KEY INGREDIENTS:

CHINESE SIBERIAN GINSENG “ELEUTHERO”: Ginseng is the second most predominant ingredient in SPORTeaâ.  Ginseng has been a favorite daily REJUVENATOR in Europe, China and Japan for centuries and is highly regarded as an “adaptogen” – a substance used to STIMULATE and ENHANCE physical and mental body functions.  SPORTea® is formulated using the ORGANIC variety of Eleuthero-Ginseng harvested in Northern China where it is consumed daily in the form of a tea combined with other herbs.  This PREMIUM GRADE of Siberian Ginseng is considered an ENDURANCE BUILDER, STAMINA ENHANCER and RECOVERY DRINK useful during an illness, before and after workouts, or throughout the day to alleviate the physical discomfort(s) associated with daily stress and strain. Siberian Ginseng fights stress as it provides an energizing effect by enhancing bodily systems efficiency and overall balance and thus improved functional performance. It is also frequently taken to COUNTERACT the EFFECTS of Alcohol Consumption and office burnout due to fatigue.  Furthermore, this type of Ginseng is not specifically male or female oriented – rather, it works well for both. Our company has inquired and we have been advised that Siberian Ginseng from this region has never had a negative critique filed on its behalf with the National Herb Research Foundation (Boulder, CO). So we may enjoy the benefits of this beverage without worry or concern about negative side effects.

SCIENTIFIC FINDINGS:

“Siberian Ginseng ‘Eleuthero’ increases physical endurance and mental alertness.”
- Dr.I.I. Brehkman Internationally Reknown Ginseng Researcher

“Ginseng has been shown to enhance sports performance and strengthen immune function.  Now, we have learned that Ginseng may be valuable in two more areas – stress reduction and blood pressure regulation.”
- Dharmananda, S. Ph.D. Bestways  ‘87 

Siberian Ginseng… it improves work capacity and quality; enhances athletes strength and endurance; increases perceptibility of the sense organs; improves resistance to infection…”
- Doctor Arnold Pike, Director of the Academy of Nutritional Sciences ‘01

KEY INGREDIENTS:

JAMAICAN GINGER
– This pleasant Jamaican spice provides a delightful aroma and a warming, SOOTHING action, which enhances blood flow and promotes better circulation.  Gingers’ gently STIMULATING nature has long been valued for MINIMIZING THE DISCOMFORT associated with colds and flu such as headaches, tense muscles and stomach discomfort.  Ginger continues to be recommended for its ability to allay the problems of motion and altitude sickness occurring during air, sea or land travel, including jet lag disorder.

         

SCIENTIFIC FINDINGS:

“Ginger may be more effective than many commonly prescribed drugs for handling the effects of nausea, motion sickness, dizziness, stomach flu and may even be helpful in preventing a rise in serum cholesterol levels occurring from improper diet.  It also promotes digestion.”
-  Mowrey,D.B. & Clayson, D.E.
