JIAOGULAN RESEARCH AND INFORMATION

“Jiaogulan is a herb from my native southern China that I believe possesses the most wide-ranging benefits for human health and wellness of any plant yet discovered. This may seem like a bold statement, but having studied this remarkable tonic herb for more than twenty years, I can assure you that there is strong scientific support to back up my passion for jiaogulan.” – Dr. Jialiu Liu served as a Professor of Pathology at Guiyang Medical College. He is widely acknowledged to be the leading jiaogulan researcher in the world and has been called the “Father of Jiaogulan.” For many years, he led a government-sponsored research team of 16 scientists studying the health-giving properties of jiaogulan.  He has been awarded numerous honours by the Chinese government for his important research projects. He has been awarded the prestigious title of “Advanced Scientist” by the Ministry of Public Health, the National Committee of Education, and the National Committee of Science. He was also honoured with the “Outstanding Scientist” award by the Guizhou Provincial Government.

JIAOGULAN & IMMORTALITY

In China Jiaogulan is referred to as the immortality herb. Many modern scientific studies are now confirming this ancient wisdom. Studies have shown the mechanism that promotes longevity (autophagy). Studies have also shown Jiaogulan to have a range of effectiveness with regards to treating chronic disorders such as asthma, migraines, neuralgia impaired respiratory function and impaired gastrointestinal function characterised by deficiency with nausea, vomiting, shortness of breath and chest congestion, gastric and duodenal ulcers, hyperlipidemia, nodules, cystitis, herpes zoster, cancers, high blood pressure, high cholesterol. It is difficult to account for all the conditions Jiaogulan is used to treat because of the many indirect pathways of biological activity. In traditional Chinese medicine, Jiaogulan has a slightly cool property and is regarded as a tonic herb with incredible healing properties. It works on the Spleen, Lung, Kidney, Liver and Heart meridians.

Jiaogulan is not a miracle panacea to all ills and disease however it certainly comes close. Of all botanical plants from Asia and Europe, Jiaogulan stands out as being one of the most powerful ways to restore health and or maintain health.

To keep this in perspective – Jiaogulan contains the largest variety of a class of plant chemicals known as saponins of any other plant in the world.

These saponins give many medicinal plants, like Ginseng for example, their therapeutic properties.

However, while Panax ginseng (one of the richest in saponins plants) contains around 28 different saponins, Jiaogulan is known today to contain at least 174 of them – over 6 times as many!
