  • Patent number: 7674482
    Abstract: The methods and compositions for potentiating pharmaceuticals with amino acid based medical foods provides improved cognitive function; induced and maintained sleep; reduced pain, inflammation, blood pressure, anxiety, asthma, duration of viral infection, insulin resistance, and appetite; and treated depression. The amino acid based medical foods, co-packed with at least one selected pharmaceutical, potentiate the pharmaceutical by enhancing the production of neurotransmitters through the oral administration of neurotransmitter precursors, along with natural plant and animal substances that stimulate uptake of the neurotransmitter precursors, cause release of neurotransmitters, cause disinhibition of the neuronal brake, and activate adenylate cyclase in order to avoid tachyphylaxis and prevent pharmacologic tolerance.

  • Patent number: 7601369
    Abstract: This invention describes a method and composition to enhance the synthesis and release of the neurotransmitters by the oral administration of neurotransmitter precursors, along with natural plant substances that stimulate uptake of the neurotransmitters precursors, while adding natural plant substances that activate adenylate cyclase in order to avoid attenuation and prevent pharmacologic tolerance. The invention describes compositions for a medical foods that are designed to improve cognitive function, induced sleep, a improve Parasympathetic function, improve autonomic balance, increase nitric oxide production, reduce blood pressure, increase blood flow, and treat virus infections. The compositions include amino acids such as choline, herbs such ginkgo biloba, and other foods such as coca. The invention also describes the use of physiologic tests such as 24 hour ECG monitoring to create the appropriate combinations and assess the useful proportions.

  • Publication number: 20050010123
    Abstract: A quantitative method for measuring a cardiac function interval is described as well as its application to differentiating among populations of patients. Once such populations are characterized, said method can be used as a diagnostic test for individual patients when their measured data is compared against the composite data collected by the methods herein. Beat-to-beat electrocardiographic interval data is collected over an extended period of time, such beat-to-beat data being obtained from more than one subject, the beat-to-beat interval data from each subject is then used to create a composite histogram. A series of bins representing a histogram, each of which has a value range, is defined for each subject. The collected data are organized into the bins in accordance with the value of the data and the value range of the bin, thereby creating a set of bins of each interval for each subject. A composite histogram from the set of patients is constructed by summing the data from each bin.
