1-25-11 Audio Interview with Total Nutraceutical Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB: TNUS)
Just for the record, Dr. Hausman was on Coast to Coast last night. Brilliant; refreshing to see a physician with an open mind towards supplements, complementary medicine, etc. That said, I know nothing about the stock, but I can understand why some people may have drunk the Kool-Aid. Maybe he's a better doctor than caregiver for shareholders(?)
"TNUS News" Total Nutraceutical Solutions Acquires Ergothioneine Transporter License from the University of Cologne, Germany Ergothioneine is a Natural Organic Potent Antioxidant
http://www.marketwatch.com/story/total-nutraceutical-solutions-acquires-ergothioneine-transporter-license-from-the-university-of-cologne-germany-2010-03-10?reflink=MW_news_stmp
STEVENSON, Wash., Mar 10, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Total Nutraceutical Solutions, Inc. (TNS) /quotes/comstock/11k!tnus (TNUS 0.15, +0.01, +7.14%) announced today that the company has acquired from the University of Cologne, Cologne, Germany (the "University"), an exclusive license agreement on the invention (the "Invention") entitled "Ergothioneine Transporter," owned by the University. The license comprises the patent application entitled "Identification of Ergothioneine Transporter and Therapeutic Uses Thereof." This transporter is present in human cells, especially red and white blood cells, has a gene symbol SLC22A4, and can efficiently move the antioxidant L-Ergothioneine (ERGO) across cell membranes.
ERGO is a unique naturally occurring potent antioxidant that is abundant in most plants and animals. ERGO cannot be manufactured by humans and therefore is available only from dietary sources. Highest levels of ERGO are found in a number of human organ systems including liver, kidney, the eye, seminal fluid, and red blood cells. Although many plant and animal species contain Ergothioneine, only few can make it, the others absorb it from their diet, or in the case of plants, from their environment. ERGO is synthesized by mushrooms and mycobacteria in soil where it is readily absorbed by plants through their roots. The biological significance of ERGO is only now beginning to be understood; this important nutrient plays a dual role in both energy regulation and in protecting cells from oxidative damage. Inflammation and oxidative damage occur together and are associated with many human diseases including diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, fibromyalgia, Alzheimer's disease, cancer, and even early aging.
Scientists worldwide are recognizing the important potential role of ERGO and its unique specific transporter in human physiology and disease. Furthermore, ERGO might represent a new and important Vitamin.
Prof. Dr. Dirk Grundemann, University of Cologne, Germany, a discoverer of the ERGO transporter, states in a published scientific paper, "Supplementation of ERGO to correct a dietary deficit could provide a new therapeutic strategy for chronic inflammatory diseases." (Biochemical Pharmacology 74 (2007), 309-316; www.sciencedirect.com)
Dr. Solomon Snyder, Department of Neuroscience, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine recently published an article entitled "The Unusual Amino Acid L-Ergothioneine Is a Physiologic Cytoprotectant." (Cell Death and Differentiation (2009), 1-7; www.nature.com/cdd) Dr. Snyder makes the following statement: "Because of its dietary origin and the toxicity associated with its depletion, ET (ERGO) may represent a new vitamin whose physiologic role includes antioxidant cytoprotection."
"The acquisition of the ERGO transporter license is further evidence of the role of Total Nutraceutical Solutions (TNS) as a global leader in the research and development of mushrooms and their contained potent antioxidants and bionutrients," stated Marvin S. Hausman MD, CEO, TNS. "ERGO may finally be recognized as a new important vitamin with a key role in protecting human cells and tissues against the ravages of many diseases. TNS has positioned itself as a global leader in the research and development of natural organic whole food dietary supplements, with increased concentrations of needed antioxidants such as ERGO and Vitamin D. The company has also taken on the mission to educate people with the concept of proper whole food nutrition based on Prevention, Not Intervention."

Total Nutraceutical Solutions Research Data Reveals Ability to Control Oxidative Stress
Total Nutraceutical Solutions, Inc. (TNS) (OTCBB:TNUS), announced today that it has filed a Provisional Use Patent application on the ability of a proprietary natural organic mushroom formula to control oxidative stress. Oxidative or inflammatory stress is caused by the release of free radicals or reactive oxygen species (ROS) within cells and tissues of the body. Healthy cells and tissues normally neutralize ROS in order to stay alive. When production of ROS overwhelms the body’s normal defense mechanisms, oxidative damage to cellular DNA occurs and can lead to cell death. Research indicates a strong link between oxidative stress, release of ROS and inflammation and disease, examples being diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, fibromyalgia, Alzheimer’s disease, cancer and even early aging.
Oxidative or inflammatory stress was dramatically induced in the Drosophila melanogaster fruitfly model by the toxic agent, Paraquat, and the end-point of death was evaluated. The proprietary formula consisted of the organic edible mushroom Agaricus blazei Murill (AbM) produced by Sylvan Bio, Inc. that was stimulated with Ultraviolet-B light to produce a specific amount of increased natural Vitamin D2. This TNS investigator-blinded study showed that AbM with D2 was able to counteract and/or neutralize the oxidative stress effect and resulted in a 30% increase in survival. Vitamin D2 by itself had no effect on survival.
TNS has acquired, from The Penn State Research Foundation, an option to license the technology used to stimulate increased levels of Vitamin D2 within mushrooms, such as AbM. This patent, “Methods and Compositions For Improving The Nutritional Content of Mushrooms and Fungi,” was published in the United States on October 29, 2009 and has an initial filing date of April 23, 2008.
Paraquat is a toxic chemical that is widely used as an herbicide and produces oxidative stress by creating unstable reactive oxygen species. When reactive oxygen species contact cells in the body, or the DNA within cells, the reaction is damaging and can cause the cell to die or the DNA to mutate. The results of this study suggest that antioxidants, such as those contained within Vitamin D2 enriched AbM mushrooms can absorb the reactive oxygen molecules before they are able to cause damage.
“These study results open the door to a new whole food natural approach to combating inflammation, oxidative stress, and associated diseases,” stated Marvin S. Hausman, MD, CEO, Total Nutraceutical Solutions, Inc. “This study and previous TNS studies with Vitamin D2 enriched Agaricus blazei Murill validates the commercial potential of our company’s technology in producing a whole, natural food that supports a person’s mission to live a long and healthy life. The fact that a single nutrient, such as vitamin D2, was ineffective is further acknowledgement that single nutrients are not the answer to health; whole foods are! TNS has under development a natural Vitamin D2 mushroom-based whole food nutritional supplement that it plans to release in the first quarter 2010. This innovative organic plant-based form of natural vitamin D2 will provide an alternative to traditional vitamin D3 supplements which are animal-based.”

hey
how ? can you help me ?
thanks hugo
what a beauty short here raspoetin...
You guys done drinking the coolaid and back to reality?
I was getting pumped this on my blackberry from two penny sites like every couple hours.
It was tempting but a mushroom that's going to be a cure all was a stretch.
I've got some good one's in my garage that will do some good if you know what I mean.
Yes.. yes you CAN do that : )
laurap
isn't it possible to short the hell out of these promotions, i am serious, one would be rich , just following this paid pumpers, let it run 3 days and then short the hell out of it
1.2 to .5 wow
tnus down another 32% - you made a great trade congrats!
yes, thats just about my take.. also see some real nice adds here today..looking forward to the tropics..gl..eom
Unfortunately I must agree that this particular rise is due to a Pump and Dump. I got an email about this from a pump and dump place too. Was not the one mentioned tho.
I've been watching Trypennystocks.com for the majority of this year, and so far they have had no long term gainers.
Their hand has been in: NGHI, OPCN, CNWI, TNUS, CGCA, ADEC, DANR... just to name a few.
Granted, these stocks do rise on a variable scale. Several of them went up 300% in a matter of a few days. Unfortunately they all came back down to their previous level or in many cases, below where they started.
With that in mind, maybe a cautious investor would take advantage of this rise, and exit to rebuy when it floors?
And no, I am NOT paid to wreck stocks, I am merely a private investor who is trying to make a buck so I can continue staying home and watching my kids grow up.
I hope you all make tons of money : )
My streamer shows that as well. A purchase of 132,000 shares @ 1.24 after hours...what is going on???
They painted @ 1.24 is on my streamer but should be .77 .
I dont know about you but I got in early made my money and got out. end of story.... stop losses was set at 1.15 incase this happened to run today but it didn't so i got out smelling like roses

Total Nutraceutical Solutions Enters Into Agreement With Model Biosystems to Test Proprietary Mushroom Compounds in Suppressi...
Total Nutraceutical Solutions, Inc. (TNS) (OTCBB:TNUS), announced today that the company has started evaluating several proprietary mushroom compounds for activity in controlling the development of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). TNS was informed by Model Biosystems, Inc. (MBS), San Clemente, CA, that a recent experiment in Drosophila melanogaster flies (Drosophila) showed that certain TNS proprietary mushrooms had unusual anti-inflammatory activity. MBS was of the opinion that TNS should evaluate these mushroom samples in a special MBS biologic model for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). This proprietary AD model uses a genetic mutant of Drosophila that was developed in the laboratory of Dr. Krishna Bhat, University of Texas, Galveston, Texas. This unique live model system can evaluate the activity of a given compound/ingredient in controlling biologic reactions and compounds that are associated with the development of human AD. The organic whole food mushrooms developed by TNS are being studied, pursuant to a signed research agreement, dated Friday, October 30, 2009, in a double-blinded investigator protocol; the total study will involve over 1,000 Drosophila with 120 organisms in each test group.
Drosophila melanogaster, or fruit-fly is widely used in scientific and medical research. Its importance for human health was recognized by the award of the Nobel Prize for medicine in 1995, for work on the genetic control of early embryonic development. Mutant flies with defects in any of several thousand genes are available, and the entire genome has recently been sequenced. Drosophila helped in the development of drugs to combat pathogens responsible for a range of diseases from skin infections to pneumonia and meningitis. Recent research with fruit-flies has focused on the pathology of Alzheimer’s disease, particularly because of the similarity between human and fly brains and the conservation of the AD genetic pathway.
“The discovery and development of organic whole foods that positively impact or help prevent diseases are welcome breakthroughs in healthcare, as more and more people demand natural alternatives to prevent disease,” stated Marvin S. Hausman MD, CEO, TNS. “We believe that the unique, proprietary technology developed by TNS and used in the production of our natural organic specialty mushrooms, contributes significantly to the potential success of this new Alzheimer’s disease study to be undertaken by TNS and MBS.”
“I am pleased that MBS is able to offer TNS the services of our biotechnology testing in their research and development of natural organic mushrooms for alternative medical approaches to preventing human diseases,” stated Malli Varanasi, President, MBS. “Alzheimer’s disease is a terrible human affliction and new preventative measures would be well-received by all people.”

Total Nutraceutical Solutions to Offer Mushroom-Based Vitamin D Supplement

As of 11:05 AM ET 10/30/09
Total Nutraceutical Solutions, Inc. has announced that the company has formulated and will launch a natural whole food mushroom-based Vitamin D supplement.
In a release, the Company noted that this supplement is plant-based and not animal-based and provides a new approach to Vitamin D supplementation in health-conscious individuals. A proprietary grown mushroom, Agaricus blazei Murill (AbM) by Sylvan Bio, Inc. and Creekside Mushrooms Limited will be stimulated with UV light to produce natural organic Vitamin D2 within the mushroom. The need for this product is underscored by the following statement in the October 26 issue of the Archives of Internal Medicine: "The worldwide prevalence of Vitamin D deficiency is striking and more than 40 percent of the population may be Vitamin D deficient." (Vol.169 No.19, pp.1806-1808).The importance of the timing of this product launch and the need for a natural whole food form of Vitamin D is further evidenced by a recent statement by the Office of Dietary Supplements, National Institutes of Health, that the second-best source of Vitamin D is 3 ounces of mushrooms enriched with Vitamin D. Many medical organizations, including the American Academy of Pediatricians, have advocated increased intake of Vitamin D, especially in children. Children's Hospital Boston reports that 62 percent of children taking multivitamins had below normal levels of vitamin D (USA Today, October 26). TNS has developed technologic capability that will allow production of a daily oral encapsulated natural supplement that contains enough Vitamin D equal to or greater than ten 8-ounce servings of Vitamin D fortified milk, at a cost that is affordable by most people.
Vitamin D, also called the "sunshine vitamin," has recently received much attention as a needed nutritional supplement to improve human health. Decreased levels of Vitamin D have been associated with a range of diseases, such as osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, cancer of the breast, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and many others.
"As a doctor, I receive no greater pleasure than having the opportunity to create products that can help people live longer and healthier lives," said Marvin S. Hausman MD, CEO, Total Nutraceutical Solutions, Inc. "Vitamin D deficiency is worldwide, is implicated in many diseases, and this product has the potential to provide a needed nutritional answer to this problem."
"I am very excited that our new process is being commercially utilized to produce Vitamin D-rich dietary supplements made from the highly nutritious Agaricus blazei mushroom," said Robert B. Beelman Ph.D., Professor of Food Science, Pennsylvania State University. "I believe this product will be the first of its kind made from a whole food that will appeal to health conscious individuals that desire to consume a plant-based diet."
Total Nutraceutical Solutions, Inc. (TNS), is a nutraceutical company with a focus on discovering, formulating and marketing products composed primarily of organic natural mushroom compounds that contain bioactive nutrients for potential health benefits.
