What is
Gynostemma
?
Gynostemma is a powerful adaptogenic herb used by the Chinese for centuries. It's grown traditionally in the mountainous region of South Central China. Gynostemma pentaphylactoides is the main effective component of gynostemma pentaphylactoides.
In addition, it also contains sterols, flavonoids, 17 kinds of amino acids such as vitamin C and glutamate and 18 kinds of trace elements such as iron, zinc and copper. Because its acid hydrolysis product and ginsenoside acid hydrolysis product -- ginseng diol have the same physical and chemical properties, so it is called "southern ginseng".
