Hops Flowers C/S: Cert. Organic (Humulus lupulus) 1 lb: C Hops Flowers C/S: Cert. Organic (Humulus lupulus) 1 lb: C

This is Starwest's nitrogen-flushed double-wall silverfoil pack. Used as an infustion, decoction, extract, tincture, brew, smoke and poultice. The 1997 Commission E on Phytotherapy and Herbal Substances of the German Federal Institute for Drugs recommends Hops for 'Mood disturbances such as restlessness and anxiety, sleep disturbances.' 'Single dosage of drug: 0.5 g. Mode of Administration: Cut drug, powdered drug or dry extract powder for infusions or decoctions or other preparations. Liquid and solid preparations for internal use. Note: Combinations with all other sedatives can be beneficial. Actions: Calming; Sleep promoting.' The contemporary British Herbal Compendium indicates Hops use for excitability, restlessness, disorders of sleep, and lack of appetite, as does the European Scientific Cooperative on Phytotherapy and the German Standard License. Hops are high in the bitter principles humulone and lupulone. These are thought to be responsible for the appetite-stimulating properties of hops. Hops also contain about 13% volatile oils. Hops have been shown to have mild sedative properties. Many herbal preparations for insomnia combine hops with other sedative herbs, such as valerian, passion flower and scullcap. Grieve's classic 'A Modern Herbal': 'Hops have tonic, nervine, diuretic and anodyne properties. Their volatile oil produces sedative and soporific effects, and the Lupamaric acid or bitter principle is stomachic and tonic. For this reason Hops improve the appetite and promote sleep.' 'The official preparations are an infusion and a tincture. The infusion is employed as a vehicle, especially for bitters and tonics: the tincture is stomachic and is used to improve the appetite and digestion. Both preparations have been considered to be sedative, were formerly much given in nervousness and hysteria and at bedtime to induce sleep; in cases of nervousness, delirium and inflammation being considered to produce a most soothing effect, frequently procuring for the patient sleep after long periods of sleeplessness in overwrought conditions of the brain.' 'The bitter principle in the Hop proves one of the most efficacious vegetable bitters obtainable. An infusion of ½ oz. Hops to 1 pint of water will be found the proper quantity for ordinary use. It has proved of great service also in heart disease, fits, neuralgia and nervous disorders, besides being a useful tonic in indigestion, jaundice, and stomach and liver affections generally. It gives prompt ease to an irritable bladder, and is said to be an excellent drink in cases of delirium tremens. Sherry in which some Hops have been steeped makes a capital stomachic cordial.' 'A pillow of warm Hops will often relieve toothache and earache and allay nervous irritation.' 'An infusion of the leaves, strobiles and stalks, as Hop Tea, taken by the wineglassful two or three times daily in the early spring, is good for sluggish livers. Hop Tea in the leaf, as frequently sold by gr


St. John's Wort Ancient Healing Formula Tea 16 tea bags St. John's Wort Ancient Healing Formula Tea 16 tea bags

St. John's Wort Tea is formulated to bring balance to those who experience mood swings and want to find equilibrium and harmony. Each tea bag contains 850 mg of St. John's Wort, an herb once believed to have magical properties. It has been used for over 2000 years by suffers of anxiety and depression. Other powerful herbs like Fennel, Cinnamon, Fenugreek, and Lavender are combined according to Ayurvedic tradition to level moods and provide balance. St. John's Wort, Hypericum, was recommended by Hippocrates for 'nervous unrest.' It has a 2400-year history of folk use for anxiety, sleep disturbances, and worry. Modern medical research has shown that Hypericum can be as effective as prescription antidepressants for mild to moderate depression. However, unlike prescription antidepressants, Hypericum's side effects are few and mild. The official German Commission E monograph for St. John's Wort lists psychovegetative disturbances, depressive states, fear, and nervous disturbances as clinical indications for the extract or tea. The European Scientific Cooperative on Phytotherapy (ESCOP) and the British Herbal Pharmacopoeia concur. Hypericum is now the number one antidepressant, natural or synthetic, prescribed by German physicians. In addition to Hypericum's mood-elevating properties, Germany's Commission E has approved this herb for the treatment of anxiety and sleep disorders. In two clinical studies, Hypericum demonstrated anti-anxiety effects comparable to those of Valium (diazepam). Yet Hypericum is not addictive and does not impair cognitive functions. St. John's wort is official in the national pharmacopeias of Czechoslovakia, France, Poland, Romania, and Russia. Grieve's classic 'A Modern Herbal': Aromatic, astringent, resolvent, expectorant and nervine. Used in all pulmonary complaints, bladder troubles, in suppression of urine, dysentery, worms, diarrhoea, hysteria and nervous depression, haemoptysis and other haemorrhages and jaundice. For children troubled with incontinence of urine at night an infusion or tea given before retiring will be found effectual. 1 OZ. of the herb should be infused in a pint of water and 1 to 2 tablespoonsful taken as a dose. Fluid extract, ½ to 1 drachm. Kalyx Fulfillment Center ships only to the USA and Canada

Motherwort Herb Cut & Sifted Cert. Organic (Leonurus cardiaca) 1 lb: K Motherwort Herb Cut & Sifted Cert. Organic (Leonurus cardiaca) 1 lb: K

This is Frontier's nitrogen-flushed double wall silverfoil pack. Some Frontier packs are double wall wax-lined paper. Used as an infusion, decoction, extract, tincture and syrup. The 1997 Commission E on Phytotherapy and Herbal Substances of the German Federal Institute for Drugs recommends Motherwort herb for 'Nervous cardiac disorders and as adjuvant for thyroid hyperfunction.' 'Average daily dosage: 4.5 g herb; equivalent preparations. Mode of Administration: Comminuted herb for infusions and other galenical preparations for internal use.' Some recent Chinese research, supportive of the empirical tradition, indicates that Motherwort alkaloids can calm the central nervous system and stimulate the uterus to contract after delivery, thus helping to prevent infection. Grieve's classic 'A Modern Herbal': 'Diaphoretic, antispasmodic, tonic, nervine, emmenagogue. Motherwort is especially valuable in female weakness and disorders (hence the name), allaying nervous irritability and inducing quiet and passivity of the whole nervous system.' 'As a tonic, it acts without producing febrile excitement, and in fevers, attended with nervousness and delirium, it is extremely useful.' 'Old writers tell us that there is no better herb for strengthening and gladdening the heart, and that it is good against hysterical complaints, and especially for palpitations of the heart when they arise from hysteric causes, and that when made into a syrup, it will allay inward tremors, faintings, etc. There is no doubt it has proved the truth of their claims in its use as a simple tonic, not only in heart disease, neuralgia and other affections of the heart, but also in spinal disease and in recovery from fevers where other tonics are inadmissable.' 'The best way of giving it is in the form of a conserve, made from the young tops, says one writer. It may be given in decoctions, or a strong infusion, but is very unpleasant to take that way. The infusion is made from 1 oz. of herb to a pint of boiling water, taken in wineglassful doses.' 'Preparations and Dosages: Powdered herb, ½ to 1 drachm. Fluid extract, ½ to 1 drachm. Solid extract, 5 to 15 grains.' King's 1898 Dispensatory: 'Motherwort is emmenagogue, nervine, antispasmodic, and laxative. It is usually given in warm infusion in amenorrhoea from colds; and in suppressed lochia we have found it superior to any other remedy. Also useful in hysteria and chorea (King).' 'The extract is recommended in nervous complaints, pains peculiar to females, in irritable habits, delirium tremens, typhoid stages, with morbid nervous excitability, all chronic diseases attended with restlessness, wakefulness, disturbed sleep, spinal irritation, and neuralgic pains in the stomach and head, and in liver affections.' 'It is adapted to cases of nervous debility with irritation, nervous unrest, tendency to choreic or spasmodic movements, pelvic and lumbar uneasiness or pain, bearing down pains, and the irritability due to femal

American Ginseng 500 mg 100 capsules: K American Ginseng 500 mg 100 capsules: K

Throughout the world, Wisconsin-grown American Ginseng Root is highly prized and sought after for its medicinal and stress-relieving qualities. Located in the heart of ginseng country  Marathon County, Wisconsin, USA  Hsus Ginseng Enterprises, Inc. has over 1000 acres of prime ginseng farmland available for cultivation of the magical root. Many Native American tribes used American ginseng. Medicinal uses ranged from digestive disorders to sexual problems. The Chinese began to use American ginseng after it was imported during the 1700s. The traditional applications in China are significantly different from those for Panax ginseng (Asian ginseng). American ginseng is considered superior for gastrointestinal problems. American ginseng contains ginsenosides, which stimulate the immune system and fight fatigue and stress by supporting the adrenal glands and the use of oxygen by exercising muscles. The type and ratio of ginsenosides are somewhat different in American and Asian ginseng. Pharmacologically, ginseng is nonspecific in its effects and is capable of a normalizing action irrespective of the pathological situation. Ginseng's effects include improved mental performance, learning, and memory and sensory awareness. The basis of ginseng's action is believed to be due to its tendency to increase the brain's adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) activity without involving the adrenal glands. A generalized mental arousal is thereby effected. Grieve's classic 'A Modern Herbal': 'In China, both varieties are used particularly for dyspepsia, vomiting and nervous disorders. A decoction of ½ oz. of the root, boiled in tea or soup and taken every morning, is commonly held a remedy for consumption and other diseases. In Western medicine, it is considered a mild stomachic tonic and stimulant, useful in loss of appetite and in digestive affections that arise from mental and nervous exhaustion.'
