From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jiaogulan
- Jiaogulan is best known as an herbal medicine reputed to have powerful antioxidant and adaptogenic effects that increase longevity. Jiaogulan is consumed as a tea, and is also available as an alcohol extract and in capsule or pill form. It is known as an adaptogen and antioxidant and has been found to increase superoxide dismutase (SOD) which is a powerful endogenous cellular antioxidant. Until recently it was a locally known herb used primarily in regions of southern China. It is described by the local inhabitants as the immortality herb, because people within the Guizhou Province, where jiaogulan tea is drunk regularly, have a history of living to a very old age.
There are many places one can order Jiaogulan online. For Freeze-dried Jiaogulan and Encapsulated Jiaogulan see NutraThai.net.
