About Andreas Papas
ANDREAS PAPAS, Ph.D., born in Cypress, received his Ph.D. Degree in Nutritional Biochemistry from the University of Illinois. Among his other academic honors, he was named Fulbright and Wright Scholar as a top graduate student.
Dr. Papas is the Founder and President of Yasoo Health, Inc., a Nutraceuticals Company in Johnson City, Tennessee. Yasoo Health is focused on the prevention and management of chronic disease utilizing natural compounds, based on the latest science and research. Dr. Papas is an Adjunct Professor at the James Quillen College of Medicine at East Tennessee State University, Johnson City; Senior Scientific Advisor, Cancer Prevention Group, Harvard School of Public Health, Boston, Massachusetts; and Senior Scientific Advisor, University of Athens School of Medicine in Greece.
Dr. Papas has studied vitamin E, antioxidants and nutraceuticals in nutrition and health and has extensive experience in research, development and introduction of new products. He promoted the whole family of vitamin E compounds including all four tocopherols and all four tocotrienols, as it is found in our food, as the most effective way to take supplemental vitamin E. Dr. Papas was quite skeptical at first regarding the efficacy of nutritional supplements. Years of research to the contrary led him to change his beliefs. Projects in the mid 1980’s to establish the difference between natural and synthetic vitamin E further confirmed his opinion that natural compounds are the most effective. It is now officially recognized by the American Academy of Science that natural vitamin E has twice the bioavailability of the synthetic version.
In addition, Dr. Papas has devoted years of research to the effectiveness of antioxidants, such as vitamins C, E and selenium, against chronic disease states such as cancer. His passion and focus now is teaching the world how to be healthier utilizing natural compounds. He has published widely in scientific, trade and popular journals and is the editor of the scientific book Antioxidant Status, Diet, Nutrition and Health and the author of the popular book The Vitamin E Factor.
Yasoo Health was awarded a NIH grant in 2002 for the study of nutrient malabsorption in cystic fibrosis patients, and has submitted grants for further study in diabetic retinopathy, inflammatory bowel disease, and to study the role of antioxidants in the prevention and management of other diabetic complications.

Good afternoon. I'm a first time speaker, and I thank you for this opportunity to speak to this group. Noreen told me that they have an accent and they should be talking slowly and color when Lawrence talks. I listen. I know this, that most of the speakers have a book and I have a book is called The Neiderman. If I have thought and I wanted to start with a story from a chapter of my book, because that will bring forward the message that that Mini is more than one. Understood. But it goes like this. What do they have in common?
They tried it glycerin. The Nobel Prize, the moppets, the Niagara and gunmetal call for gunmetal kaufer on is a technical term for one of the forms of by the mini. And indeed, they have something in common. You may know that that train into the glycerin was first produced in Sweden. And Alfred Nobel was the equivalent of our industry patriarchs in the United States. It's like every fortnight, man. He became very rich. And there was no obvious also that the people that will be working in the factories were rarely get the carbon tax. And they if they did cut apart, they would get it when they were on vacation or on the weekends. This observation is they want to led to lead to discovery.
Nitroglycerin is good for heart disease and it's used even today for angina.
When Alfred Nobel. When he became old, he also got sick with heart disease.
And his doctors wanted him to take nitroglycerin. Of course, he was very reluctant to do that because nitroglycerin taken orally causes severe headache, very, very kind of side effects.
Actually, he commented that the product that made him really very rich, he had tweeted and get a big headache out of it. Well, how nitroglycerin really works in helping cover progs. It took several decades to discover about and that discovery led to the award of Nobel Prize in 1998 for my former D.C. and that magic compound that is in our system is called nitric oxide. Very, very simple molecule, the nitrogen and oxygen together. Yeah, it plays a very clearly GLADD role in our health. This is the compound that dilates our arteries. That's why nitroglycerin works when we get the large number of nitroglycerin that's to dilate arteries. But in addition to that is something that our body is such a powerful molecule that our body uses to fight bacteria found giant parasite. And to defend against Ramos. Now, where have we got the connection now between Alfred Nobel, TNT and the Nobel Prize? The next connection
