tioners combine lower doses of California poppy with other nervines
to relieve anxiety. Researchers studied a combination of California
poppy, hawthorn flower (Crataegus laevigata), and magnesium in
264 people with mild to moderate anxiety. Those taking the herb
mixture had significantly improved anxiety symptoms after three
months compared to those taking placebo. Hawthorn is primarily
used for heart conditions and is not usually considered a nervine.
However, it may help alleviate anxiety symptoms such as heart pal-
pitations and increased blood pressure. “

James Duke, Ph.D., in his book The Green Pharmacy, makes the
following comment on Black walnut (Juglans nigra.) “Kathi Keville,
author of The Illustrated Herb Encyclopedia and Herbs for Health
and Healing, a California Heralist whom I admire, recounts one
impressive study showeing that the fresh husk of the black walnut
destroyed candida better than a commonly prescribed antifungal
drug . . .”
“Recurrent or chronic infections, including chronic candidiasis, are
characterized by a depressed immune system. A repetitive cycle
makes it difficult to overcome chronic candidiasis: a compromised
immune system leads to infection, and infection leads to damage to
the immune system, further weakining resistance.” (Murray and
Pizzorno, Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine)
Enhanced immune system function may be the most important
component of treating this condition.

about a potential association between calci-
um supplement use and a small increase in
risk for adverse cardiovascular events.
However, a number of issues with the meta-
analysis and accompanying studies—such as
exclusion of the majority of RCTs which indi-
cate calcium has no effect on the cardiovas-
cular system; large reliance on unpublished
data; failure to appropriately ascertain car-
diovascular events; and a lack of information
on known cardiovascular risk determinants—
warranted a complete examination of the sci-
entific literature.
The CRN Foundation assembled the expert
panel to study the findings of this analysis in
context with the larger body of scientific
research on calcium.
“In light of our safety findings combined
with the well-documented benefits of calci-
um, we urge physicians to continue recom-
mending calcium supplements to their
patients as appropriate, as our review of the
scientific literature further reinforces the valu-
able role of calcium in helping consumers
maintain bone health,” said the Mayo
Clinic’s Dr. Kopecky. “Building and maintain-
ing calcium is vital for all age groups—young
children to adolescents to adults and the eld-
erly must obtain adequate amounts of calci-
um, either through diet or supplementation.
For those who are unsure if they need to
supplement their diets with additional calci-
um, make sure to discuss your current nutri-
tional picture with your physician.”
Supporting the expert panel’s conclusion is
the recent “Framingham Study,” published
online in the Nov. 7 American Journal of
Clinical Nutrition by Elizabeth Samelson,
Ph.D., et al., which also looked at the associ-
ation of calcium and coronary artery calcifi-
cation and found that “…calcium intake from
diet and supplements appeared to neither
increase nor decrease vascu-
lar calcification, which is a
measure of cardiovascular
risk…The use of calcium
supplements is important for
many older adults to ensure
adequate intake for bone
health.”1
The Institute of Medicine
currently suggests women
ages 19 through 50 and men
up to 71 obtain a
Recommended Dietary
Allowance (RDA) of 1,000
milligrams calcium daily;
women over 50 and men 71
and older should obtain
1,200 milligrams daily to
ensure they are meeting
their daily needs for strong,
healthy bones. Calcium is
popular among U.S. consumers, and accord-
ing to CRN’s most recent survey of U.S.
adults, 17 percent indicate they take a calci-
um supplement.

The Good News About
Multivitamins
There was good news about nutritional
supplements recently. Very good news. A
good study–a very good study–showed
remarkable benefit associated with the use of
multivitamin supplements. In short, this new
study indicates that men who took a modest
potency multivitamin multimineral supple-
ment reduced their risk of cancer, overall, by
eight percent.
An overall eight percent reduction in can-
cer is not something to take lightly. Especially
when it merely involves taking a basic multi-
vitamin supplement. What a large benefit
from so small an effort. Why wouldn’t every-
body support the idea of taking, at least, a
basic multivitamin multimineral supplement
every day?
You would think that common sense alone
would support the idea. We know how
important vitamins and minerals are to our
health. We know that a deficiency of one or
more of these vital nutrients can lead to life-
threatening illness. We know that, for many
reasons, many of us do not eat as nutritious a
diet as we should. So why would anybody
argue against a daily multivitamin multimin-
eral supplement? Why would we even need
to “prove” the value of daily supplementa-
tion?
