What is HIBAMATA?

Hibamata is a type of seaweed primarily found in rocky coastlines of the North Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, where the water is cold. While it has been traditionally consumed as tea and in other forms in Europe for a long time. From this Hibamata family, a functional food ingredient named Ascophyllan has been extracted from the seaweed Ascophyllum nodosum.

The Seaweed Ascophyllum nodosum

Ascophyllum nodosum is a seaweed exclusive to the coasts of the North Atlantic. It thrives even in the harsh winters of countries like Norway and Ireland and is known for its robust vitality. While the average lifespans of seaweeds like “Okinawa Mozuku” and “Wakame” are about one year, and “Kelp” is around four years, Ascophyllum nodosum can live for 5-10 years, with some lasting up to 16 years, making it exceptionally long-lived compared to other commonly consumed seaweeds in Japan.

Revolutionary Functional Food Ingredient "Ascophyllan”

Derived from the vigorous Ascophyllum nodosum, Ascophyllan is a novel ingredient distinct in composition and structure from Fucoidan and is expected to have benefits such as infection prevention through its immune-boosting properties and blood sugar level control using intestinal hormones.

Its marine-derived polysaccharides, surpassing Fucoidan in efficacy, are shown to potentially prevent various health issues and reduce cold symptoms within just 8 weeks.

Ascophyllan is a Natural Boost for Your Immune System and Blood Sugar Control

Ascophyllan, a dynamic natural compound, activates dendritic and NK cells, fortifying the body’s immune defenses. Celebrated for its antiviral attributes, it stands as an effective ally in the prevention of illnesses like influenza, enhancing your body’s resilience against common pathogens.

Beyond its immune-boosting capabilities, Ascophyllan plays a pivotal role in metabolic health. By inhibiting intestinal α-glucosidase and stimulating GLP-1 secretion in the small intestine’s L cells, it helps in regulating blood sugar levels. This dual action not only suppresses postprandial blood sugar spikes but also maintains lower average blood sugar levels. Additionally, it contributes to the reduction of critical health indicators such as HbA1c values, offering a comprehensive approach to managing blood sugar health.

JIPANG Ginger WASABI – 60 Vegetable Capsules

CustomerTeam — Mon, 21 Aug 2023 02:18:33 +0000

What is Wasabi?

Wasabi (Wasabi japonica (Miq.) Matsumura), commonly known as Japanese horseradish, is a member of the Brassi-caceae vegetables. Its rhizome has a pungent flavor, which is popularly used as a spice among Japanese household.

Wasabi originating in Japan is the plant of Brassicaceae Wasabia. “Wasabi” written on wooden strips was found in the ruins of a medicinal herb garden in Asuka-Kyo that existed about 1300 years ago, and was recorded in “Honzo Wamyo,” the oldest Japanese encyclopedia of medicinal plants, about 1100 years ago. Wasabi was traditionally used for medicine at this time, and then used as a food condiment about 800 years ago.

Wasabi Sulfinyl

Wasabi contains 21 kinds of isothiocyanates. Allyl ITC (AITC), a pungent ingredient, is the most well-known compound. In recent years, 6-(methylsulfinyl) hexyl ITC (6-MSITC) has attracted attention due to various functional reports. This 6-MSITC, a type of mustard oil contained in wasabi, is also called wasabi sulfinyl.

What makes Wasabi Sulfinyl a suitable addition to our JIPANG Ginger．

Many physiological functions of 6-MSITC have been reported till date, including detoxification, antioxidation, anti-inflammation, blood flow improvement, anticancer functions, and the protection of neuronal cells. Recently, 6-MSITC has been reported to improve outcomes in mouse models of Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases. In addition, the data from a human clinical intervention including 37 healthy males and females who ingested Wasabi sulfinyl (WS), a wasabi extract powder containing 0.8% 6-MSITC, for eight weeks revealed that the attention and judgment of the clinical intervention volunteers were improved. Therefore, WS has recently been developed as a health supplement. https://www.jstage.jst.go.jp/article/fstr/26/6/26_813/_html/-char/ja

Various researches conducted over the years have proved Wasabi Sulfinyl to be very effective for the following conditions.

Cognitive functions Improvement

Ageing causes changes to the brain size, vasculature, and cognition. The brain shrinks with increasing age and there are changes at all levels from molecules to morphology. Incidence of stroke, white matter lesions, and dementia also rise with age, as does level of memory impairment and there are changes in levels of neurotransmitters and hormones. Protective factors that reduce cardiovascular risk seem to aid the aging brain as does increased cognitive effort in the form of education or occupational attainment.

A study was conducted to explore the effects of a wasabi root extract product rich in 6-(methylsulfinyl) hexyl isothiocyanate named “Wasabi Sulfinyl (WS)”on neurocognitive functions in the cognitively intact elderly. 37 healthy males and females (19 in test group and 18 in placebo group) between the ages of 45 to 68 volunteered for the experiment. The test group were given 100mg of WS for eight weeks. The results indicated that the test group exhibited significantly better performance in both reverse-Stroop control task and Stroop interference task of the G-SWCT at week 8. During the study no WS-induced side effects were observed. The results showed that WS may have significant beneficial effects on attention╱processing-related cognitive performance in cognitively intact middle-aged and older adults. Post-hoc analyses of subgroups suggest that non-exercisers subjects were more likely respond to WS.

Another study’s results highlighted an interesting neuroprotective activity of 6-MSITC, which was able to restore a physiological oxidative status, interfere positively with Nrf2-pathway, decrease apoptosis and neuroinflammation and contribute to behavioral recovery. Taken together, these findings demonstrated that 6-MSITC could be a promising complement for Alzheimer’s disease therapy.

Anti-tumor and Anti-cancer Properties

Several studies have showed Wasabi Sulfinyl to be very effective against various tumors and cancer conditions. The anti-tumor effects of 6-MITC have been reported against tumors such as endometrial carcinoma cells, breast and skin cancer, pancreas cancer, colorectal cancer, and hematological tumors; however, the effects vary among cell types.

Shell Ginger

Shell Ginger (Alpinia zerumbet) is a tropical perennial plant. Against three major modern diseases — Alzheimer’s disease, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer — Shell Ginger exerts wonderful preventive effects. Therefore, this plant should be called a modern day ‘Panacea’. The Panacea /pænəˈsiːə/ is a term named after the Greek goddess of universal remedy Panakeia. In Japan for centuries, it has been consumed in Okinawa whose population is frequently cited as “the healthiest on earth,” boasts an impressively low incidence of cardiovascular disease, stroke, and cancer. The scientist made a recent experiment on worms and discovered that those fed on a daily diet of Shell Ginger lived an average of 22.6 percent longer than the control group. This miraculous plant is packed with dozens of polyphenols such as Chlorogenic acid, Ferulic acid, Quercetin, Epicatechin, Catechin, and Kaempferol. Read more>>

Why JIPANG Ginger Wasabi？

JIPANG Ginger is already high in antioxidants and very rich in healthy polyphenols which make it very effective against several diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease, cardiovascular diseases, cancer, metabolic problems, skin problems, psoriasis and others.

JIPANG Ginger Powder (60g) – Powder

CustomerTeam — Wed, 10 Jun 2020 05:29:51 +0000

Shell ginger (Alpinia zerumbet is the botanical name) is a tropical perennial plant that grows in abundance in Okinawa and continues to be used in traditional Okinawan cuisine and as a traditional remedy. The leaves of shell ginger come in two forms – deep green and gold striped. It blooms amazing yellow flowers around July and white blossoms in early summer. Shell ginger has a long and respected history.

You may not be familiar with the plant called “Shell Ginger” (Alpinia zerumbet). Shell ginger is different from ordinary ginger. Please don’t confuse shell ginger with ordinary one. Very much different in health benefits. Because it grows in Okinawa’s subtropical climate, it has thousands of phytochemicals that protect itself from strong sunlight.

For 12 years, we have been producing health supplements from this plant. Our brand name is “JIPANG Ginger” which helps thousands of people to maintain and improve their health and vitality not only in Japan but also all over the world. And recently, we started to offer two kinds of JIPANG Ginger.

Does Shell Ginger Promote Longevity?

With a life expectancy of 84.55 years in 2019, Japan always on the top list when it comes longest life expectancy. Many longest-living people of Japan are from Okinawa where many residents are over 100 years old. Among the many reasons contributing to their longevity, nutrition and the “Okinawan diet” are said to be key elements for highest life expectancy and healthy lives in Okinawa

So what exactly makes the Okinawan diet special?

One local ingredient, called shell ginger(Alpinia zerumbet), has become the focus of different studies and can be said to be a substantial contributor to longevity in Okinawa. Shell ginger has been used for various purposes in the lives of people living in Okinawa. Leaves of shell ginger have long been used as packing materials for rice cakes (Mochi) and custom to eat it to pray for good health.

High in Antioxidants

JIPANG Ginger has outstanding antioxidant properties. Antioxidants act as “shields” for our bodies from free radicals. Antioxidants help us fight the free radicals that cause aging. Free radicals are one of the reason we age, and they cause our bodies to burn through energy faster and slow down our metabolism.

It is thought that free radicals can attack the cells in our body. They can cause cell damage and may also be linked to various other diseases. If you are not getting enough antioxidants in your diet, this can lead to oxidative stress, which can eventually lead to cell damage and risk of developing cancer, heart disease, and many other chronic illnesses and health problems.

Full of Healthy Polyphenols - 34 Times more Polyphenols than Red Wine

Shell ginger contains 34 times more polyphenols than red wine, which makes our JIPANG Ginger lifesaver supplement. The compounds in the polyphenols act like anti-inflammatory agents that stop the growth of inflammatory cells that cause inflammation. When the amount of polyphenols is increased, this makes the body’s inflammatory response to particle exposure much more effective. These same compounds also protect us from other health problems, like cardiovascular disease and cancer. They help keep us out of danger since they limit the growth of many of the carcinogens that are usually involved in cancer cells’ growth. This is why polyphenol intake is said to be an important component of a healthy diet.

Focusing on the traditional fermentation technique, we fermented Shell Ginger with the fungus “Aspergillus niger”. So, we discovered that some phytochemicals were significantly increased. We don’t know exactly how the many phytochemicals such as polyphenols, terpenoids, kava pyrones, phenylpropanoids, sterols, etc. are absorbed in the intestine.

For example, polyphenol here is 8000 types, and their absorption rates from the intestinal tract are all different. In general, its absorption rate is generally not high. The absorption rate of flavanol, chalcone, and isoflavone is about 5 to 30%. As the amount of these polyphenols increases due to fermentation, the amount of polyphenols in the blood also increases. So the anti-obesity, anti-oxidant, anti-glycation, anti-platelet, osteogenic, and neuraminidase inhibitory activities are enhanced.

Shell ginger also contains carotenoids. Carotenoids have a low absorption rate of 0.1% to a few%, but if you eat a lot of them, most of them will be taken into the body in proportion to the amount you eat. Although still in the research stage, some carotenoids in shell ginger are significantly increased by fermentation. Carotenoids have various health-promoting effects similar to polyphenols.

However, there should be beneficial enzymes and nutrients that are destroyed by fermentation. For example, curcumin in turmeric exhibits a liver function-improving effect. But curcumin must be metabolized to tetradehydrocurcumin by a special enzyme to exert its effect. If the enzyme is destroyed, curcumin is useless. (Please don’t worry. This enzyme is not decomposed by fermentation because it exists in the epithelial cells in the intestine. I just write an example.)

Good Sources of Dietary Fiber

Dietary fiber is a good thing for your body. It helps to prevent the buildup of toxins in your system. Without dietary fiber in the diet, you can be at risk for irritable bowel syndrome, colon cancer, dyslipidemia, constipation, obesity, diabetes, etc. Fiber will enable your body to be able to absorb the food that you eat much more easily, thereby eliminating that problem that we talked about before. Another good thing about fiber is that it allows you to feel full faster. This allows you to eat less overall and still have enough nutrients for the rest of your day.

Shell ginger powder contains as much as 60% dietary fiber. So it is a good source of dietary fiber.

Various Ways to Drink and Eat Shell Ginger

We use only Okinawa shell ginger leaves which are carefully chosen. Since shell ginger is processed to powder, then it can be mixed with Western confectionery such as cakes, ice cream, yogurt, jelly as well as other foods. Polyphenols generally do not stay long in the body after being absorbed in the intestine. At best, for 2 to a few hours. Therefore, if you want to get the best effect of polyphenols, you should take it every few hours. For that, you are encouraged to drink shell ginger tea just like coffee. Both types – fermented type and non-fermented simple type – are OK for tea.

JIPANG Ginger Optimal – 60 Vegetable Capsules

CustomerTeam — Tue, 25 Feb 2020 01:52:52 +0000

Shell Ginger (Alpinia zerumbet) is a tropical perennial plant. Against three major modern diseases — Alzheimer’s disease, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer — Shell Ginger exerts wonderful preventive effects. Therefore this plant should be called a modern day ‘Panacea’. The Panacea /pænəˈsiːə/ is a term named after the Greek goddess of universal remedy Panakeia. In Japan for centuries it has been consumed in Okinawa whose population is frequently cited as “the healthiest on earth,” boasts an impressively low incidence of cardiovascular disease, stroke, and cancer. The scientist made a recent experiment on worms and discovered that those fed on a daily diet of Shell Ginger lived an average of 22.6 percent longer than the control group. This miraculous plant is packed with dozens of polyphenols such as Chlorogenic acid, Ferulic acid, Quercetin, Epicatechin, Catechin, and Kaempferol.

And from February 2021, we can supply you with our recent product of Shell Ginger (JIPANG Ginger Optimal®) to which Ferulic Acid, Vitamin D3, and Vitamin A are newly added.

Ferulic acid is a type of polyphenol, but it is not as well known as quercetin and catechins. Ferulic acid is thought to play an important role in strengthening brain function, improving healthy skin, reducing insulin resistance, protecting bone loss, and delaying aging. Therefore, although Shell Ginger already contains a lot of ferulic acids, we have added this very important polyphenol.

Vitamin A works to produce IgA antibody, which is responsible for local immunity to the mucous membrane that is the first defense mechanism against viruses and bacteria in the human body. IgA binds to pathogens and viruses on the surface of the mucous membrane, nullifies the toxins that the pathogens and viruses carry, and prevents them from becoming infected.

Vitamin D activates macrophage which is a type of white blood cell that is found throughout the body, including the blood, brain, liver, lungs, and intestines. It has the function of eating bacteria and viruses that have invaded the body and is one of the important immune cells that protects us from infectious diseases.

This vitamin induces the production of “cathelicidin” and “defensin”, which are expected to have bactericidal and antibacterial effects. Vitamin D is also expected to have the effect of suppressing cytokine storms. Vitamin D controls tight junction proteins, which enhance barrier function and protects the skin and intestines. About 60% of the body’s immune cells are present in the intestine, so protecting the intestine can be expected to boost the immune system.

JIPANG Ginger Optimal® is a very important supplement in this pandemic era.

So, what does shell ginger contain to be so effective against various diseases?

Polyphenols– Polyphenols are powerful antioxidants. Antioxidants protect the body from damage caused by harmful molecules called free radicals. Shell ginger contains 34 times more polyphenols than red wine, which makes our JIPANG Ginger Optimal lifesaver supplement. The compounds in the polyphenols act like anti-inflammatory agents that stop the growth of inflammatory cells that cause inflammation.

→Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity is a method of measuring antioxidant properties in biological samples, developed by researchers at the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the National Institute on Aging in 1992. Higher the ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) value, higher is the antioxidant property of that sample. JIPANG Ginger® has outstanding antioxidant capacity compared with other foods.

→DPPH: 2,2- Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl, commonly known as DPPH is a strong radical and is a visual method used to check the antioxidant property of a sample.

Chlorogenic acid– It decreases the uptake of glucose in the body and assist in regulating blood glucose levels and impacts on the reduction of lipid peroxidation, resulting in significant heart health benefits.

Ferulic acid– Ferulic acid has powerful antioxidant properties with wide-ranging functions, from anti-aging support to improved cholesterol management to cancer prevention. Its antioxidant effect on the skin is particularly impressive and is often used as an ingredient in skin care products. It has the ability to abrogate the destructive and toxic effects of beta-amyloid peptide which is the protein now believed to impair memory in Alzheimer’s disease.

Quercetin– Several laboratory studies show quercetin may have anti-inflammatory properties, and it is being investigated for a wide range of potential health benefits.

Epicatechin– has insulin mimicking action and improves heart health. Dr. Norman Hollenberg of Harvard Medical School even suggests to consider epicatechin as a vitamin.
Catechin– In laboratory tests, the catechins present in tea leaves have been shown to inhibit the growth of cancer cells. In addition to this, they are able to prevent the activity of free radicals, the molecules which cause cellular damage that can lead to cancer.
Kaempferol– is a strong antioxidant and helps to prevent oxidative damage to our cells, lipids and DNA.

Polyphenol Benefits

Most polyphenols are anti-oxidants, and being anti-oxidants they can minimize the damage done by free radicals on the body. Free radicals are often blamed for causing cellular damage which is associated with aging. Polyphenols are also known to help the immune system, and a strong immune system is important for good health. Polyphenols can also improve the circulation of blood, which can lower the risk of heart and cardiovascular disease.

Thanks to the above mentioned nutrients, fermented leaves of Shell Ginger are effective in the prevention of the following conditions.

Alzheimer’s disease is characterized by progressive loss of memory, language, reasoning and other cognitive functions, including dementia, the presence of senile plaques, neurofibrillary tangles, and synapse loss. Increased oxidative stress, decreased antioxidants, mitochondrial damage and other factors play major roles in the development and progression of Alzheimer’s disease. Shell Ginger contains key compounds, especially Ferulic acid, that have been found useful in combating Alzheimer’s disease (AD), which could mean that this supplement might be able to keep the decline from starting. Ferulic acid (FA) as an antioxidant is able to act as a free radical scavenger. Ferulic acid dose-dependently inhibits fAβ (β-Amyloid Fibrils ) formation from amyloid β-peptide. It is a β-secretase modulator with therapeutic potential against Alzheimer’s disease.

Cardiovascular diseases (Heart Protection): Several types of research have reported effects consistent with pharmacological applications of quercetin and other polyphenols in cardiovascular diseases. Chlorogenic acid suppresses chronic ventricular remodeling after myocardial ischemia because it is critically involved in the suppression of macrophage infiltration. Another compound, epicatechin alters mitochondrial function and membrane fluidity to produce cardiac protection. Several other types of research have reported effects consistent with pharmacological applications of quercetin in cardiovascular diseases.

Cancer: Shell Ginger can also be effective in the treatment of many types of cancers. It has been found that chlorogenic acid induces cell cycle arrest at the S phase and suppresses the activation of the extracellular signal-related kinase. Chlorogenic acid sensitizes hepatocellular carcinoma cells to 5-FU (Fluorouracil) treatment by the suppression of extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK) activation through the overproduction of ROS (Reactive Oxygen Species). Ferulic acid may be used as an effective therapeutic agent against breast cancer. Ferulic acid might inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis via inhibiting PI3K/Akt pathway in osteosarcoma cells. In the etiology of cancer, free radical plays a major role; therefore, antioxidants present in diet have fastidious consideration as potential inhibitors of abandoned cell growth. Ferulic acid’s anti-carcinogenic activity is related to its capability of scavenging ROS and stimulation of cytoprotective enzymes. Quercetin has also been studied extensively as a chemoprevention agent in several cancer models.

Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of conditions such as increased blood pressure, high blood sugar, excess body fat around the waist, and low HDL or high triglyceride level which occur together, increasing your risk of heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. It has been seen that one of the polyphenols found in shell ginger, Chlorogenic acid markedly alters the increased plasma total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein but decreases high-density lipoprotein diet with a dose-dependent improvement on both atherogenic index and cardiac risk factor. It has also shown to delay intestinal glucose absorption, inhibit gluconeogenesis and stimulates glucose transport in skeletal muscle via the activation of (AMP-activated protein kinase).

Post-menopausal syndrome: Post Menopause is the years after menopause. During this stage, menopausal symptoms, such as hot flashes, can annoy many women. As a result of a lower level of estrogen, postmenopausal women are at increased risk for a number of health conditions, such as osteoporosis and heart disease.Quercetin has also been found useful for the treatment of postmenopausal problems and effective in preventing recurrent urinary tract infections, especially if administered with vaginal estrogen therapy.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27838537

Perimenopause is also called the menopausal transition. Women start perimenopause at different ages with symptoms such as hot flashes, sleep problems, and vaginal dryness. In the early 1960s, ferulic acid was found to be effective for reducing menopausal symptoms, including hot flashes. It has been found that ferulic acid may protect against various inflammatory conditions due to its free-radical scavenging effects.

Prostate problems: Shell Ginger improves immunity and re-establishes hormonal and enzymatic homeostasis or balance which helps to tackle prostate cancer. One of the compounds present in shell ginger called beta-sitosterol is also found effective against prostate cancer. Shell Ginger grown in Okinawan soil is packed with dozens of polyphenols that act synergistically to become powerful natural antioxidants with the ability to protect normal human cells. It has been found that chlorogenic acid exhibits a restraining effect on benign prostatic hyperplasia and its mechanism might be related to inhibit typeⅡ-alpha-reductase activity. Another study has shown that ferulic acid may lead to cell cycle arrest in prostate cancer cells. Epidemiologic studies have also shown a chemopreventive effect of quercetin on prostate cancer that has been exhibited in animal experiments.

Maintenance of blood glucose level: A study was carried out to investigate whether chlorogenic acids modulate glucose uptake and gastrointestinal hormone and insulin secretion in humans. It was found that chlorogenic acid might have an antagonistic effect on glucose transport. Therefore, a novel function of some dietary phenols in humans may be to attenuate intestinal glucose absorption rates and shift the site of glucose absorption to more distal parts of the intestine. It is also found that chlorogenic acid decreases the uptake of glucose in the body and assist in regulating blood glucose levels and impacts on the reduction of lipid peroxidation, resulting in significant heart health benefits. https://academic.oup.com/ajcn/article/78/4/728/4690021

Inhibition of formation of AGEs: Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are major factors responsible for the complication of diabetes. Labdadiene is a potent antiglycation agent found in shell ginger which was found to inhibit AGEs formation in three different steps in the pathway. These data indicate that labdadiene could be used to prevent glycation-associated complications in diabetes. Another flavonol, Quercetin, found in shell ginger leaves can effectively inhibit the formation of AGEs in a dose-dependent manner via trapping reactive dicarbonyl compounds. In the bovine serum albumin (BSA)–MGO/GO system, quercetin traps Methylglyoxal (MGO) and glyoxal (GO) directly and then significantly inhibits the formation of AGEs.

https://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/jf504132x

Skin problems: Chronic exposure to endogenous and environmental pro-oxidant agents, leads to the generation of reactive oxygen species. Antioxidants protect the body from damage caused by harmful molecules called free radicals. The rhizome aqueous extract of Shell Ginger is a good source of bioactive compounds against enzymes responsible for causing skin diseases. Moreover, Kavalactones found in Shell Ginger could be used as a potent inhibitor and can be further exploited to be used in anti-skin disease formulations. Another compound, kaempferol has also been found as a potent chemopreventive agent against skin cancer.

Atopic dermatitis is a condition that makes your skin red and itchy. Dr. Makise has treated more than 40,000 patients suffering from atopic dermatitis, with stunning results. One reason for Shell Ginger’s success according to Dr. Makise is its detoxification effect.

Dr. Makise recommends taking JIPANG Ginger in a dose of 1400 mg-2000 mg/day as supplement therapy to prevent the relapse of psoriasis. Flavonoids present in Shell Ginger offer some protection against psoriatic complications through their roles as inhibitors of inflammation and as free radical scavengers. It has also been found that quercetin has the potential against further development as a candidate for psoriasis treatment. For more information about Psoriasis treatment click here>>
