ANGELICA Psychogenic asthma. Flatulent colic. Gastric colic with flatulence. Flatulence with inflammation.

Angelica (Angelica archangelica) – Constituents

Angelica contains a wide range of volatile oils, coumarins, and other compounds that give it carminative, antispasmodic, and expectorant actions:

Volatile oils (0.3–1%)

α- and β-phellandrene

α-pinene, limonene, camphene

borneol

bisabolene
(these support digestion, reduce spasms, and relieve flatulence)

Coumarins & Furocoumarins

Umbelliferone

Bergapten

Xanthotoxin
(contribute to antispasmodic and vascular effects, but also photosensitizing)

Bitter principles

Angelic acid derivatives

Resinous compounds
(stimulate appetite & digestive secretions)

Organic acids

Angelic acid

Valeric acid

Tannins (mild astringent effect)

Sugars, pectin, and phytosterols

🌱 How Constituents Relate to Uses

Psychogenic asthma → volatile oils act as expectorants and mild bronchodilators, relaxing spasm in airways.

Flatulent colic & gastric colic → carminative volatile oils + bitters relieve gas, cramping, and improve digestion.

Flatulence with inflammation → anti-inflammatory and antispasmodic coumarins calm the gut.

⚠️ Note: Angelica is generally safe short-term, but because of its furocoumarins, it can increase photosensitivity (skin reaction to sunlight). Not recommended in pregnancy.

Elderberry
(Sambucus nigra and related species) contains a wide variety of bioactive constituents.

Here’s a breakdown of the main groups:

1. Anthocyanins (pigments, major active compounds):

Cyanidin-3-glucoside

Cyanidin-3-sambubioside

Cyanidin-3-sambubioside-5-glucoside

Cyanidin-3,5-diglucoside

(These give elderberry its deep purple-black color and are responsible for antioxidant properties.)

2. Flavonols and Other Phenolics:

Quercetin

Kaempferol

Isorhamnetin

Chlorogenic acid

Caffeic acid

3. Vitamins and Minerals:

Vitamin C (ascorbic acid)

Vitamin A (in the form of carotenoids)

B-complex vitamins (small amounts)

Minerals: potassium, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, iron

4. Organic Acids:

Malic acid

Citric acid

5. Sugars and Polysaccharides:

Glucose

Fructose

Pectins

6. Proteins and Lectins:

Sambucus lectins (e.g., SNA — Sambucus nigra agglutinin)
(Note: some lectins can be toxic if berries are raw.)

7. Other Constituents:

Tannins

Essential oils (minor amounts)

Small amounts of cyanogenic glycosides (e.g., sambunigrin) – which can release cyanide if unripe or uncooked berries are consumed in large amounts.

👉 Important safety note:
Raw elderberries, their seeds, bark, and leaves contain cyanogenic glycosides and lectins that can cause nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea if eaten raw. Cooking or processing removes most of the toxic compounds.

Here’s a clear table of elderberry constituents and their effects:

Constituent Type Examples Main Effects
Anthocyanins Pigments (flavonoids) Cyanidin-3-glucoside, Cyanidin-3-sambubioside Strong antioxidant, immune support, anti-inflammatory, antiviral activity
Flavonols & Phenolics Plant compounds Quercetin, Kaempferol, Isorhamnetin, Chlorogenic acid Antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, supports cardiovascular health
Vitamins Nutrients Vitamin C, Vitamin A (carotenoids), B-complex (trace) Immune support, skin/eye health, energy metabolism
Minerals Nutrients Potassium, Calcium, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Iron Electrolyte balance, bone strength, oxygen transport
Organic Acids Natural acids Malic acid, Citric acid Digestive support, antioxidant, flavor profile
Sugars & Polysaccharides Carbohydrates Glucose, Fructose, Pectins Energy source, immune-modulating polysaccharides
Proteins & Lectins Glycoproteins Sambucus lectins (SNA) Potential antiviral properties but can be toxic if raw
Tannins Polyphenols Condensed tannins Antioxidant, antimicrobial, astringent effects
Essential Oils (trace) Volatile oils Minor terpenes Mild antimicrobial, aroma
Cyanogenic Glycosides Plant defense compounds Sambunigrin Can release cyanide → toxic when berries/leaves/bark are raw or unripe

Are you struggling with low energy and stubborn belly fat that just won’t budge? Turns out, it's not your fault.

In 2023, an esteemed team of scientific researchers discovered just one common factor in all overweight women and men - compromised liver function. And the one thing common in skinny people? Optimal liver function!

As you’re probably aware, one of your liver’s main functions is to cleanse your body of all of the chemicals and toxins you’re exposed to through food, drugs, alcohol and the environment in general.

However, your liver is also The Fat-Burning Furnace for your entire body.

Everything you eat or drink eventually reaches your liver for processing.
Your liver then determines if the food you eat, regardless of how healthy or unhealthy it is,will get burned as energy or if it will be stored as unsightly body fat…

Studies show with optimal liver function, your liver cells can be 14 times more efficient at burning fat and calories on autopilot…

Not trying to sell anything here, but I have to share this because it actually helped me (or someone I care about).
If you deal with nerve pain — like that constant tingling, burning, or numbness — you know how frustrating it is. I came across something called Nerve Armor, and it’s been one of the only things that made a real difference.

It’s a natural supplement, but what impressed me is that it’s backed by real research. Ingredients like PEA, alpha-lipoic acid, and benfotiamine — all shown to help calm inflammation and support actual nerve repair.

After a few weeks, the sharp nerve pain started easing up. I was sleeping better and didn’t feel that constant “buzzing” in my hands and feet anymore. It didn’t fix everything overnight, but it definitely helped more than I expected.

If you're dealing with any kind of nerve discomfort or know someone who is, it might be worth checking out. No pressure — just sharing something that worked for me.

Here’s the link if you want to look into it:

“I tried everything for my nerve pain, but nothing worked long-term. Thanks to your solution, the burning and tingling in my feet is gone. I can finally walk my dog and sleep through the night without waking up in pain!”

🌿 What Is the DASH Diet — and Can It Really Help Lower Blood Pressure Naturally? 🧂

If you're dealing with high blood pressure or just trying to eat in a way that supports your heart, you NEED to know about the DASH diet — short for Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension.

This isn't a trendy cleanse or a starvation plan. It’s a clinically proven way of eating that can lower your blood pressure by 8–14 points — similar to prescription meds — just by changing what’s on your plate.

Here’s the breakdown:

✅ Eat more of:

Fruits & veggies

Whole grains

Nuts, seeds, beans

Lean meats, fish, or tofu

Low-fat dairy

🚫 Cut back on:

Salty snacks & canned goods

Fried and fatty meats

Sugary drinks & processed foods

There’s even a lower-sodium version that’s especially powerful for people already dealing with hypertension.

💡 Studies show it also helps with weight, cholesterol, and overall heart health.

If you’re looking for a natural, food-based way to heal, this is a great place to start. I’ll be sharing more about how to combine this with herbs like garlic, dandelion, and lifestyle shifts to support true transformation. 🧘🏽‍♂️🍵
