ALLERGY
An allergy or Type I hypersensitivity is an immune malfunction whereby a person's body is hypersensitised to react immunologically to typically non-immunogenic substances. When a person is hypersensitised, these substances are known as allergens. The word allergy derives from the Greek words allos meaning "other" and ergon meaning "reaction" or "reactivity". Type I hypersensitivity is characterised by excessive activation of mast cells by immunoglobulin E resulting in a systemic inflammatory response that can result in symptoms as benign as a runny nose, to life-threatening anaphylactic shock and death.
Signs & Symptoms:
Allergy is characterised by a local or systemic inflammatory response to allergens. Local symptoms are:
Nose: swelling of the nasal mucosa (allergic rhinitis) - The distinctive behavior known as nasal salute, also known as allergy salute, is the habit of wiping of the nose in an upward direction due to itching.
Eyes: redness and itching of the conjunctiva (allergic conjunctivitis)
Airways: bronchoconstriction, wheezing and dyspnoea, sometimes outright attacks of asthma
Skin: various rashes, such as eczema, hives (urticaria) and contact dermatitis.
Systemic allergic response is also called anaphylaxis. Depending of the rate of severity, it can cause cutaneous reactions, bronchoconstriction, edema, hypotension, coma and even death.
Hay fever is one example of an exceedingly common minor allergy - large percentages of the population suffer from hayfever symptoms in response to airborne pollen. Asthmatics are often allergic to dust mites. Apart from ambient allergens, allergic reactions can be due to medications.

ANTIBACTERIAL
An antiseptic is a substance that prevents the growth and reproduction of various microorganisms (such as bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and viruses) on the external surfaces of the body. Some are true germicides, capable of destroying the bacteria, whilst others merely prevent or inhibit their growth. The objective of antiseptics is to reduce the possibility of sepsis, infection, or putrefaction by germs. Antibacterials have the same objective but only act against bacteria, preventing the growth or reproduction of bacteria within the body.
Signs & Symptoms : Potentially lowered immune system, prone to infections, general weakness.

ANTIBIOTIC
An antibiotic is a substance that kills or slows the growth of bacteria. They are relatively harmless to the host, and therefore can be used to treat infections. Unlike previous treatments for infections, which included poisons such as strychnine and arsenic, antibiotics were labelled "magic bullets": which targeted disease without harming the host. Antibiotics are not effective in viral, fungal and other nonbacterial infections, and individual antibiotics vary widely in their effectiveness on various types of bacteria. Antibiotics can be categorised based on their target specificity: 'narrow-spectrum' antibiotics target particular types of bacteria, such as Gram-negative or Gram-positive bacteria, while 'wide-spectrum' antibiotics affect a larger range of bacteria. The effectiveness of individual antibiotics varies with the location of the infection, the ability of the antibiotic to reach the site of infection, and the ability of the bacteria to resist or inactivate the antibiotic. Some antibiotics actually kill the bacteria (bactericidal), whereas others merely prevent the bacteria from multiplying (bacteriostatic).
Signs & Symptoms : Potentially lowered immune system, prone to infections, general weakness.

ANTI-INFLAMMATION
Inflammation is the first response of the immune system to infection or irritation and may be referred to as the innate cascade. Inflammation is characterised by the following quintet: redness (rubor), heat (calor), swelling (tumor), pain (dolor) and dysfunction of the organs involved (functio laesa). The outcome in a particular circumstance will be determined by the tissue in which the injury has occurred, and the injurious agent that is causing it. There are three possible results to inflammation:
Resolution: the complete reconstitution of damaged tissue, does not usually occur in the body.
Connective tissue scarring. Some 24 hours after inflammation in a wound first occurs, the wound healing response will commence. This response involves the formation of connective tissue to bridge the gap caused by injury, and the process of angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, to provide nutrients to the newly formed tissue. Often healing can not occur completely and a scar will form; for example after laceration to the skin, a connective tissue scar results which does not contain any specialised structures such as hair or sweat glands.
Signs & Symptoms : Swelling, redness, pus formation, general discomfort and organ malfunction in severe inflammation case affecting the organ/s.

ANTI-STRESS
Stress can directly and indirectly contribute to general or specific disorders of body and mind. Stress can have a major impact on the physical functioning of the human body. Such stress raises the level of adrenaline and corticosterone in the body, which in turn increases the heart rate, respiration, and blood pressure and puts more physical stress on bodily organs. Long-term stress can be a contributing factor in heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke and other illnesses. Anxiety, antagonism, tiredness, frustration, distress, overwork, pre-menstrual tension, over-focusing, confusion, mourning and fear could all come together in a general broadening of the meaning of the term 'stress.'
Signs & Symptoms : Physically and mentally irritable condition.

ANTI-VIRAL
Antivirals are a class of medication used specifically for treating viral infections. Like antibiotics, specific antivirals are used for specific viruses. Antivirals are one class of antimicrobials, a larger group which also includes antibiotics, anti-fungals and anti-parasitics. They are relatively harmless to the host, and therefore can be used to treat infections. Most of the antivirals now available are designed to help deal with HIV; herpesvirus, which are best known for causing cold sores but actually cover a wide range of diseases; and the hepatitis B and C viruses, which can cause liver cancer. Researchers are now working to extend the range of antivirals to other families of pathogens.
Signs & Symptoms : Potentially lowered immune system, prone to infections, general weakness.

ARTHRITIS
Arthritis is a group of conditions that affect the health of the bone joints in the body. Arthritic diseases include rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis, which are autoimmune diseases; septic arthritis, caused by joint infection; and the more common osteoarthritis, or degenerative joint disease. Arthritis can be caused from strains and injuries caused by repetitive motion, sports, overexertion, and falls. Unlike the autoimmune diseases, osteoarthritis largely affects older people and results from the degeneration of joint cartilage. Arthritic joints can be sensitive to weather changes. The increased sensitivity is thought to be caused by the affected joints developing extra nerve endings in an attempt to protect the joint from further damage.
Signs & Symptoms : All arthritis featured pain, which is generally worse in the morning and on initiating movement, and resolves in the course of time. In elderly people and children, the pain may not be the main feature, and the patient simply moves less (elderly) or refuse to use the affected limb (children).

CANCER
Cancer is a class of diseases characterized by uncontrolled division of cells and the ability of these cells to invade other tissues, either by direct growth into adjacent tissue (invasion) or by implantation into distant sites (metastasis). This unregulated growth is caused by damage to DNA, resulting in mutations to genes that control cell division. Several mutations may be required to transform a normal cell into a malignant cell. These mutations are often caused by chemicals or physical agents called carcinogens. Some mutations occur spontaneously, or they can be inherited (germ line mutations.) If untreated, cancers may eventually cause death. Many forms of cancer are associated with exposure to environmental factors, such as tobacco smoking, alcohol, and certain viruses. Some of these can be avoidable, and public health and vaccination programmes are important on a global scale.
Signs & Symptoms : Cancer can cause many different symptoms, depending on the site and character of the malignancy and whether there is metastasis. Cancer may be painless. A definitive diagnosis usually requires the histologic examination of tissue by a pathologist. This tissue is obtained by biopsy or surgery. Once diagnosed, cancer is usually treated with surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation.

CARDIOVASCULAR
Cardiovascular health includes blood circulation to the vital organ such as heart, through blood vessels. A heart attack is an injury to the heart muscle caused by a loss of blood supply. It usually occurs when a blood clot blocks the flow of blood through a coronary artery — a blood vessel that feeds blood to a part of the heart muscle. Interrupted blood flow to your heart can damage or destroy a part of the heart muscle. Another common health condition associated with cardiovascular is the blood pressure. High blood pressure due to excessive sodium intake or other heart condition can be fatal if not treated.
Signs & Symptoms :
1. Pressure, fullness or a squeezing pain in the center of your chest that lasts for more than a few minutes
2. Pain extending beyond your chest to your shoulder, arm, back, or even to your teeth and jaw
3. Increasing episodes of chest pain
4. Prolonged pain in the upper abdomen
5. Shortness of breath
6. Sweating
7. Impending sense of doom
8. Lightheadedness
9. Fainting
10. Nausea and vomiting

CHEMOTHERAPHY ADJUNCT
Chemotherapy uses chemicals to keep cancer cells from growing or spreading, either by preventing them from multiplying or by causing the cells to self-destruct. Chemotherapy can reach nearly every part of your body to kill cancer cells, which makes chemotherapy useful for many types of cancers. Chemotherapy can be used as primary or adjuvant therapy. How long you take chemotherapy and the side effects that result will vary based on your cancer and the drugs you take. Though the side effects can be temporarily debilitating — including nausea, vomiting and fatigue — the reason so many people receive chemotherapy is because many can benefit from it. Adjuvant therapy is a way to target any remaining cancer cells that can't be seen. Adjuvant therapies are used after primary treatments, such as surgery or radiation, to guard against cancer recurrences.

COGNITIVE FUNCTION
The term 'cognitive' is used to refer to the mental processes of an individual, with particular relation to a view that argues that the mind has internal mental states (such as beliefs, desires and intentions) and can be understood in terms of information processing, especially when a lot of abstraction or concretization is involved, or processes such as involving knowledge, expertise or learning for example are at work. It is also used in a wider sense to mean the act of knowing or knowledge, and may be interpreted in a social or cultural sense to describe the emergent development of knowledge and concepts within a group that culminate in both thought and action.

DETOXIFICATION SUPPORT
Detox, short for detoxification, in general is the removal of toxic substances from the body. It is one of the functions of the liver and kidneys, but can also be achieved artificially by techniques such as dialysis and (in a very limited number of cases) chelation therapy. Forms of complementary medicine that claim to remove such toxins from the body: for instance, by herbal, electrical or electromagnetic treatments. The process excrete many toxic materials, including metabolic wastes.

FATIGUE SUPPORT
Fatigue is a state, following a period of mental or physical activity, characterized by a lessened capacity for work and reduced efficiency of accomplishment, usually accompanied by a feeling of weariness, sleepiness, or irritability. It may also follow when, from any cause, energy expenditure outstrips restorative processes and may be confined to a single organ. Fatigue can also be quite dangerous when performing certain duties that require constant concentration, such as driving a vehicle. When someone is sufficiently fatigued, they may experience microsleeps that can cause them to lose concentration; however, objective cognitive testing should be done to differentiate the neurocognitive deficits of brain disease from those attributable to tiredness. The sense of fatigue is believed to originate in the reticular activating system of the lower brain.

FEMALE BALANCE PROTOCOLS
Health conditions such as menstruation problems and menopause are closely related with hormonal changes as we age. An estimated three of every four menstruating women experience some form of premenstrual syndrome. These problems are more likely to trouble women between their late 20s and early 40s, and they tend to recur in a predictable pattern. Yet the physical and emotional changes you experience with premenstrual syndrome may be more or less intense with each menstrual cycle. On the other hand, menopause is a natural biological process, not a medical illness. Although it's associated with hormonal, physical and psychosocial changes in your life, menopause isn't the end of your youth or of your sexuality.
Signs & Symptoms : Mood swings, tender breasts, a swollen abdomen, food cravings, fatigue, irritability and depression.

IMMUNE ENHANCING PROTOCOLS
In a medical sense, immunity is a state of having sufficient biological defenses to avoid infection, disease, or other unwanted biological invasion.
The immune system is the system of specialised cells and organs that protect an organism from outside biological influences. When the immune system is functioning properly, it protects the body against bacteria and viral infections, destroying cancer cells and foreign substances. If the immune system weakens, its ability to defend the body also weakens, allowing pathogens, including viruses that cause common colds and flu, to grow and flourish in the body. The immune system also performs surveillance of tumor cells, and immune suppression has been reported to increase the risk of certain types of cancer.

INTESTINAL HEALTH
The intestine is the part of the body responsible for extracting nutrition from food. While the stomach's role mainly consists in "breaking" food molecules into nutrients, the intestine allows these nutrients to enter the blood via its dedicated membrane.Gastroenteritis is inflammation of the intestines and is the most common disease of the intestines. It can arise as the result of food poisoning.Ileus is a blockage of the intestines.
Appendicitis is inflammation of the vermiform appendix located at the cecum. This is a potentially fatal disease if left untreated; most cases of appendicitis will require surgical intervention. Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are examples of autoimmune diseases affecting the intestines. Crohn's can affect the entire GI tract, while colitis is limited to the bowel.

LIVER SUPPORT
The liver is an organ in vertebrates, including humans. It plays a major role in metabolism and has a number of functions in the body including drug detoxification, glycogen storage, and plasma protein synthesis. It also produces bile, which is important for digestion. Many diseases of the liver are accompanied by jaundice caused by increased levels of bilirubin in the system. The bilirubin results from the breakup of the hemoglobin of dead red blood cells; normally, the liver removes bilirubin from the blood and excretes it through bile.

MEN'S HEALTH
Heredity and male sex hormones play a role, affecting characteristics such as body fat distribution. Specifically, men are more likely to accumulate fat around the abdomen (apple-shape obesity), which is associated with an increased risk of heart disease, diabetes, cancer and stroke. Men are more likely to drink and smoke too, which increase their risks of getting chronic illness.

MENOPAUSE SUPPORT
Menopause (also known as the "Change of life" or climacteric) is a stage of the human female reproductive cycle that occurs as the ovaries stop producing estrogen, causing the reproductive system to gradually shut down. As the body adapts to the changing levels of natural hormones, vasomotor symptoms such as hot flashes and palpitations, psychological symptoms such as increased depression, anxiety, irritability, mood swings and lack of concentration, and atrophic symptoms such as vaginal dryness and urgency of urination appear. Together with these symptoms, the woman may also have increasingly scanty and erratic menstrual periods.

METABOLIC ENHANCEMENT
Metabolism, the Greek word for "change", or "overthrow" (Etymonline)), is the biochemical modification of chemical compounds in living organisms and cells. This includes the biosynthesis of complex organic molecules (anabolism) and their breakdown (catabolism). Metabolism usually consists of sequences of enzymatic steps, also called metabolic pathways. The total metabolism are all biochemical processes of an organism. The cell metabolism includes all chemical processes in a cell. Without metabolism we would not be able to survive.

NERVE HEALTH
Damage to nerves can be caused by physical injury, swelling (e.g. carpal tunnel syndrome), autoimmune diseases (e.g. Guillain-Barré syndrome), diabetes, or failure of the blood vessels surrounding the nerve. Pinched nerves occur when pressure is placed on a nerve, usually from swelling due to an injury or pregnancy. Nerve damage or pinched nerves are usually accompanied by pain, numbness, weakness, or paralysis.

PULMONARY SUPPORT
The lung is the essential organ of respiration in air-breathing vertebrates. Its principal function is to transport oxygen from the atmosphere into the bloodstream, and to excrete carbon dioxide from the bloodstream into the atmosphere. This it accomplishes with its mosaic of specialized cells that form millions of tiny, exceptionally thin-walled air sacs where gas exchange takes place. Lungs also have nonrespiratory functions.
Medical terms related to the lung often begin with pulmo-, from the Latin pulmonarius ("of the lungs"), cognate with the Greek pleumon ("lung").

SINUS SUPPORT
Sinuses are air-filled, hollow spaces or cavities within the facial bones surrounding your nose. When the linings of your sinuses become infected, usually due to viruses or bacteria, they may swell, causing an obstruction and interfering with the normal drainage of mucus. Sinusitis can cause considerable discomfort and can lead to more serious infections if left untreated. Although sinusitis can become a chronic condition, most cases are short-lived (acute) and treatment lasts about two weeks.
Signs & Symptoms : Sinusitis, difficulty in breathing, blocked nose / airway, hypersensitive

SKIN HEALTH
Skin is an organ of the integumentary system composed of a layer of tissues that protect underlying muscles and organs. As the interface with the surroundings, it plays the most important role in protecting against pathogens. Its other main functions are insulation and temperature regulation, sensation and vitamin D and B synthesis. As skin ages, it becomes thinner and more easily damaged. Intensifying this effect is the decreasing ability of skin to heal itself. Skin sagging is caused by the fall in elasticity. Skin also receives less blood flow and lower gland activity.
Signs & Symptoms :
The skin is subject to constant attack from without, and so can be afflicted by numerous ailments, such as:
1. Benign tumors of the skin: Squamous cell papilloma
2. Skin cancer
3. Rashes
4. Blisters
5. Acne
6. Keratosis pilaris
7. Fungal infections such as athlete's foot
8. microbial infections.
9. calcinosis cutis
10. ulcer

HEALTHY STOMACH
The stomach is an organ in the gastrointestinal tract used to digest food. Generally, the stomach's primary function is not the absorption of nutrients from digested food; this task is usually performed by the intestine.In humans, the stomach is a highly acidic environment (maintained by the secretion of hydrochloric acid) with peptidase digestive enzymes. In fact, the stomach's interior can secrete 2 to 3 liters of gastric fluid per day.
Signs & Symptoms :
1. Unhealthy stomach can cause: Curling ulcer
2. Cushing ulcer
3. Stomach cancer
4. Gastritis
5. Linitis plastica
6. Peptic ulcer
7. Zollinger-Ellison syndrome

URINARY TRACT HEALTH
The urinary system is the organ system that produces, stores, and carries urine. In humans it includes two kidneys, two ureters, the urinary bladder, two sphincter muscles, and the urethra. Diseases affecting the urinary system:
1. There are numerous kidney diseases, many of which interfere with the normal production of urine. Renal failure may be acute or chronic, and may require medication and dialysis.
2. Kidney stones may be painful and cause long-term kidney damage. Proteinuria is usually without symptoms but may indicate renal disease.
3. Stenosis (blockage), reflux (backflow of urine into the kidney, causing damage)
4. Urinary tract infections (UTIs), interstitial cystitis, incontinence (involuntary loss of urine), benign prostatic hyperplasia, prostatitis (inflammation of the prostate) and urinary retention (inability to pass urine).

YEAST/FUNGUS HEALTH SUPPORT
Candidiasis, commonly called yeast infection or thrush, is a fungal infection of any of the Candida species, of which Candida albicans is probably the most common. In immunocompetent people, candidiasis can usually only be found in exposed and moist parts of the body, such as:
1. the oral cavity (oral thrush)
2. the vagina (vaginal candidiasis or thrush)
3. folds of skin in the diaper area (diaper rash)
4. the most common cause of vaginal irritation or vaginitis
5. can also occur on the male genitals, particularly in uncircumcised men.
Signs & Symptoms : The most common symptoms are itching and irritation of the vagina and/or vulva. A whitish or whitish-gray discharge may be present, sometimes resembling cottage cheese, and may have a "yeasty" smell like beer or baking bread.
