An Amino Acid Troubled with anxiety, irritability, tension, stress and the pressures of a busy life, where there is never enough time and never enough rest? Perhaps it’s time for the soothing effects of GABA, a natural amino acid that calms the central nervous system and prevents anxiety and stress-related messages from reaching the motor centers of the brain - without the addictive side effects of synthetic tranquilizers. Bodybuilders are also drawn to GABA, because they believe its balancing effects stimulate the anterior pituitary gland, leading to higher levels of Human Growth Hormone (for muscle building). History: Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is an amino acid that is naturally formed in the brain and acts as a neurotransmitter (chemical that fosters communication between nerve cells) in the central nervous system and helps to keep stress-related nerve impulses at bay. GABA’s function is to decrease neuron activity and inhibit nerve cells from over-firing. It is essential for brain metabolism, aiding in proper brain function and is sometimes called ''The Body's Natural Tranquilizer.'' GABA is a natural compound that is present in virtually all living organisms and is derived from L-glutamic acid, one of the major amino acids in plants and animals that is responsible for many physiologic functions; and humans readily metabolize it, so that concentrations in the body remain constant. Gamma-aminobutyric acid was first synthesized in 1883, and was first known only as a plant and microbe metabolic product. In 1950, GABA was discovered to be an integral part of the mammalian central nervous system. Gamma-aminobutyric acid is produced in the brain and is also found in some extra-neural tissue, including kidney and pancreatic islet cells. Created in the body from the most common ''excitatory'' neurotransmitter in the brain (glutamic acid), GABA is the major ''inhibitory'' neurotransmitter in the brain, and it is interesting to note that this involves the conversion of this excitatory neurotransmitter into the principal inhibitory one to be effective. Along with niacinamide and inositol, GABA prevents anxiety and stress-r |

Powder can be consumed by sprinkling it over your food or mixing it with a syrup such as maple or chocolate. You could also mix it with orange juice. The citric acid in the orange juice will help to mask any unpleasant powder tastes. Other common names: Issopo, Ysop ''Purge me with Hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow'' - Psalms 51:7 Used since Biblical times as a cathartic, Hyssop is still used to cleanse and detoxify the intestinal tract. When feeling overworked or stressed, try Hyssop to relieve anxiety, soothe the nerves and enhance mental clarity. It's also a time-honored herb that has been used to relieve many respiratory ailments. History: Hyssop is an evergreen, bushy herb that grows to a height of two feet. Native to Southern Europe, Asia Minor and the Mediterranean region, it has been introduced into the warmer parts of the United States. Hyssop was mentioned in The Bible as a purifying herb, and the hyssopos of Dioscorides has been used almost continuously as a cathartic to cleanse the body. Its name is said to be derived from the Greek, azob, and Hebrew, ezob, meaning ''holy herb,'' because it was used for cleaning and purifying temples and sacred places. The ancient Greek physicians, Hippocrates and Galen, recommended Hyssop for inflammations of the chest and throat, pleurisy and bronchitis; and although too pungent for modern tastes, Pliny wrote in the first century A.D., that the Romans enjoyed its flavor and made an herbal wine from it called hyssopites. Medieval monks spiced soups and sauces with it, and the Benedictine monks of the tenth century brought the herb into central Europe to flavor liqueurs (Benedictine and Chartreuse). Herbalists in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries prescribed Hyssop for bad coughs, and its strong camphor-like odor made it popular as a cleansing herb. In the seventeenth century, it was used as a ''strewing herb'' in sick rooms to add fragrance to the air and deter plague and infection. Strewn about the house, the highly aromatic herb not only improved the air, but it also kept away insects and vermin. So powerful is the scent of Hyssop that elderly women in Europe were said to press its flowers in their prayer books to keep themselves from falling asleep during church services.

The citric acid in the orange juice will help to mask any unpleasant powder tastes. Other common names: Felon Herb, Cingulum Sancti Johannis, Saint John's Plant, Common Artemisia, Wild Wormwood, Chinese Moxa, Sailor's Tobacco Mugwort is a bitter digestive that relieves stomach acidity, dyspepsia, indigestion, travel sickness and acute bowel and stomach pain. It also soothes the nerves, reduces tension and insomnia. Mugwort is beneficial for female complaints, easing menstrual cramps and painful menopausal symptoms, and it also improves liver and gallbladder function. History: Mugwort is a native of temperate Europe and Asia and was introduced to the Americas, where it grows on roadsides, riverbanks and in vacant lots and waste places, thriving in well-drained, neutral-to-slightly-alkaline soil in sun and growing to a height of six feet. It is an aromatic, multi-branched shrubby perennial with red-brown stems, bearing deeply cut, dark green leaves (that are downy white underneath) and clusters of yellow-to-red-brown flower heads that bloom from July to September. It is one of the few palatable wormwoods of the Artemisia family, and its botanical genus, Artemisia, is derived from Artemis, the Greek name for Diana, who is said to have found the plants and delivered their powers to the centaur. In ancient Greece, the Father of Medicine, Hippocrates (circa 400 B.C.), and the first-century physician, Dioscorides, prescribed Mugwort as a specific to ease and hasten childbirth, and the herb was frequently mentioned in first-century Greek and Roman writings. Legend claims that the Romans planted Mugwort on roadsides, so that passing soldiers might put it in their sandals on long marches to soothe sore feet, and herbalists still recommend it in footbaths to invigorate tired feet. Mugwort appears in Chinese medical literature dating back to A.D. 500, and was used to ease rheumatism and is still used for acupuncture points on the skin. In Ayurvedic medicine, Mugwort has been used for the female reproductive system, nervous complaints and as a wash for fungal infections. Legend tells us that in the wilderness, Saint John the Baptist wore a cingulum, or belt, that was woven from Mugwort, givi |

Powder can be consumed by sprinkling it over your food or mixing it with a syrup such as maple or chocolate. You could also mix it with orange juice. The citric acid in the orange juice will help to mask any unpleasant powder tastes. Other common names: Aaron's Rod, Velvet Dock, Torches, Jacob's Staff, Bunny's Ears, Large-flowered Mullein, Witches' Candle, Beggar's Blanket, Velvet Plant, Pig Taper, Lungwort, Verbascum Flowers, Bullock's Lungwort, Woolen Blanket Herb, Flannel Flower, Shepherd's Club, Cow's Lungwort, Hag's Taper, Jupiter's Staff, Our Lady's Flannel, Candlewick, Grandmother's Flannel Mullein is an old and respected treatment for respiratory problems, including dry, hacking and unproductive coughs. It's a good herb to have handy for flu and chest colds. History: Mullein is a biennial plant that is native to regions bordering the Mediterranean Sea. It became naturalized in Europe and later escaped to North America, where it is often found growing wild in waste places and along roads as a weed, resembling a stately sentinel. Mullein is a strikingly beautiful plant that when cultivated is a stately addition to any garden. Like spinach, Mullein has oval leaves that grow close to the ground, but its flower spike may extend to a height of eight feet in springtime. Because of its thick, soft leaves, it is commonly called Grandmother's Flannel and Our Lady's Flannel. As a biennial, there is only foliage for the first year, which is then joined the next year by the flower. If it sheds its seeds, it will propagate itself; otherwise, it will have exhausted itself and will not return the third year. When in the wild, the seeds scatter and continue to propagate, but in cultivation, reproduction must be tended. Since antiquity mankind has used the velvety Mullein plant, which was prescribed by the Greek physician, Dioscorides, for respiratory ailments, a therapeutic use that continues to this day. Mullein is the plant that Ulysses took with him on his legendary voyage to protect himself against the wiles of the enchantress, Circe; and in Rome, General Agrippa said the fragrance would overpower demons. The Romans also used it as a hair rinse and carried the stem as a torch in religious processions, and later use also included dipping the tall stalks of this plant in tallow and lit as torches.

Powder can be consumed by sprinkling it over your food or mixing it with a syrup such as maple or chocolate. You could also mix it with orange juice. The citric acid in the orange juice will help to mask any unpleasant powder tastes. Other common names: Jatiphala, Nux Moschata, Myristica Jaiful, Black Caraway, Black Cumin, Nigella Seed One of the most widely-used domestic spices, Nutmeg is also an excellent tonic for the digestive tract that eases colic, flatulent dyspepsia, nausea, vomiting, abdominal distention and bad breath. It is also used to alleviate headaches, abdominal spasms, as well as chronic diarrhea and dysentery. History: Nutmeg grows on the Nutmeg tree, which is a tropical evergreen that is native to the Banda Islands of Indonesia and cultivated in the West Indies, South Africa, the Molucca Islands and other tropical areas of the world, thriving as a crop in well-drained, humus-rich, sandy soil at a minimum temperature of about sixty degrees Fahrenheit. The tree bears whorled branches of alternate-growing, dark-green leaves, pale yellow flowers and a brown, wrinkled fruit. The oval fruit is fleshy in appearance, like an apricot, but it may grow as large as a peach, and when it ripens, will split open, exposing the bright-red, netlike aril (from which another spice, mace, is derived) wrapped around a dark reddish-brown and brittle shell, within which lies a single kernel. The seed, after its shell has been broken and discarded, is the Nutmeg. Nutmeg and mace are the only spices that are produced by separate parts of the same fruit. Nutmeg is made from the dried seed, while mace is the dried seed cover known botanically as the aril. Although the fragrance is spicy, it is actually relaxing and is said to lower blood pressure and create a euphoric feeling. There are claims that Roman priests burned Nutmeg as a form of incense, and it was listed as a Chinese medicinal herb by about 600 A.D. Arab traders brought Nutmeg to Europe in the first century A.D., and by the Middle Ages, it was already an expensive commodity being traded by Arabs in Indian Ocean commerce. During this period, Nutmeg was not only an important spice, but it was also being used in Europe to ward off plague.

Other common names: Cowslip, Paigle, Fairy Cup, Butter Rose, English Cowslip, Key of St. Peter, Key of Heaven, Arthritica, Crewel, Buckles, Primrose Primula is a soothing and very versatile herb that calms the nerves, eases headaches and acts as a mild sedative and tranquilizer. It is also thought to relieve lung congestion and ease bronchitis; and as an anti-inflammatory, Primula is also believed to relieve the discomforts of gout, arthritis and rheumatic conditions. And to think, this pretty flower was almost picked to extinction! History: Primula is a hardy, herbaceous and low-growing perennial that is native to Europe, but many other species are common in continental Europe, Great Britain and Asia in north temperate zones. The beautiful, soft yellow flowers are popularly cultivated in gardens, with some varieties growing wild; and at one time, they were so popular that they were almost picked to extinction. The plant favors moist, limy soil in sun or partial shade, and the most common varieties grow from three to nine inches in height. Primula has a long history as a medicinal herb. The first-century Roman scholar, Pliny, recommended it for paralysis, gout and rheumatism, and Primula was once even known by the names Herba paralysis, Radix arthritica and Palsywort, because of its widespread use for those conditions. In medieval times, Primula was used to treat conditions involving spasms, cramps, paralysis and rheumatic pain, and in 1653, the great English herbalist, Nicholas Culpeper, recommended it for those very same conditions, also calling it ''as fine a salve to heal wound[s] as any I know.'' He also prescribed the flowers for ''all infirmities of the head,'' and the leaves as a beauty treatment, suggesting that they were excellent for ''spots and wrinkles of the skin, sun burning and freckles.'' The flowers were made into a wine, which was taken as a sedative and nervine, and it is interesting to note that Primula is still used today for most of these same medicinal applications. Today, in Europe, Primula (sometimes called the Primrose, but should not be confused with Evening Primr |

Other common names: European Pasque Flower, Passe Flower, Easter Flower, Meadow Anemone, Wind Flower Pulsatilla has been used by herbalists as a nervine to calm and soothe the nerves and relieve pain, neuralgia, tension headaches and insomnia. It is also thought to ease ovarian and menstrual pain, premenstrual syndrome (PMS); and the herb's antibacterial qualities are believed to be effective in alleviating acne and other skin problems. History: Pulsatilla is an anemone and one of over two thousand species of mostly herbs and shrubs in the large Ranunculaceae family. It is a handsome perennial that may be found in short clumps in the meadows and prairies of North America and Eurasia. This anthers of this deciduous plant are bright yellow and the purple bell consists of sepusls. The leaves are downy; the segments many-parted, and the solitary flowers are deep-purple or violet, blooming early in the spring, and, according to some writers, again in the latter part of summer or early in the fall. It is a simple, erect plant with rounded stems, reaching about five inches in height, and in its tallgrass prairie habitat, it is one of the first plants to bloom in the spring, often before the late winter snows have thawed. Because of the plant's early blooming period (about Eastertide), Pulsatilla was given the name, Pasque Flower, by the French. A rich, legendary history has gained the anemone many names and attributes. It is said to have sprung from the blood of Adonis, and the Romans considered it valuable in preventing fever. The common name, Windflower, is accounted for in several ways, one of which is Pliny's statement that anemone blossoms are opened by the wind. The plant may be found growing wild (although Pulsatilla vulgaris does not transplant well) in open meadows, pasture grounds and fields, thriving in dry, sandy, neutral-to-alkaline soil in full sun. Pulsatilla grows in the temperate zones of the northern hemisphere of Europe (where their medicinal uses have been recorded since antiquity by Galen and Dioscorides); with other species growing in North America (where it was considered the c |

The citric acid in the orange juice will help to mask any unpleasant powder tastes. Other Common Names: Apilak, Gelée Royale, Queen Bee Jelly Royal Jelly has been called the ''Crown Jewel'' of the beehive that has become extremely popular since the 1950s as a wonderful source of energy and stamina and the reason why the Queen Bee is so strong and enduring. It is also thought to be a great nutritional source of enzymes, proteins, sugars and amino acids, but there is no scientific proof to verify the supplement's efficacy for its use as an overall health tonic. You'll have to decide. History: Royal Jelly is a thick, milky material that is secreted from the hypopharyngea- salivary glands in the heads of the young nurse bees between the sixth and twelfth days of life, and when honey and pollen are combined and refined within the nurse bee, Royal Jelly is naturally created. While all larvae in a colony are fed Royal Jelly, it is the only food that is fed to the Queen Bee throughout her life; other adult bees do not consume it at all. All female eggs may produce a Queen Bee, but this occurs only when - during the whole development of the larvae - she is cared for and fed by this material - in large quantities. As a result of this special nutrition, the Queen develops reproductive organs (while the worker bee develops traits that relate only to work, i.e., stronger mandibles, brood food, wax glands and pollen baskets). The Queen develops in about fifteen days, while the workers require twenty-one; and finally, the Queen endures for several years, while workers survive only a few months. ''10-2 HDA,'' thought to be the principle active substance in Royal Jelly, makes the Queen Bee fifty percent larger than the other female worker bees and gives her incredible stamina, ovulation ability and longevity, living four to five years longer than worker bees who only live forty or more days. Perhaps this is the reason why so many positive qualities have been attributed to Royal Jelly as a truly rare gift of nature, but it should be noted that there is no clinical evidence to support the claims. There is even great controversy as to the constituents included in the supplement. Some say it in |

Other common names: Scullcap, Scutellaria, Blue Pimpernel, Blue Skullcap, Hood Wort, Mad Dog Weed, Helmet Flower, Side Flower, Madweed, Virginia Skullcap, Quaker Bonnet, American Scullcap Too much anxiety and stress in your life? Try Skull Cap as a natural way to ease frayed nerves, relax, and get a restful sleep. It is an old remedy that helps to relieve ''women's complaints,'' such as premenstrual syndrome and monthly cramps. Skull Cap is also considered very useful for alleviating the difficulties of barbiturate and drug withdrawal. History: Skull Cap (also spelled Scullcap) is a small, herbaceous perennial, indigenous to North America, with an erect and branching square stem and flowers that may grow to a height of three feet. It is abundant throughout the land and thrives in damp places, meadows, ditches and waste places from Canada to Florida. Different varieties/species of this herb grow throughout the world in temperate regions (most notably in China and Russia) with some similar medicinal applications as the ''American Scullcap,'' but most are not generally used interchangeably. The name, Skull Cap, is derived from the helmet-shaped flower that resembles a helmet with the visor raised, and a ''Skullcap'' was the word for a type of military helmet that was familiar to early colonists. Native Americans wisely used this herb as a sedative, diuretic and to promote menstruation. Skull Cap was believed to treat rabies in the 1700s, a use that was later discredited, but several of the herb's common names (Mad Dog Weed and Madweed) remained to describe it. Skull Cap has mainly been known for its use as a mild sedative (anxiolytic) in the form of herbal teas, tablets, capsules, dried leaf for smoking and oral liquid preparations, often in combination with other medicinal herbs. In the nineteenth century, Skull Cap was a popular medicinal treatment for nervous disorders and was used to subdue undue sexual desires without damage, as well as prevent epileptic seizures. The above-ground (aerial) part of the plant is used in herbal preparations. Some of the constituents included in Skull Cap |
