Alchemy of Amino Acids Alchemy of Amino Acids Vanita Dahia What do you call an acid with an attitude? A-mean oh acid Nerdy Humor by Sydney Grubb First published by Vanita Dahia 2019 Copyright © Vanita Dahia ISBN: EBook: 978-0-6481789-2-7 Vanita Dahia is author of this work. The information in this book is based on the authors experience and opinions. Any references in this book have been noted and acknowledged.

Cover design: Vanita Dahia Layout and typesetting: Kumar Rengaraj Editor: Vanita Dahia Acknowledgments I would like to thank my peers for their former dedication and work on Amino Acids in texts they have researched and written. In particular, I wish to thank my gurus in Amino Acids! Dr Richard S Lord and Dr J. Alexandra Bralley in their text “Laboratory evaluations for Integrative and functional Medicine”. This text is well researched and jam packed with detailed biochemistry with an in- depth understanding of integrative medicine. “The Amino Revolution” by Robert Erdmann. Dr Erdmann’s work was the trigger for my interest in Amino Acids. His simplistic view and practical use of amino acids for therapeutic use sparked my interest to learn more. “The healing nutrients within” by Dr Eric R Braverman “Amino Acid Compendium” by Ilve Hunt. Ilve has kindly provided with permission from KRPAN enterprises to include Amino Acids compendium in this text. Testimonials Carmel Krpan- Director Krpan Industries Ilve Hunt- Adv Dip HSC, DRM, researcher Amino Acid Compendium HealthWise® amino acids are proud to be associated with the pioneer of compounding amino acids. Vanita Dahia, who is, without doubt, one of the most inspiring and well researched compounding pharmacist, practitioner and natural health advocate in Australia. We are delighted to be able to contribute to Vanita’s newest publication and look forward to being part of her future research projects. John Catsicas – Compounding Pharmacist, Melbourne, Australia After her first book, Alchemy of the Mind, Vanita has done it again with Alchemy of Amino Acids. This book just like the first one contains all the information one would ever need to know if they were interested in a complete analysis of the functions of amino acids, how to determine their balance in the body, how to adjust them if out of balance, thus affecting permanent resolution of symptoms in a natural way. I highly recommend this book to all practitioners as a worthy addition to their arsenal. Dr Ari Diskin, Chiropractic Doctor, Melbourne Gratitude for Vanita Dahia’s ongoing contribution to educating us all, professionals and public alike. Vanita’s vast knowledge, wisdom and many years experience as a Compounding Chemist, Naturopath, Practitioner and Consultant uniquely qualifies her as an expert. Through her latest eBook Alchemy of Amino Acids, Vanita has once again demonstrated why she serves as advisor to doctors and laboratories. I call her the doctors’ doctor. `Dr Margaret Jiin Ngu MBBS, FACNEM, FAMAC, MSE(Psych) Excellent companion for all Integrative Medicine practitioners. Next to vitamins and minerals, amino acids are essential building blocks that play a huge part in clinical medicine. Vanita Dahia has done it again with this long-awaited book Alchemy of Amino Acids, an essential guide to the use of amino acids in the functional approach to physical and mental disorders. This book gives step by step guidance to each amino acid explaining the physiological function, deficiency syndromes and how to use them therapeutically in clinical practice. Huge gratitude and appreciation. Mary Cavvagion, Director Nutripath Pathology Services, Melbourne, Australia Vanita, I admire your passion and commitment in assisting health practitioners world-wide in understanding the power of amino acids for health conditions. Congratulations on yet another book, Alchemy of Amino Acids. This book has helped me finally understand amino acids as it is it so easy to understand, implement the essential information and stay current. I mandate that everyone has a copy of this book, a great training tool. Dr Nathan Francis, Integrative Medical Doctor, Perth There is an increasing incidence of epidemic proportions of calorie rich, nutrient poor diets contributing to many illnesses in the millennial to the post war generations, ranging from metabolic syndromes to nutrigenomics related diseases. Vanita Dahlia’s book will be an essential compendium to the experienced and the novice practitioner of integrative medicine. I am grateful she has contributed her vast knowledge of amino acid in a practical and digestible format. Objective of Alchemy of Amino Acids Health practitioners are bombarded with technical and research data on Amino Acids. The objective of Alchemy of Amino Acids is to provide easy to read charts detailing what t means to have low or high level of an amino acid, how to read a lab report, what it means clinically and how to custom compound a prescription based on a lab report. In the past, some health professionals and amino acid suppliers have formulated prescriptive protocols for the patient loosely based on their specific algorithms. I have for the last 30 years worked at developing an easy to implement compounding algorithm that is practical, clinically relevant with positive therapeutic outcomes My specific template for compounding is by no means conclusive but has worked for me over the years. I saw amazing positive therapeutic outcomes from my compounded amino acid formulae. I will show you how to tweak a formula to suit your patient’s needs. I feel obliged to share what has worked for me and am open to opinions and suggestions to enhance the health of the patient.

  • TOTAL FOLATE in PEANUTS and PEANUT PRODUCTS by LAKSHMI
    TOTAL FOLATE IN PEANUTS AND PEANUT PRODUCTS by LAKSHMI KOTA (Under the Direction of Ronald R. Eitenmiller) ABSTRACT Samples consisting of 222 cultivar specific samples of four different peanut types (Runner, Virginia, Spanish and Valencia) from 2 years (2005 and 2006) from 3 geographical locations (Southeast, Southwest and Virginia/Carolina) were collected for the study. No significant differences were noted among the folate levels by types for 2005 crop year peanuts (P>0.05). For 2006 peanuts, Spanish peanuts were statistically lower in folate than Runner and Virginia peanuts (P<0.05). For the Runner cultivars, significant (P<0.05) differences existed among cultivars with some significant year-to-year variation. Year of harvest did not have significant effect on folate content of Virginia peanuts. Folate contents among Virginia cultivars were statistically similar in 2005 and 2006. For Spanish cultivars in 2005, OLin had significantly higher folate than Tamspan 90. Overall means for both Runner and Spanish peanut types showed that high-oleic cultivars contained significantly higher total folate levels than normal cultivars (P<0.05). Folate levels in peanuts from Virginia/Carolina region varied significantly by production year, but peanuts from Southeast and Southwest region did not vary from 2005 to 2006. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to optimize the trienzyme digestion for the extraction of total folate from peanut butter. The predicted second-order polynomial model was adequate (R 2 = 0.97) with a small coefficient of variation (3.05). Both Pronase R and conjugase had significant effects on the extraction. Ridge analysis gave an optimum trienzyme time: Pronase R, 1h; α-amylase, 1.5 h; conjugase, 1h.
