Oriyen Japanese Plum Balls
Nature's Food to Keep You in Peak Condition
Japanese Ume, the Blue Diamond of Fruits
Japanese Ume contains more citric acid, calcium, iron and phosphorus than any other fruits and twice as much protein. It is also rich in other organic acids and minerals.
Ume is a variety of plum originating from China where it was used over 4,000 years ago. It was introduced to Japan 1,300 years ago as a medicinal herb. Unlike the Chinese and Taiwanese varieties, the Japanese Ume is bigger, rounder and richer in nutrients.
Ume is indispensable in every Japanese household, consumed as a staple part of the diet for its many therapeutic properties.
Records dating as far back as the Heian Era, circa 950 A.D., are rich with accounts of the healing powers of the Ume:
- An umeboshi (pickled plum) a day will prevent 100 illnesses
- The virtues of the umeboshi are to kill intestinal worms, lower fever, stop a cough, reduce phlegm and stop diarrhea and vomiting
- Every time a male child is born, plant 3 plum trees
The Healing Powers of Ume
Rich in organic acids and minerals, Ume is ideal for maintaining the body in peak condition.
Promote vitality, retard aging, maintain sliminess
Lactic acid is produced when the body burns food for energy. Citric acid breaks down lactic acid into carbon dioxide and water to be expelled from the body.
Illness, drugs, poor eating habits, food additives and excessive consumption of meat and sugar can result in over-production of lactic acid and not enough citric acid to break it down. The build-up of lactic acid causes fatigue and muscle cramps.
Metabolic activity also turns sluggish, causing aging of cells and inefficient conversion of food into energy. Ume's high content of citric acid breaks down lactic acid and improves metabolism. Its high level of phosphoric acid also helps to improve metabolism and prevent aging of cells.
Guard against acidity in the blood
Blood can become acidic due to a build-up of lactic acid and other acids from a meaty diet. This causes headaches, insomnia and irritability, and contributes to chronic ailments such as arthritis, rheumatism, diabetes, liver diseases and cancer.
Strengthen digestive system
Ume contains catechin acid which kills germs in the intestines, speeds up intestinal peristalsis and acts as a laxative.
This triple action maintains a healthy digestive system. Ume is also excellent for deworming and relieving flatulence, constipation, diarrhea and food poisoning.
Improve liver function
Ume contains picric acid which helps the liver to efficiently neutralize toxins and contributes to overall well-being.
Strengthen immune system
Ume boosts the body's natural healing power and improves resistance to common viral infections such as colds, coughs and sore throat. It contains benzoaldehyde which relieves fever and pain.
Rich in calcium, iron and phosphorus
Pregnant women, growing children, the elderly and people suffering from arthritis and rheumatism need extra calcium and phosphorus. Women in general and those who are anemic need extra iron. Ume is a rich, natural source of iron.
Promote absorption of calcium and iron in pregnant women
Ume's high content of citric acid increases the absorption of calcium and iron. It is ideal for every pregnant woman and her growing foetus.
