Caraway has a spicy past: It was used in ancient times as an aphrodisiac in love potions. History: Caraway is an annual or biennial herb with finely divided leaves and slender stems that grow from one to two feet in height and are topped by small white flowers. The plant has long taproots that can effectively break up and aerate heavy soils. It is native to the Old World and had been used in the Middle East for five thousand yearyears before its introduction to Europe in the thirteenth century. Caraway grows wild in Europe and temperate parts of Asia and was naturalized in the United States and Great Britain. It is cultivated commercially in Morocco, Holland and England for culinary and medicinal purposes. An herb with a pedigree, Caraway has been found in the remains of Stone Age meals, Egyptian tombs and ancient caravan stops along the Silk Road. Its botanical name, according to the first-century naturalist, Pliny, was derived from Caria, an ancient region of Asia Minor, and the name Caraway comes down to us from ancient Arabic peoples who called the seeds karawya, the name they still bear in the East. Years ago, Caraway was believed to have magnetic properties, and potions were used to attract a person's love. Moreover, Caraway Seeds were sprinkled on people's most prized possessions to protect them from theft or at least magically hold any would-be thief in place until the owner returned. Caraway Seeds were widely known for their mildly spicy, aromatic flavor that were not only used in herbal medicine, helping to relieve digestive ailments (Dioscorides even prescribed Caraway for ''pale-faced girls''), but it has also been an important ingredient in baked goods, soups, salads, cordials, confectionery, soaps and perfumery. The typical fragrance of Caraway is produced by carvone, which comprises much of th |

This herb is BULK DISCOUNTED in our 10 lb & 25 lb bulk packs. To find the bulk packs, just copy and paste the herb name into our Search, or refer to our Bulk By The Kilo & Ton category. We use only 100% Gluten-free, Vegetable Cellulose ''00'' capsules for all of our encapsulated products. We offer both bulk powder and capsules. Obviously our bulk bottles are bulk powder, not capsules, but the capsule weight is included to give you a way of judging the recommended dosage. Centaury - Botanical Powder -- Approximately 600 mg. each capsule. 1/2 teaspoon of powder is about equal to one capsule. Powder can be consumed by sprinkling it over your food or mixing it with a syrup such as maple or chocolate. You could also mix it with orange juice. The citric acid in the orange juice will help to mask any unpleasant powder tastes. Other common names: Centaury Gentian, Century, Centory, Red Centaury, Filwort, Feverwort, Lesser Centaury, Christ's Ladder, Canchalagua, Bitter Herb, Common Centaury Centaury has been used mainly as a tonic for the gastrointestinal tract that helps to expel excess gas and relieve bloating, heartburn, dyspepsia, poor appetite, constipation and colic. Centaury is also believed to cleanse toxins from the liver, kidneys and gallbladder and to purify the bloodstream. History: Centaury includes several varieties that are native to Europe, North Africa and the Americas, and all are used mainly to improve the gastrointestinal system. It is an annual or biennial with a fibrous, woody root that puts up a stiff, erect stem from a rosette base which may grow to a height of twenty inches (depending upon the species and geographic location) and bears pale green, smooth, lance-shaped leaves crowned by flat clusters of rose-colored, star-like flowers. The plant will survive in both dry and moist pastures, fields and waste places in neutral-to-alkaline soil in full sun and loves light. Centaury's botanical and specific names, Erythraea, are derived from the Greek word, erythros, which means ''red,'' obviously referring to the color of the flowers, and the names Centaurium and Centaury come from ''Chiron,'' the half-man, half-horse centaur of Greek mythology, who was famous for his skill with herbal medicines after he cured himself of a wound received from a poisoned arrow. In ancient times the plant was primarily used to draw out snake poisons and infections, as well as a treatment for fevers. Centaury was recognized as a drug in the United States National Formulary, a reference book for pharmacists, and many people have enjoyed its medicinal qualities when taken as an aperitif wine (vermouth) to aid the proper digestion of food. The whole herb is generally collected in the wild in July, when just breaking into flower and dried for use in herbal medicines. The plant's slight odor disappears when dried. Some of the constituents in Centaury include a bitter principle (erythro-centaurin), a bitter glucoside (erytaurin), v |

The citric acid in the orange juice will help to mask any unpleasant powder tastes. Other common names: Coffee Weed, Succory, Blue Dandelion, Garden Endive, Wild Succory, Hendibeh, Blue Sailors If you thought Chicory was only a rich, caffeine-free coffee substitute, think again! The herb's diuretic and laxative properties have been used for thousands of years as a purifying tonic for the blood, liver and kidneys, and it will also help to counteract stomach acid after eating too much rich food. Recent studies show promise for Chicory Root in the area of good heart health by fighting fat and cholesterol in the blood and controlling rapid heartbeat. History: Chicory is a rather scruffy-looking, weedy perennial that is native to Europe, and it was imported to the United States during the eighteenth century by early colonists. It is so plentiful that it is almost believed to be indigenous to North America, where it grows cultivated and wild and may be found in fields, pastures, marginal areas and even invades lawns and gardens. The leaves at the plant's base are large and hairy, somewhat resembling those of a dandelion, giving Chicory one of its common names, Blue Dandelion. It has been suggested that another of its common names, Succory, is of Latin derivation, from succurrere, meaning ''to run under'' because of the depth to which the root penetrates. From the base, many two- to three-foot, stick-like stems arise, producing widely spaced foliage and milky sap; and bright, almost iridescent, blue flowers bloom on the stems, as if stapled to the wrong plant. Chicory will grow in almost any soil but prefers rich, well-drained, neutral-to-alkaline soil in sun. The rootstock is light yellow outside and white inside and also contains a bitter, milky juice, and the entire plant has been used in herbal medicine (primarily as a cleansing and toning herb) for thousands of years. The ancient Romans used Chicory as a blood purifier and also as a food, and it has remained an important crop throughout continental Europe to this day. The sixteenth century herbalist, Parkinson, described Chicory as a ''fine, cleansing, jovial plant,'' and French |

Powder can be consumed by sprinkling it over your food or mixing it with a syrup such as maple or chocolate. You could also mix it with orange juice. The citric acid in the orange juice will help to mask any unpleasant powder tastes. Other common names: Chinese Parsley, Cilantro, Coriander, Koriandrum Cilantro Leaf acts mainly on the digestive system. For thousands of years, it has been used to improve the appetite, relieve flatulence and indigestion, kill bacteria and even make your food taste better. The volatile oil in Cilantro Leaf also appears to be an effective anti-inflammatory that safely eases the pain of arthritis, rheumatism and sore muscles. History: Cilantro Leaf grows on the Coriander plant, a native of the Mediterranean regions of southern Europe, southwestern Asia and northern Africa, that now grows in Europe and North and South America. It is a small, annual ornamental that reaches about two to three feet in height and grows on both cultivated and waste ground, thriving in moist, well-drained soil in a sunny position, but those plants cultivated solely for their leaves (Cilantro) do best in partial shade. Cilantro Leaf resembles the parsley leaf, but becomes more jagged and is much smaller and more tender. The plant prefers a cool, damp springtime, followed by a hot, dry summer. All parts of the plant (both the seeds [Coriander]and leaves) have an extremely pungent and disagreeable scent, but upon drying, the Coriander seeds, which are also harvested for their sweet, spicy flavor and medicinal qualities, lose their odor and become more and more fragrant the longer they are dried. Coriander seeds have similar medicinal properties as the leaf of the plant, but there are slightly different applications. The leaves are rich in volatile oil and are gathered when young for commercial uses in herbal medicines and cuisines. One of the world's oldest known herbs, Cilantro Leaf has been an important medicinal herb that supports good digestion for over three thousand years and was mentioned in Sanskrit texts, ancient Egyptian papyri, The Bible (where it was compared to manna) and in the writings of the Greek physician, Hippocrates. The first-century Roman scholar, Pliny, claimed that the best Cilantro came from Egypt, where, no doubt, the Israelites gained their knowledge of its properties. The botanical name, |

Cinnamon - Botanical Extract 10:1 -- Approximately 600 mg. each capsule. 1/2 teaspoon of powder is about equal to one capsule. Powder can be consumed by sprinkling it over your food or mixing it with a syrup such as maple or chocolate. You could also mix it with orange juice. The citric acid in the orange juice will help to mask any unpleasant powder tastes. Other common names: Cinnamon Bark, Sweet Wood Diabetics take heart! Recent U.S.D.A. reports demonstrate that extracts of Cinnamon increase insulin activity, enhancing the breakdown of glucose and improving blood sugar concentrations. Daily Cinnamon consumption may lead to dramatic reductions in blood sugar, cholesterol and triglycerides by as much as twenty percent. When added to the time-honored value of Cinnamon as an antiseptic, astringent and stimulant that will also relieve nausea, flatulence and diarrhea, you'll know why it is such a valuable addition to your herb closet. History: The Cinnamon tree is an evergreen that grows in the tropical rain forests of India, Sri Lanka (formerly Ceylon), the Philippines and the West Indies. Cinnamon was first recorded in China in 2700 B.C., and ancient Egyptians included Cinnamon in their embalming mixtures, used it in medicines, as well as a flavoring for food. The Romans were known to pay dearly for it as an expensive commodity, and Cinnamon is credited to be one of the spices that spurred world exploration, playing a major role in colonial expansion. When the Portuguese invaded Sri Lanka after reaching India in 1536, the Sinhalese king paid them annual tributes of Cinnamon, and after the Dutch later captured the island, they established a system of cultivation that exists to this day. Much new research is being conducted into the medicinal benefits of Cinnamon, and there are new breakthroughs in the areas of diabetes and melanoma research. Two chemicals extracted from Cinnamon (camphornin and cinnamonin) have been shown in laboratory tests to thwart the growth of liver cancer and melanoma cells. In addition to its great medicinal properties, Cinnamon is a pungent, sweet herb that has been used as a condiment to flavor and preserve food and add spice to wines. Commercially, Cinnamon is used in oral hygiene products, soft drinks and in the perfume industry. Some of Cinnamon's chemical constituents include cinnamaldehyde, tannin, mannitol, beta-carotene, calcium, chromium, copper, iodine, iron, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, es |

Powder can be consumed by sprinkling it over your food or mixing it with a syrup such as maple or chocolate. You could also mix it with orange juice. The citric acid in the orange juice will help to mask any unpleasant powder tastes. Other common names: Wood Spider, Grapple Plant For the pain and inflammation of back pain, arthritis, gout and rheumatism, try Devil's Claw! At the same time, you may also benefit from better digestion and the relief of bloating, excess water weight and puffiness. History: Devil's Claw is a trailing perennial vine that grows wild to a length of about five feet. It is native to the Transvaal of South Africa, where it has been popularly embraced for over 250 years by the various cultures (including Hottentots, Bantus and Bushmen) as an appetite stimulant and treatment for fevers, arthritis, sores and boils. It grows in waste places and on roadsides in sandy soils, devoid of other vegetation. The barbed and thorny fruits that resemble hooks or claws give the plant its name, but its medicinal properties are found in the tuber and root. Devil's Claw root has only recently been introduced into North American herbal medicine, and it is currently very popular in Europe. Pharmacologists have discovered that Devil's Claw contains chemicals like those in many other pain-relieving herbs that stimulate circulation and carry inflammatory chemicals away from affected tissues. The plant contains at least three bitters, including the iridoid glycosides called harpagide, harpagosid, and procumbide, and also includes luteolin, oleanolic acid, cinnamic acid, calcium, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, selenium and zinc. Beneficial Uses: Devil's Claw is an anti-inflammatory and painkilling agent that has demonstrated very positive results when tested for relief of lower back pain. The harpagide content in Devil's Claw has exhibited anti-inflammatory activity and has been thought to bring relief to sufferers of arthritis, rheumatism, carpal tunnel syndrome, gout and tendonitis. The herb has also demonstrated significant improvement in people who had the most severe, radiating pain with numbness in the extremities. Like all bitters, Devil's Claw has been used for many years as an aid to good digestion and improving the appetite. The glycosides stimulate the stomach production of acid, thus |

It is a perennial plant that grows up to three or four feet tall and is said to be a native of the alpine and sub-alpine pastures of central and southern Europe. There are about 180 species of Gentians with flowers of varied color that are distributed throughout the temperate regions and high mountains of the world; however, their medicinal applications are virtually interchangeable. Gentiana lutea, or Yellow Gentian, is perhaps the most remarkable of the species which compose this genus, both for its beauty and great comparative size. From its thick, long, branching, perennial rhizome, an erect, round stem rises to the height of three or four feet, bearing opposite, sessile, ovate leaves of a bright-green color. The lower leaves, which spring from the root, are narrowed at their base into the form of a petiole. The flowers are large and beautiful, of a yellow color, peduncled, and placed in whorls at the axils of the upper leaves. The herb is widely cultivated in China and is frequently found in the mountains of Spain, Portugal, the Pyrenees, Sardinia and Corsica, the Apennines, Bosnia and the Balkan States. The botanical name of Gentian is derived from Gentius, an ancient botanist and King of Illyria (180-167 B.C.), who, according to Pliny and Dioscorides, discovered its medicinal value. In both Chinese and Korean, the terms for Gentian can be translated literally as ''dragon gallbladder herb,'' which attests to Gentian's ability to treat fiery inflammations of the gallbladder. In Chinese medicine, other species of Gentian have been used and have similar constituents |

Horehound - Botanical Extract 4:1 -- Approximately 600 mg. each capsule. 1/2 teaspoon of powder is about equal to one capsule. Powder can be consumed by sprinkling it over your food or mixing it with a syrup such as maple or chocolate. You could also mix it with orange juice. The citric acid in the orange juice will help to mask any unpleasant powder tastes. Other common names: Marrubio, White Horehound, Hoarhound, Marrubium Horehound has been a popular cough and cold remedy since ancient Egyptian times. As a potent expectorant, it will promote mucus and ease the pain of a dry, non-productive, hacking cough. Try it for bronchitis, indigestion and whooping cough. History: Horehound is a hardy perennial and medicinal mint that may grow to a height of two feet, with all the aboveground parts of this herbaceous plant used in herbal medicine. Like many other plants of the Labiatae family, Horehound flourishes in waste places and by roadsides, needing little care. The leaves are wrinkled, opposite, petiolate and covered with white, felted hairs, which give them a wooly appearance. They have a curious, musky smell, which is diminished by drying and lost on keeping. Some claim that Horehound is native to Morocco, but others claim it is indigenous to Great Britain, where it flourishes and is cultivated in gardens for making tea and candy for use in coughs and colds. It is also brewed there and made into Horehound ale, an appetizing and healthful beverage. What is certain is that the plant was carried throughout the Old World and later to Europe and North America by traders and settlers. Ancient Egyptian priests honored Horehound as a treatment for coughs and colds, calling it ''eye of the star,'' and the Greek physician, Hippocrates, esteemed its curative powers and even thought it would break magical spells. Horehound's botanical genus, Marrubium, is said to be derived from the Hebrew, marrob, which translates as ''bitter juice,'' and it is thought that Horehound was one of the original bitter herbs of the Jewish Passover meal. Historically, Horehound has had many uses, but its primary reputation rests with its expectorant abilities that relieve lung congestion, although the sixteenth-century herbalist, John Gerard recommended it (in addition to its uses for coughs and colds) in his 1597 Herball or Generall Historie of Plantes as a remedy for ''those that have drunk poyson or have been bitten of serpents,'' and it was also administered for ''mad |

The citric acid in the orange juice will help to mask any unpleasant powder tastes. Other common names: Mo Yao, Makkul, Mukul, Myrrh Tree, Balsamodendron, Commiphora, Molmol, Mirra, Bola For four thousand years, Myrrh has been known as a powerful natural antiseptic, antibacterial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory and antifungal that combats infections of the lungs, skin, and urinary and intestinal tracts. Since antiquity, Myrrh has been used to relieve pain and alleviate sinusitis, gingivitis, periodontal disease and sore throat, and has long been used to help bolster the body's natural immune defenses. Myrrh is also a natural deodorizer and can help to sweeten the breath. History: Myrrh is an aromatic, gummy substance (oleo-gum resin), exuded and harvested from certain small trees and shrubs that are generally deciduous and spiny with a spread of sixteen feet and producing yellow and red flowers. Botanically, there is still uncertainty about the origin and identity of the various species (which include Commiphora molmol - Somalian, Commiphora myrrha - Common myrrh, Commiphora schimperi - Arabian, Commiphora gileadensis - Mecca myrrh, Commiphora habessinica - Abyssinian/Yemeni myrrh, Commiphora makul - mukul or guggul from India, but they are all thought to be native to the desert scrublands of eastern Africa, northern Somalia, Yemen, Arabia and India. The thorny trees thrive in well-drained soil in full sun in warm climates, and the pungent oleo-gum resin that is collected from cut branches is dried to a solid and has been regarded as one of the great treasures of the East for thousands of years for use in herbal medicines, perfumes, incense, fumigation and religious rituals. Myrrh was an important ingredient in the Egyptian embalming process of 2000 B.C., and ancient Egyptian women burned Myrrh pellets to rid their homes of fleas. The composition varies slightly from one species to another, but it has been a standard medicament in the Middle East since Biblical times for infected wounds and bronchial and digestive complaints. The gum's name is derived from the Arabic, mur, meaning ''bitter,'' and it was also widely used in the Middle East as an analgesic. Myrrh was especially ass |
