Larrea Tridentata
Larrea tridentata has been shown throughout medical history and Native-American tradition to produce significant positive immune support and help with pain. The historical use of the plant prompted the research and development process by LarreaRx.
Additionally, published research performed at several well-known medical research institutions, such as the Stanford University School of Medicine1, the University of Berne (Switzerland), The Johns Hopkins University2, and King's College London, have demonstrated that chemical compounds present in the Larrea plant do possess health enhancing properties.
People with various immune challenges, including those viral in nature, have sought the extract of Larrea. It is good to have on hand, not only for colds & flu, but for many other active invaders. There are pesky viruses, fungi, etc., at work in most of us beyond what you may know.
For example, the herpes virus can cause cold sores, a.k.a. fever blisters, as well as "shingles", an outbreak of blisters on the skin and/or pain in the nerves. It has also been linked with Alzheimer's, lupus, MS, some forms of cancer, "Epstein-Barr", chronic fatigue and other problems. Genital herpes can be very bothersome.
NOTE: Virtually EVERYONE has at least one type of Herpes virus, and most people have several. They may be working behind the scenes, altering and destroying cells, waiting to manifest symptoms later when the immune system is weaker. Also a majority of people have an overgrowth of Candida Albicans and other yeast stressing the body.
Another Name For Larrea -- "SHEGOI"
Native American Indians of the southwest called Larrea, "Shegoi", meaning "Mother of all plants". It was revered as their most important plant medicine, naming it their "Medicine Chest". This plant plays a prominent role in the creation stories of the Pima tribe. They believe that Larrea was the first plant placed on the Earth by the creator, shortly after Earth itself was created.
As it turns out, modern science has, in a way, confirmed the legend of the Pimas. Recently, it has been verified that Larrea is indeed among the oldest living plants in the world. Some currently living Larrea plants actually started growing more than 11,000 years ago, shortly after the glaciers retreated during the last ice age.
Larrea calls Death Valley and other hot, dry deserts in the southwest U.S. it's home. The plant has perfectly adapted to survive for many thousands of years in severe conditions that can greatly challenge the survival of a human within just hours. This plant indeed has something that we can use for better survival.
