Lobelia Extract:
Lobelia (Lobelia inflata), also known as Indian tobacco, contains a
substance (lobeline) that has some effects on the nervous system that are
similar to the effects of nicotine, and preliminary reports suggested that
pure lobeline or lobelia herb could be used to support smoking cessation.
Licorice Root Extract:
Licorice has a long and highly varied record of uses. It was and remains one
of the most important herbs in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Among its most
consistent and important uses are as a demulcent (soothing, coating agent)
in the digestive and urinary tracts, to help with coughs, to soothe sore
throats, and as a flavoring.
Passion Flower:
Passion flower was used to treat nervous restlessness and gastrointestinal
spasms. In short, the effects of passion flower were believed to be
primarily on the nervous system, particularly for anxiety due to mental
worry and overwork. The effectiveness of passion flower as a treatment for
anxiety has been confirmed in a double-blind study. In that study, 45 drops
per day of an extract of passion flower taken for four weeks was as
effective as 30 mg per day of oxazepam (Serax®), a medication used for
anxiety.
Coral Calcium:
Many medical doctors recommend calcium carbonate because it requires the
fewest pills to reach a given level of calcium and it is readily available
and inexpensive. For people concerned about cost and only willing to swallow
two to three calcium pills per day, calcium carbonate is a sensible choice.
Ginger Extract:
Traditional Chinese Medicine has recommended ginger for over 2,500 years. It
is used for abdominal bloating, coughing, vomiting, diarrhea, and
rheumatism.
Linden Flowers:
The major active constituents in linden are flavonoids, glycosides, and
possibly a volatile oil. One study found that a complex mixture of
compounds, primarily flavonoids, reduced anxiety in mice.
Mullein Root:
Mullein leaves and flowers are classified in traditional herbal literature
as expectorants (promotes the discharge of mucus) and demulcents (soothes
irritated mucous membranes). Historically, mullein has been used by
herbalists as a remedy for the respiratory tract, particularly in cases of
irritating coughs with bronchial congestion. Some herbal texts extend the
therapeutic use to pneumonia and asthma.
Spearmint Leaves:
Spearmint Leaf has been used for culinary and medicinal purposes since the
time of the ancient Romans. It has been used as an anti-inflammatory and for
the prevention of gum disease, but Spearmint is most often used as a mild
digestive aid to combat indigestion and flatulence.
Hawthorne Berries:
The leaves, flowers, and berries of hawthorn contain a variety of
bioflavonoids that appear to be primarily responsible for the cardiac
actions of the plant. Flavonoids found in hawthorn include oligomeric
procyanidins (OPCs), vitexin, vitexin 4’-O-rhamnoside, quercetin, and
hyperoside. These compounds are often standardized in leaf and flower
extracts, which are widely used in Europe.
Wood Betony:
Native to Europe, wood betony is now planted in many parts of the world with
temperate climates. The primary portions of the plant that are used as
medicine are the leaves and flowers, though historically the root has also
been used. It was considered a calming remedy and was used for headaches as
well as some forms of neuralgia, including shingles.
Bioperine:
Bioperine® is the only product sourced out of piperine to obtain a patented
status for its ability to increase the bioavailability of nutritional
compounds. Secondly, it is the only source from piperine to have undergone
clinical studies in the U.S. to substantiate its safety and efficacy for
nutritional use.
