Ashitaba: Better than Green Tea
More and more physicians nowadays are becoming agreeable to the wonders of herbal medicine. It’s a guarantee that every medicine prescribed by your regular doctor has an alternative medicine made from organic and natural elements. This is certainly the case for treating cancer: carcinoma and melanoma. There are many other claims of cures using herbs. One of them is the Japanese parsley or the ashitaba plant.
Where Did Ashitaba Come From?
Let me first give you an initial background of ashitaba… (not to be confused with gynura procumbens)
Ashitaba comes with the botanical name Angelica Keiskei Koidzumi and is renowned as the “tomorrow plant” because it has the ability to reproduce green stems and leaf almost every day. We are growing this plant at home and truth be told, we can harvest around three leaves from one plant on a daily basis. This herbaceous plant also grows all year so there’s no worrying about getting less leaves during summer or rainy season.
From its name, you have probably guessed where this greenish yellow vegetable came from. Actually, there are mentions that ashitaba originated from China and passed down further to Japan where it became much popular. It came from Hachi Jo Island where it survives on volcanic rocks and soil with very high salinity environment. Local herbalists of the island have been consuming the leaves of ashitaba as both medicine and vegetable for over a hundred years.
Ashitaba provides the human body with many benefits, as it is rich with vitamins, minerals, proteins and plant fiber. The plant contains high level of chlorophyll and vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 has been recognized for its ability to promote the production of blood cells, increase attention span and concentration, increase the production of growth hormone, and promote the immune system so that it can fight off serious disorder; such as cancer.
Moreover, it secretes a yellowish substance called “chalcone” and a type of mineral that promotes the production of interferon. Chalcones is found to be a potent antioxidant that protects our body’s cells from damage. This is attributed to the aging process and many degenerative diseases including cancer.
On the other hand, interferon is produced naturally in our body albeit in very small quantities. This element is what’s used to treat some types of cancer, like tumors, kidney cancer, multiple myeloma and malignant melanoma.

Ashitaba is great to consider since it have many health benefits especially to those who have cancer.
Yeah. Just to share another new finding, there's a plant now in China called artemenesis (woodworm plant) with scientific name Artemisia Absinthium that's said to cure cancer cells particularly breast cancer but not affect those "clean cells" by 98%. Incredible, right? If you're interested, better check it out as well.
Hi.. I am currently taking ashitaba leaves. 4 leaves 3x a day before meals… ^___^ maganda naman ang effect sa body ko. may nagrecommend lang sa akin na maganda daw yung ashitaba sa tumors and cyst… And auntie ng boyfriend ko nawala ang cyst sa breast after taking ashitaba leaves. May nadetect kase na 3cm nodule sa thyroid ko.. for now benign.. Hoping for good result. ^____^
Wow. Thanks for sharing your testimony here. Hoping for the best. 🙂
Sagot sa lahat ng sakit:
Dami ako nararamdaman before. Sakit ng likod, mga litid ko sa leeg at litid ko sa ulo, name it… yung leeg ko internally parang may mga sugat. Ang aking lalamunan laging may plema…
Lahat ng ito may improvement na. Halos 3 months pa lang ako take ng food supplement na ito pero seem that after 6 months of taking, fully recovered ako sa sakit… Imagine, 10 years po ang back pain ko pero ni minsan hindi nawala ang back pains ko. With what I am taking right now, grabe. Super duper naman na effective ang food supplement and this covered lahat na ng sakit

i just told my friend about ashitaba but wondering where he can buy it, he is from Palestine and wants to try it. How can he buy the product?
He can buy from Amazon webstore or eBay.
Thank you to all who shared their testimony..but may i know where to buy ashitaba?
Are you referring to the plant in pot, the stems, chalcones, ashitaba in tea, or ashitaba capsules?
I wonder why Ashitaba is not promoted on TV or Drugstores because it seems to have a lot of natural benefits and I hope I can see for myself what an Ashitaba plant look like,
It will soon be available in our local drugstores. 🙂 Still working on the documentations.
Where can I buy real ashitava? Thank you and GOD bless
We recommend Kenko to buy ashitaba.
can continuous drinking of ashitaba tea lower the thyroid level or can cause any thyroid problem ??
There haven’t been any studies that show a side effect like this even in isolated cases so I would say probably not.
is there a minimum leaves you take a day?
