Properties: Traditionaly, this combination of herbs can be thought to exert the following properties: Adaptogen, Adrenal Tonic, Immuno Modulating, Mood Enhancing, Anti Depressant Indications: Adrenal Adaptogen Complex is a balancing adaptogenic formula indicated for those who are overworked, overstressed, and find themselves feeling tired, overwhelmed and burnt out most or all of the time. It is also helpful for those who haven’t hit the wall yet, but live fast paced, high stress lifestyles and want to avoid breakdown and burnout. Adrenal Adaptogen Complex will increase the body’s resistance to physical, mental, and environmental stress, and help to defend against diseases and disorders caused by overstress. The herbs used in the formula are highly adaptogenic and work synergistically to moderate the stress response, not by blocking it altogether but by balancing it out. In other words, they enable the body to respond more appropriately to stress without over exaggerating the response. This prevents adrenal overstimulation and protects the adrenals from breakdown and exhaustion. Adaptogens act positively on glucose metabolism as they stimulate the liver to convert glycogen to glucose, enhance entry of glucose into the cell, and enhance utilization of glucose within cells. Regular use of Adrenal Adaptogen Complex will help normalize stress hormone levels, lessening ones predisposition to stress, decrease over reactions during the stress response, and provide protection against the effects of long term stress. In addition, energy and vitality will be restored, and mood and emotional well being will improve. Eleuthero (Eleutherococcus senticosus) has been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine for thousands of years and is indicated for those with fatigue, physical weakness, compromised immunity, and poor work capacity and concentration. Pharmacologically, Eleuthero tonifies, displays anti stress activity, increases lymphocyte count, and has an immunomodulatory effect on the cellular immune system. Studies show that Eleuthero increases endurance, reduces the alarm phase of the stress response, prevents stress induced illness and disease, supports adrenal function, and enhances T cell activation and immune system function. Formerly known in the U.S. as Siberian Ginseng, Eleuthero is not a true ginseng, but it does belong to the same family of plants. Compared to true ginseng, Eleuthero is non heating and milder in its stimulatory effects. Ashwagandha is used preventively to avoid burnout and breakdown and restoratively to help strengthen those who are already mentally and/or physically depleted. It has positive effects on chronic fatigue syndrome, depression, debility, and recovery from wasting diseases. Ashwagandha is one of the most important herbs of Ayurveda and is known as “Ayurvedic” Ginseng. It is indicated for similar conditions as Ginseng, but it is not heating, Yang, or stimulating like Ginseng. Many scientific studies have been conducted that support Ashwagandha’s adaptogenic and anti stress activity. It’s been found to be effective at increasing physical endurance, preventing gastric ulcers brought on by stress, and reducing the rise of stress hormone levels in the blood. Ashwagandha also has cognitive effects and can increase intellect and memory. Several studies indicate it slows stops and reverses neuritic atrophy and synaptic loss, and thus has been used in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and Huntington’s. Ashwagandha also displays GABA mimetic, anxiolytic and anti depressant properties and can help stabilize mood in those with anxiety and depression. American Ginseng (Panax quinquefolius) is native to North America and was used in traditional indigenous medicine by tribes such as the Cherokee, Creek, Iroquois, Menominee, . . . continued on page 9 Important Notice: The information given here is designed to help you make informed decisions about your health, and the proper use of dietary supplements.

Product Reference Guide: Willner Chemists Phyto-Tech™ Herbal Supplements B eta alanine helps form the amino acid carnosine, which supports muscle endurance in high intensity exercise. In this study, 12 elite World Cup cyclists in training took a placebo or 20 grams of beta alanine per day for seven days. Before and after beta alanine, doctors measured muscle power under training loads in a 10 minute time trial. Compared to placebo, the beta alanine group saw a 6.21 percent increase in average power, a 2.16 percent increase in travel distance, and a 4.85 percent increase in total work, with no difference in cadence or rotations. Doctors said beta alanine usually takes several weeks to increase muscle carnosine, and this study proves short term, high dose beta alanine can increase carnosine more quickly, increasing high intensity cycling capacity and providing a competitive advantage to elite World Tour cyclists.

In this study, doctors asked 44 participants, average age 45, average body mass index score 33.4, to either add to their regular diets three whole Gala apples per day, or to avoid apples altogether. Participants also avoided polyphenol rich foods for two weeks prior to the study. After six weeks, compared to the non apple group, those eating apples saw inflammatory factors decline, including C reactive protein 12 percent; interleukin 6 12.4 percent; and LPS binding protein 20.7 percent. Antioxidant capacity also increased by 9.6 percent.
