This is Frontier's nitrogen-flushed double wall silverfoil pack. Some Frontier packs are double wall wax-lined paper. Thyme is basic to all European cuisines. It is used for everything from thyme honey, butter, jelly, vinegars, vegetables, soups to meat and poultry. Thyme gives subtle, pleasing flavor to almost any savory dish, and is particularly nice when cooked slowly. Thyme is one of the key ingredients in bouquet garni, Herbs de Provence and Fines Herbes. In Britain, thyme is the most popular culinary herb besides mint. In Central Europe, Thyme is most used for soups, fish, meat, poultry and eggs. Thyme, particularly lemon thyme, is a great addition to herbal vinegar. Thyme is often combined with marjoram for sausages and goes well with bay or boldo leaves. Cheese is sometimes flavoured with thyme. The Jordan condiment zahtar contains thyme. The Egyptian meat-spice mix Dukka contains hazelnut, sesame, cumin, coriander, black pepper and thyme. A Louisiana Blackened fish recipe includes thyme, salt, red pepper, white pepper, oregano, garlic and onion powder. The fish is dipped into molten butter, then coated with the spice mix and fried very quickly at high temperature in a heavy skillet, without any further oil. The idea is to brown the spices quickly, not burn them. Thyme is common in Central American cuisine. Jamaica Jerk, the delicious meat spice mix, often contains thyme. Bees adore the herb and make exquisite honey with it — thyme was planted as ground cover in Mediterranean orchards to lure them into pollinating the fruit trees. In ancient Greece it was strewn in banquet halls as an aphrodisiac, and distilled into ladies' perfume. Thyme is also a significant medicinal herb. The Sumerians used thyme medicinally as far back as 3000 B.C., and it was among the herbs and spices used in ancient Egyptto keep mummies fresh for the afterlife. Thymol, its active ingredient, helps loosen phlegm, combats bronchial spasms, and discourages growth of bacteria. First noted by a German pharmacist in 1725, thymol eventually replaced carbolic acid as a safer, yet effective, antiseptic. Today it's found in such popular over-the-counter products as Listerine mouthwash and Vicks VapoRub. The 1997 Commission E on Phytotherapy and Herbal Substances of the German Federal Institute for Drugs recommends Thyme for 'Symptoms of bronchitis and whooping cough. Catarrhs of the upper respiratory tracts.' 'Dosage: 1 - 2 g of herb for 1 cup of tea, several times a day as needed; 1 - 2 g fluidextract 1 - 3 times daily; 5 percent infusion for compresses. Mode of Administration: Cut herb, powder, liquid extract or dry extract for infusions and other galenical preparations. Liquid and solid medicinal forms for internal and external application.' 'Combinations with other herbs that have expectorant action could be appropriate. Actions: Bronchoantispasmodic; Expectorant; Antibacterial.'

Compare to any nebulizing system for price, beauty and value. Glass piece is hand made. The well is precision crafted and performance tested. A few drops of oil can be added to the well, or the bottle can be inserted for long lasting supply. All components are dishwasher safe. Kit includes: Diffuser well, Daffodil glass piece, Pump with electronic variable control, Tubing, 2 pipettes. This is a high output nebulizer capable of diffusing equal to, or more than, comparable medical devices. It is strongly recommended that a timer be used to control on/off settings. A timer will help prevent excessive air saturation and overpowering aroma. Wasting precious oils can be very costly. Digital Diffuser Timer: Check the Scent Diffuser section for this item, or just punch 'timer' into the Search Catalog function. This item is not included with this Electronic Diffuser, but is a useful tool to use with it. Digital programmable timers offer maximum control for lifestyle Aromatherapy. It is difficult to set an exact diffusion rate or create the constant output desired on any style of nebulizer, especially when every oil has a different weight (viscosity). Solve the never ending battle of turning the diffuser on / off, changing high / low. Don't worry about turning it off when you leave the house. The timer will preserve those precious oils automatically. If the power goes out, it maintains your settings. It has up to 8 on / off settings per day. Program it to come on a few times in the morning and again in the evening when you are home. The digital timer will save energy and money. The cost is comparable to a few bottles of oil, which makes it a very prudent investment. The Digital Diffuser Timer is NOT included with this Electronic Diffuser. Topurchase this item, check the Scent Diffuser section, or just punch 'timer' into the Search Catalog function. -- Pam H, Omaha, NB rated this item 5 out of 5 ''The previous aluminum well (company name omitted) diffuser I had did not seem to work as well as this one. Also, this one does not tip over so easy and it looks prettier. I like to display it in the living room instead of hiding it out of site. I am pleased with my new purchase.'' -- Emily D., Salt Lake City, UT rated this item 5 out of 5 ''Having used several different styles of Nebulizing diffusers in the past, my favorite is the Diffuser World hourglass model. I like turning the bottle upside down in the well and it's heavy. It feels like I bought something of value. It's not made of cheep plastic. It looks pretty. It's easy to clean and works well. I am always worried about breaking the glass piece, but I know something different would not be as pretty.'' |

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. These take an extra week to deliver. |

This is Frontier's nitrogen-flushed double wall silverfoil pack. Some Frontier packs are double wall wax-lined paper. Generally used as a strong decoction or food additive. Confirming much of what the classical treatise on Chinese herbal medicine, the Shen Nung Pen Tsao Ching, says, modern Chinese research suggests that lignans, found in the seeds of schisandra berries, regenerate liver tissue damaged by harmful influences such as viral hepatitis and alcohol. Lignans lower blood levels of serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT), a marker for infective hepatitis and other liver disorders. Schisandra fruit may also have an adaptogenic action, much like the herb ginseng, but with weaker effects. Laboratory work suggests that schisandra may improve work performance, build strength, and help to reduce fatigue. Nutrition Science News: 1/2001: In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), schisandra berrieshave been used predominantly for the lungs and kidneys as an astringent tonic to arrest mucous discharges, alleviate spontaneous sweating and check urinary and reproductive secretions such as in urinary incontinence and spermatorrhea, an involuntary loss of semen. More recently, the focus of schisandra research has been on its use in treating diabetes mellitus. Additionally, a protective effect on cardiovascular tissue insulted with chemical agents or ischemia has also been shown in vivo. As well, anti-inflammatory activity has been reported in in vitro, animal models, and clinical studies. The most important area, however, is in treating liver damage in conditions such as hepatitis. Schisandra is included in the pharmacopoeias of China, Japan, North and South Korea, and Russia, places where the plant grows naturally. Pharmacological research on schisandra has been conducted since the 1950s, when it was reported to exhibit central nervous system stimulatory activity, enhance mental and physical capacities and improve cardiovascular function. These studies, mostly conducted in the former Soviet Union, characterize schisandra as an adaptogen and resulted in its popular use as a tonic. Protects The Liver In China, crude schisandra berries, their preparations, and individual constituents are widely used for progressive hepatic degeneration due to viral hepatitis or chemical challenge—indications for which schisandra is well documented. In the 1970s, trials in China on patients with hepatitis resulting from either viral infection or chemical exposure reported schisandra preparations lowered elevated levels of serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (SGPT), an enzyme found primarily in the liver that is released into the bloodstream as the result of liver damage. This research focused on the antihepatotoxic effects of lignans isolated from the unhydrolyzed fraction of the seed oil. At least 13 of these lignans have been reported to enhance the hepatic glutathione antioxidant system and have been reported to be beneficial in treating viral- and chem |
