Cells vs Meridians

Chinese herb is Meridians-specific

The Chinese medicine meridians are a series of pathways both under the surface of the skin and deep within the body, which carry subtle energy. According to the philosophy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, this energy, known as chi, is the most powerful source of both nourishment and direction for the body. It is a life-giving force, and a life-directing force, more vital even than air, food, and water. All of the meridians are interconnected with one another, forming a complete circuit of energy flow through the body. 

There are twelve main meridian pairs. Each correlates with a different major organ. When the meridian system is blocked, imbalanced, or dysfunctional in any way, illness in the physical body is soon to follow.  Chinese herb is characterized by which meridian channels it goes to, for therapeutic purposes.   For example, when chi in the lung meridian is not flowing properly, asthma, or a lung infection is likely.  A professional practitioner can stimulate the flow of subtle energy using formulated Chinese herbs, thereby correcting the imbalance.

Nutraceutical is for cells-health

Cells are the fundamental units of life - the bricks from which all your tissues and organs are made - and are the smallest components considered to be living organisms in your body.  If your cells cannot operate efficiently, the functioning of your tissues and organs, which are built of your cells, will become compromised, and you can experience a diminishment of physical functioning and the onset of a host of health conditions and diseases. So, by keeping your cells well nourished, you are keeping yourself well nourished and healthy.

Your cells need a full spectrum of vitamins, especially the B-vitamins, to support energy production and keep the level of offshoot free radicals at a minimum. Your cells also need healthy fats (like the omega-3 fatty acids) and a good source of proteins to support healthy, protective membranes. And, your cells need a high intake of antioxidants, like the vitamin E family compounds found in the germ of whole grains, vitamin C found in citrus foods, and the carotenoids from vegetables to protect against free radical damage to your DNA, which can cause irregular mutations.

NutraMetrix products, which include OPC-3, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants are designed to promote cells health.
