Life Force

Description

Herbal Spotlight:

Nettle Leaf

Tonic: Nettle is probably one of the most nutrient dense plants on the planet. This is why Nettle is considered a nutritive tonic. Tonics aid in deeply nourishing the body. 

Alterative: Nettle is considered to be blood building. As an iron rich herb, supplementing iron contributes to creating the protein hemoglobin which is the protein molecule in red blood cells. Nettles have more iron than spinach, providing a vital plant base support for anemia.

Diuretic: Nettle reigns supreme as a diuretic, flushing excess water through the urinary tract and strengthening the urinary tissues.  

Anti Inflammatory and Antihistamine: perfect for relieving allergies, both environmental and food related. 

Moringa Leaf

Tonic: Moringa tree is also known as the ‘miracle tree.’ The leaves are packed full of antioxidants and immune building vitamins, such as vitamins A, C, B1 (thiamin), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacin), B6 and Folate. They are also rich in magnesium, iron, calcium, phosphorus, and zinc.

Fight Inflammation: Inflammation is how a body naturally responds to pain and injury. Moringa leaves are anti-inflammatory in nature due to the presence of isothiocyanates and niazimicin. These 2 constituents reduce inflammation, reduce the risk of chronic health issues, and boost the immune function.

Antioxidant: The antioxidants present in Moringa leaf protect the liver from free radical damage, support healthy blood glucose levels, increase brain function, and may also aid in the relief of indigestion.

Burdock root

Alterative – Blood Cleansing: One of the best herbs to gently cleanse the blood and lymphatic system of impurities. Also, aids in relieving skin disorders.

Diuretic: Supports the chambers of elimination (liver, kidney, and urinary) in removing toxins

Bitter Tonic: Warming digestive tonic that supports the production of bile from the gall bladder, while aiding in the proper breakdown and assimilation of nutrients from the diet. May also relieve digestive disturbances.

Pre-Biotic: Contains unique prebiotic sugars that enhance the microbiome of the digestive and urinary system. This provides deep immunological support.

Codonopsis root (Dang Shen)

Tonic/Adaptogenic: Often used as a much gentler replacement for Ginseng. Codonopsis acts as a potent Adaptogenic “Life Force” herb, especially when there is a need for recovery from illness or when there is a feeling of “being worn down.”

Tonifies the Spleen + Regulates Blood: Stimulates blood production by increasing both white and red blood cells. Aids in circulation and removing stagnation from the lymph system.

Lung Tonic: In Traditional Chinese Medicine, this is a key herb in rebuilding the vitality of the Lungs.

Promotes Peace: Codonopsis creates a grounding energy and promotes an overall feeling of deep nourishment and comfort in the nervous system.

Jiaogulan leaf (Gynostemma) 

Antioxidant: Rich in chlorophyll and many unique compounds that enhance superoxide dismutase activity and delay aging.

Tonic/Adaptogenic: Traditionally used to increase vigor, relieve fatigue, support the function of the spleen + thymus, and supports the overall function of the immune system.

Nervous System: Jiaogulan increases the bodies ability to adapt to stress, thus promoting a more relaxed nervous system.

Respiratory System: An excellent natural remedy against a number of respiratory issues including coughs, asthma, and bronchitis.
