Tao in a Bottle

A Remarkable New Anti-Stress Formulation

Tao in a Bottle™ is a revolutionary new anti-stress formulation exclusively from Ron Teeguarden’s Dragon Herbs that promotes profound relaxation without causing drowsiness. It promotes peaceful alertness and mental focus – the perfect Yin and Yang balance that nature intended. Tao in a Bottle™ does not cause drowsiness so it may be used by active individuals performing their normal daily (or nightly) tasks.

A Revolutionary New Anti-Stress Formulation

We all know that life can be stressful, in fact for most people life is innately stressful. Even the things that bring happiness in our lives — our families, relationships, careers and hobbies can be a source of anxiety and tension when times are tough. And the very things we’ve taken for granted as Americans – our safety and freedom – are now an additional source of worry and fear. As a result, many of us are simply feeling more anxious and tense than ever before.

Stress is the root of much of the unhappiness, disharmony and sickness people suffer. Almost every sickness is caused by stress, or greatly magnified by it. It is well established that “stress kills.” Certainly, excessive stress, and our reactions to it, shorten our lives and make life less pleasurable.

Stress management is critical to health and happiness. Humans practice innumerable ways of stress management, from religion (and prayer, meditation, yoga, chanting, service, etc.) to techniques like biofeedback, to recreational sex, to drinking alcohol, to gambling, etc., and to sports and athletics, including working out and dancing, etc.

For millions of people, anxiety and stress is handled in a destructive way. We’ve all heard the terms “comfort food”, “social drinking” or “casual smoking.” These are all destructive forms of self medication aimed at reducing our daily stress.

Tao in a Bottle is a wonderful new herbal discovery. Tao in a Bottle is a 100% natural, totally safe herbal supplement that will help you achieve a natural state of relaxation without drowsiness. In fact, used regularly Tao in a Bottle will actually allow you to deal with your everyday stress without being tense, and will help you improve your performance in whatever you do.

L-Theanine

L-theanine is an amino acid found naturally in green tea. This amino acid has been found to be extraordinarily relaxing. All studies and experience indicate that L-theanine is absolutely safe and has no side effects. It has been widely used in Japan for over forty years in over a hundred products, including gum, ice cream, soft drinks.

L-theanine is a very healthy substance. First, it is an important component of green tea (Camellia sinensis), one of the healthiest substances consumed by human beings. It is a safe and fast-acting stress and anxiety-relieving phyto-nutrient. Numerous studies have shown that when L-theanine is assimilated in the small intestine, it stimulates the brain’s production of alpha waves, which are associated with a sense of profound relaxation, mental focus, and mental clarity. L-theanine also helps you stay relaxed by stimulating your body to produce other calming amino acids, including dopamine, GABA, and L-tryptophan.

Two new lines of study regarding L-theanine indicate that Tao in a Bottle™ is even better for you than we thought.

Improves Sleep

Interestingly, many people in Japan, where L-theanine has been used for over forty years, and more recently in America, have noticed that taking L-theanine can profoundly benefit the ability to sleep easily and soundly. Common sense tells us that if the mind can “shut off the chatter” it will be easier to sleep. Tao in a Bottle™ has been found to do that remarkably well.

A 1999 review study on L-theanine in Trends in Food Science and Technology reported that the brain absorbs L-theanine within 30 minutes and that the a dose of 200 mg increases alpha wave production and relaxation. Animal studies published in Bioscience, Biotechnology and Biochemistry in 1998 showed that L-theanine produced 26% more Tryptophan than rats who ate a placebo. The animals who ate L-theanine also exhibited less anxious behavior than those who didn’t.

Sleep Studies Impressive

In a set of studies recently published in Japan, conducted at the National Mental and Nerve Center of Japan, L-theanine was demonstrated to have profound benefits on sleep in 22 college students who volunteered. The effects of L-theanine on sleep were examined on the students by utilizing a standardized psychological evaluation method and a sleep/waking-state presumption method based on a continuous activity record.

The students were given 200 mg L-Theanine (the same proprietary brand of L-theanine used by Dragon Herbs), one hour prior to sleep.

The following conclusions were obtained:

1. Fatigue recovery by sleep improved

2. Subjects felt sleep was longer than usual, even when it wasn’t.

3. Smooth entering of sleep was facilitated and a good sleep was maintained.

4. Severity and frequency of bad dreams was reduced.

5. Retention and stability of sleep was improved.

6. Subjects tended to evaluate sleep quality as “better” with a sense of improved sound sleep.

7. By improving sleep quality, there is an improved possibility of obtaining effective recovery of the high-level brain function associated with the prefrontal cortex of the brain. As a result, there was a tendency to experience a sense of “improved spirit” at the time of waking and an increase of self-confidence.

8. Frequency of middle-of-the-night awakening was reduced and sleep quality improved. This effect, by taking 200 mg of L-theanine one hour prior to going to bed, was more significant in the later period of sleep. Many of the effects noted in the study, such as improved fatigue recovery at the time of awakening, a sense of an extended sleep period, decrease of severity and frequency of bad dreams, an improvement over retention and stability of sleep, and an improvement of spirit and self-confidence at the time a awakening, were physiologically improved as a result of the improvement of sleep functions during the later period of sleep, namely the sleep immediately prior to the time of awakening.

Based on the study, taking two capsules of Tao in a Bottle each day should help promote better sleep.

Dragon Herbs also produces a bedtime formula known as Lights Out™ that contains L-theanine. It also includes herbs traditionally used to promote sound sleep. Lights Out™ is not a conventional sleeping pill. It will not “knock you out,” nor will it cause drowsiness in the morning. Taking 2 capsules of Lights Out™ half an hour before bed will help you relax and will help most people get a better night’s sleep. It may be taken alone or in addition to Tao in a Bottle™.

Boosts the Immune System

A recent issue of Discover Magazine rated recent discovery that L-theanine is a potent immune booster as one of the world’s 100 top science stories of 2003.

In a study conducted by Jack Bukowski of Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston and Harvard Medical School, and reported in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, it was found that L-theanine, isolated from tea leaf, has a significant immune boosting quality in humans.

In the study, Bukowski and his co-authors isolated L-theanine from tea leaf. They used the L-theanine to conduct a number of studies. Bukowski said that L-theanine is broken down in the liver to ethylamine, a molecule that primes the response of an immune cell called a gamma-delta T cell.

“We know from other studies that these gamma-delta T cells in the blood are the first line of defense against many types of bacteria, viral, fungal and parasitic infections,” he said. “They even have some anti-tumor activity. The T cells prompt the secretion of interferon, a key part of the body’s chemical defense against infection,” Bukowski said.

“We know from mouse studies that if you boost this part of the immune system it can protect against infection,” he said. “We worked out the molecular aspects of this tea component (L-theanine) in the test tube and then tested it on a small number of people to see if it actually worked in human beings,” said Bukowski. The results, he says, gave clear proof that five cups of tea a day sharpened the body’s defenses against disease.

Tao in a Bottle Is Convenient

Unfortunately, it is difficult for most people to consume five cups of tea a day. Therefore, consuming a capsule or two of Tao in a Bottle, which provides the L-theanine equivalent of 10 cups of tea, will do the job of boosting the immune system. That, in combination with the other immune boosting herbs in Tao in a Bottle, should be more than enough reason to start your day with a couple of capsules of Tao in a Bottle.

Tao in a Bottle Q & A

What is Tao in a Bottle? Will I actually be relaxed during a stressful day?

Tao in a Bottle is a new and unique formula designed by Master Herbalist Ron Teeguarden
It is designed to help us handle stress.
Tao in a Bottle is unlike anything that has been available before.
The main ingredient is an amino acid called theanine. Theanine is an amino acid found only in green tea.
Theanine is the first herbal ingredient that helps you to feel calm and alert at the same time, and it works quickly to release tension and worry.
Tao in a Bottle also contains special adaptogenic herbs. If you use Tao in a Bottle regularly, you will become more resistant to stress.

What do we mean by “relaxation?”

Relaxation is a natural state of being that occurs when we are not stressed.
When we are relaxed, we feel like our “true selves.”
When we are relaxed, we are not nervous, and we do not come from a place of fear, worry, anxiety or anger when reacting to the events of our lives and the people we encounter
We often make mistakes because of our anxiety, then we feel disappointed in ourselves, and that just adds to our stress.
We all have moments when we feel really “on.” There are different names for that feeling: “in the groove”, “in the flow.” Ron Teeguarden calls that feeling a state of “peaceful alertness”
When you take Tao in a Bottle, the tension just melts away
When you use Tao in a Bottle regularly, you can experience that state of peaceful alertness the majority of the time.

Is it true that I will feel the affects of Tao in a Bottle within minutes, and are there long-term benefits?

Most people feel an effect within 30 to 40 minutes, and the results can last an entire day.
When you take it every day the effects are actually cumulative.
Over a period of time you’re ability to handle stress will increase.

Will this help me at work and at home?

Yes, when you are relaxed and focused at work you can work more efficiently without making mistakes, and you make better decisions when you are thinking clearly. Work stress can be debilitating, and work is by its very nature stressful. Sometimes, it is very stressful and can cause psychological breakdowns and physical problems like ulcers and headaches, or worse. Those who can handle more stress win in business. Tao in a Bottle is fantastic for people who lead stressful lives and it is certainly beneficial to those who are engaged in stressful business activity. Studies have shown that theanine improves learning and concentration, so certainly, it will help us perform better at work.
Tao in a Bottle will also help at home. As a result of being more relaxed, most people find that they can relate and interact better with their families. People find that their children do not irritate them and that they tend to fight less often with other members of the family. In a positive sense, people find that they are more open and creative when they are relaxed and alert, and therefore they have more fun with their families. They tend to be more engaged and the concept of “quality time” takes on new meaning.

Will Tao in a Bottle help me if I am a student? Is it OK to give to my kids?

Studies conducted in Japan indicate that theanine improves learning. It is widely used in Japan specifically for that purpose. It is used by students of all ages to promote relaxation and alertness. It has a calming effect that promotes mental endurance and concentration over a number of hours, and students say that they find studying more interesting and enjoyable.
Theanine is used in candies and ice cream in Japan. However, it is probably best suited for children over the age of ten years old (though there are no known contraindications for smaller children). A ten-year old child may consume 50 milligrams of theanine, twice a day. That is ½ a capsule of Tao in a Bottle, two times a day, dissolved in juice. Children fifteen years and older may take a full dose of 100 to 200 milligrams a day – that is one or two capsules of Tao in a Bottle each day. Theanine has been proven to be completely safe.

What if I am really shy, will it help me open up at parties or even on a date?

Shyness is actually a fear of social situations
Tao in a Bottle helps put you in the state of “peaceful alertness”
When you are in the state of peaceful alertness, you can more easily open up to people and communicate your true nature
When we’re relaxed and communicating our true nature, people naturally like us more and are attracted to us.

Do we recommend Tao in a Bottle for athletes? Will it affect my sharpness or reaction time?

Professional athletes use adaptogenic herbs to improve their performance and concentration.
Tao in a Bottle contains the same herbs that we give to world-caliber athletes. Athletes around the world, including Olympians and professional superstars, such as NBA all-stars, use herbs like ginseng, Siberian ginseng, rhodiola and astragalus.
The adaptogenic herbs used in Tao in a Bottle are completely safe, absolutely legal, and extremely reliable.
Athletes also talk about being “in the zone,” “in the groove” or “in the flow.” That’s the same state of peaceful alertness that we have been talking about.
Theanine does not cause drowsiness like other herbs touted for their relaxation benefits, such as kava or valerian root. In fact, it promotes clarity and sharpness. Athletes find they make quicker, better decisions on the spur of the moment and therefore perform better under the stress of competition.
Tao in a Bottle will help an athlete remain emotionally balanced, even under the most stressful circumstances. This can be the difference between winning and losing. Yet it does not reduce the desire to succeed or the competitive edge – in fact, many athletes find they are better focused and can direct their aggressiveness properly toward winning and achieving athlete perfection.

If I am a martial arts practitioner, will Tao in a Bottle take away my competitive edge?

No, Grasshopper. Every serious practitioner of the martial arts understands the connection between a calm, steady, clear and focused mind and success in the martial arts. Theanine is not a sedative – it does not cause drowsiness, laziness, listlessness or spaciness. Instead, it causes the mind to go into an alpha state. This is the perfect state of mind for any competition, including combat. Also, the great adaptogenic herbs in this formula, including ginseng, astragalus and Reishi have been used by martial arts masters, including those of the Shaolin Temples in China. They are superb Qi tonics that increase vitality and inner power.
Ron Teeguarden’s primary teacher, Taoist Master Sung Jin Park, was an eighth-degree black belt in seven martial arts. Master Park was second in the world in Hapkido. He used these tonic herbs every day of his life and recommended that Ron do the same.

Does Tao in a Bottle have any other benefits for athletes?

Yes. It has been proven that theanine improves recovery from hard physical activity. Bodybuilders use it to recover more quickly. Any athlete wishing to recover more quickly may use it. It is ideal for runners, bicyclists, ball players, skiers, rock climbers, triathletes, etc.
Tibetan rhodiola increases oxygen in the blood stream, by as much as 100%. This increase in oxygen can vastly improve endurance, concentration and shear energy. Many Russian Olympic athletes, cosmonauts on the space station Mir, and mountain climbers scaling the highest mountains in the world have used rhodiola.
Eleuthero has been demonstrated to increase athletic endurance and concentration.

What are alpha waves, and what is the effect of Tao in a Bottle on our alpha waves?

The brain generates brain waves that can be measured at the surface of the skull. The waves reflect our state of mind. Alpha is the designation for the state of mind, and thus the shape of the brain waves, that occurs when a person is in a perfect state of conscious balance – awake, alert, focused, and totally relaxed.
When alpha waves increase we feel calm and alert, relaxed and yet not drowsy, unstressed and clear. Many people say they feel more “present.” Most people say they can concentrate better and with less effort.
An “alpha state” is a very healthy state of mind. In most instances during our daily life, it is the perfect state of mind.

Is Tao in a Bottle is a natural product?

Absolutely. Tao in a Bottle is 100% natural and contains no added salts, wheat, gluten, corn, coloring, dairy products or preservatives.

Does Tao in a Bottle contain caffeine, ma huang, kava or anything like that?

No. Tao in a Bottle does not contain any stimulants or sedatives. Adaptogenic herbs have “double-direction activity.” If your body-mind needs to be active, these herbs foster activity. If your body-mind needs to be quiet, these same herbs foster rest and recovery.
Caffeine and ma huang (ephedrine) are stimulants that can increase our sense of anxiety and ultimately contribute to our stress.
Many people find that kava creates drowsiness. Recent studies indicate kava may cause liver damage.

What is L-theanine?

The principal ingredient in Tao in a Bottle is called L-theanine.
L-theanine is an amino acid found naturally in Green Tea.
Scientists have known for a long time that theanine promotes relaxation, but they only recently learned how to produce it in an economically practical way, using a sophisticated fermentation technology.
It’s been available in Japan for over twenty years and is used as a nutritional supplement to promote relaxation without drowsiness. But it is not only used as a nutritional supplement – it is also available in soft drinks, candy and chewing gum to help people relax and to recover from hard physical workouts.
It just became available for the first time in the United States.

Would I get a similar benefit by just drinking Green Tea?

It would take 10-20 cups of Green Tea in one sitting to get a similar amount of the theanine found in a single serving of Tao in a Bottle.

Can I purchase a similar product anywhere else?

Tao in a Bottle is a totally unique product, developed by Ron Teeguarden to promote relaxation without drowsiness within minutes, and to build the body-mind’s ability to handle stress over time. By combining theanine with the world’s most powerful adaptogenic herbs, every aspect of our ability to handle stress is addressed.
Concentrated green tea capsules that you find in health food stores have very little theanine and will not have the same effect as taking Tao in a Bottle.
The quality of the herbs used to produce Tao in a Bottle is different from that used to make the commercial products found in natural food and drug stores – it is far superior, as are all Dragon Herbs products.

What about PMS, with its monthly mood swings, aches and pains? And will Tao in a Bottle help those who are going into menopause?

Studies conducted in Japan have demonstrated that women who suffer from PMS symptoms are greatly benefited by theanine.
Taking theanine significantly relieves both the emotional and physical symptoms of PMS. Take 1 capsule in the a.m. and 1 capsule in the p.m. to reduce or eliminate all the symptoms of PMS.
The effect of Tao in a Bottle on menopausal moodiness has not been studied yet, but anyone who is tense and whose mind achieves an alpha state should feel more relaxed.

How will Tao in a Bottle affect our sex lives?

One of the biggest obstacles to sexual performance and enjoyment is tension and anxiety (insufficient Jing and blood are the most relevant physical causes of sex-related problems). Anxiety can completely sabotage sexual performance, and this can lead to long term impotence, premature ejaculation and frigidity.
Many people find that Tao in a Bottle is better than a glass of wine or a warm bath to get them in the mood.
People with too much sex drive, and who have difficulty managing or controlling this energy, can also greatly benefit from Tao in a Bottle because it helps us gain control of ourselves.

Why are there adaptogenic herbs in Tao in a Bottle?

Adaptogenic herbs are a class of herbs that help us adapt to stress. They provide energy (vitality) that specifically helps us to deal with stress of any kind
Adaptogenic herbs are not specifically medicinal
They have been used for over 2000 years to make life easier, more enjoyable, satisfying and more fulfilling. They are the most important herbs in the world because they promote a long, healthy, happy life.
Adaptogenic herbs help us to maintain balance under stressful circumstances, and they help us recover from stress more quickly and effectively.
They protect us from many of the influences in nature that cause us to age more quickly, including pollution, radiation, toxins, and the free radicals caused by stress. All the adaptogenic herbs used in Tao in a Bottle have been proven to boost our immune system, while mitigating excessive immune responses such as those that cause auto-immune disorders and allergies. Adaptogenic herbs are extremely beneficial.
As a result, we can deal more effectively with things that usually make us tense, anxious and angry.

Is there anything like Tao in a Bottle available in health food stores?

No. The main ingredient is new to the American market.
As far as we know, this is the first time anyone in the America has blended theanine, which provides immediate relief from stress and tension, with the adaptogenic herbs which make us more resistant to stress over time.
The quality of the herbs in Tao in a Bottle is superior to that of most products in the marketplace. Ron Teeguarden personally travels to China to pick out only the highest quality of herbs that are rarely if ever sold in this country in health food stores. Dragon Herbs guaranties that its herbal ingredients are the finest in the world.

How do we use Tao in a Bottle?

Most studies indicate that the effective dose for theanine is between 50 and 400 mg. per day. Tao in a Bottle capsules each contain 100 mg. We suggest taking 1 to 4 capsules each day, according to your level of stress and they way you react to Tao in a Bottle.
Many people take 2 capsules in the morning, and that lasts all day.
Many people take 1 capsule in the morning and 1 capsule in the afternoon. That is the method used in the PMS studies done in Japan.
Some people take 1 capsule in the morning, 1 capsule in the afternoon, and 1 in the evening.
Some people find that taking 1 or 2 capsules at bedtime results in improved sleep. And when they wake up, they are relaxed, energized and ready to go.
In other words, there are many optional approaches to using Tao in a Bottle and each person will find what’s best for them.

Most people feel a benefit within 30 to 40 minutes the very first time they try Tao in a Bottle, and will feel the same response every time.

Should we continue taking Tao in a Bottle when we begin to feel better everyday?

Yes. To get the long term benefits of increasing your resistance to stress, you need to take it regularly.
Tao in a Bottle is not habit forming, but may be used every day as a tonic formulation.
It’s a daily supplement for your well being. Tonic herbs (also called adaptogenic herbs) may be taken on a daily basis to nurture radiant health.

How does Tao in a Bottle work with other herbal products?

Tao in a Bottle is a Shen-stabilizing adaptogenic Qi tonic.
Shen stabilizing herbs help stabilize our emotions so that we can experience our higher self.
Adaptogenic herbs increase our vitality while promoting our ability over time to handle stress.
Qi tonic herbs increase our energy, help regulate our bodily functions, and regulate our immune system.
Theanine helps a person relax. Stress inhibits or distorts virtually every important function of our body and mind, so theanine may be helpful no matter what a person’s condition or state of health and well being.
When a person is relaxed, other herbs will have a better chance of entering the body and effect a positive change. Therefore, we recommend taking Tao in a Bottle with every herbal program.
Stress is the root of most energy

Caffeine and ma huang (ephedrine) are stimulants that can increase our sense of anxiety and ultimately contribute to our stress.
Many people find that kava creates drowsiness. Recent studies indicate kava may cause liver damage.

What is L-theanine?

The principal ingredient in Tao in a Bottle is called L-theanine.
L-theanine is an amino acid found naturally in Green Tea.
Scientists have known for a long time that theanine promotes relaxation, but they only recently learned how to produce it in an economically practical way, using a sophisticated fermentation technology.
It’s been available in Japan for over twenty years and is used as a nutritional supplement to promote relaxation without drowsiness. But it is not only used as a nutritional supplement – it is also available in soft drinks, candy and chewing gum to help people relax and to recover from hard physical workouts.
It just became available for the first time in the United States.

Would I get a similar benefit by just drinking Green Tea?

It would take 10-20 cups of Green Tea in one sitting to get a similar amount of the theanine found in a single serving of Tao in a Bottle.

Can I purchase a similar product anywhere else?

Tao in a Bottle is a totally unique product, developed by Ron Teeguarden to promote relaxation without drowsiness within minutes, and to build the body-mind’s ability to handle stress over time. By combining theanine with the world’s most powerful adaptogenic herbs, every aspect of our ability to handle stress is addressed.
Concentrated green tea capsules that you find in health food stores have very little theanine and will not have the same effect as taking Tao in a Bottle.
The quality of the herbs used to produce Tao in a Bottle is different from that used to make the commercial products found in natural food and drug stores – it is far superior, as are all Dragon Herbs products.

What about PMS, with its monthly mood swings, aches and pains? And will Tao in a Bottle help those who are going into menopause?

Studies conducted in Japan have demonstrated that women who suffer from PMS symptoms are greatly benefited by theanine.
Taking theanine significantly relieves both the emotional and physical symptoms of PMS. Take 1 capsule in the a.m. and 1 capsule in the p.m. to reduce or eliminate all the symptoms of PMS.
The effect of Tao in a Bottle on menopausal moodiness has not been studied yet, but anyone who is tense and whose mind achieves an alpha state should feel more relaxed.

How will Tao in a Bottle affect our sex lives?

One of the biggest obstacles to sexual performance and enjoyment is tension and anxiety (insufficient Jing and blood are the most relevant physical causes of sex-related problems). Anxiety can completely sabotage sexual performance, and this can lead to long term impotence, premature ejaculation and frigidity.
Many people find that Tao in a Bottle is better than a glass of wine or a warm bath to get them in the mood.
People with too much sex drive, and who have difficulty managing or controlling this energy, can also greatly benefit from Tao in a Bottle because it helps us gain control of ourselves.

Why are there adaptogenic herbs in Tao in a Bottle?

Adaptogenic herbs are a class of herbs that help us adapt to stress. They provide energy (vitality) that specifically helps us to deal with stress of any kind
Adaptogenic herbs are not specifically medicinal
They have been used for over 2000 years to make life easier, more enjoyable, satisfying and more fulfilling. They are the most important herbs in the world because they promote a long, healthy, happy life.
Adaptogenic herbs help us to maintain balance under stressful circumstances, and they help us recover from stress more quickly and effectively.
They protect us from many of the influences in nature that cause us to age more quickly, including pollution, radiation, toxins, and the free radicals caused by stress. All the adaptogenic herbs used in Tao in a Bottle have been proven to boost our immune system, while mitigating excessive immune responses such as those that cause auto-immune disorders and allergies. Adaptogenic herbs are extremely beneficial.
As a result, we can deal more effectively with things that usually make us tense, anxious and angry.

Is there anything like Tao in a Bottle available in health food stores?

No. The main ingredient is new to the American market.
As far as we know, this is the first time anyone in the America has blended theanine, which provides immediate relief from stress and tension, with the adaptogenic herbs which make us more resistant to stress over time.
The quality of the herbs in Tao in a Bottle is superior to that of most products in the marketplace. Ron Teeguarden personally travels to China to pick out only the highest quality of herbs that are rarely if ever sold in this country in health food stores. Dragon Herbs guaranties that its herbal ingredients are the finest in the world.

How do we use Tao in a Bottle?

Most studies indicate that the effective dose for theanine is between 50 and 400 mg. per day. Tao in a Bottle capsules each contain 100 mg. We suggest taking 1 to 4 capsules each day, according to your level of stress and they way you react to Tao in a Bottle.
Many people take 2 capsules in the morning, and that lasts all day.
Many people take 1 capsule in the morning and 1 capsule in the afternoon. That is the method used in the PMS studies done in Japan.
Some people take 1 capsule in the morning, 1 capsule in the afternoon, and 1 in the evening.
Some people find that taking 1 or 2 capsules at bedtime results in improved sleep. And when they wake up, they are relaxed, energized and ready to go.
In other words, there are many optional approaches to using Tao in a Bottle and each person will find what’s best for them.

Most people feel a benefit within 30 to 40 minutes the very first time they try Tao in a Bottle, and will feel the same response every time.

Should we continue taking Tao in a Bottle when we begin to feel better everyday?

Yes. To get the long term benefits of increasing your resistance to stress, you need to take it regularly.
Tao in a Bottle is not habit forming, but may be used every day as a tonic formulation.
It’s a daily supplement for your well being. Tonic herbs (also called adaptogenic herbs) may be taken on a daily basis to nurture radiant health.

How does Tao in a Bottle work with other herbal products?

Tao in a Bottle is a Shen-stabilizing adaptogenic Qi tonic.
Shen stabilizing herbs help stabilize our emotions so that we can experience our higher self.
Adaptogenic herbs increase our vitality while promoting our ability over time to handle stress.
Qi tonic herbs increase our energy, help regulate our bodily functions, and regulate our immune system.
Theanine helps a person relax. Stress inhibits or distorts virtually every important function of our body and mind, so theanine may be helpful no matter what a person’s condition or state of health and well being.
When a person is relaxed, other herbs will have a better chance of entering the body and effect a positive change. Therefore, we recommend taking Tao in a Bottle with every herbal program.
Stress is the root of most energy

Dragon Herbs Dragon Herbs Spring Dragon Longevity Tea

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.

Dragon Herbs Dragon Herbs Desert Cistanche Drops 2oz

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

Dragon Herbs Dragon Herbs Super Adaptogen 100caps (500mg)

Super Adaptogen If someone were to take just one formula, this could be the one. This is a full spectrum adaptogenic formula that nurtures all Three Treasures, Jing, Qi and Shen. An adaptogen is a substance that helps bring the body into a state of harmony with its environment by inducing chemical, cellular, and systemic balance as a response to the changes in the environment. This harmonizing function reduces the effects of unfavorable conditions and stimulates the body's own immune and healing functions. Adaptogenic substances help the body to adapt to various stressful challenges presented by the environment and reduce the damage inflicted on the body through the normal process of adaptation. Adaptability is the measure of life for all plants and animals, and it is the measure of a human’s life as well. Adaptogens tend to support the body’s own ability to cope successfully with stress, thus promoting wellbeing.Super Adaptogen contains many of the most potent tonic herbs in the world. Super Adaptogen nurtures all three treasures, and in particular, it tonifies the adaptive Qi. However, this is definitely a complete tonic formulation.* This formula contains most of the super-adaptogens, and provides an abundance of adaptogenic phytochemicals and phytonutrients. Adaptability Enhancement We human beings are intimately interconnected with our environment. Any change in the environment influences us both physically and psychically. How we handle such changes, how we adapt to the changes in our environment and to the stresses of life, will be the determining factor in our health and well-being. Conversely, as we change, the environment around us will be influenced and will reflect our changes. The greatness of Oriental natural philosophy lies, to a great degree, in its subtlety and breadth of vision with regard to the connection between the human being and their environment. The tonic herbalist recognizes such environmental influences as the change of seasons – the wind, heat, cold, dryness, moisture, and so on – as fundamental factors in one's health. Adaptability requires energy. The greater the stresses of life and the more dynamic the changes in one's life, the greater the requirement for adaptive energy. The very purpose of using Chinese tonic herbs is to aid the body-mind in its adaptive needs. The greatness of the Chinese tonic herbs lies in their adaptogenic quality; that is, their ability to enhance the body-mind's capacity to adapt optimally, accurately and with endurance, to changes in the environment, and thus to overcome the stresses of life. By replenishing the energy of the cells, tissues and systems that regulate our adaptability, we find ourselves capable of experiencing life at its fullest. We find ourselves with increased physical, mental and emotional endurance. We find ourselves easily handling stresses that would exhaust others. We find ourselves to be resilient on every level. This adaptability allows us to lead a rich, broad, adventurous life. When the body is working very well, we automatically adapt accurately. This is part of the miraculous self-regulatory mechanismsbuilt into every cell of our bodies. This accurate adaptability is a key to radiant health. When you are radiantly healthy, nothing will bother you. If it’s very hot, your body adjusts and you feel just fine. If it’s cold, you adapt to that. People who adapt easily tend to be successful at life. But stress depletes this adaptive energy. Eventually, as we age or face life’s challenges, we may not have enough adaptive Qi, and we start to misadjust. In addition, as we become less capable of adapting, we become more and more aware of the stress and a vicious cycle occurs. The Chinese tonic herbs are among the best tools on earth for combating stress. Obviously, it is better to avoid stress in the first place, or at least to submit ourselves to a minimum. Along with meditation, yoga and deep breathing techniques, Chinese tonic herbs are the perfect natural way to help deal with stress. The herbs should not be taken like drugs to overcome stress. Tonics aren’t meant to be used like that. Adaptogenic tonic herbs are true dietary supplements that help the body to maintain balance under stressful conditions. By taking the adaptogenic herbs continuously, even when stressful factors are not strong, we can handle stress more easily and overcome our problems with less agitation. It takes energy to handle stressful events and forces. The tonic herbs provide that energy. If you are in a weakened condition and a stressful event occurs, of course you will feel more vulnerable and more stressed than if you had plenty of energy to deal with the problem. That is natural. The point, then, is to never run out of adaptive energy – always have reserve energy so that when stress peaks you can deal with it without exhausting yourself. The Primary Adaptogenic Herbs that Help You Fight Stress of Life All of the herbs used in Chinese tonic herbalism contribute to our adaptability. That is the very nature of a “superior herb.” But some herbs have special reputations for helping people adapt and to handle stress in a superior way. Here are the super-adaptogens, the tonic herbs that everybody should be taking to protect themselves from stress. Furthermore, all of the herbs in this powerful formula are immune modulators, which means that these herbs can be used by anyone to support their normal healthy immune functions. The Herbs in Super Adaptogen Tibetan Rhodiola Root Tibetan Rhodiola is an extraordinary herb. It is a rare herb that grows in one of the harshest environments in the world. In the Orient, it is called “Plateau Ginseng,” and the Tibetans considered Rhodiola to be a sacred herb. It has been used by the Tibetan people as a powerful adaptogenic vitalizer since the beginning of Tibetan civilization. Rhodiola has also been prized by the Chinese for over two thousand years ago. It is regarded as a life-prolonging, wisdom enhancing “superior herb.” However, the rarity of TibetanRhodiola has prevented it from becoming a well-known commodity outside of Asia until now. A relative known as Rhodiola rosea, from Russia, has become popular in popular herbalism because it can be cultivated and thus is much more available, but TibetanRhodiola is considered far superior in Asia. Tibetan Rhodiola is a superb herb for people who work very hard, either physically or mentally. Tibetan Rhodiola has been shown to improve endurance and mental capacity, including memory enhancement. It has been shown to be a superb tonic and energizer for those into physical fitness, and a superior tonic for those stuck behind a desk or at a computer terminal for long periods of time. Consumption of a small amount of Rhodiola extract significantly improves a person’s capacity to absorb and utilize oxygen. Tibetan Rhodiola is especially beneficial to those who live under stressful conditions. It has been shown that Tibetan Rhodiola reduces the body’s stress reactions, and thus relieves moderate mental stress as well. People stay focused and suffer far less from fatigue even under stress. It is the ideal herbal supplement for the modern world. It also supports immune functions. Ginseng Root Asian Panax Ginseng has been known for its ability to help people handle stress for thousands of years, and is now used by millions of people to help handle stress more effectively. Ginseng may be consumed on a regular basis so that when stress occurs, the body and mind are fully energized and ready. Asian Ginseng is a quintessential energizer, but also relieves common anxiety. Gynostemma Leaf Gynostemma is a quintessential adaptogenic herb. Gynostemma contains over 100 saponins that contribute to the adaptability of any individual who consumes it. Gynostemma eases tension and builds energy. It has general, safe, inflammo-regulatory action throughout the body without causing any side-effects. It has no medical benefits for any medical conditions, but helps maintain and support immune balance. Eleuthero Root (Siberian Ginseng) Eleuthero is the equal of Ginseng in its adaptogenic capabilities. Some authorities think it is stronger. Eleuthero, which is also known as Siberian Ginseng, contains saponins which support the nervous system and endocrine system. It is an immune modulator (supports normal, balanced immune functions). It is an excellent mind tonic. Astragalus Root Astragalus Root is one of the most powerful natural agents in the world at regulating the functions of the body. It is a fundamental Qitonic and should be a part of any adaptogenic, anti-stress formula. In fact it is a quintessential double-directional herb, one that helps regulate the immune system. It is a superb adaptogen. Reishi Mushroom Reishi Mushroom is the perfect herb for these times. It is strengthening, protective and calming to the nerves. It is both a potent Qitonic and the ultimate Shen tonic. It is the perfect anti-stress herb. It helps to center you. When you’re taking Reishi you feel adaptive and you feel protected. Super Adaptogen is made with genuine “log-grown” Duanwood Reishi fruiting bodies. Goji Berry Goji provides the reserve energy necessary to handle just about any difficulty. It is said traditionally that constant consumption ofGoji will beget a cheerful attitude, and there’s nothing like good cheer to overcome stress. Goji, like the other super-tonicadaptogens, helps make you strong, relaxed and resilient. Eucommia Bark Eucommia is a superb Jing tonic, used to strengthen the back (especially the lower back), skeleton, and joints (especially the knees and ankles). Eucommia is believed to confer strength and flexibility to the ligaments and tendons. It is often used by martial artists, yoga practitioners, Qigong practitioners, and other athletes to strengthen the back, knees, and the entire body. Eucommia is widely used in China as a safe and effective sex tonic for men and women. It provides powerful and safe fundamental adaptive energy to the body. He Shou Wu (Polygonum multiflorum) Constant consumption of this famous "longevity herb," whose full Latin name is Polygonum multiflorum, is said in the Orient to help “return an aging person to youthfulness and to keep a young person young.” It is an unsurpassed Yin Jing tonic, as well as a major blood tonic. It is said to increase energy and to clean the blood. As an Jing tonic, it is believed to be a powerful sexual tonic when consumed regularly. He Shou Wu supports sperm production in men and supports fertility in women. It is used in almost all tonics that are believed in the Orient to nurture the hair and teeth. This herb has been consumed by almost every Taoist that has lived for the past five hundred years, and is fundamental to the practice of the Taoist inner arts. Schizandra Berry Schizandra is a major adaptogenic herb. Schizandra helps keep you relaxed and alert and supports the nervous system. Schizandra is considered to be one of the premium mind tonics of herbalism. It is used to support concentration, memory and alertness. Yet, unlike caffeine-like stimulants, Schizandra does not produce nervousness. In fact, Schizandra is mildly “calming” while producing wakefulness and mental focus. Steamed Rehmannia Root Steamed Rehmannia is said to be the “Kidney’s own food." It is a Kidney tonic found in many formulations for rejuvenation and longevity. It is also considered a premium blood tonic and is said to benefit sexual functions in men and women. SteamedRehmannia is said to be warm in nature. Polygonatum sibericum Root Polygonatum Root is a Qi and Yin Jing tonic that is said to have a specific benefit on the brain. It is restorative to mental vitality, especially when the mind has become fatigued from work. It is often used in Shen and Jing tonics to nourish the brain and support the mind. This herb has been very popular among Taoists and all Qigong practitioners because of its supportive effect on the brain. White Atractylodes Root White Atractylodes is an important and potent Qi tonic that is famous for regulating the digestive functions and as a powerful energy booster. Jujube Date This special tonic fruit has been used since ancient times as a tonic, a blood cleanser, and as an important adjunctive herb to other tonics. Jujube is universally believed in the Orient to build strength and increase energy. Jujube supports healthy energy flow. Ginkgo Leaf Ginkgo is used to support blood circulation. The leaves of the Ginkgo tree are used in the Orient to "benefit the brain," by supporting memory and the ability to concentrate. It is now known that Ginkgo leaf extract supports oxygen supply to the brain and other organs, including the genitals and skin. It is traditionally used to support the heart and lungs.

Dragon Herbs Dragon Herbs Wild Red Reishi Drops 2fl oz (60ml)

Wild Red Reishi Drops Reishi Mushroom (Ganoderma lucidum) is currently recognized as one of the most important and beneficial tonic herbs in the world. Reishi has been the most revered herb in Asia since pre-historic times. Sages and emperors sought this herb to confer health, well being, good fortune and wisdom. Reishi is now widely cultivated, but Wild Reishi is very rare. It is not possible to collect very large amounts of it. It is special because it is totally natural. In the wild, it is a superb collector of Qi and Shen energy. It is called the “Herb of Spiritual Potency” and the “Mushroom of Immortality.” Reishi has only been cultivated for the past thirty years. Originally, of course, Reishi was collected in the wild. The historical records only discuss Wild Reishi. Dragon Herbs has developed a relationship with local herb collectors in the high altitude regions of Changbai Mountain, the Di Taoauthentic source of Reishi. These amazing people spend their entire lives scouring the remote pristine forests looking for the rarest herbs – Wild Reishi, Wild Ginseng, Wild Schizandra, Wild Asparagus, and so on. We are fortunate to have a limited but steady supply of truly wild Reishi mushroom. These mushrooms are not planted or wildcrafted by humans. They grow where they will, where they are perfectly suited. The growing environment is extremely harsh (alpine). As a result, they develop great power. Dragon Herbs Wild Red Reishi Drops is made from pure WILD Red Reishi Mushroom fruiting bodies. The “fruiting body” is the part that looks like a mushroom. This is exactly the same Reishi that has been revered as the “Mushroom of Immortality.” We do not use any mycelia (underground growth), and there are no additives of any sort in the production of Dragon Herbs Wild Red Reishi Drops. Dragon Herbs uses only Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies – we do not mix species in this product. (If you want mixed mushroom species, see Dragon Herbs 22 Reishis, a proprietary blend of 22 wild mushroom varieties from various remote mountain sources from Mongolia to Tibet to Manchuria to Kunlun and beyond.) Wild Red Reishi, because it is WILD, possesses more Shen than cultivated varieties of Reishi. Most hot-house Reishi, which is usually made from only the artificially generated mycelia, possesses little Shen, if any. No herb on earth is more capable of supporting the development of Shen than WILD Red Reishi. Wild Red Reishi is much more difficult to analyze and quantify than cultivated Reishi. The mushrooms grow on different varieties of trees, and grow in different environments on the mountain. This variety is perhaps of special value, but it means that there is no way to standardize the product. Dragon Herbs does mix mushrooms collected from various ecological niches on Changbai Mountain, so that the wildness of the Reishi is accentuated. Furthermore, the mushrooms are of course not all of the same age. Some are “Grandfather Reishi,” some are middle aged, and some are young (though we only use mature Reishi fruiting bodies in our product). This age difference does mean that the chemical constituents in different mushrooms will be different. We, of course, consider this to be a benefit because it expands the range of phytochemicals. Dragon Herbs Wild Red Reishi Drops is one of the most wonderful herbal products available in the world. It is produced with exacting care to extract both water and alcohol soluble components and to protect the energy and spirit of the mushrooms. Wild Red Reishi Drops is a very potent 8:1 hydro-ethanolic extract. That means that it takes 8 pounds of these Wild Red Reishimushrooms to make one gallon of finished extract. Even if you regularly consume a Duanwood Reishi product such as Duanwood Reishi capsules or Supreme Protector, you owe it to yourself to consume a bottle of Wild Red Reishi from time to time – or to make it part of your regular Reishi regiment.* Traditional Function: Tonifies Qi and Shen. Who can use it? People who want to take Reishi for its Shen benefits. Concentration: 8:1 Specifications: 2 fl. oz Ingredients: Wild Changbai Mountain Red Reishi fruiting body. Other Ingredients: water, alcohol Usage: 3-12 droppers per day or as directed by your health care practitioner Remember Ron Teeguarden’s “First Rule of Tonic Herbalism,” summed up in a single word – Compliance.

Dragon Herbs Dragon Herbs Yin Replenisher Drops 2fl oz

Yin Replenisher Drops The Herbs in Yin Replenisher Dendrobium is a very important and wonderful tonic herb. Dendrobium stems and pods help replenish Yin Essence (Yin Jing) and generate fluids. Dendrobium is primarily used in China to replenish fluids. It is commonly used in Chinese herbalism as a Yin tonic which moistens the Stomach and Lungs and respiratory tissues. It may be used by healthy individuals to maintain and support healthy fluid balance in the body. However, the truly great value of Dendrobium lies elsewhere. Taoist sages, who were the masters of longevity (and much more), have routinely used Dendrobium as a daily tonic for many centuries. Dendrobium (which is the stem and leaf of a number of varieties of Dendrobium orchid that are now cultivated for use as a tonic herb) is a Jing tonic herb. Dendrobium is especially useful in quickly and effectively replenishing spent adaptive energy. Dendrobium has been traditionally used to replace spent Yin Jing of the Kidney. The Kidney is considered to be the whole body’s reservoir of Yin Jing, so replenishing the Yin of the Kidney replenishes the whole body. In replenishing and increasing Jing, Dendrobium increases the generative force. Dendrobium is especially famous for relieving temporary fatigue that may result from sexual activity. For those who maintain a balanced sex life, Dendrobium is said to help build superb sexual vigor. Dendrobium, being a Kidney Yin tonic, increases the sexual fluids in men and women. The Taoists say that Dendrobium fills the Kidney meridian up with new vitality. It nourishes the Yin of the Kidney and nourishes the saliva, which the Taoists call the “Precious Fluid.” It is a superb herb for athletes for the purpose of maintaining fluids during exercise or sports. Ron Teeguarden's Taoist Master Sung Jin Park, was a great proponent of Dendrobium for anyone who lives an active life and who desires to remain youthful and beautiful. A great benefit of Dendrobium lies in its beauty-promoting quality. Dendrobium helps keep the skin moist and constant use helps generate beautiful skin. When combined in a person’s program with other skin nourishing and cleansing herbs like Goji and White Peony, a person’s skin will become smooth, radiant, supple and clear. Rehmannia is a Kidney tonic. Raw Rehmannia has a cold, moistening action. Goji is a major Yin tonic that tonifies the Kidneys and benefits the skin and eyes. Ligustrum is a tonic to the Kidney and Liver and Anemarrhena is a Yin tonic that counteracts false fire.* Traditional Function: Nourishes and replenishes Yin Jing and body fluids* Who can use it? Anyone who requires Yin replenishment Concentration: 8:1 Specifications: 2 fl. oz. Ingredients: Dendrobium stem, Raw Rehmannia root, Goji berries, Ligustrum lucidum fruit, Chinese White Peony root,Anemarrhena rhizome. Other Ingredients: water, alcohol.

Dragon Herbs Dragon Herbs Changbai Deer Antler Drops 2fl oz (60ml)

Deer Antler Drops Deer Antler is considered to be one of the "big three" ultimate “herbs” (dietary supplements) of China - Ginseng, Reishi Mushroom and Deer Antler. All three are tonic herbs that have been used since pre-historic times to prolong life, improve energy, to protect the body and to promote wisdom. They are not used to treat any kind of ailment, but to support normal healthy life functions so as to promote wellbeing and longevity. Deer Antler is a Yang Jing herb, but it also tonifies Yin Jing, Qi, Blood and Shen. It therefore tonifies all three Treasures. Deer Antler contains mucopolysaccharides that promote the regeneration the antler tissue in the deer. This same substance supports regeneration of tissue to those who consume it. Deer Antler extract is considered to be the most powerful Yang tonic dietary supplement and is usually the main herb in any formula in which it is included. Deer Antler is used by athletes to support muscular strength. Deer Antler extract consumed as a dietary supplement supports the human in vivo production of IGF-1, a vital substance closely related to human growth hormone that regulates metabolism and hormone functions. Deer Antler extract is used to support the skeletal structure, especially the back and knees. Deer Antler helps support cartilage and joint function. As a dietary supplement that supports neurological functions, Deer Antler extract is also widely used to support mental power. Deer antler has also been demonstrated to support cardiovascular function. Deer Antler extract contains hyaluronic acid, a natural substance, also produced in the human body, that maintains elasticity of the skin and connective tissue. Deer Antler is also well known as a sexual tonic for both men and women. Deer Antler is suitable to both men and women, though men will generally consume Deer Antler in larger quantities. It is a Yang tonic that helps restore sexual vigor and performance for decreased sexual function associated with aging. Why Dragon Herbs Deer Antler Drops is Unique Dragon Herbs Deer Antler is a unique product in the U.S. market. There are dozens of other “deer velvet” products available, but Dragon Herbs Deer Antler Drops is the ONLY product made ENTIRELY from Deer Antler tips. What does that mean? And what does that mean for you? Deer Antler grows from its “tips.” As it grows, the soft body of the antler hardens, while the growing tip remains soft and bio-chemically rich. It is just like the fresh leaves at the tip of a growing plant. It has been estimated that 90% of the biologically active constituents of the ENTIRE antler is contained in just the last inch of the antler, known as the "tip," even if the antler is 18 inches long. The tip of the antler is of course more expensive than the lower parts of the antler, because those deep into the trade know that this is the most valuable part. This has been true for a thousand years. However, since the tip contains most of the active constituents of the entire antler, it is in fact a fabulous value. It may cost three times as much, but it is at least 10 times as potent. Again, Dragon Herbs ONLY uses tips (the soft last inch of the deer antler) to make its Deer Antler products, including Deer Antler Drops. We never use the "middles" or "bottoms" of the antler since these parts are hardened, dry and lack the chemical components that make Deer Antler biologically active in humans. Unfortunately for consumers, other companies are now putting the word “tips” on their description of deer antler. They are doing this in response to Dragon Herbs educating the public about the differences in deer antler products. However, they show no evidence of actually using tips. A deer antler, as sold in a Chinese herb shop, is divided into three divisions, tips, middles and bottoms. That part growing closest to the end, usually the last inch of each branch of the antler, is called the tip. The segment from that beginning of the tip to the fork of the antler is called the middle and the main trunk of the antler is called the bottom. All three segments of the deer antler are used in Chinese tonic herbalism. The bottoms, because they are the largest segment, are most commonly available and most widely used in commercial products. The middles and tips are generally only available in herb shops, except in rare products that feature these segments. A Note about the Deer Dragon Herbs deer are farmed in Changbai Mountain, and are certified by the Chinese Ministry of Health to be clean and safe. Since the deer are so valuable and since deer antler is essentially a renewable “crop,” deer are highly protected in all Asian countries. They thrive under the conditions established. The antler is cut off the live deer when the antler has developed either two or three branches, yet remains relatively soft (depending on the part of the antler) and covered by “velvet,” usually in the month of June in China. The Dragon Herbs team has visited the deer farm of our supplier in a beautiful valley on the Western slope of Changbai Mountain, a volcanic region in Manchuria, on many occasions and can testify that the deer are in fantastic health and are well cared-for. The deer are fed their favorite natural diet, including mulberry leaves, their favorite food. The deer are housed in clean open sheds with corrals where they have 24/7 opportunity to move about and eat. They are allowed to run freely in the hills associated with the farm during the day, and at night return to the protected housing where they are kept safe from predators (wolves and large cats). The deer used by Dragon Herbs are NOT killed to harvest their antlers. The antlers are humanely and painlessly collected from male deer in the early summer – when the antler is about six weeks old and still covered in a coat of “velvet” – females do not produce antler, except for elk, which Dragon Herbs does not use. After this harvesting, the deer then grow new antlers as the season progresses and this second set of antler is not harvested. Because the antlers that do grow into the fall are smaller, the male deer tend to fight considerably less. The life expectancy of the male deer from whom the antler are collected is significantly longer than that of wild deer, who often die as a result of excessive male-with-male libido-driven fighting and from starvation. Far more of the male deer mate as a result of this process, which makes them very happy indeed. Deer are highly valued in the Chinese culture and are respected and loved by their care givers. Deer are considered in Asia to be a “higher order” animal. Quality - Different Species, Different Results Selecting high quality deer antler is an art. There are many sources, grades, cuts and qualities --- and there are counterfeits. The antler plays a major part in male sexual role of the male deer. Larger antlers are produced by deer that are more sexual and this deer antler is more potent. However, size alone will tell you only a little about the quality of a selection of deer antler. Dragon Herbs has used the same established source of deer antler tips for many years. Deer Antler can have a number of origins. Deer Antler entering the American market may originate in China, Russia, Mongolia, Alaska or New Zealand. All of these places have robust Deer Antler businesses. They all produce excellent deer; however, the quality will differ depending on the processing and the variety of deer. Sika Deer is considered to be the best deer antler, but it is rare. These are small spotted deer that are natural to northeastern Asia. This kind of deer has been absolutely revered in Asia for its deer antler since ancient times. Over hunting reduced the supply to nearly zero, but they are now humanely farmed in northeastern China and their antler is again available in limited quantities. This deer is also known in China as the “spotted deer” and as the “flower deer,” since their white spots are actually shaped like a flower. You will see the Sika deer alongside Shou Lao, the God of Longevity, in old Chinese paintings, and also alongside Magu, the Goddess of Youth and Beauty. The symbolism is obvious. The Sika is a small deer and its antlers are likewise small. But small is not the issue, potency is. These deer are extremely well cared-for. This is the most valuable antler in the world. Previously, Dragon Herbs only used Sika Deer Antler in its private reserve productions, but now it is available to everyone, so long as it is available each year. And remember, the tips are by far the most precious and most expensive part of the deer antler. Due to our on-the-ground connections in Asia, we can provide this premium quality Deer Antler at the same price, or lower, than inferior products. And remember, these deer are protected and live an astounding life. These deer live longer than fully wild deer. They are allowed to roam free during the daytime in local hills and forests, and then they return to their shelter at night where they are fed mulberry leaves, their favorite food. Do not fear for our deer, they have it very good. Mallow Deer, also known as the “horse deer,” is another popular variety of deer from which their antler is harvested. This is the most common variety of deer antler available in China. It is very good (but not as good as Sika deer antler). Mallow deer farms are abundant in northeast China. These very hardy, very large deer (thus the name “horse deer”) produce large antlers and therefore are valuable to the farmers on a pound-by-pound basis. These deer are well cared-for. Red Deer from New Zealand is commonly sold in the U.S. market. New Zealand is a very special place. It is clean and its government keeps it that way. Deer farming is a big industry in New Zealand. Red deer produce quality antler, though not as potent as the antler from Sika or Mallow deer. These deer are very well cared-for. A large number of the New Zealand deer are slaughtered for their meat, which is consumed in Australia and exported overseas. The deer are not nearly as protected in New Zealand as they are in China. Dragon Herbs has established a permanent relationship with a Sika Deer cooperative in Changbai Mountain. Currently, due to our good fortune, Dragon Herbs only uses Sika Deer to produce all of its Deer Antler products, including Deer Antler Drops. And from these Sika Deer, we only use tips cut from the last ¾ inch of the antler. This is why Dragon Herbs Deer Antler Drops is a unique deer antler product in the American market. Primary Functions: To tonify the Kidney Qi and fortify Yang. Also tonic to Yin Jing and Blood, and supporting to the sinews and bones. Supports the heart and mind. Treasures: Jing (Yin and Yang), Qi (especially Blood) and Shen Atmospheric Energy: Warm Taste: Sweet and salty Channel Associations: Liver and Kidneys. Also tonifies the Heart and Brain, and the Governing, Conception, Penetrating and Belt Channels of the Extraordinary Channels system. Uses Deer Antler is the most precious and the most potent of the substances that fortify the yang energy of the Kidney. Deer antler is widely used in Asia, and now throughout the world, to support adrenal, reproductive and brain functions. It is universally believed in the Orient to support sexual strength and to support virility and fertility. In the highly regarded tenth century Taoist manual on health and sexual conduct, The Essence of Medical Prescriptions, compiled by a Chinese physician living in Japan by the name of TambaYasuyori, it was said that: “There is nothing better than deer antler to cause a man to be robust and unaffected by age, not to tire in the bedroom, and not to deteriorate either in energy or in facial coloration.” Deer antler is commonly used in combination with most of the major Qi tonic herbs such as Ginseng and Astragalus, and with all of the major Yin and Yang Jing-building herbs such as Goji Berry, Morinda root, He Shou Wu, Epimedium (Horny Goat Weed), Schizandra, Mountain Ant, etc. Although deer antler has always been used to help build blood and support blood circulation, modern research has supported deer antler’s reputation as a heart tonic. Particularly the alcohol extract of deer antler is consumed for this purpose. Deer antler is tonic to the marrow, which produces blood. Marrow tends to degenerate as we age and deer antler is believed to support marrow maintenance. This may be a major aspect of deer antler’s youth preserving ability. Consistent long-term use is believed to re-build deep life force, preserve youthfulness and to enhance longevity. Scientific Knowledge Deer antler is a rare type of organ in the higher animal kingdom. It is one of the few complex organ structures which regenerates in an annual rhythm and which will regenerate if shed, cut or broken off. This regenerative power is what has most intrigued scientists in recent years, just as it has the Asian people through the ages. Studies conducted in Europe indicate that the ability to regenerate is partially due to the rich supply of substances known as ectosaponins. These complex chemical agents are found more abundantly in lower animals, in which the ectosaponins cause a wide variety of tissues to regenerate. The ectosaponin in deer antler is very similar to ectosaponins found at the tail bases of many lizards, such as the Gecko lizard, and in the legs of star fish. If the tale is broken off a Gecko or similar lizard or the appendages broken off a starfish, these appendages re-grow --- bone, connective tissue, nerves, blood vessels, flesh and all (no bones in star fishes). The ectosaponins extracted from deer antler, as well as from Gecko and star fish all have shown remarkable regenerative effects on all types of tissue, including nerve tissue, which generally does not regenerate significantly. Research indicates that moderate doses of the alcohol extract of deer antler supports cardiovascular function by helping to support cardio-regulatory mechanisms, and by supporting circulation. Numerous studies done in China, Japan, Russia and Korea have shown that deer antler supports muscular and mental endurance, supports sleep and supports normal appetite. Deer antler has been shown to support the oxygen uptake of the brain, liver and kidneys in laboratory animals. It also supports red and white blood cell production in laboratory animals. Deer antler extract provides minerals, amino acids, and other nutrients. Deer antler supports insulin-like growth factor IGF-1 functions in the human body. • IGF-1 supports immune functions • IGF-1 supports muscular the metabolic functions that provide strength and endurance • IGF-1 supports normal growth • IGF-1 supports cardiovascular functioning • IGF-1 supports sleep functions • IGF-1 supports eyesight, including night vision.* Traditional Function: Reinforcing Kidney Yang, tonifies Yin Jing, tonifies blood* Who can use it? Those who wish to increase primal Yang energy Concentration: 4:1 Specifications: 2 fl. oz. Ingredients: Deer Antler tips. Other Ingredients: water, alcohol.

Dragon Herbs Dragon Herbs Shou Wu Formulation (100caps 450mg)

Shou Wu Formulation Shou Wu Formulation is a Jing tonic designed to nourish the Kidney Yin, build and maintain Qi, and to enrich and maintain the blood. Shou Wu Formulation can be used as a basic Essence (Jing) tonic by men and women. It is a superb rejuvenation formula. The formula is headed by Polygonum multiflorum (He Shou Wu), one of the most powerful tonic herbs known to mankind. In addition it contains other major tonic herbs. This product supports adaptability, enhances sexual and mental energy, supports the back and knees, supports hair growth, fortifies the senses, builds blood and supports the reproductive tissues and organs in healthy men and women. It is a primal Jing tonic that may be consumed for a lifetime.* The Herbs in Shou Wu Formulation He Shou Wu Root Polygonum multiflorum is one of the most important and widely used Chinese tonic herbs. It shares the position as the primary essence tonic of Chinese herbalism with Goji Berry and Prepared Rehmannia Root. The He Shou Wu plant is traditionally believed to be capable of absorbing huge amounts of Qi from the earth it grows in, and stores this Qi in its root system. He Shou Wu (Polygonummultiflorum) is a tonic to the Kidney and Liver functions. It helps tonify the vital essence and blood. He Shou Wu is a very effective blood tonic. It has been used for this purpose for over two thousand years. Recent research corroborates this ability to build healthy red blood cells in healthy individuals. It supports healthy muscles, tendons and bones. It also helps support healthy aging, helps maintain the youthful condition and color of the hair, helps maintain healthy sperm and ova, and helps support the back and knees of normal, healthy individuals. It is the premier longevity herb of Chinese tonic herbalism. Prepared Rehmannia Root Prepared Rehmannia Root is traditionally said to be the “Kidney’s own food.” It is a fundamental Kidney tonic in Chinese tonic herbalism, and is considered to be a primary longevity herb. It is found in a great many common “anti-aging” formulations. It is considered rejuvenating and life supporting. Prepared Rehmannia Root is a fundamental Yin Jing tonic, providing Yin Jing directly to the Kidney system. The “Kidney” system in Chinese philosophy encompasses the tissues and functions associated with the skeleton, adrenals, sexual glands and organs, the renal system, and the ability to store Jing. Prepared Rehmannia Root is said to benefit sexual functions in men and women and is included in almost every formula that is designed to strengthen reproductive functions, including fertility in healthy individuals. It forms the Yin base of many men’s potency formulas. Prepared Rehmannia Root is a major blood tonic in traditional Chinese herbalism. This is of course of special importance to women, who always need to rebuild blood. Prepared Rehmannia Root, when combined with Dang Gui becomes an even more potent blood tonic. Dang Gui is Chinese herbalism's premier blood tonic. Prepared Rehmannia Root is usually combined with at least one Qi tonic to improve its assimilation and effectiveness. In this formula, Eleuthero (Siberian Ginseng), a major Qi tonic, is used. Eleuthero is a superb adaptogen and is also an excellent blood tonic. It quickly increases vitality as well. Aged Citrus Peel, Red Jujube Date, Licorice Root are all Qi tonics that have the special purpose of helping to regulate Qi and improve digestion and assimilation of the main herbs in this formula. He Shou Wu and, to an even greater degree, Prepared Rehmannia are very rich, so these three herbs are included to make the He Shou Wu and Prepared Rehmannia easily digestible.* Traditional Function: Tonifies Yin Jing and Qi Who can use it? Shou Wu Formulation can be used as a basic Essence tonic by anyone, young or old, male or female. It is a superb antiaging and rejuvenation formula. Concentration: 10:1 Specifications: 100 Capsules 500 mg each Ingredients: He Shou Wu (Polygonum multiflorum) root, Dang Gui root, Eleuthero root, Prepared Rehmannia root, Aged Tangerine rind, Red Jujube fruit, Chinese Licorice root.

Oxiceutics | MyReuteri 20 Billion | 30 capsules, Oxiceutics

Product is as expected and seems to be doing what Dr Davis suggested, and the Longevity Essentials service was outstanding 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Neprinol AFD 300caps (Arthur Andrew Medical)

I had a large varicose vein on my leg that’s been causing me problems for years. I’d received a substantial quote to remove it using sclerotherapy. I’m 70. My daughter bought me these tablets for my general health. I take 3 in the morning and 3 at night. After about two weeks of taking these, my painful varicose vein disappeared. No need now for vein treatment. I feel great - I certainly do not feel 70! My daughter had bought these previously from another website but will now buy from longevity. Brilliant service and quick delivery.

Modifilan Brown Seaweed Extract, 90 Capsules, 500 mg

As well as removing metals from your body, these capsules are great for constipation, and continue to work long after the end of a bottle. And of course, completely natural.

Dragon Herbs Young Lungs 100 capsules 500mg

Take the mucus-melting, phlegm-expelling properties of Free The Lungs, combine with the cough-disappearing effect of Golden Air, add the ability to breathe deeper, and I still would not have encapsulated all the benefits that Young Lungs seems to provide. This formula has blown me away. For total respiratory health, this is THE product.

The Energy Blueprint - Energenesis 432.5g

I have adrenal insufficiency and another crash/hospital admission left my body very depleted. I've been taking an arsenal of supplements to support my cellular health and recovery but I have definitely felt a difference in energy levels since starting the energenesis - i could almost feel my cells tingling! The taste is very sweet and I find adding it to a smoothie makes it more palatable. It is on the pricey side but for me the science makes sense and it's a worthwhile investment in my health - thank you for bringing this product to my attention!

Surthrival Colostrum 180caps 500mg

Third bottle of this I’ve had, the best colostrum out there. It tastes so delicious out of the capsule, even one pill somehow manages to improve digestion, give my skin a bit of a glow and give me a mood boost! I don’t know what it’s doing to have that effect on my mood, lowering inflammation in the gut or immune enhancing I don’t know, but it’s also stimulating and hard to sleep for me if I take too much, so I have to go slow. Love it and wish I could take tons as it’s literally one of the most beneficial supplements I’ve ever taken.

Living Libations Green Papaya & Lime AHA mask

I have quite sensitive skin so wondered how my skin would react to this product. I applied a thin layer over my face and left for 15 minutes then lightly massaged and rinsed off with warm water. My skin felt soft and smooth after, and was not dried out. I'm looking to using it weekly/bi-weekly as part of my skincare routine.

Tried the small bottle first with good results for my divericularitis & chrohn’s

Carol Rider

Zymessence 180 capsules, WAM Essentials (Dr Wong)

Highly recommend. Certainly notice once stop taking. For chronic symptoms 3 per day on an empty stomach seems to help although the label advises one capsule for maintenance.

Mr Oxygen's SUPER OxyFlush 120caps

Firstly, I have been a client of Longevity Essentials for the last two years. Wonderful family business. I found this company just by chance when I found the Aggressive Health Book written by the founder of this website/company – Mike Nash. Fab book that is the genesis of my health program. Mr Oxygen Super Oxyflush is heaven sent. I have been taking for nearly four weeks and what an improvement in my gastrointestinal system. If you have more than one of the following - digetive issues, constipation, bloating or gas, taken in the past antibiotics, strong craving for sweets, bread or alcoholic drinks, psoriasis or skin infections, have had parasites, dealing with fatigue, depression, poor memory or nervous tension, dry skin, rashes, nail infections. Circulatory problems – cold hands and feet. This product along with the following will help: I am currently taking it with the Mr Oxygen Oxyflush and the Immune Tree liquid Oxygen. It best to take them all on an empty stomach – first two capsules of Oxyflush, NEXT take the Oxysulfur with ascorbic acid, NEXT take the Immune Tree Liquid Oxygen. These three will diffidently clean and purify your digestive tract, every organ, blood vessel and cell in the entire body. It does this by liquefying the waste in the system and passing it out through the bowels and urinary tract. Mr Oxygen’s OxySulfur is absolutely the best on the market in my opinion. I have been taking MSM Sulphur for the last three years only noticing moderate results. However, after taking OxySulfur for just four weeks I noticed a vast difference. My hair is shiny and bouncer, my fingernails are strong and white, and my skin is smooth as satin and radiant. Just recently I purchased the last in stock, that is how good this product is.

Dragon Herbs Deer Antler Drops 240ml (8floz), Dragon Herbs

This stuff is changing my body faster than anything else. Fat is melting away yet since taking deer antler I've become ravenously hungry, needing to eat every 2-3 hours. I can tighten my trouser belt by another notch, all my clothes feel much looser on me, and my sciatica seems eased. This is an extremely potent supplement.

Ancestral Supplements - Grass Fed Natural Desiccated Thyroid 180caps 500mg

I will have to check again next month to make sure it is this medicine that helped me and shocked me. My TSH on October 16 was just over 100. On that day I started with 6 capsules a day, I got tested today, and my TSH is 12, that is a massive drop within 2 months. I took adrenal with this at 4 caps a day. I never noticed anything physically, like less brain fog, more energy....although my toilet is much better. I will report back in another 2 months, I should have normal TSh range. :) Along with taking this medicine, I have done Ujjai pranayam, a special way of breathing for 10 mins a day, and general exercise and I drank a teaspoon of coriander in warm water every other day.
