Jiaogulan (Gynostemma pentaphyllum) is also known as the "herb of immortality". This plant is said to have count-less positive effects on many aspects of our health. In particular, it offers natural protection for the cardiovascular system and also supports our immune system.
Jiaogulan, the "herb of immortality", has been used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for centuries. Its active mechanisms have been examined by the medical science community in numerous studies. It is known to be a herbal adaptogen that targets the body's ability to regulate itself. Furthermore, the plant leaves contain numerous trace ele-ments and substances which support our metabolism.
Taking jiaogulan has been shown to support the cardiovascular system [1]. In addition, some studies have also demonstrated that jiaogulan has the capacity to regulate metabolic values. This includes the normalization of blood sugar and blood lipids [2] [3]. Jiaogulan with potassium can help protect blood vessels and maintain normal blood pressure [2].
Jiaogulan also contains ingredients that have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties [4]. These elements support the body in defending itself against free radicals and help to normalize our cholesterol levels [5]. Our jiaogulan product was developed to meet the demands of a modern lifestyle, which often allow us only limited oppor-tunities to exercise properly or follow dietary recommendations. And thanks to its metabolism-stimulating effect, jiaogulan can also play a positive role in weight-loss programs.
Our capsules are guaranteed to be safe. Each one of our manufactured products goes through strict test procedures in order to satisfy the legal requirements. Jiaogulan is not permitted to be sold for consumption as a food product in Germany. However, if you still want to take advantage of its health benefits, you can obtain it from us as a well-tested food supplement that is continuously checked and monitored.
While similar products from other manufacturers often only contain small amounts of the vital substance, the jiaogulan used in our product is a highly concentrated 4: 1 premium extract. We recommend taking 2 x 2 capsules spread across your day. This product is available from us in packs containing a 30-day supply, which gives you the best opportunity to plan your intake of this nutritional supplement.
When taking jiaogulan, it is especially important to pay attention to the purity and overall quality of the product. Our own product comes in the unique form of Vcaps Plus capsules. These ensure a rapid and effective release of active ingredients in the body and also guarantee that our product will always meet the highest quality standards.
Our Vcaps product packaging is 100% of vegetable origin and guaranteed entirely gelatin-free. This means our cap-sules are also very suitable for those who follow a vegan or vegetarian lifestyle. These capsules were specially deve-loped for use in nutritional supplements and offer the best possible means of protecting the ingredients from unde-sirable biological or chemical influences.
Our capsules are manufactured in Western Europe and North America, and all our supply chains are fully traceable. This capsule format ensures our product will be well tolerated and offers maximum bio-availability. Capsules protect our product ingredients from the contaminating effects of moisture and temperature, which can otherwise impair the quality of any natural product.
Our Vcaps Plus are impermeable to oxygen and also dissolve much more quickly than conventional capsules. That means your body can access these valuable ingredients up to 50% faster. Our capsule production is based on high-quality, natural cellulose material.
In order to optimize the beneficial effects of jiaogulan, our product comes in a unique potassium blend. This combina-tion of ingredients helps to intensify the effect of the primary substance. Potassium is an electrolyte that is largely found in cells and muscles, and your heart needs an adequate supply of potassium to function properly. Modern diets mean that many people do not consume enough potassium. So this deficiency is often associated with impairments of the heart and blood vessels.
As with any natural product, some undesirable effects can also occur when taking jiaogulan. In general, it is safe to consume our product. Occasionally, however, metabolic stimulation can be associated with nausea or increased bowel movement.
If you are taking any medication – especially anything which affects your insulin levels – then you should use jiaogulan with caution. This herb is renowned for its blood-sugar-regulating effects so that unforeseen interactions (e.g., hypoglycemic episodes) are difficult to predict for those taking insulin or other blood-sugar-lowering drugs.
Pregnant and breastfeeding women should also refrain from taking our product. This is because there is insufficient research to be able to assess the effects of jiaogulan on the child and on the mother. In any circumstances, always contact your doctor if you feel at all uncertain or experience any discomfort while taking jiaogulan.
Jiaogulan is known to affect blood clotting – its ingestion inhibits the formation of blood clots. Yet, depending on the reason for taking this dietary supplement, that could actually be a desirable effect. If you are taking other medications which also affect blood clotting, you should clarify this with your doctor before you begin taking our product.
Our product was developed to meet the needs of men and women who have led particularly hectic or stressful everyday lives. In such circumstances, it can sometimes be challenging to stay physically active or to eat a varied diet. While our product should not be considered a substitute for a healthy lifestyle, it can often help you achieve your health goals in challenging times.
Anyone who consumes a lot of fast food and other ready-made products has an increased risk that this may impact their cell health and cardiovascular system. The same applies to smokers and those who have prolonged periods of physical inactivity. Jiaogulan supports the body in adapting to strain and stressful circumstances by helping to main-tain the natural balance of your metabolism.
