• Antisenescence to males (jing tonic); 17 ketosteroid precursor, improving neuro-sexual functional syndromes
• Osteopenia and osteoporosis; increases osteoblastic activity and is a precursor to estrogen
• Adrenal tonic; use lower doses for women
Sequoia gigantea (Giant redwood) young shoots
Therapeutic actions:
• Sequoia gigantea therapeutic activity focuses both at the osteo-articular and nervous system.
• Its main site of action is on the glandular and nervous system.
• Adrenal tonic (use lower doses for women).
• Efficient antisenescent in elderly, acting on a geriatric plane increasing the physical and moral force.
• It is a sexual tonic - male rejuvenator (reequilibrate spermatogenesis - precursor for the 17-ketosteroids), it stimulates immunity and delays aging both at the sexual level and in general.
• By its endocrine mobilisation it has a tonic action at the intellectual level (aged brain) and an overall eutrophic action (relative to a good nutrition performance, in a normal state).
• It is a mental and general tonifying remedy, acting slowly but in depth; it needs to be taken for some time to see permanent effects.
• Sequoia gigantea acts as a powerful hepatic drainer, useful for a congested liver.
• Musculoskeletal: Stimulates the metabolism of the osteoblasts, enhancing mineralisation and creating a better quality bone tissue.
Clinical indications:
• Musculoskeletal: Sequoia gigantea is a useful complement for women and men in cases of osteoporosis /osteopenia. Through the stimulation of the osteoblastic activity it works on brittle bone disease (osteogenesis imperfecta, Porak and Durante disease, Lobstein disease, sclerotic blue illness). Responsible for spontaneous fractures. It consolidates fractures by ensuring a better mineralisation and a better vitality of the bone thread. It also contributes to making tendons and ligaments flexible.
• Decalcification.
• Uro-genital: Sequoia gigantea is also a prostate (adenoma) remedy. It rebalances the prostate thus assuring an appreciable urinary comfort. Chronic prostatitis. Prostate hypertrophy & adenoma (improves urinary comfort by decongesting and shrinking the prostate) but not for prostate cancer.
• Sequoia gigantea works on spermatogenesis (stimulates) and on neurosexual functional syndromes. It is logical to think that it constitutes an exceptional body tonic, for women as well as for men.
• Other: Uterine fibroids, dysmenorrhoea.
Consider in combination with:
• Rosmarinus officinalis, for liver drainage
• Secale cereale, to lower PSA
• Quercus robur, Betula pubescens, male senescence
• Ribes nigrum, prostatitis
• Vaccinium vitis-idaea, Rubus fructicosus, osteoporosis
• Ribes nigrum, Rubus fructicosus, Alnus incana, uterine fibroids
• Olea europaea, Alnus glutinosa, arteriosclerosis
0.05 ml (extract 1:20 …. 2.5 mg )
Adults and children > 12 years
• Depending on the patient and the problem being treated, 5-10 drops daily are recommended.
• To start with, 5 drops should be taken; this dose can be increased by one drop daily to reach a maximum of 15-20 drops daily, until the required and stable result is acquired. The dosage is then maintained for the remainder of the treatment period.
• The length of the treatment depends on the health problem and the gemmotherapy remedy used. Normally it is recommended that the treatment be continued for three (3) months. The treatment should last for a minimum of three weeks and can be repeated several times, allowing for example a treatment-free week between each course.
• One or two remedies, the most applicable, can be combined; more are not usually necessary. However, the complexes have the advantage of combining several extracts in one formula, thus facilitating the treatment. A complex may, if considered necessary, be combined with another complex or individual bud extract.
Pregnant women should avoid taking bud extracts with hormonal action like Quercus robur (Oak), Rubus idaeus (Raspberry), Sequoia gigantea (Giant redwood), Vaccinium vitis-idaea (Cowberry). Clinical experience:
• Avoid taking in the evening because it can delay, even hinder, falling asleep.
• Often administered in lower doses for women.
