CHO-WA - The health benefits and health formula
ingredients of CHO-WA
For
centuries in Japan only the direct decendants of the Tiger Shogun
were given access to this incredible health formula, CHO-WA. Eventually
a small group of ordinary citizens in Japan were given CHO-WA thus
its legend grew. Finally through the tireless efforts of Dr. Kumato,
CHO-WA is available for people outside of Japan. If you would like

that were held secret for centuries, if you desire the health benefits

Cho-Wa
ingredients and health claims:
Green
Tea (leaf)
Unproven claims
Green tea has been credited with providing a wide variety of health
benefits, many of which have not been validated by scientific evidence.
These claims are listed here:
" Stopping certain neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's
and Parkinson's.
" Preventing/treating cancer
" Treating multiple sclerosis
" Preventing the degradation of cell membranes by neutralizing
the spread of free radicals (which occurs during the process of
oxidation).
" Reducing the negative effects of LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol)
by lowering levels of triglycerides and increasing the production
of HDL cholesterol good cholesterol. Increasing fat oxidation (helps
the body use fat as an energy source) and raising metabolism.
" Joy Bauer, a New York City nutritionist, says [the catechins
in green tea] increase levels of the metabolism speeding brain chemical
norepinephrine.
" Japanese researchers claim if you drink five cups of green
tea a day, you'll burn 70 to 80 extra calories. Dr. Nicholas Perricone,
an anti-aging specialist, appeared on the Oprah Winfrey show and
told Oprah's viewers they can lose 10 lbs. in 6 weeks drinking green
tea instead of coffee.
" The major concern with drinking too much green tea is the
caffeine it contains. Too much caffeine can cause nausea, insomnia
or frequent urination.
Rhodiola
(root)
- Very effective for improving mood and alleviating depression.
Research shows that it improves both physical and mental performance,
reduces fatigue, and prevents high altitude sickness.
Ginkgo (leaf) - Ginkgo extract
seems to have three effects on the human body: it improves blood
flow to most tissues and organs; it protects against oxidative cell
damage from free radicals; and it blocks many of the effects of
PAF (platelet aggregation, blood clotting) that have been related
to the development of a number of cardiovascular, renal, respiratory
and CNS (Central Nervous System) disorders.
It has many alleged nootropic properties, and is mainly used as
memory enhancer and anti-vertigo agent.
Epimedium (aerial) - Species
of Epimedium are alleged to have aphrodisiac qualities.
Astragalus (root) - It is used
as a general tonic as well as a specific immune system enhancer.
It is known as 'Huangge qi' (qi or chi being the word for energy)
as it is used to build a patients' defensive energy. Traditional
Chinese medicine records Astragalus as having benefits in cases
of heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes and respiratory
infections. It is often used in conjunction with other herbs. In
a 1994 Italian study (Morazzoni, Bombardelli) breast cancer patients
were given a combination of Iigustrum and Astragalus. Patients given
this mix showed a decline in mortality from 50% to 10%. In another
study of patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer all undergoing
chemotherapy, the group taking the dual herb mix showed an average
life span increase of 130%.
Lycium
(fruit)
- A sweet tonic decoction made from the fruits is used to lower
blood pressure and blood cholesterol levels. It acts mainly on the
liver and kidneys. The fruit is taken internally in the treatment
of high blood pressure, diabetes, poor eyesight, vertigo, lumbago,
impotence and menopausal complaints. The root bark is a bitter,
cooling, antibacterial herb that controls coughs and lowers fevers,
blood pressure and blood cholesterol levels. It is taken internally
in the treatment of chronic fevers, internal haemorrhages, nosebleeds,
tuberculosis, coughs, asthma etc. The plant has a long history of
medicinal use, both as a general, energy restoring tonic and also
to cure a wide range of ailments from skin rashes and eyesight problems
to diabetes. A tonic tea is made from the leaves. The fruit of many
members of this genus is a very rich source of vitamins and minerals,
especially in vitamins A, C and E, flavanoids and other bio-active
compounds. It is also a fairly good source of essential fatty acids,
which is fairly unusual for a fruit. It is being investigated as
a food that is capable of reducing the incidence of cancer and also
as a means of halting or reversing the growth of cancers.
Euphoria Fruit - Euphoria contains
several vitamins and minerals, including iron, magnesium, phosphorus
and potassium, and large amounts of vitamins A and C. A recent study
on euphoria fruit also identified and quantified phenolic compounds
in the fruit, such as gallic acid, corilagin, and ellagic acid,
indicating that the fruit may have antioxidant, chemo-preventive,
and liver protective properties.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Euphoria longan is considered
to be sweet and warm energetically, and is associated with the Heart
and Spleen meridians. It is used primarily to tonify the Blood.
Blood tonics are generally used for symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness,
palpitations, pale face and tongue, and poor vision. In addition
to the above symptoms, Euphoria fruit is also used to nourish the
spirit, encourage restful sleep, reduce anxiety, and calm an agitated
mind. No wonder it is called Euphoria!
Licorice
(root) - Powdered liquorice root is an effective expectorant,
and has been used for this purpose since ancient times.
Shiitake (fruiting body) -See below
Reishi (fruiting body) - See below
Maitake (fruiting body)-Maitake - Grifola frondosa - See below
Most
of the 'medicinal' mushrooms have the ability to enhance immune
function by stimulating cell-mediated immunity, or, in simple terms
these mushrooms seem to switch-on the cells of our immune system,
called T-cells, which have significant cancer-fighting properties.
Japanese scientists believe that the Maitake
mushroom could be one of the most potent of all medicinal mushrooms.
In Asia,
a variety of dietary products have been used for centuries as popular
remedies to prevent or treat different diseases. A large number
of herbs and extracts from medicinal mushrooms are used for the
treatment of diseases. Mushrooms such as Ganoderma
lucidum (Reishi), Lentinus edodes
(Shiitake), Grifola
frondosa (Maitake), Hericium erinaceum (Yamabushitake),
and Inonotus obliquus (Chaga) have been collected and consumed in
China, Korea, and Japan for centuries. Until recently, these mushrooms
were largely unknown in the West and were considered "fungi"
without any nutritional value. However, most mushrooms are rich
in vitamins, fiber, and amino acids and low in fat, cholesterol,
and calories. These mushrooms contain a large variety of biologically
active polysaccharides with immunostimulatory properties, which
contribute to their anticancer effects. Furthermore, other bioactive
substances, including triterpenes, proteins, lipids, cerebrosides,
and phenols, have been identified and characterized in medicinal
mushrooms.
