This is Starwest's nitrogen-flushed double wall silverfoil pack. Decorticated means removed from the outer hull, the seed pod. Cardamom is a popular spice worldwide. In Europe, it is used in Dutch windmill biscuits and Scandinavian-style cakes and pastries, and in the liqueur akvavit. Other uses are: in pickles, especially pickled herring; in punches and mulled wines; occasionally with meat, poultry and shellfish. It flavours custards, and some Russian liqueurs. In India, it features in curries, is essential in pilaus (rice dishes) and gives character to pulse dishes. Cardamom is often included in Indian sweet dishes and drinks. Cardamom is also chewed like nuts, as a breath and tooth cleaner. It is a flavouring for Arab and Turkish coffee. Chinese use powdered cardamom sprinkled on cooked cereal to correct gluten intolerance in children. The 1997 Commission E on Phytotherapy and Herbal Substances of the German Federal Institute for Drugs recommends Cardamom for 'Dyspepsia. Average daily dosage: 1.5 g of drug; equivalent preparations. Tincture (according to Erg. B. 6): Daily dosage: 1 - 2 g. Mode of Administration: Ground seeds, as well as galenical preparations thereof for internal use. Actions: Cholagogue; Virustatic.' Grieve's classic 'A Modern Herbal': 'The seeds are helpful in indigestion and flatulence, giving a grateful but not fiery warmth. When chewed singly in the mouth the flavour is not unpleasant, and they are said to be good for colic and disorders of the head. In flavouring they are combined with oils of Orange, Cinnamon, Cloves, and Caraway.' King's 1898 Dispensatory: 'Cardamom seeds are very warm, grateful, pungent and aromatic, and form an agreeable addition to bitter infusions, and other medicinal compounds. They arechiefly employed as a carminative in flatulency, and to flavor syrups, tinctures, etc. Dose of the powder, from 10 grains to 2 drachms; infusion (bruised seeds, j to boiling water, Oss), a wineglassful. As the powder rapidly loses its aromatic property, the seeds should be pulverized from time to time, as they are required for present employment.' Eclectic Materia Medica, 1922 (Felter): 'Carminative. All preparations are useful in flatulent colic, and to flavor tinctures, syrups, and other medicines, particularly alkaline mixtures, the compound tincture imparting to these an agreeable taste and color.' British Pharmaceutical Codex, 1911: 'Powdered cardamom seeds, on account of their carminative properties, are administered with purgatives, as in Extractum Colocynthidis Compositum, and with other aromatics, as in Pulvis Cinnamomi Compositus, and Pulvis Cretae Aromaticus. Tinctura Cardamomi Composita is the most commonly used cordial and flavouring agent. Combined with cinnamon, cloves, caraway, and ginger, cardamom seeds are also contained in Tinctura Carminativa, a more aromatic preparation than the compound tincture of cardamoms.' |

This is Starwest's nitrogen-flushed double wall silverfoil pack. Henna leaves are finely ground and made into a paste with lemon juice. The paste is put on the skin in desired pattern. It is often sealed with a lemon-sugar glaze or a wrap to keep the design intact and deepen the color. This paste is left on the skin for several hours, or overnight if possible. When the paste is removed, the skin is stained with a red-orange pattern. This stain becomes darker over the next few days, and then gradually fades out in one to eight weeks. Henna will stain hair when mixed with shampoo. Referred to as Camphire in the bible, this plant's religious significance is derived from its symbolization of fire and earth. One of the earliest documented uses of henna is found in the archeological evidence of Egyptian tombs in the valley of Nile. Mummies of Egyptian rulers and their families were prepared to enter the next world with henna-tinted fingernails. Hieroglyphics names henna as pouquer. During the reign of Augustus, Emperor of Rome (27 B.C.-A.D. 14), Egypt became an important trade hub for commerce between Rome and India. There are ancient murals in the Ajanta- Ellora caves near Mumabi (old Bombay) dated before A.D. 350 that, remarkably, show a princess of Patliputra reclining under a tree, half asleep, having her hands and feet painted with flowery henna designs. Historians mention that henna may have been brought to India along with Persian horses around A.D 712. What is known is that henna has been cultivated in Rajasthan since around 1476. The use of Mehndi (also called Mehandi) or henna became a significant part of Indian folk art. The orange-red Mehndi color was often painted on new brides. The women were painted with intricate designs on order to distinguish them from unmarried young virgins. Mehndi flourished as decorative art in India. Hindus consider Mehndi as very dear to Lakshmi, goddess of wealth and fortune. Henna was introduced to Europe in the 19th century. Grieve's classic 'A Modern Herbal': 'Since 1890 it has been widely used in Europe for tinting the hair, usually in the form of a shampoo, many shades being obtainable by mixing with the leaves of other plants, such as indigo.' 'As a dye for the skin or nails the powder may be mixed with catechu [betel nut] or lucerne [alfalfa], made into a paste with hot water, and spread on the part to be dyed, being allowed to remain for one night.' 'The Egyptians are said to have prepared both an oil and an ointment from the flowers for making the limbs supple.' Here's one good recipe for henna body art paste, from a good Mehndi learning site: http://www.rupalpinto.com/Mehndi/four.html: Main Ingredients Lemon or Lime Juice - Henna only releases its dye at a low pH, so adding something acidic to your henna will help to improve and catalyze the dye-release process. Lemonade concentrate is an appropriate form of this ingredient as well. Essential Oil - The most commonly used e |

This is a potent 5 to 1 powdered extract, meaning that one gram of extract is equal in potency to 5 grams of herb. This extract is packed in Plum Flower Brand's nitrogen-flushed, safety-sealed dispenser bottle, a sample of which is pictured above. Plum Flower is one of the most distinguished herb houses in the world. This is a pure herbal product with no additives. Extracted from sulfur-free and chlorine-free herbs for superior quality. Manufactured in a low-temperature water extraction process to preserve herb integrity. Extracted essential oils are replenished for proper potency. Strict quality control testing to ensure microbiological and heavy metal safety. Only powdered herb added to maintain purity (no artificial fillers such as lactose, cellulose or starch used). TLC (Thin-layer Chromatography) tested to guarantee product quality. Plum Flower takes great care to preserve delicate herbal oils, which are first evaporated using either a water or water-alcohol base in a process that never exceeds 100° centigrade. Sealed vacuum chargers precisely control the temperature, ensuring that none of the oils are lost. Cheaper, high-temperature methods are common industry practice, but these tend to burn off the vital oils. The facilities in Lanzhou and Guang Zhou, China, scientifically test each batch of herbs before, during and after the processing to make sure that all the active ingredients are present. Herbs are also tested to ensure that the formulas surpass all FDA guidelines regarding heavy metals. Those herbs exported to the U.S. are voluntarily submitted to the FDA for approval. Finally, batches are regularly sent out for quality control testing in third-party labs to double-ensure that Plum Flower products are 100% free of pharmaceuticals, preservatives and dyes. The Lanzhou and Guang Zhou factories are so clean, they are certified by the Australian Government’s Therapeutic Goods Administration (GMP). These standards surpass any of the FDA, and are considered the highest for any government agency in the world. Varuna Fulfillment Center items are special ordered.
