*Research and Studies done on these herbs used
Violet Leaves (Viola Odorata) has been used for centuries as a blood purifier. As a blood cleanser may have some effects in warding off infection; uncontaminated blood may promote a higher resistance to disease and infection. A certain research showed that violet leaves are beneficial to prevent and treat the early stage of cancer. It’d due to the high antioxidant level which is able to fight the free radicals as the main factor of cancer growth. The regular consumption of violet leaves is evidently able to reduce or shrink the early stage or tumor and cancer.

Blue Flag (Iris Versicolor) herb has numerous medicinal properties. It is not only helpful in aiding the purifying of the blood through the liver, and to increase bile production, but it also helps our spleen and the glands in our lymphatic system. It has high detoxifying properties and is mainly used to remove the toxic substances in the body.
Comfrey (Symphytum officinale) has several medicinal actions. It is known as a vulnerary and as an astringent. These properties make it useful in the healing of minor wounds, both internal and external. Comfrey can be used for minor injuries of the skin, where it will work to increase cell production, causing wounds to heal over rapidly. It can be used internally for stomach and duodenal ulcers, where it will have the same effect. Comfrey is also demulcent, producing a mucilage that coats and soothes irritated tissues. It will help reduce inflammation, and at the same time lessen scarring. Comfrey also has expectorant properties and has a relaxing effect on the respiratory membranes. Since it helps relax and soothe membranes, it is useful in coughs, asthma, and bronchitis. As an astringent, comfrey can also help control slow bleeding, as in the case of ulcers.

Red clover (Trifolium pretense) is widely used in traditional medicine as a remedy for menopause symptoms, asthma, whooping cough, arthritis, and even cancer. Has metabolic diuretic (stimulates the removal of waste and water from the kidneys), lymphatic (stimulates lymph movement) and expectorant (supports elimination of mucus from the lungs) properties. Because of these characteristics, red clover has been described as a 'blood purifier'.
*Reference: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24312387. It has affinities with the respiratory, circulatory and lymphatic systems and is known as a relaxing expectorant and a "blood cleanser". It has a reputation as a remedy for coughs, skin issues, & lymphatic indications. Also Trifolium is useful for any chronic condition of toxicity, enhances the detoxification functions of the liver. The alterative properties of Trifolium give this herb great usefulness in the treatment of skin conditions. It is of value in recurrent boils or acne, eczema, and psoriasis. Trifolium exerts some of the strongest phytoestrogenic effects among medicinal plants. Valuable for menopausal women because of its phyotoestrogenic and mineral constituents.

Cleavers Root (Galium aparine) Cleavers is believed to support the immune system and have diuretic, antispasmodic, and anti-inflammatory effects. In addition to research on cancer, cleavers has been used on skin conditions, like psoriasis. University of California Agriculture and Natural Resources, Statewide Integrated Pest Management Program.

According to the American Cancer Society, "Immunomodulators are a group of drugs that mainly target the pathways that treat multiple myeloma and a few other cancers. They have many ways to work, including working on the immune system directly by turning down some proteins and turning up others". 4 Although more human studies are needed, cleavers has been shown to act as an immunomodulator by promoting the proliferation of lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell). This effect suggests the potential for immune system benefits and cancer cell reduction. 1 In addition, studies on two human tumor cells, MCF-7 and Caco-2, demonstrate the ability of cleavers extract to inhibit cancer cell growth through apoptosis (programmed cell death). 5 Of course, looking at isolated effects in the lab can't always predict what will happen in the human body, however, these results are promising for the future of breast and colon cancer research.
*Reference: https://www.verywellhealth.com/colon-cancer-4014742. Cleavers is also listed as an immunomodulatory active herb influencing the defense response of the human body. Similarly, disorders of the blood are about more than just the bone marrow. For instance, hyperlipidemia in people is surely not just a problem with the blood - it is a lifestyle problem in many cases. Although this section is all about blood and immune disorders, every condition that is listed requires a global approach to treatment. Herbs inherently provide complex actions that address more than one deranged process in the body. Mechanisms of Interest - Adaptogens - These plants have been noted both traditionally and in human clinical trials and animal studies to increase resistance to stress, which predisposes animals to disease, including infection. Adaptogens generally work by modulating the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, but many have other effects as well, such as modulation of immune function.

French Maritime Pine Bark (Pinus pinaster) Pycnogenol’s Unique Composition. Pycnogenol French maritime pine bark extract is a naturally programmed combination with constant proportions of procyanidins, bioflavonoids and organic acids, which offer amazing natural properties. Maritime Pine Bark is used in our formulas to support a wide range of illnesses. It has been used for hundreds of years and works synergisticly as a potent antioxidant along with Vitamins C and E, to support cardiovascular health. - A powerful antioxidant Maritime Pine Bark is a natural antioxidant. It is an excellent source of flavonoids and has anti-inflammatory properties that work to protect the body from harmful free radicals, helps boost the immune system and strengthens blood vessel walls and capillaries. This specialist antioxidant is nearly 25 times more powerful than Vitamin C! It also boosts how the body uses Vitamin C. - Fight off a common cold Maritime Pine Bark was able to reduce the duration (i.e. the number of days) and severity (i.e. the intensity of the symptoms you experience) of colds in a study. Lost working days were significantly decreased in the group that was supplementing and 'significantly reduced the number of complications'. They also showed that there was less need to use other compounds whilst using the Maritime Pine Bark. - Balance blood sugars Maritime Pine Bark showed that it could reduce high blood sugar and help with pre-diabetes, or diabetes. Participants in the tests found improvement in blood sugar control when pine bark extract was combined with diabetic medications. In the studies the insulin levels didn't change, but glucose levels were reduced. - Improve cognitive function there’s evidence that Maritime Pine Bark may be a promising nootropic for various groups of people, including middle-aged professionals, students, and people with mild cognitive decline like brain fog. A clinical trial of 60 health professionals found that Maritime Pine Bark extract (150 mg/day) improved cognitive function. This included attention levels, alertness and performance. Research also showed sustained attention, memory, executive functions, mood, and reduce oxidative stress. - Reduce Allergies In studies where the participants took Maritime Pine Bark for at least 5 weeks prior to flu season, it was shown to reduce hay fever symptoms. In another clinical trial of 76 people with allergic asthma, the extract may reduce symptom scores and circulating leukotrienes are reduced and lung function was improved. - Improve exercise and physical performance Pine bark extract has a significant impact on nitric oxide (NO) levels in the body, which are responsible for vasodilation and improving blood flow. It also showed promising result to decrease free radicals in the body after exercise (which cause muscle fatigue and damage). It also reduced muscle cramps and pain.

Vitamin C In the medical literature, there are more than 64,000 published articles and studies on Vitamin C available at The U.S. National Library of Medicine National Center for Biotechnology Information. Vitamin C is arguably one of the most researched substances in existence. Much of the research is very positive. Ignorance of the research, benefits and use of Vitamin C is not a valid excuse for it not to be used as a therapy, particularly when there are no other known medications available, and it is not likely to cause damage, and the published research is readily accessible for everybody.
Following is a brief selection of articles and research from the medical literature that are educational and helpful in considering the use of Vitamin C.
