Everytime I see a substance that cross treats against virus and cancer,
Arthritis and viruses, etc. I automatically know in my heart what active ingredients I will find in that substance before I even research it.
Nettle leaf postings are starting to show here and I want to say again, this substance is promising,....it has some very complex, to very simple anti oxidants, and/or oxygen donors. It probably boasts the greatest diversity in complexity of these oxygen donors, which is a good thing.
quercetin, (wonderful stuff) tannins,...extremely large molecules with oxygen subunits. Flavenoids, moderately complex donors, Fatty acids,...carboxylated even. Terpenes,...is phospated contain tons of o2 sub units and resemble ATP, as well as other Krebs facilitators and sterols also donors. Chlorophyll,...know oxygen potentiator.
Also seen are some of the similar compounds that stimulate white cell production. Lipopoly sacharides, etc.
So, on the surface, these chemicals would seem to benefit any disease that favors low oxygen environment. Could this be why it is used to cross treat different illnesses?
Once again, the draw back is dosing,...if you are going to want to get the highest dose tolerable for oxygen donors
You will be consuming crude substances and also ingesting other ingredients that you may not want too much of, ie,..seratonin, Acetylcholine.
I am impressed by the broad range of complexity that these oxygen donors have. I myself try to consume simple donors,...like quinones, sulfate, moderate complex, flavenoids and polyphenols, very complex, fatty acids and tannins. Also, chlorophyl.
Because I target these compounds specifically I can control dosing better,...and I don't have to ingest all the other stuff with it.
But, I just wanted to let you all know that the list of oxygen related compounds in Nettle leaf is very impressive.
I do mean impressive.
