Abstract: Described herein is a method of remediating a water source of a target aquatic life. The method comprises collecting at least one target species of aquatic life from a water source, separating an oil from the solids of the target aquatic life, and refining a polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) mixture from the oil. The water source is at least partially remediated by collecting the at least one target species of aquatic life from the water source.

Abstract: The present invention includes compositions and methods for reducing at least one of fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, VLDL cholesterol, a cholesterol:HDL ratio, triglycerides, or increasing a healthy microbiome comprising a synergistic amount of a fiber blend, a polyphenol blend, and a multivitamin supplement in an amount sufficient to lower at fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, VLDL cholesterol, a cholesterol:HDL ratio, triglycerides, or increasing a healthy microbiome.

Abstract: Elevated cholesterol levels, especially low lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), leads to atherosclerosis—which may increase the risk of heart attack, stroke, and peripheral artery disease. Statins are common medications that can help lower cholesterol levels. However, myopathy can be a serious side effect that prevents patients from taking statins and significantly decreases overall quality of life. Described herein are dosage forms containing select combinations of natural herbal extracts and phytonutrients having the surprising ability to lower LDL-C levels in amounts comparable to statin drugs without noted side effects such as myopathy.

Abstract: Described is a natural product-containing supplement that enhances intracellular concentration of bioactive molecules through inhibition of MDR efflux pumps. Specifically described are dosage forms for administration to a subject, the dosage forms having at least four ingredients selected from the group consisting of apigenin, cannabidiol, chrysin, harmine, caffeic acid, piperine, nobiletin, Hypericum perforatum extract, bee propolis, oleanolic acid, biochanin, luteolin, vanillin, honokiol, pterostilbene, and withaferin A. Upon administration to a mammalian subject, the dosage forms generally inhibit mis-regulated MDR efflux pumps that are responsible for pushing out good nutrients from the cell—thus increasing intracellular concentration of health-promoting compounds.

Abstract: Described, among other things, are dosage form for administration to a subject, the dosage forms having at least four ingredients selected from okra, quercetin, gypenosides from Gynostemma pentaphyllum, punicalagins from pomegranate, zinc gluconate, chromium picolinate, curcuminoids, cinnamon Ceylon, mangiferin, Gymnema sylvestre extract, Schisandra chinensis, bitter melon, and Costus igneus. Upon administration to a mammalian subject, the dosage forms generally promote the subject's health through the maintenance of a healthy blood sugar level.

Abstract: Described, among other things, are dosage forms for administration to a subject, the dosage forms having at least six ingredients are selected are from the group consisting of clove powder, rutin, hesperidin, baicalin, sulforaphane, moringa leaf extract, rosmarinic acid, guava leaf extract, Panax notoginseng, EGCG, propolis, coriander extract, cardamom extract, cinnamaldehyde, chlorogenic acid, caper fruit, vescalagin, nutmeg extract, and naringenin. The dosage forms can serve as inhibitors of quorum sensing by infectious agents. The described combinations of selected natural products have the ability to inhibit quorum sensing. Quorum sensing is a means by which bacteria and viruses communicate with each other and induce virulence in the body. This combination of natural products is preferably included in nutraceutical formulations in order to promote human immune health.

Abstract: Described, among other things, are dosage form for administration to a subject, the dosage forms having at least eight phytonutrients selected from resveratrol, berberine, epigallocatechin gallate, quercetin, dandelion root extract powder, curcuminoids, burdock root powder, Reishi mushroom extract powder, African mango seed extract, rosavins, ginkgolides, ellagic acid, Ginsengosides, and gingerols, The dosage forms can serve as biosignaling phytonutrient multi-supplement compositions capable of promoting a subject's health through the maintenance of at least one signal transduction cascade. In certain embodiments, the dosage form is administered to the, e.g., human female subject in order to reduce the symptoms of premenstrual syndrome in the subject.

Abstract: Provided herein are devices, systems, and methods for capturing toxic pollutants, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Certain embodiments of the present disclosure are related to a pollutant-absorbing material that includes an absorbent compound, such as sodium copper chlorophyllin, capable of binding to and capturing a toxic pollutant, and methods of making and using the material for the capture of toxic pollutants. The pollutant-absorbing material can be incorporated into an article worn by a person, such as a shirt or a facemask.

Abstract: The present invention includes compositions and methods for modifying the expression of microRNAs comprising: one or more plant secondary metabolites capable of beneficially regulating different genes in the human genome by modifying the expression of one or more microRNAs, wherein the one or more plant secondary metabolites are selected and provided in an amount selected to target the modification of one or more specific microRNA.

Abstract: The present invention includes a composition and method of producing aspirin in situ, the method comprising: identifying a subject in need of aspirin or aspirin-like compounds; and providing the subject with a composition comprising: a source of methyl salicylate, an acetyl donor, and L-Arginine, wherein the composition is effective to produce aspirin-triggered resolvins in the subject without the deleterious effect of the aspirin or aspirin-like compounds in the stomach.
