"A stunning expose, which is surely a central thesis of chronic, unexplained and fatiguing illnesses; namely that of oxidative stress mechanisms." - Paul Cheney, M.D., Ph.D., legendary CFS researcher
The antioxidant capacity of Ecklonia cava extract (ECE) has been found to be many times stronger than green tea or other land-based polyphenols. Its peroxynitrite scavenging capacity, long half-life in the blood, and ability to pass through the blood brain barrier, explains much of its remarkable beneficial effects. More...
Nanomolecular chitosan (NC) is known as a broad spectrum agent for detoxification. In contrast to its cousin, large polymer chitosan, NC is absorbed into the bloodstream and may be active in binding fat-soluble neurotoxins. A clinical report by Dr. Steve Hines, N.D. and background material is presented. More...
Super Food/Super Tonic from Japan. Akira Matsunaga, M.D., Ph.D., is the first doctor in Japan to use chitin-chitosan in clinical practice. Here, we summarize some of the highlights of his in-depth book: Chitosan, The Ultimate Health Builder. More...
