Alternative HealthandHerbs Valerian Root Powder Valeriana Officinalis 4 Oz Alternative HealthandHerbs Valerian root (Valeriana officinalis) contains many constituents, including essential oils that appear to contribute to the herb’s sedating qualities. Contemporary clinical studies have demonstrated that Valerian significantly improves sleep quality without morning grogginess. Regular, moderate use produces neither dependency nor health risks. Both the German E Commission and the World Health Organization recommend Valerian as a mild sedative, pain-reliever and sleep-promoting agent. Valerian (Valerian officinalis) has been used medicinally for at least 2,000 years. It was included in many editions of the United States Dispensatory (Merck) since 1849, which reported the herb's effect on the nervous system and its ability to produce drowsiness and sleep. Valerian root is used as a tea, decoction, fluid extract and tincture. Various valerian species are still included in the pharmacopoeiae of many nations including Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. The United States Pharmacopeial Convention has accepted a valerian monograph for inclusion in the National Formulary (Pharmacopeial Forum, 1998). It is widely used as a sedative and antispasmodic in the United States. Valerian preparations appear to be candidates for safe and effective nonaddictive alternatives to conventional sleep medications. Valerian roots contain several compounds with demonstrable pharmacological activity. These include the essential oil and its sesquiterpenoids (valerenic acid), epoxy iridoid esters (valepotriates) and their decomposition products such as baldrinal and homobaldrinal, amino acids (arginine, GABA, glutamine, tyrosine) and alkaloids. Valerian also contains small amounts of phenolic acids, flavonoids, valerosidatum, chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid, choline, B-sitosterol, fatty acids and various minerals. Valerian analyses have primarily focused on the essential oil, valerenic acid and valepotriates. In the United States, the essential oil and valerenic acid are commonly used as marker compounds for qualitative and quantitative analysis of valerian root and valerian products. Grieve's classic 'A Modern Herbal': 'Valerian has a remarkable influence on the cerebro-spinal system, and is used as a sedative to the higher nerve centres in conditions of nervous unrest, hypochrondriasis, neuralgic pains and the like. The drug allays pain and promotes sleep. It is of especial use and benefit to those suffering from nervous overstrain, as it possesses none of the after-effects produced by narcotics.'

Nutribiotic Grapefruit Seed Extract Liquid Concentrate 2 Fl Oz "Why would I want to use the GSE, Grapefruit Seed ExtractLiquid Concentrate?" As a natural, non-toxic compound our Liquid Concentrate has many uses. It may be used as a surface disinfectant in place of commonly used cleaners like bleach or ammonia-based products. Because of its non-toxic nature, the liquid concentrate is ideal for use in the kitchen and in children’s areas. The concentrate may also be used topically as an antiseptic wound cleaner and to treat infections of the skin. Internally, the concentrate is useful as a supportive treatment for a wide variety of ailments, including Candida infections, sore throats, intestinal upset, etc. The product can also be used to purify drinking water when camping or traveling to foreign countries.For vaginal douching. Mix 5-10 drops of Nutri Biotic GSE in 6-8 os oz. of water. Douche once daily for one week. Douche more often if desired. Always dilute."How can the product be non-toxic if it is so potent?" Extensive testing done at independent laboratories and universities around the world has proven the concentrate to be safe for human consumption. It is effective against pathogens because it belongs to a family of compounds known as quaternary compounds. This family is best known for benzylkonium chloride and benzylthonium chloride as well as the infamous Quaternium group, a very toxic antimicrobial preservative used in the cosmetics industry. While Grapefruit Extract is molecularly similar to these compounds, there are some profound differences in structure and function. The extract has tested effective against hundreds of bacteria and fungi, and even some viruses. Studies done to date indicate that there is little danger in either short-term or long-term internal use."What is the pH of this product?" The concentrate is about a 2.2, very acidic. This is why we recommend that you dilute it before use. We do not know if the product becomes alkaline when ingested the way orange juice and other citrus foods do."Is this product safe for use with children?" Yes. The extract is frequently used in pediatric medicine in applications to treat conditions such as diaper rash, ear infections, abrasions, etc. Common sense will indicate using a very dilute solution on an infant."What about using it for my pets?" Since the concentrate is safe for consumption, it is well suited for animal uses. The extract can be added to the animal’s water or food, and it can be diluted and applied topically to help heal infections of the skin. It is also useful as an ear wash and will help rid the animal of ear mites in mild cases.& Review this product	USD9.99	Visit Store »

Alternative HealthandHerbs Dong Quai Root Powder ( Angelica Sinensis ) 4 Oz Alternative HealthandHerbs Dong Quai root, referred to as the female ginseng, is rich in vitamins and minerals and is one of the most widely used herbs in traditional Chinese medicine. It is effective for female disorders such as menstrual disturbances, PMS and hot flashes due to its anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antiseptic, bactericidal and vasodilative effects. The herb is also used to regulate menstrual cycles, relieve menstrual cramps and alleviate symptoms related to PMS. 'Herbal Tonic Therapies,' Daniel B. Mowrey, Ph.D: 'Next to Panax ginseng, the root of dong quai is undoubtedly the most honored and respected herb in China, and is quickly gaining an equal reputation among users in the rest of the world.. Dong quai is used medicinally as a tonic, cardiotonic, respiratory tonic and liver tonic. It is used to promote circulation, to regulate the menstrual cycle and stop discomforts of menstruation. That means it's good for PMS. In Western herbal terms, it is used for dysmenorrhea (painful menstruation), metrorrhagia (too much menstruation) and amenorrhea (too little, or no, menstruation). Dong quai is also often recommended during pregnancy to ease delivery, reduce pain and discomfort and eliminate complications as much as possible. Most of the actions of dong quai depend on the presence of coumarins, phytosterols, polysaccharides, and flavonoids.' 'Dong quai contains estrogenic substances that may exert some regulating effect on estrogen levels and on estrogenic biological mechanisms. They seem to enhance estrogenic effects when estrogen levels are too low, and compete when levels are too high. This would be in keeping with the idea of a menstrual tonic. It is doubtful if dong quai has any direct estrogenic effects.' 'Substantial pharmacological research has validated these properties in dong quai. Anticramping, hypotensive, tonic, antiasthmatic, analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antiarthritic properties in the root have all been demonstrated by basic research. It has also been shown to be effective against several strains of microorganisms, especially fungi such as Candida albicans, the primary causative agent in vaginal yeast infections. This constellation of properties would help explain the plant's sometimes dramatic effect on the PMS symptoms.' Review this product	USD11.99	Visit Store »
