General Information
This high potency formulation offers the combined benefits of African Potato, Beta ACEZ and Green Tea. African Potato (Hypoxis hemerocallidea) has a long history of use by traditional healers. Recently it has attracted the interest of the biomedical and ethnobotanical community because of its unusual chemical constituents and their efficacy in the treatment of immune system disorders, including HIV and cancers. Researchers have found that the plant sterols and sterolins, which are found in high concentrations in the African potato, increase the functioning of T-cells, which control and regulate the immune system. This increases the body's natural resistance to disease and helps fight illnesses. Reduction in allergy symptoms has also been shown. In research undertaken by Professor Patrick Bouic, an immunologist at the University of Stellenbosch, clinical trials have shown that patients with HIV maintained their blood lymphocyte levels compared to a control group of patients over a 36 month period. After 27 months, the levels had not changed in the group taking sterols and sterolins, while the control group had all died. Professor Ruben Sher of HIV Care International has supported the use of the African potato plant as it has shown the ability to increase the amount of white blood cells in the body. He often supplements anti-viral drugs with African potato. Combining the anti-oxidant properties of Beta-carotene Vitamins A, C and E with the properties of Zinc to help combat the effects of pollution. Beta-carotene is the natural and most potent precursor of Vitamin A, and is believed to protect against and be beneficial in certain types of cancer. Vitamin A is a fat soluble vitamin, which helps protect lung tissue from damage caused by oxidizing chemicals in the air. Vitamin C helps prevent lead build-up in the body and helps detoxify other toxins. Vitamin E acts as an antioxidant for the body's lipid based membrane system. When used in combination with Vitamin A it increases protection of lung tissue and protects against the effects of carbon monoxide and chlorinated pesticides. Vitamin E is needed for the protection of fatty acids and for maintaining the effectiveness of the B and C group vitamins. Zinc is believed to stimulate the action of vitamins, aid tissue respiration and help with Essential Fatty Acid metabolism. Green tea is a powerful anti-oxidant which is believed to protect against radiation, and to inhibit tumor growth, it has anti-viral and anti-bacterial properties and a regulatory effect on blood pressure and digestion.
