“THE JET SET”
Joi, Ese, & Top
These herbal capsule blends are specially formulated for our nervous systems. I would classify Joi, Top, & Ese as fine-tuning tools. I use them alongside the top 5 foundational foods. I would not personally use one of these in place of a foundational food. Each of these is formulated for three specific and different purposes though each nourishes our nervous systems. They feed processes related to focus and concentration. Focus and concentration come from the property we might call mental stillness, which essentially barricades us against things that might otherwise disturb and distract us, like pain. A sill and focused mind let us concentrate keenly during periods of activity, yet sleep peacefully during periods of rest.
JOI
This is a formula that nourishes the nervous system with special emphasis on pain and discomfort in the joints, bones, and muscles. These whole food herbs allow the body to reduce or eliminate the pain of joint, bone and muscle related ailments and diseases while nourishing the body systems to restore balance. The name JOI is short for joints, which helps us remove its function. Personally, I use it for pain in my knees, elbows, and wrists caused by overstressing these joints from dancing and chasing after my two young girls.
This formula contains Siberian Ginseng, White Willow Bark, Mint, Silver Flower, Yeuan Wu Root, Chuan Xiong Root, Angelica Root & Golden Bell Fruit. Other ingredients: Vegetable-based capsule.
ESE
This formula nourishes the nervous system as it regulates the body’s response to stress. Its calming effect allows for relief from restlessness, anxiety, and sleeplessness. Better rested, the body is more able to deal with stress, and a clearer mind will enhance the powers of concentration. It basically helps our though messages get to where they are meant to go. It doesn’t create neurotransmitters but feeds them. Can be used for hyperactive children or nervous adults or just about anyone with a stressful lifestyle- in other words, just about everybody! But remember, this is not a medicine. It is a food. Like all of these formulas, it is not intended to replace your medical doctor’s instructions (Personally I’m a bit of a rebel…). Sometimes, my mind can’t stop when its time to go to sleep. ESE is a good addition to a night time cup of Calli Night to ensure a good quality sleep. It’s also good for memory. Ese is a great food for students to take while studying or just prior to taking exams. A good way to remember its function is to associate ESE with how it helps us beat “ese”. This formula contains Cassia Tora Seed, Gou Teng, Ji Tsau Herb, Sophora Flower, Yeuan Wu Root, Orange Peel and Pinelliae Root. Other ingredients: Vegetable based capsule.
TOP
This is a nourishing formula for pain relief and systemically improved concentration. These herbs are formulated to nourish the nervous system and help the body achieve relief from headaches and other forms of pain, without numbing the senses or dulling the powers of concentration as most other pain relievers do. This formula encourages the body to actually enhance the powers of concentration as it eliminates pain. Personally, you don’t need to be in pain to use this formula. I use it more for its ability to enhance my concentration and focus whether I have pain or not. I am easily distracted and sometimes I need an extra help to bring me back to the task at hand. I also Use it to help me achieve emotional balance. It can sometimes help us get through those “blue” periods of life that we cannot avoid. A good way to remember its function is to associate it with the TOP of your body. It is food for the brain.
This formula contains Mint, Silver Flower, Chuan Xiong Root, Yeuan Wu Root, Angelica Root, Golden Bell Fruit, Ji Tsau Herb and White Willow Bark. Other ingredients: Vegetable-based capsule.
The JOI, ESE, & TOP formulas are a unique blend of herb foods, which the Chinese have traditionally eaten to enhance an overall sense of well-being. It is recommended that these three formulas should be eaten together because they compliment each other. Again, Dr. Chen’s formulations of these three products are very important. If you note the ingredients, you will see some of the same herbs used. But, the proportion and combining have been done by the master himself. Dr. Chen’s expertise her can only be appreciated by those who eat these special foods.
In a nutshell, the JET SET helps to balance us more mentally and spiritually and helps us to be more in harmony with those around us and with nature.
