Ashitaba (Angelica keiskei), literally translated as "Tomorrow’s Leaf," is a resilient perennial herb native to the rich, volcanic soil of the Izu Islands in Japan. It earned its name due to its legendary regenerative capabilities; if a leaf is harvested today, a new sprout appears tomorrow. Historically, it was consumed by the inhabitants of the "Longevity Islands" (Hachijo-jima) to promote vitality and was even mentioned in Ming Dynasty medicinal texts as a "sovereign herb" for purifying the blood and strengthening the "Qi."

What sets Ashitaba apart from almost any other botanical is its thick, golden sap known as Chalcones. These rare flavonoids (specifically Xanthoangelol and 4-hydroxyderricin) are concentrated in the stem and roots. Unlike common green tea or berry antioxidants, chalcones are potent "biological response modifiers" that support metabolic health, stimulate Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), and possess unique anti-aging properties at the cellular level. This makes Ashitaba a premier choice for longevity protocols and neurological health.

• Exclusive Chalcone Content: Contains high levels of Xanthoangelol, which has been scientifically studied for its ability to regulate adiponectin, helping the body manage fat metabolism and improve insulin sensitivity.
• Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) Support: Research suggests that Ashitaba compounds can stimulate the production of NGF, a protein essential for the survival and growth of neurons, supporting long-term brain health.
• Potent Alkalizer & Detoxifier: Rich in chlorophyll and Vitamin B12 (rare for a plant), it helps balance blood pH and supports the liver in neutralizing environmental toxins.
• Autophagy Promotion: Contains the natural flavonoid 4,4'-dimethoxychalcone (DMC), which has gained international attention for its ability to trigger "cellular cleanup" (autophagy), potentially slowing the aging process.
