  • HEALTHY ENVIRONMENTS a Compilation of Substances Linked to Asthma
    HEALTHY ENVIRONMENTS A Compilation of Substances Linked to Asthma Prepared by Perkins+Will for the National Institutes of Health, Division of Environmental Protection, as part of a larger effort to promote health in the built environment. July 2011 PURPOSE STATEMENT This report was prepared by Perkins+Will on behalf of the National Institutes of Health, Office of Research Facilities, Division of Environmental Protection, as part of a larger effort to promote health in the built environment. Our research team noted that based on extensive experience, there is a need for more research on the impact that materials and conditions in the built environment have on occupant health. Additionally, existing research data has not been compiled and made available in a form that is readily usable by building professionals for integrating health protective features in the design and construction of buildings. Toward meeting these needs our research team set out to compile data on substances in the built environment that may cause or aggravate asthma, a disease of high and increasing prevalence and major economic importance. This list should be a valuable resource for identifying asthma triggers and asthmagens, minimizing their use in building materials and furnishings, and contributing to our larger goals of fostering healthier built environments.

Polygala senega Rare Plant Profile. New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, Division of Parks and Forestry, New Jersey Forest Service, Office of Natural Lands Management, New Jersey Natural Heritage Program, Trenton, NJ. 10 pp. Polygala senega Rare Plant Profile, Page 2 of 10 Life History Polygala senega, also known as Seneca snakeroot, is a perennial herb in the milkwort family, Polygalaceae. Although this species is widely distributed throughout eastern and northern North America, it is of conservation concern within a large portion of its range, as its root has been collected extensively for medicinal purposes (Welborn 2011). Indigenous Seneca people used the plant to treat snakebites, hence the plant’s common name, and it was later used by European settlers as an emetic, purgative, diuretic, expectorant, and tonic in treatment of pneumonia, asthma, bronchitis, and diarrhea (Burns 1986). Plant height ranges between 15cm-30cm, with a taproot and few to several simple stems from a thick, woody crown. Leaves are arranged spirally, ovate to ovate-lanceolate or elliptic-lanceolate, between 1cm-3cm long. Most leaves are pale green below and dark green above. The lowest leaves are reduced or scale-like and purplish in color (Turcotte 1997).

  • The Breath of Life: Respiratory Function and Botanical Medicine
    Applied Phytotherapeutics The Breath of Life: Respiration By Terry Willard ClH, PhD, Todd Caldecott ClH Session 3 The Breath of Life: Respiratory Function and Botanical Medicine Introduction We usually take one of the most fundamental and transformative elements of life for granted: breathing. Through the breath, we share air with all other humans and many forms of life on the planet; we form a oneness with the trees and other plant life through our symbiotic exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange relationship with them through the oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange. We breathe each other in! ©2019 Wild Rose College of Natural Healing All Rights Reserved. 1 Applied Phytotherapeutics The Breath of Life: Respiration By Terry Willard ClH, PhD, Todd Caldecott ClH Session 3 This connects us deeply with the ecology of the planet, as well as states of Being. Remember, the origin of the word “inspiration” comes from the concept of bringing the breath of spirit into you. Every time we breathe in, we not only bring air into our lungs but Prana as well. The two Lungs Hug our Heart with each Breath. Hugged by Prana. Breathing is primarily an autonomic process that most of us are unaware of until some stressor—be it strenuous exercise or the induction of fight or flight mechanisms—calls our attention to it. We especially become conscious of the act of breathing when we cannot breathe, for example when swimming or trapped underwater, or because of a disease such as asthma or anaphylaxis. Breath is our most immediate and vital form of nourishment, and from an Ayruvedic perspective, is synonymous with the flow of consciousness, and all activities of the body.
