Subject: ELLAGIC ACID SOURCES
I have found two sources that I like for ellagic acid. The first one is a nutriceutical company that actually makes a dog bisquit to help dogs prevent cancer. I know nothing about this company and I have not tested their products, but here is their web address:

">ellagic acid dog bisquits</A>
The company that I like the most is the one supplying The Hollings Cancer center with their product for their double blind cervical cancer study. I had this product muscle tested on a dozen or so people by a leading clinical kinesiologist that I work with. The product showed no negative effects on the thyroid or adrenals and created no weakness to any organ on everyone tested. I will post some information below from the manufacturer.
There always seems to be negative people on newsgroups, and I hope that noone thinks for a second that I am here to sell products and make a profit from sick people. I am a holistic healer and reseacher, and my true, true intentions are to help people with illness. The company that makes this product is called 21st Century Nutriceuticals, and they only sell to distributors. I am not honored to get the word out about a product this way, but it does make sense. If the company put the product through main stream drug reps, it would take ten years for the product to get to market. Selling the product by distributors has put the product all over the world in less than three months.
Also, please note that I am not stocking this product for the purpose of selling it at retail and making a profit. Anyone can call the company and become a distributor for free with no strings and order the product at wholesale. To order the product you can call the company at 800 638-7462. They will ask for my number which is 41180700. You should then ask to sign up as a free distributor. If you don't become a distributor then they will charge you retail. Going on, I would suggest that anyone who doubts this product call and listen to the testimonials at 512 404-2331. you can also see the research on this product at the Washington DC. Red Raspberry Commission website at: <A HREF="http://www.red-raspberry.com/">Washington D.C. Red Raspberry Commission</A>
Here is some information on the product in question, and I hope and pray that noone thinks this is snake oil. This is the main product that is being used by one of the largest cancer clinics in the country.
Take care and good health.
Sincerely,
Steve
21st Century Nutriceuticals(tm) was founded by a $250 million nutrition company in 1993. Since then, we have introduced more than 25 doctor-developed
products targeting every major preventable cause of disease and sub-optimum health. Our top-selling products target the top three preventable causes of death in America:
•Cancer: Ellagic.Red21(tm) •Obesity: The Maca Diet(tm) and the 1/2 Day Rotational Weight Management System(tm) •Arthritis: Arthro-Myalgia spray(tm) •Smoking: CigNo(tm) and The Love Your Life Kit(tm)
21st Century Nutriceuticals, a Springville, Utah based nutritional supplement company recently announced development of its Ellagic.Red21 Product.
President and CEO, Wayne B. Watson announced, The recently released studies from the Medical University of South Carolina demonstrating that Ellagic Acid promotes natural death of prostate cells, and other studies confirming that breast, colon, lung, esophagal, and skin cancer (melanoma) may benefit fromt the apoptotic process triggerd by the acid is a major breakthrough in the battle against the insidious disease named Cancer!
European medical studies also demonstrate that Ellagic Acid is known to reduce the incidence of birth defects, promote wound healing, reduce heart disease and may reduce or reverse chemically induced liver fibrosis. The positve impact of bringing such a powerful, natural product to the marketplace is virtually unmeasurable. The positve impact on human lives, reversing suffering, and financial distress are incalcuable!
Ellagic-red21 was designed to deliver what is called a killer dose of ellagic acid to cancer cells. The strongest form of ellagic acid was found to come from the seeds of the Meeger red raspberry. Ellagic- red21 has a patent pending on it extraction method of taking the acid from the seeds of raspberries. Moreover, the product is seven times the strength of just eating raspberries.
This product is a natural food supplement with no side effects and it cannot be FDA approved since it is not a drug. Caution is expressed to brain cancer patients. This product starts killing off cancer cells very quickly, and when cancers cells die they emit amonia. The brain has a protective sack around it called the blood brain barrier. This barrier is there to protect the brain from chemicals and heavy metals. Therefore, this barrier also lets things slowly go out of it. I am not a doctor, but if I had brain cancer, I would only take two of the ellagic-red21 per day.
The general dosage for everyone is two capsules, twice per day which is on the bottle. Cancer patients are taking up to three to four capsules three times a day with no side effects. The only ingredient in the product is extraction from the seeds of raspberries.

Misc,. Information:
Ellagic Acid may be one the most potent ways to fight Cancer. The highest concentration of Ellagic Acid is found in Red Raspberries. Ellagic Acid, a phenolic compound that is a proven anti-carcinogen, anti-mutagen, and an anti-cancer initiator!
Research conducted at the Hollings Cancer Institute at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) indicate that Ellagic Acid slows the growth of abnormal colon cells in humans, prevents the development of cells infected with human papilloma virus (HPV) which is linked to cervical cancer, and promotes apoptotic growth (natural death) of prostate cancer cells. The apoptotic process triggered by this antioxidant also has beneficial effects on breast, lung, esophageal, and skin cancer (melanoma).
Medical finding in Europe futher show that ellagic acid reduces the incidence of birth defects, promotes wound healing, reduces and reverses chmically induced liver figrosis, and is helpful in the fight against heart disease!
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Ellagic acid is a phenolic compound that has become known as a potent anti-carcinogenic/anti-mutagenic compound. It also has anti-bacterial and anti-viral properties. Ellagic acid itself is not thought to be naturally present in plants. Instead, polymers of gallic acid and hexahydroxydipenoyl (HHDP) are linked to glucose centers to form the class of compounds known as ellagitannins. When two gallic acid groups become linked side by side within a tannin molecule an HHDP group is formed.
Ellagic acid is the result when the HHDP group is cleaved from the tannin molecule and spontaneously rearrages. It is the ellagitannins that are present in Red Raspberries. The Meeker Red Raspberry is the best source of ellagic acid followed by the Chiliwak and Willamette. The Meeker variety is specific to the Pacific Northwest and is grown primarily for commercial use in Washington State. The availability to the body of ellagic acid from dietary sources has only been confirmed with red raspberries. Other foods such as strawberries, pomegranates, and walnuts contain far lesser amounts of ellagic acid yet the bioavailability has not been confirmed!
ELLAGIC ACID REDUCES THE INCIDENCE OF CANCER!
Ellagic acid acts as a scavenger to bind cancer-causing chemincals, making them inative! It inhibits the ability of other chemicals to cause nutations in bacteria. In addition, ellacic acid from Red Raspberries prevents binding of carcinogens to DNA, and reduces the incidence of cancer in cultered human cells exposed to carcinogens.
