Schisandra chinensis - Grain alcohol 60%, spring water. Strength 1:5.
Mitochondrial energy support (cellular energy); supports healthy liver function. Excellent for skin integrity*
Summary: Most research has been conducted in China where double blind studies suggest that Schisandra has the ability to help those that suffer from Hepatitis. The lignans in the berry appear to protect the liver by stimulating cells that produce much needed antioxidants. Because of its adaptogenic properties, it has been applied next to some herbal medicines like Ginseng as a stimulator for the central nervous system, increased brain efficiency, improved reflexes, and an accelerated rate of endurance.
Rebecca comments: Schisandra berry has more recently been discovered to boost cellular energy at the mitochondrial level (increasing ATP to more youthful levels). Those who know me will agree that when it comes to health I am a "mitochondriac" - I've actually begun adding schisandra berry to the "Wondrous Skin" formula for its cellular energy-boosting benefits to the skin.
Precautions: Botanical safety research in China, Russia, and the U.S. showed that Schisandra might cause gastrointestinal upset in some individuals, though rare.
Suggested Use: Shake well. Twelve years and older, add 1-4 ml (15-60 drops) to a small amount of water and drink. Use 3-4 times daily as needed. To evaporate alcohol before drinking, add to a cup of heated water (no microwave!) and allow to sit for ten minutes before drinking. If an herb is appropriate for children, herb doses for children under 12 are typically 1/2 the adult dose; adjust by weight accordingly or check with a qualified practitioner.
