Ashwagandha Root C/S (Withania somnifera) 1 lb: C
|
This is Starwest's nitrogen-flushed double wall silverfoil pack. Ashwagandha is used in Ayurvedic medicine as a powder, decoction, medicated wine, mixed with clarified butter, combined with honey or sugar syrupor as a medicated oil. The most common form is as an alcoholic extract or capsules, of the powdered root. Known as Indian ginseng, Ashwagandha Root is traditionally used for stress relief and exhaustion and to improve endurance. It is adaptogenic, mildly sedative, and rejuvenative. It is excellent for coughs, infertility, impotence, insomnia, nervous tension, rheumatism, and stress. Its reputation is that of an herb that inhibits aging and nutures mental clarity. This herb's usage is ancient in India. It is used externally for tumors, inflammation, arthritis, and a wide range of skin and infectious diseases, and internally as a pain killing tea. The shoots and seeds are also used as food and to thicken milk. Traditonally taken by women as pre-birth preparation, Ashwagandha has been shown to regenerate hormones and stabilize. In a recent study, this herb was given to 30 mental patients suffering from anxiety neurosis in doses of 40 ml/day for one month. At the end of the month, most of the anxiety disorders, panic attacks and similar mood phobias, had disappeared. In trials by American psychiatrists, this herb had been found useful for the treatment of manic depression, alcoholic paranoia, and schizophrenia. http://www.ayurvedainfo.com/Ashwag.html: Ashwagandha is an adpatogenic herb that supports the body's nervous system and tissues.

Marjoram Leaf C/S (Origanum marjorana) 1 lb: C
|
This is Starwest's nitrogen-flushed double wall silverfoil pack. Sweet Marjoram is an Old World perennial aromatic herb of the mint family, cultivated in gardens for flavoring of various kinds of recipes. Theclosely related European pot, or wild, marjoram (Origanum vulgare) has similar uses and is the spice usually sold as oregano, although other species may be called oregano. The generic names Marjorana and Origanum are frequently interchanged. Dried marjoram and thyme are called the 'sausage herbs,' and are extensively used throughout Europe. Marjoram and bay leaves are combined in innumerable meat and vegetable dishes. Marjoram exhibits germicidal activity in lab tests, and was formerly used as a mild antiseptic. The dried leaves and flowers are considered medicinal, as is Marjoram oil. Infuse as a tea for colds and headaches. Add a decoction to bath water as a relaxant. Use in potpourri and scented pillows. The tops yield origanum oil, once used medicinally but more recently for perfuming soaps. Grieve's classic 'A Modern Herbal': 'The medicinal qualities of the oil extracted from Sweet Marjoram are similar to that of the Wild Marjoram. In the commencement of measles, it is useful in producing a gentle perspiration and bringing out the eruption, being given in the form of a warm infusion, which is also valuable in spasms, colic, and to give relief from pain in dyspeptic complaints. An infusion made from the fresh plant will relieve nervous headache, by virtue of the camphoraceous principle contained in the oil.'

Paper Mulberry Fruit (Broussonetia papyrifera; Zhu Shi Zi) 5:1 Extract Powder 100 gm: V
|
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 toensure 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. These take an extra week to deliver.

Quality Cure by Supernatural - 500g: G
|
The usual practice of flushing or leaching the nutrients from the crop for final curing or drying always leaves the plant material soaking wet, which adds days to the time it takes to evenly dry or cure. This added moisture causes essential oils to break down by 'sweating out'. This gives the finished product a darker green undesirable appearance, including a weaker fragrance, flavor and quality.Supernatural Quality Cure safely and quickly removes excess water from the plant by reversing the plants natural transpiration process. This ensures a product that is a lighter green and of the freshest quality. Use 2 tbs per gallon of water and saturate the growing media 12 hours before harvest.
