Adaptogenic, alkalinizer, alterative, anabolic, anti-anemic, antibiotic, anti-cachexic, anti-dyscratic, anti-fatigue, anti-infective, antioxidant, antiphlogistic (anti-inflammatory), anti-plethoric, antiseptic, bacteriostatic (anti-bacterial), cytophylactic, cytotoxic, depurative, detoxicant, diaphoretic, disinfectant, diuretic, microbicidal (anti-microbial), nutritive, rejuvenative, restorative, stimulant, (circulatory and secretolytic), stomachic, 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 anemic conditions
throughout the blood vessels, tissue-systems, or musculature;
reduces any anemic conditions caused by deficiencies of nutritive
salts in the blood, and relieves any acidosis associated with
chronic fatigue or lowered vitality; displays anti-plethoric
activity in order to remove any venous or portal congestion, and
eliminates any venous blood stagnation; stimulates the production
of mucus (due to the presence of volatile and bitter principles),
which sequesters and eliminates toxicity from specific
dysfunctional organs or bodily tissues; stimulates the functional
activities of the liver, spleen and pancreas (due to the presence
of caffeic acid), and displays stomachic properties (due to the
presence of bitter resins); relieves any hypofunction of the
digestive or circulatory activities, and exhibits alterative and
tonifying activity during any functional states of depressed
metabolic activity; alleviates any weakened cardiovascular
conditions or coronary insufficiency (due to the presence of
mannitol), and eliminates any degenerated or deteriorated
conditions in the connective tissues or interstitial fluids;
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; acts as an
effective nutritive and rejuvenative tonic to the blood vessels
muscles during convalescence (due to the presence of rich sources
of calcium, carbohydrates, chromium, fats, iron, magnesium,
manganese, niacin, phosphorus, potassium, protein, silicon,
sodium, zinc, and vitamins A, B2, B12 and C) in order to enrich, nourish
and replenish any nutritional deficiencies or insufficiency
within the cells or tissues throughout the entire body, which
leads to the development of various degenerative or atonic
conditions associated with anemia; demonstrates significant
rejuvenative and restorative properties upon the basic plasma
tissue-systems throughout the entire organism, thereby enhancing
the production of vital bodily fluids while providing greater
enrichment through increased assimilation of the various organic
mineral salts; accelerates the recuperative processes that are
essential in order to overcome any chronic degenerative or
debilitative illnesses, while facilitating greater recovery
response during convalescence in order to fully regain optimal
health and well-being; activates the bodily processes of
detoxification and elimination in order to cleanse and purify the
bloodstream, tissue-systems and musculature, and increases both
sensible and insensible perspiration in order to more effectively
enhance the eliminative capabilities of the body; acts as an
eliminative vasotonic to the blood, liver and splenic functions,
as well as upon the eliminative functions of the lymphatic
system; 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, and increases the secretion and elimination of urine in
order to provide further support to the inner cleansing process;
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.
