The Question and Answer
The leaves and roots of this herb provide a rich source of vitamins and minerals, including potassium. This herb is well-known for its diuretic effects, which may be helpful for hypertension and congestive heart failure, since diuretics have been shown to effectively reduce blood pressure in clinical trials and help improve the congestive symptoms of heart failure. In addition, this herb contains bitter substances that stimulate the release of gastric and salivary juices, increase bile secretion and bile flow from the gallbladder and liver, and provide a mild laxative effect, making this herb helpful for problems such as constipation, dyspepsia, hepatitis, jaundice and liver congestion. What is this herb?
Answer: Dandelion

The Question and Answer
The dried fruits of a certain flower (left behind after the bloom has died) are a rich source of vitamin C and the vitamin C cofactors (flavonoids) needed to increase capillary circulation and reduce capillary fragility, which can cause easy bruising. These dried fruits also contain astringent tannins that tighten tissues and slow the discharge of fluids—beneficial in the treatment of diarrhea, hemorrhoids and varicose veins. These dried fruits are commonly recommended for the prevention of colds, chills, influenza-type infections, infectious diseases and vitamin C deficiencies. An animal study confirmed a statistically significant gastroprotective (stomach-protecting) effect for these dried fruits against experimentally-induced ulcers in rats—these dried fruits were even more effective than misoprostol, which is FDA-approved in the United States for the prevention of NSAID-induced gastric ulcers. What are these dried fruits?

The Question and Answer
This naturally occurring non-protein amino acid is found in tea leaves. This amino acid has demonstrated wide-ranging physiological activity, including lowering blood pressure, inducing relaxation and reducing stress. This amino acid has been shown to cross the blood-brain barrier, causing significant increases in brain concentrations of the neurotransmitters (chemicals that transmit nerve impulses), serotonin and dopamine. This amino acid has also been shown to stimulate the brain’s production of alpha waves, which indicates an awake and alert, yet relaxed state. In addition, animal research suggests that this amino acid may help reduce weight and abdominal fat stores, as well as lower serum triglycerides. What is this non-protein amino acid?
Answer: L-theanine
