Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea)

Properties

Green tea is used as dietary supplements. In China the

medicinal use of green tea dated back to 4,700 years ago.

Currently, there is no established recommended dose for green

tea extract.

The main active ingredients of green tea include polyphenolic

compounds such as epicatechin (EC), epicatechin-3-

gallate(ECG), epigallocatechin (EGC) and epigallocatechin-3-

gallate (EGCG), all of which may be responsible for the anti-

carcinogenic and anti-mutagenic activities of green tea. Other

polyphenols in green tea include flavanols and their glycosides and depsides such as cholorogenic

acid, quinic acids, carotenoids, trigalloylglucose, lignin, protein, chlorophyll, minerals (aluminum or

manganese, depending on the soil content), caffeine and a very small amount of methylxanthines.

Polyphenols in green tea were shown to be powerful antioxidants with anti-carcinogenic properties

Human studies on pharmacokinetics of polyphenols in green tea were conducted. The evidence

suggests that ingested polyphenols and their metabolites play a role in the action against

gastrointestinal cancers. Many in vitro and in vivo studies demonstrated that polyphenols from

green tea were anti-carcinogenic by inducing apoptosis and inhibiting cell-growth, cyclin-dependent

kinase inhibitor and urokinase (an enzyme crucial for cancer growth).

The leaves have been used in traditional Chinese medicine and other medical systems to treat

asthma (functioning as a bronchodilator), angina pectoris, peripheral vascular disease, and coronary

artery disease. Tea extracts have become field of interest, due to their notional antibacterial activity.

Green tea leaves and extracts have shown to be effective against bacteria responsible for bad

breath.

Cancer prevention: A cohort study of 8,552 people with nine years of follow-up showed a negative

association of green tea consumption with cancer incidence, especially among Japanese women

drinking more than ten cups a day.

Green tea is derived from Camellia sinensis, an evergreen shrub of the Theaceae family. Chinese Camellia sinensis is native to

mainland China South and Southeast Asia, but it is today cultivated across the world in tropical and subtropical regions.

Artemisia Vulgaris L. Leaf

Properties

Artemisia vulgaris is most widely known for its affinity for

the female reproductive system, used as a uterine

stimulant that can bring on delayed menstruation and help

restore a woman's natural monthly cycle. Often used as asmudging (burning) ceremonial herb. It is mildly sedative

and useful in calming frayed nerves and easing stress. As all

the bitter herbs, it is an excellent digestive stimulant, and

is quite effective taken before or after heavy meals to

alleviate gas and bloating.

Burning mugwort in moxibustion heat therapy is one of the

oldest forms of Chinese traditional medicine and is used to

stimulate the flow ofqi and maintain general health. It

especially dispels cold and dampness.

The leaves (raw or cooked) are aromatic and somewhat bitter. Their addition to the diet aids the

digestion and so they are often used in small quantities as flavouring, especially with fatty foods.

They are also used to give colour and flavour to glutinous-rice dumplings.

In Southern Asia, the young leaves are used as a potherb. The dried leaves and flowering tops are

steeped into tea. They have also been used as flavouring in beer; though fell into virtual disuse once

hops came into favour.

The leaves have an antibacterial action, inhibiting the growth of Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus

typhi, B. dysenteriae, streptococci, E. coli, B. subtilis, Pseudomonas etc. The stem is also said to be

antirheumatic, antispasmodic, and stomachic. The roots are tonic and antispasmodic. The

compressed dried leaves and stems are used in moxibustion. The species has a number of recorded

historic uses in food herbal medicine, and as a smoking herb.

Artemisia vulgaris (mugwort or common wormwood) is one of several species in the genus Artemisia which have common names

that include the word mugwort. This species is also occasionally known as Felon Herb, Chrysanthemum Weed, Wild Wormwood,

Cinnamon ( Cassia) Bark ( Powder)

Properties

In traditional Chinese medicine, Cassia cinnamon is used

for digestive ailments such as indigestion, gas and bloating,

stomach upset, colds, flatulence, nausea, diarrhoea, and

painful menstrual periods. It's also believed to improve

energy, vitality, and circulation and be particularly usefulfor people who tend to feel hot in

their upper body but have cold feet.

It's one of the oldest known spices. To prepare it, the bark of the cinnamon

tree is dried and rolled into cinnamon sticks, also called quills. Cinnamon can

also be dried and ground into a powder. The characteristic flavour and aroma

of cinnamon comes from a compound in the essential oil of the bark called

cinnamonaldehyde.

It has a mild anti-inflammatory effect. It also slows the spoiling of food (which is probably related to

why it was used as an embalming agent in ancient Egypt), and has anti-fungal properties as well.

Cinnamon contains volatile oils (14%) of cinnamaldehyde (6080%), eugenol (up to 10%) and trans-

cinnamic acid (510%); phenolic compounds (410%), condensed tannins, catechins,

proanthocyanidins, monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes (pinene), calcium-monoterpenes oxalate, gum,

mucilage, resin, starch, sugars and traces of coumarin.

Cinnamomum cassia has been reported to have an anti diabetic, antimicrobial,

antibacterial,

antifungal, antitumour, immunomodulatory, and anti-inflammatory activities. In addition, it is found

to be effective in the treatment of cancer. It is particularly indicated for blood sugar

management and weight management.

.

Cassia (Cinnamomum aromaticum, synonym C. cassia) is an evergreen tree native to southern China, Bangladesh, India, and

Vietnam. It is used primarily for its aromatic bark, which is used as a spice and diabetic treatment.

Eugenial Caryophyllata (Clove Bud)

Properties

Cloves are native to Indonesia and used as a spice in

cuisines all over the world. Along with cinnamon, was a

valuable commodity in the ancient world.

Clove found its way into teas and tinctures, poultices and

pomanders. It was a widely used medicine and an early

anaesthetic and antiseptic. Clove was very expensive and

its distinctive taste was much admired in liqueurs and

other aromatic beverages. In the old days, pomanders

were made of oranges studded with cloves to ward off infectious diseases

Cloves are used in Indian Ayurvedic medicine, Chinese medicine, and western herbalism and

dentistry, where the essential oil is used as an anodyne (painkiller) for dental emergencies. Cloves

are used as a carminative, to increase hydrochloric acid in the stomach and to improve peristalsis.

Cloves are also said to be a natural anthelmintic. The essential oil is used in aromatherapy when

stimulation and warming are needed, especially for digestive problems. Topical application over the

stomach or abdomen are said to warm the digestive tract. The use of a clove in toothache is also said

to decrease pain. It also helps to decrease infection in the teeth due to its antiseptic properties.

Clove oil, applied to a cavity in a decayed tooth, also relieves toothache

Cloves may be used internally as a tea and topically as oil for hypotonic muscles, including for

multiple sclerosis. It is known to reduce blood sugar levels. The old texts all seem to agree on the

many therapeutic properties of clove - it is a stimulant and has stomachic, expectorant, sedative,

carminative, antispasmodic and digestive qualities. It helps flatulence, stimulates digestion and

restores appetite, so is good for convalescence. It is a general tonic for both physical and intellectual

weakness; and for those suffering from frigidity. Its principal therapeutic value, though, is antiseptic

because of the high proportion of eugenol. This is used for intestinal parasites, and for prevention of

virus infections. It is good for the immune system, and particularly effective in mouth and tooth

infections.

Cloves (Syzygium aromaticum, syn. Eugenia aromaticum or Eugenia caryophyllata) are the

aromatic dried flower buds of a tree in the family Myrtaceae.

Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice)

Properties

Licorice has a long history of medicinal use in both Eastern and

Western systems of medicine. Licorice root has been used as a

dietary supplement for stomach ulcers, bronchitis, and sore

throat, as well as infections caused by viruses, such as hepatitis.

It is a popular and well-known remedy for coughs, consumption

and chest complaints generally, notably bronchitis, and is an

ingredient in almost all popular cough medicines on account of

its valuable soothing properties.

The Extract enters into the composition of cough lozenges and pastilles, with sedatives and

expectorants. It is largely used in conjunction with infusion of linseed in the treatment of irritable

cough, sore throat and laryngitis, and an infusion made by boiling 1 OZ. of the bruised root deprived

of its bark, with 1 pint of water for a few minutes, may be employed in the treatment of sore throat

and in catarrhal conditions of the urinary intestinal tracts.

The chief constituent of Liquorice root, to which its sweet taste is due, is Glycyrrhizin (6 to 8 per

cent), obtainable in the form of a sweet, white crystalline powder, consisting of the calcium and

potassium salts of glycyrrhizic acid. The drug also contains sugar, starch (29 per cent), gum, protein,

fat (0.8 per cent), resin, asparagin (2 to 4 percent), a trace of tannin in the outer bark of the root,yellow colouring matter, and 0.03 of volatile oil.

Liquorice was prescribed by early physicians from the time of Hippocrates, in cases of dropsy, to

prevent thirst, for which it is an excellent thing, though probably the only sweet substance that has

this effect. It is thought, however, that the property does not actually belong to the saccharine juice,

but that if a piece of the root be chewed till all the juice is extracted, there remains a bitter, which

acts on the salivary glands, and this may contribute to remove thirst.

Polygonatum odoratum rhizome

Properties

Sweet in flavour, slightly cold in nature, it is related to the lung

and stomach channels. Nourishes yin to moisten the lung and

promotes the generation of the body fluid to quench thirst.

Solomon's seal has been used for thousands of years in herbal

medicine as a yin tonic. It is also used in the form of a poultice

and is believed to prevent excessive bruising and to stimulate

tissue repair. It has the effects of strengthening the heart and

raising blood pressure. Used with dangshen, the herb can

improve myocardial ischemia (a disorder of cardiac function

caused by insufficient blood flow to the muscle tissue of the

heart). Solomon's seal rhizome has an effect of reducing blood

sugar. Its injection can allevite atherosclerosis (the progressive

narrowing and hardening of the arteries over time).

The rhizoms ofPolygonatum odoratum (Mill.) Druce., familyLiliaceae. With a long history, the medicine was

often used in Chinese traditional prescriptions to treatXiaokezheng (diabetes). Administration of the n-butanol

fraction of Polygonatum odoratum with selenium supplementation reduced the blood glucose level and

peroxidative tissue damage in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. The anti-hyperglycemic action of RhizomaPolygonati Odorati was also reported by Jia (1991). The active principles to lower blood glucose level may be

saponins.

Polygonatum odoratum has too many possible beneficial herbal uses to fully enumerate. A few of its

uses include: as an astringent, as a demulcent, as a decongestant and as a vulnerary. Herbal

remedies are only prepared from the rhizome. It can also be applied externally as a poultice to treat

bruises, small wounds, etc.
