In the past, we commonly used all parts of natural foods when we consumed a meal. Human eating patterns naturally accessed nutrients available from what was eaten and very little nutrients were wasted as a result. For example, when eating fish, the muscular parts of the fish were consumed along with other parts such as connective tissue. When eating plants, the edible portion of the plant was consumed in its entirety. Our bodies would then filter out what was not consumable, such as the outer shell of a kernel of corn for example. As this occurred, our bodies would extract what nutrients could be found in the food to sustain and grow the human form. This allowed use of local foods to provide nutrients which were available, but was somewhat limited in that foods not available locally could not be used in most cases. Over time, we learned to travel and to ship food from where it was produced to where it could be consumed. Additionally, we learned to prepare foods, removing portions of the food which were either inedible, or undesirable. Removing the inedible parts typically provided some benefit, while parts that were simply undesirable sometimes held valuable ingredients.

Chrysanthemum indicum strain appears to exhibit a variety of useful and beneficial health effects. Chrysanthemum has been variously described as antiphlogistic, blood tonic, depurative, febrifuge and vulnerary, providing a variety of benefits. It has been used to treat eye ailments, for example. It has also been used in relation to gonorrhoea. Moreover, chysanthemum has been used for treatment of headaches and migraine headaches in particular. Also, an essential oil obtained from chysanthemum is active on the brain center affected by Parkinson's disease.
The flowers in particular have been found by various researchers to be aperient, bitter, hypotensive, stomachic and vasodilating. They exhibit an antibacterial action in some cases, inhibiting growth of Staphylococcus, E. coli, Streptococcus, C. diphtheriae, and Bacillus dysenteriae. The flowers are used in the treatment of issues as diverse as furuncle, scrofula, deep-rooted boils, inflammation of the throat, eyes and cervix, eczema, itchiness of the skin and hypertension. Some research reports a rejuvenating effect of the flowers over time as well. Other research has shown chrysanthemum used to treat effects such as chest pain (angina), high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, dizziness and swelling. Thus, chrysanthemum has been shown to provide a wide array of potential health benefits.
Acerola cherry of the mappighia glare strain is known to have a variety of beneficial effects. Traditionally, the fruits have been used to treat dysentery, diarrhea, and liver disorders. Other ethnobotanical uses include as an astringent and for fever. The fruits also appear to have some antioxidant properties. The fruit is a relatively small red berry-sized fruit which often includes Vitamin C content on the order of sixty-five (65) times as much Vitamin C as is typically found in an orange.
The main micronutrients of Morinda citrifolia include vitamin C, niacin (vitamin B3), iron and potassium. Morinda citrifolia fruit contains a number of phytochemicals, including flavonoids, iridoids, fatty acids, lignans, scopoletin, catechin, oligo- and polysaccharides, beta-sitosterol, damnacanthal, and alkaloids.
Morinda citrifolia (Noni) has been extensively used in folk medicine by Polynesians for over 2,000 years. It has been reported to have broad therapeutic effects, including anticancer activity, in both clinical practice and laboratory animal models. The mechanism for these effects remains unknown.
Green fruit, leaves, and root or rhizomes of noni have been used in Polynesian cultures as a general tonic. It is reported that individuals take noni by mouth for colic, convulsions, cough, diabetes, painful urination, stimulating menstrual flow, fever, liver disease, constipation, vaginal discharge during pregnancy, malarial fever, and nausea. The leaves have been used in medicines for rheumatic aches and swelling of the joints, stomachache, dysentery, and swelling caused by a parasitic infection called filariasis. The bark has been used in a preparation to aid childbirth. The fruit juice is used for arthritis, diabetes, high blood pressure, muscle aches and pains, menstrual difficulties, headaches, heart disease, AIDS, cancers, gastric ulcers, sprains, depression, senility, poor digestion, atherosclerosis, circulation problems, and drug addiction. None is also used for smallpox, enlarged spleen, swelling, asthma, arthritis and other bone and joint problems, cancer, cataracts, colds, depression, digestive problems, and gastric ulcers. Other uses include high blood pressure, infections, kidney disorders, migraine headache, premenstrual syndrome, stroke, pain, and sedation.
The benefit of the composition includes restoring and enhancing cells. Our cells constantly deteriorate in daily life. If there is no support to restore the deterioration, cellular damage will affect the body functions. LINEXUS™ composition is a supplementary factor that can restore the cells to the body balance without drug and substance usage. When cells are restored, in the next process, LINEXUS™ composition may accordingly boost cell strength, equivalent to increasing the effectiveness and the number of cells, while maximizing physical and mental abilities After the cellular restoration and boosting the cell strength, the next challenge is the protection to maintain the long-lasting quality of the cells. LINEXUS™ dietary supplement may help to protect and delay the cellular deterioration. This will also result in improving the immune system, as the immune system no longer needs to activate against inflammation or other forms of deterioration. When the cell functions are systematically restored, boosted and protected, LINEXUS™ dietary supplement may directly enhance physical and mental capacity to go beyond limits at each age and to live life fully as the pace of life requires a strong response to maintain youth and vigor.
The health benefits of LINEXUS™ are also potentially of value to children, and help to develop the strength of new cells and protect cells from early deterioration. Both are beneficial to the development of body, intelligence, memory, and positive emotions. The physical results may include i) restore cells for normal growth in each stage, ii) recover from illness, iii) build muscle, v) boost the immune system, vi) reduce the risk of the incidence of disease, vii) promote growth to maximum effectiveness, viii) adjust height, ix) improve body growth, x) efficient immunity and xi) increase energy. The wound and injury healing properties are potentially of particular assistance to children, as the nutrients provided assist specifically with structures often injured in sports or other childhood activities.
The composition also helps to restore the old damaged cells, repair damaged body tissues, delay the cellular deterioration, inhibit free radicals, and help the process of skin cell renewal in adults for glowing skin and younger appearance. Providing building blocks as previously mentioned contribute to enhancing balance, reducing exhaustion from stress and demands of healing, improving concentration and work efficiency, reducing healing time and longer term pain, and boosting the immune system to stay healthy
Physical results may also include: a radiant and vibrant skin, younger appearance; reducing fatigue at work; restoring the reproductive system; refreshing the body; boosting the immune system; protecting against free radical formation; and preventing premature aging.
