Over 4 million Americans are diagnosed annually with peptic ulcer disease. Many learn to live with the resulting heartburn, acid reflux, and stomach pain by taking over-the-counter antacids, but these products help only temporarily. Ulcer Free! provides an unbiased review of the various treatments—both conventional and alternative—that can stop the symptoms and actually heal the ulcers. Finally, it introduces the breakthrough nutrient Zinc-Carnosine, which can be used in conjunction with other treatments or alone.

Million's of people are diagnosed annually with peptic ulcer disease. The resulting gastritis - inflammation of the stomach - causes heartburn, nausea, acid reflux, gas and stomach pain. For years, relief from these symptoms came in the form of antacids, dietary changes and, in some cases, surgery. When it was discovered that ulcers were actually caused by a bacterium, antibiotics became the treatment of choice. While more effective than previous attempts at relief, this cure came with its own set of risks, ranging from often-severe side effects to the development of drug-resistant bacterial strains. For many, the problems caused by this treatment outweighed the benefits. Now, a major nutritional scientific breakthrough offers a safe, simple and totally natural approach to treating this gastric problem. ZINC-CARNOSINE is the remarkable story of a new dietary supplement that has been proven to heal ulcers and relieve their symptoms. Here, you'll learn of Zinc-Carnosine's discovery and its decade of clinical studies as an alternative therapy. You'll also learn of the hidden dangers of antacid treatments. Just as important, you will discover how Zinc-Carnosine can be used to successfully treat ulcers. If you or a loved one suffer from ulcers, you know that the cures can often be as problematic as the condition itself. In ZINC-CARNOSINE, you'll discover how this unique supplement is offering a safe and effective treatment to millions of ulcer sufferers.

Over two decades ago, researchers observed that New Zealand’s coast-dwelling Maori had a lower incidence of arthritis-related disease than the Maori who lived inland. The cause was traced to the coastal Maori’s consumption of green-lipped mussels. With the risks of many anti-inflammatory prescription drugs continuing to make headlines, it is vital for arthritis sufferers, asthmatics, and others with inflammation-related disorders to find safer options. In The Inflammation Revolution, you will learn how a “miracle from the sea” can bring relief to millions.

While almost all mushrooms share beneficial properties that strengthen the immune system, the chapters of Medicinal Mushrooms are dedicated to mushrooms that are the most promising for healing a variety of illnesses, including reishi (for liver disorders), cordyceps sinesis (anti-aging), maitake (cancer) and hericum erinaceus (Alzheimer's Disease), among others.Mushrooms have been found in human culture for thousands of years. They have been used as medicine since the very beginning, but in the past fifty years several major advancements in medicine have come from mushrooms and other fungi, including the most famous of all, penicillin. This book explores mushroom history, as well as their potential uses in the future.

This third edition of Gershwin and Halpern's classic text, Bronchial Asthma, has been completely rewritten and expanded to include, from a variety of disciplines, the latest techniques and developments in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of asthma. With its new patient-oriented chapters on living with asthma, the book will empower the internist, the family practitioner, and the specialist in their struggle to reverse the current trend of increasing asthma mortality and to improve the quality of life of their patients and their families. The editors have selected authoritative contributors to Bronchial Asthma, organizing it into four comprehensive parts: I. Definitions and Host Responses to Bronchospasm defines asthma by analyzing its epidemiology, pathogenesis, and genetic roots, and illuminates the roles of mast cells and eosinophils. Chapters also cover the use of the pulmonary function laboratory and the differential diagnosis of asthma in children and adults. II.Patient Management introduces the latest thinking and techniques about treatment and management of patients, including allergic evaluation, radiological treatment, the role of immunotherapy, the differential management of status asthmaticus, the management of pregnant asthmatics, and an evaluation of unconventional therapies. III. Special Clinical Problems explores respiratory tract infections, the roles of anti-inflammatory agents, food additives, air pollution, aspergillosis, and occupational asthma. Four new chapters analyze exercise-induced asthma, asthma's relationship with chronic sinus disease, and the cross-cultural treatment of asthma in Europe and Japan. IV. Living with Asthma, an entirely new section, examines asthma in school children, athletes and asthma, legal issues for asthmatics, the psychology of asthma, and the use of prospective disease management.

Although the mechanisms and triggers that stimulate and are responsible for the natural history ofasthma are steadily being more clearly defined, uncertainties still surround both the genetic basis and the etiologyofone of the most common syndromes in the world. In fact, it is ofconsider- able concern and interest that the incidence of asthma today appears to be rising. These statistical increments may only reflect an increasing awareness of the disease, or its earlier and more sophisticated diagnosis. More important, however, asthma mortality appears to be increasing. This increase has occurred despite the continuing expansion of a diag- nostic and management information base, and the developmentofnovel andevermoreeffective therapeutic modalities.Severalexplanations have been offered for this increase in mortality, including that it may result from a statistical artifact [based on a change in the coding criteria for asthma from the International ClassificationofDiseases Version 8(ICD- 8) to ICD-9], worsened pollution, delays in seeking medical help, behav- ioral changes, deficits in the asthma education of both patients and primary careproviders, toxicity ofbeta-agonists, and noncompliance with instructions for the proper use of medications. It should also be empha- sized that the increases in both incidence and mortality may be a reflec- tion of accumulating body burdens of environmental toxicants and of increased oxidativedamage. There has clearly beenadegradation ofenvi- ronmental quality. And although considerableattention has been focused on this possibility in both the scientific and lay press, more research in this area is definitely needed.

Essential oils, known for their healing properties as far back as ancient Mesopotamia and Babylonia, have reached their zenith in Madagascar, says Dr. Georges M. Halpern, author of The Healing Trail: Essential Oils of Madagascar. This interesting, informative, and clearly written new book is well- documented, with entertaining historical stories sprinkled throughout, including how eighteenth- century botanists succeeded in making this land a garden for botanical study. Madagascar, the planet's fourth largest island, has long been famous for the individuality of its flora and fauna, and for the essential oils that many consider the best in the world. This book explains why and tells us what makes these oils so potent and effective. It details their use in aromatherapy, a healing method almost as old as medicine itself, and their many benefits to the perfume, cosmetic, and food industries; it describes the successful efforts of villagers to create a sustainable economy around them without having to cut down the rainforest, and offers practical advice for people wishing to visit this lushly beautiful island, "the naturalist's promised land." Dr. Halpern gives the history and the chemical and botanical makeup of eight essential oils (for example, tropical basil, cinnamon leaf and bark, geranium leaf, ginger, and vanilla) and tells how they are best used to promote physical and emotional health. We learn where they are grown on the island, how they are cultivated, what studies are being conducted, and what scientists believe might be future uses for them.THE HEALING TRAIL is an essential resource for learning how the unique aspects of this island have coalesced to create superior essential oils like no others on earth, and how these oils can be put to use for maximum benefit
