Medicinal Herbal Uses
Usnea Barb (Usnea Barbarta) (Traditionally used as a immuno-regulator, demulcent, anti-tumor, expectorant, muscle relaxant. This common lichen is antibacterial and antifungal. A powerful antibiotic, usnea is used to treat urinary tract infections, strep and staph infections, respiratory and sinus infections as well as fungal infections like yeast and vaginosis. Usnea is best used as a tincture. Usnea’s medicinal use dates back to ancient china, when it was used to treat infection. It is still used for that purpose today. In additional, unlike many antibiotics, usnea does not kill off friendly intestinal flora. Its main function is for the resolution in bacterial infections, bronchitis, candida, colds, cough, diarrhea, flu, giargia, gonorrhea, infection, lupus, pleurisy, pneumonia, sinus infection, staph infection, strep throat, tuberculosis, and urethritis. So a wonderful antibiotic, anti-fungal, anti-parasitic, immuno-stimulating, immuno-regulator, demulcent, anti-tumor, expectorant, muscle relaxant.
Pau d acro (Lapacho) ( Medical documentation accompanied the patients’ cures. It is native to South America, where it has been used to treat a wide range of conditions, including pain, arthritis, inflammation of the prostate gland (prostatitis), fever, dysentery, boils and ulcers, and various cancers. In the decades that followed, Pau d’Arco (Lapacho) has become accepted as a standard form of prescribed treatment for certain forms of cancer and infections because of the work done by Dr. Orlando deiSanti at the Municipal Hospital in Santo Andre. The physicians prescribing Pau d’Arco observed that the pain suffered by cancer patients (particularly leukemia) disappeared within hours after the tea was administered to them.
Olive Leaf (Olea europaea) - either kills, or resists the multiplication of a broad range of viruses, bacteria, yeasts, fungi, and other parasites
From research and clinical experience to date, we can say that supplemental olive leaf may be beneficial in the treatment for conditions caused by, or associated with, a virus, retrovirus, bacterium or protozoan. Among those treatable conditions are: influenza, the common cold, candida infections, meningitis, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), encephalitis, herpes I and II, human herpes virus 6 and 7, shingles (Herpes zoster), HIV/ARC/AIDS, chronic fatigue, hepatitis B, pneumonia, tuberculosis, gonorrhea, malaria, dengue, severe diarrhea, and dental, ear, urinary tract and surgical infections. is used for treating viral, bacterial, and other infections including influenza, swine flu, the common cold, meningitis, Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV), encephalitis, herpes, shingles, HIV/ARC/AIDS, and hepatitis B. Olive leaf is also used for pneumonia.
Sweet Annie (Artemisinin annua) (Traditionally used from being primarily antimalarial, the artemisinin that can be extracted from Artemisia annua has been found by numerous studies to be effective against a wide range of viruses, the parasitic protozoa Toxoplasma gondii, cancer cell lines, and other parasitic infections, such as schistosomiasis, leishmaniasis, Chagas disease, and African sleeping sickness. So great to use for Lung infection - pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP) that is caused by a fungus. This herb is also often used for Malaria and Babesia lyme infections, Leisgmaniasis (a parasite fighting herb, by itself it has been found effective at killing most of the leishmaniasis protozoan.
Coptis Root (Coptis chinensis)- (Traditionally used for the highest percentage of berberine of all plants.
Anti fungal, anti bacteria. ( (Traditionally used chlamydia, Cryptococcus, herpes simplex, leishmania, giardia, hepatitis B, Staph and Strep bacterial infections, aspergillus, E.Coli, dengue virus, Mycobacerium, helicobacter, cytomegalovirus
Cryptolepis (Cryptolepis sanguinolenta) (Traditionally used for things like systemic infection, Anit parasitic, Anti protozoal, anti inflammatory, Anti bacterial, Renal Vasodilator. (e.coli, herpes simplex, candida spp, Asperigillus spp, scabies, potent for resistant staph and streptococcus, etc, urinary tract infection. As a Renal Vasodilator - this herb will help decreases systemic vascular resistance and increases renal blood flow to the cortex and medullary regions in the kidney. It has been noted to improve renal function in patients with severe hypertension.
Tumeric root (curcuma longa) - (Traditionally used as a liver protectant which is that of the compounds that milk thistle and artichoke leaves contain. Turmeric decreases congestion and inflammation from stagnant mucous membranes. Turmeric is anti-inflammatory to the mucous membranes, which coat the throat, lungs, stomach and intestines. It is potent detoxifier. Turmeric’s active ingredient is an extracted compound called curcumin. Studies have shown that curcumin helps prevent several forms of cancer including breast, lung, stomach, liver, and colon because of its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. It stops the development of cancer by interfering with the cellular signaling aspects of the chronic disease. Lab results have found curcumin were evaluated in vitro against 17 Penicillium spp. Reference: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8176084/

Cachexia is a condition that causes extreme weight loss and muscle wasting. It is a symptom of many chronic conditions (degenerative conditions of the spine), such as cancer, chronic renal failure, FIV (Feline Aids).
Recent research suggests that cachexia often begins even before any weight loss occurs, so early on there may not be any symptoms.
When symptoms occur, they include:
~ Involuntary (unintentional) weight loss:
Weight loss with cachexia is involuntary, meaning that it occurs without trying. Yet it goes further than unexplained weight loss. Weight loss may occur even though you are getting an adequate amount of calories in your diet, and if calorie intake outweighs output of energy. Unintentional weight loss is defined as the loss of 5 percent of body weight over a 6 month to 12 month period, but even smaller amounts of weight loss could be of concern.
~ Skeletal muscle wasting:
Muscle wasting is a hallmark of cachexia and occurs along with a loss of fat. It can also be fairly insidious. In people who are overweight at the time of their diagnosis, significant loss of muscle mass can occur without an obvious outward appearance of weight loss.
~ Anorexia/loss of appetite:
Loss of appetite is another symptom of cachexia, and again, this symptom is somewhat different than ordinary "loss of appetite" symptoms. With cachexia, it is not simply a decreased desire for food, but more of a loss of a desire to eat.
Use in conjunction with the Amino Acid SUPPLEMENT called:
* Glycine Amino acid powder
That may preserve muscle mass in wasting conditions, such as cancer, malnutrition, Liver, heart, wellness for all species .
DOSAGE:
Small pet, Cat, Toy dog – Add ¼ teaspoon ( a good pinch of powder)
Equine, Med to Large Dog - Add 1/2 teaspoon of the powder in daily meals twice a day if possible.
Studies done
The non-essential amino acid, glycine, is often considered biologically neutral, but some studies indicate that it could be an effective anti-inflammatory agent.
Since inflammation is central to the development of cancer cachexia, glycine supplementation represents a simple, safe and promising treatment. We tested the hypothesis that glycine supplementation reduces skeletal muscle inflammation and preserves muscle mass in tumor-bearing mice.
To induce cachexia, CD2F1 mice received a subcutaneous injection of PBS (control, n = 12) or C26 tumor cells (n = 32) in accordance with the protocols developed by Murphy et al. [Murphy KT, Chee A, Trieu J, Naim T, Lynch GS. Importance of functional and metabolic impairments in the characterization of the C-26 murine model of cancer cachexia. Dis Models Mech 2012;5(4):533-545.]. Subcutaneous injections of glycine (n = 16) or PBS (n = 16) were administered daily for 21 days and at the conclusion of treatment, selected muscles, tumor and adipose tissue were collected and prepared for Real-Time RT-PCR or western blot analysis.
Glycine attenuated the loss of fat and muscle mass, blunted increases in markers of inflammation (F4/80, P = 0.01 & IL-6 mRNA, P = 0.01) and atrophic signaling (MuRF, P = 0.047; atrogin-1, P = 0.04; LC3B, P = 0.06 and; BNIP3, P = 0.10) and tended to attenuate the loss of body mass (P = 0.07), muscle function (P = 0.06), and oxidative stress (GSSG/GSH, P = 0.06 and DHE, P = 0.07) seen in tumor-bearing mice. Preliminary studies that compared the effect of glycine administration with isonitrogenous doses of alanine or citrulline showed that the observed protective effect was specific to glycine. Glycine protects skeletal muscle from cancer-induced wasting and loss of function, reduces the oxidative and inflammatory burden, and reduces the expression of genes associated with muscle protein breakdown in cancer cachexia. Importantly, these effects were glycine specific.
