<\/a>You might not have heard of it, but deep in the heart of Central Asia it is commonly used as a folk medicine and for many centuries. Other factors contributing to the fact that this plant is rather unknown, is that most of the research, articles and books were in Russian language at that time and the fact that is needs very specific and harsh circumstances to grow. Cultivating this plant so far has not been very successful. The origin of this plant is the Altay, the mountain ridge between Russia (Siberia), China and Kazakhstan. It needs very poor, rocky soil, very harsh winters and some altitude to grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Local people have been using this plant for a wide range of issues: weak young children, fragile older people, recovery from illness or infection, after surgery, in times of harsh conditions or stress. One of the main effects is that it contributes to anabolic processes and muscle growth. That is why it has been used in the former USSR to support training in elite athletes. And of course, older people suffering from sarcopenia (= loss of muscle tissue) can also use it to stay healthy for a longer time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n When my athlete and I visited Kazakhstan for competition and training, we started getting interested in this plant and bought it at the market. My athlete is a student of Human Movement Science, One of the topics she studied was the effects exercise for older people, to counteract sarcopenia and falling for the frail elderly. She wrote her bachelor-scription about the components of this plant and their effects on the human (muscle) cell and signalling pathways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This motivated her to produce her own supplement based on Rhaponticum carthamoides of the very best quality available. The process wasn\u2019t easy nor was it fast. The amount of paperwork and quality testing was tremendous, but she persisted and here it is: FLOURISH 580 (we have 580 muscles in our body). <\/p>\n\n\n\n I am proud having contributed a very small part to this and my athlete having the courage to start a company and her first nutritional supplement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So about FLOURISH 580: it contains only Rhaponticum carthamoides extract and the package contains 60 capsules. Dosage is 1 capsule a day, preferably in the morning for 2 months. Elite athletes and individuals in stressful or demanding situations can take two capsules a day. Rhaponticum is an extremely safe product to use and has no known side effects. (2)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Rhaponticum is often regarded as a panacea, a cure for many different diseases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The many different powerful components of Rhaponticum are the reason for its pleiotropic effects, meaning that these different components are able to affect many different signalling pathways within different cells.<\/p>\n\n\n\n FLOURISH 580 has a wide spectrum of potential usage, all well-documented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/a><\/a><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
