The Best Natural Energy-Booster
Too many of us drag through our days exhausted, worn out from the demands of work, family, home and other pressures.
The best energy-producing supplement is Ginseng, an adaptogen, a class of natural substances with a unique ability to restore equilibrium throughout the body. It takes a while for the full effects to kick in . . . But once they do, the benefits can be substantial. For over 2000 years, Ginseng has been used as a natural nutritional remedy to bolster vitality!
The problem of energy depletion is that too much stress blocks up our energy-producing machinery. Here’s how this process occurs: Cellular energy is generated in the mitochondria, tiny structures within each cell that turn nutrients into energy, which is stored in the form of the molecules adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and creatine phosphate (CP). But when we’re under stress, our bodies release a surge of hormones such as adrenaline, norepinephrine, and cortisol. The stress response can damage the mitochondria and hampers cells’ ability to produce the ATP and CP they need – setting off a vicious cycle in which underfed cells become even more vulnerable to stress.
The adaptogenic nutritionals help by improving cells’ production of ATP and CP. They also improve the function of other systems that affect energy, enhancing the body’s own ability to deliver oxygen to cells and reducing oxidative damage that can harm the mitochondria.
Next time you’re feeling exhausted and in need of a pick-me-up, reach for this energy-booster . . . GINSENG
Ginseng (panax) has been most thoroughly researched of the adaptogenic nutritionals. Ginsenosides, a class of molecules it contains, are thought to keep cortisol and other stress hormones from surging out of control, thereby preventing chronic stress from draining energy. Ginseng also relaxes blood vessels, which should maximize oxygen delivery to cells throughout the body.
Recommended dosages about 100 to 700 milligrams a day, taken in divided doses twice a day (just don’t take it at night, as it may interfere with sleep). You’re more likely to get results at the higher doses. Ginseng acts slowly; expect to wait a few weeks to feel the full effects.
New Study In Japan Reports... Herbal Medicines Are Valuable For Treatment Of Gastrointestinal Diseases
Herbal medicines could benefit patients suffering from gastrointestinal (GI) motility disorders that cannot be treated using conventional drug therapy.
In a new study published in Neurogastroenterology and Motility, researchers reviewed data on Japanese herbal medicines and found them to be effective in reducing the symptoms of GI disorders such as functional dyspepsia, constipation, and postoperative ileus.
Japanese herbal medicines have been used in East Asia for thousands of years explained the researchers at the Keio University School of Medicine. Their review of the world medical literature reveals that herbal medicines serve a valuable role in the management of patients with functional gastrointestinal disorders.
Many of the drugs used to treat GI motility disorders are ineffective or cause unwanted side effects. In some cases, this has led to drugs being withdrawn from the market. Herbal medicine is recognised an attractive, low cost alternative.
The researchers reviewed data from studies looking at the effect of several different Japanese herbal medicines including the use of mixture of Ginseng, Ginger, and Zanthoxylum fruit was effective in reducing discomfort caused by functional dyspepsia. The herbs were also beneficial for constipation in children and patients suffering from post-operative ileus - disruption of normal bowel movements following an operation. Another herbal medicine reduced the severity and frequency of diarrhoea caused by anti-cancer drugs.
The researchers explain that the health benefits of herbal formulations require more rigorous examination, particularly in the Western world. There is a mandate to provide accurate data regarding the effectiveness of non-traditional therapy to healthcare providers who face the dilemma of recommending or opposing management strategies that incorporate herbal medicine.
