Ginger
Ginger has a long history of use in both Ayurvedic & Chinese medicine and as a culinary spice. Traditionally used as a diaphoretic (to lower fever), and for its warming properties with conditions involving ‘damp’ and ‘cool’ (bronchitis) in Chinese medicine. Ginger stimulates blood circulation and also the production of bile. This makes it a great digestive stimulant. Another well documented property of ginger - is its effect upon nausea and stomach upset. Star Anise
Star Anise has a history as an aphrodisiac, as well as a digestive aid and a distinctive liquorice taste.

Therapeutically black pepper is used with Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine for its carminative, warming and elimination properties. Black pepper acts as both a digestive stimulant (loss of appetite) and a carminative (digestive upset). The high terpene content also give this extract tonifying properties and assist with mental stimulation.

Guarana has a stimulating effect stronger and longer lasting than caffeine in coffee. It is also an appetite suppressant and Ginseng
Ginseng has for centuries been used in the east for its stimulating properties. It is known as the ‘root of power’, and whilst not exactly a stimulant, it is a useful herb to combat stress and fatigue, to maximise stamina and to build strength.
