Gynostemma

 

 “MAGICAL GRASS”

 

In Asia, Gynostemma is known as a “magical grass.” It has been reported to have a wide range of health-promoting benefits

 

In Asia, Gynostemma is considered to be*

 

  • Invigorating (does not cause hyperactivity – not a stimulant)
  • Calming (promotes a sense of peace – not a sedative)
  • Anti-aging (antioxidant and more)
  • Anti-inflammatory (not as a medicine, but to help reduce the factors that cause low grade, sub-clinical chronic inflammation experienced by all humans)
  • Immune-regulating (not as a medicine, but to help support the normal healthy functioning of various immune functions)
  • A respiratory tonic (improve respiratory efficiency)
  • A digestive aid (Gynostemma is very soothing)

 

Gynostemma has been shown in animal studies to have liver and cardiovascular-protecting benefits and to support normal healthy functioning in these organs.*

 

The ultimate greatness of Gynostemma lies in its broad spectrum adaptogenic (stress modulating) quality.* Adaptogenic herbs improve the efficiency of the metabolic, neurological, immunologic, respiratory and endocrine systems. Prolonged consumption of Gynostemma tends to have a highly protective quality because it strengthens the adaptive capacity of the person at every level of their life.*

 

Gynostemma has a “double-direction activity” in many areas*

 

Gynostemma has the ability to bring balance to the body under a wide range of stressful circumstances.

 

  • Japanese studies have indicated that Gynostemma has a double-direction, regulating, adaptogenic influence on thecentral nervous system. It is calming when one is overexcited and invigorating when one is fatigued.
  • Gynostemma is widely known for its “spirit-lifting” effect on one’s mood.
  • Gynostemma may have a direct strengthening effect on the heart*

 

Gynostemma has developed an enormous reputation in Asia as a major aid in weight management programs.

 

  • Gynostemma has been shown to have a double-direction activity with regard to weight. Gynostemma can be useful in reducing excessive body fat, when combined with a reasonable exercise program and a healthy diet that modulates caloric intake. 
  • Gynostemma may also help athletes, body builders or excessively slim people to gain weight.
  • Gynostemma accelerates the body’s metabolism and helps adjust blood sugar and blood fat levels. Adjusting blood sugar and blood fat are critical steps in attaining healthy metabolic function, whether one wants to lose weight by reducing excessive body fat, gain weight by building lean muscle, or maintain healthy weight by helping regulate bodily functions.
  • Although Gynostemma is not laxative, it may help maintain healthy bowel movements.
  • Gynostemma acts as a scavenger in the stomach and intestines, ridding the body of toxins, toxic microbes and waste that otherwise may become lodged in the intestines.
  • Gynostemma protects the stomach lining.*

 

Gynostemma has potent antioxidant, and concomitant anti-inflammatory activity.

 

  • Gynostemma is a potent antioxidant that protects cell membranes from oxidative injury which can result in chronic inflammation.*

 

The main active ingredients in Gynostemma are known as saponins.

 

  • The saponins in Gynostemma are called gypenosides. There are at least 82 gypenosides in Gynostemma.
  • These gypenosides are responsible for the hepato-protective and adaptogenic qualities of this tonic herb.*
