Plant compounds offer a medicinal value above all things in healthcare. Plant compounds are actually where the pharmaceutical companies go for the genesis of most of their drug inventions.
Plant compounds nourish at a cellular level.
They stimulate healthy cell production.
They offer an essential cleansing effect and restore immune functions.
They offer protection to cells through antioxidant potential, thus increasing the effectiveness of chemotherapy treatments.
They help restore telomeres and help produce stem cells (both are intimately involved in health renewal).
Plant compounds and phytonutrients reverse inflammation and they also interfere with abnormal cellular growths.
Plant compounds simply achieve what synthetic materials and devices cannot. Plant nutrients are life-giving and extend lifespans. They are the ultimate physical lifeline for humanity. Whether you eat them as a food, juice them, blend them, or take them in a proper supplement formulation, they will not fail you. We as humans are a form of a plant ourselves and based on the premise, we are what we eat, we will receive health restoration by ingesting plants as our medicine.
“Let food be thy medicine…”
Hippocrates
Phytochemicals are an exciting topic to research. Polyphenols, Polyphenolic flavonoids, Catechins, Proanthocyanidins, Polysaccharides, Tetracyclic triterpenes, Saponins, and Ginsenosides can all aid in the reduction of growth and metastasis of cancer cells and tumors.
I know we all remember how our grandparents ate their greens and veggies as a daily lifestyle habit, and how many lived long lifespans without pain and suffering? Plants have become a missing link for wellness. Make sure you get back on the plant wagon. You will be glad you did.
