Extractions: What is CAM What does it mean to be evidence based? These, and many other questions were discussed at an MLA Continuing Education course I attended at the MCMLA/SDLA meeting in October. The course was taught by Stephanie Weldon, NN/LM MCR Consumer Health Liaison, Univ. of Colorado Health Sciences Library In her course description she included these facts. In 1997, the total visits to Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) providers (629M) exceeded total visits to all primary care physicians (386M). Total out of pocket expenditures for CAM therapies were conservatively estimated at $27B. (JAMA 1998; 280:1569-75). The statistics cited suggest that your patrons may be interested in CAM therapies. This session will provide you with an evidenced based approach to evaluating CAM literature. Information on herbal resources and their efficacy will be discussed. We will also look at the literature and resources which will help us answer our patron's questions. Come prepared for a lively discussion on CAM resources and methods for their evaluation.

Extractions: add to my files From The December 2001 Issue of Nutrition Science News These plant pigments are more than coloring agents for fruit juices, wine, and other beverages. They also contain an array of health-promoting benefits. By Marilyn Sterling, R.D. Eaten in large amounts by primitive humans, anthocyanins are antioxidant flavonoids that protect many body systems. They have some of the strongest physiological effects of any plant compounds, and they are also things of beauty: anthocyanins provide pigment for pansies, petunias, and plums. (Anthocyanins are a separate class of flavonoids from proanthocyanidins , discussed in NSN Anthocyanins are the active component in several herbal folk medicines such as bilberry ( Vaccinium myrtillus ), which was used in the 12th century to induce menstruation and during World War II to improve British pilots' night vision. Scientists are now discovering how such anthocyanins work and are beginning to appreciate their health benefits. Anthocyanins link with sugar molecules to form anthocyanins; besides chlorophyll, anthocyanins are probably the most important group of visible plant pigments. Anthocyanins, a flavonoid category, were found in one study to have the strongest antioxidizing power of 150 flavonoids.

Growing our own food is time consuming yet a very rewarding experience.

Extractions: The Revolutionary Antioxidant 90 Capsules We've all heard about antioxidants. Antioxidant is a classification of several vitamin-rich organic substances, including bioflavonoids, phytonutrients, and the carotenoids that add color to fruits and vegetables. At the molecular and cellular levels, antioxidants deactive free radicals, which are damaged molecules that seek to repair themselves by stealing materials from our body's healthy cells. Free radicals are the natural by-products of many processes within and among cells, and they are also created by exposure to various environmental factors - such as air pollution, pesticides, food additives, and radiation - and the effects of aging, stress and illness. We all need a nutritional shield and defense against the hazards of everyday living. Free radicals are believed to play a role in many different health problems. Free radicals can cause damage to cell walls, certain cell structures, and genetic material within cells. Over time, this damage can become irreversible. Unfortunatley, studies indicate most adults don't consume recommended amounts of antioxidant nutrients, especially as they become older. While there's no substitution for eating fresh fruits and vegetables, many people regard antioxidant supplements as health insurance.

Extractions: wissenschaftlichen Arbeiten etc. finden Sie weiter unten) Shiitake wird in Asien seit Alters her als schmackhafte Spezialität geschätzt und inzwischen auch in Europa und den USA sehr teuer als Delikatesse gehandelt. Der Pilz ist ein hervorragender Lieferant von essentiellen Aminosäuren*, Vitaminen, Spurenelementen und vielen anderen biologisch wertvollen Substanzen. *Essentielle Aminosäuren sind Eiweißbestandteile, die der Körper nicht selbst herstellen kann und daher auf deren Zufuhr von außen angewiesen ist. Der Shiitakepilz hat in ganz Asien und besonders in China ein traditionell hohes Ansehen. In Japan sollen dem Pilz erhebliche immunaktive Eigenschaften zugesprochen werden. Im weiteren wird ihm nachgesagt, daß er hungerlindernd wirken soll und gegen erhöhtes Cholesterin und Arteriosklerose vorbeugen könnte. Neuere Forschungen, auch außerhalb Asiens, lassen diese Annahmen der traditionellen asiatischen Volksmedizin immer wahrscheinlicher werden. Die wissenschaftliche Literatur über den Shiitakepilz ist mittlerweile sehr umfangreich (siehe weiter unten)
