Caralluma

Many Americans struggle with their dietary habits, exercise programs and will power. As a result, the majority of Americans are now overweight.

Dragon Herbs Caralluma is an effective weight management herb for those who are overweight but who are not clinically obese. Dragon Herb’s Caralluma has a double-action modus operandi, making it highly effective.

1.     Caralluma fimbriata is an appetite suppressant. Controlled clinical trials on Dragon Herb’s Caralluma have demonstrated that it suppresses appetite. When we eat, the nerves from the stomach send a signal to the hypothalamus in the brain. This is the part of the brain that controls appetite. When a person is hungry, the hypothalamus sends a signal to the brain that food is needed. When the stomach is full, the hypothalamus signals the brain to stop eating.

Caralluma inhibits this hunger sensory mechanism of the hypothalamus. The pregnane glycosides contained in Dragon Herb’s Caralluma interfere with the signaling mechanism and create a signal on its own, apparently fooling the brain into thinking that the stomach is full, even when the person has not eaten.

2.     Dragon Herb’s Caralluma has also been shown to promote fat loss and weight loss.

The main reason why most weight loss programs fail is because of tiredness and dullness created by the loss of weight, which forces the person to go back to old eating habits, resulting in a rebounding weight gain. Caralluma, however, has been shown in controlled clinical trials to help participants to feel more energetic and gain lean muscle mass while losing fat.

Dragon Herb’s Caralluma inhibits fat synthesis by blocking the formation of acetyl Co-Enzyme A and malonyl Co-Enzyme A, which are major building blocks of fat synthesis. Dragon Herb’s Caralluma also increases burning of fat by the body. This makes more energy available to the body and makes the person more active and lively. The muscle cells burn more calories than fat cells. So when more energy is available to the body, muscle cells burn energy faster. Muscle cells are heavier than fat cells but they are also denser than fat cells. So they occupy less space and consequently the person appears more compact and trimmer than before using Caralluma.

Dragon Herbs takes its role as provider of superior grade dietary supplements with the utmost seriousness. Along with a healthy diet and exercise, Caralluma is a very useful herbal supplement for those wanting to promote and maintain healthy metabolism, appetite and weight. It may be used by those who are overweight. Caralluma is not for those who are clinically obese. If you are overweight, you should consult with a physician. If you are diagnosed as clinically obese this product is not for you unless advised as such by your physician, as obesity is a severe medical condition. Caralluma is a very useful herbal supplement for non-obese overweight people wanting to promote and maintain healthy metabolism, suppress appetite and reduce weight.

Dragon Herbs Caralluma is a proprietary standardized extract of Caralluma fimbriata, an edible cactus used for centuries in India as a “famine food” and appetite suppressant. Dragon Herbs Caralluma is made by a special process that extracts the essential constituents of the whole herb without chemical alteration to any of the key constituents, ensuring that the full benefits of the herb are delivered in concentrated form.

Native populations of India consume locally growing plants and herbs as part of their diets. Edible succulents grow wild all over India and are part of the daily diets of several native populations. The Caralluma genus is one such genus of edible succulents, which includes several species that are widely consumed and known to be both safe and nutritious. Caralluma fimbriata has been studied for its effects on humans. This succulent vegetable is used in South India to enhance endurance and suppress appetite, especially by those performing labor. Indian tribesmen are known to chew chunks of Caralluma for energy and to suppress hunger when on a day's hunt. Often, tribesmen would pack only a bag of Caralluma fimbriata to sustain themselves during long journeys.

Wealth of India, the Indian Health Ministry's comprehensive compilation on herbs, lists Caralluma fimbriata as a vegetable and as a “famine food” – in other words, a wild plant that may be consumed for sustenance during a crop failure and general food shortage.

The key phytochemical constituents of the herb are pregnane glycosides, flavone glycosides, megastigmane glycosides, bitter principles and saponins.

Dragon Herb’s Caralluma should be used as part of a complete program

If you are consuming Dragon Herbs Caralluma as a dietary supplement for the purposes of weight management, and especially if you are planning to use it to help lose weight, it should be consumed as part of a broad health program, which would include sufficient exercise, reduced calorie intake, consumption of a well-balanced diet loaded with vegetables, fruits, antioxidants, sea vegetables, low-fat protein sources, whole grains, legumes, and tonic herbs, etc.

Guilin Sweetfruit Dropsä

If you like your teas sweet, you will enjoy Guilin Sweetfruit Drops. This liquid extract of a famous tonic herb from Southern China is very sweet and imparts a wonderful mild flavor to any tea.

It is the pure essence of the wonderful Luohanguo fruit that grows in the exotic southern regions of East Asia.

Guilin Sweetfruit Drops is perfectly safe for children, too. It may be used as part of your diet to help maintain a healthy blood sugar level.

Xylitol

All-Natural Sugar Substitute

The average person eats one and a half cups of sugar a day, far more than most people can handle metabolically. Excessive sugar consumption is not part of a healthy lifestyle and can contribute to weight gain.

Dragon Herbs Xylitol is an all-natural phytochemical derived from non-GMA corn cobs. Unlike typical table sugar (sucrose), xylitol does not require insulin to be metabolized. It is teaspoon-for-teaspoon as sweet as sucrose, so it is very satisfying. Xylitol has the same sweetness and bulk as sucrose with one-third calories (about 2.4 calories per gram) and no unpleasant aftertaste. Xylitol has the added quality of binding to saliva, leaving a sweet taste lingering in the mouth. It quickly dissolves and produces a cooling sensation in the mouth.

Importantly, Xylitol occurs naturally in many fruits and vegetables and is even produced by the human body during normal metabolism. Some companies sell xylitol made from birch trees. Dragon Herbs once did so as well. But because the production of xylitol from birch tree bark requires the cutting down of the birch trees, Dragon Herbs has elected to sell xylitol extracted from non-GMO corn cobs, a very renewable and sustainable resource. Dragon Herbs Xylitol is a 100% pure, white crystalline granule with a bright, refreshing, sweet flavor that is suitable for all cooking, beverages and food preparation. It may be used as part of your diet to help maintain a healthy blood sugar level. Xylitol is perfectly safe for humans. Please note that xylitol cannot be digested by dogs and should not be fed to dogs and other pets.

Amolo Teaä

Amolo, known as Amla in India, is one of the most important digestive tonics in the world. Amolo makes an excellent tea that can be consumed between meals to help with one’s overall weight management, or after meals that have included fatty foods, to help digest the fats and pass them out of the body. Amolo is a very rich source of vitamin C (as much as 25% of the fruit by weight) and is an excellent source of this essential vitamin.

Our Amolo Tea is made from the fruit that grows naturally in the tropical southern region of East China and is a variety that is highly favored throughout Asia for its flavor, potency and fat-resolving qualities. We strongly recommend drinking a cup or two of this incredible tea every day.

Healthy Vinegar

Millions of people use vinegar because it is one of nature's most nutrient-rich liquids and sauces. Vinegar may be consumed as part of the diet to help maintain a healthy blood sugar level. Perhaps the most sought after benefit of vinegar is the quick and easy weight loss it helps promote. Since it naturally helps your body get rid of excess fluids, stimulates metabolism and helps to "curb" your appetite, this age old product has been "re-discovered" and is now being used by millions to aid them in their weight loss endeavors.*
