The Herbs of Thermojetics  

 

 

 


The herbs in Thermojetics have very positive results to a lot of illnesses found in day‑to‑day living and are very powerful as individual herbs.  Each of these herbs have been specially chosen to work in harmony with the others to create a powerful yet perfectly balanced product.  THERMOJETICS involves a radical new herbal technology of premixing and fermenting these herbs.  This process creates a more powerful product by creating an amplification effect that goes beyond the effect achieved even with most advanced mixing and extracting processes.

Papain

This is found in the lush woodlands of Florida as well as in the Brazilian jungle.  Eating this makes for better digestion.  Food rich in protein will cause no problems if you eat this, since papain breaks down protein.  Research has shown that papain digests the parasites made from protein found in the body.  It not only helps to digest cheese, meat, eggs, and other protein foods in the digestive tract, but also any intestinal worms that may have settled there.  It dissolves their protein organisms and destroys them in a simple and harmless way.

Astragalus (Bai Chi)

Grown in China, oriental herbalists have used this for centuries for a wide variety of ailments, including diabetes, heart disease and high blood pressure.  Westerners, however, are just beginning to discover its benefits.  Recent studies in leading Chinese medical journals suggest Astragalus may also activate the immune system, thus enhancing the body’s natural ability to fight disease.  This herb may also prevent the spread of malignant cancer cells to healthy tissue.  Dr. G. Mavligit at the University of Texas in Houston found that this plant helped restore normal immune function in cancer patients with impaired immunity.  In fact, some herbalists routinely give Astragalus to people undergoing chemotherapy and radiation treatment.

Licorice Root

Licorice-flavored candy has been a popular confection for centuries.  The root of this plant, however, is also highly regarded for its medicinal properties.  More recently, foreign studies show that the licorice root has anti-inflammatory, anti-viral and anti-allergic properties.  It is also soothing to peptic ulcers, bladder and kidney ailments.  It is also a good expectorant.  Licorice is a time-honored remedy for arthritis due to its anti-inflammatory properties.  It stimulates the production of two steroids: cortisone and aldosterone, which help reduce inflammation.  The Japanese are investigating Licorice Root as a possible cancer treatment.  In the United States, the National Cancer Institute is investigating triterpinoids compounds found in Licorice Root for their ability to inhibit the growth of cancerous cells and prevent tooth decay.
