Taoist Tonic Herbs

A traditional animal-based extract made exclusively from Sika deer antler tips, prepared in grain alcohol and water and used historically within classical Asian tonic practices. Product Description Changbai Deer Antler Drops by Dragon Herbs is a premium liquid extract made exclusively from Sika deer antler tips sourced from the Changbai Mountain region of Northeastern Asia. Deer antler has a long history of use in classical Asian tonic traditions, where it was incorporated into long-term wellness practices and valued as part of restorative dietary frameworks. What makes this product distinctive is the use of the antler tips only (the final 0.5–1 inch), which are traditionally regarded as the most prized portion of the antler. As antlers grow, the tip remains the actively growing section, while the lower portions gradually harden. Dragon Herbs uses only these carefully selected tips to produce a concentrated extract with a long-standing reputation in traditional use. The deer are humanely cared for, monitored for health, and the antler collection is performed with animal welfare practices in mind. Antlers naturally regrow during the same season. The extract is produced using water and grain alcohol (30% by volume), creating a convenient drop format that can be incorporated into a daily routine.

Coptis and Scute is an ancient Chinese formula. It contains the active ingredient, berberine. Berberine is bright yellow, and the formula is also known as the “two yellows.” All of the herbs have potent antimicrobial actions, not only due to the berberine, but as a result of dozens of other active constituents that promote healing. This formula relieves heat, reduces toxicity and fights a wide range of microbial invaders.Scute (Huang Qin), which is the root of Scutellaria baicalensis, is an important antimicrobial herb widely used in Chinese herbalism. Researchers in Scotland report that Baicalin, an extract of the Chinese herb Scutellaria Baicalensis (Huang Qin), restores the effectiveness of traditional antibiotics in countering a deadly type of antibiotic-resistant bacterial infection known as MRSA.   Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) infection is a toxic variant of a universally present skin bacteria that has developed resistance to nearly all antibiotics presently available. Once Staphylococcus Aureus infection becomes established inside the body, it causes tissue destruction and death, if not treated. Even though they are generally ineffective against bacterial infections, due to over-use and the rise of bacterial immunity, the antibiotics ampicillin, amoxycillin, benzylpenicillin, methicillin and cefotaxime can be used effectively to treat MRSA, when combined with Baicalin. MRSA has been of great concern as a potential untreatable epidemic if it becomes wide-spread, so this finding is extremely significant. Baicalin is one of the primary constituents of Scute, and has been shown in many other studies to have potent anti-bacterial and anti-viral properties. Scute has a long history of use in Traditional Oriental Medicine herbal formulas for clearing infections. It appears with other anti-bacterial and/or anti-viral herbs in a number of traditional and modern herbal formulas that treat infection , prevents respiratory tract congestion via mucous, neuro-protective, ulcer-preventative, and immune system balancing.   Here is the abstract of the study refered to above: Baicalin synergy with beta-lactam antibiotics against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and other beta-lactam-resistant strains of S. aureus. Liu IX, Durham DG, Richards RM. The School of Pharmacy, Faculty of Health and Social Care, Robert Gordon University, Schoolhill, Aberdeen, UK. Bacterial resistance to antibiotics is a serious global problem and includes strains of beta-lactam-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA). Novel antimicrobials and/or new approaches to combat the problem are urgently needed. The Chinese herb Huang Qin has been used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat a wide range of infectious diseases. In this study we have examined the antibacterial action of baicalin, a flavone isolated from the herb. When combined with 16 microg mL(-1) baicalin, minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of benzylpenicillin against MRSA and penicillin-resistant S. aureus were reduced from 125 and 250 microg mL(-1) to 4 and 16 microg mL(-1), respectively. This activity of baicalin was dose-dependent. Viable counts showed that the killing of MRSA and beta-lactam-resistant S. aureus cells by 10 to 50 microg mL(-1) ampicillin, amoxycillin, benzylpenicillin, methicillin and cefotaxime was potentiated by 25 microg mL(-1) baicalin. From the study it was concluded that baicalin has the potential to restore the effectiveness of beta-lactam antibiotics against MRSA and other strains of beta-lactam-resistant S. aureus. In view of its limited toxicity baicalin offers potential for the development of a valuable adjunct to beta-lactam treatments against otherwise resistant strains of microorganisms.   Description: Spray dried concentrated powder in capsules.   Ingredients: Coptis, Scute, Thellodendron Bark, Gardenia  Typical Usage: 3 Capsules 2 times per day or as directed by your health care practitioner.Each bottle contains 100 vegetarian capsules, 500 miligrams each

Dragon Herbs Schizandra Fruit eeTeeAnti-aging elixirSchizandra (Schisandra chinensis) is a small fruit that grows on vines in the remote pristine mountains in northern China (Changbai Mountain, Manchuria), Korea, Siberia, Russia and Scandinavia.This bright red fruit is a famous tonic historically used as a longevity herb and as a superior adaptogenic herb. Schizandra is one of the most important supertonic herbs and is widely used in Asia and more recently in the West. It is a wonderful adaptogenic herb historically consumed by Taoists and Chinese royalty, ultimately for similar reasons: to increase their "inner power" and to preserve their youth. It is one of the few herbs that contain all "three treasures" "Jing, Qi and Shen" in abundance. All Taoists throughout Chinese history have consumed Schizandra. Schizandra is considered to be a youth preserving and deeply empowering herb. It is called the "quintessence of Chinese tonic herbs."Dragon Herbs Schizandra is collected in the wild from the pristine forest of Changbai Mountain in Manchuria, hundreds of miles away from any source of pollution. The Schizandra naturally ripens in the old forest before being collected, fully ripe and at the height of flavor and efficacy. This is the best Schizandra in the world. Until now however, it has been an inconvenient herb to consume. In spite of the fact that Schizandra has a naturally wonderful, unique flavor it has only been sold in capsules and in combination with other herbs like Ginseng. Dragon Herbs FITT™ sticks have changed this. Now everyone can enjoy the amazing flavor, aroma and benefits of Schizandra, just as it tastes freshly picked from a wild mountain vine. Dragon Herbs Schizandra granules are quite unique. There is nothing like it on the market in America today. Schizandra is a superior tonic herb that has many significant health benefits. Schizandra is renowned as a youth preserving herb and is considered to be a superb beauty tonic. It has been used for centuries by Asian royalty to make the skin soft, moist and radiant. It is also considered to be a powerful tonic to the brain and mind, and is believed in China to improve memory and concentration. It has been demonstrated that human intellectual activity can be enhanced and work efficiency increased by consuming Schizandra. It is used in Scandinavian countries to improve mental and physical energy. Russian researchers have shown it to be a powerful adaptogenic agent, helping the body and mind cope with stress without harming the body. Schizandra is said to be an excellent sexual tonic when consumed regularly. It is reputed to help produce abundant sexual fluids, increase sexual endurance and to strengthen the whole body. It was used by female Chinese royalty for that purpose and has been a staple in the Taoist sexual formulations for both men and women for over 2,000 years. The fruit, which is the part used, is rich in very potent antioxidant compounds. These antioxidants protect and detoxify the body. The most studied is Schisandrin B which has many biologically important health benefits. It is highly protective to the liver, and also helps protect the heart, brain and kidneys. Schizandrin B, has significant anti-inflammatory action. Inflammation is now believed to be a central cause of aging. It also helps protect the thymus gland. As a liver tonic, Schizandra is extremely effective at purifying the blood andhelping to eliminate toxins from the body without causing any side effects. Schizandra contains dozens of lignins that help remove toxins from the liver and then from the body. It aids in both phase I and phase II toxin removal from the body, and is thus a quintessential body purifying agent because it rids the body of dangerous toxins without causing any side effects. Schizandra is renowned as a beauty tonic. It has been used for centuries to make the skin soft, moist and radiant, and to slow down aging of the skin. For this reason, it was served for generations as the main ingredient in a tonic tea at the Qing Dynasty Imperial  Palace. Schizandra protects against UVB induced skin damage. Taoists use Schizandra as a spiritual cleansing and tonifying herb. Many masters recommend consuming freshly collected, dried raw Schizandra for 100 days as a way to change the energy in the organs and meridians. With FITT™, this is easy. The fresh Schizandra fruit has been extracted without cooking. Consuming one stick a day for 100 days can have a life changing effect. Most botanicals are woody and fibrous. The woody fiber (cell walls) generally makes most botanicals difficult to digest. Thousands of years ago, humans discovered that cooking, making teas, decoctionsand soups with water and/or alcohol improved the potency and efficacy of the foods, beverages, tonics and medicines they consumed.When a botanical is boiled in water or extracted in alcohol or other solvent, the constituents of the botanical are released from the fiber that contains them and are dissolved into the liquid medium. The resulting "tea" or paste is highly assimilable. Also, it is much easier to consume because the material has been "reduced" to a much smaller volume and yet the potency is higher. Without the extraction, the body would have to do a digestive "extraction" of the materials bound to the fiber, adding much stress to our GI tract. Since we do not have the digestive tract of a ruminate, this "extraction" method is notvery effective, nor is it efficient.Of course, the technology back then was primitive, relying on simple stove boiling to break down cell walls. Amazingly, extraction technology has not changed much even during the industrial-scientific era - it is just performed on a much larger scale. We still rely on the application of heat to a tank of solvents such as water or alcohol for several hours until the constituents of the raw herbs have been released into the hot solvents. However, the traditional heated extraction has its downsides besides its benefits.*It is not suitable for extracting heat sensitive substances such as protein, amino acids, essential oils and enzymes.*Starch and saccharides of low molecular weight can gelatinize and become cohesive under heat, preventing the effective release and extraction of active ingredients.*Substances with no or few pharmacological effects can be released simultaneously.*The heated process accelerates the oxidation process.*It can result in polymerization and decomposition of active constituents.FITT, the technology of the next generationNow for the first time, a cutting edge extraction technology is available for commercial extraction of botanicals. Dragon Herbs' new Fingerprint Identical Transfer Technology™ (FITT™) is a patented green extraction technology of the 21st century. It is the most advanced commercial extraction technology in the world. How does the FITT™ process work?FITT™ is a proprietary process that utilizes mechanical forces to break the raw materials down to micron level. The materials are "shaken" loose at tremendous speed, resulting in instantaneousextraction of both water-soluble and alcohol-soluble components from the raw material into the solvent. The entire process is performed at a low to moderate temperature that never exceeds 40°C (104° F), thus eliminating the drawbacks of a heated extraction.Schizandra ee Tee: Tonifies all 3 Treasures Nurtures all 5 Elements Enters all 12 Meridians Package contains: 30 Stick Packets, 2g each

The superior quality and therapeutic efficacy have made it one of our best selling products since its release half a decade ago. Yet despite its elevated status, we saw that there were still some facets of this medicine that could be tweaked and improved upon... Reishi Paragon has now transcended itself - it is our strongest and richest Reishi extract ever.Regenerative Cultivation MethodsFirstly we have evolved the cultivation process - initially Reishi Paragon was created from organic, wood-grown fruiting bodies which underwent a multi-step dual-extraction process to yield the resulting high potency extract powder. However, the mushrooms are now wild-simulated - from the finest quality wild strains and cultivated according to Di Tao principles.'Di Tao’ literally means ‘authentic method’ or ‘from the source’. Di Tao cannot be imitated, simply because it is unique to its geographical location, grown in conditions that simulate its native, wild environment. This means cultivating the mushrooms in the same pristine mountain forests that wild Reishi grows in. This way, the fungi are grown on the same wood from the same forest, immersed in exactly the same soil, the same symbiotic micro-organisms are present, the weather is the same, the same water irrigates the cultivated mushrooms as it does the wild specimens etc.The fruiting bodies are grown on sections of tree trunk from species of fir trees that Reishi grows on in the wild. The trees should be at least three decades old before harvesting for Reishi cultivation, and they must have come from mountain elevations of at least 1500 meters. The logs should be approximately 30cm in diameter, inoculated with wild Reishi spawn and then immersed within humus-rich soil. This way the mushroom mycelium will have an abundance of nutrients to feed upon, and produce larger, therapeutically more potent fruiting bodies. As the mushrooms mature and their medicinal potency is climaxing they are harvested, and the finest quality fruiting bodies are selected to sporulate the subsequent generation. Crop rotation is also important – Reishi should not be grown in the same place for more than two years, after which point the area needs to be naturally replenished with nutritious mulch and allowed to recover. In Di Tao cultivation there a number of growing locations so that when one of them is allowed to rest and regenerate, it can do so for many years before hosting another generation of Reishi cultivation. Not only does this ensure the richest possible growing environment, but it also promotes local biodiversity – the whole process should not take more from the land than it gives back.Dual-ExtractionOnce the mature fruiting body has been harvested it is washed to clear any residual impurities, then dried, and finally pulverised into a fine grain powder. This creates maximum surface area, making the extraction process exponentially more effective. The mushroom powder is then added to purified water - the hot water decoction is completed inside a pressurised container, simmering below 100°c. The pressurised environment is necessary in order to inhibit the denaturing of the water-soluble compounds. Once completed, the water extract is filtered from the powder and more water added for another decoction. In total, this process is carried out three separate times and finally combined. Next, with the filtrate from the hot water extraction removed, the powder is macerated in ethanol and again, this process is repeated three times before completion. Once all alcohol-soluble compounds have been captured by the ethanol, the filtrate is once again separated from the mushroom material. The liquids (water and ethanol) are both precipitated from the extracts so that all of the nutrients and beneficial compounds are contained within the rich, concentrated solid substance that remains, with no water or alcohol residue whatsoever. Next, this concentrate is transformed into a very fine, dry powder, which requires spray-freeze-drying. Low temperature drying is ideal because it preserves the structural integrity and potency of the extract. Once totally dry, the extract is again filtered through a very fine mesh sieve. Before the extract is sealed in airtight containers ready for sale, a sample should be taken for testing; testing firstly to ensure there are no contaminants, and secondly for the presence of the biologically active compounds that should have been captured via the extraction procedures.Bio-active CompoundsTo verify the medicinal potency, Reishi Paragon has been third party lab tested for both of the primary groups of therapeutic compounds in this fungus - beta-D-glucans & triterpenoids. Currently more than 100 fungal polysaccharides have been isolated from the fruiting body, many of which are beta-D-glucans. These constituents are significantly responsible for the beneficial influence this mushroom has on immune cells such as macrophages, lymphocytes and cytokines.Likewise, more than 130 different triterpenoid compounds have been discovered within Reishi fruiting bodies, spores and mycelia, with over 140 triterpene subtypes as well, which include a large assortment of unique Ganoderic acids. These triterpenes have shown remarkable therapeutic properties; antiviral, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-allergy, cytotoxic towards malignant cells, hepato-protective and regulatory towards many cardiovascular functions.Beta-D-glucans are captured via the hot water extraction phase, while triterpenes are soluble in ethanol and are collected during that second phase of the extraction. This is why multi-step dual-extraction is necessary - to harvest everything of medicinal value from the fruiting body. This is also why beta-D-glucans and triterpenes cannot both be very high in a single extract, because they are the result of separate extractions. Most products will advertise high percentages of polysaccharides, but this simply means the extract is predominantly (or solely) a hot water extract, containing little (or no) triterpenes.Previously, Reishi Paragon contained about 30% beta-D-glucans but only 5% triterpenes. While this was already an exceptional product, we have worked at narrowing that divide so that the end result reflects the finest specimens of wild Reishi, with a naturally strong triterpene content. The latest batch of Reishi Paragon contains 10.56% beta-D-glucans and a whopping 8.7% triterpenes! This is our most potent and well balanced Reishi extract yet! Take a look at the authorised 'Supplement Facts' label for this product in the image gallery at the top of this page.Finally, this extract is bottled in Miron Violet Glass – the best quality glass in the world – in order to protect and preserve the integrity of this outstanding medicine from ultraviolet degradation.Understanding Reishi SupplementsMost mushroom extracts are either hot water extracts only and contain no triterpenes at all, or they are dual-extracts (hot water & ethanol) but the dual-extraction is performed in a single step (water & ethanol combined). This produces an impure, low potency dual-extract that is low in the bio-active markers we are looking for.In regards to Reishi, a thorough multi-step extraction of high quality fruiting bodies should yield an end product that is rich in bioactive markers such as Reishi-specific beta-glucans 1>3 and 1>6 as well as triterpenes (ganoderic acids, lucidenic acids etc). There are hundreds of medicinally active compounds in Reishi, but these are some of the bioactive constituents that are naturally present in the highest quantities, are the most researched and are fundamentally involved in the health benefits we expect from a Reishi supplement. Therefore it is important that we can test for these as markers for a high quality Reishi extract.Beneficial effects are of course the result of an interdependent relationship between numerous compounds - some of which are in minute quantities - but if a Reishi product contains a negligible amount of beta-glucans & triterpenes then we cannot expect it to be medicinally viable.The overwhelming majority of products will not specify the exact presence of these compounds, simply because they are not present in any significant quantity, if at all. A high percentage of polysaccharides is not a reliable marker either as many producers are using dextrin, maltodextrin or corn starch as additives to increase the overall percentage of polysaccharides, even though they are not from Reishi and contain no medicinal value.Therefore, analysing for specific beta-glucans gives us a clear picture of just how potent a Reishi supplement is, and the percentage of triterpenes will show us that a dual-extraction has indeed taken place and many important sterols & triterpenoids are present. The higher the percentages will indicate that a multi-step extraction process been performed and the product is optimally potent, as well as free from therapeutically useless fillers & additives.Reishi Paragon exemplifies the true power of Reishi mushroom because it has been created for the sole purpose of delivering reliable quality & potency, without cutting any corners whatsoever.Nyishar products and the claims made about them on or through this site have not been evaluated by the MHRA or United States Food and DrugAdministration and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease.

Contains: 60g of pure extract powder Serving Size: 1g (half a teaspoon) Serving Per Container: 120 Directions: Add hot water to create an instant tea, or add to smoothies, desserts or meals.     'Imperial Cordyceps Ultimate Potency' is our newest incarnation of the Cordyceps fungus, standing firmly on the shoulders of the original Imperial Cordyceps product. Our initial product has already established itself as one of the finest quality Cordyceps supplements available, but this upgraded iteration is substantially stronger with five times more cordycepin (the primary active nucleoside) than the original Imperial Cordyceps. This is an industry first - over 5% cordycepin is the highest potency ever in a commercially available product.   Among the numerous therapeutic compounds in this fungus, cordycepin is the primary active compound that is directly responsible for the overwhelming majority of benefits. It also possesses an exceptional safety rating - high doses can be consumed with no significant side effects. This is of particular importance when treating serious illness and recovering from injury, or for people who are placing their bodies and minds under a lot of stress, such as endurance athletes and those in combat sports, surgeons and paramedics, or firefighters and military personnel.   Typically, the highest concentration of cordycepin in even the strongest products is between 1% and 1.5%, just like in the original Imperial Cordyceps. This quantity already has notable pharmacological activity and can be especially useful in increasing ATP production and cellular energy metabolism, for enhancing immune function and for promoting stronger mental and physical performance. However, with such a great safety profile, we felt that it was necessary to create an even more potent extract that was able to deliver under the most extreme conditions.   Imperial Cordyceps Ultimate Potency is a blend of organically cultivated C. militaris fruiting bodies and the liquid-fermented mycelium of C. sinensis, both hot water extracted in a multi-step process that captures absolutely everything of medicinal value. As well as over 5% cordycepin, this product also contains 15% beta-glucans and 0.5% adenosine, amongst other important bio-actives. As there is such a significant, bioavailable presence of cordycepin in this product, let’s take a quick overview of its scientifically proven benefits:   Firstly, the energy enhancing properties of Cordyceps are its most well known benefit, and this effect is almost entirely the result of cordycepin. This is a part of Cordyceps that is routinely misunderstood though, because people commonly believe that Coreyceps causes an increase in energy similarly to the way that caffeine or some other stimulant does, which is not true at all. What actually happens, is that Cordyceps increases our cellular capacity to generate energy, so we are better able to produce more energy for a lot longer. So in an attempt to better understand this process, let’s take a quick overview of exactly how cordycepin affects our energy output: every single cell in the body is powered by a nucleoside called adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The powerhouses of every cell - the mitochondria - import nutrients (carbohydrates & fats), and then through a process known as oxidative phosphorylation, these nutrients are combusted to release energy.   Electrons that are obtained from these metabolized nutrients are passed through a series of protein complexes embedded with the membrane of the mitochondria, which produces hydrogen ions that are utilized by an enzyme called ATP synthase. This intracellular process is exactly how nutrients are transformed into ATP, which is the energy currency of every single cell.   So how does Cordyceps play into all of this? Well, cordycepin directly activates an enzyme on the body called AMPK, which is responsible for regulating energy homeostasis. As the AMPK enzyme becomes increasingly activated from cordycepin, it up regulates a genetic protein called PGC-1a - the master transcription factor for mitochondrial biogenesis… but what does this mean exactly?   Well, increased activation of AMPK enzymes causes a corresponding increase in the activity of the PGC-1a protein, which ultimately causes A LOT more mitochondria to be created within the cells. In short, this means that each cell possesses a much higher capacity to generate ATP, which means more energy production. This enhanced metabolism of cellular energy also clears lactate buildup from within the bloodstream after exercise, which means faster recovery and reduced fatigue. This entire sequence of metabolic events is robustly supported by the presence of cordycepin.   This is obviously incredible news from an athletic standpoint - more energy output, more stamina and quicker recovery rate. However, this enhanced energy metabolism is useful for absolutely everyone in terms of cognitive performance (concentration and memory) and immune function etc. Mitochondria production tends to decline significantly as we age towards and beyond mid-life, so cordycepin can help to mitigate many problems associated with age-related deterioration.   Cordycepin has a substantial regulatory effect on pro-inflammatory pathways in the body too (NF-kB, TNF-a, iNOS, inflammasomes, IL-1B etc). It also stimulates the activity of endogenous antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase. The combination of inflammation and antioxidant management has proven cordycepin as a valuable agent in reducing inflammation within the central nervous system, leading to it being studied as a potential treatment for neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, traumatic brain injury and depression.   Another way in which cordycepin can help to treat neurodegenerative diseases is the influence it has on various signaling pathways in the body including MAPK, mTOR and PI3K/Akt amongst others. This activity also enables cordycepin to positively affect other pathologies that are driven by these signaling pathways including certain types of cancer. Cordycepin possesses tumor inhibiting properties as well as supporting the destruction of malignant cells via the process of apoptosis (programmed cell death). Cordycepin has also shown potential in disrupting stem cell activity in the development of leukemia.   Likewise, by regulating these same signaling pathways cordycepin can also offer a favorable impact on diabetes mellitus, because it can reduce the levels of elevated blood glucose and increase the metabolism of fats within the body. The increase of ATP that is caused by cordycepin can improve the storage and utilization of glycogen within the liver too.   Cordycepin has both anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties in the treatment of osteoarthritis. In vivo studies have also proven that cordycepin can help to regulate inflammation of the internal organs - most notably the liver, kidneys, lungs and the brain.   Multiple studies have highlighted an anti-asthmatic effect from cordycepin, as it can inhibit pulmonary inflammation, and again, the increase of ATP can significantly increase oxygen absorption and utilization, which produces a two-pronged mechanism in the treatment of asthma and bronchitis.   Cordycepin is also studied for its fertility properties, improving the production of reproductive fluids and supporting a healthy libido.   ----- Nyishar products and the claims made about them on or through this site have not been evaluated by the MHRA or United States Food and Drug Administration and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease.
