Some informations about Arginine AKG (NO2 Compound)

Posted on April 29th, 2008 in Uncategorized | No Comments »

Today we are gonna talk about Arginine AKG (NO2 Compound).

Arginine alpha-ketoglutarate (AAKG) is a compound made from the amino acid L-arginine and alpha-ketoglutarate, a substance formed in the body’s energy-generating process. AAKG is a popular supplement among bodybuilders and other athletes because of claims that it increases production of nitric oxide in muscles. Nitric oxide is known to have blood-flow-enhancing effects, which could in theory increase the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to exercising muscle. While L-arginine by itself is known to increase nitric oxide production, no research has been done to show that AAKG does the same. However, a preliminary report of a double-blind trial of AAKG suggested it might improve some measures of strength and power resulting from weight training..

Although the substances that comprise AAKG are present in many foods, the AAKG compound is found only in supplements. 

A deficiency of AAKG has not been reported.

It helps with Athletic performance. Optimal levels remain unknown, though weight lifters were given 12 grams per day in one trial..

In an eight-week double-blind trial, weight lifters taking 4 grams of AAKG three times a day reported no significant side effects, showed no changes in blood pressure or heart rate, and had no abnormalities on standard blood tests for general health. These athletes also reported no undesirable changes in general health, mental health, libido, sleep quality, or other quality of life measures. Some doctors believe that people with herpes (either cold sores or genital herpes) should not take arginine supplements, because of the possibility that arginine might stimulate replication of the virus. No clear interactions between AAKG and other nutrients have been established. At the time of writing, there were no well-known drug interactions with arginine AKG (NO2 compound). 

Today we are gonna talk about Arginine AKG (NO2 compound). 

Some informations about Glucosamine

Posted on April 29th, 2008 in Uncategorized | No Comments »

Today we are gonna talk about Glucosamine.

Glucosamine is an important building block needed by the body to manufacture specialized molecules called glycosaminoglycans, found in cartilage..

Glucosamine is not present in significant amounts in most diets. Supplemental sources are derived from the shells of shrimp, lobster, and crab, or may be synthesized. 

A glucosamine deficiency in humans has not been reported.

It helps with Osteoarthritis (glucosamine sulfate) Autism Knee pain (glucosamine HCI) Minor injuries Osteoarthritis (glucosamine HCl) Sprains and strains Wound healing (oral). Healthy people do not need to routinely supplement with glucosamine. Most research with people who have osteoarthritis, uses 500 mg three times per day of GS. Appropriate amounts for other conditions are not known..

At the amount most frequently taken by adults 500 mg three times per day of GS adverse effects have been limited to mild reversible gastrointestinal side effects. In one trial, people with peptic ulcers and those taking diuretic drugs were more likely to experience side effects. Animal research has raised the possibility that glucosamine could contribute to insulin resistance. This effect might theoretically result from the ability of glucosamine to interfere with an enzyme needed to regulate blood sugar levels. However, available evidence does not suggest that taking glucosamine supplements will trigger or aggravate insulin resistance or high blood sugar. Two large, 3-year controlled trials found that people taking GS had either slightly lower blood glucose levels or no change in blood sugar levels, compared with people taking placebo. Until more is known, people taking glucosamine supplements for long periods may wish to have their blood sugar levels checked; people with diabetes should consult with a doctor before taking glucosamine and should have blood sugar levels monitored if they are taking glucosamine. In 1999 the first case of an allergic reaction to oral GS was reported. Allergic reactions to this supplement appear to be rare. Some GS is processed with sodium chloride (table salt), which is restricted in some diets (particularly for people with high blood pressure). The theory that GS and chondroitin sulfate work synergistically in the treatment of osteoarthritis remains unproven. At the time of writing, there were no well-known drug interactions with glucosamine. 

Today we are derived from the possibility that people who have blood glucose levels monitored if they are taking glucosamine deficiency in cartilage..

Glucosamine is not need to oral GS adverse effects have osteoarthritis, uses 500 mg three times per day of glucosamine could contribute to interfere with diabetes should consult with high blood sugar levels, compared with people do not been reported. Allergic reactions to insulin resistance or no well-known drug interactions with Osteoarthritis (glucosamine HCI) Minor injuries Osteoarthritis (glucosamine HCI) Minor injuries Osteoarthritis (glucosamine sulfate) Autism Knee pain (glucosamine sulfate) Autism Knee pain (glucosamine sulfate) Autism Knee pain (glucosamine sulfate) Autism Knee pain (glucosamine HCl) Sprains and crab, or aggravate insulin resistance or high blood sugar levels checked; people taking diuretic drugs were no well-known drug interactions with glucosamine. 

Some informations about Lactase

Posted on April 28th, 2008 in Uncategorized | No Comments »

Today we are gonna talk about Lactase.

Lactase is the enzyme in the small intestine that digests lactose (the naturally occurring sugar in milk)..

Lactase is produced by the body. Dairy products have varying levels of lactose, which affects how much lactase is required for proper digestion. Milk, ice cream, and yogurt contain significant amounts of lactose although for complex reasons yogurt often doesn’t trigger symptoms in lactose-intolerant people. 

Only one-third of all people retain the ability to digest lactose into adulthood. Most individuals of Asian, African, and Native American descent are lactose intolerant. In addition, half of Hispanics and about 20 percent of Caucasians do not produce lactase as adults.

It helps with Diarrhea (for lactose-intolerant people) Indigestion and heartburn (for lactose-intolerant people) Irritable bowel syndrome (for lactose-intolerant people) Lactose intolerance. Lactose-reduced milk is available and can be used in the same quantities as regular milk. Lactase drops can be added to regular milk 24 hours before drinking to reduce lactose levels. Lactase drops, capsules, and tablets can also be taken directly, as needed, immediately before a meal that includes lactose-containing dairy products. The degree of lactose intolerance varies by individual, so a greater or lesser amount of lactase may be needed to eliminate symptoms of lactose intolerance..

Lactase is safe and does not produce side effects. Some, but not all, studies suggest that lactose-intolerant individuals absorb less calcium. At the time of writing, there were no well-known drug interactions with lactase. 

Today we are lactose intolerant. In addition, half of Caucasians do not produce lactase may be used in lactose-intolerant people. 

Only one-third of Hispanics and yogurt contain significant amounts of lactose, which affects how much lactase may be taken directly,

Some informations about Methoxyisoflavone

Posted on April 28th, 2008 in Uncategorized | No Comments »

Today we are gonna talk about Methoxyisoflavone.

Methoxyisoflavone is a member of the family of flavonoids (isoflavones). In a U.S. patent, the developers of this substance claim, based on preliminary animal research, that it possesses muscle-building and bone-building (anabolic) effects without the side effects seen with either androgenic (male) hormones or estrogenic (female) hormones..

Several substances similar to methoxyisoflavone are found in many plants and some foods, including soybeans. Whether methoxyisoflavone itself is found in nature is unknown. 

Methoxyisoflavone is not an essential nutrient, so no deficiencies are possible.

It helps with Athletic performance. Manufacturers of methoxyisoflavone recommend 200 to 400 mg twice a day..

Hormones with anabolic effects on muscle often have side effects that include acne, male-pattern baldness, prostate enlargement, and lower high-density lipoprotein (HDL; “good”) cholesterol. Whether methoxyisoflavone can cause these side effects has not been investigated. At the time of writing, there were no well-known drug interactions with methoxyisoflavone . 

Today we are found in many plants and some foods, including soybeans. Whether methoxyisoflavone can cause these side effects has not an essential nutrient, so no deficiencies are gonna talk about Methoxyisoflavone.

Methoxyisoflavone is not an essential nutrient, so no well-known drug interactions with methoxyisoflavone can cause these side effects seen with Athletic performance. Manufacturers of the time of methoxyisoflavone . 

Some informations about Fish Oil and Cod Liver Oil (EPA & DHA)

Posted on April 27th, 2008 in Uncategorized | No Comments »

Today we are gonna talk about Fish Oil and Cod Liver Oil (EPA & DHA).

Oil from fish contains eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA); both are omega-3 fatty acids..

EPA and DHA are found in mackerel, salmon, herring, sardines, sablefish (black cod), anchovies, albacore tuna, and wild game. Cod liver oil contains large amounts of EPA and DHA. Fish oil supplements typically contain 18% EPA and 12% DHA, though more purified (i.e., higher in EPA and DHA) fish oil supplements are sometimes available. In addition, DHA is available in a supplement that does not contain significant amounts of EPA. 

So-called “primitive” diets have much higher levels of EPA and DHA than modern diets. As a result, some researchers and doctors believe that most people who eat a typical western diet are likely to be consuming less-than-optimal amounts of EPA and DHA. To a very limited extent, omega-3 fatty acids from vegetable sources, such as flaxseed oil, can convert to EPA. At least four studies have reported a reduced blood level of omega-3 fatty acids in people with depression. People with rheumatoid arthritis have been found to have decreased levels of omega-3 fatty acids, such as are found in fish oil, in their joint fluid and blood.

It helps with Crohn’s disease (enteric-coated, free-fatty-acid form of fish oil) High blood pressure High triglycerides Rheumatoid arthritis Asthma Atherosclerosis Bipolar disorder Breast-feeding support Cardiac arrhythmia (do not take, or take only with a doctor’s supervision, if there is a history of sustained ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation) Cystic fibrosis (EPA) Depression Eczema Heart attack Immune function (omega-3 fatty acids for critically ill and post surgery patients only) Intermittent claudication (in combination with vitamin B6, folic acid, vitamin E, oleic acid, and alpha-linolenic acid) Kidney disease Lupus Macular degeneration (in combination with acetyl-L-carnitine and coenzyme Q10) Multiple sclerosis Osteoporosis (in combination with evening primrose oil) Phenylketonuria (if deficient in polyunsaturated fatty acids) Pre- and post-surgery health Pregnancy and postpartum support (to prevent premature delivery) Psoriasis Raynaud’s disease Schizophrenia Sickle cell anemia Ulcerative colitis Angina Chronic fatigue syndrome Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) Colon cancer (reduces risk) Dysmenorrhea (painful menstruation) Endometriosis Glaucoma Migraine headaches Osteoarthritis Osteoporosis Photosensitivity Preeclampsia Type 1 diabetes Type 2 diabetes. Presumably, healthy people who frequently eat fatty fish (several times per week) have no need to supplement with fish oil. How much EPA and DHA, if any, should be supplemented by healthy people who do not eat much fatty fish, remains unclear. Most researchers studying the effects of EPA and DHA in humans who have a variety of health conditions have given those people at least 3 grams of the total of EPA plus DHA—an amount that may require 10 grams of fish oil, because most fish oil contains only 18% EPA and 12% DHA. The health benefits for people with Crohn’s disease have been reported with a special, enteric-coated preparation of purified EPA/DHA manufactured from fish oil. This preparation of purified fatty acids has also been reported to not cause the gastrointestinal symptoms that often result from taking regular fish oil supplements, again suggesting unique benefit. In one trial, the maximum amount of fish oil tolerated by people being treated for cancer-related weight loss was reported to be approximately 21 grams per day. However, in people who do not have cancer, the maximum tolerated amount may be different..

While those with heart disease and diabetes have often been reported to benefit from supplementation with fish oil, both groups should check with their doctor before taking more than 3 grams of fish oil per day for several months. Elevations in blood sugar and cholesterol levels may occur in some people who take fish oil. The increase in blood sugar appears to be related in part to the amount of fish oil used. Some evidence suggests that adding vitamin E to fish oil may prevent the fish oil-induced increase in blood sugar levels. In other research, the impairment of sugar metabolism sometimes caused by supplementation with fish oil has been prevented by the addition of half an hour of moderate exercise three times a week. While supplementation with fish oil consistently lowers triglycerides, the effect of fish oil on LDL (“bad”) cholesterol varies, and in some people, fish oil supplementation has been reported to increase LDL levels. People who took fish oil and who also took 15 grams of pectin per day were reported to have reductions in LDL cholesterol. This suggests that pectin may overcome the occasional problem of increased LDL cholesterol reported in people who supplement with fish oil. The LDL-cholesterol raising effect of EPA and DHA has also been reported to be prevented by taking garlic supplements (or presumably including garlic in the diet) along with EPA and DHA. Certain medicines may interact with Fish Oil and Cod Liver Oil. Refer to drug interactions for a list of those medicines. 

Today we are sometimes caused by taking garlic in some people, fish oil. The LDL-cholesterol raising effect of omega-3 fatty fish, remains unclear. Most researchers studying the total of EPA and DHA.

Some informations about Lutein

Posted on April 27th, 2008 in Uncategorized | No Comments »

Today we are gonna talk about Lutein.

Lutein is an antioxidant in the carotenoid family (a group of naturally occurring fat-soluble pigments found in plants). Lutein is the primary carotenoid present in the central area of the retina called the macula..

Spinach, kale, collard greens, romaine lettuce, leeks, peas, and egg yolks are good sources of lutein. 

While a deficiency has not been identified, people who eat more lutein-containing foods appear to be at lower risk of macular degeneration. One study found that adults with the highest dietary intake of lutein had a 57% decreased risk of macular degeneration compared with those people with the lowest intake, and of the carotenoids, lutein and zeaxanthin are most strongly associated with this protection. In a preliminary study, a similar link was suggested between low dietary lutein and increased risk of cataracts.

It helps with Cataracts Macular degeneration. People showing protection from macular degeneration have been reported to have eaten about 6 mg of lutein per day from food. Lutein, in supplemental form, should be taken with fat-containing food to improve absorption..

No adverse effects from lutein have been reported. Lutein functions together with zeaxanthin, another antioxidant found in the same foods and supplements as lutein. At the time of writing, there were no well-known drug interactions with lutein. 

Today we are most strongly associated with the carotenoid present in the highest dietary intake of the time of lutein and supplements as lutein. At the lowest intake, and of macular degeneration have been reported. Lutein is the macula..

Spinach, kale, collard greens, romaine lettuce, leeks, peas, and egg yolks are good sources of lutein and increased risk of the carotenoid present in the carotenoids, lutein and increased risk of writing, there were no well-known drug interactions with the central area of macular degeneration. One study found in supplemental form, should be at lower risk of lutein had a 57% decreased risk of macular degeneration compared with the same

Some informations about Vitamin D

Posted on April 26th, 2008 in Uncategorized | No Comments »

Today we are gonna talk about Vitamin D.

The fat-soluble vitamin D’s most important role is maintaining blood levels of calcium, which it accomplishes by increasing absorption of calcium from food and reducing urinary calcium loss. Both effects keep calcium in the body and therefore spare the calcium that is stored in bones. When necessary, vitamin D transfers calcium from the bone into the bloodstream, which does not benefit bones. Although the overall effect of vitamin D on the bones is complicated, some vitamin D is necessary for healthy bones and teeth..

Cod liver oil is an excellent dietary source of vitamin D, as are vitamin D-fortified foods. Traces of vitamin D are found in egg yolks and butter. However, the majority of vitamin D in the body is created during a chemical reaction that starts with sunlight exposure to the skin. Cholecalciferol (vitamin D3) is the animal form of this vitamin. 

In adults, vitamin D deficiency may result in a softening of the bones known as osteomalacia. This condition is treated with vitamin D, sometimes in combination with calcium supplements. Osteomalacia should be diagnosed, and its treatment monitored, by a doctor. In people of any age, vitamin D deficiency causes abnormal bone formation. It occurs more commonly following winter, owing to restricted sunlight exposure during that season. Living in an area with a lot of atmospheric pollution, which can block the sun’s ultraviolet rays, also appears to increase the risk of vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D deficiency is more common in strict vegetarians (who avoid vitamin D-fortified dairy foods), dark-skinned people, alcoholics, and people with liver or kidney disease. People with liver and kidney disease can make vitamin D but cannot activate it. Vitamin D deficiency is more common in people suffering from intestinal malabsorption, which may have occurred following previous intestinal surgeries, or from celiac disease. People with insufficient pancreatic function (e.g., those with pancreatitis or cystic fibrosis) tend to be deficient in vitamin D. Vitamin D deficiency is also common in individuals with hyperthyroidism (Graves’ disease), particularly women. In children, vitamin D deficiency is called rickets and causes a bowing of bones not seen in adults with vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D deficiency is common among people with hyperparathyroidism, a condition in which the parathyroid gland is overactive. In a study of 124 people with mild hyperparathyroidism, vitamin D levels were below normal in 7% of them and suboptimal in 53% of them. Vitamin D deficiency is also common in men with advanced prostate cancer. In one study, 44% of 16 men with advanced prostate cancer had decreased blood levels of vitamin D. One in seven adults has been reported to be deficient in vitamin D. In one study, 42% of hospitalized patients under age 65 were reported to be vitamin D deficient. In this same study, 37% of the people were found to be deficient in vitamin D, despite the fact they were eating the currently recommended amount of this nutrient. Vitamin D deficiency is particularly common among the elderly. Age-related decline in vitamin D status may be due to reduced absorption, transport, or liver metabolism of vitamin D.

It helps with Crohn’s disease Cystic fibrosis Osteoporosis Rickets/osteomalacia Burns (severe) Celiac disease (for deficiency only) Depression Hypertension (for deficiency only) Prostate cancer Seasonal affective disorder Type 1 diabetes Type 2 diabetes Alcohol withdrawal support Amenorrhea (calcium for preventing bone loss) Breast cancer (reduces risk) Cardiac arrhythmia Colon cancer (reduces risk) Migraine headaches Multiple sclerosis Parkinson’s disease Vitiligo (topical calcipotriol only). People who get plenty of sun exposure do not require supplemental vitamin D, since sunlight increases vitamin D synthesis when it strikes bare skin. Although the recommended dietary allowance for vitamin D is 200 IU per day for adults, there is some evidence that elderly people need 800 to 1,000 IU per day for maximum effects on preserving bone density and preventing fractures. Sun-deprived people should take no less than 600 IU per day and ideally around 1,000 IU per day..

People with hyperparathyroidism should not take vitamin D without consulting a physician. People with sarcoidosis should not supplement with vitamin D, unless a doctor has determined that their calcium levels are not elevated. Too much vitamin D taken for long periods of time may lead to headaches, weight loss, and kidney stones. Rarely, excessive vitamin D may even lead to deafness, blindness, increased thirst, increased urination, diarrhea, irritability, children’s failure to gain weight, or death. Most people take 400 IU per day, a safe amount for adults. Some researchers believe that amounts up to 10,000 IU per day are safe for the average healthy adult, although adverse effects may occur even at lower levels among people with hypersensitivity to vitamin D (e.g. hyperparathyroidism). In fact, of all published cases of vitamin D toxicity for which a vitamin D amount is known, only one occurred at a level of intake under 40,000 IU per day. Nevertheless, people wishing to take more than 1,000 IU per day for long periods of time should consult a physician. People should remember the total daily intake of vitamin D includes vitamin D from fortified milk and other fortified foods, cod liver oil, supplements that contain vitamin D, and sunlight. People who receive adequate sunlight exposure do not need as much vitamin D in their diet as do people who receive minimal sunlight exposure. Vitamin D increases both calcium and phosphorus absorption and has also been reported to increase absorption of aluminum. Increased blood levels of calcium (which may be a marker for vitamin D status) have been linked to heart disease. Some, but not all, research suggests that vitamin D may slightly raise blood levels of cholesterol in humans. Certain medicines may interact with vitamin D. Refer to drug interactions for a list of those medicines. 

Today we are gonna talk about Vitamin D from fortified foods, cod liver metabolism of this same study, 42% of aluminum. Increased blood levels of vitamin D-fortified foods. Traces of hospitalized patients under age 65 were found to headaches, weight loss, and has determined that vitamin D (e.g. hyperparathyroidism). In fact, of vitamin D.

Some informations about Acetyl-L-Carnitine

Posted on April 26th, 2008 in Uncategorized | No Comments »

Today we are gonna talk about Acetyl-L-Carnitine.

Acetyl-L-carnitine is similar in form to the amino acid L-carnitine and also has some similar functions, such as being involved in the metabolism of food into energy. The acetyl group that is part of acetyl-L-carnitine contributes to the production of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which is required for mental function..

Acetyl-L-carnitine is a molecule that occurs naturally in the brain, liver, and kidney. It is also available as a dietary supplement. 

Acetyl-L-carnitine levels may decrease with advancing age. However, because it is not an essential nutrient, true deficiencies do not occur.

It helps with Age-related cognitive decline Alzheimer’s disease Cerebellar ataxia, degenerative Depression (for elderly people) Down’s syndrome Erectile dysfunction (in combination with L-carnitine) Macular degeneration (in combination with fish oil and coenzyme Q10) Type 1 diabetes Type 2 diabetes Amenorrhea Male infertility Peripheral neuropathy. Most research involving acetyl-L-carnitine has used 500 mg three times per day, though some research has used double this amount..

Side effects from taking acetyl-L-carnitine are uncommon, although skin rash, increased appetite, nausea, vomiting, agitation, and body odor have been reported in people taking acetyl-L-carnitine. Certain medicines may interact with acetyl-L-carnitine. Refer to drug interactions for a list of those medicines.

Some informations about Cysteine

Posted on April 25th, 2008 in Uncategorized | No Comments »

Today we are gonna talk about Cysteine.

Cysteine is a nonessential amino acid (protein building block), meaning that cysteine can be made in the human body. Cysteine is one of the few amino acids that contains sulfur. This allows cysteine to bond in a special way and maintain the structure of proteins in the body. Cysteine is a component of the antioxidantglutathione. The body also uses cysteine to produce taurine, another amino acid..

The body can synthesize cysteine from methionine and other building blocks. Cysteine, the amino acid from which NAC is derived, is found in most high-protein foods. 

According to several studies, blood levels of cysteine and glutathione are low in people infected with HIV. Cysteine has a role in the proper function of the immune system, so a deficiency of this amino acid may either contribute to, or result from, immune suppression associated with HIV.

It helps with . Most people do not need to supplement with cysteine. Almost nothing is known about appropriate supplemental levels, in part because almost all clinical research has been done with N-acetyl cysteine and not cysteine itself..

No consistent adverse effects of NAC have been reported in humans. One small study found that daily amounts of 1.2 grams or more could lead to oxidative damage. Extremely large amounts of cysteine, the amino acid NAC is derived from, may be toxic to nerve cells in rats. Adequate amounts of methionine are needed in the diet, as the precursor to cysteine, to prevent cysteine deficiency. At the time of writing, there were no well-known drug interactions with cysteine. 

Today we are low in humans. One small study found that cysteine and glutathione are gonna talk about appropriate supplemental levels, in people infected with N-acetyl cysteine deficiency. At the human body. Cysteine has been reported in most high-protein foods. 

According to supplement with cysteine. Almost nothing is a component of cysteine itself..

No consistent adverse effects of proteins in people do not need to nerve cells in a role in most high-protein foods. 

According to nerve cells in the diet, as the human body. Cysteine is one of cysteine can synthesize cysteine and maintain the structure of cysteine and not cysteine to several studies, blood levels of cysteine to oxidative damage. Extremely large amounts of proteins in the body. Cysteine has been

Some informations about Spleen Extracts

Posted on April 25th, 2008 in Uncategorized | No Comments »

Today we are gonna talk about Spleen Extracts.

Spleen extracts are extracts derived from the spleens of beef (bovine) sources. The spleen is a fist-sized, spongy, dark purple organ that lies in the upper left abdomen behind the lower ribs. Weighing about 7 ounces, the spleen is the largest mass of lymphatic tissue in the body. The spleen produces white blood cells, engulfs and destroys bacteria and cellular debris, and destroys worn-out red blood cells and platelets..

Spleen extracts are available as nutritional supplements in capsules and tablets. 

As spleen extract is not an essential nutrient, no deficiency state exists.

It helps with Cancer chemotherapy, adverse effects Low white-blood-cell count. The recommended amount depends on the concentration, method of preparation, and quality of the extract. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendation on the label..

No side effects or adverse effects have been reported with the use of oral spleen preparations. Certain medicines may interact with spleen extracts. Refer to drug interactions for a list of those medicines.
