 Doctors Provide Insights Into How Amazon Power Shake™ Works in Your Body
After years of research and development, the Amazon Power Shake™ was formally launched at the Amazon Herb Summit 2007. At the Summit, a panel of doctors spoke in-depth about this blend. They offered insights into the unique Rainforest botanicals it contains: Maca, Suma, Chuchuhuasi, Muira Puama and Kiwicha. They explained why this Rainforest “power food” is so important for overall health.* Nourishing and Balancing Your Body’s Regulatory System The endocrine system manufactures cells that create and support new life. It regulates hormones and relays chemical messages throughout the body. The glands of the endocrine system include the pineal, hypothalamus, pituitary, thyroid, parathyroids, thymus, adrenals, pancreas, ovaries and testes. Each of these plays a key role in maintaining physical, mental and emotional well-being. “The endocrine glands help us adapt to our ever-changing environment by producing substances called hormones,” points out Dr. Keefa Weatherspoon, ND. “Puberty is a time when the hormonal system goes through a lot of change. Also, as people reach their golden years, the master glands (the pineal, pituitary and hypothalamus) frequently start to calcify, shrink, and malfunction.” Dr. Weatherspoon explained, “Botanicals that help balance the hormonal system are called adaptogenic. They adapt to what your body needs most.
Making sure your adrenal glands are getting the nourishment they need is also important in today’s fast-paced world. “The kidneys are the center of the will and of short term memory,” says Dr. Weatherspoon. “The adrenal glands, located just on top of the kidneys, are involved in what’s called the ‘fight or flight’ syndrome. Most Americans are running on adrenaline. We’re trying to get thirty hours out of a twenty-four hour day. We’ve got too much on our plates, and we don’t know how to find balance.” Once again, Amazon Power Shake™ comes to the rescue. Rainforest ingredients Suma, Maca, Muira Puama and Chuchuhuasi all offer much-needed adrenal support.* Strengthening and Toning Muscles and Nerves Every single one of the pure botanicals in Amazon Power Shake™ has properties which support good muscular and nervous function.*
“Whether you’re an athlete or just live a busy life, Maca can give you strength, endurance and mental clarity,” said Dr. Jim Hawver, NMD. “It’s an excellent energizer for both men and women with a wide array of nutrients.” “Kiwicha is a perfect food,” says Dr. Hawver. “Like Maca and Suma, Kiwicha has a broad array of amino acids and trace minerals. The high protein content in Kiwicha helps build muscle mass and strengthen the organs and glands.” Dr. Jeff Essen, ND, shared, “The word Chuchuhuasi means ‘trembling back’. As a former body worker, I know what muscle spasms feel like under my hands. In my practice today, I work closely with chiropractors. We’ve noticed that when muscles are tonified using formulas containing Chuchuhuasi, less chiropractic work is needed.” Muira Puama is a central nervous system stimulant and tonic. It also invigorates sexual function and helps reduce stress. A 1996 U.S. patent filed on Muira Puama cited long-term use to be effective in increasing lean muscle mass.*
