Cloves (Syzygium aromaticum; Eugenia caryophyllata; Ding Xiang) 5:1 Extract Powder 100 gm: V
Cloves are the small, reddish-brown flower buds of the tropical evergreen tree Syzygium aromaticum, believed indigenous to the Moluccas, or Spice Islands, of Indonesia. As early as 200 BC, envoys from Java to the Han-dynasty court of China brought cloves that were customarily held in the mouth to perfume the breath during audiences with the emperor. During the late Middle Ages, cloves were used in Europe to preserve, flavor, and garnish food. Cloves, by weight, exceeded the value of precious metal in the early spice trade. Strong of aroma and hot and pungent in taste, cloves are used to flavor meats, rice dishes and baked goods. Cloves are elemental in the traditional cuisines of China, Sri Lanka, North India, the Middle East, and throughout Arabia and North Africa. Europeans use cloves for sweets, stewed fruits, rice, breads and pickles. In Europe and the United States Christmas is celebrated with clove-flavored wassail and mincemeat. Chinese five-spice powder contains cloves, as do many curries, garam masala, Arabic baharat, Moroccan ras el hanout, Tunisian gâlat dagga, Ethiopian berebere, French quatre épices, Mexican molé sauces, and, of course, Worcestershire sauce. Curried Potatoes and Clove Rice: http://www.vegweb.com/food/rice/1502.shtml: 6 sweet potatoes, sliced thinly 2 onions, chopped 4 cloves, minced Indian curry powder Cayenne pepper salt & pepper Vegetable oil Basmanti rice (for 4 people) Clove powder 1 cup Raisins (optional) In a large pot, boil the potatoes until they are almost ready. In a large skillet, heat enough vegetable oil to cover the bottom of your pan. Add the garlic and onions and fry them on medium heat until they are soft. Add the potatoes and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Then, add curry powder to taste, usually requires quite a bit, depending on the potency of the curry. Sprinkle with Cayenne, just to add a bit of a bite! Allow to simmer, stirring regluarly until the rice is ready. In another pot, prepare the rice. Once it is complete, sprinkle with clove powder, use sparingly as it is quite strong, and add 1 cup of raisins. Mix well, and serve as a side to the potatoes. N.B. If you dice up some cucumbers and mix them with non-dairy yoghurt, it is a really nice side to take some of the bite off of the spice and to alternate between dishes. Cinnamon-Clove Barbecue Sauce: http://www.recipegoldmine.com/grillsauce/grillsauce63.html: 2 medium onions, sliced 1 C. condensed tomato soup 3/4 C. water 3 T. vinegar 2 T. Worcestershire sauce 1 tsp. salt ¼ tsp. cinnamon 1 tsp. paprika ¼ tsp. black pepper 1 tsp. chili powder 1/8 tsp. cloves Combine all ingredients; heat and use to baste meat or fish. Makes 2 cups. Recipe can be varied with an orange juice base, granulated orange peel, sage, honey and cloves. The 1997 Commission E on Phytotherapy and Herbal Substances of the German Federal Institute for Drugs recommends Cloves for 'Inflammatory changes |

The 1997 Commission E on Phytotherapy and Herbal Substances of the German Federal Institute for Drugs recommends Cloves for 'Inflammatory changes of the oral and pharyngeal mucosa. In dentistry, for topical anesthesia.' 'Dosage: For mouth washes corresponding to 1 - 5 percent essential oil. In dentistry, undiluted essential oil. Mode of Administration: Powdered, ground, or whole herb to obtain the essential oil, and other galenical preparations for topical use.' 'Actions: Antiseptic; Antibacterial; Antifungal; Antiviral; Topical anesthetic; Antispasmodic.' Grieve's classic 'A Modern Herbal': 'The most stimulating and carminative of all aromatics; given in powder or infusion for nausea emesis, flatulence, languid indigestion and dyspepsia, and used chiefly to assist the action of other medicines. The medicinal properties reside in the volatile oil. The oil must be kept in dark bottles in a cool place. If distilled with water, salt must be added to raise the temperature of ebullition and the same Cloves must be distilled over and over again to get their full essence.' 'The oil is frequently adulterated with fixed oil and oil of Pimento and Copaiba. As a local irritant it stimulates peristalsis.' 'It is a strong germicide, a powerful antiseptic, a feeble local anaesthetic applied to decayed teeth, and has been used with success as a stimulating expectorant in phthisis and bronchial troubles.' 'Fresh infusion of Cloves contains astringent matter as well as the volatile oil. The infusion and Clove water are good vehicles for alkalies and aromatics.' King's 1898 Dispensatory: 'Aromatic, stimulant, and irritant. Used to allay vomiting and sickness at stomach, to stimulate the digestive functions, and to improve the flavor or operation of othe |

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: Northern Prickly Ash, Suterberry, Suterberry Bark, Yellow Wood Berries, Pellitory Bark, Prickly Ash Berry, Toothache Bush, Toothache Tree, Angelica Tree, Yellow Wood Troubled by poor circulation? Prickly Ash Bark is a traditional treatment for all common ailments caused by insufficient circulation, including leg cramps, varicose veins, cold hands and feet and the feeling of cold throughout the body. The increased circulation has also been used to relieve the joint aches and pains of chronic rheumatism and arthritis. History: Prickly Ash is a beautiful, deciduous tree that is a native of North America, growing anywhere from four to about twenty-five feet in height and may be found in woodlands and on riverbanks, thriving in damp, fertile, well-drained soil in sun or shade. The Northern Prickly Ash is one of over two hundred species of the botanical genus, Zanthoxylum, whose name is said to be derived from the Greek words, zanthos and xylum (?a???? ?????), meaning ''yellow wood.'' True to its name, the Prickly Ash's branchlets are loaded with thorns and also produce alternately-growing, pinnate leaves, and the bruised foliage exudes a delicious, resinous citrus-orange-like fragrance. The evergreen tree (or shrub) also bears small, yellowish-green flowers that grow in clusters from April through June, before the leaves appear, and they are followed by small, red, edible berries. Prickly Ash Bark was widely used by numerous Native American tribes as a treatment for toothache, rheumatism, gonorrhea, sore throat and as a wash for itchy skin. In the case of toothache, a piece of the bark was apparently inserted into the tooth cavity to ease the ache, but it was never clear whether the relief was due to the actual effect on the pain or distraction of attention caused by irritation produced by the bark (although it is interesting to note that rubbing the berries on the skin is said to produce a numbing effect). Native Americans shared their knowledge of the herb with settlers, and Prickly Ash soon became a popular remedy for rheumatism and toothache (giving the tree several o |

The citric acid in the orange juice will help to mask any unpleasant powder tastes. Other common names: Raspberry Leaf, Bramble, Hindberry, Reapberry, Bramble of Mount Ida Red Raspberry is rich in minerals and vitamins that promote the health of hair, skin, nails, bones and teeth. It has an old reputation as a woman's friend that helps to tone the uterine muscles (particularly valuable during labor and delivery and recovery after birth). Moreover, Red Raspberry is said to provide relief for heavy cramping and excessive bleeding during menstruation. History: Red Raspberry is a deciduous bramble with perennial roots, native to many parts of Europe, but has wide distribution from the polar regions down through temperate North America, Europe and Asia, following higher elevations as it reaches the more southerly latitudes. Red Raspberry is a shrub with erect, spiny, woody, thorny stems (called canes) that bear irregularly-toothed, pale green leaves and pretty white flowers, followed by deep red fruit, and it may grow to a height of six feet. The berries are edible and highly nutritious, with a delicate, complex flavor. The brambles may be found growing wild in dry or moist woods, thickets, untended fields and roadsides, but prefers moist, slightly-acid, well-drained loam, rich in humus, in full sun or partial shade. Fossil evidence shows that Raspberries were part of the human diet from very early times, and their presence is noted as both a food and part of herbal medicine in the ancient writings of the Greeks, including Aeschylus (c.525-456 B.C.), and the physician, Hippocrates (460-357 B.C.). The Romans used Red Raspberry to treat sore mouths and inflammation of the bowel, and it was mentioned in the works of Propertius (c.50-16 B.C.). The leaves, bark and fruits are employed herbal medicine. It is said that early settlers brought Red Raspberry with them, but there was already a hardier variety growing in North America, where several Native Americans were using it as a food and in herbal remedies. Red Raspberry has been included for hundreds of years in folk medicine as an astringent and women's aid and was considered important enough to be listed in the United States Pha |

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: Curled Dock, Sour Dock, Narrow Dock, Curly Dock, Rumex, Garden Patience Yellow Dock is a tonic that has been used to cleanse the system of toxic wastes and help to relieve virtually all disorders associated with impurities in the blood. It promotes clear, healthy skin and alleviates eczema, pimples, psoriasis and acne. While cleansing the liver, it has helped to treat jaundice, hepatitis and other liver disorders. Its laxative effects promote good colon health, easing constipation, clearing bodily wastes and improving skin eruptions caused by constipation. Moreover, its rich iron content helps to enrich blood quality and relieve anemia. History: Yellow Dock is one species of a widespread tribe of wayside weeds that are native to Europe and now naturalized and growing wild throughout the United States and other temperate regions of the world, where it may be found growing in roadside ditches and waste places. As a matter of fact, it is often seen in disturbed soils at the edges of roads, railroad beds and parking lots. The plant has long roots that are difficult to eradicate once well established and are considered serious invasive weeds and subject to control as pests in several countries, particularly in Australia. It has even been designated an ''injurious weed'' under the United Kingdom Weeds Act of 1959. Its yellow, foot-long, forking taproots send up a smooth, slender, three-foot stem, bearing lance-shaped, smooth leaves with wavy or crisped margins, and the lower leaves are larger and longer than the upper, forming a large basal rosette. This herbaceous perennial also bears numerous, pale green, drooping flowers that bloom in June and July, and the plant thrives in rich, moist, heavy soil in sun or partial shade in temperate weather (it grows poorly in hot weather). Yellow Dock's botanical genus, Rumex, is derived from an old Latin word meaning ''lance,'' referring to the shape of its leaves, but it is interesting to note that Docks were one ranked as members of the genus, Lapathum, which is derived from the Greek word, lapazein, which (more appropriately) means |
