A Note from

Owner of Momentum98
These are the original
Chinese herbal products that were introduced to the West shortly after
Nixon opened up
Mainland China for trade in the early 1980s. We have been selling
Dragon Eggs since 1984! (One of our very first lines
of supplements!)
Dragon Eggs
were introduced in the United States in the early 1980s. I personally
discovered them in 1983 when I was at the
National Nutritional Foods Association show in Denver,
Colorado. For the decade prior to that, I was forced to be very strict
with my diet because my body had a delicate balance.
Fasting was one of the things that always helped
balance me. Personally, I have found the Dragon Eggs Chinese herbal
formulas were the first products I found that truly balanced my
energies. Nothing balanced me like some of their formulas.
Many of the Dragon
Eggs herbal formulas are currently being held in storage pending an
agreement between the FDA, the State of California, and other
governmental agencies that are questioning the safety of these
herbal formulas which we have been selling since 1984.
From what I can
gather, the government wanted each ingredient tested, etc, and wanted a
large sum of money for every herb contained in these bottles, which
makes it an unwise business decision to continue selling these
products unless some kind of agreement can be reached about the
safety of these herbs. I guess you can call it Governmental Red
Tape, or even intervention.
Tang Kwei
This is for calm
focused energy especially geared to women. It is know for refining the qualities of
love and attention for smooth functioning in emotionally
draining circumstances. It can help create a serene contentment
while actively addressing life. It is known for building
central processes. It is especially helpful when used before
menstruation begins.
Tang Kwei is
sometimes called "ginseng for women". It is considered the most
important herb for women in Chinese Medicine. It has been used
for centuries to promote a smooth, regular menstrual cycles. It
is
also
know for strengthening the heart and reducing tension
through its tranquilizing properties.

Four Ginsengs
contains shiu chu and kirin panax ginsengs, prince ginseng, tienchi
ginseng, and siberian ginseng (an adaptogen, which is not a true
"ginseng.") It also
contains codonopsis, a well-known ginseng substitute also known as
"poor man's ginseng." Other ginseng like herbs included in the
formula are: adenophora, red sage root, and scrophularia.
Also included are the 4 famous soup herbs: rehmannia, peony root,
tang kuei & ligusticum, dragon brew & 18 other herbs.
This herbal tablet
is an excellent way to take ginseng because the combined yin effect
of all the other herbs tends to balance the yang of
the ginseng, which has a stimulating, tonic effect on the
body's chi.

with Rehmannia, peony root & ligusticum creates the famous
traditional Chinese herbal preparation: "Soup of the Four Things."
This particular
combination of four herbs, used by women for many centuries for a
variety of womens health concerns., is the basis for the Woman's
Longevity formula.
This balanced
formula is suitable for long-term use by women of all ages as well as
men.
Some prefer to use Woman's Longevity in warmer months, and add For
Ginsengs in colder weather.
A little history on Dragon Brew
Dragon Brew was
one of the original tonic drinks introduced in the US in the early
1980's. This product
was actually discontinued by the Manufacturer in 2001 since it was too
difficult to make it with the ingredient known as jin culture, which is
another name for kombucha. What is interesting is that since the
early 1980's Dragon Brew contained this jin culture, which became a
cultural phenomena in the middle 1990's. We still have many books
available on Kombucha and also have a number of kombucha products
available. Dragon Brew was a wonderful herbal tonic that
was much more than just kombucha.
