Lipid Metabolic Tea

Known as ’the Chinese herb’ gynostemma (Jiaogulan) grows in southern China. It contains three times as much active substances – saponins – as ginseng, therefore the Chinese tend to describe Jiaogulan as ’like ginseng but better’. It is traditionally considered an agent ensuring longevity.

Gynostemma, according to traditional Chinese medicine, boosts the body’s defence, contributes to metabolism stabilisation, help sustain blood lipid balance and harmonises all the functions of the body. The plant contains many amino acids, vitamins and minerals (including calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, selenium and zinc) essential in the human body.
