|
Jergon sacha has become very popular in Peruvian herbal
medicine where it is being used for many purposes.
Traditional Uses:* for snakebite; for viral infections
(HIV, hepatitis, whooping cough, influenza, parvovirus, and others); for upper
respiratory problems (cough, bronchitis, asthma, etc.); for spider, bee,
scorpion, and other venomous insect bites; as a topical wound healer
Raintree Nutrition's Jergon Sacha extract is made with 40%
alcohol to extract and preserve the active ingredients found in this amazing
plant. The extraction methods used provides the equivalent of approximately 600
mgs of Jergon Sacha root per milliliter of extract - resulting in a highly
potent concentrated extract rich in active and beneficial phytochemicals which
occur naturally in this plant.
Wildharvesting this important rainforest plant is not
achieved sustainably in the wild since the root must be harvested. This is why
Raintree has not offered this plant in the past. Raintree's new supply of Jergon
Sacha root comes from the high jungle of Peru where new organic cultivation
programs with medicinal plants are replacing old coca plantations and providing
new sources of income for poor farmers on their existing lands.
