News - Medicinal Uses of Andrographis - Winter 2009
For the past 2 years, staff at the small herb company Herbs, Etc., has been preparing for an inspection of Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). In hopes of being GMP-compliant, many of the 27 employees have attended GMP seminars and webinars, thoroughly read and reread FDA's GMP rule, and discussed the rule section-by-section in weekly meetings. Additionally, they have upgraded certain aspects of the company's operations, including the hiring of a new full-time employee to review and approve manufacturing documentation for quality assurance purposes. Though it has been a tremendous amount of work, Daniel Gagnon, owner of the Santa Fe, New Mexico based Herbs, Etc., said he is glad the GMP rule has been implemented.
Herbs
Etc. Donates Herbal Relief Medicines.Santa Fe, September - - As
the fires rage around the canyons of Los Angeles, thousands
of people are forced to evacuate their homes and seek relief at
local shelters set up by the Red Cross. Suffering from smoke inhalation
and irritated lungs, evacuees at two area high schools, set up as
shelters, are finding a different kind of relief.
Herbs, Etc. embraced the idea of creating a smaller footprint long before sustainability became such a buzzword in today's business practices. They have been incorporating the motto "Reduce - Reuse - Renew" in their manufacturing procedures since 1989. A few months ago, Herbs, Etc. was contacted by the publishing company that published the Whole Earth Catalogue back in 1969. They are gathering data for their newest book, Whole Green Catalogue and wanted Herbs, Etc. to be highlighted in their section on sustainable manufacturing facilities that have incorporated renewable methods in their practices. For Herbs, Etc, this was quite an honor to be recognized in the soon-to-be-released source guide.

Cranberries prevent and treat UTIs in several ways, including increasing acidity of urine and preventing adhesion of E. coli to uroepithelial cells in the bladder. Research reviews have concluded there is evidence that cranberry juice may decrease the number of UTIs in women. “ Cranberries and blueberries contain antioxidant conpounds and a sugar (Mannose) that help to prevent the formation of new bacterial colonies in the urinary tract,” noted Neil Levin, CCN, nutrition educator with NOW foods. Clinical trials have shown cranberry juice can reduce the risk of UTIs and the bacterial adherence of E. coli strains, and cranberry tablets (as Cran-Max®, from Proprietary Nutritionals) may be an equally effective treatment as juice at just half the cost. Daniel Gagnon, medicinal herbalist and owner of Herbs, Etc., Inc., developed CranBladder ReLeaf® to support urinary tract health. He noted, “Healthy bladder walls are conducive to healthy bladder tissues by supporting the secretion of bacterial anti-adherence factors. This formula stimulates the urinary immune system, slightly acidifies the urine and tones the urinary passages”.
HerbDay is a worldwide event celebrating the importance of herbs and herbalism in our everyday lives. HerbDay 2007 aims to raise public awareness about the significance of herbs and the many ways they can be used safely, effectively and creatively for health, beauty care, and culinary enjoyment. We, at Herbs, Etc., believe that greater exposure to herbs leads to educated, knowledgeable usage of herbal products. HerbDay 2007 aspires to build public support for maintaining personal choice in the use of botanicals, herbal medicines and health. Next
year's event will be celebrated Saturday, October 11, 2008.
Global warming may one day be the cause of more than melting icecaps and homeless polar bears. Increased levels of CO2 in the atmosphere could also lead to increased growth of poison ivy in a more lethal form, according to a recently released study from Duke University. The six-year study, conducted in a forest near Chapel Hill, North Carolina, created CO2 levels that were some 20 parts per million more than the current norm, levels that are predicted to become a global reality by the year 2050. The poison ivy growth in the areas where the study was done surged some 150%. Studies in tropical forests already report an increase in woody vines of which poison ivy is included. Poison ivy affects 350,000 Americans alone each year, according to an article written by Brian Handerk for National Geographic News, who reported on the Duke study. Approximately 80% of all people are allergic to poison ivy and experience a red, bumpy, itchy and sometimes blistering skin rash when they come into contact with urushiol, the plant’s carbon-based active compound. The Duke study showed that the fast-growing carbon-dioxide enhanced poison ivy vines contain a stronger strain of urushiol, which could prove to be even more poisonous to humans. Herbs Etc.’s Ivy Itch ReLeaf® spray stimulates healing for outbreaks of poison ivy or poison oak and soothes irritated skin caused by insect bites or stinging nettles. Packaged in a handy 1-oz. size, Ivy Itch ReLeaf® can easily be tossed in a backpack or summer first aid kit for use when hiking, camping, and other outdoor activities |
