[What is Huperzine A]

Huperzia is a type of moss that grows in China. It is related to club mosses (the Lycopodiaceae family) and is known to some botanists as Lycopodium serratum . The whole prepared moss was used traditionally. Modern herbal preparations use only the isolated alkaloid known as huperzine A. Huperzine A is an alkaloid found in huperzia that has been reported to prevent the breakdown of acetylcholine, an important substance needed by the nervous system to transmit information from cell to cell. Animal research has suggested that huperzine A’s ability to preserve acetylcholine may be greater than that of some prescription drugs. Loss of acetylcholine function is a primary feature of several disorders of brain function, including Alzheimer’s disease . Huperzine A may also have a protective effect on brain tissue, further increasing its theoretical potential for helping reduce symptoms of some brain disorders.

[Function] Used in alternative medicine, huperzine A has been found to act as a cholinesterase inhibitor, a type of medicine used to prevent the breakdown of acetylcholine (a chemical essential to learning and memory).

Not only used as a treatment for Alzheimer’s disease, huperzine A is also said to enhance learning and memory and to protect against age-related cognitive decline.

In addition, huperzine A is sometimes used to boost energy, increase alertness, and aid in the treatment of myasthenia gravis (an autoimmune disorder that affects the muscles).

1 Corinthians 7: 1 – 11: When it comes to same sex attraction, there are many lessons being taught by the world. “You are born gay and should not go against how you have been made”, “God wants you to be happy, so embrace your homosexuality” and “You can’t change who you are, you should just accept it”. In this sermon, Martin Morrison shows that there is a different teaching given from the bible and it’s a truth that provides great freedom.

In this passage, Paul touches on two opposing views on sex. One which says sex is wrong and the other which says singleness is wrong. Paul refutes both of these arguments, encouraging those struggling with sexual temptation to marry and have sex. Paul delights in those who are single. Martin uses this as a basis to not only speak to heterosexuals, but encourage those who suffer with same sex attraction to consider how God wants them to live.
