Has an anti-inflammatory effect Treats chronic lung, and ear, nose and throat disorders Digests scar tissue and speeds healing response Addresses sinusitis, sprains, strains, edema, postoperative inflammation, carpal tunnel syndrome, breast engorgement, (fibrocystic breast disease) venous inflammatory disease, asthma, cardiovascular disease, inflammatory pain conditions, leg ulcers, chronic headaches 180 Capsules Health Concerns Serramend – Product Description Serramend contains serratiopeptidase also known as serrapeptase; a naturally occurring proteolytic enzyme that has been used clinically in Europe and Asia for over thirty years. It has been well tested and shown efficacy for many conditions including traumatic injury, post operative inflammation, ear, nose and throat conditions, carpal tunnel syndrome, breast engorgement, and venous disease. It has also been promoted for the treatment of inflammatory pain conditions and cardiovascular diseases. In patients with chronic airway disease treatment with 30mg per day of serrapeptase for four weeks resulted in changes in sputum. Coughing and expectoration frequency were significantly decreased. Serrapeptase has also been used to treat chronic sinusitis at a serving of 30mg per day for four weeks leading to reduced sputum viscosity and improved quality of life. In several treatment centers with 193 patients, suffering from inflammatory ear, nose and throat conditions, treatment was compared with a placebo for seven to eight days. Compared with placebo, serrapeptase produced a more rapid response researchers concluded that the enzyme treatment produced anti-edemic, and fibrinolytic activity. The same serving was used in a 174 patient study of clients having surgery to correct buccal membrane swelling, patients in the treatment group demonstrated significantly less swelling compared with the placebo group. Another surgical study showed a reduction in the amount of postoperative swelling. Patients who received serrapeptase experience a 50 percent decrease in swelling in the third day following ankle surgery. Patients treated with standard measures (leg elevation, bed rest, ice) had no reductions in swelling. In treating carpal tunnel syndrome, 10mg twice daily for six weeks, led to significant clinical improvement in 65 percent of the patients. Results were confirmed via nerve-conduction studies. In a group of seventy women with cystic breast disease, 85.7 percent of the patients taking the enzyme had moderate to marked improvement. Serrapeptase has also been clinically studied and shown effective for the treatment of chronic bronchitis and venous inflammatory disease, and improving the effects of the antibiotics ofloxacin, cephalexin, and cefotiam. A pioneer in complementary medicine, Hans Nieper, MD used serrapeptase extensively for occluded arteries particularly when surgeons were reluctant to operate. He reported that many of his patients have shown significant improved blood flow through their previously constricted arteries as confirmed by ultrasound. He typically used the enzyme for at least six months to eighteen months. Several research groups have reported that serrapeptase/serratiopeptidase (thereafter Serramend™) is well absorbed orally when using enterically coated capsules or capsules. It is processed in the laboratory, although initially it was found in the silkworm intestine. By dissolving the silkworm’s protective cocoon, the moth is ready to fly away. Ingredients Serratiopeptidase 20mg of serratiopeptidase per capsule (not less than 2,000 units per mg) derived from L Serratia E15 Suggested Use 1 capsule TID between meals Contraindications: Serramend is not recommended during pregnancy. Caution should be applied if patients are on anti-coagulant drugs such as Coumadin, or have gastrointestinal ulcers. Some individuals report diarrhea.

Benefits Traditional Chinese Medicine Functions: Disperses stagnant Qi Purges gallbladder heat Intestinal Astringent Aloe 22 treats intestinal parasites and other intestinal diseases. The formula balances dispersing, eliminative forces with contracting and building forces, thus it is useful for a broad range of applications. The black walnut (juglans nigra), is a native tree of North America. Black walnuts are smaller, harder, and more pungent than the English walnuts sold in grocery stores. The hulls without the meaty kernels inside are used in herbal medicine. Black walnut trees exude a sap that discourages growth of competing plants over their roots. Black walnut hulls contain juglone, a chemical that is antibacterial, antiviral, antiparasitic, and a fungicide. The hulls also contain tannins, iodine, vitamin C and zinc. Tannins act as a defense mechanism in plants against pathogens. The antihelmintic properties of tannins have been shown in scientific studies. Tannins are described to be antibacterial, and anti-diarrheic. Iodine is widely used as an antiseptic in medicine. It works by attaching itself to the pathogenic bacteria and thereby killing them. Cardamom (sha ren) treats abdominal pain and distension, and relieves intestinal spasms. It controls diarrhea caused by infection, but also treats constipation due to weak intestinal function. Astringent herbs such as mume (wu mei), terminalia (he zi), pomegranate (shi liu pi), nutmeg (rou dou kou), rubia (qian cao gen) treat diarrhea caused by infections, regulate intestinal secretions, and treat ulcers of the intestinal mucosa. Anthelmintics such as quisqualis (shi jun zi), omphalia (lei wan), torreya (fei zi), ulmus (wu yi), zanthoxylum (chuan jiao), and aloe vera (luhui) attack parasites in the bowels. Qi tonics such as codonopsis (dang shen), white atractylodes (bai zhu), and licorice (gan cao), and digestive herbs such as ginger (gan jiang) enhance immunityand improve absorption of nutrients.

Health Concerns Channel Flow® $31.85
Channel Flow is a natural herbal formula that has been shown to be equally effective at pain-relief as NSAIDs, ibuprofen, and aspirin without the negative side effects. The long term administration of NSAIDs, ibuprofen, and aspirin at regular adult dosages is deemed unsafe for most patients due to danger to the heart, kidneys and gastrointestinal tract. Opiates are contraindicated long term because they are addictive. Although many doctors prescribe Tylenol, it can be dangerous to the liver especially in high dosages. Gastrointestinal effects include acute biliary pain, cholestasis, nausea and vomiting. The long term safety of Tylenol has not been established. Because herbal formulas made in China are often adulterated with unsafe analgesics, Health Concerns wanted to provide a safe, consistent and effective formula manufactured here in the United States.

Traditionally it is used for dysmenorrhea and arthritic pain. It increases local circulation of blood and has a warming effect. Its functions are to nourish, tonify, and invigorate the blood. Tang kuei, with salvia (dan shen) and myrrh (mo yao), alleviates pain due to blood stagnation in the extremities. White peony (bai shao) alleviates pain, spasms, and cramping. Cinnamon twig (gui zhi) was chosen for the specific effect of bringing the herbs to the surface of the body and to promote circulation of blood. The traditional functions include warming the channels. It has shown analgesic effects according to Western research. Salvia (dan shen) was chosen for its specific effect of relieving menstrual pain. Its traditional functions include invigorating blood and removing blood stasis and heat. According to Western research, salvia increases microcirculation of blood flow and has a sedative effect. Myrrh and frankincense are included for their functions in relieving pain. Frankincense (ru xiang) invigorates the blood and promotes movement of Qi. It alleviates pain and reduces swelling.
