From WasteProduct to Bio-molecularCommunicationK.-H. Kubeczka

Charles E. Elson is Professor

of Nutritional Sciences at the

Department of Nutritional Sciencesat the College of Agricultural and

Life Sciences at the University

of Wisconsin-Madison. He has

pioneered research into the

astounding antitumor effects

of terpenoid (essential oil)

components, foreshadowingmajor changes in the role certain

oils play in conventional science

as well as aromatherapy.

Charles E. Elson

Dr. Dennis M. Peffley researches

and lectures at the Department

of Pharmaceutical Biology of the

Finch University of the Chicago

Medical School. His research has

greatly improved the understand-

ing of how terpenoids distinguishbetween tumor and healthy cells

and prevent tumor growth.

Dennis M. Peffley

Antitumor effects ofEssential Oil Components

Karl-Heinz Kubeczka is Professor

for Pharmaceutical Biology at the

University of Hamburg and one

of the world's most prominent es-

sential oil researchers. Under his

direction, first in Wrzburg and

later Hamburg, an immense bodyof knowledge on analysis, com-

position and pharmacology of es-

sential oils has been accumulated.

He is one of the founders of the

International Symposium on Es-

sential Oils (held the 31st time this

year: ISEO 2000). Prof. Kubeczkawill review the dramatic changes

in how secondary metabolites are

viewed. Not long ago essential

oils were considered metabolic

waste materials. Research has

reversed this view, uncovering a

diverse range of tasks essential

oils fulfill in the plant organism's

quest for survival.

Jeffrey C. Yuen is the 88th Gen-

eration Taoist Master of Yu Ching

Huang Lao Pai, Yellow Emperor/

Lao Tsu Sect, ordained by 87th

Generation Taoist Master YuWen. He has been immersed in

the study of Taoism and Chinese

Medicine since early childhood.

Mr. Yuen offers unparalleled

knowledge of the traditions of

Chinese medicine that fully inte-

grate physical, psychological andspiritual aspects of medicine. Mr.

Yuen will give two lectures, one

outlining the energetic (yin/yang)

and elemental (wood/fire/earth/

metal/water) qualities of essential

oils and another proposing TCM

strategies for the use of essentialoils as constitutional treatment for

cancer patients.

Jeffrey C. Yuen John Steele

New

While western aromatherapy

derives much of its appeal from

successful infection treatments,

TCM views essential oils as con-

stitutional remedies. Accordingly,they are uniquely predisposed to

influence conditions like breast

cancer, in which 'essence' (yuan

qi) is implicated.

The very nature of essential oils

to stimulate the senses leads tothe recognition of aromatherapy

as a self-differentiating therapy,

effective in changing destructive

patterns tied to the way we see

the world. This provides new

insights for the use of essential

oils for chronic and autoimmuneconditions.

Absolute Divine:

Rare and Exotic Botani-

cal Absolutes

Absolutes contain a much broad-

er range of chemical constituents

than essential oils. This shows

in the exquisite fragrances of

many absolutes, which have no

counterpart among essential oils.

The author shares his insights of

decades of experience on thepuzzling range and tantalizing

depth of phenomena which can

be conveyed by these divine

Dipl. Ing. Klaus Drbeck has

specialized for many years in

trade promotion of medicinal and

aromatic plants from developing

nations. He will recount his jour-

neys in search of elusive oils.

As essential oils become valu-

able commodities, political re-

alities affect availability andprice, as shown by the shift in

Helichrysum supply: from French

summer crops to fall crops from

Bosnia-Herzegowina. Strange

circumstances (e.g. distilleries

where there are no plants) sur-

round the marketing of many oils.Mr. Drbeck will report on San-

dalwood and other examples.
