The following is excerpted from The Professional's Herbal Formula Handbook No. 6, comprising 85 pages of traditional information and recent scientific data that describes the medical properties, physiological action and therapeutic uses for each of the 24 ingredients outlined in this formula.
Adaptogenic, alterative, anabolic, anti-anemic, antibiotic, anti-cachexic, anti-dysratic, anti-fatigue, anti-infective, antioxidant, antiphlogistic (anti-inflammatory), antiseptic, bacteriostatic (anti-bacterial), cytophylactic, cytotoxic, depurative, detoxicant, diaphoretic, disinfectant, diuretic, microbicidal (anti-microbial), rejuvenative, stimulant (circulatory and secretolytic), tonic, vasodilator, vasotonic and viricidal (anti-viral).
Alleviates any general fluids dyscrasia
(abnormal or pathological condition) within the blood vessels or
musculature that leads to the onset of degenerative or
debilitative conditions associated with various forms of anemia
or anemic disorders (including aplastic, cerebral, hypochromic,
nutritional, pernicious or sickle cell), and eliminates any form
of cachexia (state of malnourishment and general debility)
throughout the blood vessels and musculature; displays
significant antioxidant effects in order to enhance the transport
of additional oxygen directly into the cells and tissue-systems
throughout the blood vessels (due to lowered hemoglobin levels in
the blood), and removes any chronic fatigue or exhaustion
associated with various form of anemia or throughout the blood
vessels, tissue-systems, or musculature; relieves any anemic
conditions associated with fatigue, malnutrition and general
weakness or debility, due to its antiseptic and depurative
effects; protects the entire organism against any capillary
fragility or permeability while strengthening and nourishing all
the blood vessels, due to the presence of rutin; promotes
increased resistance in the walls of the capillaries (due to the
presence of the glucoside rutin), while reinforcing the
resistance throughout the entire capillary system; exhibits
cytophylactic and cytotoxic activity in order to provide stronger
cellular defense mechanisms against many physical or chemical
agents, and displays anti-infective and disinfectant properties
in order to promote increased resistance by destroying any
invasive or harmful pathogenic bacteria, microbes or viruses that
are often responsible for various infectious states or
inflammatory conditions; exhibits bacteriostatic, microbicidal
and viricidal activity in order to strengthen and increase the
resistance of the arteries, blood vessels and capillaries against
any invasive or harmful bacteria or microbes, as well as to
inhibit the further development of any infectious or inflammatory
conditions associated with the onset of sepsis, septicemia or
uremia; demonstrates significant antiphlogistic effects in order
to inhibit the formation of certain inflammatory compounds (such
as histamine, leukotrienes, prostaglandin, serine proteases and
thromboxanes), as well as to reduce any severe inflammatory
swelling associated with sepsis, septicemia or uremia by exerting
an extremely positive influence towards correcting any internal
inflammatory conditions within the arteries, blood vessels or
capillaries; exhibits significant antiseptic activity by
destroying the vitality of any organized living ferments in order
to prevent the onset of putrefaction or septicemia, and
precipitates the proteins in any inflamed tissues in order to
provide a mildly antiseptic and protective coating (under which
the regeneration of new tissue occurs) for the arteries, blood
vessels and capillaries throughout the entire organism; acts as
an effective antiseptic in order to remove any septic conditions
associated with tissue degeneration or ulceration, and promotes
increased suppuration and a steady toning or restorative
impression to the entire glandular system (especially the liver,
spleen and lymph glands); exhibits anabolic activity in order to
accelerate the production of DNA and RNA (which enhances the
production of proteins in the form of antibodies), while
increasing protein and lipid synthesis in the bone marrow and
DNA/RNA content in the adrenals and lymph nodes (along with
increased body weight and enhanced re-synthesis of glycogen and
high-energy phosphate compounds); demonstrates powerful
adaptogenic (balancing and strengthening) activity in order to
increase the overall resistance of an organism towards any
adverse influences or stressful conditions (whether they be
physical, chemical or biological in nature), especially upon the
blood vessels, musculature, immune system, and both the central
(cerebro-spinal centers) and peripheral nervous systems; acts as
a secretolytic stimulant in order to promote increased gastric,
pancreatic or intestinal secretory and motor activity, and
enhances greater peripheral circulation (due to its antioxidant
activity); exhibits significant antioxidant effects in order to
provide greater oxygen-transport capabilities throughout the
bloodstream, as well as enhance the transport of additional
oxygen directly into the cells and tissue-systems throughout the
blood vessels and musculature; acts as a circulatory stimulant by
increasing the blood flows through the arteries and blood vessels
of the muscles in order to enhance greater nutrient transport,
absorption and utilization, thereby accelerating the healing
processes associated with the repair of any damaged blood vessels
or tissue-systems throughout the entire musculature; activates
the bodily processes of detoxification and elimination in order
to cleanse and purify the bloodstream, tissue-systems and
musculature, and increases the secretion and elimination of urine
in order to provide further support to the inner cleansing
process; acts as an eliminative vasotonic to the blood, liver and
splenic functions (as well as upon the eliminative functions of
the lymphatic system), and enhances the overall cleansing process
by dilating the surface capillaries in order to more effectively
remove any toxic debris or metabolic waste materials through the
pores of the skin; displays alterative activity in order to
correct any disordered bodily function, thereby activating
increased alterations in both metabolic and tissue functions as a
defensive measure against the onset of acute or chronic disease;
exhibits restorative effects in order to regain increased vigor
or vitality and greater strength, while enhancing normal tissue
and metabolic functional capabilities; demonstrates alterative
and restorative properties in order to re-establish healthy
systemic functional capabilities, as well as to establish greater
vascular tone throughout the entire organism (due to its ability
to stimulate increased secretory flows); exhibits alterative
effects in order to stimulate the anabolic growth processes,
thereby enhancing the repair of any degenerated, deteriorated and
debilitated cells or tissues (while promoting the elimination of
any catabolic waste materials); displays tonifying effects in
order to permanently enhance the overall energy-levels throughout
the entire organism, without adversely affecting the functional
capabilities of any particular organ or system.
None.
