Exploring Ingredients: More About Jason Winters Supplements

We previously explored some of the different types of herbs that can be found in Jason Winters supplements.

But that was only the tip of the iceberg – there are many more herbs, minerals and other useful ingredients we use to craft each supplement.

Supplements are a great way to ingest nutrients that most people don’t normally get from their daily diet. They’re also helpful for increasing the amount of a mineral or nutrient that your body might have a deficiency of.

From common herbs you see every day to ingredients you probably didn’t think you’d ever try, our supplements are packed with the right ingredients to create the perfect blend. Each supplement has its own purpose for the body, from increasing your fiber intake to potentially giving you more, natural energy.

Here’s more about what you can find in our supplements:

Spice Things Up with Capsicum

Capsicum might sound like an ingredient that you can’t find everywhere, but it’s really just a fancy word for cayenne pepper.

Peppers are incredibly healthy for a number of reasons. Aside from the fact that they’re veggies and have many of the vitamins you’d get from other types of vegetables, peppers also have anti-inflammatory agents and are great for the immune system.

Our Tribalene supplement contains the same ingredients as our Jason Winters Herbal tea, but in pill form – and we’ve also added some capsicum to help with digestion.

Replace Fish with Krill

No, krill is not an herb – but it’s an important part of our Krill Oil supplement.

Krill might not sound appetizing, but they share just about every nutritious aspect with fish. They’re an excellent source of Omega-3, 6 and 9 fatty acids, and if you’ve ever taken fish oil supplements, then you know what the appeal is.

Omega-3 has been talked about for helping with depression, controlling triglyceride levels and helping with arthritis. Like everything else, this isn’t great in excess – so our supplement is carefully measured.

One positive aspect of out Krill Oil supplement is that the capsules don’t contain the same heavy metal contents found in many other fish oil pills. Because of the nature of krill, they’re a safer source of fatty acids.

A Pinch of Parsley

You’ve heard of parsley, a leaf widely used to spice up common meals. You probably didn’t know that parsley has its own slew of potential health benefits – and you don’t even need to have very much parsley to get them.

Parsley might be great for detoxing since its full of antioxidants, essential oils and plenty of other nutrients.

Sir Jason combined parsley with other complimentary herbs and minerals in his Golden Lion supplement. This is one of our more popular supplements, and parsley is just part of the reason why!

Add some Flaxseed

Seed oil is getting more popular in diets, but there might not be a seed oil better than flaxseed oil. While there is still plenty of research to be done on the seed, it is widely discussed that flaxseed may help reduce the risks of heart disease, strokes and even cancer.

Flaxseed oil is just a concentrated version of flaxseed, and flaxseed is already considered a super food! While many health benefits haven’t been researched enough, we do know that flaxseed contains fiber, protein, vitamin B1 and B6, Omega-3 fatty acids, calcium, iron and potassium, among many other nutrients and minerals. With that much going on, it’s easy to see why we offer an entire supplement around the super food!

Get Wild with Oats

Another ingredient found in our popular Golden Lion supplement, wild oats don’t really seem like much until you break them down. Avena Sativa, also known by the name “wild oats” or “common oats,” is a fiber-rich plant that helps with reducing cholesterol.

Aside from reducing cholesterol, some people even say that regular ingestion of wild oats makes them feel younger and more energetic. This is an important part of our Golden Lion supplement, a supplement that is intended to help people get the most out of their life by being full of energy, just like the fabled Golden Lion!

Stay Healthy with Selenium

A mineral that doesn’t get enough attention, selenium is commonly found in healthy soil and certain foods. For years nobody knew what the benefits of selenium were, but studies have shown that selenium may play a large role in preventing illnesses and keeping the body healthy.

Combined with the other ingredients in our Xian supplement, the effects can possibly help people stay healthy, even as they age.

Psyllium – The Super Fiber

There are plenty of benefits that experts expect that psyllium offers, and probably many more that nobody has spent time researching. But one thing is clear: psyllium is stuffed full of fiber.

Fiber is critical for helping the digestive system stay healthy. But plenty of people don’t get enough fiber in their daily diet. Our Fiber Supplement powder gives you enough psyllium and fiber to kickstart the digestive system, helping with constipation without irritating the body.

 

We’ve touched on just a few of the wonderful ingredients available in Jason Winters natural supplements, and we’ll discuss more in future blogs to come. We invite you to try any of the wide array of JW Supplements for yourself and see why people worldwide have been enjoying our products for almost 40 years!

Does Green Tea Contain Caffeine?

Tea is already the most popular beverage in the world, and many people around the world are continuing to introduce tea into their daily routine. Many green tea drinkers enjoy the brew for its health benefits and great flavor.

For others, green tea is an eventual replacement for coffee.

If green tea is being used as a replacement for coffee, it begs the question: is there caffeine in all green tea?
Sure, you probably know that whatever green tea you’re drinking contains caffeine – albeit less than the standard cup of coffee. But does all green tea contain caffeine?

Know What You’re Drinking

If you’re wondering if your green tea contains caffeine, the answer is yes.

There are many myths out there surrounding green tea, and somehow the myth that some types of green tea don’t contain caffeine started.

Unfortunately for those who have been using green tea as a caffeine-free drink, this myth is completely false.

Caffeine is one of the many natural components of green tea, along with many other elements that have wonderful properties for your body. Although green tea contains naturally occurring caffeine, the caffeine levels found are much less than you’d get in other drinks.

You can expect to get around 25 milligrams of caffeine in each cup you make. For comparison, a cup of black tea has nearly double that amount and a cup of coffee up to 8x the caffeine.

Even decaffeinated green tea is going to contain trace levels of caffeine. If you’re a regular tea or coffee drinker, you’ll notice that there’s less caffeine in this type of blend. However, if you want to avoid the caffeine entirely, decaffeinated teas aren’t the answer. Also, during the decaffeination process, most of the good properties in the tea, are usually being deluded.

While green tea might not be caffeine free, it’s certainly the least caffeinated of most other popular teas. However, it still contains caffeine.

For those looking for a caffeine-free alternative to tea, look no further than herbal blends.

Herbal Blends vs. Green Tea

Green tea comes from the leaf from the Camellia sinesis plant. Black tea also comes from the same leaf, but the preparation is different. This is important to know since the C. sinesis plant is where the caffeine comes from.

This means that other herbs can be naturally caffeine-free, and there are plenty of drink options for these herbs.

While tea means that it comes from the C. sinesis, there are other herbs that are delicious when steeped and imbibed. These are called herbal blends, usually because they’re made up from an assortment of herbs that work well together.

These herbal blends will also often include green tea in them, but not all contain tea. But because green tea is just one of the many ingredients, caffeine levels may tend to be lower.

The nice thing about green tea is that it has low levels of caffeine to begin with, so those looking to cut their caffeine levels may find that herbal blends are ideal for them.

When drinking teas, it’s important to understand that there’s no guarantee that your tea will be caffeine-free. Unless what you’re drinking is only made up of herbs that don’t have naturally occurring green tea, you should assume that there’s caffeine in your cup.

It’s good to note, Sir Jason Winter’s 5 oz Herbal Tea, contains zero caffeine, as there is no leaves from the C. sinesis plant in this blend.
