Shipibo Treasure Tea – Communion with ancient medicine

October 29th, 2009 admin No comments

Shipibo Treasure Tea is an ancient formula named after the Shipibo tribe in the Amazon to provide overall health, energy, immune strength and regeneration.”

treasure_tea_lg

Shipibo Treasure Tea contains Chanca Piedra, also called Quebra Pedra, which literally means “stone breaker.” In the Amazon jungle indigenous people have used Chanca Piedra for ages to help eliminate excess calculi formation. It works by relaxing the smooth muscles around the ureter and bile duct, easing the release of stones. Chanca Piedra is also a tonic for the digestive system and is effective at creating an intestinal environment unfavorable for intestinal parasites. In India, Chanca Piedra is called Budhatri and is used for treatment of various conditions of the lung and airways.

Chanca Piedra fortifies the liver and gallbladder and helps clear system obstructions. It helps with viruses of the reproductive organs and hepatitis. It is an immune system stimulator. It helps eliminate mucous and stones from the kidney, gallbladder and urinary tracts. It also increases bile production, soothes the liver and disperses calcification.

Shipibo Treasure Tea contains Jatoba, an Amazon plant known to support digestive and pulmonary health. Jatoba is especially known for its overall strengthening properties. In the jungle it is used to make a wine that workers drink to support long hours of hard work.

Jatoba helps to decongest the urinary tract and can be excellent for cystitis, and bladder and prostate infections. It has been used as a system energizer, fortifier and decongestant. It has been used for treating respiratory problems.

Used for centuries by the people of Amazonia, Uña de Gato is recognized as one of the most important botanicals in the rainforest for its antioxidant properties and for its wide range of health benefits. It is also known to help maintain blood pressure in a healthy range and stimulate the immune system (increase macrophage activity). Because of its numerous health benefits, Uña de Gato is one of the most widely recognized plants of the rainforest. The name “cat’s claw” comes from the claw-shaped thorn beneath the leaves.

Uña de Gato from the Peruvian rainforest is a favorite for stimulating the immune system. World wide research done on this powerful herb has led scientists to patent many of the single chemicals found in it for use in healing cancer, arthritis, AIDS and other diseases. However, traditional wisdom shows that using the whole plant can be far more powerful than any one isolated ingredient. Dr. Brent W. Davis referred to Uña de Gato as “the opener of the way” because of its remarkable ability to cleanse the entire intestinal tract. Because of this ability, Uña de Gato can be used for Crohn’s Disease, hemorrhoids, parasites, leaky bowel syndrome, ulcers, gastritis, allergic disorders, diverticulitis, stabilizing intestinal flora and other gastro-intestinal issues.

Uña de Gato
is also a powerful anti-inflammatory which makes it very useful for arthritis and other inflammatory diseases. It also helps to increase lymphocyte and microphage production, toniify the blood, and can be used as a broad spectrum infection fighter. Uña de Gato also helps repair the lipid matrix in the cell walls and is particularity good for stopping the expansion of virus laden cells.

At the University of Milan, Renato Rizzi led an experiment with Uña de Gato as it relates to cancer causing (mutagenic) substances in smokers. It is well known that the urine of smokers contains mutagenic substances. When given Uña de Gato for two weeks, the smoker’s urine returned to normal. This is important because it shows Uña de Gato can help lessen the risk of developing cancers and other degenerative diseases.

Chuchuhuasi has a long history of use for aching muscles and joints, and for back pain. Chuchuhuasi means “trembling back.” It soothes aching muscles by helping them relax. The leaves of the Chuchuhuasi Tree are also used by indigenous people as a general tonic, for adrenal support, and to balance and regulate menstrual periods. Chuchuhuasi is used to relieve symptoms associated with rheumatoid arthritis. As a popular jungle remedy, it is useful as a muscle relaxant and is effective in breaking up and dispersing lactic acid. Some believe it enhances virility. It is recognized as a general reconstituent, and is supportive to adrenal function.

Tahuari – It helps to increase red blood cell production and helps respiratory disorders, ulcers, candida excess, and athlete’s foot. Tahuari can fortify the blood, helps to dissolve phlegm and is an anti-fungal. Research in both the United States and South America shows that pau d’arco has ingredients found to be effective against some forms of cancer and parasites. It helps lower blood sugar levels and promotes digestion. Lapachol, from pau d’arco, was recently listed by Purdue University as among the most important anti-tumor agents from plants.

Stevia has been used by South American Indians as a sweetening agent. It is helpful for weight loss programs because it can satisfy sugar cravings and is low in calories. It is supportive to the pancreas and has been used in treatment of diabetes, hypertension and infections.

ZAMU – CLEAR YOUR MIND BRIGHTEN YOUR DAY

August 28th, 2009 admin No comments

FEEL THE SYNERGY AND LIFE FORCE OF THE RAINFOREST AS YOU ENJOY ZAMU™, A REFRESHING, ORGANIC, ALL RAINFOREST BLEND.

Now, for the first time, the organic camu camu berry and select organic Rainforest botanicals have been brought together in an organically certified blend specifically formulated to promote a natural state of well-being.*

The secret behind Zamu™ is the synergy of all Rainforest ingredients featuring camu camu – the exciting Amazon ‘feel good’ fruit. Sustainably harvested in the Rainforest, the camu camu berry and other ingredients in Zamu™ are scientifically recognized for their beneficial properties.

ZAMU™ HARNESSES THE LIFE FORCE & SYNERGY OF THE RAINFOREST

zamu-header

Refreshing ZAMU™ delivers a uniquely balanced chemistry of naturally occurring nutrients found in organic camu camu, organic açai, organic cacao, organic pineapple, organic mango, organic cinnamon and sangre de drago – pure, Rainforest ingredients at their finest.

Camu camu fruit is nature’s most concentrated source of immune-boosting vitamin C, a proven free-radical scavenger. Our camu camu trees grow on the nutrient rich soil of the Amazon flood plains, packing the fruit with a rich, balanced profile of unique, vital nutrients not available from any other source. In addition to its superior antioxidant nature, the benefits include:

  • Emotional Stability and Mood Enhancement *
  • Anti-Aging and Cardiovascular Health *
  • Nutrition for Healthy Skin, Hair and Nails *

CAMU CAMU – THE EXCITING AMAZON ‘FEEL GOOD’ FRUIT

With every delicious sip of ZAMU™ you are flooding your body with life-enhancing nutrients that support a positive life experience.

CAMU CAMU THRIVES IN LUSH RAINFOREST SOIL ENRICHED BY THE FLOODWATERS OF THE AMAZON BASIN

Our camu camu trees are grown in the floodplains of the Amazon, where they are covered with floodwaters four months out of the year. As the water recedes, the soil and nutrient matter (bio-mass) from the entire Rainforest is redeposited. This ensures the richest nutrient soil and allows the trees access to a natural density of minerals, amino acids and enzymes unique to this micro-environment. This is why camu camu is packed with a rich, balanced profile of life force and vital nutrients not available from any other source.
THE BENEFITS OF CAMU CAMU: ANTI-AGING, CARDIOVOVASCULAR HEALTH AND EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING
Camu camu contains the most concentrated source of naturally occurring vitamin C in the world. Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant preventing the premature oxidation (aging) of cells. It has been proven to support a strong immune system and cardiovascular health. Further research shows that vitamin C is involved in maintaining proper levels of serotonin in the brain. Serotonin is a mood-balancing chemical in the brain that is associated with a sense of well-being and happiness.
NUTRITION FOR HEALTHY SKIN, HAIR AND NAILS
Free radicals attack healthy cells resulting in premature aging. The antioxidant nature of camu camu fights these free radicals and protects cells, including fibroblast cells. Fibroblast cells are necessary to build collagen and elastin, both of which are essential in keeping skin youthful and vibrant.

Additionally, other camu camu nutrients such as beta carotene, riboflavin and niacin, assist in optimizing healthy skin, hair and nails. As an added bonus, limonene, another compound in camu camu, has been shown to reduce appetite and aid in weight loss.

ZAMU™ IS ALL RAINFOREST
Imagine a tropical paradise … a dynamic ecosystem with abundant rainfall, intense sunlight and over 215,000 flourishing tropical plants growing in the richest soil on earth. Imagine a place that produces enough oxygen to be called “the lungs of our planet,” and enough medicinal herbs to provide a living pharmacy to the entire world.

Often called the “greatest celebration of life on earth,” the Amazon Rainforest is home to more species of plants and animals than any other place on the planet. It’s a place where thriving plants produce a natural density of the world’s most unique nutrition.

ZAMU™ IS CERTIFIED ORGANIC
Most commercially grown fruits have been sprayed with insecticides, pesticides and other harmful chemicals. These chemicals may be toxic to the cells in your body with long-term exposure. That’s why millions of people are turning toward organic foods for themselves and their families.

Zamu™ is certified organic by the United States Department of Agriculture.

WHY WE NEED TO SAVE AMAZON RAINFOREST

August 11th, 2009 admin No comments

RAINFOREST FACTS

Rainforests are home to more species of plants and animals than all the Earth’s other ecosystems combined. At least 3000 fruits are found in the rainforest; of these only 200 are now in use in the Western World. The Indians of the rainforest use over 2,000. 25% of Western pharmaceuticals are derived from rainforest ingredients, less than 1% of these tropical trees and plants have been tested by scientists.

Tropical forests have given humanity chemicals to treat or cure inflammation, rheumatism, diabetes, muscle tension, surgical complications, malaria, heart conditions, skin diseases, arthritis, glaucoma, and hundreds of other maladies.

The U.S. National Cancer Institute has identified 3000 plants that are active against cancer cells. 70% of these plants are in the rainforest. The Amazon Rainforest has been described as the “Lungs of our Planet” because it provides the essential environmental world service of continuously recycling carbon dioxide into oxygen. 80% of all the earth’s surface vegetation found in the rainforests. 50% of all the oxygen you breathe comes from the rainforests. Of the estimated original 4 billion acres of rainforest, only about 2.7 billion remain.

rainforest-waterfall-wp

We are losing our rainforest at the average rate of: 75 acres every minute; 108,000 a day; over 39 million acres per year. Many species of plants and animals are disappearing from the rainforests before they can be catalogued and studied. If deforestation continues at current rates, scientists estimate nearly 80 to 90 percent of tropical rainforest ecosystems will be destroyed by the year 2020.

RAINFOREST GOOD NEWS FACTS

The latest statistics show that rainforest land converted to cattle operations yields the land owner $60 per acre per year and if timber is harvested, the land is worth $400 per acre per year. However, if these renewable and sustainable resources are harvested, the land will yield the land owner $2,400 per acre per year. By purchasing renewable and sustainable rainforest products and resources with sustainable harvesting of these resources utilizing local communities and native tribes of the rainforests, YOU can be part of the solution. The rainforests of the world and it’s people can be saved !

The Amazon Herb Company partners with 14 Rainforest communities to ecologically and sustainably harvest medicinal plants. These communities are the foundation of our project. This hands-on work at the village level has already helped preserve over 300,00 acres of land and given the Indigenous people hope and a new vision of the future.

AMAZON HERB COMPANY’S ADDITIONAL COMMITMENT

The Amazon Herb Company invests a full 10% of its net profits to fund other areas of Rainforest preservation and education including:

Amazon Herb Reserva Natural A private natural botanical reserve in the heart of the Peruvian Rainforest complete with a medicine trail. Here many of the herbs used in the Amazon Herb formulas can be seen growing in their natural habitat.

Graviola – Natural Cancer Killer

August 4th, 2009 admin No comments

Billion-dollar Drug Company Nearly Squashes Astounding Research on Natural Cancer Killer

Colon and breast cancer conquered with miracle tree from the Amazon found to be 10,000 times stronger than chemotherapy.

Since our inception in 1996, Health Sciences Institute has scoured the world to find cutting-edge treatments few people have access to or have even heard about. And sometimes, what we uncover startles even the medical mavericks on our board.

Two months ago, we learned about an astounding cancer-fighting tree from the Amazon that has literally sent shock waves through the HSI network.

graviola

Today, the future of cancer treatment and the chances of survival look more promising than ever. There’s a healing tree that grows deep within the Amazon rain forest in South America that could literally change how you, your doctor, and possibly the rest of the world think about curing cancer. With extracts from this powerful tree, it may now be possible to… conquer cancer safely and effectively with an all-natural therapy that doesn’t cause extreme nausea, weight loss, and hair loss protect your immune system and evade deadly infections feel strong and healthy throughout the course of treatment boost your energy and improve your outlook on life.

Through a series of confidential communications involving a researcher from one of America’s largest pharmaceutical companies, this ancient tree’s anticancerous properties have recently come to light. Although not yet tested in human trials, the tree has been studied in more than 20 laboratory tests since the 1970s, where it’s been shown to: Effectively target and kill malignant cells in 12 different types of cancer, including colon, breast, prostate, lung, and pancreatic cancer; be 10,000 times stronger in killing colon cancer cells than Adriamycin, a commonly used chemotherapeutic drug ; selectively hunt down and kill cancer cells without harming healthy cells, unlike chemotherapy.

So why isn’t every health publication extolling the benefits of this treatment? Why hasn’t it been made widely available throughout the natural-medicine community? And, if it’s only half as promising as it appears to be, why isn’t every oncologist at every major hospital insisting on using it on all his patients? Especially when you consider that since the early 1990s, extensive independent research–including research by one of today’s leading drug companies and by the National Cancer Institute–confirms that the tree’s chemical extracts attack and destroy cancer cells with lethal precision. Graviola is 10,000 times stronger in killing colon cancer than Adriamycin, a commonly used chemotherapeutic drug.

The answer to these difficult questions can only be explained by recounting a disturbing story we recently uncovered. More than anything else we’ve reported on this year, the story of this Amazon cancer treatment reinforces the need for groups like HSI and illustrates how easily our options for medical treatment are controlled by money and power. News of this amazing tree was nearly lost forever.

A confidential source, whose account we’ve been able to independently confirm, revealed that a billion-dollar drug company in the United States tried for nearly seven years to synthesize two of the tree’s most powerful anticancerous chemicals. In the early 1990s, behind lock and key, this well-known drug giant began searching for a cure for cancer–while preciously guarding their opportunity to patent it and, therefore, profit from it.

Research focused on a legendary healing tree called Graviola. Parts of the tree–including the bark, leaves, roots, fruit, and fruit seeds–had been used for centuries by medicine men and native Indians in South America to treat heart disease, asthma, liver problems, and arthritis. Going on little documented scientific evidence, the company poured money and resources into testing Graviola’s anticancerous properties–and they were shocked by the results. Graviola was a cancer-killing dynamo. But that’s where the story of Graviola nearly ended.

The pharmaceutical company had a big problem. They’d spent years trying to isolate and create man-made duplicates of two of the tree’s most powerful chemicals. But they’d hit a brick wall. They couldn’t replicate the original. And they couldn’t sell the tree extract itself profitably–because federal law mandates that natural substances can’t be patented. That meant the company couldn’t protect its profits on the project it had poured millions of dollars and nearly seven years of research into. As the dream of big profits evaporated, testing on Graviola came to a screeching halt.

After seven frustrating years and without the promise of lucrative sales, the company shelved the project and refused to publish its findings in an independent journal. But one responsible researcher struggled with the decision. While understanding the company’s goal of profits, he couldn’t accept the decision to hide this unique cancer killer from the world. Following his conscience and risking his career, he contacted a company dedicated to harvesting medical plants from the Amazon Rainforest and blew the whistle. They discovered that several other teams in the United States (in addition to that of the drug company) had been testing Graviola in vitro (in test tubes). The results supported the drug company’s secret findings; Graviola had been shown to kill cancer cells.

Graviola hunts down and destroys prostate, lung, breast, colon, and pancreatic cancers… leaving healthy cells alone. Since November, we’ve been looking closely into the research to date on Graviola. It appears one of the first scientific references to it in the United States was by the National Cancer Institute (NCI). In 1976, the NCI included Graviola in a plant-screening program that showed its leaves and stems were effective in attacking and destroying malignant cells. But the results were part of an internal NCI report and were, for some reason, never released to the public. Since 1976, there have been several promising cancer studies on Graviola. However, the tree’s extracts have yet to be tested on cancer patients. No double-blind clinical trials exist, and clinical trials are typically the benchmark mainstream doctors and journals use to judge a treatment’s value. Nevertheless, Graviola has been shown to kill cancer cells in vitro in at least 20 laboratory tests that our research has uncovered.

The most recent study, conducted at Catholic University of South Korea earlier this year.

1. Revealed that two chemicals extracted from Graviola seeds showed “selective cytotoxicity comparable with Adriamycin” for breast and colon cancer cells. The chemicals targeted and killed malignant breast and colon cells in a test tube–comparable to the commonly used chemotherapy drug Adriamycin.

2. Another study, published in the Journal of Natural Products, showed that Graviola is not only comparable to Adriamycin–but dramatically outperforms it in laboratory tests. Results showed that one chemical found in Graviola selectively killed colon cancer cells at “10,000 times the potency of Adriamycin.”

3 Graviola selectively targets cancer cells leaving healthy cells untouched. Chemotherapy indiscriminately seeks and destroys all actively reproducing cells – even normal, healthy ones.

Other promising and ongoing research at Purdue University is supported by a grant from the National Cancer Institute. Purdue researchers recently found that leaves from the Graviola tree killed cancer cells “among six human-cell lines” and were especially effective against prostate and pancreatic cancer cells.

4 In a separate study, Purdue researchers showed that extracts from the Graviola leaves are extremely effective in isolating and killing lung cancer cells.

5. Perhaps the most significant result of the study cited above from the Catholic University of South Korea, and of each of the others we’ve found, is that Graviola was shown to selectively target the enemy–leaving all healthy, normal cells untouched. By comparison, chemotherapy indiscriminately seeks and destroys all actively reproducing cells–even normal hair and stomach cells. This is what causes such often-devastating side effects as hair loss and severe nausea. In this respect, Graviola looks to be a promising alternative or supplement to mainstream treatments. Seven years of silence broken.

We are continuing to work conducting ongoing research on Graviola. As more scientific and anecdotal evidence comes to light, you’ll be among the first to hear about it. However, after seven years of silence and hidden research, we felt it irresponsible not to bring this to you now.

5. J. Nat Prod 58(6):902-908, 1995

Graviola fights more than cancer:

While the research on Graviola has focused on its cancer-fighting effect,the plant has been used for centuries by medicine men in South America totreat an astonishing number of ailments, including:

  • hypertension
  • ringworm
  • influenza
  • scurvy
  • rashes
  • malaria
  • neuralgia
  • dysentery
  • arthritis
  • palpitations
  • rheumatism
  • nervousness
  • high blood pressure
  • insomnia
  • diarrhea
  • fever
  • nausea
  • boils
  • dyspepsia
  • muscle spasms
  • ulcer

Despite the mounting collection of laboratory tests and anecdotal reports about this cancer-fighting dynamo, Graviola may always remain an underground therapy! Graviola has yet to be clinically tested on animals or humans. And because Graviola is a natural product, it can’t be patented. Without the promise of exclusive sales and high profitability, it will likely never again draw the attention of a major drug company or research lab. So we may never see a double-blind clinical study on the tree that’s reported to help defeat cancer. But there’s no doubt about it–the early laboratory tests and anecdotal reports about Graviola are very exciting. And if you’ve been diagnosed with cancer, you and your doctor should look at all the available treatment options. Graviola may just provide the help you’ve been looking for that could make all the difference in beating cancer.

Chuchuhuasi has a long history of use for aching muscles and joints, and for back pain. Chuchuhuasi means “trembling back.” It soothes aching muscles by helping them relax. The leaves of the Chuchuhuasi Tree are also used by indigenous people as a general tonic, for adrenal support, and to balance and regulate menstrual periods. Chuchuhuasi is used to relieve symptoms associated with rheumatoid arthritis. As a popular jungle remedy, it is useful as a muscle relaxant and is effective in breaking up and dispersing lactic acid. Some believe it enhances virility. It is recognized as a general reconstituent, and is supportive to adrenal function.

TREASURE HUNTER FINDS RAINFOREST GOLD

John Easterling has always had a fascination with treasure hunting.

After graduating from the University of North Carolina with a degree in environmental science, he sold his car and bought a ticket to Ecuador to look for lost cities of gold. When he didn’t find any, he began to buy local handicraft items and developed a business around selling the native wares.

The promise of gem stones lured him to Brazil, then to Peru, where he started exploring the Amazon Rainforest, trading with the Shipibo Indians and other tribes for their ceramics, monkey bones and artifacts. Then, in 1982, he got sick.

“I had hepatitis and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever before I went to Peru, which left me physically compromised,” says Easterling, who caught a low-grade jungle fever. “The indigenous community started making these teas and sharing them with me. I had no expectations, but after three or four days, I felt a lot better. After a few weeks, I felt better than I ever had in my life.”

Easterling took some of the Gato vine (Uncaria Tomentosa) and Chanca Piedra shrub (Phyllanthus Niruri) with him, making teas for himself over the next couple of years. He became convinced that the medicinal healing properties of plants were the real treasure of the Rainforest, and started the Amazon Herb Company.

“The Indians starting telling me fascinating stories about healing,” Easterling says. “No one from the outside had been interested in this before. There were plants in different areas used for different illnesses. I began working with different practitioners to formulate our products.”

Established in 1990, the company developed nutritional supplements and skin care products, and works to preserve the Rainforest. Easterling envisions using eco-commerce for Rainforest sustainability, promoting health, and of course, making money for himself. While the efficacy of his products may be different for each person, Easterling’s belief in the power of the Rainforest botanicals makes sense to me.

“Everything has an energy and vibration,” Easterling says. “The resonance and frequency of what we put in our bodies is so important. A plant in the middle of Iowa sees only plants like itself and is sprayed with chemicals and toxins. When you eat that corn, you’re taking in the stress of the life of that corn plant.

“The information ingrained in the Rainforest plants is about survival of the fittest, and living in a place of balance and harmony. I find that when I eat things from the Rainforest, I don’t need to eat as much. The plants there are sending messages to us about healing.”

While there is no U.S. Food and Drug Administration oversight of Rainforest products, the ingredients cited in products like Zamu — a nutritional drink that touts Camu Camu, a Rainforest fruit with high concentrations of Vitamin C — sound like they’d certainly offer health benefits to anyone.

It’s good that we’re paying more attention to what we put in our bodies. For example, the popularity of acai berries — touted for their weight loss benefits — is understandable because there’s no doubt that berries and other fruits are a key part of any healthy diet promoting weight loss. Whether there’s anything special about acai’s ability to help you lose those pounds, though, is unproven.

As more research is done on the medicinal properties of Rainforest plants, I have no doubt that new drugs will emerge for many diseases. What’s important is recognizing that whatever we eat is only a part of how we treat our bodies every day. The mind, body and spirit are connected, and we must take care of the wholeness of who we are.

For Easterling, the hunt for cities of gold may have ended, but he looks forward to the discoveries ahead in the Rainforest. “The Amazon Rainforest produces 30 percent of the world’s oxygen, and is our planet’s greatest climate stabilizer,” he says. “Seventy percent of the world’s plants showing anti-cancer activity came from the Rainforest. From a global perspective, the real treasure is the Rainforest itself.”

Discover Zamu, a Gift from the Amazon

July 20th, 2009 admin 3 comments

If “an apple a day keeps the doctor away,” imagine what a blend of nature most giving super-fruits will do for your health and energy levels.

Ingredients of Zamu are the top super fruits from the Amazon Rainforest: Camu Camu, Acai, Cacao, Cinnamon and Sangre de Drago. Zamu offers remarkable source of vitamins and minerals as well as high levels of antioxidants and phytonutrients.

Camu-Camu berry

Camu-Camu berry has unusually high concentration of the Vitamin C and, as you may know, Vitamin C has many uses for preventing chronic diseases. Natural not synthetic Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that prevents damage to you body DNA cells caused by free radicals. Vitamin C also used to prevent common colds and the flu like influenza.

Camu-Camu berry has a highest concentration of Vitamin C among all the fruits on the planet. The Camu-Camu fruit provides 50 times more Vitamin C than orange, or about 2 grams of Vitamin C per 100 grams of berry.

The Camu-Camu fruit is 100 percent natural and has very powerful high-density nutrition. It has totally no negative side effects. In fact, if you’re interested in anti-aging, or you want to make sure you have optimal brain performance for the rest of your life, the Camu-Camu berry is one of the most essential nutritional supplements that you can use.

Acai berry

Acai Berries grow on an Amazon Palm Tree and have been prized for hundreds of years by Brazilian natives for their ability to provide a sense of strength, energy, and a high nutritional content.

Acai berries contain very high amounts of essential fatty acids and omegas (Linoleic Acid and Oleic Acid), proven to lower LDL and maintain HDL cholesterol levels. They also contain a remarkable concentration of antioxidants to help combat premature aging. The Acai berry is a dense source of a particular class of flavonoids called anthocyanins (red-blue phenols with powerful antioxidant properties).

An amazingly high concentration level of antioxidants in Acai berries contribute to combating premature aging. The proanthocyanidine contents in Acai berries provide 10 to 30 times the anthocyanins compared to the same volume of red wine (these are the purple-colored antioxidants).

Cacao

Cacao is derived from Theobroma Cacao beans, which literally means “Food of the Gods”. Cacao contains over 300 compounds including: protein, fat, carbohydrates, fiber, iron, zinc, copper, calcium and magnesium. Magnesium helps to build strong bones and is a muscle relaxant associated with feelings of calmness. Cacao is also high in sulfur, which helps form strong nails and hair.

In addition, cacao also contains the chemicals phenylethylamine (PEA) and anandamide. PEA is an adrenal-related chemical that we create naturally when we’re excited. It also plays a role in feeling focused and alert because it causes your pulse rate to quicken, resulting in a similar feeling to when we are excited or fall in love!

The reason why raw cacao is the best choice for healthy benefits is because raw cacao contains the very popular antioxidants (anti-aging guys) that make raw cacao a superfood.

Cinnamon

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has published several cinnamon studies on human beings. Findings report that about one half teaspoon a day results in an impressive improvement in blood sugar. Cinnamon works by enhancing the body’s ability to use the insulin it already produces, especially in muscle tissue.

Cinnamon has also demonstrated a highly beneficial impact on cholesterol. Specifically, it lowers the LDL, more commonly known as the “bad cholesterol.”

Across the board, cinnamon is known to ease intestinal cramps, relieve gas, promote movement of food through the digestive system and act as a muscle relaxant. It has obtained some popularity as a method to relieve both menstrual and night time leg cramps as well.

Another helpful property of cinnamon is its antibacterial effect. It is especially useful for fighting intestinal germs. Some people claim it can ward off mild food poisoning.

Sangre de Drago

Sangre de Drago reigns among the most legendary botanicals from the Amazon Rainforest. It is used widely in the Rainforest for its ability to assist skin regeneration and the health of body tissue. It is one of the strongest natural antioxidants known. The dried sap of the Sangre de Drago tree contains 90% proanthocyanidins (OPCs) (”Diterpenes from Croton lechleri” by Cai, et al., Phytochem 32, No. 3, 1993, pp 755-760), the same phyto-nutrient found at much lower concentrations in pycnogenol and grape-seed extract.

Key Benefits:

• Supports intestinal health
• Aids proper elimination
• Accelerates skin regeneration and healthy tissue growth
• High anti-oxidant activity

Mango

Mangoes are one of the best sources of betacarotene, quercetin and astragalin. These are powerful antioxidants that neutralise free radicals. Free radicals can damage cells and lead to heart disease, cancer, premature aging and degenerative diseases.

One small mango provides a quarter of your recommended daily allowance for vitamin C, nearly two thirds of your daily quota for vitamin A, good amounts of vitamin E and fibre. They also contain vitamin K, phosphorus and magnesium. Mangoes are particularly rich in potassium which can help reduce the risk of high blood pressure.

Mangoes also contain pectin, a soluble dietary fibre, which has been shown to lower blood cholesterol levels. Recently, scientists at The Institute for Food Research, discovered that a fragment released from pectin binds to, and inhibits galectin 3, a protein that plays a role in all stages of cancer progression. Other population studies, including the European Prospective Investigation of Cancer, have identified a strong link between eating lots of fibre and a lower risk of cancers of the gastrointestinal tract.

Pineapple

Pineapple is a remarkable fruit. We find it enjoyable because of its lush, sweet and exotic flavor, but it may be one of the most healthful foods available today.

Pineapple is high in manganese, a mineral that is critical to development of strong bones and connective tissue. A cup of fresh pineapple will give you nearly 75% of the recommended daily amount. It is particularly helpful to older adults, whose bones tend to become brittle with age.

Bromelain, a proteolytic enzyme, is the key to pineapple’s value. Proteolytic means “breaks down protein”, which is why pineapple is known to be a digestive aid. It helps the body digest proteins more efficiently.

Bromelain is also considered an effective anti-inflammatory. Regular ingestion of at least one half cup of fresh pineapple daily is purported to relieve painful joints common to osteoarthritis.
