TRIKO OK COMPONENTS

For finding some components in a specific treatment for man and woman, Naturdieta researchers have individualized some useful components for both the sexes and other specific components for the man and for the woman.

YEAST

The yeast is considered the richest source of vitamin B, folic acid, mineral salts as chrome, zinc, enzymes and amino-acids. Given for a dietary and therapeutic use, it doesn't create fermentation ; it is resistent to the antibiotic activity , it helps the liver to develop its functions; it increases the carbohydrate absorption and it stimulates the production of antibodies. It is a good integrator of vitamin B1(tiamin), vitamin B2 (riboflavin), B12 ,B5,vitamin H, choline, folic acid, niacin, inositol, zinc and chrome. A traditional coadjutant for colitis, constipation, prolonged use of antibiotic, immune insufficiency, seborrhea, acne, diabetes and stress.

WHEAT GERM

The wheat germ is rich in vitamin E. The vitamin E is an efficacious antioxidant and it represents, therefore, a valid defense for the cellular membranes against the free radicals. The vitamin E is one of the fundamental elements for the prevention of the oxidative vascular damages at vasal wall level and at LDL level. Numerous studies have, in fact, demostrated the correlation between the vitamin E at plasmatic level and the cardiovascular illnesses. In the retina, the protection of the vitamin E has a fundamental role for the correct maintenance of the cellular trophism and therefore a correct retinic functionality. Its antioxidant activity avoid the precocious cutaneous aging caused by the exogenous aggressive agents as the sun, pollution but even endogenous agents derived by stress, smoke, etc... The Vitamin E pruduces a correct functionality in the nervous and muscular system; it is even well known as the vitamin of fertility, it is considered as a strategic factor in the physiological processes that regulate the reproductive apparatus. The Wheat Germ is also rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, that cannot be synthesized by the man, so they have a remarkable value from a nutritional point of view.

CARROT

The use of the carrot is mainly dued to the carotenoids and particularly to the beta-carotene that it conteins. These are precursory dispositions of the vitamin A. The beta-carotene is a lipophil antioxidant that produces manifold activities. In the oculistic field, it protects the retina by a direct filtration of the UV rays and it neutralizes the free radicals that are produced by the interaction of the light with the oxygen and the retina is rich in it. The protective effect of betacarotene is well known against the ultraviolet rays, also at cutaneous level. The betacarotene and the other carotenoids are a part of the antioxidant physiological defenses in the LDL. A study at the university of Harward, lasted 6 years, has demonstrated that the betacarotene prevents the oxidation of the LDL, against the creation of the arteriosclerotic plaques. Moreover the pectano favors the elimination and the diminution of the cholesterol. In 1979 the researchers demonstrated carrot the of hypoglycemic substances in the carrot, that made it particularly precious for the diabetics. The carrot is even used for intestinal disorders . Numerous studies have demonstrated the preventive effectiveness of betacarotene for some tumural forms. A study published on "U.S. Pharmacist" lasted 19 years on 1954 people, concludes that "the subjects, with low plasmatic levels of betacarotene, quadruplicate the possibility to develop tumoral forms."

HOP

The hop is a common plant in Europe and is cultivated in the regions where the beer is produced. From the twelfth century it is mentioned as a "remedy for the melancholy" for its aperitive, depurative, laxative and vermifugal properties, the researchers have confirmed its sedative and relaxing activity. These functions are widely justified, considering the quantity of aminoacids and hormone-similar substances, for the essential oil and phyto-hormonal substances, the hop is efficacious for hair growth, stimulating the metabolic functions of the superficial tissues of the scalp. The principal components in the hop are :a resin and a volatile oil. In the resin there is the humolone, humolinone, adumolone and preumolone, while in the essential oil there are B-mircene, depentene, alphacariophilene, farnesen, s acrilic esquiterpen, sesquiterpenic alcohol, folic ether and formaldehyde, metilnonchiltenone, free and esterified acids. Moreover there are: flavonoids, antocians, proteins, starches, glucides , phytosterin, cetilic alcohol, para -aminobenzoic acid and phytoestrogens.
