Jiaogulan Tea (Gynostemma Pentaphyllum) by Organic Best Quality Fair-Trade Longevity Antiaging Antioxidant Caffeine-Free Tea from Thailand.
These herbs help the body adapt to different kinds of stress, be it physical, chemical, biological, emotional, or environmental, which in turn decreases the organism's susceptibility to illness.
They also help balance the various bodily systems and functions, which is essential for maintaining good health.
With the largest variety of the chemical compounds – called saponins – that give most adaptogens their health-promoting properties, Jiaogulan is arguably the most powerful herb in the group.
While Panax Ginseng – the most famous adaptogen – contains 28 different types of saponins, Jiaogulan contains over 189 of these compounds. That is over 6.5 times as many.
Jiaogulan's many health benefits are in great part due to its unique antioxidant properties.
It can be thousands of times more powerful than antioxidants obtained from diet (like Vitamin C and E) or other teas in helping the body to neutralize free radicals (the cause of aging and a myriad of diseases).
This is because the herb has one of the rarest and most powerful antioxidant properties – it stimulates the body’s own production of the 3 most important antioxidants in existence - Superoxide Dismutase, Glutathione, and Catalase - which have a direct impact on longevity, youthfulness, and good overall health.
These 3 antioxidants are very difficult or impossible to obtain from diet, and unfortunately our body's ability to produce them diminishes as we age. This is why when we are younger we are usually healthy even if we don’t know what a fruit or vegetable tastes like, but become more and more suceptible to disease with age.
By stimulating the production of these internal antioxidants, Jiaogulan enables the body to use its own intelligence to heal itself!
