CHIgevity Elixir Of Life
CHIgevity is our proprietary herbal formulation that is based on the ancient book of Chinese medicine Huangdi Neijing, 黃帝內經 and the teachings of the Tibetan Medicine founder Yuthog Yonten Gonpo.
The use of natural plant substances (botanicals) to treat and prevent illness is as old as humankind itself. Prehistoric peoples likely noted when consuming a particular plant part provided relief, such as willow bark "tea" lowering a fever. Sumatran clay tablets engraved forty centuries ago list plant-based remedies for common ills, as do ancient writings from Egypt, China, Europe and Central America. Today, herbal medicine is considered the primary form of medicine for perhaps as much as 80% of the world's population.
Phytonutrients —also known as phytochemicals. These are natural, bioactive compounds found within plants. Fruits and vegetables are rich in phytonutrients, but certain herbs contain very large quantities of phytonutrients that are unique to the plant kingdom. This is why for thousands of years Tibetan and Chinese healers have searched the world for curative herbs to create healing elixirs.
Phytonutrients overlap and complement one another and increases potency, this is why Tibetan and Chinese doctors create mixtures of synergistic herbs for healing the sick. CHIgevity contains specific types of phytonutrients that protect and promote your health.
More than 900 different phytonutrients have been found within many different types of plants. Modern scientific research has only recently isolated, defined and named many of these phytonuturients, while others still remain undiscovered. These protective plant compounds are an emerging area of health nutritional science and CHIgevity is leading the way to new discoveries.
CHIgevity, the Elixir of Life, contains all-natural, herbal concentrates released into the legendary Lithia Springs Mineral Water. This unique proprietary health enhancing drink ensures that all of the bio-active healthful phytonutrients contained in each drink of CHIgevity has potent high quality researched herbal phytonutrients that contain the following classes of phytochemicals.
Cartenoids protect the body by decreasing the risk of heart disease, stroke, blindness and certain types of cancer.
Terpenes can be found in almost all plant life and have a beneficial function within plants themselves; in humans, they also seem to battle against certain cancers and even heart disease.
Polyphenols are another common phytochemical and generally come in two classifications: flavonoids and non-flavonoids. CHIgevity is an excellent source of disease-fighting flavonoids that provide antioxidants that neutralize free radicals in our bodies.
