resveratrol causes mammals to live longer
I figure halogate it to make the drug more active
Halogenation heightens activity at the receptor (splenda; chlorosucrose is 300 times sweeter than sugar; fluorinated cortisone is 700 times more powerful as a dermal pharmaceutical) as well as giving the drug
longer circulating metabolism
here is an herbal approach
put a branch of leaves at a water container full of likely prechemicals like chlorosucrose or various amino acids then let the leaves dry as herbs once they have absorbed the chemical plus made pharmaceutically valuable metabolites with it
thats kind of like cyborgherbalism yet it might be considered an authentic yet amplified plant product that way
the reason this is actually an idea is that to an herbalist, or even to me, plants have a wide range of deeper meanings; cyborgizing the herb might actually be culturally as well as physiologically meaningful; a cyborgherbalist might actually prescribe living plants that have been given 72 hours of prescribed growth medium as a functional medical food
just pour the package of liquid vitamins on the living wheatgrass then eat to have superbioavailable vitamins kind of thing

Apparently, the new lifeform, dubbed "Cynthia" contains a website address embedded in its genetic code, as well as the names of all the people involved in its creation - a sort of "credits" if you will. [zen_tom, May 21 2010]

It would upset the balance and cease to be herbalism were this done. |
|

This coincides nicely with the news of "Cynthia" the
first
wholly artificially created life-form, albeit from a
prototype provided by nature - as one main
application for this technology would be the
creation of active ingredients such as those found in
herbs. |

Yes, but fundamentally misconceived from the viewpoint of phytotherapy. Very useful indeed, but not really anything to do with herbalism unless i could easily put an artificial organism together from things i can find in the shed or something. I suppose i might get lucky if i come across a skip outside a molecular biology place. Maybe i should visit Cambridge after all. |

Doing things with lighter halogens to organic molecules is also nasty. |

Then again, herbalism is applied cybernetics. |
|

Applied marketing, more like. |

I was so hoping for a cyborg gerbil. |
|
| |
I get the chlororesveratrol okay (it's more active because it's more resistant to degradation), but where does the cyborg stuff come in? |
|

//halogate// ...
do you mean something like trans-4-chloro-3,5,4'-
trihydroxystilbene...
or do you mean a gate you pass
through to obtain, or after obtaining, a halo? |
|
| |
If it is applied marketing, it isn't very well applied. Part of it, for me, is to avoid alienation of use and exchange value. |

Halogate was the scandal which led to the expulsion of Satan from Paradise. |
