A method and formulation for delivering a motion sickness antidote in a vaporized state using low temperatures to vaporize the formulation. The formulation contains an inert non-reactive compound that lowers the heat of vaporization of the formulation, and the motion sickness antidote. The formulation may optionally contain glycerin, alcohol, and/or water. Examples of inert non-reactive compounds that can sufficiently lower the heat of vaporization of the formulation include propylene glycol, vegetable glycerin and polysorbate. The formulation can be vaporized using a hand-held low temperature vaporizer or atomizer.

The preparation of an aqueous extract resulting from an aqueous extraction process of Cinnamomum aromaticum, Arctium lappa, Viticis fructus, Lonicera japonica, Acanthopanax gracilistylis, Raphanus sativus, Astragalus membranaceus and Hordeum vulgare and the chemical composition comprising said extract or fraction thereof, and the use of said composition or fraction thereof for treating or preventing cancers and inflammation related diseases, hair loss, stimulating hair growth, increasing energy production, and boosting immunity.

This invention provides a method for preparing electrospraying particles to improve stability of polyphenol including the following steps: preparing a pectin-silica composite; adding polyphenolic compounds into the pectin-silica composite to prepare a core solution; and coaxial electrospraying the core solution and a shell solution to prepare electrospraying particles loaded polyphenol. This method utilizes a pectin-silica composite as a polyphenol loading carrier, improves the encapsulating efficiency of polyphenols, reduces the contact probability of polyphenols with oxygen and water, and improves the stability of polyphenols; and an acidic aqueous solution is used as a shell solution to synergize with the pectin-silica composite to further improve the stability of polyphenols.

The present disclosure provides compositions comprising combinations of one or more lectins, sulfated polysaccharides from marine algae, and cannabinoids and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient or mixtures of excipients and methods of preparing such compositions.
