Antineoplastic
Each year, more and more people are getting cancer, especially lung and liver cancer. However, there are not enough good anti-cancer drugs. Fortunately, many herbal extracts have good antineoplastic activity. A plant-based diet can help shield you from cancer because plants are rich in anti-inflammatory and antioxidant substances that help us withstand exposure to ultraviolet radiation, air pollution and other noxious substances.Circulatory System Care
The circulatory system is an organ system that passes nutrients, gases, hormones, blood cells, etc. to and from cells in the body to help fight diseases, stabilize body temperature and pH, and to maintain homeostasis. It's no secret that cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in all modern nations. Half of the population dies of heart attacks, strokes and other diseases related to the circulatory system. Many herbal extracts are beneficial to the circulatory system.Men's Health Care

Erectile dysfunction is a frustrating sexual dysfunction which affects close to 18 million men in the U.S. This dysfunction is recognized by the inability to create or maintain an erection during sexual intercourse. Many chemicals from nature could be benefit men in this regard, such as yohimbine and saw palmetto extract.Antioxidant Supplements
Antioxidants are one kind of molecules, helping to neutralize harmful free radicals which can accelerate cellular oxidation. They provide an important and solid defense against the diseases caused by oxidative stress, such as cancer, heart disease, decline in brain function, immune system and aging. Because antioxidants are capable of stabilizing or deactivating the free radicals from oxidation reactions before they attack cells.
