Ellen Pompea hit bottom, or at least pavement, when a car hit her on a busy street and sent her flying. On the way to the hospital, she slipped into a coma and entered an alternate world, one that reflected the struggles and challenges she felt inside. From the burning desert sands where she discovered Daniel, her Guardian Angel injured from a brutal attack by Marauders, to the Marauder's fight ring, the Ice Queen's palace and even the pits of hell, Ellen travels in search of who she was before her life fell apart. Daniel faithfully accompanies her every step of the way vowing to do whatever it takes to help her piece herself back together. And in the process, they discover a deep love neither can fathom yet both need in order to survive the ordeal. However, will it be enough to bring Ellen the healing she needs before her time runs out?

Strategies For Protecting Your Child's Immune System: Tools For Parents And Parents-to-be

Strategies for Protecting Your Child's Immune System is the first book to focus on prevention of environmental damage to the immune system of embryos, babies and older children. It provides expecting and existing parents, their families and physicians with science-based information to protect and proactively manage their child's immune system. Environmental exposures (pollutants, allergens, drugs, diet, physical factors) in the home, school and community can damage the developing immune system and increase the risk of lifelong chronic diseases such as allergies, asthma, type 1 diabetes, celiac disease and neurological problems. This book imparts specific tools to parents and their physicians to help keep the early-life immune system out of harm's way and minimize environmental health risk.

Dietary Components and Immune Function

Dietary Components and Immune Function focuses on immune modulation, immune mediated disease resistance, immune changes due to AIDS, immune modulated cancer therapy, and autoimmune diseases as modified by dietary supplement, bioactive foods and supplements. The potential value of such approaches in maintaining wellness and preventing disease are addressed by examining their effects in vitro and in vivo on innate and adaptive immune responses. Emerging fields of science and important discoveries relating to early stages of new nutriceuticals in cancer prevention, prior to clinical trials are also covered. This volume represents a single source of material related to nutriceuticals and their constituents as they relate to cancer therapy and prevention. As such the book will be essential reading for nutritionists, pharmacologists, health care professionals, research scientists, cancer workers, pathologists, molecular or cellular biochemists, physicians, general practitioners as well as those interested in diet and nutrition in disease resistance via immune regulation.
