Rose Hips
More than 30 scientific papers have found rose hip to significantly reduce rheumatoid
arthritis due to its anti-inflammatory action. The review concluded that rosehip is
more effective than glucosamine hydrochloride in reducing osteoarthritic pain. Rosehip
is also rich in polyphenolic compounds and flavonoids such as catechin and quercetin,
and also rich in vitamin C.
The antioxidant activity of rose hips protects against
oxidant stress and also enhance the activity of antioxidant enzyme like catalase and
superoxide dismutase. Rosehip has the ability to cleanse the body and also to enhance
the body's immunity during the cleansing.
Preliminary evidence also suggests rosehip
to have an anti-obesity effect, through decreasing visceral fat.
Lemongrass
Cymbopogon citratus, more commonly known as lemongrass, possesses various pharmacological activities such as anti-amoebic,
antibacterial, antidiarrheal, antifilarial, antifungal and anti-inflammatory

cinnamyl acetate, and beta-elemene as the core active constituents. Some of the
key benefits include anti-stress, anti-diabetic, anti-lipidemic (lowering fat levels)
and glycemic lowering properties.
In a research study, ocimum sanctum and eugenol,
were shown to reduce total cholesterol, phospholipids, triglycerides. Holy basil
also showed hepatoprotective properties, which can be reflected in its liver-cleansing
ability.
Natural Orange Flavor
Orange is a very popular fruit and orange trees are the most cultivated fruit trees in the world. With over 170 different phytochemicals and more than 60 flavnoids, it's not hard to see why. Due to its high vitaminc C content, it is often associated with boosting the immune system.
Choline is an important nutrient found in oranges. Choline helps with muscle movement, sleep, cognition and memory, and reduces chronic inflammation.
Orange is noted for lower the risk of stroke in women. In a study by the American Heart Association, sugjects who consume the highest amounts of cittrus, including oranges, had a 19 per cent lower risk of ischemic stroke than women who consumed the least.
