Tourmaline
Source: Tourmaline (semi precious) stone Amount: 1.20 grams
Tourmaline is a very popular gemstone and collectors mineral. It exists in all colors, and the multicolored stones are unsurpassed in splendor.
Tourmaline is both pyroelectric and piezoelectric. If a specimen is put under a pressure or temperature change, it will generate an electrical
charge.
Tourmaline comes from the Sinhalese word "Turamali" which was given to mixtures of unidentified gem gravels in Ceylon, now Sri Lanka. Tourmaline exerts
a cleansing and liberating energy upon our entire nervous system with a clearing and stabilizing effect. Tourmaline is best known as one of the only
minerals to emit far infrared heat and negative ions. For further reading on far infrared and negative ions, please visit here.

Wood Vinegar
Source: Ubame Oak (Quercus Phillyraeoides) Amount: 1.04 grams
Ubame Oak, Quercus phillyraeoides, is placed in the furnace and heated up to 250 degrees Celsius. The smoke is then condensed into the vinegar. The
next step is to filter the vinegar at least 5 times, to obtain purity, it is then stored for 6 months. The middle layer of the vinegar is then used in
the finished product.
To obtain the powder, the vinegar is then again heated, condensed, and then dried with a special drying machine before our quality inspection is
performed. This process yields a very high concentrated extract with an extremely high level of purity.
Wood vinegar is known to be able to improve our blood circulation. This improved blood circulation can lead to improvement from fatigue, headache,
double vision, blood pressure, arthritis, and many other similar symptoms.

Dextrine
Source: Corn flour Amount: 0.80 grams
Dextrin is a product of starch hydrolysis, a carbohydrate having the same general molecular structure as starch but with a smaller and less complex
molecule with adhesive properties. Its presence are necessary in Sap Sheet only as a filler and to bind other ingredients together.

Bamboo Vinegar
Source: Arrow Bamboo (Pseudosasa Japonica) Amount: 0.60 grams
Arrow bamboo, Pseudosasa Japonica, is placed into the furnace and is heated up to 250 degrees Celsius. The smoke is then condensed into the vinegar.

Dokudami
Source: Houttuynia cordata Amount: 0.20 grams
This plant is native to Japan, Java and Nepal and is found at altitudes of over 6200 feet. It has been proved to contain a variety of flavoids,
flavonoid glycosides (afzerin, quercitrin, isoquercitrin) and pyridine alkaloids. Its essential oil was found to consist mainly of decanal (capry
aldehyd), dodecanal (lauryl aldehyd) and 2-hendecanon (methyl nonyl ketone). It has been recognized for generations for its strong absorption
properties.

Vitamin C
Source: Orange Amount: 0.08 grams
It has long been known that human beings do not produce ascorbic acid (vitamin C).
Below is the action of Vitamin C:
Increases HDL (high density lipoprotein) production. (HDL is able to help absorb fat located in plaque. In the process it changes from a disc shape
to a globular form of HDL, and takes this fat to the liver to be burned.) Decreases the production of lipoprotein (a). Our liver knows that when there is plenty of ascorbate on board, there is no need for high levels
of lipoprotein (a) which is, after all, a repair factor for the cracks in blood vessel walls which come up in the absence of sufficient ascorbate.) Down-regulates cholesterol and triglyceride production in the liver. Lowers blood sugar and insulin requirements. By relaxing the blood vessel walls, lowers blood pressure when hypertension is present. Inhibits inappropriate intravascular clot formation (the final and sometimes deadly event in cases of heart attacks and strokes).

Chitosan
Source: Shell of a crab Amount: 0.04 grams
Chitosan is the result of the biomass research; it is extracted from the shell of a 'crab shrimp' and added to the Sap Sheet.
Chitosan products have been used now for over 30 years by water companies to trap toxins, grease, heavy metals, and oils. It is the second most
plentiful fiber, after cellulose. Chitosan products are also used extensively by the medical profession due to their remarkable ability to promote
wound healing, such as burns and skin inflammation.
Extensive studies have also been carried out to determine its fat binding properties. The results found it to lower LDL (bad) cholesterol by 6% and
enhance the HDL (good) cholesterol by 10%. It has also been successfully marketed as a weight loss supplement.

Loquat Leaf
Source: Loquat leaf (Eriobotrya Japonica) Amount: 0.04 grams
