Epilobium:
Supports Prostate Health, Anti-Inflammatory, Helps Control Incontinence
Epilobium (Small Flowered Willow Herb) only recently came to the professional's and public's attention, after a lecture by Austrian herbalist Maria Treben. However, her lecture stirred a tremendous demand for the herb throughout Germany and Austria for use by men concerned about the health of their prostate. American demand has grown quickly over the past few years, even in light of little public information about the herb, because both men and women experience its benefits. Until now, there have been few reliable sources for Epilobium, and no convenient full-spectrum forms of the herb.

Anti-Inflammatory Effects
Scientific literature is quickly confirming the actions of Epilobium. In 1991, an article in Plant Medicine1 confirmed its anti-inflammatory effect, and noted it to be "ten times more effective than indomethacin."

Prostate Health
Inhibition of 5 alpha-reductase and aromatase
, which are involved in the etiology of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), was confirmed in several recent articles.2,3 In addition, the anti-infectious activity of a water-alcohol extract of epilobium was shown in vitro (outside the body), in ovo (in an egg) and in vivo (in a living body).4

Helps Control Incontinence
Clinical use has reported reduction in incontinence in both males and females.

Herbal Energies™ Epilobium
Full-Spectrum
Herbal Liquefaction
Extract
BCN's
Liquefied Herbs are prepared using a true Herbal Liquefactionextraction process: a slow, complex, multiphase, unheated extraction process that renders a more complete extraction of the essence of the herbs than any other process. This results in a total liquefication of the herbs, producing a full spectrum herbal product containing all of the botanical materials rather than an extraction which discards much of the herb. This provides a true, balanced and bioavailable herbal product. The secrets of this 16th century processing method were nearly lost and have been perfected by few practitioners. By using this time-honored, slow and labor-intensive method, we are uniquely able to extract not only the tannins and essential oils, but also the very important macro-minerals and mineral salts that are locked in the fibers of the botanicals used to create our superior quality liquefied herbals.

Economical to use: The complete liquefication process makes
BCN's Herbal Energies™ products economical and easy to use, since all our products are formulated using different concentration levels to yield a common, full-strength suggested use level of 5-to-10 drops, versus the 30 drops typically recommended for products produced by other processes.

Suggested Use: As a dietary supplement, take 5-to-10 drops, two times per day on an empty stomach, or as directed by your qualified health consultant. Placing the drops under the tongue produces excellent absorption.

This product is not recommended for use by young children without a doctor's supervision, or by pregnant or nursing mothers.

A note regarding ethanol.
Non-alcohol based herbal extracts are less stable, typically do not remain properly in suspension, and may contain bacteria. (Even many alcohol-based products may contain bacteria, or contain too little alcohol to prevent contamination after opening.) BCN's Herbal Energies liquefied herbal products are processed by a unique light-free, low-oxygen exposure method that virtually eliminates deterioration of the herbal material and any bacteria growth. During processing, ethanol is a solvent, extracting part of the herb, with water extracting the balance, creating a full-spectrum herbal. After processing, ethanol is used as a preservative, and to prevent contamination by users. Glycerin-based products offer no protection, and many people put the dropper into their mouth, then back into the bottle.

This combination of the unique preparation process and appropriate levels of ethanol also accounts for the unusually long, stable expected shelf life of this product, under normal storage conditions. The ethanol used in Herbal Energies™ Herbal Liquefactionextraction products is mild in taste, blending well with the herbal flavors.

Reducing the alcohol content: Although the amount of alcohol per dose is very small, for people who object to the use of alcohol the answer is simple. Put the herb drops on top of a few ounces of hot, not boiling, water and let stand uncovered for about 2 minutes. Most, if not all of the alcohol will evaporate, infusing the herb into the water. (Always put the herbs into the water. Do NOT pour the water over the herbs.)
