A decade later, Cornell scientist Harry Gold no relation to Old was trying to figure out whether or not xanthines, a group of stimulants that included caffeine, really deserved their reputation as a remedy for angina. ❋ Gary Greenberg (2010)
For physiology the experimental proof that uric acid and the xanthines originate from one and the same parent form is of the greatest importance as it has provided the strongest support for the modern theory of the formation of uric acid from the nucleoproteins of the cell nucleus and from the purines contained therein. ❋ Unknown (1966)
Every piece of animal flesh is saturated with these excrements of the cells in the form of uric acid and many other kinds of acids, alkaloids of putrefaction, xanthines, ptomaines, etc. The organism of the meat eater must dispose not only of its own impurities produced in the processes of digestion and of cell metabolism, but also of the morbid substances that are already contained in the animal flesh. ❋ Henry Lindlahr (1893)
In individuals of different constitutions, accumulations of uric acid, xanthines, oxalates of calcium and various other earthy substances form stones, gravel or sandy deposits in the kidneys, the gall bladder and in other parts and organs. ❋ Henry Lindlahr (1893)
If acids, xanthines and oxalates of lime form earthy deposits along the walls of arteries and veins, these vessels harden and become inelastic, and their diameter is diminished. ❋ Henry Lindlahr (1893)
Caffeine and theobromine, the narcotic principles of coffee and tea, are xanthines; and so is the nicotine contained in tobacco. ❋ Henry Lindlahr (1893)
I have repeatedly stated that xanthines have the same effect upon the system as uric acid. ❋ Henry Lindlahr (1893)
Another brake is supplied by the waste products of metabolism in the system, the uric acid, carbonic acid, oxalic acid, etc., and the many forms of xanthines, alkaloids, and ptomaines. ❋ Henry Lindlahr (1893)
These, together with xanthines, poisonous alkaloids and ptomaines, are formed during the processes of protein and starch digestion and in the breaking down and decay of cells and tissues. ❋ Henry Lindlahr (1893)
From what has been said, it becomes clear why the meat-eater craves alcohol and xanthines. ❋ Henry Lindlahr (1893)
Peas, beans, lentils, mushrooms and peanuts, besides being very rich in uric acid-producing proteins, carry also large percentages of xanthines, which are chemically almost identical with uric acid and have a similar effect upon the organism and its functions. ❋ Henry Lindlahr (1893)
He found that certain xanthines and albuminoids derived from decaying animal matter were the most effective for this purpose and induced more rapid cell proliferation than any other substances he was able to procure. ❋ Henry Lindlahr (1893)
Hematologichematologic xanthines include tings in and dexamphetamine (3% to 9%), leukopenia, eosinophilia, and thrombocytopenia. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Tremors that are worse during supported contraction include essential tremor and also cerebellar and exaggerated physiologic tremors such as a hyperadrenergic state or hyperthyroidism xanthines can exaggerate physiologic tremor. ❋ Unknown (2008)
Hormones like cathecolamines and chemical compounds like xanthines found in the LYSE XL formula have lipolytic activity. ❋ Unknown (2008)
When by the taking of flesh foods the blood has become saturated with uric acid and the annoying symptoms of collaemia make their appearance in the forms of lassitude, headache and nervous depression, then alcohol and the xanthines contained in coffee, tea and tobacco will cause the precipitation of the acids from the circulation into the tissues of the body, and thus temporarily relieve the collaemic symptoms and create a feeling of well-being and stimulation. ❋ Henry Lindlahr (1893)
