For Natural Stress Reduction and COX-2 Inhibition Skyrocketing stress is one of our nation's most pervasive public health problems. Daily stress can cause imbalances in inflammatory COX-2 production and cortisol levels, which can influence blood sugar changes. To regain balance, Planetary Formulas introduces Holy Basil, a legendary Ayurvedic herb that is making news for its ability to inhibit the inflammatory COX-2 enzyme, balance cortisol levels and normalize blood sugar. Holy Basil is rich in beneficial compounds, such as rosmarinic acid, eugenol, and many other which work together to reduce stress. This herb also typically contains ursolic acid, which has been shown to inhibit COX-2 in vitro research. As a result, Holy Basil has a positive effect on mental well-being, and can provide minor pain relief from everyday activities. Planetary Formulas brings you this special herb, used daily in India by millions, in a high potency, 450 mg tablet. Stress, Blood Sugar and Nervous System Protection For over five millennia, Tulsi (Holy Basil) has been used to improve digestion and restore imbalances of the body and mind. Now research has documented that Holy Basil may do this by decreasing levels of cortisol, a hormone produced and secreted by the adrenal glands. Nicknamed the “stress hormone,” cortisol production increases in response to chronic stress. Cortisol triggers the body to make glucose from amino acids, which causes blood sugar to rise. Through normalizing cortisol levels in times of stress, holy basil may prevent not only the mood changes associated with stress, but also prevent the increases in blood sugar that researchers say can contribute to numerous health imbalances affecting more than half of all Americans. Holy basil has also been found to normalize neurotransmitter levels in the brain. Researchers found in animal studies that holy basil counteracted stress-induced changes in neurotransmitters and enzymes. Stress leads to a positive increase in brain serotonin levels, increases in dopamine levels and increases in SDH (succinate dehydrogenase) levels, while Holy Basil may help people maintain normal levels of these brain chemicals in times of stress. Another study found that animals that received the extract showed significant normalization of epinephrine, norepinephrine, serotonin, MAO, and SDH. Epinephrine and norepinephrine are used in coping with stress. The researchers suggest that when dopamine levels rise, these two neurotransmitters may be replenished since dopamine is a precursor for their synthesis. This may be the mechanism by which holy basil assists with stress adaptation. A Powerful Adaptogen Holy Basil is classified as a premier “adaptogen,” an herb that can normalize body processes and restore overall health by maintaining body systems. Adaptogens support our systemic response to stress and give us stamina. Holy Basil was selected for Planetary Formulas by renowned herbalist Micha

SinusFree (Sinus Free) Herbal Liquid Supplement Supports Normal Breathing SinusFree is a spicy and pungent sinus formula, designed to support the free flow of mucus and facilitate normal breathing. Sinus Free was developed exclusively for Planetary Formulas by herbalist and naturopathic physician, Dr. Jill Stansbury. Traditional Botanicals for Sinus Support The ingredients in SinusFree reflect the botanical experience of traditional cultures throughout the world. Yarrow is a hardy perennial plant that is native to Europe and Asia and has been naturalized in North America. Its leaves, flowers and oil have been used by herbalists since ancient times. Yarrow is strongly pungent and aromatic and contains sesquiterpene lactones, azulene, coumarins and flavonoids. Thyme is indigenous to the Mediterranean region, northern Africa and parts of Asia. It is rich in the essential oils, thymol and carvacrol, as well as flavonoids. Thyme is a strongly aromatic kitchen spice, traditionally used to support the normal flow of mucus and to facilitate deep breathing. Eyebright is a European botanical that has been used in the United States for at least 150 years.While most people, including many herbalists, associate eyebright with vision support, it has been traditionally used to support the sinuses. Horseradish has been cultivated for about 2,000 years for its thick, fleshy white roots, which possess an intense pungent taste. It is native to Europe, and was brought to America by early settlers. The pungency of horseradish is primarily due to the presence of its essential oils. Essential Oils and Flavonoids The aromatic qualities of the herbs used in Sinus Free come from their essential oils. Essential oils are often used in the form of teas, steams and inhalers as a way to liquefy mucus secretions, thereby promoting their free flow. The essential oils also evaporate readily and can be breathed in.When they come in contact with nasal membranes, they have a gentle stimulating effect that supports healthy mucosa and promotes circulation of mucus. The effects of these herbs are similar to what we commonly experience when eating horseradish or drinking a hot cup of ginger tea - within minutes, mucus begins to flow freely and breathing is deeper. Yarrow, thyme and eyebright are also rich in flavonoids, which help to stabilize mast cells and thereby reduce the release of histamines. Flavonoids are an important part of a sinus support program.
