The following is excerpted from The Professional's Herbal Formula Handbook No. 1, comprising 81 pages of traditional information and recent scientific data that describes the medical properties, physiological action and therapeutic uses for each of the 24 ingredients outlined in this formula.

Adaptogenic, alterative, anabolic, antibiotic, anti-cachexic, anti-dyscratic, anti-infective, antioxidant, antiphlogistic (anti-inflammatory), antiseptic, antispasmodic, bacteriostatic (anti-bacterial), balsamic, calmative, cytophylactic, cytotoxic, depurative, detoxicant, disinfectant, diuretic, microbicidal (anti-microbial), nervine, rejuvenative, systemic relaxant, nerve sedative, spasmolytic, stimulant (circulatory and secretolytic), tonic, tranquilizer, tropho-restorative and viricidal (anti-viral).

Alleviates any general fluids dyscrasia (abnormal or pathological condition) within the blood vessels, tissue-systems and mucous membranes that leads to the onset of those conditions involving various aches, dull pain or throbbing sensations throughout the regions of the back, ears, extremities, feet, head, muscles, stomach or teeth, and eliminates any form of cachexia (state of malnourishment and general debility) throughout the blood vessels, tissue-systems or mucous membranes of the back, ears, extremities, feet, head, muscles, stomach or teeth; acts as a neuro-motor depressant, while displaying tranquilizing effects upon the brain and central nervous system; restores control over any deranged sensory or motor functions, and exhibits tropho-restorative and relaxant activity upon the nerve tissue in order to repair the debilitating effects of any longstanding or continuous nervous over-activity; acts directly upon the cerebro-spinal centers in order to control any nervous irritation, as well as upon the brain and central nervous system (due to the presence of the flavonoid scutellarin) by encouraging the production of natural endorphins which serve as tranquilizing agents; eases any nerve excitability or nervous headaches, as well as any form of hysteria accompanied by an inability to control the voluntary muscles; demonstrates antispasmodic properties, due to the presence of scutellarin; acts as a systemic relaxant, thereby exhibiting mild sedative and medium-strength spasmolytic effects upon any aching or painful throbbing conditions ranging from neuro-vegetative dystonia (disordered muscle tonicity) to dentition (colic); relieves the aches and pains associated with rheumatism, gout, headaches or neuritis, as well as any muscle or joint swelling in conditions involving rheumatoid arthritis; exhibits cytophylactic and cytotoxic activity in order to provide stronger cellular defense mechanisms against many physical or chemical agents, and displays anti-infective and disinfectant properties in order to promote increased resistance by destroying any invasive or harmful pathogenic bacteria, microbes or viruses that are often responsible for various infectious states or inflammatory conditions; exhibits bacteriostatic, microbicidal and viricidal activity in order to strengthen and increase the resistance in the bloodstream against any invasive or harmful bacteria or microbes, as well as to inhibit the further development of any infectious or inflammatory conditions; displays significant antiphlogistic activity in order to inhibit the formation of certain inflammatory compounds (such as histamine, leukotrienes, prostaglandin, serine proteases and thromboxanes), while reducing any severe inflammatory swelling associated with various aching or painful conditions by exerting an extremely positive influence towards correcting any blood vessel or tissue inflammation and various other internal inflammatory conditions; exhibits significant antiseptic activity by destroying the vitality of any organized living ferments in order to prevent the onset of putrefaction or septicemia, and precipitates the proteins in any inflamed tissues in order to provide a mildly antiseptic and protective coating (under which the regeneration of new tissue occurs) for the mucous membranes throughout the entire respiratory system; acts as an effective antiseptic in order to remove any septic conditions associated with tissue degeneration or ulceration, and promotes increased suppuration and a steady toning or restorative impression to the entire glandular system (especially the liver, spleen and lymph glands); alleviates the aching and paroxysmal pain associated with facial neuralgia, and relieves any headaches caused by incessant coughing spells; displays diuretic activity in order to expel any excessive uric acid accumulations that may adversely affect the nervous system, especially in those conditions involving arthritis, rheumatism, gout, bursitis, lumbago, hemorroids and varicose veins; relaxes the entire musculature in order to remove the aches and pains associated with muscle sprains, torn ligaments or pulled muscles, and eases any restless or fitful sleep-states caused by various aches, dull pain or painful throbbing sensations; eliminates any ovarian or uterine aches and pains, as well as the cramping and severe pain associated with amenorrhea (due to colds); exhibits anabolic activity in order to accelerate the production of DNA and RNA (which enhances the production of proteins in the form of antibodies), while increasing protein and lipid synthesis in the bone marrow and DNA/RNA content in the adrenals and lymph nodes (along with increased body weight and enhanced re-synthesis of glycogen and high-energy phosphate compounds); demonstrates powerful adaptogenic (balancing and strengthening) activity in order to increase the overall resistance of an organism towards any adverse influences or stressful conditions (whether they be physical, chemical or biological), especially throughout the immune system, bloodstream, musculature, and both the central (cerebro-spinal centers) and peripheral nervous systems; acts as a secretolytic stimulant in order to promote increased gastric, pancreatic or intestinal secretory and motor activity, and enhances greater peripheral circulation (due to its antioxidant activity); exhibits significant antioxidant effects in order to provide greater oxygen-transport capabilities throughout the bloodstream, as well as enhance the transport of additional oxygen directly into the cells and tissue-systems throughout the entire organism; acts as a circulatory stimulant by increasing the blood circulation in order to enhance greater nutrient transport, absorption and utilization, thereby accelerating the healing processes associated with the removal of any aching or painful conditions; demonstrates significant rejuvenative and restorative properties upon the basic plasma tissue-systems throughout the entire organism, thereby enhancing the production of vital bodily fluids while providing greater enrichment through increased assimilation of the various organic mineral salts; accelerates the recuperative processes that are essential in order to overcome any chronic degenerative or debilitative diseases or illnesses, while facilitating greater recovery response during convalescence in order to fully regain optimal health and well-being; activates the bodily processes of detoxification and elimination in order to cleanse and purify the bloodstream and tissue-systems, and increases the secretion and elimination of urine in order to provide further support to the inner cleansing process; displays alterative activity in order to correct any disordered bodily function, thereby activating increased alterations in both metabolic and tissue functions as a defensive measure against the onset of acute or chronic disease; exhibits restorative effects in order to regain increased vigor or vitality and greater strength, while enhancing normal tissue and metabolic functional capabilities; demonstrates alterative and restorative properties in order to re-establish healthy systemic functional capabilities, as well as to establish greater vascular tone throughout the entire organism (due to its ability to stimulate increased secretory flows); exhibits alterative effects in order to stimulate the anabolic growth processes, thereby enhancing the repair of any degenerated, deteriorated and debilitated cells or tissues (while promoting the elimination of any catabolic waste materials); displays tonifying effects in order to permanently enhance the overall energy-levels throughout the entire organism, without adversely affecting the functional capabilities of any particular organ or system.
