Jiaogulan Powder

Jiaogulan (Gynostemma pentaphyllum) – 1 oz

Known as the "Immortality Herb," Jiaogulan is a revered adaptogenic plant native to the mountainous regions of China and Southeast Asia. Traditionally used to promote vitality, endurance, and balance, this caffeine-free herbal tea is rich in natural compounds that support overall wellness.

Ingredients:

• 100% dried Jiaogulan leaves

Preparation Techniques:
Use 1 teaspoon (about 1–2 grams) per 8 oz of hot water. Steep at 185–195°F (85–90°C) for 3–5 minutes, covered to preserve delicate aromatic oils. For a smoother taste, try shorter steeping times. The leaves can be re-steeped multiple times, gradually releasing their flavor and healthful compounds.

Medicinal Benefits:

• Adaptogen: Jiaogulan may help the body manage stress and fatigue, supporting energy levels and endurance.

• Cardiovascular & metabolic support: Rich in gypenosides, compounds similar to those in ginseng, Jiaogulan has been traditionally used to support healthy blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels.

• Immune and antioxidant effects: Its high antioxidant content may help fight inflammation, support liver function, and strengthen immune defenses.

Fun Historical Fact:
First documented in Chinese texts during the 15th century, Jiaogulan was used as a survival food during famines. In certain rural regions, where daily consumption was common, locals became known for their exceptional longevity—earning Jiaogulan the nickname "the Immortality Herb."
