Who might benefit from this herbal supplement?
• Those suffering an acute outbreak of genital herpes, cold
sores (oral herpes), or shingles (herpes zoster.)
While there is no cure for herpes, this formula will help to
quiet the attack and reduce the inflammation. The Ayurvedic
herb Neem is a very strong anti-bacterial and anti-viral that
limits the viral attack. Licorice and Turmeric are strong anti-
inflammatory herbs that reduce the outbreak. They limit
prostaglandin-induced inflammation. The anti-viral actions of
St. John’s Wort are being discovered and used for many viral
conditions. St. John’s Wort is also a nerve ending sedative,
which helps in pain. Since herpes lives in the nerve endings
and tends to erupt when under stress (stress hyper stimulates
the nerve endings), St. John’s Wort is of obvious value. St.
John’s Wort is calming under stress, is a nerve ending sedative
and has anti-viral implications.
Ingredients:
Phyto-Tech™ Herp Ease Formula contains: Neem Herb,
Licorice Root, St. John’s Wort Flowers Fresh, Turmeric Root
Fresh, Alcohol Pure Grain, Water Pure Deionized.

E
vidence suggests low iron levels are linked
to depression in the general population,
but there are no pregnancy studies. Here,
doctors reviewed the medical records of 142
women, aged 18 to 25, and beyond 20 weeks
pregnant when tested for ferritin, a biomarker
for iron stores.
Women deficient in iron had depression
scores 29 percent higher than those with
good iron levels, and these women were two-
and-a-half times more likely to develop
depression while pregnant. Doctors also
compared other health factors including
family history, lifestyle, physical activity, and
socioeconomic status, and found that iron
levels remained an independent factor in
developing depression while pregnant.

What is the acceptable dosage of iron
during pregnancy? Under normal
circumstances, iron is safe for pregnant and
breast-feeding women with adequate iron
stores when used in doses below the tolerable
upper intake level (UL) of 45 mg per day of
elemental iron. Check your multivitamin for
iron content, as many products contain little
or no iron. If you have problems tolerating
iron supplements, talk to the pharmacists or
nutritionists at Willner Chemists.

P
olycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a
metabolic and reproductive condition that
includes irregular periods and ovulation, a
higher level of male-androgenic-hormones,
unbalanced lipid profiles, and high blood
pressure.
In this study, 84 overweight or obese
women with PCOS, aged 20 to 38, took a
placebo or three 500 mg capsules of
cinnamon per day. After eight weeks, those
taking cinnamon saw triglyceride levels
decrease to 96.1 from 117.74 milligrams per
deciliter of blood (mg/dL) compared to
124.62 from 131.76 for placebo.
Levels of LDL, the "bad" cholesterol, also
significantly decreased for cinnamon while
not changing for placebo. HDL, the "good"
cholesterol, increased for cinnamon while
decreasing for placebo. Total antioxidant
capacity improved by 9 percent for
cinnamon, and a biomarker for oxidative
stress decreased 8 percent.
