Our organically grown ingredients and how they help:
Goldenrod
Goldenrod is a very good diaphoretic ~ supports good peripheral circulation.
as well as excellent vascular tonic (which supports heart health and cardiovascular system health).
Linden Flower and Leaf
Components in the Linden tree and in its leaves and flowers can act as a vasodilator, which is a chemical reaction that dilates blood vessels and lowers blood pressure. It is also classified as a hypotensive herb that has flavonoid tiliroside, a compound that has been shown to reduce hypertension.
Eleuthero Root
Being a stimulant, this root herb increases circulation and heart rate, and may hence, help raise blood pressure over time, making Eleuthero a beneficial herb for people living with hypotension.
Ginkgo Leaf
The most helpful components of ginkgo are believed to be flavonoids, which have powerful antioxidant qualities, and terpenoids, which help improve circulation by dilating blood vessels and reducing the "stickiness" of platelets.
Peppermint
Peppermint acts as a peripheral vasodilator. This means that it has a relaxing and dilating action on the smooth muscle of the blood vessels and capillaries. This stimulates blood flow, thereby improving circulation.
Cinnamon
Cinnamon is known to improve our blood circulation, which in turn solves digestion issues, joint pains and many other health problems. Improved blood circulation can also benefit our skin.
Gentian Root
Gentian is a bitter herb thought to stimulate digestion by increasing saliva production and promoting stomach acid and digestive enzyme production. Gentian roots can energize the blood and circulate to all parts of your body by strengthening the whole cardiovascular system. This herb is also used to refresh tired tissues as many people described to feel less sluggish after consuming gentian roots.
