Alleviates any general fluids dyscrasia
(abnormal or pathological condition) within the arteries, blood
vessels or capillaries throughout the circulatory system that
leads to the onset of various degenerative or debilitative
conditions associated with any blood disorders or blood
impurities involving the presence or persistence of various
pathogenic bacteria or microorganisms and their toxins in the
blood (sepsis) or the retention of excessive by-products of
protein metabolism in the blood that leads to various toxic
conditions (uremia), and eliminates any form of cachexia (state
of malnourishment and general debility) within the arterial,
venous or capillary system while removing any chronic fatigue or
exhaustion associated with excessive accumulations of toxic waste
materials throughout the bloodstream and tissue-systems; displays
biocatalytic activity in order to enhance greater assimilation of
those essential nutrients that are necessary for the increased
production of energy and vitality, thereby accelerating certain
rejuvenative processes associated with the repair of any damaged
arteries, blood vessels or capillaries throughout the entire
organism; acts as a biocatalyst in order to accelerate and
accentuate the transport of all the other herbal ingredients
throughout the entire organism to specific parts of the body, and
exerts an extremely positive influence towards correcting any
blood vessel inflammation or inflammatory conditions (while
reducing any inflamed swelling in these particular areas of the
body); exhibits cytophylactic and cytotoxic activity in order to

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 and microbicidal 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); acts as a
prophylactic during any infectious conditions, and promotes
increased tissue repair throughout the arterial, venous and
capillary 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 or
congested arteries, blood vessels or capillaries throughout the
circulatory system; 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) properties 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
throughout the arteries, blood vessels, capillaries and the
entire circulatory system; 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 arteries, blood vessels,
capillaries and the entire circulatory system; acts as a
circulatory stimulant by increasing the blood flows throughout
the circulatory system in order to enhance greater nutrient
transport, absorption and utilization, thereby accelerating the
healing processes associated with the repair of any damaged
arteries, blood vessels or capillaries throughout the entire
organism; 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; equalizes
the circulatory blood flow through the arteries, blood vessels
and capillaries, and increases arterial force by enlarging its
caliber and increasing the strength and frequency of the pulse;
acts as a stimulant during any severe post-febrile conditions
associated with impaired blood circulation, and removes any
peripheral circulatory insufficiency that leads to coldness in
the extremities; displays stimulatory activity (due to the
presence of certain volatile oils and resinous alkaloids), and
influences general capillary tone; facilitates the transport of
various essential elements or nutrients directly into the
cellular structure of the arteries, veins and capillaries in
order to provide greater elasticity, and rebuilds the entire
venous structure; strengthens the veins and arterial walls while
increasing capillary activity during conditions involving chronic
renal congestion by improving the blood flow through the kidneys,
as well as throughout the entire gastro-intestinal tract;
increases the overall bodily warmth by stimulating vigorous blood
circulation, and eases any tendencies towards capillary stasis;
sustains the portal circulation, and cleanses the entire
circulatory system; promotes increased diaphoresis, due to reflex
paralysis of the vasomotor nerve fibers located along the
branches of the 5th nerve; activates the bodily processes of
detoxification and elimination in order to cleanse and purify the
bloodstream and tissue-systems, and enlarges the blood vessels in
order to allow additional toxic waste materials to flow through
the kidneys and empty into the colon during the detoxification
process; 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;
acts as an eliminative vasotonic to the blood, liver and splenic
functions (as well as upon the eliminative functions of the
lymphatic system), and increases both sensible and insensible
perspiration in order to more effectively enhance the eliminative
capabilities of the body; 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
