Our curated tonic was known as an ancient guarded secret as a beauty & sensual wellness tonic due to the potent extract from organically mountain grown Schisandra berries, the herb revered by imperial women. Schisandra is considered to be one of the greatest female longevity tonic herbs, famous as an adaptogenic, clinically known as an anti-aging herb with stamina and vitality elements, including enhancing beauty and sensual desires. Schisandra berries are known to exhibit the taste of five flavors, nourishing the root of the main five organs which potentiates its potency. Schisandra berries combined with premium Lu Róng and Desert Ginseng make for a potent adrenal and sensual wellness tonic created for health, wellness and pleasure.

Cistanche - Rou Cong-Rong

Cistanche species, known as Rou Cong-Rong in Chinese, are an endangered wild species and are mainly distributed in the arid lands and warm deserts of northwestern China. Within Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Herba Cistanche is applied as a tonic and/or in a formula for chronic renal disease, impotence, female infertility, morbid leucorrhea, profuse metrorrhagia, and senile constipation. The chemical constituents of Herba Cistanche mainly consist of volatile oils, non-volatile phenylethanoid glycosides (PhGs), iridoids, lignans, alditols, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides. There have been an increasing number of studies focusing on its bio-activities, including antioxidation, neuroprotection, and antiaging. The objective of this review was to introduce this herb, Cistanche to the world. Its taxonomy, distribution, and corresponding biological functions and molecular mechanisms are addressed in this review.to the world. Its taxonomy, distribution, and corresponding biological functions and molecular mechanisms are addressed in this review.

Lu Róng, velvet antler (VA)

Lu Róng, is a traditional Chinese medicine, which is used as a food supplement and therapeutic drug in China, Japan, Russia, New Zealand and Southeast Asia. The regenerative characteristics of VA have resulted in great research interest, particularly regarding the fields of organ grafting and stem cell differentiation. Various VA proteomic studies verified that proteins act as the primary bioactive components of VA. The present study aimed to investigate if VA proteins (VApro) influence endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) viability. Various methods have previously been used to investigate VApro, including freezedrying technology, ultrasonic wave methods, high-performance liquid chromatographymass spectrometry, EPCs extraction and culture. Results demonstrated that VApro promoted EPCs proliferation and migration, particularly at a concentration of 1 mg/ml. Furthermore, VApro increased the activation level of Notch1 intracellular domain and Hes1, and the level of phosphorylatedAkt and phosphorylatedmechanistic target of rapamycin. VApro may therefore affect EPC viability via regulation of the Notch and Akt signaling pathways. The present study revealed the effects and potential molecular mechanism of VApro on EPCs, and suggested an association between VA regeneration characteristics and the optimization of EPC viability. These findings may contribute to EPC transplantation research and aid in providing a novel treatment method for vascular diseases in the future.

Siraitia grosvenorii - Luo Han Guo

Key findings in the research conducted on Siraitia grosvenorii is a fruit native to China and has many years of medicinal history. Because of its low-calorie and sugar-free properties, it is approved as a sweetener substitute in foods for obese and diabetic patients. Experiments have shown that this sweetener is non-toxic. This article summarises much literature on S. grosvenorii extracts, briefly introduces their chemical composition and metabolic distribution and summarises the possible pharmacological effects of each S. grosvenorii extract. Siraitia grosvenorii extract has anti-diabetic, anti-tumour, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, neuroprotective and lipogenic inhibitory effects. These pharmacological activities suggest the medicinal value of S. grosvenorii.
