A Healthy Plant Needs Nourishing So Does A Healthy Body & Mind

1.       Liver
The liver breaks down complex drugs and nutrients from the blood passing through it into simpler forms that can be easily absorbed by other organs. Another vital task performed by the liver is that of detoxifications of potentially harmful chemicals. The liver also regulates the blood sugar levels. An important function of the liver is the production of protein, blood proteins and clotting factors. The liver also enables storage of vital nutrients such as glycogen, vitamins and proteins. The liver plays a very important role in resisting infections by producing immune factors and removing bacteria from the bloodstream. It is therefore very important that the liver functions smoothly for the overall well-being of a person.

Benefits:- # Improve the functioning of the liver # Remove excess levels of toxins # Add in the replenishment of depleted nutrients

2.       Placenta
Placenta tissue has one of the largest numbers of blood vessels and the best circulation in the body, and the cells have a very high metabolic rate. It is a “Reservoir” organ for the vital vitamins and trace elements without which the body’s defense mechanisms could not function. The basic effect of each course of  treatment with Placenta is to improve vascular blood flow and cell respiration. It also promotes gaseous exchange in the lungs. These circulatory actions are associated with normalization of blood pressure.

Benefits: # Provides nutrients & remove waste products # Regeneration of skin cells # Cell growth & regeneration # Regulate our metabolism

3.       Thymus
The thymus is one of our major immune system glands. It is composed of two soft pinkish-gray lobes lying in bib-like fashion just below the thyroid gland and above the heart. To a large extent, the health of the thymus determines the health of the immune system. The thymus is responsible for many immune system functions, including the production of T lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell responsible for “cell-mediated immunity”. Cell-mediated immunity is extremely important in the resistance to infection by certain bacteria, yeast, fungi, parasites and viruses. Cell-mediated immunity is also critical in protecting against the development of cancer, allergies, and autoimmune disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis. The thymus gland also releases several hormones such as thymosin, thymopoeitin, and serum thymic factor that regulate many immune functions.

Benefits: # Reduce autoimmune reactions # Increase disease fighting antibodies # Commonly used to treat various illnesses & diseases. # increase the number of lymphokines, interleukin 2 (IL2), interferon, etc


4.       Kidney
The kidneys serve as the body’s blood filtration system, eliminating waste products through urine while retuning decontaminated water to the blood plasma. All the blood contained inside the body flows through the kidneys approximately 20 times during an hours time. As blood passes through the kidney, water and dissolved substances are filtered through the capillary walls. Blood and proteins are retained within the capillaries and useful materials such as water, glucose, amino acids, vitamins and minerals are absorbed. This essential filtration and resorption process is responsible for helping to maintain the delicate water balance in the body.

Benefits: # Maintains cellular health # Improves calcium absorption # Support the kidney’s filtration of wastes and reabsorption of useful materials

5.       Cartilage
Cartilage is a type of dense connective tissue found in humans and other animals. Blusih-white or gray in colour, the semi-opaque tissue has no nerve or blood supply of its own. Degenerative joint diseases or osteoarthritis is the most common striking 121 people out of 1,000 between the ages of 18 and 79. When bone rubs against bone because the joint surface is gone, osteoarthritis develops. This rubbing happens when the cartilage that surrounds the ends of the bones degenerated. Cartilage provides shock absorbency and reduces friction as joint moves.

Benefits:  #Remove any old cartilage and replace with fresh, new cartilage # Helps cartilage to grow stronger # Stimulate cartilage growth # Help repair joints and diminish joint pains
