Taoist Tonic Herbs

Spring Dragon Longevity Tea The Healthiest Tea on Earth The Multifunctional “Magical Grass” In Asia, Gynostemma is known as a “magical grass.” It has been reported to have a wide range of health-promoting benefits. In Asia, Gynostemma is considered to be:* Invigorating (does not cause hyperactivity – not a stimulant) Calming (promotes a sense of peace – not a sedative) Anti-aging (antioxidant and more) Anti-inflammatory (not as a medicine, but to help reduce the factors that cause low grade, sub-clinical chronic inflammation experienced by all humans) Immune-regulating (not as a medicine, but to help support the normal healthy functioning of various immune functions) A respiratory tonic (improves respiratory efficiency) A digestive aid (Gynostemma is very soothing) Gynostemma has been shown in animal studies to have liver and cardiovascular-protecting benefits and to support normal healthy functioning in these organs.* Adaptogenic Benefits The ultimate greatness of Gynostemma lies in its broad-spectrum adaptogenic (stress-modulating) quality.* Adaptogenic herbs improve the efficiency of the metabolic, neurological, immunologic, respiratory, and endocrine systems. Prolonged consumption of Gynostemma tends to have a highly protective quality because it strengthens the adaptive capacity of the person at every level of their life.* Double-Direction Activity Gynostemma has the ability to bring balance to the body under a wide range of stressful circumstances. Japanese studies have indicated that Gynostemma has a double-direction, regulating, adaptogenic influence on the central nervous system. It is calming when one is overexcited and invigorating when one is fatigued. Gynostemma is widely known for its “spirit-lifting” effect on one’s mood. Gynostemma may have a direct strengthening effect on the heart.* Weight Management Support Gynostemma has developed an enormous reputation in Asia as a major aid in weight management programs: Gynostemma can be useful in reducing excessive body fat, when combined with a reasonable exercise program and a healthy diet. It may also help athletes, bodybuilders, or excessively slim people to gain weight. Gynostemma accelerates the body’s metabolism and helps adjust blood sugar and blood fat levels. Although not a laxative, it may help maintain healthy bowel movements. Acts as a scavenger in the digestive system, ridding the body of toxins and toxic microbes. Protects the stomach lining.* Antioxidant & Anti-inflammatory Activity Gynostemma is a potent antioxidant that protects cell membranes from oxidative injury, which can result in chronic inflammation.* Main Active Ingredients: Saponins The saponins in Gynostemma are called gypenosides. There are over 100 gypenosides in Gynostemma. These are responsible for the hepato-protective and adaptogenic qualities of this tonic herb.* The Story of Spring Dragon Longevity Tea In 1972, Japanese researchers reported that Gynostemma tea was being consumed daily as a “longevity tea” by many southern Chinese people. Revered as “magical grass,” it earned its name through its reputed health benefits. Studies revealed that Gynostemma was extremely rich in saponins — even more so than ginseng. As interest grew, cultivation spread, and it became a widely consumed tonic tea. In 1992, Ron Teeguarden, through a serendipitous meeting with Professor Xiao Peigun — one of China’s leading herbal medicine experts — was introduced to the highest-quality Gynostemma. Inspired by traditional methods of supersaturating herbs into tea leaves, Ron created Spring Dragon Longevity Tea with the help of a tea master. In Addition to Gynostemma, This Tea Includes: SchizandraThe “quintessence of Chinese herbs,” used to tonify all systems, cleanse the liver, open the lungs, and nourish the skin. A potent antioxidant.* Goji BerriesA superfood rich in antioxidants, known for enhancing strength, vision, and beauty. Contains immune-potentiating polysaccharides. AstragalusHighly regarded for its immune-regulating effects, energy tonification, and blood support. Eleuthero (Siberian Ginseng)Enhances physical and mental endurance, mood, and stress resilience. Rich in saponins. Luo Han GuoAn exotic fruit used for centuries as a lung tonic. Contains mogroside, an immune-potentiating glucoside. Traditional Function Adaptogenic, anti-aging, immune-regulating, anti-inflammatory, blood sugar-regulating, fat-reducing, tonifying to the Lungs, Heart, Spleen/Pancreas, Liver, and Kidney, and detoxifying.

Product Details Incredible source of nutrition Anti-stress adaptogen Strengthens immune system Stimulates liver regeneration High antioxidant content Increases glutathione and SOD Helps detoxify harmful substances Reduces sensitivity to pain Enhances fertility SupplementFacts Ingredients:Wild Himalayan Pine Pollen (99% cell-wall-broken) from Pinus Massoniana. NetWeight: 150g Directions: Consume 2-3 teaspoons daily per person for optimal benefit. Pinepollen is one of the most complete sources of nutrition found anywhere in the natural world. It boasts 20 different amino acids, 8 of which are 'essential' as they cannot be synthesised in the human body and must come from nutrition. This makes pine pollen a complete source of protein. It contains omega 3 fats (ALA) as well as vitamins B1, B2, B3, B6 and B9. It also contains fat soluble vitamins A (beta-carotene), E and D – pine pollen contains both vitamin D2 and the bioactive D3 which is exceptionally rare for a plant. It also possesses an impressive array of important trace minerals, immune-enhancing polysaccharides, methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), DNA building nucleic acids, live enzymes and a mass of antioxidants. It actually stimulates the production of our body’s own endogenous antioxidants glutathione and superoxide dismutase (SOD). The thing that pine pollen has become most renowned for in the west in recent years is its role as a powerful phyto-androgen – a plant that contains steroid-like compounds that are identical to testosterone and other androgenic hormones like DHEA and progesterone amongst others. This makes pine pollen a powerful medicine for the endocrine system, especially for those advancing beyond middle age whose levels of serum androgen hormones are rapidly decreasing. However, when we buy pine pollen products we will either be buying it as a powder or an alcohol-based extract. The powder is deeply nourishing but doesn’t pack the same hormonal punch as the tincture since all of the hormonal sterols in pine pollen are alcohol-soluble.This is why the tincture is not really suitable for children or young adults as they generally don’t need the increase in androgenic hormones. The powder is extremely versatile and can be used as a superfood powder for smoothies and recipes, and it makes a great flour, soup thickener and is amazing in home-made desserts! It can also be used to make instant drinks – both hot and cold. It is perfectly safe for everyone to consume – men, women and children of all ages. Nyishar Wild Mountain Pine Pollen is harvested from deep within the pristine mountain environment of Changbai in the Jilin province of north east China, far from the contamination of industry and civilisation. The pollen is collected from a high altitude (1500m above sea level) during two weeks every March when the vast landscape of pine trees come into bloom. Pollen is harvested only from mature trees who are able to produce complex and nutritious pollen, unlike younger trees whose pollen possesses less nutrition and medicinal utility. Impurities are removed from the harvested pollen through airflow separation. Then, through the process of low temperature, pressurised vibrational airflow cracking, the cell wall of the pollen grains is 'cracked open', making the immense nutrition they contain bioavailable to the human digestive system. This ensures that approximately 99% of all pollen grains are successfully cracked open and able to travel through a 250 mesh screen. The cell wall of pollen grains is very tough so utilising technology of this kind can maximise the availability and absorption of the therapeutic compounds within pine pollen (see comparison slides in the photo gallery). On average, this improves the nutrient density of pine pollen by at least 20%.

Rehmannia Six Combination Rehmannia Six Combination is one of the most important and commonly used Yin Essence (Jing) tonics. It builds Yin Jing. It is a superb tonic for maintenance and support of Yin Essence in older men and women. Rehmannia Six has a broad range of applications and is suitable in any situation where one needs to restore Yin Jing. Steamed Rehmannia is the leading herb in this formula. It is a warm, moist, Kidney Yin and Blood tonic. Its heaviness helps constrain uncontrolled Yang. Rehmannia supports the lower back, supports the brain and bone marrow, and benefits hearing function. Rehmannia, Dioscorea and Poria can all support the healthy metabolic function. These three herbs also have a strengthening effect on the body and spirit. Rehmannia, Dioscorea and Cornus help to support hearing. In men, Rehmannia and Dioscorea support sexual function. This formula may provide prostate support in older men. Rehmannia, Cornus and Moutan all support the Liver Yin as well as that of the Kidney. Rehmannia and Poria have a tonifying and calming effect on the Heart. Dioscorea and Poria strengthen the Spleen's digestive function, aiding healthy nutrient absorption. This is the classical Rehmannia Six Combination used for centuries in Asia. What distinguishes Dragon Herbs RehmanniaSix Combination from other brands is the quality of the herbs used to produce it and the production technology. ALL HERBS in China (and from most places) come in different grades based upon their variety, seed stock, growing source, growing conditions, care of the cultivators or collectors, and processing at various stages of the supply chain and during production. That’s a lot to consider. But Dragon Herbs does take ALL these factors into account in selecting our raw materials and in producing our herbal products. Rehmannia Six Combination is so widely consumed in China that many domestic herb factories produce it. Most of this production uses low grade herbs for price reasons. Many of the peasants of China take Rehmannia Six Combination, so many factories produce it with very cheap materials so that it costs just pennies. Dragon Herbs does not use low grade, less effective, raw materials for Rehmannia Six Combination or any of its products. Dragon Herbs identifies sources of the BEST raw material, the kind preferred in Shanghai or Hong Kong by those who know herbs and want the best. We use this premium material to produce this important formula. Production technology also matters. Most factories just throw the herbs into a tank and cook the whole thing for a couple of hours, then they make a powdered extract of the tea using a lot of excipient (usually not natural). Dragon Herbs uses low temperature extraction using very pure water and no chemicals. We add the herbs carefully at incremental stages. Some of the herbs in Rehmannia Six Combination can only be cooked for a few minutes. These “short cook” herbs are cooked separately and carefully and added at the end. For example, the Moutan in Rehmannia Six Combination must be cooked just for a few minutes at most because of its aromatic oil content. One very important process that most factories skip involves the collection of aromatic oils from the tea. Real Rehmannia Six Combination has a sweet-spicy aroma. This is from the aromatic oils in the herbs. If the herbs are overcooked and the oils are allowed to evaporate, the true power of Rehmannia Six Combination cannot be achieved – even if good quality herbs are used. Dragon Herbs always processes its herbs using an “oil trap.” An oil trap is a sophisticated device connected to the extraction system. It captures evaporating aromatic oils and collects them in crystallized form. These collected essential oils are therefore not lost. They are added back into the extract at the end of the process. And this makes ALL THE DIFFERENCE! When you smell Dragon Herbs Rehmannia Six Combination, and other Dragon Herbs powdered extracts, you can always smell the aromatic oils. These oils are not present in most other brands of powdered extract. It is something we pay extra for, but you the customer don’t. We know that for an herbal extract to work, it must be made correctly and with the best technology available in the world.* Traditional Function: Tonifies Yin Jing, nourishes the Kidneys, can provide prostate support in men* Who can use it? For those who wish to tonify their Yin Jing and fortify the Kidney, especially useful for generally healthy men and women over 50 years of age to support healthy aging.

Desert Cistanche Drops Cistanche, the King of Desert Herbs Desert Cistanche Drops is a very potent Yang tonic preparation made from one of the world’s truly elite tonic herbs, Desert Cistanche. It has been used for centuries by men to enhance male sexual function and power, and many women consume it as well. Desert Cistanche Drops is made with large wild Cistanche (Rou Cong Rong in Chinese) from the desert of Western Mongolia and Inner Mongolia as it rises westward toward the Heaven Mountains of Central Asia. Genghis Khan consumed Desert Cistanche every day. This unrivaled tincture is rich and pleasant to the palette. Traditionally in Chinese health philosophy, a range of functions including the sexual, renal, structural (skeletal), neurological, marrow-supporting and endocrine functions, and their related tissues, are known collectively as the “Kidney.” Desert Cistanche is a superior “Kidney tonic herb” that may be used by men or women, though it is most widely used by men to promote sexual power and virility. It is famously known as the “Stalk Enlarger.” It has gained the traditional reputation of strengthening male erections, intensifying orgasms in both men and women, and for enlarging the penis. Cistanche is also considered to be an excellent mood supporting herb. (No scientific-consensus substantiation is available yet for any of these traditional “benefits.” Cistanche is NOT an E D drug, and is not used to treat, cure or prevent any disease. It is a tonic herb, a kind of superfood that promotes optimal functioning of normal bodily functions.) Cistanche is famous for being simultaneously powerful and gentle. It is both Yang and Yin. Its actions are profound and unmistakable, but its actions as a Yang tonic are said to be “calm and smooth,” meaning that it is not sudden or harsh. Research on Desert Cistanche A set of constituents known as PhGs (phenylethanoid glycosides) are the primary constituents of Cistanche for tonifying Kidney functions. These Cistanche glycosides are quite similar to those of Rehmannia, another well-known Kidney tonic herb. Rehmannia is considered to be a Yin Kidney tonic. In fact, three of the primary glycosides found in Cistanche are also found in Rehmannia, along with Rehmannia’s primary glycoside, catalpol. Rehmannia and Cistanche are both rich in sterols such as sitosterol. Thus, it seems that the “gentle” nature of Cistanche, generally considered a very potent Yang tonic, is due to having constituents that also nourish Yin. Recently, there has been increasing scientific attention on Cistanche for its remarkable anti-aging, antioxidant and neuroprotective bioactivities. Pharmacological studies show that saponins called cistanocides, related to the ginsenosides of Ginseng and the astragalosides of Astragalus, are major active components of Cistanche. These cistanocides contribute to an energy tonifying, adaptogenic range of actions. Cistanche long ago earned the honorable title of “Ginseng of the Desert.” Cistanche also contains a rich array of volatile oils, iridoids, lignans, alditols, oligosaccharides and polysaccharides that contribute to its many tonic functions. Galactitol and the oligosaccharides moisten and nourish the colon and support normal healthy bowel functions. This is one of the primary functions of Desert Cistanche. Cistanche polysaccharides and cistanocides are responsible for improving body immunity. The Rich History of Cistanche Shennong first described Cistanche 2,500 years ago Shennong, one of the founders of Chinese culture and the author of the world’s first herbal text, had this to say about Cistanche: “Cistanche has a salty taste. It mainly treats the five taxations and seven damages, supplements the center, eliminates cold and heat and pain in the penis, nourishes the five viscera, strengthens Yin, and boosts Jing and Qi. In females, it makes pregnancy possible and treats concretions and conglomerations. Protracted taking can make the body light.” In fact, Cistanche is not really salty though it grows in alkaline soil; it is actually sweet and rich-tasting. It is not bitter, salty or pungent. To an herbalist’s palette it is quite delicious. Cistanche has been used in traditional formulations as a tonic to restore and support Kidney functions and to tonify Jing, and thus to help restore and maintain youth and to prevent hasty degeneration with aging. Shennong is one of the greatest herbal geniuses in the history of mankind. He developed the principle of three levels of health practice and of herbs, and virtually single-handedly launched Chinese herbalism. He described 360 herbs in his great herbal text, Shennong’s Pharmacopeia Asian sex manuals always recommend Desert Cistanche as a long term tonic to build primal power and enhance endowment Numerous classical Asian manuals on both herbalism and sexuality describe Cistanche in much detail. For instance, it was mentioned no less than one hundred times in The Essence of Medical Prescriptions (984 A.D.) in the sections on men’s health, sex, Yang tonics and physical empowerment. This is one of the most honored medical texts for Oriental medical practitioners still in existence. One of the sections focused entirely on the bedroom arts, and Cistanche was the primary herb used in numerous formulations for men. It was referred to routinely as the “stalk enlarger,” in reference to the “jade stalk” or penis. The herb remains extremely popular in Asia. Products featuring Cistanche are found in all herb shops. Cistanche has a colorful reputation in China, since everyone knows what it does. Desert Cistanche Drops is made from large three-to-four year old Cistanche stalks collected in the wild Inner Mongolian desert. This product is NOT made with commercial grade Cistanche. It is made with grade A+ wild Cistanche stalks. The infamous Genghis Khan, who fathered literally hundreds of children in his lifetime and who has left the largest substantiated genetic trail of any single man in human history, consumed Desert Cistanche every day as a tonic. His Y-chromosome is today found in an estimated 16 million of his male–line progeny in a vast swath of Asia from Manchuria to Central Asia, and more recently throughout the world. That’s one of every 200 males on earth today. Cistanche grows wild in the regions that were first controlled by Genghis Khan (Inner Mongolia and Heaven Mountain). Wild Cistanche is collected in arid regions that are untouched by civilization. More Research on Desert Cistanche Cistanche may benefit learning and memory A study entitled “Cistanche enhances learning and memory by inducing nerve growth factor” (published in The Journal Behavioral Brain Research, Jan 20, 2011) reports that Desert Cistanche extract increased nerve growth factor (NGF) induction in animal cells. NGF and NGF–like molecules have potent biological activities such as promoting neurite outgrowth, protecting neurons (preventing neuronal death), supporting synapse formation, and enhancing learning and memory functions. Cistanche extract significantly enhanced learning and memory in mice, and the memory improvement function was determined to be a result of up-regulation of the nerve growth factor. NGF has also been demonstrated to have an association with the feelings of romantic love through a pathway associated with dopamine. Cistanche may have cardio-protective and respiratory benefits In a study entitled “Herba Cistanche extract enhances mitochondrial glutathione status and respiration in rat hearts” (published in Pharmaceutical Biology, May 2010), Cistanche has been shown to enhance mitochondrial ATP generation. ATP is the “energy-rich molecule” at the root of all living vitality. Treatment with an alcohol extract of Cistanche enhanced mitochondrial glutathione status and increased mitochondrial membrane potential. Glutathione is one of the three primary innate antioxidants produced by humans to fight off free radicals. In addition, an increase in respiration was observed in mitochondria from Cistanche-treated rat hearts. The enhancement of mitochondrial glutathione status and functional ability may be related to cardioprotection afforded by Cistanche. (Desert Cistanche Drops is both an alcohol extract and a water extract so that all constituents are extracted.) This is the analytical laboratory at the facility Dragon Herbs uses to produce Desert Cistanche Drops and most of our other “Drops.” The equipment is state of the art. More research on the actions of Cistanche PhGs In the review section of an article in the Journal of Food Analysis, it is stated that the major active components of Cistanche deserticola, PhGs, have been reported to have cardioactive, hepatocyte protective, antioxidant, antibacterial, and neuroprotective activities. Here are some of the established functions of the main PhGs in Cistanche deserticola (Desert Cistanche) mentioned in the review: Cistanoside A exhibits an anti-inflammatory effect. Cistanoside C possesses DNA-repair effects. 2’-acetylacteoside exhibits antioxidant, DNA-repair and neuroprotective effects. Isoacteoside possesses antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and vaso-relaxant activities. Acteoside exhibits both estrogenic and anti-estrogenic effects, probably acting as a regulator. Acteoside also exhibits anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. Isocistanoside C has antioxidant activity. Echinacoside exhibits anti-inflammatory effect and enhances wound healing. Tubuloside B has a neuroprotective effect. Cistanche deserticola is not endangered but it is a “monitored botanical,” meaning that its collection and exportation in and out of China or region of growth as a raw material is strictly limited and governed by International CITES regulations. Although Cistanche is very popular in China and other Asian countries, and the superior grade Cistanche is coveted in the more affluent Chinese market, it is NOT over-collection that has caused any shortages of the herb. Cistanche is a parasitic herb that grows on another plant, a desert shrub called Saxaul. The stems and branches of Saxaul are heavily relied upon by natives of the desert as a superior fuel wood. As a result, Saxaul has been over-collected, restricting Cistanche availability. The government is trying to provide alternative forms of fuel to the natives of the regions where it grows to mitigate use of Saxaul and thus to allow the Cistanche population to expand again. Dragon Herbs complies with all CITES regulations and is committed to sustainable practices. Furthermore, Dragon Herbs limits the production of Desert Cistanche Drops to a relatively small quantity (far below potential demand), to protect sustainability of this great natural herb. Production and potency For Desert Cistanche, alcohol extraction is considered to be superior to simple water extraction, although both alcohol and water extraction have been traditionally practiced. Desert Cistanche Drops is fully extracted with BOTH alcohol and water to maximize extraction of ALL active constituents. The extract is concentrated to optimal potency in a GMP certified facility, meeting Ron Teeguarden’s strictest standards of excellence. Longan, translated literally as “Dragon Eye” fruit, is a wonderfully delicious, fleshy fruit that is extremely popular in China as a snack. Although in Asia it is consumed fresh in the fall, this unique tasting sweet fruit is usually dried and consumed throughout the year much like raisins or dried apricots. But unlike most other dried fruits, Longan is a major tonic herb. It is used by the Chinese as a blood tonic (an herb that builds blood), as an energy tonic to increase vitality, to nurture the heart, and to enhance the beauty of the skin. A great blood tonic. Longan is one of the premier blood tonics of Chinese tonic herbalism, it is often combined with other blood tonics such as Dang Gui and Peony to make blood building teas and formulations. Dragon Eye Fruit has a very high content of iron – about 20 times that of grapes and 15 times that of spinach. A great Qi tonic for building up your everyday energy. Consumed regularly, Longan is more than just a temporary energy booster. It is an excellent Qi tonic that increases long-term vitality. Since it is both a blood tonic and a Qi tonic, it can be used to relieve insomnia, forgetfulness and anxiety which are the results of blood and Qi deficiency, according to Chinese philosophy. Promotes calmness. Longan promotes calmness, especially when combined with Shen tonics such as Reishi. It has been found to promote a deep, refreshing sleep. If you have difficulty sleeping, you may enjoy using a classic tonic formulation known as “Ginseng and Longan Combination” that is famous for helping promote a good night’s sleep. A fantastic beauty herb and sex tonic. Longan adds luster and beauty to the skin. It is believed among the Chinese people that Longan is not only great for the skin, but is also a fantastic sex tonic. For that reason, Longan is considered a MUST for women who wish to be both beautiful and sensual – it has a 2000 year reputation as a special love tonic. Longan nurtures the heart. According to traditional Chinese herbal theory, Longan directly nourishes the heart, promoting heart health. Usage: Logan is a great every day snack. Longan’s iron content makes it an excellent supplement to a vegetarian or low-animal-protein diet. Give it as a healthy snack in your kid’s lunch. Contents: 1 pound bag dried longan berries

Magu's Treasure In China, the goddess Magu is revered because of her warmth, seductive charm and deep beauty --- and also because Magu remained eternally young. Magu is indeed the goddess associated with staying young and beautiful. Magu's Treasure is Dragon Herbs' ultimate women's tonic formulation. This superior quality formulation includes such highly prized herbal substances as Deer Antler Tips, Deer Placenta, Pearl, Royal Jelly, Schizandra, Dang Gui, and other deeply nourishing herbs. Magu’s Treasure is fundamentally a deep essence tonic with strong blood tonic and blood purifying qualities. The Herbs in Magu's Treasure Deer Antler Tips Deer Antler is widely believed in the Orient to strengthen all aspects of a person's life, and is considered to be an ultimate primal essence (Jing) tonic. It is said to be a warm Yang tonic, although it is also known to contain Yin essence and is a major blood tonic. Extracts of Deer Antler have been found to strengthen the central nervous system and the heart. Deer Antler is believed to strengthen the mind and to enliven the Spirit (Shen). It is also widely used to improve mental power. Deer Antler contains many natural minerals and other nutrients. Deer Antler is the most precious and the most potent of the substances that fortify the Yang energy of the Kidney, Yang Jing. It is widely used in Asia to strengthen adrenal, reproductive and brain functions. It is universally believed in the Orient to build sexual strength and to increase virility and fertility. Deer antler is used to build blood and improve circulation. Deer antler has been found to benefit the cardiovascular system. Deer antler is tonic to the marrow, which produces blood, including our white and red blood cells. Marrow tends to degenerate as we age and deer antler is believed to slow down or reverse this process. This is a major aspect of deer antler’s youth preserving ability. Overall, deer antler is mainly used as a rejuvenating agent. Short term use is believed to quickly build strength and power, while consistent long-term use is believed to re-build deep life force, preserve youthfulness or even reverse aging, and to enhance longevity. Deer are not generally killed for their antler. The soft antler of the deer is removed from the deer when it has grown just two or three spikes and is still covered by velvet. The deer grows new antlers that same season, which are not harvested. The tip of the antler is the most potent part because it contains the most active substances. Deer Placenta Because of its role in nurturing new life, Placenta is considered to be the most profound substance for replenishing Yin and Yang Jing and blood. Deer Placenta is also considered to be a major Qi tonic. It is the dominant ingredient in many of the greatest "restorative" formulations, where quick and powerful replenishment is required. Deer Placenta (a 20:1 concentrated extract) is the preferred source of Placenta at this time. Deer Placenta is prepared by high-technology pharmaceutical factories in New Zealand from certified clean healthy deer. Pearl Pearl has a tremendous reputation in China as both a beauty tonic and as a Shen tonic. Recent Chinese medical texts credit pearl with the ability to clarify the skin, relieve uneasiness of the heart and mind, to benefit reproduction, to relieve “wandering arthritis,” to relieve internal fever, to clear sputum, to remove visual obstacles and improve eyesight, to promote muscle development and to invigorate blood circulation. As a beauty tonic, pearl is hard to beat. The components in pearl powder help heal blemishes and maintain the health of the skin by participating in the metabolic activities of the skin. Pearl promotes the regeneration of new cells and makes the skin smooth, fine, elastic and naturally beautiful. High quality pearl powder can promote the activities of the important natural antioxidant enzyme known as SOD, and can help prevent the development of melanin, which causes freckles and dark patches on the skin. It can help prevent the skin from becoming old looking, wrinkled and sagging. This is partly due to its stimulation of SOD activity and partly due to other capacities and nutrients. Consistent use of pearl powder can eliminate blemishes such as colored spots and even pimples and boils. Constant use can help assure that the skin will age much more slowly and that it will not be easily harmed by either time or the elements. Pearl is one of the great secrets of the most beautiful women of the Orient. Pearl is also a powerful Shen stabilizer. It is among the elite substances of this type known. It can relieve uneasiness, nervousness, anxiety and tension. Pearl promotes sound sleep, prevents nerve-disorders and nerve weakness, and is commonly used to prevent or overcome fatigue. Consistent use helps a person maintain their energy and vitality. It is an ideal Shen tonic and is the main ingredient in the finest Shen tonic formulations. Pearl contains dozens of minerals, including: calcium, magnesium, zinc, iron, strontium, copper, selenium, silicon, titanium, and more. Pearl contains calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, calcium phosphate, ferric oxide, silica. But to many people’s surprise, pearl is not just made up of minerals. Pearl contains many amino acids (eight of the amino acids are “essential” – in other words, they cannot be produced in the body but are required for health). Various components inPearl participate in DNA and RNA metabolic activities, and thus can promote and accelerate cell renewal. Mucopolysaccharides inPearl have been shown to prevent wrinkling and to increase libido and sexual potency in humans. Royal Jelly Royal Jelly is natural food substance produced by worker bees for their queen. This incredibly nutritious whole food is rich in a very broad spectrum of important vitamins, minerals and other substances essential to radiant health. Royal Jelly is believed to be an important beauty aid and is said to beautify the skin, eyes and hair. It is widely available in many commercially prepared products, or it can be obtained fresh, straight from the hive. Fresh Royal Jelly can have profound health benefits. White Peony Root White Peony root is an important blood tonic used to relax muscle and cleanse the blood. It is one of the most highly prized women's herbs used traditionally to help regulate the female hormonal cycle and to tonify and purify the blood. It is also used as a pain reducing agent and as an emotional stabilizer by women. It is said to help relieve cramps and spasms anywhere in the body. In particular, it is considered to be highly effective in relieving menstrual cramps. Peony root is also believed to extend life and to promote beauty. An old Chinese saying states that "a woman who consumes Peony root regularly becomes as beautiful as the Peony flower itself." Longan Fruit Longan is a wonderful and delicious tonic fruit used as a superior blood tonic, to nurture the heart, and to add luster and beauty to the skin. It is believed among Chinese women that Longan is not only a great tonic for the skin, but is also a fantastic sex tonic. For that reason, Longan is considered as a special tonic for women who wish to be both beautiful and sexually active — it has a 2000 year reputation as a love tonic. It is said that the most beautiful woman in the history of China, Yang Kuei Fei consumed Longan every day. It is believed to have a calming effect and to add radiance to the eyes. Schizandra Berry Schizandra is a famous tonic historically consumed by Chinese royalty and by Taoist masters. It is one of the few herbs thatcontains all three treasures. Schizandra is renowned as a beauty tonic and is considered to be a youth preserving herb. It has been used for centuries to make the skin soft, moist and radiant. It is also said to be a powerful tonic to the brain and mind, and is believed in China to improve memory. It is also said to be an excellent sexual tonic when consumed regularly. It is said to help produce abundant sexual fluids, increase sexual endurance and to strengthen the whole body. It is used in many tonic formulations as an "astringent." Schizandra has a wonderful multi layered flavor when processed properly. Schizandra develops the primary energies of life, and generates vitality and radiant beauty when used regularly for some time. If used for 100 days successively, Schizandra is said to purify the blood, sharpen the mind, improve memory, rejuvenate the Kidney energy (especially the sexual functions in both men and women), and cause the skin to become radiantly beautiful. The Taoists especially revered Schizandra. This is because Schizandra contains all five elemental energies in abundance, contains all three treasures in abundance, and enters all twelve meridians. It is considered it to be the quintessential herbal substance. Women who practiced Taoist lovemaking practices for the purpose of retaining the youth and beauty all consumed Schizandra daily. Schizandra is said to increase the Water Qi in the Kidney. In particular, it is said to vastly increase the “water of the genital organs,” referring to the sexual fluids. It is famous for its ability to relieve sexual fatigue. Schizandra is also said to increase circulation in and sensitivity of the female genitals. Many women claim increased genital warmth and sensation after using Schizandra for a period of time. The Chinese sexual classics claim that continuous use by a woman will increase the amount of “female elixir,” a euphemism for vaginal secretions, during intercourse. Schizandra is considered to have “aphrodisiac” qualities, especially when combined with other Kidney tonics. Furthermore, Schizandra is one of the most important astringent herbs used in Chinese herbalism. An astringent herb conserves fluids, and in the case of Schizandra, it tends to contain sexual fluids until the appropriate time of release. Thus, consuming Schizandra for a period of time, one tends to build up sexual fluids. Schizandra is widely used to beautify the skin and to protect the skin from the damaging effects of the sun and wind. Due to the astringent quality of Schizandra, the skin tends to hold its moisture and becomes full and beautiful. It has always been very popular with the wealthy men and women of China because of its youth preserving and rejuvenating effects. I have seen the benefits of this herb with my own eyes hundreds of times in my life. People who start taking Schizandra regularly all change for the better. Their skin virtually glows and becomes clear and fine after several months. This herb is considered to be one of the premium mind tonics of herbalism. It is used to sharpen concentration, improve memory and increase alertness. Yet, unlike caffeine-like stimulants, Schizandra does not produce nervousness. In fact, some people consider Schizandra mildly “calming” while producing wakefulness and improved focus. It has been demonstrated that human intellectual activity can be enhanced and work efficiency increased by consuming Schizandra. Various tests have shown that moderate therapeutic doses of Schizandra can improve various activities requiring concentration, fine coordination, sensitivity and endurance. The tests in humans confirming Schizandra’s efficacy in these areas range from threading needles to running marathons. Dang Gui Root Dang Gui (Tang Kwei or Angelica sinensis) is used as a superb blood tonic. It is also an important blood-vitalizing herb (e.g., it improves blood circulation). Dang Gui is most famous as a women's tonic, because women so often use it as a blood tonic and to regulate the female menstrual cycle. It is found in most women's tonic preparations. Cynomorium Root Cynomorium is considered to be a superb tonic to the primal Yang essence and is thus used in many tonics for both men and women. It is widely believed in the Orient to be a superb longevity herb and an excellent sexual tonic and stimulant. It is said to strengthen the bones. It is an especially excellent Yang tonic for women since it is also an anti-aging, moistening herb that fosters beautiful skin. Many women feel that it is a fabulous sex tonic (even an aphrodisiac). Lycium Fruit (Goji Berry) This delicious fruit is very widely used as an excellent Yin Jing and blood tonic. Regular consumption of Lycium is traditionally believed to lead to a long and happy life. It is said that prolonged consumption of Lycium will promote cheerfulness and vitality. Lycium is also said to brighten the eyes and improve vision. It is said that Lycium strengthens the legs and enhances sexual function. Lycium fruit contains polysaccharides that have been demonstrated to strongly fortify the immune system. Lycium is also very rich in vitamin C and in B vitamins. Furthermore, it is the richest source of carotenoids, including beta carotene, of all known plants on earth and is thus a powerful antioxidant. It is a very great woman's herb. Codonopsis Codonopsis is one of the most famous and widely used Chinese tonic herbs. It is very mild and without any side effects, yet it is a superb Qi tonic. It invigorates the Spleen and Lung functions so that Qi is replenished and it promotes the production of body fluids. Codonopsis is also an excellent blood tonic and a major immune system tonic. It is believed to have an action similar to that of Ginseng, but milder. Its blood building quality makes it especially good for people who are weakened due to illness, and by women, since women lose blood regularly. Codonopsis is extremely effective at relieving chronic fatigue. It is used in women's formulations to build blood. Since many women are slightly blood deficient, this is an important quality of the herbs that women should consume. Codonopsis is mild yet it has powerful strengthening effects, especially on the digestive, respiratory and immune systems. It is rich in immune stimulating polysaccharides that are beneficial to everyone.

Product Details Incredible source of nutrition Anti-stress adaptogen Strengthens immune system Stimulates liver regeneration High antioxidant content Increases glutathione and SOD Helps detoxify harmful substances Reduces sensitivity to pain Enhances fertility SupplementFacts Ingredients:Wild Himalayan Pine Pollen (99% cell-wall-broken) from Pinus Massoniana. NetWeight: 150g Directions: Consume 2-3 teaspoons daily per person for optimal benefit. Pinepollen is one of the most complete sources of nutrition found anywhere in the natural world. It boasts 20 different amino acids, 8 of which are 'essential' as they cannot be synthesised in the human body and must come from nutrition. This makes pine pollen a complete source of protein. It contains omega 3 fats (ALA) as well as vitamins B1, B2, B3, B6 and B9. It also contains fat soluble vitamins A (beta-carotene), E and D – pine pollen contains both vitamin D2 and the bioactive D3 which is exceptionally rare for a plant. It also possesses an impressive array of important trace minerals, immune-enhancing polysaccharides, methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), DNA building nucleic acids, live enzymes and a mass of antioxidants. It actually stimulates the production of our body’s own endogenous antioxidants glutathione and superoxide dismutase (SOD). The thing that pine pollen has become most renowned for in the west in recent years is its role as a powerful phyto-androgen – a plant that contains steroid-like compounds that are identical to testosterone and other androgenic hormones like DHEA and progesterone amongst others. This makes pine pollen a powerful medicine for the endocrine system, especially for those advancing beyond middle age whose levels of serum androgen hormones are rapidly decreasing. However, when we buy pine pollen products we will either be buying it as a powder or an alcohol-based extract. The powder is deeply nourishing but doesn’t pack the same hormonal punch as the tincture since all of the hormonal sterols in pine pollen are alcohol-soluble.This is why the tincture is not really suitable for children or young adults as they generally don’t need the increase in androgenic hormones. The powder is extremely versatile and can be used as a superfood powder for smoothies and recipes, and it makes a great flour, soup thickener and is amazing in home-made desserts! It can also be used to make instant drinks – both hot and cold. It is perfectly safe for everyone to consume – men, women and children of all ages. Nyishar Wild Mountain Pine Pollen is harvested from deep within the pristine mountain environment of Changbai in the Jilin province of north east China, far from the contamination of industry and civilisation. The pollen is collected from a high altitude (1500m above sea level) during two weeks every March when the vast landscape of pine trees come into bloom. Pollen is harvested only from mature trees who are able to produce complex and nutritious pollen, unlike younger trees whose pollen possesses less nutrition and medicinal utility. Impurities are removed from the harvested pollen through airflow separation. Then, through the process of low temperature, pressurised vibrational airflow cracking, the cell wall of the pollen grains is 'cracked open', making the immense nutrition they contain bioavailable to the human digestive system. This ensures that approximately 99% of all pollen grains are successfully cracked open and able to travel through a 250 mesh screen. The cell wall of pollen grains is very tough so utilising technology of this kind can maximise the availability and absorption of the therapeutic compounds within pine pollen (see comparison slides in the photo gallery). On average, this improves the nutrient density of pine pollen by at least 20%.

Product Details Nourishes the 5 primary organ systems (lungs, liver, kidneys, spleen & heart) Increases mental clarity/focus/concentration Natural antidepressant Increases endurance, stamina and enhances athletic performance Respiratory tonic that helps increase oxygen absorption & utilisation Improves post-exercise recovery Provides immunological support Supplement Facts Ingredients: Rhodiola rosea (50%), Lycium barbarum (40%), Schisandra chinensis (10%).Net Weight: 60gServing Size: 1g (half a teaspoon)Serving Per Container: 60Directions: Use as an instant tea, add to smoothies or juice.Nyishar Wild Yogi's Tonic is a high potency formula comprising three of the greatest adaptogenic herbal medicines from ancient mountain-dwelling cultures. All of the herbs in this formula have been used for centuries by yogis and hermits of the Himalayas and the mountains of central and northern Europe, as a healing tonic and a support for the practice of attaining complete mastery over the body and mind. The 'directing herb' in this formula is Rhodiola rosea, the 'supporting herb' is Lycium barbarum (Goji) and the 'harmonising herb' is Schisandra chinensis.Traditionally, Rhodiola rosea was used in the depths of winter as a lung tonic to protect and heal from viral infections, fevers and pneumonia. It was also sued for improving circulation and significantly increasing physical and mental energy. In the Himalayas it was sought after by royalty as a powerful longevity tonic, and it was included in the first ever published Swedish pharmacopeia, due to the fact that it was so popular with the Vikings as a herb for increasing physical and mental endurance. More recently, scientific research has classified Rhodiola as one of the greatest adaptogens that possesses significant antidepressant properties and acts as a stabilising tonic to the central nervous system. It can increase energy, promote cognitive function and alertness, while also improving memory. Due to its 'cool nature', Rhodiola is not over-stimulating.Rhodiola is supported by Lycium barbarum - the fruit of the Goji plant. Traditionally this herb was used as an anti-inflammatory, immune tonic and as a support for the liver, kidneys and blood. TCM has revered this herb for centuries as a nutritive that helps to build back lost vitality and help recovery from chronic and debilitating illness and fatigue. Modern research has proven this medicine as an impressive respiratory and cardiovascular tonic - it strengthens the integrity of blood vessels and lubricates the bronchi and alveoli of the lungs.It stimulates the regeneration processes of the liver and as such has been utilised as a recovery aid for patients undergoing chemotherapy.The medicinal attributes of this formula are harmonised by the presence of Schisandra chinensis - one of the most balanced herbal adaptogens in all of traditional Chinese herbalism. Schisandra contains all six flavours: sweet, sour, salty, spicy, bitter and astringent. Because of this, it is understood nourish and stabilise the five primary elements of the body, the five vital organs, five vessel organs and five sense organs. It was used for centuries as a preventative and treatment for infectious diseases, as a revitalising medicine and as a support for the mind. As a tonic for the lungs, liver, kidneys, spleen and heart, Schisandra is the perfect harmonising herb to unite the two main protagonists of this story - Rhodiola and Lycium.Nyishar Wild Yogis Tonic is a legendary herbal formula that can support you whether you are recovering from infection, chronic exhaustion/burnout, or need to significantly increase physical and mental performance.Nyishar products and the claims made about them on or through this site have not been evaluated by the MHRA or United States Food and Drug Administration and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease.

Introducing SPIRICCINO, a sophisticated and effective coffee substitute herbal formula to peacefully supercharge your day!This is long-coming for me, as I am one of the creators of the ‘mushroom coffee’ concept that is now gaining popularity. Back in 2004, while managing the elixir bar at Erewhon grocery in Hollywood, I created a reishi cappuccino drink.Many of us have been looking for alternatives to coffee, to help avoid adrenal stimulants. So, I welcome the new mushroom coffee trend, but I will always be far ahead of them on many fronts…Quality/sourcing: I use only 10:1 powdered extracts. This means there are NO added fillers or excipients. We don’t have a giant warehouse for stuff to sit around in. So, we frequently order very small batches, ensuring freshness ~ You can feel the difference! My herbs are processed with hot water/flash air-dry extraction, and sent directly to us.Formulation: SPIRICCINO draws from, and elaborates on, the principles of a five-millennia-old herbal lineage, of which I am an initiate.

I’m excited to offer RAKTA (Sanskrit for “blood”) to help us nourish Chi: the vital energy of life and to fortify our blood.In today’s world, many of us are choosing to adopt vegetarian or vegan diets for health and environmental reasons, and because it is a more humane diet. But one primary issue needs to be addressed, possible anemia, particularly among women during reproductive years.Over time, humans have genetically acclimated to eating some red meat in order to attain bio-available ferris iron, also referred to as heme iron. This easily assimilated iron is very important in the health of our blood – making it red. Red meat is the best source of heme iron.As a vegetarian, I have been concerned when encountering anemia in many vegan and vegetarian women and some men. I sought to provide a solution, and while writing my book, Raw Chi, I found it.In Chinese herbology, certain special herbs are classified to “build blood”. This classification happened because the Chinese civilization, until recently, did not eat red meat and they needed to keep their population healthy.Dang Gui is the most renowned blood-building herb. Its exact therapeutic mechanisms on blood fortification are not yet known but, Dang Gui has been used successfully for millennia and is a primary herb in formulas for women as well as for general blood building.Ligusticum is another herb for building and fortifying the blood, as is prepared Rehmannia (glutinosa). White peony root “moves blood and Chi” and is an indispensable herb for vital energy-flow throughout the body. White peony root is included in formulas to support healthy female fertility cycles (mense) and is said to “break up Chi stagnation” therefore helping alleviate discomfort during the menstrual cycle.But that’s not all. I add herbs for “warming the middle jiao.” These herbs, including White Atractylodes and codonopsis, assist the metabolic functions in helping remove unwanted accumulations of fat and moisture (edema) which cause unwanted bloating. Then I add herbs for assisting the general circulation and heart health: Salvia (milthorriza) and Gynostemma.Altogether, RAKTA is a wonderful “warm Chi” formula, helping distribute vital essences throughout the body to help alleviate cold hands and feet, loose stool or constipation, lethargy by assisting the body in energy production, and fortifying and moving the blood.I’m proud of this one! An indispensable formula for men and women who choose non-meat or low-meat diets, for those who need more energy, and for helping regulate healthy female menstrual cycles.Instructions: Take one level teaspoon in the morning in a mug of warm/hot water. Add vegan milks and/or sweetener of choice to taste.Ingredients: Rehmannia, White Peony root, Ligusticum, Codonopsis, White Atracylodes, Jujube Date, Raspberry, Lohan Quo, Dang Gui, Salvia milt., Goji, Gynostemma, Schizandra, Bamboo, ORMUS.Tonic Herbalist | Rehmannia Dean Thomas has created this combination of superior Tonic herbs, used for centuries throughout Asia to enhance strength and resilience. The RAKTA formula is composed of herbs long used throughout Asia to calm the body and mind and gently promote restful sleep without the next-day grogginess.

This is my “peaceful warrior” blend, to make a wonderful smoothie, or any other creative elixirs for family and friends.In Asia it is thought that black pigmented foods support longevity, containing high amounts of Zinc, Iron, Molybdenum, and other important antioxidant minerals that support the kidneys and endocrine system. Modern research has confirmed it to be true. Thus, Spirit Jing is a mixture of Black Foods.I have combined creamy powders of Black Bean, Black Rice, and Black Sesame, with Black Maca. To these I add herbs renowned to calm and empower the spirit, including Black Reishi Mushroom and Ho sho wu; which is said to return one’s greying hair to its natural pigment.Spirit Jing can be served hot or cold, and can be blended into any milk – vegan or animal – or mixed into many foods.

Shilajit is a densely nutrient-packed resin that exudes from high mountain ranges above 10,000 feet. In Ayurvedic tradition, shilajit has been renowned for two millennia as a panacea for overall health maintenance. No wonder it is called “Conqueror of Mountains, Destroyer of Weakness.”Shilajit is thought to be composed of super-densely concentrated remains of entire primordial eco-systems, ensconced in rock formations many centuries ago. Our shilajit is sourced from the Altai Mountains near the borders of Mongolia, Russia, Kazakhstan, and China. This region is renowned for its pristine, inaccessible remoteness. The majority of the population are nomadic sheep herders who live simply and sustainably, as a result, the Altai region remains remarkably free of human impact.Our shilajit contains 91% fulvic acid! With safe metals and low harmful microbiology.The attached lab test (COA) reveals our shilajit to be the highest quality available, at 90.95% fulvic acids. This is up to 25% higher than any other shilajit on the market. We also show very safe quantity of metals, lead, cadmium, mercury, etc, and our microbiology indicates no live microbial content, indicating it is free of animal dung and other unsavory components that can exist in low-quality shilajit products.Fulvic acids are the smallest particles in soil, containing the quintessence of once-forest- systems. Fulvic acids comprise the food in soil, taken up by plant roots and animals, and supplying nutrients for their sustenance. I was astonished to see this high fulvic acid ratio, having never thought such pure shilajit could exist.The high fulvic acid ratio proves our shilajit is composed almost entirely of remains of an ancient pristine eco-system that was trapped inside the strata when the Altai mountains were formed by colliding tectonic pressure, beginning approx. 40-50 million years ago. Only about 10% of the composition is from more recent detritus, indicating this shilajit was safely preserved inside the rock strata and protected from infiltration by more recent plant, microbial, and animal detritus.Yes!! Everything in a once-thriving forest is preserved here, as humic/fulvic acids can remain suspended in biologically active preservation for eons (Just how is not-yet fully understood).Why powder?Most shilajit comes as a sticky resin, reminiscent of how it looks when collected. Rehmannia prefers shilajit in powdered form. After air drying, the powder is undiluted by moisture, which could be why ours is so much more potent than others. But beware! Shilajit powder is easily corrupted with added fillers. As with any shilajit product, make sure the supplier openly displays their COA.Rehmannia likes to chew on a capsule or he takes a pinch on his tongue and follows with a sip of water. Although intense, he loves shilajit’s bitter, earthy taste, detecting the many minerals and other elements missing in our daily diets.You may also instantly crave these necessary nutrients. Your body will be kissed after taking a very small pinch. Taking 1-2 capsules or 1/8 teaspoon bulk powder daily will help support your nutritional needs, along with a healthy diet and exercise.Ingredients: Pure Altai Mountain Shilajit powder. Capsules; vegetable cellulose.Directions: take 1-2 capsules daily, separately; best taken in morning and mid-day. May chew on capsule or break open and dilute in water, or add about 1/8 teaspoon bulk powder into water, tea, elixirs, smoothies, coffee, etc. Best to avoid using liquid heated over 110 degrees, or some properties could be destroyed.

Along with qi (animating wind) and shén (spirit), it is considered one of the Three Treasures of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Jīng or Essence can be summarised in two parts: the Yin, being congenital or prenatal, and the Yang, being postnatal or acquired. Prenatal Jing is acquired at birth from the parents: the father's sperm and the mother's ovum. This is a similar concept to DNA. Postnatal Jing is acquired after birth through food, water, oxygen, as well as environmental and social conditions—very much like the concept of epigenetics. Jing essence can be exhausted through stress, sickness, injury, childbirth, excessive sexual activity and the natural processes of ageing. Lost Jing results in decreased vitality, lowered immunity, loss of strength and endurance, a sunken mental state and rapid ageing. However, there are a number of methods that can be applied in order to restore our spent vitality, one of which is the unique classification of powerful Jing tonics according to traditional eastern medicine.Nyishar Jing Redux is a perfectly balanced formula that restores both the yin and yang aspects of our deepest vitality - our innate reservoir of Jing. This formula offers excellent support when recovering from stress and exhaustion and facilitates physical healing of the joints and connective tissue. Traditionally this formula was used when deep revitalisation was needed, and when both men and women were attempting to increase and rebuild reproductive fertility.The original Jing Redux formula has now expanded to include Himalayan Shilajit and Deer Antler Velvet. This further enhances the Jing restoring properties of this medicine as well as exponentially increasing its potency. This is by far the strongest and most effective incarnation of Jing Redux yet. Every ingredient undergoes a multi-step extraction process in order to ensure maximum bioavailability and efficacy.There are a total of seven medicinal herbs that synergistically collaborate to create Jing Redux. Here is a breakdown of the formula and how it works:Himalayan ShilajitThis is the primary, chief herbal extract in this formula. Shilajit has been a revered herbal substance in Ayurvedic, Tibetan, Unani-Tibb and traditional Chinese medicine for centuries. Ayurveda has always referred to this substance as 'the destroyer of weakness' and the 'conqueror of mountains' in reference to its unrivalled fortification of body and mind, restoring them to their maximum state of strength and vitality.Shilajit contains over 80 different bioavailable ionic trace minerals, dibenzo-alpha-pyrones, as well as humic and fulvic acids. Fulvic acid is understood to regulate blood pressure/sugar/lipids, as well as improve digestion, immune function, increase muscle strength and stamina, while also influencing the healthy production of steroid hormones.Shilajit is also known to improve the efficiency of intra-cellular metabolism and has been used for many centuries as an amplifying medicine, due to its ability to elevate the potency and utility of all other medicines it is taken with. This 'potentiating' quality is driven by a number of compounds including dibenzo-alpha-pyrones - metabolites that proliferate throughout Shilajit. From the perspective of Chinese medicine, Shilajit is a superior grade jing herb that is deeply restorative but also encourages the healthy circulation of our subtle energies (qi) and has a stabilising and clarifying effect on the mind and emotions (shen).According to a collective anthology of scientific research on the health benefits of Shilajit (Carlos Carrasco-Gallardo et al, 2021), preclinical and clinical studies have determined shilajit to be a potential medicine for inflammation, pain relief, diabetes, treatment of gastric ulcers, infectious diseases and modulating immune function.However, the current emphasis of western scientific medicine is to explore the neuro-protective properties of Shilajit and its role in the treatment of cognitive disorders and dementia. In 2011 the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease reported on a study that was conducted by A Cornejo et al, which found that the fulvic acid in Shilajit can inhibit the formation of tau fibrils and amyloid plaque that is synonymous with the progression of dementia. It is also currently being studied as an anxiolytic medicine. At the Institute of Medical Sciences in Varanasi, AK Jaiswal et al conducted an in vivo trial where Shilajit was shown to dramatically reduce anxiety and improve memory in test subjects.Traditionally, Shilajit was recommended when the pathology had a hidden or deep-rooted nature, because it can amplify the therapeutic effects of an entourage of medicines that it is taken with. In Tibetan medicine this type of substance is known as a 'medicine horse', because it is like a powerful horse that the medicine rides quickly and efficiently to the site of the body that needs to be healed. Interestingly, this theory was explored in 2021 from Mohd Aamir Mirza et al. The study focused on the humic acids in Shilajit and how they can dramatically increase the absorption and utility of pharmaceutical drugs. In the study, the solubility of the anti-epileptic drug carbamazepine was increased by an enormous 1742%. The sustained release of the drug into the blood improved by 78% and its absorption increased by 3.5 times.Deer Antler VelvetDeer Antler Velvet is another natural healing product utilised for more than two thousand years in traditional Asian medical systems. It is regarded in TCM as one of the absolute finest medicines for restoring our depleted essence and for regenerating the body and mind. About two months after the antlers begin to grow, they are still very pliable, filled with blood and an assortment of growth factors, and the outer surface is soft and velvety.Antlers are a very special phenomenon in nature, in that they are a complex organ which completely regenerates every single year. While the antlers are still young (before they harden) they can completely renew any loss through damage or injury. When harvested, only the last few inches are collected, and it is the outermost tips of these segments that are the most therapeutically useful, because this is where the highest concentration of transforming growth factors, ecto-saponins, collagen and androgenic growth hormones are found. When harvested ethically and conscientiously, the tips of the budding new antlers regenerate rapidly (2cm per day) and have zero negative impact on their structure and function during the rutting season later in the year.Traditionally Deer Antler Velvet extract was utilised as a profound restorative medicine. TCM understands this medicine to restore both the yin and especially the yang aspects of Jing and act as a heart tonic that fortifies and regulates blood circulation, as well as the circulation of subtle energies throughout the meridians of the body and mind. Correspondingly, this promotes a radiance that is also expressed through a more healthy emotional balance and stable perception of the mind. Deer Antler Velvet has also been used with great success in treating fertility and libido in both men and women.Since the early 1930's, almost 300 different research papers have been published within scientific literature, expounding the benefits of this unique medicine and investigating the compounds that may be responsible. Deer Antler Velvet tips contain a high concentration of type II collagen, which has proven itself very useful in the treatment of both osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. According to a 1993 research paper by Trentham et al entitled 'Effects of oral administration of type II collagen on rheumatoid arthritis', Deer Antler Velvet can promote healthy collagen synthesis and optimal maintenance of joint cartilage. Also, type II collagen can help to inhibit pro-inflammatory cytokines and hence decrease inflammation in the affected joints, a phenomenon that was investigated in detail by Kalden and Sieper et al in their 1998 report 'Oral collagen in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis'. The bioavailable glucosamine, chondroitin, prostaglandins, pantocrin and hyaluronic acid in Deer Antler Velvet can also further support arthritic joint care from their anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties, as reported in the Canadian Journal of Animal Science in 1997 in an article named 'Glycosaminoglycans from growing antlers of Cervus sp.' by Sim and Sun-woo et al. The Medical Hypothesis Journal also reported similar findings in 'Hyaluronic acid and high-dose glucosamine in the treatment of oste-arthritis' by McCarthy et al in 1998.In vivo research has also proven high quality Deer Antler Velvet to be an immune amphoteric - a medicine that acts as an adaptogen to the immune system, either stimulating or pacifying the activity of immune cells according to the needs of the biological environment. This offers a broad spectrum of potential benefits in the treatment of numerous immunological diseases, as determined by a spate of scientific research throughout the 90's (conducted by Suttie et al in 1996 and Church et al in 1999) which focused specifically on Deer Antler Velvet and how it modulates immune function. This in vivo research focused primarily on its beneficial effects on viral infections, tumour growth and chemotherapy.The anti-stress and exhaustion properties of Deer Antler Velvet are one of the most timely benefits for modern humans. It has been prescribed for centuries in cases of exhaustion and severe depletion, and more recent scientific findings have been confirming these benefits from a biochemical perspective. In a human trial that was conducted at the turn of this century, Fisher et al observed the physical training regimen of an entire police squadron in Edmonton, Alberta, and how the test subjects were influenced by the consumption of this medicine. 80% of participants exhibited significant cardiovascular benefits - the more efficient regulation of blood pressure and serum cholesterol caused the parasympathetic nervous system to activate more quickly after exercise, which improved circulation and lowered stress.In the 1980's, Fulder et al explained that the unique glycosides in Deer Antler Velvet had a direct influence on the hypothalamus and pituitary glands in the brain. These glands are the master regulators of our stress response and control the function of the adrenal glands. This is understood (in part) to be the reason why this medicine is such a potent adaptogen.Deer Antler Velvet contains numerous growth hormone precursors which can help with repair and regeneration of muscle tissue, cartilage and bone, as well as metabolising excess body fat and raising energy levels. This assortment of hormonal precursors include amino acids like valine, leucine and isoleucine alongside associated minerals and trace minerals such as magnesium and zinc. This is partly why Deer Antler Velvet is so anabolic and able to stimulate such rapid growth and repair of the antlers during springtime. In the aforementioned study on the Edmonton police force, Fisher et al discovered that oral supplementation increased blood plasma testosterone levels by up to six times the base level.In a Russian study as far back as 1974, Yudin and Dubryakov et al observed that the pantocrin in Deer Antler Velvet enabled a threefold increase in dynamic output and post-workout recovery in track athletes when compared to the control group that didn't receive the medicine. Overall, this adaptogenic result was understood to be caused by not only pantocrin, but the complex interdependence between many compounds.Both Shilajit and Deer Antler Velvet are the new driving forces that direct the medicinal attributes of the Jing Redux formula for obvious reason, however let's take a look at the original herbs that create this restorative product:Prepared He Shou WuThe primary essence replenishing tonic of Chinese herbal medicine - prepared He Shou Wu restores the yin quality of our jing vitality. This herb received a detailed entry in the Chinese medicine classic 'The Great Compendium of Herbs' by Li Shizhen in 1596, where it was stated that daily use for one year would completely restore youthful vitality. It is an organ tonic to both the kidneys and liver and helps to enrich the blood. Throughout history this medicine has been known to reverse grey hair, restore bone density and healthy joint mobility, and has been utilised throughout Asia for many centuries as a powerful anti-ageing tonic. Prepared He Shou Wu is also central to the majority of fertility formulas in Chinese medicine - it can increase sperm count and improve vitality of the ova. It is also widely used as a postpartum recovery agent for women, due to its deeply restorative yin jing properties.This herb can significantly increase one of the body's master antioxidant enzymes known as superoxide dismutase (SOD), which contributes to its longevity effects. This herb should be cooked in a black bean stew in order to activate its potential as a tonic adaptogen. The unprepared herb is a totally different type of medicine - more of a laxative than a restorative. In order to receive the yin jing properties, the tuber must first be three to four years old and needs to be 'prepared' prior to consumption. This will yield the premium quality, deeply regenerative medicine for rebuilding our lost essence and vitality.Prepared He Shou Wu has a heavy and moist energy as a medicine which makes it very grounding and stabilising, but it should be combined with other medicines that exhibit more of a lighter, warm and dry energy in order to balance these polarities and ensure the medicine is the most effective.Prepared Rehmannia One of the quintessential 'yin jing' herbs of Chinese medicine, prepared rehmannia is one of the most restorative herbs to the kidneys, adrenals and to our reproductive fertility, and as such can be combined with Prepared He Shou Wu for optimal replenishment of our vital essence. Not unlike He Shou Wu, it is excellent for nourishing the blood and is a tonic for the liver and heart. The process of macerating and 'preparing' this herb in a tonic wine causes its revitalising properties to become exponentially more powerful. Chinese medicine has always prescribed this herb for rebuilding the body and mind after stress or trauma of some kind, after energy reserves have been depleted and for mitigating the symptoms of ageing. It can replenish marrow and increase bone density, and as the physical reserves of the body are restored, it can serve as a stable foundation for the mind to settle and function with greater efficiency.This has in fact been the focus of modern pharmacological studies - prepared rehmannia has been observed to repair structural abnormalities in the cerebral cortex. In 2018, Haixia Yuan et al found that catalpol (a unique glycoside found in rehmannia) can increase brain-derived-neurotrophic-factor (BDNF), which is a protein that promotes the survival of neurons within the brain. This in vivo trial showed that impulsive, hyperactive and destructive behaviour decreased and brain cell survival increased when test subjects were given an extract of prepared rehmannia.Astragalus RootAstragalus has over 2000 years of documented use throughout Asian medical systems. It is not categorised as a Jing herb itself, however it is one of the premier Qi tonics that supports the animation and healthy circulation of our deepest vitality reserves. Astragalus is a tonic to the spleen and the lungs and nourishes our 'wei qi', which is considered to be a subtle protective forcefield that circulates on the surface of the body. This helps to remove obstruction within the subtle channels of the body and ensure the efficient circulation of all fluids and subtle winds, as well as fortify the first line of defence of the immune system. This is very important because through stress, exhaustion, depletion and ageing, our 'wei qi' and also our 'upright qi' can become weaker, contributing to poor posture, organ prolapse and poor circulation. As a qi tonic, Astragalus can help to rectify such issues during the process of restoring our depleted jing essence.Astragalus has long been used as a respiratory tonic as it is understood to strengthen the lung qi and fortify lung capacity while preventing and treating many pathologies of the lungs. Modern medicine has arrived at similar conclusions, albeit from a different standpoint. A 2013 stduy from Chuan Zou et al found that consistent use of high quality Astragalus could reduce bronchial inflammation and bolster the immune response when dealing with allergies and treating infections of the upper respiratory tract. Astragalus facilitated deeper breathing, a decrease in fatigue and eventually allowed patients to eliminate dependency on the drug prednisone.With its warm, light and yang nature, Astragalus combines perfectly with the heavy, colder and more restorative properties of both Prepared He Shou Wu and Rehmannia. It can stimulate the processes of digestion and improve the nutrient extraction from the food we consume, helping to further strengthen the blood and alongside the circulating wei qi on the surface membrane of the body, it can help to transform the skin to a more radiant complexion.Astragalus has been employed as a highly effective immune system adaptogen for millennia, which is an area of interest that modern scientific medicine has been investigating for many decades now. More than 200 different compounds have been identified in Astragalus, with its range of polysaccharides, flavonoids and saponins among the most studied. The Peking University Health Science Centre in Beijing found that the polysaccharides, flavonoids and triterpenoid saponins in Astragalus could work synergistically to promote greater adaptivity amongst immune cells. Extracts were found to restore balance in the activity of pro-inflammatory cytokines which enhanced the immune response to infection, as well as improving the function of lymphocytes within the body.Interestingly, a unique chemical called TA-65 has been isolated from Astragalus which has been studied for its broad anti-ageing properties. The root of these benefits is considered to be the fact that TA-65 can increase the length of telomeres. Telomeres are structural proteins found at each end of a chromosome. Every time a cell divides, the telomeres shorten, until eventually they completely run out and the cell dies. This process underlies all disease and ultimately, death. However, TA-65 activates an enzyme called telomerase which is in fact responsible for cleaving new sections of DNA which then get added to existing telomeres. This prevents the cell from dying and enables it to live in a functional state for longer. There have been many investigations into TA-65 and its ability to regenerate telomeres, including a comprehensive investigation of Astragalus in 2017 by Ping Liu et al for the National Science Foundation in China.Eucommia BarkMedicinal Eucommia comes from bark that is annually removed from the only species of rubber tree to proliferate within a temperate climate. Sandwiched within the core of the bark is a type of latex - very pliable and elastic - which is where the concentration of medicine can be found. According to Chinese medicine, Eucommia possesses the ability to restore both the yin and yang aspects of the Jing essence, although its energy is predominantly yang. It offers tonic benefits to the kidneys and liver, and is traditionally used to restore spent vitality, to speed up the healing process and to increase reproductive vitality in both men and women. The elasticity at the core of Eucommia is understood to rebuild the physical structure of the body - to promote bone density and the elasticity of cartilage and other connective tissues. This is why Eucommia was routinely prescribed for centuries when treating many kinds of stress, because it could help to reverse the destructive physical toll that stress can inflict upon the body. This also made it central to many herbal formulas for treating arthritis and for injury recovery.Contemporary investigations into Eucommia have revealed that it contains a spectrum of different therapeutic compounds including phenols, lignans, terpenoids, sterols and polysaccharides. A 2016 study led by Tarique Hussein et al explained that Eucommia exhibited cardiovascular benefits and helped to regulate blood pressure, was a very useful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory medicine with immunological properties including antiviral and antibacterial actions. It also showed legitimate potential in the inhibition of neuro-degenerative conditions that lead to dementia by reversing the formation of amyloid plaques, and also demonstrated a protective influence over liver cells.Scientific enquiry of Eucommia has also verified its use as a physcial healing catalyst for bones and connective tissue - glycosides found in the extracts of this species significantly increased bone mineral density and femur strength for in vivo test subjects. A 2007 study from Victor Y C Ong et al published in the Complementary and Alternative Medicine Journal stated that Eucommia extract induced the release of growth hormone responsible for bone remodelling.Epimedium LeafEpimedium is a powerful Jing tonic that is predominantly yang in nature. It has been used for centuries as a reproductive herb for men and women as it is very energising and can stimulate the libido, and is used in female fertility formulas and also when treating erectile dysfunction. Epimedium is typically included in smaller quantities within larger formulas that contain other yin tonics to counterbalance its 'outpouring energy'. Framed within this kind of herbal context, Epimedium is an incredible medicine for replenishing vitality, and indeed, using that vitality. It is also a tonic to the liver and kidneys, as well as being an excellent qi tonic that can help to animate our vitality once restored. It has a warm and drying nature, so again, is best formulated alongside other medicines with cooler, softer and smoother characteristics.More recently Epimedium has been scrutinised in both laboratory and clinical settings in order to determine what the benefits are as well as their mode of action. Firstly, it has proven itself as an anti-fatigue herb that can promote greater bone density, while also helping with arthritic nerve pain and inflammation, as well as a cardiovascular adaptogen that is used in the treatment of hypertension. Icariin - a unique glycoside that has been isolated from this species - is believed to be a major component in these cardiovascular benefits. An in vivo study in 2010 performed by Alan W. Shindel et al also indicated that icariin was effective at stimulating nerves within the genital regions and as a treatment for erectile dysfunction.Nyishar products and the claims made about them on or through this site have not been evaluated by the MHRA or United States Food and Drug Administration and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease.

Product Details - Potent anti-stress adaptogen- Immune system enhancer- Highest antioxidant content- Anti-aging, anti-viral, anti-parasitic, anti-allergy- DNA-protective/cellular regeneration- Rich source of trace elements Supplement FactsIngredients: Wild Inonotus Obliquus dual-extract powder.Net Weight: 100gServing Size: 1g (half a teaspoon)Serving Per Container: 100 Chaga Polaris is the newest addition to our growing range of extract powders, and as you might expect, the production process has seen no corners cut, nor expense spared. The level of production is second to none. Chaga cannot yet be cultivated to medicinally viable standards, so it must be of wild provenance. We use only the purest quality Chaga from the northern-most latitudes of the world. The Chaga sclerotia is sustainably harvested before being tested for environmental pollutants to ensure safety and is then dried before entering the extraction phase.As the various bioactive compounds & assorted nutrients within Chaga are either soluble in alcohol or water, the sclerotia is extracted via pressurised hot water and then extracted via organic ethanol separately - both of these extraction processes are repeated multiple times until the fungal material has yielded everything of medicinal value. It is subsequently spray-freeze-dried to create the resulting fine-grain powder and to ensure it is 100% free from ethanol/alcohol residue. There are absolutely no fillers or additives used in this product whatsoever. This extract is bottled in Miron Violet Glass – the best quality glass in the world – in order to protect and preserve the integrity of this outstanding medicine from ultraviolet degradation.Because the source material is such high quality and the extraction process is so precise and thorough, it results in the most potent & effective Chaga product money can buy. This is not exaggerated marketing - it is scientifically provable fact. Take a look at the authorised 'Supplement Facts' label for this product in the image gallery at the top of this page.Most mushroom extracts are either hot water extracts or they are dual-extracts (hot water & ethanol) but the dual-extraction is performed in a single step (water & ethanol combined). This produces an impure, low potency dual-extract that is low in the bioactive markers we are looking for. Considering Chaga, a thorough & pure, multi-step extraction of high quality wild sclerotia should yield an end product that is rich in bioactive markers such as polysaccharides (in particular beta-glucans) as well as terpenoid compounds like betulin and betulinic acid. There are hundreds of medicinally active compounds in Chaga, but these are some of the bioactive constituents that are naturally present in the highest quantities, are the most researched and that are fundamentally involved in the health benefits we expect from a Chaga product. Therefore it is important for us to test for these as markers for a high quality Chaga extract.The overwhelming majority of extract powders on the market will not specify the exact presence of these compounds, simply because they are not present in any significant quantity, if at all. A high percentage of polysaccharides is not a reliable marker either as many producers are using dextrin, maltodextrin or corn starch as additives to increase the overall percentage of polysaccharides, even though they are not from Chaga and contain no medicinal value. Therefore, analysing for specific beta-glucans gives us a clear picture of just how potent a Chaga supplement is, and the percentage of triterpenes/betulin will show us that a dual-extraction has indeed taken place and many important sterols & triterpenoids are present. The higher the percentages will indicate that a multi-step extraction process has been performed and the product is optimally potent, as well as free from therapeutically useless fillers & additives.Chaga Polaris showcases the true medicinal potency of Chaga mushroom because it has been created for the sole purpose of delivering reliable quality & potency, without cutting any corners whatsoever. This is a very strong and concentrated extract - a little truly does go a long way.Nyishar products and the claims made about them on or through this site have not been evaluated by the MHRA or United States Food and Drug Administration and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease.

Supplement Facts Ingredients: Organic 100% Ganoderma lucidum spore oil, from wild-simulated cell-broken spores. Net Volume: 50ml Serving Size: 1ml (30 drops) Serving Per Container: 50 approx Product Details Halcyon /ˈhalsɪən/ adjective. 1 : calm, peaceful.2 : happy, golden.3 : prosperous, affluent. Enhances immune function Rich source of ganoderic & lucidenic acids Potent anti-inflammatory & antioxidant Restorative to the mind and central nervous system Liver, heart and blood tonic Excellent recovery medicine Reishi Halcyon has taken many years of trial and error to produce. It has been rigorously field tested as well as third party lab tested, revealing that it is indeed the purest and most potent form of Reishi spore oil available anywhere.Traditionally speaking, Reishi was regarded as a supreme medicine that was used for increasing vitality, supporting the mind and emotions as well as preventing and treating an array of illnesses. A growing number of research papers have been published on the profound therapeutic properties of Reishi spore oil - it has incredible anti-inflammatory effects, re-calibrates nervous and immune system functions, has very strong antiviral properties, regulates blood pressure, regenerates liver tissue and seems to be one of the most effective natural substances to repair free radical damage to the cells and tissues of the body.The protective and adaptogenic nature of high provenance spore oil is quite honestly in a league of its own. This is in no small part due to the very high concentration of fungal triterpenes in the oil (ganoderic and lucidenic acids), which is between 3 to 4 times that of even the highest percentages found in concentrated fruiting body extracts.The purest and most efficient extraction method for splitting the sporoderm and harvesting the spore oil is Supercritical CO2 extraction - this allows complete control over the variables so that the end result is 100% pure, unadulterated medicine with no fillers or excipients. This method involves an airtight cylinder that contains the herbal/fungal matter, where pressure and temperature are both regulated and CO2 is introduced. The internal pressure is increased to the exact point at which the sporoderm fractures and the medicinal oil is accessible, and the presence of CO2 is how this medicine is captured.When CO2 reaches its 'supercritical state' it possesses the properties of both a gas and a liquid. This essentially means that within the cylinder, this supercritical gas/fluid is omnipresent - as a gas it captures literally everything of medicinal value, and as a liquid it acts as the perfect solvent to bind to the captured molecules. Once the concentrate has been separated from the original fibre, the CO2 is removed from the chamber so that only the pure medicine remains. In this way, all of the bioactive compounds are perfectly preserved and bioavailable. Nothing is lost or compromised.As the spores are microscopic, it obviously takes an enormous quantity of them to yield a usable amount of spore oil. To put this into perspective, it takes approximately 100kg of dried mature Reishi fruiting bodies to yield 1kg of spores, which is equal to hundreds of fruiting bodies. This amount of spores - when subjected to supercritical CO2 extraction - will produce a mere 50ml of spore oil, which is equivalent to one bottle of Reishi Halcyon!This is a staggering figure to contemplate, but is of course only made possible due to the mindful Di Tao, wild-simulated cultivation methods that practice regenerative agriculture as a core principal. Because the growing environment is enriched more than it is depleted, it is an entirely sustainable process - something modern day agriculture could learn a lot from.In order to achieve the finest possible outcome, the processes involved are resource intensive and time consuming, but the potency of the finished product is beyond impressive. The most recent batch of Reishi Halcyon tested at a minimum of 28.8% triterpenes! Every one of these terpenoids is of pure fungal origin, constituting the vast array of ganoderic and lucidenic acids. It is nothing short of remarkable.You can learn more about the profound health benefits of Reishi and its spores, as well as its history of traditional use, by reading our full monograph HERE. ----- Nyishar products and the claims made about them on or through this site have not been evaluated by the MHRA or United States Food and Drug Administration and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease.

Product Details Imperial Cordyceps - Concentrated Multi-Step Dual-Extract Increases ATP (cellular energy) production Increases oxygen absorption & utilisation Enhances physical & mental performance Increases endurance/anti-fatigue Powerful restorative/rejuvenating medicine Increases lung capacity/improves respiratory function Increases focus, determination & mental clarity Anti-stress adaptogen Enhances libido in both men & women Immune system support Helps regulate blood sugar Antiviral & antimicrobial Supplement Facts Ingredients: Organic CS-4 Cordyceps Sinensis Liquid-Fermented Mycelium, Organic Cordyceps Militaris Fruiting Body Contains: 100g Serving Size: 1g (half a teaspoon) Servings Per Container: 100 Imperial Cordyceps is a concentrated extract that has been produced to the highest specifications currently possible. The extract comprises both liquid-fermented Cordyceps sinensis mycelia and Cordyceps militaris fruiting bodies from silkworm larvae, mirroring the overall composition of wild Cordyceps that has been an important medicine in the East for many centuries. Imperial Cordyceps was the name given to the finest quality Cordyceps sinensis species that was reserved for the royalty and nobility of ancient China and Tibet. However, wild Cordyceps is now the most expensive natural medicine on the planet and fetches upwards of $20,000 per kilo. Sadly it is a completely unsustainable industry that is threatening the biodiversity of the high Himalayan regions. Fortunately it is now possible to cultivate Cordyceps species to an extremely high standard that reflects the potency & quality of the famed Imperial Cordyceps of the Himalayas, and at a fraction of the price. A considerable portion of the wild Cordyceps sinensis 'caterpillar body' would be filled with mycelium, where as the club-shaped fruiting body would extend from the head of its caterpillar host, making up the remaining share of the fungus. However, it is not currently possible to cultivate Cordyceps sinensis so that it produces a mature fruiting body. Cultivation of the mycelia on the other hand, does produce an end result that is very similar and more consistent in quality to that of its wild counterpart. For the fruiting body, another, chemically very similar species called Cordyceps militaris is used, as this species yields a medicinally potent fruiting body much more easily. The mycelia of Cordyceps sinensis is cultivated via liquid fermentation (CS-4) while the fruiting bodies of Cordyceps militaris are grown on a substrate of silkworm larvae. The two species/parts of this fungus are then dual-extracted into pressurised hot water and then ethanol separately - a process which is repeated as many times as necessary to extract everything of therapeutic value. The extracts are then spray-freeze-dried to produce the resulting fine-grain powder as well as remove any residual ethanol/alcohol. The extract powders are then combined and concentrated to be many times more potent by weight than the fungus was originally, prior to extraction. There are absolutely no fillers or additives used in this product whatsoever. This extract is bottled in Miron Violet Glass – the best quality glass in the world – in order to protect and preserve the integrity of this outstanding medicine from ultraviolet degradation. Because the source material is such high quality and the extraction process is so precise and thorough, it results in the most potent & effective Cordyceps product money can buy. This is not exaggerated marketing - it is scientifically provable fact. Take a look at the authorised 'Supplement Facts' label for this product in the image gallery at the top of this page. Like many medicinal mushrooms, Cordyceps contains unique polysaccharides (beta-glucans) that enhance immune function, but unlike other mushrooms (such as Reishi) a high percentage of beta-glucans does not indicate a quality product, because it just shows that it is either a single hot water extract, or a dual-extract where only minimal ethanol has been used. Many of the properties that Cordyceps has become so famous for - such as ATP production, libido enhancement, mental & physical rejuvenation and improved respiratory function - are the result of non-water-soluble compounds such as nucleosides like cordycepin and adenosine etc. Therefore, a thorough and complete dual-extraction where hot water & ethanolic processes are conducted separately, yields an end product that is capable of showcasing the full spectrum of nutrients and beneficial compounds (and their associated health benefits) we are expecting from high quality Cordyceps. If a Cordyceps supplement cannot guarantee the presence and exact percentages of these bioactive markers then we must be skeptical about its value, from a therapeutic perspective. Nyishar Imperial Cordyceps delivers a truly superior product that is a completely pure and rich source of every healing compound that the Cordyceps fungus has to offer. It provides supreme quality & potency without cutting any corners whatsoever.
