A composition for modulating cytokines to regulate an inflammatory or immunomodulatory response. The composition can include at least one of rosehips, blueberry, blackberry, elderberry, cranberry, rosemary, clove, feverfew, nettle root, artichoke, reishi mushroom, olive extract, green tea extract, grape seed extract, resveratrol, Aframomum melegueta, boswellia serrata extract, boswellia forte, ipriflavone, tocotrienols, evening primrose oil, INM-176, borage oil, krill oil, at least one type of xanthophyll (e.g., astaxanthin), green coffee extract and ferulic acid. Specifically, a composition of the invention can include: rosehips and at least one of blackberry, blueberry, elderberry, and optionally krill oil; or rosehips, resveratrol and at least one of Aframomum melegueta and astaxanthin. Based on the cytokine modulation and cytokine response inhibition of the composition, it can be used to regulate an immunomodulatory and / or inflammatory response, and subsequently treat diseases and / or abnormal conditions associated with inflammatory response, for example, cardiovascular conditions, arthritis, osteoporosis and Alzheimer's disease.

A method and apparatus to brew coffee with cold water and automatically dispense it into a container after a specified brew time. Water and a packet of coffee grounds are introduced to a brew chamber to produce a coffee extract after a specified time and then delivered to a removable receiving container. The packet is compressed to release the maximum amount of extract from the packet. Extract can be diluted with additional water into the removable receiving container to create the beverage. The receiving container is filled and sealed for freshness.

The invention provides an hourglass shaped apparatus for cold brewing coffee, comprising a brew chamber, and extract chamber and a middle unit connecting the brew and extract chambers. The extract and brew chambers comprise two ends of the hourglass shaped middle unit. The brew chamber houses a free-standing self-contained filter containing coffee grounds inside a water-permeable barrier. Water is poured into the brew chamber to generate coffee extract through cold water infusion. After the brewing process, the apparatus is inverted, and the coffee travels into the extract chamber through the middle unit for dispensing. Coffee brewed in this manner is less acidic and more flavorful than the conventionally hot-brewed beverage. All the components of the apparatus, the filter, the brew chamber, the extract chamber, and the middle unit, are detachable.

A method of controlling body weight in humans by administering an amount of decaffeinated green coffee extract effective to treat a subject. A preferred green coffee extract contains a ratio of 4-caffeoylquinic acid (4-CQA) to total chlorogenic acids (tCGA) (5-CQA / tCGA) of from about 0.1 to about 0.2. More preferably, the green coffee extract comprises from about 6% to about 8% of 4-caffeoylquinic acid and has a total chlorogenic acid concentration that exceeds about 45%. A preferred method of administration consists of administering the green coffee extracts is a dosage of about 200 mg twice a day prior to meals on an empty stomach.

A method for elevating naturally recirculating dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) levels in a human subject, the method including generating a green coffee extract containing at least 20% chlorogenic acids by dry weight, generating a composition which includes the green coffee extract and is administrable to a human subject, and administering a therapeutically effective amount of the composition to the human subject, thereby elevating naturally recirculating DHEA levels.
