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

Our Deer Antler Essence is a full spectrum extraction of one of the most profound substances in the anti-aging and longevity category. We source only antler from New Zealand due to its unsurpassed quality and the total dedication of the New Zealand Game Industry Board to the absolutely humane treatment of the animals during the harvesting process. Deer Antler is truly one of nature’s miraculous examples of regeneration and sustainability. In the spring antlers naturally grow at an astounding rate of almost 2 cm daily. At approximately day 60 of the growing cycle, the deer are gathered together from the free range, and the antlers are harvested under the auspices of licensed and trained veterinarians. After a few days, when it has been determined that the animals are all in good health, they are returned the free range for the remainder of the year. After harvesting the antlers are freeze dried and then sliced into thin wafers. It is these thin slices that Jing Herbs then takes delivery of and processes into our potent and full spectrum Deer Antler Essence. We only do full spectrum extractions because we believe nature constructs the products to a state of perfection in relation to active ingredients. When you take a natural product like deer antler, and try to spike the levels of one or two of the ‘active ingredients’, you may be getting the intelligence of the product, but you may be leaving behind the wisdom. We give you the product the way nature intended, in its potent, nutrient rich, non-toxic, full spectrum glory. Let’s now talk about the phenomenal makeup of deer antler. On analysis, antler was found to contain all of these life enhancing and longevity promoting components. Minerals and Trace Minerals Calcium(Ca)- provides structure for healthy bones and teeth, it is also an essential element for nerve impulse conduction, muscle contraction, and blood clotting. It is also interesting to note in the Taoist tradition that this mineral has a calming effect on the spirit. Copper(Cu)-necessary for the production of red blood cells, bones and nerves. Iron(Fe)- essential for the ability of red blood cells to transport oxygen to every cell in the body. Manganese(Mn)- essential for the production and development of bones and connective tissue, and for the normal functioning of the central nervous system. Magnesium(Mg)- very important in making calcium bio-available and essential in metabolic reactions and the storing and releasing of energy in the cells. Phosphorus(P)- another element of bones and teeth, and is a component of the vast majority of metabolic reactions. Potassium(K)- essential to all nerve and muscle functions. Selenium(Se)-one of the bodies’ most powerful antioxidants and essential to a strong immune system. Sodium(Na)- essential in osmotic pressure regulation and nerve and muscle function. Sulfur(S)- an essential component of hormones, vitamins, proteins , amino acids and insulin. Zinc(Zn)- an important mineral in optimal immune function also part of the enzymes involved in digestion and respiration and it is necessary for normal wound healing and healthy skin. Proteins There are several proteins found in deer antler, but the major one is Collagen in the forms of Type I,II,III,IV,VI and X. This protein is a major component of bones, tendons, ligaments and cartilage. You can see why Deer Antler Essence would be a perfect addition to an athletic regimen. Amino Acids Amino acids are the building blocks the body uses to construct proteins and are the structural materials in the cell. They are directly involved in the growth and repair of all tissue in the body. Deer antler contains both essential and non-essential amino acids, they are: Alanine, Asparagine, Aspartic acid, Arginine, Cysteine, Glutamine, Glycine, Glutamic acid, Histidine, Isoleucine, Lysine, Leucine, Phenylalanine, Methionine, Orthinine, Serine, Proline, Taurine, Tryptophan, Threonine, Tyrosine and Valine. Growth Factors When we are young, the concentration of growth factors is relatively high which promotes lean muscle mass and low body fat. But as we age, the production of growth factors slowly begins to decline and the muscles begin to atrophy and body fat begins to be deposited especially for inactive individuals. The growth factors found in deer antler are the following: Insulin-like Growth Factor 1(IGF-1) and Factor 2 (IGF-2). Has an anabolic effect on muscle mass, helps maintain normal fat distribution, helps promote bone health and nerve health. Insulin-like growth factors are also involved in the metabolism of glucose. Epidermal Growth Factor(EGF). Have an effect on the growth and maintenance of bones, promoting protein and fat metabolism, stimulating cartilage growth, and thickening and lengthening bones in children. EGFs also have growth promoting action on the skin. Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF). This growth factor is responsible for priming the cell to enter the cycle of cell division; it also assists other growth factors to stimulate and regulate the re-growth of blood vessels to wound sites and damaged bone. Interleukins These endogenous pyrogens belong to a family of chemical messengers called cytokines. Cytokines stimulate the immune response and activate the phagocyte cells. Interleukin 1- T cell activation by macrophages, fever induction, inflammation promotion. Interleukin 2- T and B cell differentiation and mitosis.

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?

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