R, 90 caps: W
Description: R™ is the name of Syntrax's perfect alpha-lipoic acid supplement. While other companies in the industry use the cheaper RS form of alpha-lipoic acid, Syntrax has pushed the envelope to its extreme by releasing the R™ form of alpha-lipoic acid. R™ alpha-lipoic acid is the only totally natural form and demonstrates all of the beneficial properties of alpha-lipoic acid. Unfortunately, the RS form of alpha-lipoic acid is cheaper but it contains the non-natural form that has been shown in research studies to elicit some very serious negative consequences on insulin response/sensitivity. R-alpha lipoic acid is not only one of the very best and most universal antioxidants but it also is the perfect dietary supplement for improving insulin response/sensitivity and blood sugar control. Research studies have shown that the cheaper RS form of alpha-lipoic acid does not deliver the full beneficial effects of R form.The Inside Scoop: If you are looking to fully control the destructive effects of glycation as well as obtain the anabolic and ergogenic effects of improved insulin response/sensitivity, then demand the R™ form of alpha-lipoic acid. With R™, you will notice almost immediately an improved sense of well-being. Furthermore, if you're an athlete of anytype, you will notice a leaner, more fit body, fuller muscles and greater strength and performance. Demand the best; demand R™.

GlycerLean, Vanilla 2 lb: W
Description: Whey is the fastest protein on the planet. Flooding the bloodstream with lightning quick speed, whey increases protein synthesis better than any protein available.But whey's greatest strength -it's speed of delivery - is whey's greatest weakness. Whey is digested so rapidly that up to 58% of the protein found in regular everyday whey will never reach your muscles. The protein gets oxidized by the liver for energy - destroying any hope you had of improving your muscle growth. Unfortunately, this metabolic defect is present in every simple…regular whey protein product on the shelf today. This flaw of nature makes your daily scoops of regular whey useless at stopping catabolism - muscle tissue breakdown.Medical research shows muscle tissue breakdown can best be prevented by slower protein release, something no regular whey-containing protein powder can ever provide.The Inside Scoop: Glycerine has been shown to help... Naturally increase fat-burning for energy by up to 40% Improve workout stamina and endurance by up to 24% Decrease protein breakdown - allowing more protein to reach muscles for better repair and recovery Hydrate cells - helping to avoid catabolic conditions.Nutrition Facts: Serving Size (g) 48 Servings Per 19 Calories 190 Fat Calories 30 Total Fat (g) 3 Sat.

Muira Puama Extract (Ptychopetalum olacoides) 2 fl oz: HH
Effectively used as a thick boiled alcohol decoction (tincture), not as a tea. Muira puma has a long history in Amazonia as an aphrodisiac, and as a tonic for the nervous and gastrointestinal systems. Muira puama is also helpful with rheumatic problems. In1925, a pharamacological study was published on muira puama which indicated it effectiveness in treating disorders of the nervous system and sexual impotency which indicated that 'permanent effect is produced in locomotor ataxia, neuralgias of long standing, chronic rheumatism, and partial paralysis.' The active bark constituents are not water soluble, nor are they broken down in the digestive process. For human consumption, Muira puama's unque chemistry is, literally, best boiled in booze – for at least 20 minutes. The contemporary British Herbal Pharmacopoeia recommends Muira puama for dysentery and impotence. It has been in the Brazilian Pharmacopeia since the 1950's. Two recent human trials in France have shown 'a dynamic effect' on men experiencing erectile dysfunction and loss of sexual desire. Manufacturer: Health and Herbs

Myrrh Extract (Commiphora myrrha; Mo Yao) 2 fl oz: HH
Myrrh, as the biblical story of the three wise men shows, was one of the most desired and sought after items in the world. It was used as incense in religious rituals throughout the ancient world. It promotes spiritual awareness and is uplifting. The anti-infectious nature of this legendary incense plays an active role in many of today's herbal formulations. The bacteriostatic and antiseptic properties of the herb have been experimentally verified in North America, Europe and China. The oleo-gum-resin is antiseptic to mucous membranes, and, curiously, both inhibits over secretion as well as disinhibits under secretion of these tissues. Thus, it normalizes mucous membrane activity. Myrrh is known to contain many volatile oils which make the herb ideally suited for promoting free breathing during congestive colds, and for clearing out mucous-clogged passages in the body. The 1997 Commission E on Phytotherapy and Herbal Substances of the German Federal Institute for Drugs recommends Myrrh oleo-gum resin for 'Topical treatment of mild inflammations of the oral and pharyngeal mucosa.' 'Dosage: Myrrh tincture: Dab 2 - 3 times daily with undiluted tincture; As a rinse or gargle: 5 - 10 drops in a glass of water. In dental powders: 10 percent of powdered resin. Mode of Administration: Powdered resin, myrrh tincture and other galenical preparations for topical use. Action: Astringent.' Grieve's classic 'A Modern Herbal': 'A direct emmenagogue, a tonic in dyspepsia, an expectorant in the absence of feverish symptoms, a stimulant to the mucous tissues, a stomachic carminative, exciting appetite and the flow of gastric juice, and an astringent wash.' 'It is used in chronic catarrh, phthisis pulmonalis, chlorosis, and in amenorrhoea is often combined with aloes and iron. As a wash it is good for spongy gums, ulcerated throat and aphthous stomatitis, and the tincture is also applied to foul and indolent ulcers. It has been found helpful in bronchorrhoea and leucorrhoea.' 'It has also been used as a vermifuge. Myrrh is a common ingredient of toothpowders, and is used with borax in tincture, with other ingredients, as a mouth-wash. Meetiga, the trade-name of Arabian Myrrh, is more brittle and gummy than that of Somaliland and has not its white markings. The liquid Myrrh, or Stacte, spoken of by Pliny, and an ingredient of Jewish holy incense, wasformerly obtainable and greatly valued, but cannot now be identified. Dosages: 10 to 30 grains. Of fluid extract, 5 to 30 minims.' King's 1898 Dispensatory: 'Myrrh is stimulant, especially to mucous tissues. It also exerts an antiseptic influence, and is used to promote expectoration, as well as menstruation. It has also been used as a vermifuge. Internally, the smaller doses promote digestion. Large doses accelerate the pulse, augment the heat of the body, cause gastric heat and burning, great sweating and marked prostration; occasionally it causes nausea, vomiting, and purgation. It is not antispasmodic, Manufacturer: Health and Herbs

It can be added to soap to color it yellow to deep orange, and it is nice for coloring rice, bread or cheese, since it adds color without altering the taste. Since ancient times, orange pigments for coloring decorative straw, paper and cloth have been obtained from safflower. Grieve's classic 'A Modern Herbal': 'The flowers are the part used, their action is laxative and diaphoretic. In domestic practice these flowers are used in children's and infants' complaints - measles, fevers, and eruptive skin eomplaints. An infusion is made of ½ oz. of the flowers to a pint of boilingwater taken warm to produce diaphorasis.' King's 1898 Dispensatory: 'Dyer's saffron, when the warm infusion is used, is said to restore the menstrual discharge which has been recently suppressed by cold; also when taken largely, to produce an action on the bowels.' 'The warm infusion is often employed as a diaphoretic in domestic practice among children and infants in measles, scarlet fever, and other eruptive maladies. It may be given tolerably freely.' 'The infusion may be made by infusing 1 or 2 drachms of the flowers in ½ pint of boiling water. The seeds are white and angular, and have been much used as a purgative and emmenagogue. They yield an oil by expression, which has been used as a local application in rheumatic and paralytic affections; also for bad ulcers.' Manufacturer: Frontier Natural Brands Bulk Herbs

Violet Leaf, Pansy, Cut & Sifted (Viola tricolor) 1 lb: C
This is Starwest's nitrogen-flushed double wall silverfoil pack. The Heartsease or Pansy, Viola tricolor, is used the same way as the Blue or Sweet-scented Violet, Viola odorata. As King's puts it, 'The V. tricolor, or pansy, may be used as a substitute.' Used as an infusion, strong decoction and syrup. Medicinal and edible, the flowers and leaves of viola are made into a syrup used in alternative medicine mainly for respiratory ailments associated with congestion, coughing, and sore throat. Flowers are also edible and used as food additives for instance in salad, made into jelly, and candied for decoration. Tea made from the leaves is used to treat digestive disorders and new research has detected the presence of a glycoside of salicylic acid (natural aspirin) which substantiates its use for centuries as a medicinal remedy for headache, body pains and as a sedative. The plants constituents include eugenol, ferulic-acid, kaempferol, quercetin, and scopoletin. Used externally the leaf infusion reduces swelling and soothes irritations. As a bath additive the leaves are soothing to the skin and the aroma is very relaxing. Grieve's classic 'A Modern Herbal': 'The Violet is still found in the Pharmacopoeias.' Of the leaves, Gerard tells us that they: 'are used in cooling plasters, oyles and comfortable cataplasms or poultices, and are of greater efficacies amongst other herbs as Mercury, Mallowes and such like in clisters for the purposes aforesaid.' 'They are an old popular remedy for bruises.' 'The glucosidal principles contained in the leaves have not yet been fully investigated, but would appear to have distinct antiseptic properties.' 'Of late years, preparations of fresh Violet leaves have been used both internally and externally in the treatment of cancer, and though the British Pharmacopoeia does not uphold the treatment, it specifies how they are employed. From other sources it is stated that Violet leaves have been used with benefit to allay the pain in cancerous growths, especially in the throat, which no other treatment relieved, and several reputed cures have been recorded.' 'An infusion of the leaves in boiling water (1 in 5) has been administered in doses of 1 to 2 fluid ounces. A syrup of the petals and a liquid extract of the fresh leaves are also used, the latter taken in teaspoonful doses, or rubbed in locally. The fresh leaves are also prepared as a compress for local application.' 'The infusion is generally drunk cold and is made as follows: Take 2½ oz. of Violet leaves, freshly picked. Wash them clean in cold water and place them in a stone jar and pour over them 1 pint of boiling water. Tie the jar down and let it stand for twelve hours, till the water is green. Then strain off the liquid into a well-stoppered bottle and the tea is readyfor drinking cold at intervals of every two hours during the day, taking a wineglassful at a time till the whole has been consumed each day.

Castor Carrier & Supplement Oil 1 fl oz: C
Cosmetic and food grade oil. Also known as Castor Bean and Palma Christi. Castor Oil has been used therapeutically in ancient India, China, Persia, Egypt, Africa, Greece, Rome, the Americas, and in 17th century Europe. Today it is used as an emollient and skin softener, treatment of gastrointestinal problems, lacerations, and other skin disorders such as psoriasis. It is also found in many skin care products. One way it is used is to treat skin problems is to make a hot oil pad by pouring the castor oil on an absorbent material placed over the treatment area and then heating the pad to heat the castor oil. Taken internally, Castor Oil is used as a treatment for constipation, intestinal inflammation and worms. Castor Oil has been used as a laxative since antiquity. It's mentioned by the ancient Greek historian Herodotus, and beans from the Castor plant have been found in Egyptian tombs. Castor Oil's laxative effect stems from its ability to prevent absorption of liquids from the intestinal tract. Don't take Castor Oil if you have nausea, vomiting, an intestinal blockage, appendicitis, severe inflammatory intestinal disease, or any abdominal pain of unknown origin. Not recommended for pregnant and nursing women and children under 12. Grieve's classic 'A Modern Herbal': Castor Oil is regarded as one of the most valuable laxatives in medicine. It is of special service in temporary constipation and wherever a mild action is essential, and is extremely useful for children and the aged. It is used in cases of colic and acute diarrhoea due to slow digestion, but must not be employed in cases of chronic constipation, which it only aggravates whilst relieving the symptoms. It acts in about five hours, affecting the entire length of the bowel, but not increasing the flow of bile, except in very large doses. The mode of its action is unknown. The oil will purge when rubbed into the skin, or injected. It is also used for expelling worms, after other special remedies have been administered. The only serious objections to the use of Castor Oil are its flavour and the sickness often produced by it. The nauseous taste may be disguised by administering it covered by Lemon oil, Sassafras oil and other essential oils, or floating on Peppermint or Cinnamon water, or coffee, or shaken up with glycerine, or given in fresh or warmed milk, the dose varying from 1 to 4 teaspoonsful. Probably the best way, however, is to administer it in capsules. Small repeated doses may be given in the intestinal colic of children. It may also be made into an emulsion with the yolk of an egg or mucilage; or with orange-wine or gin. Castor Oil forms a clean, light-coloured soap, which dries and hardens well and is free from smell. It has been recommended for medicinal use. The inferior qualities of the oil are frequently employed in India for soap-making. Externally, the oil has been recommended for various cutaneous complaints, such as ringworm, itch, etc. The freshleaves are Manufacturer: Starwest Botanicals

Sun System® X - Econo Gro™ 240 Volt- Switchable (MH/HPS) - 400 Watt Ballast with Socket Assembly and 4’ Parabolic (White) Vertical Reflector: J
Search SKU # J_904,110 for a picture and description of the 4’ Parabolic Vertical Burning Reflector White. Sun System fixtures are priced without lamps. Please purchase your choice of lamps separately. This is the 240 volt version of the Econo Gro™ ballast. Sun System® X - Econo Gro™ Switchable Ballast with Socket Assembly and Reflector: Independent test studies have shown that plant growth under metal halide light in the early stages of growth with high pressure sodium in the later stages are consistently healthier, larger and have more fruit/flower weight than plants grown under metal halide or high pressure sodium exclusively. The switchable ballast easily facilitates this process. Just insert your favorite metal halide lamp and set the switch to the ''MH'' position. When it’s time to change over to HPS simply take out the MH lamp, insert the HPS lamp and change the switch position to ''HPS'' and turn it on. Because the fixture can use standard lamps instead of conversion lamps the grower benefits two ways: 1) MONEY SAVINGS - standard lamps cost about half as much as conversion lamps. 2) MORE LUMENS - standard lamps have a better lumen output than conversion lamps. The ballast includes: • Die cast aluminum housing • Louvers for cooling • Rubber feet • Multi-volt ballast • 6 ft. grounded power cord • 15 ft. detachable lamp cord • White powder coated finish • Printed UPS shippable carton • High temperature domestic capacitor • 5 Year Warranty • Technical guide High intensity discharge (H.I.D.) lighting has traditionally been used only by commercial growers in large scale greenhouses. These business savvy professionals have long understood the exceptional benefits of supplemental, artificial lighting for plant growth. From stronger, healthier seed starts, into faster maturing, vigorous plants that offer much higher yields and more spectacular flowering than can be achieved without supplemental lighting. H.I.D. lighting not only supplements sunlight, but can actually replace it during long winters where sunlight is in short supply. It is very energy efficient and the cost of operating one of our light systems is comparable to using one of your kitchen appliances. Plants need light for proper growth. The light spectrum range produced by artificial light (particularly H.I.D. light) enhances the natural light derived from the sun by many times over. The result… when combined with proper nutrients… is nothing short of AMAZING! All this being said, what can supplemental lighting do for a home, hobby grower? • Significantly increase the health, strength, growth rate & yield of your plants. • Supplement natural sunlight in your backyard greenhouse virtually eliminates seasonal & geographical restraints. In addition, by extending the ''day length'' with supplemental lighting, you will greatly enhance your growing success. • Your container plants that you have outdoors on decks & patios during the summer can be moved indoors during the wi Manufacturer: Sunlight Supply

Bhumy Amalaki Herb Powder (Phyllanthus niruri) 8 oz: B
Abounding in rainforest worldwide, Phyllanthus niruri is called Chanca Piedra, 'stone breaker' or 'shatter stone' in the Amazon. It has been called Stone Breaker because it has used for generations by the indigenous peoples of the Amazon as an effective remedy to eliminate gallstones and kidney stones and for other kidney problems. The plant is employed for numerous other conditions including blennorrhagia, colic, diabetes, dysentery, fever, flu, tumors, jaundice, vaginitis, and dyspepsia. It is of little wonder that Chanca Piedra is used for so many things since the plant has proven antihepatotoxic, antispasmodic, antiviral, antibacterial, diuretic, febrifugal and hypoglycemic activities. It is also considered anodyne, apertif, carminative, digestive, emmenagogue, laxative, stomachic, tonic and vermifuge based on its long documented history of uses. Chanca Piedra is still widely used in herbal medicine in South America, remaining the most popular remedy for gallstones and kidney stones throughout the continent. In Peruvian herbal medicine, it is also used for hepatitis, urinary infections, and as a diuretic. In Brazilian herbal medicine it is called Quebra Pedra and is considered an excellent remedy to remove uric acid from the urine and to eliminate stones. It is also used in Brazil for hydropsy, urinary and bladder infections and blockages, liver ailments, painful joints, cystitis, prostate disorders, kidney disorders, hepatitis, diabetes and as a antispasmodic and muscle relaxant specific to the urinary tract system. Chanca Piedra, indigenous to India where it is called Pitirishi or Budhatri, is a common household remedy for asthma, bronchitis and to cure coughing, extreme thirst, anemia, jaundice and tuberculosis. Also indigenous to the Bahamas where it is called hurricane weed or gale-wind grass. It is used in local herbal medicine there for poor appetite, constipation, typhoid fever, fluand colds. Chanca Piedra has been the subject of much research to determine the active constituents and their pharmacological activities beginning in the mid-1960's. Indian and Brazilian research groups were the first to conduct these studies since the plant was indigenous to their areas with a long history of use by its inhabitants. In some of the published research, scientists make little or no distinction between P. niruri and P. amarus because of the very similar phytochemical make up of both plants. In fact, some references are found in which scientists believe that it is one species of plant with two botanical names, but of course there are botanists who would argue this point. Chanca piedra's traditional uses for kidney stones and gallstones have been validated by clinical research. In a 1999 clinical study (Campos, A.H., et.al.) a chanca piedra extract extract exhibited a potent and effective non-concentration-dependent inhibitory effect on the calcium oxalate crystal formation (the building blocks of most kidney stones).

Gardenia Fruit (Gardenia jasminoides; Zhi Zi) Powdered: 500 gm (1.17 lb): V
This is Plum Flower brand's nitrogen-flushed vacuum pack. Plum Flower is one of the most distinguished herb houses in the world. Sulfur Free, Chlorine Free, Aluminum Phosphate Free. Sulfites are used to give herbs the appearance of freshness. As with dried fruit. un-sulfured herbs look different than those that are adulterated with preservatives. Herbs that are preservative free are more natural looking and are generally darker. The brightness of the herbs may be appealing, but it indicates the presence of harmful additives. Despite their appearance, unsulfured herbs are more fresh and safer than regular commercially available products. The use of sulfur, chlorine and aluminum phosphate was made unnecessary through the establishment of Plum Flower processing stations in China. Herb harvesters slice and process the herbs fresh, avoiding the need to rehydrate dried herbs later to process. This first step is crucial, as rehydration leads to decomposition and thus the need for preservatives. The herbs are then packed and the packages vacuum-packed, injected with nitrogen, and sealed. The nitrogen process combined with the lack of sulfur treatment inhibits the growth of anaerobic organisms, resulting in safer, higher quality herbs. After opening, store in a cool dry place. The facilities in Lanzhou and Guang Zhou, China, scientifically test each batch of herbs before, during and after the processing to make sure that all the active ingredients are present. Herbs are also tested to ensure that the formulas surpass all FDA guidelines regarding heavy metals. Those herbs exported to the U.S. are voluntarily submitted to the FDA for approval. Finally, batches are regularly sent out for quality control testing in third-party labs to double-ensure that Plum Flower products are 100% free of pharmaceuticals, preservatives and dyes. The Lanzhou and Guang Zhou factories are so clean, they are certified by the Australian Government’s TherapeuticGoods Administration (GMP). These standards surpass any of the FDA, and are considered the highest for any government agency in the world. Varuna Fulfillment Center items are special ordered.

Milk Thistle Extract Powder: 80% Silymarin (Silybum marianum) 1 lb: C
This is Starwest's nitrogen-flushed double wall silverfoil pack. Used as a decoction, extract and tincture. 80% Silymarin The 1997 Commission E on Phytotherapy and Herbal Substances of the German Federal Institute for Drugs recommends Milk Thistle ripe seed: 'The drug contains silibinin, silydianin, and silychristin. Uses: Crude drug: Dyspeptic complaints. Formulations [an extract standardized to at least 70 percent silymarin, the collective name for the three compounds listed]: Toxic liver damage; for supportive treatment in chronic inflammatory liver disease and hepatic cirrhosis.' 'Average daily dose of drug: 12 - 15 g; Formulations equivalent to 200 - 400 mg of silymarin, calculated as silibinin. Mode of Administration: Powdered drug for making infusions and other galenical formulations to be taken by mouth.' 'Actions: Silymarin acts as an antagonist in many experimental liver-damage models: phalloidin and -amanitin (death-cap toxins), lanthanides, carbon tetrachloride, galactosamine, thioacetamide, and the hepatotoxic virus FV3 of cold-blooded vertebrates. The therapeutic activity of silymarin is based on two sites or mechanisms of action: (a) it alters the structure of the outer cell membrane of the hepatocytes in such a way as to prevent penetration of the liver toxin into the interior of the cell; (b) it stimulates the actionof nucleolar polymerase A, resulting in an increase in ribosomal protein synthesis, and thus stimulates the regenerative ability of the liver and the formation of new hepatocytes.' Milk thistle is believed to protect the cells of the liver by blocking the entrance of harmful toxins and helping to remove these toxins from the liver cells. Milk thistle seeds contain a bioflavonoid complex known as silymarin. As with other bioflavonoids, silymarin is a powerful antioxidant. Milk thistle also regenerates injured liver cells. Milk thistle extract is most commonly recommended to counteract the harmful actions of alcohol on the liver. Long-term placebo-controlled, double blind studies have shown milk thistle extracts to be effective in patients with liver cirrhosis, chronic hepatitis, and even diabetes due to cirrhosis. Milk thistle alters bile makeup, thereby potentially reducing risk of gallstones. Since silymarin is not very soluble in water, a strong boiled decoction of the ground seeds is most effective, rather than a weak infusion (tea). More effective yet is the standardized extract. A recent case report of chronic infection by hepatitis B virus and hepatitis C virus demonstrated potential efficacy of treatment with milk thistle (10 g ground-up seeds in oatmeal with standardized (70%) milk thistle extract capsules three times daily) in combination with another herb known for its hepatoprotectant activity, Phyllanthus amarus (200 mg, three times daily).

Broccoli Powder (Brassica oleracea) 1 lb: C
This is Starwest's nitrogen-flushed double wall silverfoil pack. The name comes from the Italian word for 'cabbage sprout' and indeed, broccoli is a relative of cabbage, Brussels sprouts and cauliflower. Broccoli is versatile, trulydelicious, and broccoli and broccoli sprouts appear to help prevent stomach cancer. http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2002/05/28/health/main510308.shtml: 'Broccoli and broccoli sprouts kill a bacterium which a lot of us actually have,' Jed W. Fahey of the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine told CBS Radio News. 'It doesn't make most of us sick, but some of us it can give ulcers to and eventually lead to stomach cancer.' In laboratory tests the chemical sulforaphane killed helicobacter pylori, a bacteria that causes stomach ulcers and often fatal stomach cancers. 'Sulforaphane does protect against tumors or cancer at multiple organ sites in many animal models,' said Fahey. 'It looks very much like it is also protective in humans.' And the good news is there appears to be enough of it in broccoli sprouts and some varieties of broccoli to benefit people who eat the vegetables. The researchers could not say how much broccoli one would have to eat for there to be an impact, something they said could not be determined without long-term tests involving humans. 'The levels were well within the range that you would expect to achieve by eating a serving of broccoli,' Fahey said. The findings are reported in Tuesday's issue of Proceedings of the National Academy of Science. Broccoli sprouts are tiny three-day-old plants that resemble alfalfa sprouts and have a peppery flavor. 'I feel quite comfortable suggesting people eat more fruits and vegetables, specifically cruciferous vegetables, specifically broccoli,' Fahey said. 'We know it's safe and healthy...we know sulforaphane is effective in protecting against cancers.' Dr. Paul Talalay, a co-researcher at Johns Hopkins, had previously reported sulforaphane is an effective anticancer agent and the new studies extended that work to the bacteria that causes stomach cancer and ulcers.

Senega Snake Root Extract (Polygala senega) 2 fl oz: HH
Synonyms: Snake Root. Senegae Radix. Seneca. Seneka. Polygala Virginiana. Plantula Marilandica. Milkwort. Mountain Flax. Rattlesnake Root. Part Used: Dried Root. Habitat: North America. Grieve's classsic 'A Modern Herbal': A stimulating expectorant, diuretic and diaphoretic. The Ancients regarded its action as identical with that of ipecacuanha, but in doses of three times the strength. It should be used when the power to expectorate is small - very useful in the second stage of acute bronchial catarrh or pneumonia. It is of little value when the expectoration is tough and scanty, but very helpful in chronic pneumonia or bronchitis or dropsy dependent on renal disease. Spirit of chloroform will lessen its disagreeable taste. It has been used also in croup, whooping-cough, and rheumatism. As it stimulates most of the secretions, it is also useful as a sialagogue and emmenagogue. In active inflammation its use is contraindicated. In large doses it is emetic andcathartic. Dosages: Powdered root, 5 to 20 grains. Fluid extract, 10 to 20 drops. Of infusion, B.P., 4 to 8 drachrns. Of syrup, U.S.P., 1 drachm. Of tincture, B.P., 1/2 to 1 drachrn. Conct. Solut., B.P., 1/2 to 1 drachm. King's American Dispensatory. by Harvey Wickes Felter, M.D., and John Uri Lloyd, Phr. M., Ph. D., 1898. In large doses, Senega is emetic and cathartic; in ordinary doses, it stimulates most of the secretions, acting especially as a sialagogue, expectorant, diuretic, diaphoretic, and emmenagogue. Its expectorant properties render it very useful in chronic catarrh, and protracted and typhoid pneumonia, bronchorrhoea, chronic bronchitis, with profuse secretion, humoral asthma, and in the commencing stages of croup. In active inflammation its use is contraindicated. In relaxed sore throat, it is recommended as a, local stimulant; also as a diaphoretico-diuretic in rheumatism, and as an emmenagogue in amenorrhoea. It is not without effect upon squamous skin diseases, and its action in this direction should be studied. Dose of the powdered root, from 5 to 20 grains; of the infusion or syrup, from 1/2 to 2 fluid ounces. The extract prepared from an infusion of the root, obtained by percolation, and evaporated to the proper consistence by means of a water-bath, may be given in doses of from 1 to 4 grains; specific Senega, 1 to 20 drops. Polygalic acid may be given for the same purposes as the root, in doses of from 1/4 to 1/2 grain. It is best taken in hot, sweetened water. Specific Indications and Uses.—Relaxation of the respiratory mucous membranes and of the skin; cough deep and hoarse, with excessive secretion, mucous rales, nausea, and sometimes vomiting; last stage of typhoid pneumonia, bronchorrhoea. The Dispensatory of the United States of America. edited by Joseph P. Remington, Horatio C. Wood and others, 1918. Senega owes what therapeutic virtues it possesses to its saponins.
