This Chinese Mountain Ant Extract is a full-potency hydro-ethanolic extraction of one of the most powerful tonic substances known. The 8:1 extract is the highest potency Mountain Ant available anywhere, including China. It is made of clean, farmed Polyrhachis Ant from Chiangbai Mountain in remote northeastern China (north of North Korea).

Polyrhachis Ant is a rare variety of multi-spinous ant that grows wild in remote mountainous regions of Asia. Asian Mountain Ant is considered to be an extremely potent adaptogenic nutrient substance. Though Ant is an animal, it is included in the Chinese herbal system and are referred to as an "herb" along with Ginseng, Reishi mushroom, Cordyceps, Astragalus, Deer Antler, Rhodiola and Gynostemma, the superstars of Chinese tonic herbalism. According to Asian herbalists, Polyrhachis Ant promotes, maintains and prolongs life, replenishes Qi, nourishes blood, and increases vitality. It regulates yin and yang, is anti-aging, and enhances immunocompetence (bipolar immune regulation). Ant also improves sexual function and increases virility and fertility, strengthens the musculoskeletal system, calms anxiety, promotes sound sleep, and improves digestion and assimilation.
 
Traditionally, tonic ant (Polyrhachis vicina, collected from the pristine forests of Chiangbai Mountain in Manchuria) is used to promote, maintain and prolong life, replenish Qi, nourish blood, increase vitality, regulate Yin and Yang, enhance immunocompetence (bi-directional immune regulation), improve sexual function (increases virility and fertility), strengthen the musculoskeletal system, calm anxiety, promote sound sleep, and improve digestion and assimilation.
 
Ant can increase the amount of DNA and RNA inside of human cells. This is believed to slow down aging and to aid in the regeneration, and even rejuvenation of tissue. It is an extremely potent adaptogenic agent and is one of the elite  anti-aging substances used in tonic herbalism. The ATP (cellular energy source) in ants can provide energy directly to the human body. Mountain Ant is extremely rich in zinc. The zinc content of Polyrhachis Ant is the highest among all known living organisms. Every gram of dried ants contains 180 mg. of zinc. This undoubtedly explains part of ant's strong beneficial influence on sexuality, as zinc is a critical element in the human sexual function. Ant fortifies a weakened immune system and modifies an overactive immune system. Ant has been demonstrated in some studies to have liver protective activity by lowering the activity of SGPT, a liver enzyme that over-produces due to liver inflammation. Recent research demonstrated that Polyrhachis Ant can promote the growth and reduce the shrinkage of the thymus gland, which generally shrinks as one grows older.

Ant has been widely used and very highly regarded in China as a tonic for over 3000 years. Mountain Ant has been historically considered a superior herb of the highest order. In fact, it has been said that "Ginseng may be the King of Herbs, but Ant is the Herb of Kings!" Ant has been referred to in a number of famous Chinese medicinal classics, including Li Shi Chen's Ben Cao Gang Mu, where the great herbal master praised Mountain Ant as "a superior tonic with excellent curative powers." It has been universally touted as a superb Liver and Kidney tonic of the highest order. Its name, which it received in ancient times, means "black horse." Imperial records indicate that numerous emperors and other noblemen have consumed ant tonics to promote sexuality and to increase longevity.

Anyone seeking a powerful adaptogen can take this product. Because of its long and short term energy boosting quality, ant tonics are becoming popular as pre-workout elixirs. Ant is an ideal tonic for athletes.
