Ashitaba – Product Details

Ashitaba, known as “Tomorrow’s Leaf” for its rapid regrowth, is an edible plant that’s part of the Angelica family. Used for centuries in both Japanese and Eastern medicine, Ashitaba is known for its anti-aging and beautifying properties. It’s also a whole-food source of vitamin B (which is rare in many plants!) and has been studied for its ability to stimulate Nerve Growth Hormone, which is thought to play a key role in longevity. 

In addition to being a rich source of vitamin B, our Ashitaba is a plant that aims to support a clear complexion and digestive health. It’s also considered to be a “Shen” tonic, meaning that it promotes spiritual well-being. Traditionally, Ashitaba has been used to treat a number of health conditions, including heartburn, high blood pressure, and stomach ulcers. Ashitaba contains a compound called Chalcones, which may support the healthy regeneration of cells.

Ingredients: 4:1 cold water extract powder of Ashitaba leaf and stem.
