This product may have the following benefits

Cranberries and fresh cranberry juice have been used for many years in Europe for the maintenance of a healthy urinary system.  Unfortunately, most cranberry juice is pasteurised to prevent it from spoilage.  Nutritionists prefer fresh, unpasteurised extracts.  The best way of preventing  spoilage of unpasteurised cranberries is by vacuum packing.  Freeze-dried, powdered cranberries are an ideal and convenient alternative to fresh cranberry juice.

Herbs
For thousands of years, herbs have been used to help maintain many aspects of health and wellness. Today, research and technology are bringing herbalism into the modern age – with improved extraction, standardization, and farming methods. Clinical studies are beginning to validate herbal therapies, so even some in the medical community are starting to accept them.

Many of today’s medicines were originally derived from botanicals. Aspirin once came from the white willow tree, quinine from the bark of the cinchona tree, and digitalis from foxglove. Herbs are still the basis for Chinese medicine and are important constituents of many European natural remedies. As Hippocrates said, “Let they food by thy medicine, thy medicine be thy food”.

Some of the herbs available on this site are wild-crafted – grown in the wild – while others are meticulously cultivated on herb farms.
