RESEARCH DATA
Shiitake: The Alcohol-Free Advantage: - Alcohol can stress a weakened or under-functioning liver in sensitive individuals, such as those suffering from allergies, environmental sensitivities, systemic candida, and/or a host of other health concerns.
- People in recovery from alcoholism cannot use alcohol.
- Alcohol is not appropriate for young children.
- Since alcohol easily evaporates, it can lose its effectiveness as a preservative for the herbal constituents as the amount of the alcohol in the bottle decreases.
Nature’s Answer's alcohol-free extract formulas replace alcohol with natural vegetable glycerin.
The Bio-Chelated method incorporates soaking for a period of time, using different menstruum ratios for different plants to optimize their therapeutic values. Furthermore, this procedure offers additional significant advantages when compared with other types of extraction processes commonly employed by competitors in the herbal industry.
Bio-Chelation includes the use of "cold extraction", where the plant parts are extracted without being exposed to excessive amounts of heat. Cold extraction helps the herb maintain vital minerals and other trace elements in solution, thus enabling the herb to keep its Holistic Balance intact. (Holistic Balance means that extracts retain as many of the natural constituents of the original plant as possible.)
In addition, the Bio-Chelated process incorporates the use of an exclusive technique that removes much of the alcohol used during the menstruum soaking (maceration) phase, replacing it with vegetable glycerin instead. The resulting yield is an herbal extract that is either alcohol-free, or has a low alcohol content.
Both alcohol-free and low alcohol products from Nature's Answer feature vegetable glycerin only.
The Bio-Chelated method was the first extraction process to yield a 12-14% alcohol extract in the herbal industry!
The advantages of Glycerin:- Glycerin helps to bind certain plant constituents and is easily absorbed by the cells.
- Glycerin occurs naturally throughout the body.
- It also makes up a portion of the cellular membranes. This gives glycerin an affinity for the body, making it an excellent carrier for herbs.
- Glycerin serves to protect and preserve the potency of the herbal extract in the bottle over the life of the product longer than alcohol would.
- Glycerin, due to its viscosity (thickness) aids in maintaining the freshness and potency of the herb for the life of the product.
- Glycerin has the added advantage of acting as a sugar-free natural sweetener, thus making the taste of some bitter herbs more palatable.

NATURAL KILLER CELLS SLAY FATIGUE
by Michael E. Rosenbaum, MD
Fatigue is one of the most common health complaints with symptoms that are hard to define and resistant to treatment. Up to 20% of adults report fatigue so severe that it impairs work and home life. Research that looks at the interaction of the body’s immune system with the endocrine and nervous systems, and the role of white blood cells called Natural Killer (NK) cells, offers new hope.
Natural Killer (NK) cells are a type of white blood cell that earn their name because they have a “natural,” meaning innate, ability to identify and kill any “non-self cells” (the microscopic invaders or abnormal cells that mean us harm). NK cells patrol your tissues and blood stream on the look out for “non-self cells.” When they find them, they very often nip them in the bud before they have a chance to take root and cause problems.
They also help regulate overall immune response. When you are healthy, NK cells by themselves can handle any invaders and they send a signal to the rest of the body that “all is well,” which down regulates other aspects of immune function allowing these to be rested, ready and better able to respond to the next immune challenge.
When NK cells are overwhelmed, they “sound the alarm” by initiating a cascade of cytokines (immune system messenger compounds) that recruit other white blood cells to the scene. They signal the endocrine system to produce hormones that alter body temperature and metabolism to fight disease, and signal the nervous system and brain altering behavior, to seek rest and recovery.
NK cell function fluctuates throughout our lives. It generally declines with age and in response to physical stress (such as injury and exposure to toxins) and psychological stress 9like grief, or home and work pressures). When NK cell function is low, susceptibility to infection increases, so “flu-like” symptoms are more common. Also when NK cell function in low the “all clear” signal they send is weak, so illness related immune, endocrine and nervous system activity is higher than it should be, producing many fatigue symptoms.
Research shows that measure can be taken to support higher NK cell function that can help improve or eliminate fatigue symptoms. Studies of prayer and meditation function by up to 50%, likewise for smiling and laughing. Regular exercise can double NK cell function, and significant improvements result from the use of certain dietary supplements, such as ImmPower.
Studies show the ingredient in ImmPower helps support peak NK cell function. Taking two ImmPower can result in measurable improvement in NK cell function in just 4 hours, and long term use can result enhancement of NK cell activity of several hundred percent.
The success of the Natural Killer cell centered approach to understanding and treating the complex phenomena of stress induced fatigue, suggests that strategies to support peak NK cell function may provide an important new element to the treatment and prevention of many health conditions.
