PP Power Up with Herbs Nov/2019 Dr Kathy Deane
NS Cats Claw Comb #175-0 Contains (Cat’s Claw) Uncaria tomentosa ;
Astragalus and Echinacea purpurea (echinacea).
Cats Claw in the vine
contains six alkaloids that have been isolated by scientists. Research suggests
four of these promote the functions of white blood cells and macrophages.
Scientists in Austria confirmed human WBC’ s and T-cells demonstrate increased
activity with Cats Claw. Dr. Brent Davis, calls Cats Claw, “The Opener of The
Way” referring to its ability to detoxify the intestinal tract and to treat a
variety of stomach and bowel disorders.
In 1988, an international congress was held in Lima, Peru to share
information on traditional Peruvian therapies. Several physicians lauded Cat’s
Claw and one specifically cited his use of the herb to successfully treating 14
types of confirmed cases of cancer in 700 patients between 1984 and 1988. Ref: —Cat’s Claw, The
Miracle Herb from the Rain Forest of Peru by Rita Elkins, page 12.
Cancer researchers state, Cat's Claw (CC) helps to
counteract the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation. South American
medical information documents the cancer-fighting effects of Cat's Claw, even
in advanced stages of cancer with as much as 10% of body cells
metastasized. In May of 1994, the
Townsend Letter For Doctors published an article noting Cat's Claw's
effectiveness in treating numerous gastrointestinal disorders, including
candidiasis, colitis, Crohn's, diverticulitis, fistulas, gastritis,
hemorrhoids, intestinal flora imbalances, leaky bowel syndrome, parasites,
ulcers, as well as allergies, arthritis, bursitis, cancer, environmental
poisoning, HIV, menstrual problems, PMS syndrome, rheumatism, and contains
powerful antioxidants which prevent free radical damage Scientists at Shanghai
College of Traditional Chinese Medicine have confirmed Cat's Claw exhibits the
ability to reduce and prevent platelet aggregation and thrombosis. This
discovery suggests Cat's Claw may help prevent stroke and reduce the risk of
heart attack by decreasing blood pressure, stimulating circulation, preventing
the accumulation of plaque on arterial walls, and inhibiting the formation of
blood clots in the vessels of the arteries, brain and heart.
Astragalus
-supports the production of stem cells in bone marrow and lymph tissue and
encourages their development into active immune cells and helps enhance the
body's production of immunoglobulin and stimulates macrophages. Astragalus helps stimulate circulation,
enhances white blood cell and immune function, increases cardiac function while
reducing blood pressure, and strengthens the body where there is weakness or
convalescence. In China, astragalus has long been used to stimulate immunity
and resistance to disease, and to fight respiratory and urinary tract
infections. Chinese studies show this herb increases energy, improves digestion
and reduces recovery time from chemotherapy and radiation. Astragalus also
improves "wasting” conditions and is particularly beneficial for children
due to its mild adoptogenic properties. Astragalus is typically recommended in
virtually any disease condition involving the cardiovascular, glandular, or
immune systems. Astragalus has also been
shown to reduce cell damage associated with heart disease caused by the
coxsackie virus. An article in Health News & Review, “Researchers at the
University of Texas at Houston discovered that T-cells, extracted from
individuals with cancer suffering from weakened T-cell activity, displayed
greater aggressive activity against disease with astragalus.
Echinacea purpurea,
one of the most scientifically studied herbs, enhances the body's own defenses
and helps in the fight to maintain overall health. Echinacea is a blood and lymph cleanser and
has been shown to be quite effective against Streptococcus, fight bronchitis,
colds, flu, infection, strep throat, and other immune and respiratory
problems.
NutriBiome Bacillus Coagulans Probiotics (90 Caps) Stock
No. 6109
For over a century,
good bacteria have been extoled as a means to improve our health. Today, these
microbes are better known as probiotics. Ref: Jason TetroMicrobiology, Health
& Hygiene Expert Bacillus Coagulans
are a strain of friendly probiotic that is naturally heat-stable, so no
refrigeration is required. It also readily withstands the stomach's acidic
environment providing better targeted support to the intestine and maintaining
balance in the microbiome.
Bacillus Coagulans
was first described in 1915, where it was found to rapidly coagulate evaporated
milk, rendering it useless. As research
into the nature of the bacterium continued it was found to be very hardy in
extreme environments. The reason was in
the life cycle of the bacterium instead of simply living and dying, it had the
ability to develop the dormant state in the form of a spore. This allowed the bacterium to withstand any
environmental storm and then return to normal growth once the danger had
subsided.
Around the end of the
last century the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance loomed. Even though
the crisis call from the World Health Organization was over a decade and a half
away, researchers were trying to find alternatives to stave off the
post-antibiotic era. In 1998 researchers found instead of an antibiotic an
antimicrobial chemical known as a bacteriocin in the feces of cattle. In the
hunt for the source, the team found the molecule was produced by the old dairy
enemy. Over the coming years, tests with Bacillus coagulans revealed it could
kill a variety of pathogenic bacteria, including antibiotic resistant bacteria.
Studies to assess safety, reduction of diarrhea, and even secondary symptoms
such as arthritis were performed. In all
cases results revealed the bacterium was ideal for a probiotic.

this bacterium in humans improves the vaginal flora, increases immune response
to viral challenges, abdominal pain and bloating in irritable bowel
syndrome
By 2012, a monograph
for the bacterium was released. Nature’s
Sunshine NutriBiome Bacillus Coagulans Probiotics undergoes LCMS testing. There are only 4 LCMS testing machines, 3
owned by the government and the other by Nature’s Sunshine. In addition to
being tested with the LCM there are over 600 other tests that NSP products undergo
to ensure their efficacy.
NS Colostrum
#1828
Bovine Colostrum is
known as a “Universal Donor” and is Clinically proven. Colostrum and its’ components’ have more
science, more published peer reviewed clinical studies than any other
nutritional substance known. Ref: Scientific Research studies from Sovereign
Laboratories. Colostrum is a substance “first milk” of mammals that contains
large protein molecules known as immunoglobulins. It contains specific antibodies, broad based
immune enhancers, insulin like growth factors, as well as leukocytes that
inhibit virus penetration of cellular walls.
Colostrum contains growth factors that help with growth and healing of
all body tissues, particularly connective tissues such as muscles, bone,
cartilage, skin collagen, and nervous tissue.
Colostrum’s proteins pass through the stomach to the small
intestine where they are easily absorbed and provides nutritional support to
the immune system. Colostrum binds
lectins that are found in all present-day grains and legumes that cause leaky
gut.
Colostrum has been
shown to be more than three times as effective as vaccines against flu5. It
helps stop and helps eliminate all types of infection throughout the body by
activating the immediate production of defense mechanisms and coordinates body
defenses for optimum health. It
mobilizes macrophages, T-cells and CD-4 lymphocytes and supercharges NK
(Natural Killer cell) responses by up to twenty times. Colostrum accelerates healing, balances blood
sugars, reduces insulin and regenerates and regulates neurotransmitters of the
brain, providing alertness and better concentration.
Colostrum retains the
warmth of the body temperature, is clinically proven to help burn fat and it
increases metabolism and stops burning muscle tissue between meals. Peptides
have been identified in milk and colostrum which function as ACE-inhibitors
that aid in lowering blood pressure.
Soluble colostrum powder can be added to infant formulas or mixed into
foods to assist immune and growth processes. When Donna Roth was 4 /5 years old
her younger sister was very sick.
Donnas’ dad went and got the colostrum from a young mare (horse) and fed
this to her sister. The sister overcame
her illness and was healthy. My father
insisted on all calves having colostrum, he said he would have weak calves if
the colostrum was not incorporated.
Colostrum is known as an antiaging food that regenerates and
accelerates skin collagen. It stimulates
growth and regeneration of all our body systems. “Every seven years your body goes through a
renewal process and you have a completely new body”? Why not give your body the
same regenerative and growth possibilities it had at our beginning?
