A NOTE FROM DONNA
++++++++++++++++

We have entered into our third year as a web business.
It seems so long ago, and yet so near, that we took the
steps to make this a reality, which enabled us to move to
an area of the country that we now love with a passion.
We haven't been here even three months and we are in
awe of what lies ahead of us as we pursue life purposes
in our own lives.

When you are taking baby steps toward a dream, it
doesn't seem like you are going anywhere, but you are!
Many people don't take that first step and become
crippled, unable to make their dreams come true. May I
encourage you to do otherwise! Believe dreams can
come true and begin to pursue them. They will come true!
In ways you never imagined.

To celebrate our second anniversary, we have a special
offer for you. Most of the people who order at our site
sign up for Wholesale Membership so they can save 35-40%
on their orders. If you haven't signed up yet, we want to
give you a gift for doing so this month. When you sign up,
send us your account number to request your free gift of
a bottle of Peppermint Oil. This essential oil is good for so
many things and can be carried in your purse or pocket to
avoid nausea, reflux, indigestion, bad breath, headaches,
and more. Read more about Peppermint Oil:
http://www.theherbsplace.com/Peppermint_100_Pure_Essential_Oil_p_47.html

For Wholesale Members, we'd also like to send a bottle to
you if you place a $40 or more order in February. Just send
us your order number after placing the order asking for the
Peppermint Oil.

Notification/request needs to be sent to this address:
SharingSunshine@theherbsplace.com

This offer is only good for our subscribers, which is why we
need the email. However, if you have friends who want to
participate, they only need to subscribe and then do as
instructed above.

Thanks to each of you for helping to make TheHerbsPlace.com
a successful internet business for the past two years! With
the introduction of our new natural pet food line, we're on
our way to better things for people and pets!

Great day to you!

MORNING SICKNESS LINKED TO STOMACH BACTERIA

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - A bacterial infection may be responsible for the
severe morning sickness some pregnant women experience, according to
researchers from Puerto Rico.

Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium that commonly causes stomach ulcers,
appears to be linked with severe cases of nausea and vomiting in pregnancy,
Dr. Nilda Santiago from Ponce Gastroenterology Research, reported here on
Monday at the annual meeting of the American College of Gastroenterology.

·TEI FU MASSAGE LOTION

This lotion is well known for it's ability to loosen up tight and sore
muscles/shoulders/necks......but did you know it will loosen up the
bronchials in the chest for breathing also?

Several folks have been using it that have trouble with wheezing and asthma..
The essential oils in it have a relaxing effect on things (that's why it
works for muscles) and they can breathe better after using it. Rub it into
the chest and on the back if possible in the lung area. Put your face
inside your shirt and breathe deep for about 5 minutes after applying....
till you can breathe better....helps to stimulate the removal of mucous too..

This is one of the top favorites for many people. Let me hear some of your
Tei Fu success stories.

·BRAIN PROTEX with HUPERZINE A

Huperzine A is an extract from a club moss (Huperzia serrata) used for
centuries. Its action has been attributed to its ability to strongly inhibit
acetylcholinesterase, the enzyme that breaks down acetylcholine.
Acetylcholine is involved in memory and learning.. Alzheimer's disease is a
condition where there's a relative shortage of acetylcholine.

These studies have shown that Huperzine A is many times more effective and
selective than tacrine (a cholinesterase-inhibiting pharmaceutical drug) in
inhibiting cholinesterase (Cheng 1996). Huperzine A has also been found to
be beneficial in patients with Alzheimer's disease. Scientists at Zhejiang
Medical University, in Hangzhou, China did a study with results that showed
58% of the patients treated with Huperzine A had improvements in memory,
cognition, and behavioral functions whereas only 36% of those on placebo
improved. No severe side effects were found. The researchers say, "Huperzine
A is a promising drug for symptomatic treatment of Alzheimer's disease."

A study was conducted with fifty-six patients suffering from multi-infarct
dementia (multiple small strokes) and one hundred patients with senile
memory disorders (Zhang 1991). Most patients had an improvement in memory.
Huperzine was even mentioned in JAMA as a possible herbal therapy for
Alzheimer's disease (Skolnick 1997).

Brain Protex contains Huperzine A and other ingredients that research has
shown to be effective for memory and cognitive function. Read more about

YOU'RE CRAZY

Two men are escaping from a Mental Hospital late one moonless night. They
get to the roof of the hospital and all they have to do is jump a pretty
good distance across to the next building and they are home free. The first
man, a psychotic and afraid of nothing, is willing to jump. The second man,
however, is afraid of the dark, and is seriously considering returning to
the hospital to deal with the issue.

The first man volunteers to jump across with the flashlight they have
brought with them, and then shine the light back across to the second man.
"You can walk across on the beam of light and we will be away."

"You must be crazy," replies the second man, "you'll turn the flashlight off
when I'm halfway across, and I'll fall!"
