The Antioxidant Miracle- Put Lipoic Acid, Pycnogenol, and Vitamins E and C to Work for You

Cover of ISBN 0471353116The Antioxidant Miracle
Put Lipoic Acid, Pycnogenol, and Vitamins E and C to Work for You:
Book by Lester Packer and Carol Colman. Wiley 256 pages Paperback Published 1999-12-10. Description: A pill that strengthens your heart, sharpens your mind, keeps your body young, extends your life, prevents cancer, and keeps your skin wrinkle-free? Sounds like a joke or a dream, doesn't it? According to molecular cell biologist Lester Packer, these pills exist--they are antioxidants. "Literally thousands of studies have confirmed that antioxidants can help prevent numerous diseases and will not only enhance life, but in all probability extend life," he writes. In The Antioxidant Miracle, he describes breakthroughs in antioxidant research and prescribes the Packer Plan: his "state-of-the-art antioxidant supplement, diet, and skin-care regimen."

According to Packer, five antioxidants "network" in our bodies with "special powers" that slow aging and fight disease: Vitamins C and E, glutathione, lipoic acid, and Coenzyme Q10. The first two are obtained through food, the others are produced by the body, but these levels decline as we age, so we need to supplement. Packer describes the benefits and actions of these special antioxidants and also recommends flavonoids such as ginkgo biloba and pycnogenol (made from the bark of pine trees), a number of carotenoids, selenium, and a variety of foods high in antioxidants. He spells out exactly what supplements you need and how much, with special modifications for smokers, diabetics, menopausal women, athletes, and people at high risk of cancer or cardiovascular disease. The book is not easy reading: lots of scientific explanations and study descriptions. Description: Imagine there was an easy way you could keep your heart strong, your mind sharp, and your body youthful. Imagine this program could keep you young, improve your sex life, prevent cancer and heart disease, and keep your skin supple and wrinkle-free. And perhaps best of all, imagine this was something readily available at your local drugstore or natural food store. These and other benefits are the miraculous results of antioxidants. Lester Packer is the world's foremost authority on these natural healers. In The Antioxidant Miracle, he explains for the first time exactly how you can design a practical, personalized antioxidant program for disease prevention and optimal wellness.

The Antioxidant Miracle is the first popular book to reveal the full range of healing benefits of lipoic acid, the most versatile and powerful antioxidant and nature's secret weapon in treating heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and liver disease. This breakthrough book also unveils the astonishing strength of the antioxidant network, the combination of vitamin E, vitamin C, lipoic acid, Co Q10, and glutathione that-when taken together in the proper amounts-battles disease and aging far more aggressively than supplements taken individually.

After an accessible explanation of the science behind antioxidants, Packer and bestselling health writer Carol Colman show you how to develop your own state-of-the-art supplement regimen designed to keep your body strong, your brain at full speed, and your antioxidant network working at its peak. They include specialized supplement programs for smokers, diabetics, people with a family history of cancer or heart disease, menopausal women, athletes, and picky eaters. You'll find out how to incorporate antioxidant-rich foods easily into your diet and develop your own plan for smooth, healthy, young looking skin. And you'll discover the benefits of "booster" antioxidants-bioflavonoids like ginkgo biloba and Pycnogenol-and others like beta carotene and selenium.

The Antioxidant Miracle can enhance and extend your life. Make the antioxidant miracle work for you!

      • Review:: 'Changed My Life I first read this book six years ago and have been following the Antioxidant Daily Cocktail since then. I bought it again in Sept. 2007 to review its suggestions. I'm 69 years old and have no aches and pains of any sort and attribute it to this book. Recently had a heart scan and no plaque was found - a "0" reading which is unusual for a person of my age.
      • Review:: 'Great Book - a clear explanation of a difficult topic This is a great book giving a clear and detailed explanation of one aspect (antioxidants) of an emerging new approach to health care - i.e. real prevention and healthy aging by leveraging the body's own miraculous capabilities. Meanwhile, mainstream medicine continues to be enamored with a different kind of miracle: e.g. triple-bypass surgery and organ transplants. Even so-called preventative health care is often no more than early detection and uses expensive tests. Follow the money. You can't patent naturally occurring substances. This sentence on p35-36 sums it all up: "I believe that the practice of medicine in the 21st century will focus less on curing diseases from the outside with drugs that are foreign to our bodies and more on empowering the body from within by boosting the disease-fighting powers of the antioxidant network." Lester Packer is a world-renowned researcher with hundreds of scientific publications. He explains what free radicals are and how they wreak havoc in the body. For example, they speed up aging, cause or exacerbate heart disease, chronic inflammation, strokes, cataracts, and cancer to name a few. Free radicals cause harm when combined with oxygen, a process called oxidation. Oxidation is all around us. It causes rust, the browning of food, and is why old windshield wipers leave streaks and need to be replaced. An anti-oxidant is something that neutralizes a free radical and thus limiting oxidation damage. Oh by the way, if you a smoker, you should know that one puff of a cigarette contains billions of free radicals that can overwhelm your body's antioxidant network. Most of the diseases associated with smoking are alleviated by a strong antioxidant network. He explains that there are many kinds of antioxidants, typically working individually. However there is a network of special antioxidants that work together synergistically. The trouble with most antioxidants is that when they neutralize a free radical, they lose their ability to neutralize another one. An antioxidant is recycled when it is again made able to neutralize a free radical. The antioxidant network consists of 5 antioxidants that are able to recycle each other. They are: vitamins C and E, glutathione, coenzyme Q10 and lipoic acid. Full chapters are devoted to each of these five network antioxidants. After that, other important antioxidants are considered that interact with some of the network antioxidants (network boosters). Pycogenol and ginkgo biloba are important examples of "flavenoids" a group of more than 4000 individual antioxidant compounds found in plants. Another chapter is devoted to the more controversial `carotenoids', which are natural pigments found both in plants and animals - with a good explanation of the beta carotene debate. Another chapter is devoted to surprising selenium, which has many benefits in trace amounts. The latter chapters review and summarize and suggest what to do with all this information. He tells what foods to eat to get the various antioxidants, and when to supplement with how much of what. The benefits of these antioxidants are now well documented, but little known in the mainstream. Most people never heard of `flavenoids' 'alpha lipoic acid" or `glutathione' but after reading this book you will want your them in your body. The benefits are wide-ranging and profound. For example, keeping your network of antioxidants healthy can prevent and treat a wide range of ailments, including aging, itself. Some of the many benefits include: * slowing down and even reversing the aging process * protecting your DNA from damage * turn off bad genes that would result in disease * strengthen your immune system * enhance memory & mental function * keep your skin youthful, A good antioxidation program can prevent or limit the impacts of: * many forms of cancers, especially prostate cancer * arthritis and other inflammation diseases * chronic fatigue syndrome * hepatitis C liver disease, * heart disease * diabetes * strokes * cataracts * gum disease * impotence These are not anecdotal claims, they are backed by decades of scientific study. There are around a hundred references to the scientific literature included in the book, for the interested reader. A good companion book to read is The Metabolic Plan: Stay Younger Longer, by Stephen Cherniske. It includes a condensed version of the material in The Antioxidant Miracle, in the broader context of outlining a plan for staying younger longer. Both books are about true preventive health care (vs. early detection and disease care) through healthy lifestyle that can reverse biological aging.
      • Review:: 'Amazing book This is really the Bible of Antioxidants and the way they protect us. The author is outstanding and certainly his research into this subject is incredible. This book is a must for those trying to slow down the aging process.
      • Review:: 'So you think you take the right dietary supplements! I was given the title of this book by a friend, who suggested I read it. I was recovering from surgery for breast cancer, and what I read in this book made me realise that I needed to change my diet supplements to include a regime of anti-oxidants, both to help protect myself from further bouts of cancer, and to increase my general health by giving my body the building blocks it needs to heal itself. The book was easy to read, and extremely well referenced.
      • Review:: 'Breakthrough Information This book truly made a great impact in my life. My husband and I are glad that we are taking the right path to a healthy lifestyle after reading Dr. Packer's book. We have been taking supplements that contains the optimum amount of antioxidants mentioned by Dr. Packer especially lipoic acid. Our health greatly improved most specially my husband who is already a candidate for diabetes. Now, we know the reason why many of our friends commented that we looked younger than our age and my husband lost so much weight but looked healthier and younger than ever. We realized now that the reason for this was because of the antioxidants present in our supplement. My husband usually experiences numbness. After taking supplements rich in lipoic acid, he no longer experiences it. His urine as well is often swarmed by ants. But this has stopped after taking supplements rich in antioxidants mentioned by Dr. Packer. Health is Wealth. This book will truly change the way you view your lifestyle. It will make you see things you have never seen before. Health is very important for us because my husband and I are business people and if our health fails us, we don't know what to do. We have two great kids who cries just the idea of us getting old. If your family and people you love matters to you, read this book and recommend that they read it also. This is the one of the greatest gifts you can give to yourself and your family.

Vitamin D- New Perspectives in Drawing (Themes)

Cover of ISBN 0714845450Vitamin D
New Perspectives in Drawing (Themes):
Book by Emma Dexter. Phaidon Press 352 pages Hardcover Published 2005-12-01. Description: Drawing has recently experienced a renewal of importance in the art world; in fact, it has rarely been as widely represented in the biennials, art fairs, and exhibitions as it is now. Similar in concept, scope and structure to Phaidon's successful volume Vitamin P, Vitamin D presents, in A to Z order, the work of 109 artists who have emerged internationally since 1990 using the medium of drawing. Whether representational or abstract, small or large in scale, using only one line or rich in colors and pattern, drawings have a highly descriptive and meticulously detailed quality that is being explored by an increasing number of contemporary artists. Extending beyond the traditional image associated with this medium, Vitamin D hopes to illustrate the complexity, variety, and relevance of the practice of drawing today.
      • Review:: 'Beautifully Done Book for Art Lovers As an artist myself, I have to first be aesthetically attracted to a book before I can look further, and the Vitamin series are truly stunning. In this edition, each of the numerous artists chosen get a two page spread, sometimes four. This spread included a lengthy blurb on the artist and images of their work. All I can do is highly recommend that you look at this book in person before buying it, and I think it will be nearly impossible to turn down after that. Great book to have in your collection!
      • Review:: 'Emperor's New Clothes Anyone who would call this art is either lacking an objective sensibility or has some measure of vested interest in the sales of this book. The "drawings" (lol) in this book are fine examples of why mainstream Americans no longer care about the fine arts. One reviewer actually used the word "refreshing" in describing the contents. Are you kidding me? Refreshing, perhaps, if I had only been exposed to blank pages my entire life. This is not art. This is the Emperor's New Clothes.
      • Review:: 'On reproductions Vitamin D is an outstanding publication of drawings from contemporary artists which shows great depth in both subjectivity and theme, the one overwhelming issue seems to be the quality of the reproductions within. Context gives us the reason for this.. in that these are works by CONTEMPORARY artists and as such have not been digitized as throughly as say the often if not OVER reproduced imagery of Leonardo or Michelangelo, so yes some of the reproductions are less stunning however they are more than adequate and what is more important, they are reproduced well enough to spark interest in seeing the original. Artwork can never truly be reproduced, you must experience the original to truly appreciate the pieces. However Vitamin D does what it was designed to, as did it's predecessor Vitamin P, giving a contemporary overview of works and the artists who create them which have yet to be studied. These books are history in the making and that alone gives them more merit than most art publications. This series is more than worth owning and will prove to be volumes you will return to again and again.
      • Review:: 'Great book! If you are interested in a wide range of edgy drawings..this book is terrific. It is inspiring, informative and current...not a "how-to" but a survey of all the wonderful and strange drawings being done today.
      • Review:: 'Collectable Vitamin D, is complete inside and out. The binding is terrific, the type, the torn paper edges, the layout, everything that went into designing this book was well thought out. Its not only fabulous, but a pleasure to look through. The artists chosen are all exceptionally talented, and each with a unique edge. Nevertheless, all work presented will be a definite point of reference for many many years to come, including the work by my own mentor,and teacher.
