Organic Holy Basil Leaf
Also known as “Tulsi”, this sacred Ayurvedic herb has been called “The Elixir of Life” and “Mother Medicine of Nature”. Holy basil is a potent adaptogen and powerful prophylactic (protective) herb. Among its many researched benefits are immune support, stress reduction, digestive support, cholesterol modulation, blood sugar balance, and liver protection.
Organic Astragalus Root
Astragalus is a safe but powerful herb that’s been widely used for thousands of years in Traditional Chinese Medicine. It’s favored as both a general health tonic and a treatment for many conditions, including diarrhea, fatigue, upper respiratory infections, heart disease, hepatitis, fibromyalgia, and as an adjunctive therapy for cancer.
Organic Ginger Root
Long used as a digestive remedy, ginger’s detoxifying abilities are tied to stimulating digestion and blood flow. Active components within the root provide anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and liver-protective benefits. Experimental studies have shown that ginger’s compounds exert anticancer activities against gastrointestinal (GI) cancer.
Organic Psyllium Husk
Psyllium has been used for centuries as a supplement to promote regularity and overall digestive health. Psyllium husk provides fiber to feed the beneficial bacteria in the gut and can help increase water influx in the colon, which supports bulkier, more comfortable bowel movements.
Organic Slippery Elm Bark
Slippery elm is a tree native to the U.S. and Canada. The inner bark is a demulcent (mucoprotective) and has a long history of use as an herbal medicine in North America. It’s commonly used to soothe inflammation of the throat and digestive tract and has recently been studied for its ability to help treat the symptoms associated with inflammatory bowel diseases.
Organic Fennel Seed
A kitchen staple in the East, fennel seeds have a long history as both a culinary spice and medicine in ancient China, Greece, Egypt, and India. Fennel seeds are used to calm and relieve a wide variety of respiratory and digestive issues including coughs, bronchitis, heart burn, indigestion, gas, bloating, cramps, and colic.
Organic Green Tea Leaf
Green tea is loaded with polyphenols like flavonoids and catechins that act as powerful antioxidants. These substances can reduce the formation of free radicals in the body, protecting cells and molecules from damage. Green teas have been shown to activate detoxification enzymes that may help protect against tumor development.
Organic Sprouted Chia Seed
With their name translating as “strength” in the Mayan language, these tiny seeds were prized by ancient warriors for providing strength, energy, and stamina. Chia seeds are rich in omega-3 fatty acids and high in dietary fiber, protein, and minerals, including calcium, copper, phosphorus, potassium, and zinc.
Organic Flax Seed Protein Powder
Flax has been cultivated for centuries as both a healing plant and nourishing food. It’s among the best plant-based sources of omega-3 fatty acids, lignans, and fiber. Research indicates it may help reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, lung disease, and certain types of cancer.
Organic Turkey Tail Mushroom
Turkey tail mushroom contains an abundance of antioxidants and polysaccharides along with high levels of selenium and vitamins D and B3, which are crucial for maintaining immunity. Turkey tail is also an excellent prebiotic for the microbiome, helping to replenish the gut with probiotics (beneficial gut flora).
Lactobacillus Plantarum
A common beneficial bacteria found in cultured vegetables, this hardy probiotic can withstand temperatures between 1-60°C (33-140°F). It has the ability to adhere to the sides of the intestines, creating a healthy barrier in the colon and is resistant to most commonly prescribed antibiotics.
