GIN-CHIA
Gin-Chia: Nature's Energy Booster!
Centuries ago, the great American Indian civilizations had
their own form of the Pony Express. However, instead of men
riding horses at full gallop for 20 miles and then changing
steeds, the Indians ran the distance themselves and then passed
their package to another man. Each of the runners carried a
small pouch containing a provision that they ate on the run to
give them the energy and stamina necessary to run their
distance.
They often called it "running food" because of its ability to
increase endurance. It contains neither caffeine nor any other
artificial stimulant; on the contrary, it's 100% natural and
proven to be one of the richest plant sources of protein.
Chia
This substance is none other than Chia Salvia Columbariae, or
"Chia seed". Chia is a member of the mint family and grows
naturally from the Mojave Desert all the way down into
Argentina. For centuries, Chia was of great economic importance
to Native Americans of the Southwest and California coast. It
was a major food crop of the Aztecs. The roasted seeds were
mixed with water and eaten as gruel or ground into flour, called
pinole, for baking. Indians also placed the seeds in water to
make poultices and beverages. One tablespoon of Chia seeds mixed
in water was reputed to be sufficient nutrition to sustain a man
on a forced march for 24 hours. An infusion of the seeds was
valued by Spanish Missionaries as a fever remedy and as a
poultice for gunshot wounds. Today, long distance hikers eat
Chia seeds to provide energy.
According to a study conducted by the University of Arizona in
2001, Chia possesses the highest percentage of the
polyunsaturated fatty acids, a-linolenic and linoleic (i.e.
83.2%), of all crops. It is a great source of Omega-3 fatty
acids, natural antioxidants and dietetic fiber. This same study
also showed that the protein content of Chia is higher than
other nutritional grains. Compare Chia's 19-23% protein to wheat
(14%), corn (14%), rice (8.5%), oats (15.3%), and barley (9.2%).
And, unlike these other grains, it is a complete protein,
meaning that it has the appropriate balance of all essential
amino acids. Chia seed is also a good source of B vitamins,
calcium, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, and copper.
Ginseng
"Ginseng" is said to mean 'the wonder of the world.' The roots
are called by the natives of China, Jin-chen, meaning 'like a
man,' in reference to their resemblance to the human form. The
American Indian name for the plant, garantoquen, has the same
meaning. It is held in such esteem by the natives of China, that
it is included as a necessity in all their best herbal
combinations. The prepared root is chewed to increase vitality
and to remove both mental and bodily fatigue.
