE YOU ASKED NOT TO CONSUME POTATOES, EGGPLANTS, TOMATOES .... IF YOU ARE SUFFERING FROM INFLAMATORY CONDITIONS? HEALTH RESEARCH ON NIGHTSHADE VEGETABLES HAS FOCUSED ON A SPECIAL GROUP ON SUBSTANCES FOUND IN ALL THESE VEGETATIONS CALLED " ALKALOIDS . IN CHEMICAL TERMS , ALKALOIDS ARE EASILY IDENTIFIED , BECAUSE THEY ALL HAVE AT LEAST ONE RING-LIKE STRUCTURE THAT CONTAINS " NITROGEN " . THERE ARE FOUR BASIC TYPES OF ALKALOIDS IN NIGHTSHADE VEGETABLES : 1) steroid alkaloids 2) tropane alkaloids 3) pyrrolizidine alkaloid 4) indole alkaloids STEROID ALKALOIDS IN "POTATO " MAINLY SOLANINE AND CHAONINE , HAVE BEEN STUDIED FOR THEIR HEALTH EFFECTS IN TWO AREAS: 1) THEIR ABILITY TO BLOCK ACTIVITY OF AN ENZYME IN NERVE CELLS CALLED "CHOLINTESTERASE " . MANY OF THE ALKALOIDS PRESENT IN NIGHTSHADE VEGETABLES POSSESS THIS KIND OF ACTIVITY , CALLED " CHOLINESTERASE INHIBITION . IF THE ACTIVITY OF CHOLINESTERASE IS STRONGLY BLOCKED , THE NERVOUS SYSTEM CONTROL OF THE MUSCLE MOVEMENT BECOME DISRUPTED , MUSCLE TWITCHING , TREMBLING , PARALYZIED BREATHING , CONVULSIONS POSSIBLY WILL RESULT , THE STEROID ALKALOIDS FOUND IN POTATO HAVE BEEN CLEARLY SHOWN TO BLOCK CHOLINESTERASE ACTIVITY , BUT THIS BLOCK DOES NOT USUALLY APPEAR STRONG ENOUGH TO PRODUCE NERVE- MUSCLE DISRUPTIONS LIKE TWITCHING OR TREMBLING . 2) SECOND TYPE OF PROBLEM RELATED TO THE POTATO ALKALOIDS INVOLVES DAMAGE TO THE " JOINTS " CAUSED BY " IFLAMATION AND LOSS OF MINERALS . RESEARCHERS HAVE SPECULATED THAT NIGHTSHADE ALKALOIDS CAN CONTRIBUTE TO EXCESSIVE LOSS OF CALCIUM FROM THE BONE AND EXCESSIVE DEPOSITING OF CALCIUM IN SOFT TISSUE . ELEMINATION OF NIGHTSHADE FOODS FROM THE MEAL PLAN OF ALL INDIVIDUALS WITH " OSTEOARTHRITIS , GOUT , RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS AND OTHER INFLAMATORY CONDITIONS IS NECCESARY . BY SURPRISE OF MANY RESEARCHERS , NIGHTSHADE FOODS DO CONTAIN VERY SMALL AMOUNTS OF DRUG-LIKE ALKALOIDS THAT HAVE FACINATED MEDICAL AND DRUG RESEARCHERS . THE MOST FAMOUS OF THE ONE-RING TYPE ALKALOIDS " MONOCYCLIC ALKALOID" FOUND IN HIGHEST CONCENTRATIONS IN " TOBACCO " , NICOTINE . THIS ALKALOID IS FOUND NOT ONLY IN NON-FOOD NIGHTSHADE VEGETABLES IT IS ALSO FOUND IN NON -FOOD NIGHTSHADES SUCH AS " TOBACCO , ALSO IN THE NIGHTSHADES INCLUDING " EGGPLANT AND TOMATO " . WHILE ALKALOIDS LIKE NICOTINE ARE DEFINTELY FOUND IN NIGHTSHADE FOODS , THE AMOUNT IS DRAMATICALLY LESS . EGGPLANT HAS THE HIGHEST AMOUNT OF NICOTINE CONTENT AFTER TOBACCO , YET THE AMOUNT OF NICOTINE IS FAR LOWER THAN THE AMOUNT FOUND IN TOBACCO . ALTHOUGH THE AMOUNT OF " NICOTINE " IS VERY SMALL , STILL SEEMS POSSIBLE TO US THAT SOME INDIVIDUALS MIGHT BE PARTICULARLY SENSETIVE TO THE ALKALOIDS FOUND IN NIGHTSHADE FOODS , EVEN VERY SMALL AMOUNTS MIGHT COMPROMISE FUNCTION IN THE BODIES OF THESE INDIVIDUALS .
NUTRITIONAL SUPPLEMENT EFFECTIVENESS The single most important factor in determining the effectiveness of any nutricianal supplement, is the body's ability to absorb these nutrients. Most multi-vitamin/mineral formulations are predominately laboratory synthesized. Over 60 clinical studies have shown that organic nutrients are absorbed up to 20 times more effectively than synthetic ones. Parsi Herbs Health Power brings you organically grown (99.99%) nutrients exactly as they occur in their natural form. Unlike synthetic supplements the vitamins, co vitamins, minerals, trace elements, amino acids, enzymes, co enzymes, and essential fatty acids all work together to ensure maximum assimilation and utilization. Nothing has been added, and nothing removed. The Health Power is formulated with the understanding of the human body as a whole and not separate, and also the understanding of how each one of these nutrients affect each other in this formula, for maximum result. Enjoy the benefit of a healthier and most energized body and spirit, and emotional balance. Green Gift of Heaven at the Forefront of Cancer Research One of the simplest, most effective steps everyone can take is to add Spirulina to your diet. This nutrient rich (Spirulina) contains the complete Vitamin B complex group and many important anti-oxidants (all protectors). It is the richest natural source of Vitamin E and Beta Carotene. Other anti-oxidants present are Phycocyanin, mixed caroteneids, Selenium, Zinc, as well as a vast array of trace elements and minerals. Phycocyanin, a rare Blue Pigment is a powerful immune stimulant. Vitamin B12 and Iron are two nutrients commonly lacking , especially in most vegetarian diets. Supplementing daily with Spirulina will help fill in these nutricianal gaps. Extra Extra Energy Contains ... The reason Spirulina is so so green is also why Spirulina is so good for you. Spirulina contains large quantities of Chlorophyll and Phycocyanin. Chlorophyll traps sunlight to create energy and gives that energy back to you. If you find you need a little extra energy through the day, take one more Health Power. Essential Fatty Acids Contains ... Spirulina is a highly concentrated source of essential Fatty Acids. It is one of a few whole food sources containing Omega 3 and 6 Fatty Acids in the form of Linoleic, dinolenic and Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA). These Fatty Acids are essential to good health (essential for women). Spirulina is speedily assimilated so that within minutes a vast array of nutrients are available to the bloodstream. In particular the amino acids Phenylalanine and Valine help to release an appetite controlling hormone, which gives you the "I feel full" signal. While spirulina contains no harmful chemical substances, it is a great way of naturally bringing your appetite into balance. Barley Grass Contains ... Enhances digestion and absorption of nutrients, regulates movement, so there are fewer occurrences of indigestion. It provides a synergistic combination of antioxidants including alpha-carotene, beta-carotene, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, glycosylisovitexin, superoxide dismutase, catalase, chlorophyll, and selenium. Broccoli ... New research suggest that broccoli is especially good for the stomach. A compound found in broccoli appears to be more effective than modern antibiotics against the bacteria that causes peptic ulcers. Tests in mice suggest the compound offers formidable protection against stomach cancer, the second most common form of cancer worldwide. More human testing has shown stomach cancer is becoming almost an epidemic among Asians. The new work, led by scientists at Johns Hopkins University, is the latest in a 10 year series of studies on the cancer fighting potential of broccoli. It started in 1992, when Hopkins Pharmacology Professor Paul Talay and his colleagues showed that sulforaphane , a substance produced in the body from a compound in broccoli, could trigger the production of Phase 11 enzymes. The enzymes can detoxify cancer causing chemicals and are among the most potent anti-cancer compounds known. Do you eat broccoli every day? You will in our Health Power... Parsley Contains ... This ancient herb was frequently used in many different formulas by the Persian Scholler Physician Ibnn Sinna for chorionic kidney and bladder flushes, as a blood cleanser, blood builder, intestinal cleanser and for lowering blood pressure. It is full of potassium and Vitamin C. Licorice Contains ... A wonderful root that has been used in Persian medicine for centuries as a blood sugar adjuster (hypoglycemia), quick energy and balancing adrenals. Cabbages ... The National Cancer Institute has invested well over $20 million in recent years to investigate the anticancer properties of plant foods. Foods with high anticancer activity include red and green cabbages. Cabbages contain anticancer phytochemicals. Phytonutrients appear to have an anticancer effect on estrogen dependent cancer such as certain types of breast and uterine cancer. An example is indole 3 carbinol found in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, and cabbages. This substance appears to shift the metabolic pathway, so estrogen can no longer be activated, thus decreasing cancer risk. Carrot Contains ... The most valuable source of vitamin A among all vegetables. Recent studies indicate that foods rich in carotenoids are effective at reducing the risk of developing lung cancer. Beta-carotene has tremendous effect on skin and eye health. Beta-carotene inhibits the early stages of tumor development and improves immune function. Free radical damage has been implicated in a growing number of acute exercise excess (sunburn, radiation injury, oxidizing pollutants) and chronic clinical conditions (ageing, arthritis, atherosclerosis, cancer, inflammation, cataract formation, macular degeneration, and iron overload). Evidence of free radical damage in the aetiology of cancer and ocular cataract has emerged persuasively. Our goal is to help prevent the free radical damage and reverse the ageing process. As Ibnn Sinna said (8th century Persia) in the Cannon of Medicine "as we have the power to create happiness or sadness, we can also prevent disease." Artichoke Contains ... Has been used as a detoxifier, diuretic, antichlolatrol hepatoprotective, tonic. It is from the same family as milkthistle. The phytochemicals in artichokes have been well documented. The leaves have beneficial effects on the gall bladder to stimulate the secretion of bile in the liver, detoxify the liver and lower the level of cholesterol in the blood. Asparagus Contains ... Very high in antioxidant Lycopen, used as a diuretic and is anti arthritic. It is also a very beneficial food to the stomach, improves vision, moves bowels, and relieves pain in the kidneys. Basil ... This herb originated in Persia, however it is one of the most common herbs used worldwide to help mild nervous tension headaches and nausea. It is also known as carminative (relieves gas) and to have some effect inhibiting the organism that cause dysentery. Cardamon ... Has been highly valued both as a spice and medicine. It goes as far back as the 4th century, BC. Throughout history, cardamon has been used for the relief of digestive problems, especially indigestion, gas and cramps. Cardamon is an effective treatment for bad breath, and warms the heart. Dill Has been used for thousands of years for relieving insomnia due to indigestion, expelling gas (carminative), relieving hiccups, easing swelling, and pains. Tarragon Fights intestinal parasites, relieves insomnia, hyperactivity, depression or nervous exhaustion. While Tarragon stimulates digestion, it is reputed to be a sedative and has been taken to aid sleep. It is also used to prevent heart disease. Borage Has been referred to as the "herb of courage". It reduces fever, cough, sore throat, colds, is a decongestant for the lungs, expels toxins of all kinds (detoxifies), ringworms, repairs internal ulcers, expels mucus, and calms the nervous system. It is recommended for Pleurisy and Peritonitis, the heart, adrenal glands, the entire digestive system, and jaundice. It is definitely an immune booster. Borage is very high in potassium and Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA). Shitaki Mushroom This mushroom was used by Ibnn Sinna for its anti-cancer properties. It also has anti-viral, anti-tumor properties, lowers cholesterol, and increases libido. It is definitely an immune enhancer, detoxifier and enhances the liver function. L-Carnitine Contains ... Acetyl-L-Carnitine plays several important roles in the human body. This nutrient shuttles acetyl groups and fatty acids into mitochondria for energy production. It helps to improve energy production. It also helps to make the important brain chemical acetylcholine. Some studies suggest that perhaps Acetyl-L-Carnitine can even act as a neurotransmitter itself. Acetyl-L-Carnitine enhances learning capacity. Research has shown improvement on Alzeheimers patients when used properly. According to FDA testing (Food and Drug Administration), this vital nutrient is rich in magnesium, choline, thanolanine, Inositol, calcium, some iron and essential fatty acids (EPA), helps liver and brain health and cellular transport of nutrients and wastes. Is an important, naturally occurring, vitamin-like nutrient. It is a fat soluble, super antioxidant supplement whose actions in the body and chemical structure resemble those of vitamin E and K. Co-Q-10 is an essential nutrient that supplies the biochemical "spark that creates cellular energy" says Doctor Emile G. Blixnak, President of the Lupus Research Institute. Co-Q-10 acts as a "shuttle" for electrons involved in the creation of energy producing enzymes. Our bodies cannot survive without it. If body levels start dropping, so does our general health. Scientists estimate that once levels drop below 25% deficient levels, many disease states begin to flourish. Studies have shown that high acidic levels in the human body encourage the growth of disease. A proper PH level between 7.0 and 7.5 helps to stop disease and return your body back to its proper condition (state). According to current studies, disease can take root, if your body is acidic. Calcium helps to restore proper PH levels by removing the acid in your body and returning it back to its healthy state. Coral Calcium PH has proven beneficial for weight balance, cancer, joint pain, heart disease, high cholesterol, muscle cramps, kidney stones, indigestion, allergies, and headaches. It is very helpful in the treatment of diabetes and high blood pressure. There are many studies which allude to the fact that high phosphorous or phosphoric acid found in meats and soft drinks pulls calcium out of the bone structure (bones, teeth and nails) in the process of digestion and assimilation. This has a disastrous effect on bone density, leaving them porous and spongy. When calcium is pulled from your bones, it is released through the kidneys, resulting in kidney stones before it is excreted. It is very important to pay attention to ones proper eating patterns and consume low or no meats. Coral calcium is the best form of calcium available, from Okinawa, Japan and above sea levels. Did you know your bones act as a calcium stone? If you don't get enough in your diet your body will extract what it needs from your bones. It doesn't ask if that is OK with you, it just does it, leaving your bones brittle and creating and acidic cellular environment allowing disease to develop and grow in your body! It is a proven fact that healthy people all have an alkaline cellular PH. Biologically, all forms of calcium are not processed the same in your body. Calcium is one of the most difficult elements for the body to digest and absorb. Vitamin D is essential to calcium uptake. For example; Calcium Lactate, from dairy products, only yields about 30% absorbable calcium. Calcium Carbonate only yields about 5% absorbable calcium. Milk and antiacids aren't the great source of calcium they are claimed to be! Marine bed Coral Calcium is ionic calcium (ca++) and is the only physiologically active form of this element. This means the body doesn't have to convert the source into calcium. We have added Vitamin D, magnesium and other minerals derived from plants and coral providing for nearly 100% absorbable calcium. Folic Acid Contains ... Is a water soluble B Vitamin that helps build healthy cells. Research has indicated in the study of 1321 women between the ages of 25 and 64 years with breast cancer that were given 345 mlg of folic acid and 1382 given 195 mlg or lower, that the women with 345 mlg or higher had 38% lower risk than the group given 195 mlg. Although pancreatic cancer accounts for 2 percent of all cancers worldwide, it is the 5th leading cause of cancer deaths in the U.S. The five year survival rate is less than 5 percent. Researchers at the National Cancer Institute and the Finish National Health Institute now report that an adequate folic acid intake can materially decrease the rate of cancer. Our Health Power gives you the power to stay in a state of balance at all times. Our goal is to ensure quality of health, prolong life and happiness, peaceful and active. Parsi Herbs brings the best of Persian medicine combined with modern scientific information for harmonious body, mind and spirit. This Formula has been tested in our practice for many years and proved successful in every way. Mens Support Hydrangea Root has been used to treat inflamed or enlarged prostate glands. It is also used for urinary stones or gravel associated with urinary infections. Seronoa Serrulata Contains ... This herb acts to tone and strengthen the male reproductive system. It may be used safely to boost the make sex hormones as required. It is specific in cases of enlarged prostate glands. Seronoa Serrulata is also useful in all infections of the genito-urinary tract. It improves digestion and encourages assimilation. It influences the mucous structure of the nose, throat and Bronchi in a remarkable manner, overcoming catarrh and restoring normal function. Uva Ursi Leaf Contains ... Possesses very valuable properties that can assist in the treatment of urinary tract complaints. The herb is reputed to be effective in dissolving stones in the kidney and bladder and in eliminating uric acid from the blood. It is also used for rheumatism and other conditions affected by an accumulation of acids and waste products in our system. It will soothe, tone and strengthen the urinary system and definitely plays an important role in the holistic approach to more chronic kidney problems. Damiana Leaf Contains ... Is an excellent strengthening remedy for the nervous as well as hormonal system. It is very useful in treating depression and anxiety, particularly when influenced by sexual factors. It is also used to strengthen the make sexual system. It has an ancient reputation as an aphrodisiac. Ginger Contains ... This warming herb, stimulates the circulation, remedies digestive problems, and Japanese researchers have discovered cardiac-tonic principles in Ginger root. It is also said to be used with other herbs to enhance their effectiveness. Ginger was used by Ibnn Sinna for moving circulation to the male reproductive system. Korean Ginseng Contains ... Korean Ginseng has a high content of Ginsenosides which are arousing, which are arousing, stimulating and cause an increase in motor activity. The root has also been of benefit in conditions of tiredness, weakness, debility, convalescence, low resistance and aging. It acts on the adrenal and pituitary glands to increase mental and physical work capacity, increase concentration and mental activity, and enhance mental acuity. It is also used as a tonic to enhance immune power. Siberian Ginseng Contains ... Improves endurance and treats low vitality. It promotes healthy cell growth, balances male hormonal health and enhances immune and lung function. Siberian Ginseng is useful for arthritis, circulatory problems, diabetes, infertility, lack of energy and stress. It contains: calcium, vitamin A, B12, Vitamin E, eleutherosides, mucilage, Iron, arabinose and essential oils. Hawthorne Berry Contains ... Increases blood flow and encourages healthy blood pressure levels. It can actually help regulate both high and low blood pressure in addition to breaking down cholesterol and fat. It normalized healthy heart function. High in vitamin C, Quercetin (Flavonoids) Proanthocyanidins, anthocynaidins,... Hawthorne berry helps to reduce water retention by expelling excess salt from the body. It reduces nervous tension, alleviates nervous tension, alleviates insomnia and aids digestion. Sarsaparilla Contains ... Has a great reputation as a blood purifier. It may be used to aid proper functioning of the body as a whole and in the correction of systemic problems as skin (psoriasis) and rheumatic conditions. L-Carnitine Contains ... Is an amino acid like substance that helps to maintain overall good health by facilitating the transfer of fatty acids into the mitochondria. Kava Kava Contains ... This herb has been researched for over 100 years. It is now widely accepted that the active compounds are a group of 15 Lactones unique to this plant, referred to as Kavalactones. Kava Kava's primary use is as a sleep aid, and all researchers discuss fondly its mildly psychoactive properties which induce a feeling of relaxation, contentment and sharpening of the senses. This herb has also been used successfully for headaches. Zyzphus Contains ... Is used for mental focus, the respiratory system, sexual health and spleen health. It helps increase blood flow and oxygen to the male organs. It is also used to promote better memory, clear thinking, better mental focus and both sports and sexual performance. Zyzphus has been used in Persian medicine for centuries for male performance, as learned from the teachings of Ibnn Sinna. Curcumin or Tumeric Contains ... "This powerful antioxidant is capable of working as a potent agent that reduces tumor promotion", the researchers conclude. The study, in a recent issue of The Journal Cancer, is not the first to link Curcumin, a compound thought to be a potent anti-inflammatory agent, with certain health benefits. Studies also suggest that the compound might help heal wounds and fight Alzheimer's Disease and multiple sclerosis. It protects skin even during radiation therapy. Scientists have already shown that it can suppress tumor blood vessel growth. June 12, 2002 scientists reported "curcumin" blocked the accumulation of Beta-amaroid plaque and also appeared to reduce inflammation related to Alzheimer's Disease in neurologic tissue. "Curcumin, can enhance the cancer-fighting ability". "Curcumin's ability to inhibit all these factors for HIV replication offers hope for its HIV/Aids. In addition curcumin is a powerful antioxidant, three hundred times greater than that of Vitamin E". Research suggests that curcumin, Flavonoid present in Turmeric (curcuma Longa) roots, selectively inhibits the blood to clot, prevents excessive inflammatory response and reduces damage to vascular endothelia. Curcumin has also been shown to inhibit tobacco mutagenicity, suggesting it may help protect the vascular endothelia from damage caused by smoking. Chromemate Contains ... Is a superior source of biologically active chromium that can help you attain your health goals. Chromemate helps to control appetite, especially sugar cravings. It is believed that Chromium is sensitive to the glucose in the brain that monitors blood sugar availability and tells you when you are hungry or not. Does your body really need Chromium? Yes it does! That is if you wish to lead a healthy, vibrant life. A lack of chromium can impair insulin function. Chromium can boost your energy and help you lead a long healthy life. Tests have shown that chromium supplementation can play a significant role in reducing body fat, as well as help with building lean muscle tissue and lowering elevated cholesterol. Chromium is the metal nobody can afford to lose. Chromium, like iron, copper and zinc is one of the 16 essential trace minerals your body needs to keep healthy and fit. For people who are overweight or out of shape, chromium may be the most precious metal of all in its biological active form. Chromium helps insulin metabolize fat, turn protein into muscle and convert sugar into energy. In fact chromium activated insulin increases the amount of glucose available for energy production nearly twenty fold. In other words it helps to optimize energy output so that you feel healthy and alive. U.S. Government studies show that the diet of 90% of Americans are deficient in chromium, containing less than the minimum adequate amount of 50-200 mlg per day. The problem is even worse for dieters who restrict their calories and reduce their nutritional intake. Processing removes up to 80% of the chromium in food, and less than 20% of dietary chromium is actually absorbed. Even by eating well, it is difficult to replenish depleted chromium stores. Vitamin E ... ... is one of the most potent fat-soluble antioxidants in the body. As such, Vitamin E protects cell membranes from the damage caused by free radicals. High doses of Vitamin E have also been linked to a decreased ability of the blood to clot, which may be beneficial in those individuals at risk for heart disease by reducing the risk of heart attack. Vitamin E deficiencies are related to a wide variety of health problems including cataracts, heart disease, lung problems and liver damage. The use of Vitamin E as a "fertility enhancer" in humans is non-existent, but is still a part of the folklore surrounding Vitamin E as a dietary supplement. Several studies published over the last 2-3 years have clearly shown that natural vitamins 2-3 times a day, 200-400 Iu Ø Reduces risk of cardiovascular disease Ø Boosts immune function Ø Antioxidant Ø Wound healing Ø Reduces cancer risk Vitamin E is one of the most potent fat-soluble antioxidants in the body. As such, Vitamin E protects cell membranes from the damage caused by free radicals. High doses of Vitamin E have also been linked to a decreased ability of the blood clot, which may be beneficial to those at risk of heart disease, by reducing risk of heart attack. Acidophilus Contains ... Is a Probiotic, which is an organism that contributes to the health and balance of the intestinal tract, also referred to as the "friendly" beneficial, or "good" bacteria. When ingested, it acts to maintain a healthy intestinal tract and help fight illness and disease. This good microflora in your intestine can provide a protective effect only when a proper balance is maintained among all the different bacteria that normally reside in your intestine. "Probiotics may prevent antibiotic associated diarrhea" says Medscape Medical News 6-19-02. "Pubmed" says "Lactobacillus given to patients with irritable bowel syndrome are helpful in their recovery". "Humana Press" says Probiatic in Clinical trials Gastroenterology Department. Probiotics are nonpathogenic microorganisms which when ingested, exert a positive influence on the health or physiology of the host. Their mechanisms of action and effects are now studied using the same pharmacological approach as for drugs. These clinical situations studies include prevention or treatment of antibiotic-associated disorders, gastroenteritis and diarrhea, lactose intestinal infections and colonization by pathogenic bacteria (including Helicobacter Pylori and clostridium difficile), traveler's diarrhea, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), colonic cancer, urogenital infections and tumors, allergy (especially atopic eczema) vaccination, and cholesterol lowering. In our practice, we have used Probiotics (acidophilus) for all the named disorders and have seen tremendous results. We have also used acidophilus for treatment of chronic fatigue, and Candida Albicans which many now believe infects more that 80% of America. Zinc Oxide Contains ... Zinc is essential to the human body. Deficiency results in retarded growth, delayed sexual maturity, anorexia, loss of taste, and unhealthy skin. Necessary for wound healing, zinc is a mineral essential to many aspects of immunity. Zinc, like vitamin C, has direct antiviral activity including inhibiting the growth of the common cold virus. It is certainly considered an antioxidant, and helps relieve Bronchitis, eyesight failing, colon disease, hair loss, and macular degeneration. It is also for longevity, osteoarthritis, general pain, Insulin production, prostate health... Ascorbic Acid Contains ... Is a relatively fragile molecule and it may be lost from foods during preparation, cooking and/or storage. In spite of the fact that vitamin C is easily destroyed, it has the ability to preserve foods by virtue of its role as a reducing agent. Some scientists believe that naturally occurring bioflavinoids increase the influence of ascorbic acid on good health. Flavinoids are, in essence, plant pigments largely responsible for the colors of many fruits and vegetables containing large quantities of Vitamin C. Some plants and animals are able to produce their own ascorbic acid because they have a cascade of enzyme that can transform glucose into ascorbic acid when needed. Interestingly, somewhere in the chain of evolution, humans either lost or never developed the enzymes that can manufacture Vitamin C, and therefore are dependent on dietary intake of ascorbic acid. We have experienced results in this field with cancer, HIV, Chron's, Lupis and other autoimmune disorders, skin bruises and other skin disorders in our practice. The key to good health, mental and spiritual well being is to know yourself, believe in yourself, love yourself truly from the heart. Understand we were all created perfectly and equally.
