Where
do your herbs come from?
All herbal products are directly imported from India.
Are your herbs irradiated when they come into the
U.S.?
No. Contrary to popular belief, all herbs from India are
NOT irradiated, including ours. Because of our high
quality packing techniques and cleaning procedures,
there is no need for the authorities to irradiate our
herbs.
Are your herbs organic?
Most are organically grown. Since India does not have
such an organic certification system, they can not
certify them as organic however most of our herbs are
wild crafted and are not sprayed with any pesticides or
insecticides.
What quality control do you perform to insure your
herbs are safe?
Before each batch of herbs or herbal products is shipped
from India, the product must go through a rigorous
safety test before it is exported to the U.S. Among the
tests performed are: heavy metal count, bacteria count,
e-coli test, salmonella test, mildew and mold count,
insect residue test, moisture levels, and others.
Some herbs have different but similar spellings. Why?
Depending on the region of India you are from, there are
sometimes slight differences and variations in spellings
of some herbs. Also, sometimes for convenience sake and
ease of pronunciation, the difficult letters are
replaced with
ones that are easier to pronounce. That is why, as a
second method of verifying, we will sometimes ask the
Latin or botanical name of the herb to make sure you are
indeed ordering the correct product.
Your formulas are in EXTRACTS. Why?
Extracts are essentially the core active ingredients of
any herb. It is the part of the herb or plant that is
doing all the work. Extracts simply harness that
ingredient and capsulate it and the end result is a
higher potency capsule while not having to take so many
capsules. You are guaranteed to see results in weeks,
not months (the way you would if taking a raw powdered
herb).
The color of my herb changed slightly from my last
order. Why?
This is normal. Depending on the time of year, the
farmers that we collected from, the potency of the crop,
the grinding technique used, and the cleaning process
used….these would all affect the slight change in
color or even flavor of the herb. This is completely
normal and is expected when dealing with raw, natural
plants and herbs. |
