Every day you need to outsmart, out think, and outwit your
competition, just as your ancestors have for thousands of years.
Thankfully they knew the diet that kept their brains functioning with
optimal precision. To reap these same benefits, you don't need to travel
the world gathering them yourself. Your tribal medicine man has
already prepared them for you.
Eleven-hundred years ago a woman hummed as she
prepared the daily tea for both her husband and grandchild. Soon it
would be time for The Exam. Her grandson would be tested on his
knowledge of Confucian tests, mathematics, and other skills needed to be
a civil servant. To do well on these exams was to open the door to a
life of security and power in the Song Dynasty of 1000 A.D. This above
all else she wished for her daughter’s son and the tea would help
achieve this goal.
As she stirred, her husband slowly entered the room
carrying an armful of scrolls. Taking the tea, he dropped down and
unrolled a page of numbers. In his head he tallied them up and then
moved to the next list. He had been ten years older than her when they
married long ago. His sharp mind had already made him a successful
merchant. The years since may have weakened his body but his mind was
still nimble and focused. As with his grandchild, the tea he sipped
played a big part of his acuity.
This Westerner had mastered the ancient, complex
strategy game of “Go”, even beating the merchant. When asked, the
traveler claimed this herb “sage” was the secret of his success in the
game and much more. A deal was struck and when the traveler moved on a
single sage plant remained in the merchant’s garden. Over the years it
thrived and so did the family’s riches.
Knowledge of the secret power of plants has served
humankind for thousands of years. The underlying chemistry wasn’t
grasped but the effects were known for millennia. This information was
passed on mother to daughter, medicine man to apprentice. The blessings
of nature were understood and utilized for the good of the family and
the tribe. But as humans developed a more detailed view of the world
scientists started tinkering with strange, new molecules and promised
they’d work far better than the rough mixtures of the past. In some
cases, they were right. But in many cases the new, pure, synthetic
compounds weren’t truly an improvement when judged honestly. During this
age of scientific hubris, some of the scientists rejected the new and
devoted their studies to the old, the ancient. The plants and mushrooms
that had once healed the tribe were carefully teased apart, studying the
powers of the individual molecules they contained, studying the
miracles of which they were capable. In this quest for understanding the
components a universal truth was discovered…alone is weak, together is
strong. No one molecule could be found that when used alone gave the
benefit of using the entire leaf, flower, or root. It’s time to return
to the whole.
