Brief Introduction

Salicin is a naturally occurring compound found in the bark of several species of trees, primarily North American in origin, that are from the willow, poplar, and aspen families. White willow, from whose Latin name, Salix alba, the term salicin is derived, is the most well known source of this compound, but it is found in a number of other trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants as well being synthesized commercially. It is a member of the glucoside family of chemicals and is used as an analgesic and antipyretic. Salicin is used as a precursor for the synthesis of salicylic acid and acetylsalicylic acid, commonly known as aspirin.

A colorless, crystalline solid in its pure form, salicin has the chemical formula C13H18O7. Part of its chemical structure is equivalent to the sugar glucose, meaning it is classified as a glucoside. It is soluble, but not strongly so, in water and alcolhol. Salicin has a bitter taste and is a natural analgesic and antipyretic, or fever reducer. In large quantities, it can be toxic, and overdoses may lead to liver and kidney damage. In its raw form, it may be mildly irritating to skin, respiratory organs, and eyes.

Function

1. Salicin is used to ease pain and reduce inflammation.

2. Relieve acute and chronic pain, including headache, back and neck pain, muscle aches, and menstrual cramps; Control arthritis discomforts.

3. Relieve acute and chronic pain.

4. It has the same effect on the body as aspirin without any of the side effects.

5. It is an anti-inflammatory, a fever reducer, an analgesic, an anti-rheumatic, and an astringent. Specifically, it helps to relieve headaches.

Application

1.Anti-inflammatory, anti-rheumatic,

2.Reduce a fever,

3.Use as an analgesic and astringent,

4.Relieve headache,

5.Ease pain caused by rheumatism, arthritis, and carpal tunnel syndrome.

Carbohydrates Lecture II Highlights
1.Linking together of more than one sugar residues creates higher order saccharides – disaccharides, trisaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides.
2. Most of the linkages in higher order saccharides involve glycosidic bonds.
3. Disaccharides include sucrose, lactose, and maltose.
4. Sucrose is a non-reducing sugar, whereas lactose is a reducing sugar.
5. Oligosaccharides are components of glycoproteins.
6. The most common polysaccharides include glycogen, cellulose, starch, chitin.
7. Polysaccharides can be homopolymers or heteropolymers. Homopolymers include glycogen, cellulose, amylose, amylopectin, and chitin.
8. Glycogen is an animal energy storage polysaccharide, amylopectin and amylose combine to form starch, which is a plant energy storage polysaccharide, cellulose is a plant structural polysaccharide, and chitin is a component of insect exoskeletons.
9. The enzyme cellulase is required to digest the beta 1-4 bonds of cellulose. Ruminants and ungulates contain the bacterium that makes that enzyme.
10. Glycosaminoglycans are polysaccharides that contain either N-acetylgalactosamine or N-acetylglucosamine. They are polyanionic and have interesting chemical properties. Examples include chondroitin sulfates and keratan sulfates of connective tissue, dermatan sulfates, heparin, hyaluronic acid, and others.
11. Proteoglycans are complexes of proteins and glycosaminoglycans that form feathery structures.
12. Glycoproteins consist of a protein linked to an oligosaccharide, usually via an ‘N’ or an ‘O’ linkage. N linkages occur through asparagine of the protein. O linkages occur across serine or threonine of the protein.
13. Oligosaccharides on proteins and lipids have functions in cellular identity and can be recognized and bound by immunoglobulins.
14. Oligosaccharides on the surface of cells help give them their identity. A,B, and O blood group antigens give rise to the various blood types and these arise from carbohydrates on their cell surfaces.
15. Transplanted organs suffer rejection when the new organ has a different oligosaccharide pattern than the organ the recipient originally had. This encourages the immune system to attack it as foreign.
16. All N-linked glycoproteins have the same core of five carbohydrate residues.
17. N-linked glycoproteins have glycosylation (addition of carbohydrate residues) occurring in the endoplamic reticulum and Golgi complex of the cell. O-linked glycoproteins have glycosylation occuring only in the Golgi complex.
18. Movement of modified proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi complex allows for additional carbohydrate modifications to occur, followed by targeting to 1) the cell membrane, 2) release from the cell, or 3) the lysosome.
19. Two terms that you should be aware of are Haworth structures and Fischer projections. Haworth structures refer to the ring forms of sugars. The straight chain forms are referred to as Fischer projections.
20. Oligosaccharides destined to be linked to proteins to make glycoproteins are “built” on dolichol phosphate on the outer portion of the endoplasmic reticulum and then this “flips” to the inside for attachment.
21. Specific carbohydrate residues on the surface glycoproteins of blood cells are binding targets for hemagluttanin proteins on the surface of flu viruses. To exit a cell, the virus must cleave the sialic acid off with a neuraminidase enzyme. Anti-flu drugs like tamiflu act by inhibiting the action of the neuraminidase.

Signaling Highlights
1. Signaling is essential for cells in multicellular organisms to communicate with each other.
2. To do so, cells use first messengers (usually hormones), such as epinephrine (adrenalin), insulin, or epidermal growth factor.
3. Upon binding to a specific receptor on a target cell, the first messenger elicits a response that results in production of a second messenger inside of the target cell. Second messengers include cAMP, cGMP, calcium, diacylglycerol, PIP3, and others.

The way you look and feel is based on your genetics and primarily your HORMONE levels.

Unfortunately as we age, your anti-aging “youth” hormones decline. For men, this is primarily your testosterone levels.

The bad news is that your testosterone starts dropping as early as your mid 20’s

By age 40, you’re barely producing 50% of your testosterone… which means (1):

Lower testosterone
Decrease sex drive & libido
Smaller & weaker muscles.
More belly fat
Increase in health problems — cholesterol, blood pressure, blood sugar, joint pain, memory loss, etc.

However, the good news is that you can slow down and quickly REVERSE all of this naturally, by utilizing the correct form and dosage of Stinging Nettle Extract
What Is It

Stinging nettle is a plant that’s been used medicinally for hundreds of years, dating back as far as Ancient Greece.

It has many documented health benefits:
Anti-inflammatory (5)
Allergy relief (4)
Decreasing an enlarged prostate (2)
Increasing testosterone, sex drive and libido – which is today’s topic. (7)

How Does It Work
Testosterone is the primary hormone that controls your sex drive – in both men and women.

And there are two main forms:

Total Testosterone – think of this like your “gross income”. The money your earn before expenses, taxes, etc.

Free Testosterone – this is “unbound” and free to do work in your body. This is like your “net income” – the money you take home and KEEP.

Stinging nettle helps increase the percentage of your “free” circulating testosterone and thus, you get all the MAIN BENEFITS.

Warnings
Unfortunately, there are some “warnings” you should know about before using this ingredient.

Problem #1 – Extract Only
Stinging Nettle “root” or “powder” form is worthless. You have to take the clinically proven EXTRACT (95%) to see the real benefits.(3)

This costs more. This is why most products won’t work, because they use the cheap, ineffective “dead” root/powder.

Problem #2 – Your Body Adapts & It Stops Working
The second problem is your body will adapt to Stinging Nettle’s benefits by converting testosterone to “negative” hormones such as estrogen and DHT.

The estrogen will make you fat… And the DHT will make you bald.

Best Solution For You

So your goal is to use the 95% extract at the proper clinically proven dosage, along with other key ingredient — herbs, vitamins and minerals which will help

Optimize Stinging Nettle’s benefits
Maximize your total and free testosterone levels.
Minimize your “negative” estrogen and DHT levels
