INGREDIENTS: Lindera root, Ginseng, Licorice, Alpinia fruit, Raspberry, Mantis, Chinese endothelium corneum gigeriae galli, Gingko nuts, Cornus. Urinary incontinence becomes more problematic for women around or after menopause. Primarily, it is due to insufficient kidney Qi. The function of the urinary bladder depends on kidney Qi.

Sometimes, the bladder is so weak that leakage is spontaneous even without any activity. This formula not only strengthens kidney Qi, but also helps to transform the kidney Qi in order to support the urinary bladder. One report showed that 45 cases out of 57 with urinary incontinence from childbirth or gynecological surgery were cured with the herbs in this formula. The remaining 12 cases showed significant improvement. ACTIONS: Strengthens and consolidates the kidney Qi, and astringes the urinary bladder. RECOMMENDATIONS: Urinary incontinence, frequent urination, nocturia. RECOMMEDATION: Take 3 pills three times a day.

This formula has been extensively employed for over 700 years for deficiency in both Qi and Yin. It was one of the first Chinese herbal formulas to be researched through the Western scientific methods. For more than 40 years, extensive research has proven its multiple beneficial effects on the various systems and organs of the body. For the cardiovascular system, it significantly increases blood flow in the coronary arteries and reduces myocardial oxygen consumption MVO2, thereby protecting the heart from oxygen deficit and ischemia.

It also has a dual regulating effect on blood pressure, i.e. it lowers blood pressure in hypertensive patients and raises blood pressure in hypotensives but does not affect those with normal blood pressure. For the blood system, this herbal formula reduces the viscosity of blood, thus inhibiting thrombosis and promoting fibrinolysis. It also improves microcirculation and prevents the onset of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). In the immune system it has broad actions. It can significantly increase the number of the bodys specific and non-specific immune cells, activate mononuclear-macrophage phagocytosis, inhibit IgE-induced release of allergic media, increase the number of T-lymphocytes in the blood, and raise lymphocyte transformation rate. It inhibits the central nervous system, prolongs the incubation period of convulsion and increases tolerance of hyperthermy and hypothermy. It has also been shown to have anti-fever and analgesic effects. For the adrenal glands, it can activate adrenocortical functions without causing thymus atrophy, hyperplasia or atrophy of the adrenal glands.

Liver wind whirling upwards is the main reason for headaches, particularly chronic headaches. Gastrodia, vitex, bupleurum and chrysanthemum are all powerful agents to expel liver wind. When one has suffered from headaches for a prolonged period, the blood vessels and collaterals become congested, causing headaches to become refractory. We add ligusticum, corydalis, safflower and red peony root to dissipate the blockage and invigorate blood circulation. Thus, this formula is more powerful than other formulae, whose sole actions either expel wind or move blood exclusively. ACTIONS: Invigorates blood circulation and controls liver wind.

It drains the damp-heat that is the primary pathogen for hepatitis, promotes the circulation of Qi and blood, and nourishes the spleen Qi and liver blood. Laboratory tests show that these herbs help repair the hepatic parenchymal cells and improve the metabolic function of hepatic cells. This improves liver function and lowers the SGPT level, promoting regeneration of liver cells. It also heightens the ability of white blood cells to induce interferon production (both in mice and humans), strengthens the immune system (especially cellular immunity), and activates immune system antitumorigenesis. Numerous clinical reports have proven the effectiveness of the herbs in this formula in treating chronic viral hepatitis (including, hepatitis B, C and D), liver cirrhosis and other liver diseases.

INGREDIENTS: Angelica, Red peony root, Ligusticum Chuan Xiong, Motherwort, Salvia root, Safflower, Cyperus tuber, Bulrush, Corydalis, Hawthorn fruit, Saussurea root, Zedoary. The primary mechanism for a painful period is blood stasis.

This formula has an anti-coagulating effect, which decreases blood viscosity and thus improves blood flow. It inhibits and synchronizes the contraction of uterine muscles. In a laboratory test, it had a significant, antagonistic blocking effect on PGF2уn and pituitrin-induced intense contractions of isolated uteri. Clinically, its effective rate for membranous endometriosis and primary dysmenorrhea is around 87%. Among them, approximately 77% of cases do not have recurrence within a 3-19 month period.

SuperEnergy
$27.00
1906
INGREDIENTS: Chinese ginseng, American ginseng, Siberian ginseng, Schizandra berry, Salvia root, Extract from deer antler. For thousand of years, Chinese people believed ginseng to be a magical and immortal herb. A plethora of ginseng products, including decoctions, powders, dried chips, pills, extracts, and tinctures, have been developed to meet popular demand for this herb. Since the late 1940s, many prominent scientists and scholars all over the world, particularly in the former Soviet Union, China, Europe and the United States, have devoted their life and energy to the research of ginseng. Soviet scientists first introduced the concept of adaptogen because they found that Siberian ginseng increased the bodys resistance to various harmful stimulations. Under the effects of a standard dosage of ginseng, the body recovers from various diseases regardless of the pathological tendency towards remission or aggravation, while normal physiological functions are not disturbed. Ginseng enhances physical performance and the efficiency of the cerebral cortex. Its distinguishing feature is that the improved resistance to diseases or stress can be noticed only when the bodys resistance is down or the demand on the body is increased. Deer antler is another traditional tonic. Extensive research has confirmed its potent, anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-stress, and anti-cancer effects, as well as its beneficial effects on the cardiovascular, immune, hematopoietic, sexual, and central nervous systems. Schizandra berry, one of a few adaptogen-like herbs, serves to balance the fierceness of the three ginsengs and deer antler extract. Salvia is added in this formula to move Qi and blood, thereby distributing the energy all over the body. This formula not only provides vital energy, but also increases stamina and endurance. It maintains the bodys optimum condition in order to combat the multitude and diversity of social, physical, environmental and mental stress in life. ACTIONS: Replenishes source Qi and ancestral Qi. RECOMMENDATIONS: Stress, fatigue, poor stamina, and for those desirous of optimal performance in daily activities. SUGGESTED USE: Take 2 pills with water as a food supplement, 1-2 times daily.
