Adaptogenic, alterative, anabolic, anti-anemic, antibiotic, anti-cachexic, anti-dyscratic, anti-infective, antioxidant, antiphlogistic (anti-inflammatory), antiseptic, astringent, bacteriostatic (anti-bacterial), depurative, detoxicant, disinfectant, diuretic, immuno-potentiating, immuno-stimulant, microbicidal (anti-microbial), nutritive, rejuvenative, restorative, 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 forms of anemia or anemic conditions
throughout the blood vessels, tissue-systems, or musculature;
relieves various forms of anemic conditions, vascular
constrictions, impaired circulation or other blood disorders, due
to its rich content of iron and vitamin C (which further enhances
the assimilation of iron); relieves any blood deficiencies
(including peripheral arterial insufficiency), and restores
increased suppleness and greater elasticity to any hardened
arteries or blood vessels; eliminates any hematuria (presence of
blood or blood cells in the urine), as well as any phlegmasia and
other degenerative disease-conditions; promotes the formation of
healthy red blood cells (due to the high content of iron), and
eliminates various toxins and metabolic waste products by
stimulating increased kidney activity; 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; exhibits
immuno-potentiating and immuno-stimulatory effects in order to
enhance greater long-term immune potential and overall
non-specific systemic immunity (or immune cell activity) and
increased immune response (by activating the body's natural
defense mechanisms), particularly in relation to the repair and
restoration of any damaged muscles or connective tissues
throughout the entire organism; 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, iron, magnesium, manganese, niacin, phosphorus,
potassium, protein, selenium, silicon, zinc, and vitamins A, B1, 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 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.
