Dragon Herbs - Gynostemma (100 caps)

 

In Stock

Description

Gynostemma pentaphyllum leaf is a quintessential adaptogenic herb. Gynostemma leaf is known in Asia as the “Miracle Leaf” and shares a remarkably similar chemical profile with Ginseng. The delicate bright green leaf of this vine-like tropical plant is regarded as one of Asia’s premier herbs. Gynostemma is an adaptogenand antioxidant.

It supports the adaptive response of a human being, and helps us handle stress more efficiently. The primary active constituents of Gynostemma leaf are known as gypenosides. Cumulative studies on Gynostemma since 1976 show that Gynostemma leaf extract contains over 150 naturally occurring gypenosides. These all contribute to Gynostemma’s profound adaptogenic capacity.

This highly concentrated powdered extract is made from the purest, highest grade Gynostemma leaf, grown near the top of Great Immortal Peak, a remote pristine mountain in Southern China, without the use of any chemicals or modern equipment. It is grown totally on mountain spring water and natural precipitation. Most of the Gynostemma sold in the United States is grown at low altitude as an adjunctive farm product, usually around corn fields. The water in these farms is not nearly as pure as the fresh mountain spring water that feeds the Great Immortal Peak Gynostemma plot. Also, the common low lying fields are fumigated and unnaturally fertilized. Dragon Herbs’ Gynostemma is grown in a completely clean, naturally fertile environment. Most manufacturers leave the stems in the Gynostemma before extracting, resulting in a less potent extract. Dragon Herbs uses hand selected leaves only. Gynostemma leaf extract is one of the great dietary supplements in the world..

Remember Ron Teeguarden’s “First Rule of Tonic Herbalism,” summed up in a single word – Compliance. If you don’t take the herbs, they won’t work.”

Further Information

Dragon Herbs practices Tonic Herbalism, which is based on a 5000 year old system of health promotion, protection, and psychological transformation.

The highest level of health care stresses the promotion of positive health as the primary goal. When sufficiently nurtured, our body is fully capable of regulating its own multitude of independent yet united functions, the way nature intended. Science has not been able to, and will never be able to, match that power of Nature. The herbs used for this approach have traditionally been called the superior herbs, but today they are called the tonic herbs. The utilization of the tonic herbs is called Tonic Herbalism.

The tonic herbs are the elite herbs of the Chinese herbal system, the most fully developed herbal system in the world. The Chinese tonic herbs have always held a very special place in Asian culture. These very special natural substances have been associated with the highest qualities of living. The tonic herbs are not harsh and are not specifically medicinal in the conventional sense. 

Tonic herbs come from China. They also come from North and South America, Europe, Indonesia, Tibet, Bhutan, Africa, New Zealand, Korea, Japan, Mongolia, Russia and almost every region of the world. Tonic herbs are by their very nature safe and may be used for a lifetime.
