Cistanche Salsa 4:1 P.E.
Cistanche Salsa 4:1 P.E. is an extract of the Cistanche Salsa plant, which is a type of holoparasitic desert plant that grows in dry conditions around the world. The plant lacks chlorophyll and obtains nutrients and water from the host plants whose roots they parasitize.
Cistanche Salsa 4:1 P.E. is believed to have numerous health benefits, including supporting a healthy immune system, brain health, and mental performance, as well as providing erection support, testosterone, and libido. However, most of the research conducted on Cistanche Salsa 4:1 P.E. has been in mice or rats, so human trials are needed to support these benefits further.
One study found that Cistanche Salsa extract enhanced antibody production in human lymph node lymphocytes, especially those of IgM and IgG classes. Another study found that Cistanche armena, an endemic species from Armenia, contains nine compounds belonging to the phenylethanoid glycosides, which have significant effects in treating kidney deficiency.
The recommended dosage of Cistanche Salsa 4:1 P.E. is not clear, but a healthy daily dose of cistanche extract powder is one-to-two grams, or one-half to one teaspoon. The dosage may vary depending on the specific product and the individual’s health condition.
