Ginkgo Biloba's History and Benefits
Have you heard of the Ginkgo Biloba tree?
This tree has been around for 200 million years and has shown its power because it can get one thousand years old! Throughout time its leaves have shown benefits for overall circulation in the body affecting our heart and brain.
So many of us can enjoy health benefits from taking Ginkgo Biiloba in a supplement form daily.
Testosterone for Both Men and Women
Men and Women both make testosterone. Men make it pretty much all their life; women drop their monthly production when they get into menopause.
I dare to say 99% of men do NOT know that from testosterone we make two more hormones?
What happens is there are two different enzymes that start “pulling” on testosterone and converting it into other hormones.
Aromatase converts testosterone into the female hormone called ESTRADIOL.
Then there is the enzyme called 5-ALPHA-REDUCTASE, which converts testosterone into DHT (or Dihydrotestosterone).
Glucosamine For Arthritis
The supplement Glucosamine has been in the news since 1996 when a book was written by Dr. Jason Theodosakis called “The Arthritis Cure.” Its content was focused primarily on Osteoarthritis.
Glucosamine showed to have greater pain relieving effects long term than Aspirin and other Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs.
What will you GAIN with no PAIN?
Garlic - The Stinkin' Rose
Almost everyone knows that garlic is known as a healthy herbal supplement …though, of course, it is technically a food!
Health benefits of the “Stinking Rose” have been described for over 5000 years and have been relegated to folklore status. Today there is mounting scientific evidence that garlic is indeed a “super food”!!
The health benefits of garlic fall into such categories as cardiovascular, cholesterol reducing, antifungal, antimicrobial, and also immune stimulating.
The Immune-Boosting Power of Echinacea.
According to VeryWellHealth.com echinacea has been used as a remedy for conditions such as toothaches, stomach pain, snake bites, skin disorders, chronic arthritis, and in the fight against different cancers.
Echinacea’s major effect on the immune system is its stimulation of white blood cell production. This in turn helps to purify the blood, and protect us from infections.
I always suggest that echinacea is more an “immune BOOSTER”, kinda like kicking our immune system into gear; whereas other herbs, such as Astragalus, are more into BUILDING the immune system.
The Tried-and-True Wellness Formula
One of the best and easiest ways to get yourself tuned-up for the winter season is by taking a nutritional supplement that combines all the goodies in ONE or TWO tablets.
And though I don’t endorse one company over another, nor am I endorsed by a specific vitamin line-of-products with these daily Health Pearls, there is ONE formula that has stood up to its name for about 40 years!!
I wish you WELL…NESS!
