★Wheat – Triticum Aestivum (young shoots): Glucosinolates are sulphur containing glycosides that accumulate in tissues of cruciferous crops and also in many embryonic plants especially of interest here is Wheat/Grass. Following consumption, deglycosylation occurs due to the action of plant or microbial thioglucosinases ('myrosinases') leading to unstable compounds that rearrange, resulting in the formation of isothiocyanates, indoles found also in embryonic plant phytohormone “Auxin Indole Acetic Acid” (IAA) and a small number of other products. Epidemiological studies have consistently reported a reduction in incidence of chronic disease such as cancer and myocardial infarction through the consumption of one or more portions of cruciferous vegetables per week in the prevention of colon cancer, other digestive cancers, breast cancer, and prostate cancer.

Abscisic acid (ABA) Biological Activities:

• Acts as a Human Cytokine which ultimately control every aspect of body defense

• Suppresses the proliferation and induces apoptosis in human cancer cells

• Activate Chemokinesis, random (interleukin-8)

• Stimulation of Human Granulocytes

• Stimulates Phagocytosis

• Stimulates the production of Reactive Oxygen Species ROS (which help kill pathogens)

• Stimulation of Cyclic ADP-ribose

• Triggers Nitric Oxide production NO (another cytokine)

• Abscisic acid is a close relative of Vitamin A

• Highly stable inhibitor of the methylerythritol phosphate (MEP) pathway against broad-spectrum antimicrobial, antimalarial, and antiprotozoal activity without mechanism-based toxicity to humans

• Stimulates the endocrinal glands resulting in more secretions of enzymes and hormones

• Abscisic acid neutralizes the effect of chorionic gonadotropin, the hormone that protects the fetus from being rejected

• Stimulator of insulin release from human pancreatic beta cells regeneration will help lower the blood sugar level

• Helps losing weight, removal of toxins from the body, and promotes digestion

There are three functional categories of cytokines:

Cytokines that regulate innate immune responses

Cytokines that regulate adaptive Immune responses

Cytokines that stimulate hematopoiesis. The production of blood cellular components from hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow.

White Willow – Salix alba (buds)

Hematology Oncology: Anticoagulant: The mechanism of its cancer preventive action may be the suppression of inflammatory processes such as cyclooxygenase-2 expression, the inhibition of mitosis, and the induction of apoptosis at various stages in the progression and promotion of cancer. Salicylates-Salicylic acid (SA) Biological Activities: Suppress the proliferation in lymphoblastic leukemia, prostate, breast and melanoma in human cancer cells induce apoptosis.

Renal – Uro Genital System: Help soothe an irritated urinary tract especially post urinary Lithiasis. Also may lead to hyperuricemia, Gout which is one of the few contraindication of White Willow but these side effects have yet to be reported by the use of embryonic buds of White Willow. Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Oenothein A and oenothein B, as the main constituents responsible for the inhibition of the two enzymes Inhibition of 5 alpha-reductase and aromatase. Its anti-inflammatory properties work quickly to shrink an enlarged prostate. Restore proper function of the urinary tract.

Wormwood – Artemisia Annua (young shoots): Artemisinin in that treatment of human breast cancer and some form of prostate cancer cells with this plant compound disrupts estrogen responsiveness and stops cell growth.

Xenoestrogen Detoxification

Indoles, which are found in auxins and other embryonic plants, stimulate an enzyme that makes estrogen less effective, thus reducing the risk for breast and prostate estrogen cancer.

Glucuronic-Acid is a powerful detoxifier, normally produced in the healthy human liver with the ability to bind to and excrete both metabolic and environmental toxins, including heavy metals; works by assisting in the phase II liver detoxification pathway, leading to efficient elimination of endogenous and exogenous bodily wastes; antidote (Camphor); antidote (Morphine); antihepatotoxic; detoxicant; removes toxins and excess xenoestrogens. Uronic acid of glucose conjugates various substances in the liver for detoxification.

A healthy system uses detoxifying enzymes to conjugate and bind carcinogens to glucuronic acid. This complex is then called a glucuronide complex. These toxins can now be safely eliminated. Glucuronic-Acid inhibits beta-glucuronidase so that glucuronidation is not reversed. Simply put, toxins and estrogen bound for excretion stay bound, thus the total toxin and estrogen load on the body is reduced.

Conjugation and Glucuronidation are detoxification processes that occur when toxins, carcinogens, and used hormones are combined with and bound to water-soluble substances in the liver, thus making them more easily removed from the body. D-glucarate has been shown to support this vital process by inhibiting an enzyme called beta-glucuronidase that can break bonds between toxins and used hormones, allowing them to be re-circulated into the blood stream rather than excreted.

Poor estrogen metabolism in middle aged men has been attributed to various causes, including regular alcohol use, obesity, zinc deficiency, and exposure to drugs or environmental chemicals. Progesterone helps prevent estrogen from becoming harmful to our health (among other protective factors).  Therefore, supplementing with a natural progesterone cream can help correct hormonal imbalances that cause symptoms associated with estrogen dominance.

Source: Horse Chestnut – Aesculus hippocastanum (buds): Take 10 drops, 3 times a day with Juniper – Juniperus communis (young shoots): 6 drops, 3 times a day.

Horse Chesnut buds assist in the proper detoxification of plastic-hardening chemical called hydroxylated diphenylalkanes or Bisphenols A BPA, similar to the hormone estrogen, is used to seal canned food and make shatterproof bottles. It is also used in hundreds of household items, from sunglasses to CDs. Bisphenol-A has been found to interrupt the functioning of the hormone system which is linked to reproductive complications, early onset of puberty, liver and thyroid damage and testicular cancer. Polyvinyl chloride Phthalates are chemicals added to plastic to make it soft and flexible these toxic chemicals are easily released. Auxins Indole-3 acetic acid (IAA) which detoxifies excess xenoestrogens. Saponins seem to react with the cholesterol rich membranes of cancer cells, thereby limiting their growth and viability.

Warnings: Orally administered aescin has an absorption half-life of about 1 hour and an elimination half-life of about 20 hours. May prolong APTT, PTT, INR. Horse chestnut has an anti-clotting action, people taking medications such as Coumadin, Plavix or Ticlid, as well as those who use aspirin therapy to reduce blood clotting, should avoid the use of horse chestnut. This plant in the adult stage is potentially toxic contaminated with toxic metals if ingested and should not be used internally contrary to the embryonic form which is completely safe and non toxic.

Juniper young shoots assist in the proper detoxification of plastic-hardening chemical called hydroxylated diphenylalkanes or Bisphenols A BPA, similar to the hormone estrogen, is used to seal canned food and make shatterproof bottles. It is also used in hundreds of household items, from sunglasses to CDs. Bisphenol-A has been found to interrupt the functioning of the hormone system which is linked to reproductive complications, early onset of puberty, liver and thyroid damage and testicular cancer.

CAUTION: AVOID USING PLASTIC CONTAINERS.

CONCLUSION

Imbalances of estrogen can increase the activity of harmful substances—xenoestrogens--that promote cancer cell growth. The anti-estrogenic and apoptotic properties of oncophytoembryonic plants supply the body with a team of potent cancer fighters and estrogen blockers that neutralize these harmful substances. Plant stem cell properties offer an effective line of protection against exposure to xenoestrogens. PSC’s amazing phytochemical agents make up the winning formula to protect the body from the harmful agents that threaten good prostate health.

Xenoestrogens a synthetic substances that imitate the effects of estrogens, such as bisphenols and phthalates maybe one of the cause to contribute to the dramatic decline in bioavailable testosterone and sperm count that has been observed in American men over the past 50 years. This same period has coincided with a meteoric rise in the incidence of diabetes and heart disease in the US.

Optimizing testosterone levels may provide men with powerful protection against the risk of premature death and diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, osteoporosis, Alzheimer’s, and even prostate cancer. Saw palmetto is not a plant we ever recommend to an already aging man with declining testosterone which is not the cause of most prostate cancers in the first place.
