Main properties

  • general stimulant, immunostimulant, nervous stimulant, sexual tonic :

    giant Sequoia bud macerate stimulates the adrenal glands by increasing 17-ketosteroids. This makes it a general stimulant on several levels, both physical and psychological. It is first and foremost a sexual stimulant: it is an anti-senescent of the sexual organs which promotes the proper functioning of the prostate, and therefore better urinary comfort. It also has an anti-inflammatory action. It also stimulates the functioning of the testicles, improves fertility and rebalances spermatogenesis. Quite specific to men, it still works in women, particularly in cases of fibroids. It is then a nerve stimulant which helps improve cognitive functions. Finally, it is an immunity booster.

  • protector of the osteoarticular system, remineralizing :

    the stimulating action of Giant Sequoia is also exerted at the osteoblastic level. It promotes remineralization, strengthens the bone structure, and helps to soften tendons and ligaments. It is particularly a useful supplement in cases of female osteoporosis of a hormonal nature. It is indicated in brittle bone disease because it reduces the risk of spontaneous fractures.
