Passion Flower – is a pure and natural, mild sedative. Useful to calm nerves and blood pressure. It is traditionally used to alleviate neuralgia and insomnia.
Ho Shou Wu – the Longevity tonic… it has been used through the centuries in the Orient as a rejuvenator and sexual tonic, at the same time being relaxing and sleep inducing. Taken regularly it is said to restore hair color. Ho Shou Wu offers “generative” energy, increasing sperm count in men and fertility in women. Many of the remarkable benefits of this herb come from its ability to cleanse the blood of toxins, which has a strong rejuvenating effect. Clinical studies have shown it to increase lipid metabolism, thereby lowering cholesterol, and also to improve the body’s ability to metabolize glucose. The literal translation of “Ho Shou Wu” is “Black Haired Mr. He”!
