Thought to be nature's best immune system enhancer, Echinacea Angustifolia is believed to be the most powerful natural antibiotic. Echinacea’s antiseptic, antiviral and antifungal qualities help to stimulate the body's resistance to infection, diseases, fever, blood poisoning, common colds and flu. Echinacea Angustifolia is the ''must-have'' herb in your herbal medicine cabinet. History: Echinacea Angustifolia is an herbaceous, perennial plant that is native to the plains of the American West and has been widely cultivated in Europe, where it is thought to be perhaps the most powerful natural antibiotic. The hairy plant bears narrow, lance-shaped leaves and long-stalked, purple, rose or white flowers with drooping petals. The two-foot plant may be found growing in barrens, prairies and other dry, open places, thriving in rich, well-drained soil in sun. Echinacea's name is derived from the Greek, echinos, meaning ''hedgehog'' or ''sea urchin,'' referring to the sharp pointed bracts of the receptacles, giving the herb one of its many common names, ''Hedgehog.'' There are three species of this genus that include many of the same applications and properties (E. purpurea, E. angustifolia and E. pallida), and they are frequently used interchangeably. Native Americans, however, particularly favored Echinacea Angustifolia as a cure-all and used it more than any other plant for the treatment of illness and injury, including snakebites, fevers, wounds, burns, toothaches, enlarged glands and infections. The early colonists adopted Echinacea as a home remedy for colds and flu, and the herb became popular in American herbal and traditional medicine. It was included in the National Formulary, the pharmacists' reference book, from 1915 through 1950, and although interest in Echinacea declined in America after the 1930s, it was ''rediscovered'' in th |

Other common names: Black Elder, Boor Tree, Ellanwood, Elder, Ellhorn, European Elder, Pipe Tree, German Elder, Bountry, Englishman's Grape, Black-berried European Elder, Elder Bush ''Elder be the Lady's tree, burn it not - or cursed you'll be.'' (Ancient rhyme from the pagan belief that held the Elder tree sacred to the Moon Goddess.) Loaded with vitamins A, B and C, Elderberry stimulates the immune system and protects against free radicals that attack healthy cells. At the very first sign of a cold or flu, a regimen of Elderberry should help alleviate the symptoms within seventy-two hours. History: Elderberry is a deciduous, perennial, large shrub (or small tree) that reaches a height and spread of about fifteen feet, but occasionally rising to forty feet. The Elder tree is native to Europe but has been naturalized in the Americas. The leaves are opposite, pinnate with five-to-nine serrate-edged leaflets. They bear large clusters of small white or cream-colored flowers in the late spring and are followed by clusters of small bluish or black berries. Some Elderberry species have lifespans between eighty and one hundred years. The Elder tree prefers rich, moist soil and is usually found in heavily forested areas and on rocky slopes in the temperate and subtropical regions of both hemispheres. The common American Elder (Sambucus canadensis) is native to North America, where Native Americans used it medicinally and in their diets; and its European relative (Sambucus nigra) - both species bearing blue-black berries - have been used in the same manner for thousands of years. The berries provide a very valuable food resource for many birds and butterflies and, of course, herbal medicine. Evidence of its cultivation may be found at Stone Age village sites in Switzerland and Italy. In ancient times, the Elder tree was believed to have mystical properties and was considered good luck. Having an Elder tree near the home was thought to bring happy marriages, prosperity and healthy children. The spirits that lived within the tree protected against disease, evil spirits and all common ailment |

History: As night falls and the moon rises, the Evening Primrose blooms, and a lemon-scented fragrance radiates from its yellow petals. By daybreak, the flowers fade and await the new blossoms that will bloom the next evening. Evening Primrose is a hardy, erect biennial herb that thrives in dry soil and may reach a height of six feet. During its second year, showy yellow flowers appear and bloom in diminished light or in the darkness, and in optimum conditions this ornamental plant will self-seed. Evening Primrose is a North American native that grows in dry meadows from Canada to Texas and east of the Rockies to the Atlantic. It was brought to Europe in the seventeenth century, where it continues to be used in herbal medicine. The entire plant is edible, and it was once a popular food for North American Indians who also used it as a painkiller and as an asthma treatment. The oil derived from the seeds contains rare gamma linolenic acid, mucilage, tannin, lignin, amino acids, calcium, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, essential fatty acids, B-vitamins and vitamin E. Beneficial Uses: Evening Primrose possesses a high content of the rare gamma linolenic acid (GLA) that appears to produce a host of beneficial effects. GLA is an unsaturated fatty acid that assists in the production of prostaglandins, the hormones necessary for many important bodily functions. GLA helps the body produce energy and forms part of the structural fats that comprise the brain, muscle, bone marrow and cell membr |

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: Common Figwort, Carpenter's Square, Figwort Root, Heal-all, Kernelwort, Knotty-rooted Figwort, Scrofula Plant, Rose-noble, Stinking Christopher, Throatwort, Xuan Shen Figwort has been taken both internally and externally as a respected remedy for chronic skin diseases. The herb has been particularly effective in the treatment of lymphatic ailments, especially scrofula, and its diuretic properties have been used to help cleanse the system and eliminate wastes from the kidneys. History: Figwort is a perennial plant, and the species Scrophularia nodosa is native to the Old World but naturalized in North America from Newfoundland to New England. Its closely-related American cousins (Scrophularia marilandica and Scrophularia californica ) are natives of the United States, where they are found in rocky woodlands, thickets and roadsides, and all plants are used in the same manner. Figwort is a shrub that thrives in rich, moist-to-wet soil in sun or partial shade and may reach a height of ten feet. Figwort has a knobby rootstock, erect stem with serrate leaves and dark purple flowers that bloom in the summertime. The plant has an offensive taste and odor. The medicinal uses of the species Scrophularia ningpoensis have been documented since the later Han Dynasty of China (A.D. 25-220), and the herb was revered in Europe for treating skin diseases of all kinds. The English herbalist, Nicholas Culpepper, mentioned it in his English Physitian Enlarged of 1653 as the best remedy for the ''king's evil,'' describing tuberculosis of the lymphatic glands. One of the herb's common names, Scrofula Plant, is derived from its efficacy in successfully treating the disease. Figwort apparently has some nutritious value, because when Cardinal Richelieu laid siege to the French city of La Rochelle from 1627-1628, the Protestant garrison within was reduced to eating and subsisting on the plant. Old herbalists called the plant Scrophularia, and utilized it as a remedy for scrofulous ailments, such as tuberculosis of the lymph glands and other diseases characterized by swellings and eruptions.

The citric acid in the orange juice will help to mask any unpleasant powder tastes. Other common names: Common Flax, Linseed, Lint Bells, Winterlien ''Wherever Flaxseeds become a regular food item among the people, there will be better health'' Mahatma Gandi Flaxseed provides all eight essential amino acids and a wealth of nutrients, including Omega-3 and Omega-6 Essential Fatty Acids, digestive enzymes, protein, vitamins and minerals. Flaxseed is said to help lower cholesterol and blood sugar levels, improve circulation and immune function and also to treat inflammatory disorders. New research indicates that the use of Flaxseed may also help to significantly reduce hot flashes in menopausal women. History: As the source of linen fiber, Flax has been cultivated since at least 5000 B.C., and its importance continues today for its fiber and as a source of oil. Flax is a hardy annual that grows from one to four feet with narrow, hairy leaves and red, white or blue flowers that are followed by spherical capsules (bols), which contain seeds that are rich in oils with linoleic acid. Its history reaches back to the earliest times as a food (the seeds when roasted) and in the making of fine linen cloth. The Flax plant was grown in Palestine before the arrival of the Israelites. The Bible tells us that Rahab in Jericho hid two spies under stems of Flax she had been drying, and Solomon, praised his wife who separated the fibers of the Flax for fine linen. The Egyptians made fine linen clothing and used it for wrapping mummies in the embalming process. The medicinal properties of Flaxseeds were known to the Greeks, as Hippocrates recommended them for inflammations of the mucous membranes and digestive disorders, and in eighth-century France, Charlemagne passed laws requiring the seeds to be consumed to keep his subjects healthy. In North America, the use of Flax dates back to 1617, when L. Hebert, the first farmer in Canada, brought it to New France, and today, the crop grows widely on the prairies of Canada for its oil-rich seeds.

The citric acid in the orange juice will help to mask any unpleasant powder tastes. Other common names: Centella, Indian Pennywort, Brahmi, Chi-hsing, Hydrocotyle To rejuvenate your body and boost your energy, endurance and mental clarity, try Gotu Kola. This time-honored herb has a reputation for alleviating fatigue and depression, treating memory loss and even prolonging life! An ancient proverb claimed, ''Two leaves a day keep old age away.'' History: Gotu Kola is a low-growing, creeping vine that is native to India and may be found in marshy areas and roadside ditches in China, Africa, Sri Lanka and other parts of Southeast Asia. Interestingly, it may also be found in the southeastern part of the United States. In Indian cuisine, it is sometimes served as a salad or cooked vegetable and has also been used for thousands of years in Ayurvedic medicine to revitalize the nerves and brain cells. In Sri Lanka, the leaves are said to be the favored food of elephants (an elephant never forgets?). Historically, in traditional Indian and Chinese medicines, Gotu Kola is considered to be one of the best herbal nerve tonics and a life-enhancer that contributes to long life. It is prominently featured in the Shen Nong Herbal, compiled in China over two thousand years ago, as one of the ''miracle elixirs of life,'' and legend says that the Chinese herbalist, LiChing Yun, who claimed to have lived for 256 years, credited Gotu Kola for his longevity. Gotu Kola is rich in beta-carotene, sterols (campesterol, stigmasterol and sitosterol), saponins (also called triterpenoids), alkaloids, flavonols, saccharides, amino and fatty acids, calcium, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, selenium, zinc and vitamins B1, B2, B3, C and K. Its active ingredients sometimes vary, depending on the geographic area from which the herb is gathered, but it does not contain cola or caffeine, as its name would suggest. Beneficial Uses: This time-honored herb has a reputation for improving concentration and learning ability. It is a restorative tonic for mental decline in old age, because it protects the blood vessels that supply oxygen to the brain and stimulates circulation. It is con |

The citric acid in the orange juice will help to mask any unpleasant powder tastes. Other common names: Red Wine Grape, European Grape Grape Skin supplement is an easy way to enjoy the many health benefits provided by nutritious grapes. Packed with vitamins and minerals, Grape Skin's proanthocynidins are the phytonutrients that are thought to provide a high degree of antioxidant capacity that fights free radical damage in the body. The resveratrol in Grape Skin is said to help fight carcinogens, lower cholesterol, combat cardiovascular disease and diminish damage caused by stroke. History: Grapes appear to have originated in the Mediterannean regions of southern Europe and Middle East, thriving in deep, moist, humus-rich, neutral-to-alkaline soil in sun and warm climates; and the grape's hardiness varies according to the cultivar. Going back thousands of years, the Grape was a wild vine. If untended, it grows like a tree and wraps around anything in its way, like ivy on walls, and different sub-species were created through natural selection, resulting in mutations of the vine. Cultivation of the Grape occurred in pre-historic or early historic times in southwest Asia or southern Transcaucasia (Armenia and Georgia), and cultivation of the domesticated grape, Vitis vinifera, spread to other parts of the Old World over the years. Wine is the fermented juice of Grapes, and it has been used in various cultures for at least 4,500 years, originating most likely in the Middle East. Egyptian records, dating from 2500 B.C., refer to wines, and there are frequent references to wine in the Old Testament. Wine was also used by early Minoan, Greek and Etruscan civilizations, and we can thank the Roman army for introducing the rootstocks and winemaking throughout Europe as they created an expanding Roman Empire. Centuries later, the role of wine for sacramental use in Christian churches helped to maintain the industry after the fall of the Roman Empire. Modern science has now confirmed the health benefits included in the juice, skin and seeds of the Red Grape, and Grape Skin and Red Wine extracts possess high concentrations of proanthocyanidins that confer high antioxidant and free radic |

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: Horsetail Kelp, Knotted Wrack, Marine Algae, Seaweed, Seawrack, Giant Kelp, Brown-Green Algae, Brown-Green Seaweed, Tangleweed, Sugar Wrack, Rockweed Kelp and other seaweeds are the great gift from the sea. Besides its rich iodine content, which is essential for a healthy thyroid, Kelp has a remarkable supply of vital nutrients, amino acids, vitamins and minerals that are key to promoting healthy overall glandular function. Kelp may even help fight obesity and be helpful in weight loss programs. History: Kelp is a common name for leafy algae or seaweed - a nutritious ''vegetable of the sea'' - and is harvested off the coasts of many of the oceans of the world. Kelp carries all the positive qualities of the sea and the numerous, rich elements that the oceans produce. Among its many uses for mankind, nutrition is one of them, and it was usually used as a source of iodine or salt. It is an important part of the diet in Japan, Norway and Scotland; and for vegans (vegetarians who eat no animal products), Kelp supplies vitamin B-12, which is normally found only in animal products). The term Kelp is used to describe a number of brownish-green species, prepared from several species of fucus and laminariae, etc. (including Macrocystis pyrifera, Laminaria digitata and Ascophyllum nodosum, etc.), and they may grow from a few feet to over one hundred feet in length, sometimes growing as much as two feet in one day. They generally grow in enormous beds just below the surface of the water and do not have any roots. Rather, they cling to rocks with ''holdfasts'' (grippers), which are hardy enough to withstand fierce storms. The entire plant is used in herbal medicine. Kelp is particularly rich in iodine and was the original source of iodine, being discovered by Courtois in 1812. It is interesting to note, however, that earlier, in 1750, an English physician, Doctor Russell, burned dried Kelp and used it as a treatment for goiter, and in 1862, a Doctor Dupare employed Kelp as an aid to obesity, two uses that dependend upon Kelp's iodine content.

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: Horsetail Kelp, Knotted Wrack, Marine Algae, Seaweed, Seawrack, Giant Kelp, Brown-Green Algae, Brown-Green Seaweed, Tangleweed, Sugar Wrack, Rockweed Kelp and other seaweeds are the great gift from the sea. Besides its rich iodine content, which is essential for a healthy thyroid, Kelp has a remarkable supply of vital nutrients, amino acids, vitamins and minerals that are key to promoting healthy overall glandular function. Kelp may even help fight obesity and be helpful in weight loss programs. History: Kelp is a common name for leafy algae or seaweed - a nutritious ''vegetable of the sea'' - and is harvested off the coasts of many of the oceans of the world. Kelp carries all the positive qualities of the sea and the numerous, rich elements that the oceans produce. Among its many uses for mankind, nutrition is one of them, and it was usually used as a source of iodine or salt. It is an important part of the diet in Japan, Norway and Scotland; and for vegans (vegetarians who eat no animal products), Kelp supplies vitamin B-12, which is normally found only in animal products). The term Kelp is used to describe a number of brownish-green species, prepared from several species of fucus and laminariae, etc. (including Macrocystis pyrifera, Laminaria digitata and Ascophyllum nodosum, etc.), and they may grow from a few feet to over one hundred feet in length, sometimes growing as much as two feet in one day. They generally grow in enormous beds just below the surface of the water and do not have any roots. Rather, they cling to rocks with ''holdfasts'' (grippers), which are hardy enough to withstand fierce storms. The entire plant is used in herbal medicine. Kelp is particularly rich in iodine and was the original source of iodine, being discovered by Courtois in 1812. It is interesting to note, however, that earlier, in 1750, an English physician, Doctor Russell, burned dried Kelp and used it as a treatment for goiter, and in 1862, a Doctor Dupare employed Kelp as an aid to obesity, two uses that dependend upon Kelp's iodine content. Iodine does not appear in nature in uncombine |

The herb is also used to improve blood circulation, which can be beneficial for a weak heart by giving a mild boost to the heart muscle. Taken both internally and externally Khella is considered very helpful in cases of vitilago. History: Khella is a bitter, aromatic plant that is native to the Mediterranean area of North Africa and the Middle East, and is cultivated in the United States, Mexico, Chile and Argentina, thriving as a crop in well-drained soil in sun. The plant grows erect to a height of about five feet and bears wispy leaves and clusters of small white flowers and tiny fruits, which are picked and dried and used in herbal medicines. Khella's medicinal usage reaches back to antiquity. The herb appeared in the Egyptian Ebers Papyrus of almost four thousand years ago as a component in formulas to treat kidney stones, one of the very same uses that has echoed through the ages. The seeds contain a fatty oil, which includes khellin, and research that was conducted in the 1950s, led to its formulation in many commercial drugs for dilating blood vessels. Some of the constituents in Khella include coumarins, visnagin, visnadin, khellin, khellos glycoside, flavonoids, sterols and volatile oil. Beneficial Uses: Khella is said to be very beneficial for good heart health. As a vasodilator, it has been used to relax the coronary arteries and increase circulation to the heart without reducing blood pressure, and it is believed to improve circulation in the heart muscle, giving a mild boost to the heart's pumping action. Khella is also said to improve a weak heart and relieve the pain of angina pectoris. Further supporting coronary health, research has indicated that the visnagin in Khella acts as a calcium channel blocker, preventing blood vessel constriction that co |

Other common names: High Mallow, Common Mallow, Mallow, Country Mallow, Cheese Flower, Blue Mallow, Tall Mallow When bothered with the pain and inflammation of asthma, laryngitis, bronchitis, sore throat or dry, hacking cough, try Malva Leaf to help rid the lungs and respiratory tract of excess fluid and mucus, while at the same time, it helps to soothe irritation and inflammation of the mucous membranes. History: Malva Leaf is an annual or perennial that is native to southern Europe and Asia and later introduced to North America. The plant may be cultivated or found wild in waste places, fields and along fences and roadsides in Europe and North America, growing to a height of four feet in well-drained to poor soil in sun or partial shade. The whitish root puts up a round stem, bearing alternate, light green, downy leaves and produces pink or purple flowers, which bloom from May to October. Malva Leaf (like other mallows) is one of the oldest medicinal plants in the world.

It continued as an important ''cure-all'' treatment throughout the Middle Ages, and like all mallows, it is principally known for its soothing qualities. There are many species of mallow that are often used inter-changeably with Malva sylvestris (high mallow), including M. Moschata (Musk mallow), M. neglecta (Dwarf or Low mallow), and M. rotundifolia (Roundleafed mallow); however, none are quite as potent as their close relative, Althaea officinalis (the Marsh Mallow). Some constituents in Malva Leaf include a high mucilage content (made up of complex carbohydrates), flavonoids, anthocyanidins, polysaccharides, volatile oil and tannin.
