In the 16th century, Paracelsus introduced the concept of the tartaric diseases to explain how stones are formed in the human body by the precipitation of substances from body fluids, analogous to the deposition of tartar in wine casks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday we know that in industrialized countries more than 80% of gallstones consist mainly of cholesterol, the prevalence of gallstones is about 10%, and in people between 40 and 50 years of age the 5-year incidence is about 3%.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBile, Defined Bile functions as the body’s “detergent” emulsification and absorption of lipids, critical for fat digestion and assimilation. Bile is produced by the liver, and is temporarily stored in the gall bladder. Bile is released into the small intestine in response to hormones, such as cholecystokinin, when fat enters the intestine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBile consists of a mixture of bile salts, bile acids, cholesterol, bilirubin and phospholipids. The ratio of individual lipids are critical to maintain a stable micellar concentration. The molar ratios are typically 5:15:80 for cholesterol\/ phosphatidylcholine\/bile salts. If the bile concentration becomes too high, cholesterol will precipitate and gallstones will form in the gall bladder, a condition known as cholelithiasis.1\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBile Formation Bile salts and acids represent oxidized derivatives of cholesterol. About 80% of the cholesterol in the body will eventually be disposed of as cholic acid. The primary bile acids, cholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid, possess a carboxylic acid side chain which confers hydrophilic properties to the lipophilic sterol ring and creates detergent-like molecules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe liver attaches taurine and glycine to bile acids to create bile salts (taurocholate or taurochenodeoxycholate and glycocholate or glycodeoxycholate, respectively). Bacterial enzymes in the colon can convert these to secondary bile acids, deoxycholate and lithocholate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBile and Digestion Bile is needed for efficient uptake of oily nutrients (fats). When bile acids and bile salts first encounter ingested fats, they act as emulsifiers to create suspensions which can be broken down enzymatically. The process involves several important steps; sequentially indicated as:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1. The combined action of bile salts and pancreatic lipase initiates hydrolysis of triglycerides to free fatty acids and diglycerides, resulting in the formation of emulsions containing other lipid-soluble nutrients, including vitamins and carotenoids. The particle size of these emulsions ranges from 200 to 5,000 nm in diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2. Lipase is then able to hydrolyze both di-and triglycerides to monoglycerides and free fatty acids. Lipase requires a smaller protein called colipase, another pancreatic product, to bind to triglycerides and activate the lipase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3. Upon further release of bile salts, the lipid aggregates become smaller, from 3 to 10 nm in diameter. The normal endpoint of triglyceride digestion is a product containing 70% free fatty acid anions, 25% beta monoglycerides and 5% cholesterol. The micelles are then taken up by the epithelial cells of the brush border membrane via passive diffusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter absorption, the fate of fatty acids depends upon their sizes. Medium chain fatty acids, with less than 10-12 carbons, pass directly from the mucosal cells into the portal blood and bind to serum albumin. Longer chain fatty acid anions are re-esterified with beta monoglycerides in the smooth endoplasmic reticulum to reform triglycerides. The newly synthesized triglycerides are complexed with apoproteins, cholesterol and phospholipids, to produce particles called chylomicrons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChylomicrons are released from mucosal cells by exocytosis and enter the lymph, rather than entering the blood- stream directly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnterohepatic Circulation Bile salts do not cross the mucosal barrier into the lymphatic system but rather they are reabsorbed as micelles in the lower region of the small intestine. Most of the bile salts released into the intestine are reabsorbed in the lower ileum where bacteria can reduce free bile acids to lithocholate and deoxycholate. The absorbed bile acids and salts are transported via the portal vein to the liver as complexes with serum albumin. The liver efficiently extracts them, conjugates them with amino acids and again secretes them as bile, which is returned to the gall bladder to continue to aid digestion. Bile salts are recirculated 2-3 times through the liver with each meal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBetaine Beets are a concentrated source of Betaine, which functions in the methylation of homocysteine, converting it into methionine and dimethylglycine. An elevated level of homocysteine, termed homocysteinemia, is a risk factor for cardiovascular complications. Dimethylglycine, in turn, functions as a methyl donor, thus aiding in both the detoxification and immune pathways. Betaine is often referred to as a “lipotropic factor” as it assists the liver in the processing of fats. Studies with betaine have correlated its use with liver protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor example in one study, subjects exposed to carbon tetrachlo- ride (CCl4), were followed with an oral treatment of betaine. They were observed to have a significant reduction in liver necrosis, which was attributed to betaine use. In another study, following CCl4 injection in test animals, supplemental betaine was observed to reduce liver triglycerides as well as centrilobular hepatic lipidosis.3\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFiber and the Binding of Bile Components Certain kinds of dietary fiber bind bile salts. Examples include pectin (found in fruits and berries), hemicelluloses (found in cereal grains), and certain types of fiber that occur in legumes. When the diet is rich in partially soluble fiber, more bile is excreted (not reabsorbed). As a consequence, blood cholesterol levels may be reduced to account for more bile salt formation, consequently slowing the development of atherosclerosis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNutritional Support of Bile Formation Bile:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBile salts, along with other components, including cholesterol, electrolytes and water are stored in the gallbladder. Bile salts act as an enzyme aide, and serve to enhance the absorption of fatty acids and some fat-soluble vitamins. Bile also serves as a fat emulsifier, thus increasing the surface area of the fat, and allowing it to become water-soluble. Thus bile aids aide in the absorption of fatty acids and cholesterol via the formation of micelles. The micelles, soluble in chime, are then easily absorbed by epithelial cells. Bile also serves in a protective mechanism, functioning to maintain the intestinal barrier against invading microorganisms.4, 5\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePancrelipase. (Pancreatic lipase) Pancrelipase functions in the hydrolysis of triacylglycerol in the presence of bile salts, thus accordingly functions in the absorption of dietary fats and lipids. Accordingly, in the presence of gastric lipase, triacylglycerol is hydrolyzed to monoglycerides and free fatty acids. Pancrelipase preparations have been shown to reduce fecal fat, indicating an improvement in the fat digestive process with the use of Pancrelipase.6, 7 Taurine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTaurine is a highly charged cysteine derivative, synthesized in vivo from the essential amino acid methionine. When conjugated to bile acids, an increased polarity of the bile acid results, thus increasing its amphipathic (detergent-like) properties. In one study dietary taurine was demonstrated to enhance the degradation of cholesterol and subsequent excretion via bile acids.8 In animal studies supplementary taurine was demonstrated to both increase serum HDL, and significantly decrease total cholesterol.9\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditionally, a significant increase in the concentration of fecal total bile acids has been observed with taurine supplementation.10 The action of taurine on serum cholesterol was attributed to the facilitation of hepatic cholesterol 7- alpha-hydroxylase activity.11\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVitamin C. The enzyme noted above, cholesterol 7-alpha-hydroxylase, is the enzyme responsible for the initial step in the catabolism of cholesterol to conjugated bile acids. This enzyme is a vitamin C dependent enzyme. In studies supplemental vitamin C was shown to reduce total plasma cholesterol and triglycerides, which was correlated to a marked modification in apolipoprotein patterns.12, 13\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn patients with gallstones, vitamin C was shown to influence the environment of the gallbladder, resulting in a higher concentration of phospholipids, along with a changed ratio of bile acids, indicating an influence of vitamin C on the formation of gallstones.14 Additionally, in women, an inverse correlation between serum ascorbic acid and the prevalence of both clinical and asymptomatic gallbladder symptomology was observed.15\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eReferences 1.

Alpha linolenic acid (18:3n- 3), ALA, is the parent compound of all long chain N-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, including eicosapentaenoic acid (22:5n-3, EPA) and decosahexaenoic acid (22:6n-3 DHA).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eALA possesses 18 carbon atoms and 3 double bonds, hence the chemical name, 9,12,15, octadecatrienoic acid. Function of N-3 Fatty Acids Diets enriched in alpha linolenic acid, such as the Mediterranean diet, have been the subject of nutrition and medical research1 and beneficial effects note.2 Polyunsaturated fatty acids perform multiple functions. They are incorporated into membrane lipids to establish fluidity and membrane integrity. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eAs precursors of prostaglandins, thromboxanes and leukotrienes, polyunsaturates are essential to regulating most physiologic functions, including inflammation, platelet aggregation, pain and others.

For example, EPA leads to PGE3, a prostaglandin with 3 double bonds in its side chain. EPA is \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003ealso converted to Thromboxane TX3. Both of these eicosanoids are believed to counterbalance the proinflammatory eicosanoids, such as PGE2 and Thromboxane TX4, formed from N-6 fatty acids.3, 8\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eFor example, PGE3 and PGI3 prevent platelets from sticking and aggregating and they balance the parasympathetic nervous system. In contrast, PGE2 and Thromboxane TX4 from N-6 fatty acids increase the inflammatory response and respond to the sympathetic nervous system. Alpha linolenic acid has been found to support proper platelet function4 and normal serum cholesterol levels.5 Low levels of ALA in fat tissue are associated with decreased glucose tolerance.6 When elderly patients deficient in N-3 fatty acids were supplemented with pure ALA, lymphocytic response to mitogens improved.7 Mice fed a diet enriched in alpha linolenic acid increased the activity of cytotoxic T-cells.8\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eFlax seed oil may help balance joint health.9 N-3 fatty acids also play a role in the development and function of the brain and retina.10 N-3 fatty acids helps normalize immune functioning by inhibiting 5-lipoxygenase activity and reducing platelet-derived activity factor.11\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003e N-3 Fatty Acids in the Diet Americans presently consume about 18% of the amount of N-3 fatty acids available in the diet a century ago.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eIt has been estimated that adults require 800 - 1,100 mg of ALA for health.12 However, no RDA has been established for N-3 essential fatty acids. The consumption of omega-3 fatty acids is relatively low in the typical Western diet compared to omega-6 fatty acids. N-6 and N-3 fatty acids compete for an enzyme involved in fatty acid elongation and desaturation, eicosanoid production and incorporation into membrane lipids. A key enzyme in this conversion is the rate-limiting step catalyzed by 6-desaturase. Excessive linoleic acid slows the desaturation of ALA.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eFactors correlated with decreased delta 6-desaturation include diabetes; stress-related hormones; deficiencies of zinc and vitamin B6; excessive saturated fatty acids; trans fatty acids and cholesterol and possibly aging and high alcohol consumption.13 In vitro studies link viral infections, radiation and chemical carcinogens to 6-desaturase inhibition.14 In lab animals there is an age-related decline in delta 6- desaturase.15 Typical dietary sources of ALA are plant oils, especially flax-seed oil. DHA and EPA are most often concentrated in the fat of oily, cold water fish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eFlax seed as a Supplemental Source of N-3 Fatty Acids Flax seed oil represents one of the richest sources of ALA.

Immediate hypersensitivity represents a rapid over-reaction of the immune system, often within minutes after exposure to the problem antigen.

Thus, it represents an elaborate, finely tuned defense system to destroy microorganisms, cancer cells, or other invasive materials. However, an imbalanced immune system can attack the body’s own tissues (auto-immune conditions) and lead to cumulative oxidative stress. \\nThe immune system consists of two branches, cellular immunity and humoral immunity. The first depends upon the active participation of multiple cell types, including a variety of phagocytic cells, to engulf invaders. Lymphocytes include highly specialized T cells, which proliferate and differentiate in the thymus gland. In a typical scenario, macrophages process ingested antigens and display recognition fragments on their surfaces. T helper cells acting as generals, read these antigens and in turn stimulate the production of T killer cells via lymphokines such as IL-2 and gamma interferon. Mast cells are a type of T cell embedded in tissues to fight localized infection. When they contact foreign materials, mast cells destroy them. In the process, they release histamine and other agents that cause edema, increase blood vessel permeability and recruit neutrophils to the site of inflammation. \\nHumoral immunity pertains to proteins of the blood and lymph. This aspect of the immune system relies on B cells which mature to plasma cells that secrete specific antibodies and complement proteins to fight infections. Complement also triggers localized inflammation. T helper cells regulate the production and maturation of B cells through lymphokines. T suppressor cells gear down the immune response and thus are critical in allergy attacks and autoimmune conditions. \\nImmunity is a hallmark of the immune system. Recovery from an invader renders the individual immune to a subsequent attack. The underlying mechanism involves memory T cells and memory B cells. These memory cells multiply rapidly when they reencounter the stimulating antigen. \\nAllergies An allergic response involves both cellular and humoral mechanisms. In contrast, other types of sensitivities to foods, such as lactose intolerance or sulfite sensitivity, do not employ the immune system. Allergic responses can be generally classified as immediate or delayed hypersensitivities. Immediate hypersensitivity represents a rapid over-reaction of the immune system, often within minutes after exposure to the problem antigen. Particularly mast cells release histamine, leukotrienes and other stimuli that evoke swelling, hives, itchiness, copious mucus secretion and muscle spasm of the GI tract and bronchioles. The reaction is mediated by IgE antibodies. Anaphylactic shock results from an immediate hypersensitive allergic reaction affecting the whole body. Depending on how food allergy is defined, estimates of the prevalence range from 2% to 25% of the US population. Immediate allergic reactions account for only a small fraction of food allergies. Typical food allergies frequently involve IgG antibodies, and symptoms develop within hours or days after contact with a problematic food. Faulty digestion and increased gut permeability are often a root cause of multiple food allergies, because food allergens that are normally excluded, cross the intestinal barrier and enter the bloodstream. The resulting immune complexes, if not cleared rapidly, can lodge in various organs and tissues where they can trigger inflammatory conditions. Food allergies have been linked to a range of auto immune conditions, rheumatoid arthritis, for example.1 \\nDetecting food allergies can be perplexing. The delay between ingesting a specific food and the development of sometimes vague symptoms often masks food allergy reactions. The most frequent symptom is fatigue. Other symptoms include delayed hypersensitivity, irritability, achy joints, blood sugar dysregulation, PMS-like symptoms, puffy eyes with dark circles and postnasal drip. Food allergies can cause asthma when they affect the respiratory tract; headache and insomnia when they affect the nervous system; and indigestion, irritable colon, \\nconstipation or diarrhea when they affect the GI tract. A variety of laboratory tests to detect IgE and IgG subclasses responsive to particular antigens have been developed. These have varying degrees of reliability. \\nBotanical Support of the Immune System A variety of botanical preparations have been reported as useful nutritional adjuncts for protocols designed to help normalize immune processes: \\nJuglans nigra . Originating in Asia, Juglans nigra has a history of use in Greek and Roman traditions. It is said to be bitter, pungent, warm with cooling potential and is used with intestinal Qi stagnation.2 Black walnut leaf supports the immune system and normal tissue repair processes. \\nOlea europaea . Buds and leaves of olive trees contain oleuropein, a phenolic glycoside, and rutin, luteolin and hesperidin - flavonoid glycosides.3 The latter flavonoids possess well-defined antioxidant properties and affect aspects of the vascular system as well as the immune system. Oleuropein is the bitter principle of green olives. It can effectively prevent the oxidation of LDL in vitro4. Antimicrobial properties of oleuropein have been reported, perhaps explaining the resistance of olive tree to microbial overgrowth.5 \\nHydrangea arborescens . Contains thunberginols and hydrangenols which have been extensively studied by Japanese investigators. This family of compounds was shown to inhibit the release of histamine from rat mast cells and histamine-induced contraction of isolated guinea pig trachea.6 \\nTHESE STATEMENTS HAVE NOT BEEN EVALUATED BY THE FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION. THIS PRODUCT IS  NOT INTENDED TO DIAGNOSE, TREAT, CURE, OR PREVENT ANY DISEASE. \\nPRODUCT INFORMATION Histoplex ® is available in bottles of 90 capsules. \\nProduct Adjuncts: Bio-Immunozyme Forte TM , IPS ® . \\nThunberginol A administered to rats and mice normalized various aspects of immune function.7 \\nHesperidin . The rutinoside of hesperitin. Hesperidin is the predominant flavonoid in lemons and sweet oranges. In orange, lemon, and grapefruit skins, hesperidin and hesperitin are mainly responsible for the antioxidant activity of methanolic extracts.8 It seems also to have a membrane- stabilizing effect.9 Effects in supporting the immune system have been reported.10 \\nAndrographis paniculata \\n(Kalmegh). Folk traditions in India use this herb to support functions of the gastrointestinal tract, reduce flatulence, improve appetite and normalize liver function. Pretreatment of rats with extracts of this plant prevented carbon tetrachloride induced liver damage.11 Leaf extracts and isolated andrographolide inhibited lipid peroxidation due to exposure to carbon tetrachloride.12 \\nCoriolus versicolor . Polysaccharide extracts of this mushroom are composed mainly of beta 1,4 glucan, together with some protein. This material has been in use in Japan, where it has been reported to enhance normal functioning of the immune system. For example, it improved T cell response in gut associated lymphoid tissue in mice.13 In rats, this extract increased B cells. The production of T cells increased in spleen and Peyer’s patches, but not thymus.14 These mushroom polysaccharide extracts are associated with superoxide dismutase activity.15 \\nPicrorrhiza kurroa . Roots and rhizomes contain a mixture of flavonoids, including glycosides, piroside and kutkoside, picrorhizin, and the phenolic ether, apocynin. Apocynin was shown to inhibit the neutrophil oxidative burst in vitro.16 Apocynin inhibited the formation of thromboxane A2, while stimulating the release of prostaglandins by isolated guinea pig pulmonary macrophages.17 Picrorrhiza abstracts were found to support normal of T and B cell function using rodent model systems.18 \\nLigsuticum porteri . The Ligsuticum family contains a number of compounds with aromatic character. Osha has long been used in folk traditions in Southwestern United States and Northern and Central Mexico.19, 20 \\nOther Nutritional Support Dimethylglycine . Methyl donor. When lymphocytes were isolated from rabbits fed dimethylglycine and inoculated with viral or \\nbacterial vaccines, they revealed higher proliferation rates than obtained from control animals. In addition, lymphocytes from immunized animals fed dimethylglycine showed an increased rate of DNA synthesis than controls.21 \\nCalcium borogluconate . Boron has a role in calcium and magnesium metabolism, and possibly vitamin D.22 Boronate - containing polymer stimulated T cells in vitro.23 \\nReferences \\n1. Kjeldsen-Kragh J et al.
