ANTI-CANCER SUBSTANCE; From Ginseng

By Kim Tae-gyu

Korean scientists have succeeded in producing a cancer-fighting agent from ginseng effective against a wide variety of cancers while posing little threat to the human body.

The IL HWA Central Research Institute recently announced it had extracted saponin from ginseng, a white cucumber-shaped perennial shrub of Korea, and converted it into a new substance, named IH-901, which kills cancer cells.

``Up to now saponin is believed to tackle cancer but the real secret was in IH-901, which is produced from saponin in the intestine. We have discovered a way to make IH-901 with microorganisms outside the human body,'' said Ilhwa researcher Sung Jong-hwan.

Sung added that a joint research team formed between local universities and private firms had found IH-901 to be about twice as powerful as current anti-cancer drugs.

The Seoul National University Cancer Research Institute also supported the benefits of IH-901, as recent tests of malignant tumors in the liver and stomach have shown the agent destroys cancer cells quickly with little affect on healthy cells and tissues.

Another merit of IH-901 is that it rarely triggers side-effects typical to cancer chemotherapy like hair loss, nausea and vomiting, mouth sores and loss of appetite.

"Medicine with IH-901 will provide epoch-making cancer treatments in the years to come since an intake of conventional anti-cancer drugs combined with IH-901 is also effective with minimal side-effects,'' Sung claimed.

He said the joint research team will jumpstart clinical tests as soon as it obtains a go-ahead from the government, possibly within the year, with the aim of commercially launching IH-901 medicines by 2007.

IL HWA has already registered patents in the United States, Canada and South Korea.

TESTIMONIALS

IL HWA GINSENG EXTRACT REGAINS MY VITALITY

In the May 1990 issue of Il Hwa Health News, I wrote about my discomfort as a diabetic, namely, that I could not sleep well, that I had to go on a diet and that I often experienced feeling of hunger and frequent urinating during night time. After taking a spoonful of Il Hwa Extract twice a day for about six months, the discomfort vanished away. My blood sugar came into a normal range, and I felt much stronger.

Since then, I had increased my Il Hwa Ginseng Extract intake to a small measuring spoon three times daily. Aside from diabetes, I also had asthma for about thirty years and I had this serious attack from 1987 to 1989. I must share this with you, that since I took Il Hwa Ginseng Extract, I have not had any serious attack of asthma. Of course, I am still taking a very minimal maintenance daily but this is unlike before taking Il Hwa ginseng when I used to take a long list of medicines daily. I now enjoy my food. I practically never have to go on a diet except for high sugar foods. More than ever, I am also enjoying my sports, I now jog, walk regularly an hour a day and participate in a weekly bowling tournament. I am very sure Il Hwa Extract has significantly contributed to my regained vitality.

IL HWA GINSENG MAKES ME STRONGER

This is to share with you my wonderful experience with Il Hwa Ginseng. I began using Ginseng Extract before Christmas of 1989. I took this extract twice a day before breakfast and before sleeping. After a month of use, I noticed that I was more relaxed, slept well and felt much stronger. Now, my blood sugar ranges from 140-155 kg/dl which is about 5 to 20 units lower than that which my endocrinologist allows me to go. I am now relieved from frequent urinating at night and very seldom experienced the frequent feeling of hunger. I am now eating more food than before and I am now enjoying a 2-kilogram increase in my body weight.

GINSENG FOR MODERN WORLD

Ginseng and Exercise

by: Edwin Caturan

Nowadays, people are passionate to go to a gym to work out for fitness and health. Yes, people these days are hooked into this fitness fad including myself.
What benefits can we get out of it? To me, I work out for two good reasons: to stay healthy and stay in shape. As exercise is key factor to both, this means staying healthy goes with staying in shape. But, is staying in shape a sign of good health? It’s relatively yes and no.

Exercise is not enough
Believe it or not, this is certainly correct. You can avoid health-risk factors like smoking, drinking, and salty foods but you can't stay away from greenhouse gases that go with conurbation developments. Exercise itself is frivolous when you breathe nothing but filthy air. And this is where ginseng comes into play. When you take ginseng, all the wastes and bad elements that your body accumulated are detoxified, thus increasing oxygen supply to our body.
This claim is validated by the fact that I'm a ginseng user myself - not to mention being in the salesfront of the leading ginseng importer in the country, Il Hwa Philippines. I sell ginseng not just for the art of selling but also to share with people the good news and secret of staying healthy with Il Hwa Korean Ginseng. To further my claim I will expound more about Korean ginseng.

What is Ginseng?
Ginseng is a root that is being used in the Far East to combat weakness and provide extra energy. Early Native Americans used ginseng for stomach and breathing disorders and neck pain. Russian scientists claim stimulated physical and mental activity, improved endocrine activity and a helpful effect on the sex glands. It is used to enhance athletic performance and reduce fatigue by sparing glycogen (the form of sugar stored in the liver and muscle cells) by using fatty acids for energy. Ginseng is also a classic Chinese aphrodisiac and fertility herb. It helps reduce stress and bring energy. For women, ginseng helps to balance their menstrual cycle. For men, ginseng helps impotence issues.
High doses may protect against the harmful effects of radiation and reduce inflammation. It helps people with diabetes because it reduces the hormone cortisol in the blood and stops it from interfering with insulin. If you have hypoglycemia, you should avoid large doses.
Unlike energy drinks and caffeine that make you fallaciously energetic, ginseng is subtle and will reduce energy blockage. Ginseng helps increase the flow of chi (energy) thus making it a superb.

In general, Ginseng is an undoubted commodity that helps with a wide variety of health issues - from cardiovascular health to fighting off illness to lessening the effects of aging. Ginseng has no negative side effect so there’s nothing to worry about. Ginseng comes in granules, capsule, and extract forms. Authentic Korean ginseng products are available at any retail outlets of Il Hwa Philippines.

Facts About Ginseng

Ginseng possesses the properties of invigorating physical power, regulating the conditions of the spleen and relaxing the stress on the heart.

Ginseng is the primary medicine to be administered for promoting vitality of the five viscera (liver, heart, lungs, kidney and spleen), and that it helps to restore composure, remove causes of illness to the five viscera, improve eyesight, accelerate learning, quiet nerves and promote longevity when consumed over a long period of time.

Ginseng is naturally white or off-white when harvested. The manner in which it is then dried determines the color. In ancient times, red ginseng was ginseng which had been dried in the sun.
In modern times, red ginseng is often steamed during processing, which has the similar effect of changing the color to red. In both cases, this is probably due to the caramelizing of sugars in the root. - dodong flores
