Abstract: A novel treatment for wart and related disorders such as papillomas derived from extracts of pepper, ginger, and related plant species containing vanillyl (FIG. 3), and piperidine (FIG. 7) ring structures typical of the pungent principals found in pepper, and ginger. The pepper extracts, which also possess antifungal properties are demonstrated in the topical treatment of warts.

Abstract: A new class of general antiinfective agents extracted from pepper, ginger, and other plant species containing vanillyl and piperidine ring structures typical of the pungent principal found in pepper and ginger. The role of these structures, their attached hydrocarbons groups, and other agents found with the plant extract is demonstrated in the topical treatment of dermatophyte infections, tissue injuries, and abnormal proliferations of keratin.

Abstract: A drinking mug or tumbler-like device self equipped to rapidly transform its contents into a congealed, or very low temperature liquid condition comprising an inner container enclosed within a larger outer container that is filled with a water based refrigerant in the space therebetween, and hermetically sealed with a special seal gasket arrangement. In preparation for use, the device in placed in a refrigerator freezer until the refrigerant is solidified. The contents are then poured into the container and cooled as heat is absorbed by the refrigerant through the walls of the inner container. The specially proportioned inner container aids transfer of heat energy to speed cooling of the contents, along with a fabric which aids in the distribution of thermal energy throughout the refrigerant, and also controls the degree of congealment within the beverage, and refrigerant.
