Calamus - Organic, 1 lb, (Banyan Botanicals)

Free Gift For Order Over $50. Check out our gift selection.

It has been used in Ayurveda as a rejuvenative for the nervous system. Also used in Pancha Karma to dust kapha individuals after oil massage. Calamus has been regarded as an aphrodisiac in India and Egypt for at least 2,500 years. Calamus was valued as a stimulant, bitter herb for the appetite (if not for the appetites), and as an aid to the digestion. The use of Calamus in foods is prohibited in the United States by the FDA. Whether or not it can be used as an ingredient in a dietary supplement is not clear.
  • Supports proper function of the lymphatic system*  
  • Invigorates the skin*  
  • Promotes the removal of natural toxins*
In the 70's and '80s, studies demonstrating carcinogenic activity in animals were conducted with rodents fed or injected massive doses of beta - asarone. The Indian variety of Calamus contains beta-asarone and was subsequently banned from use in foods in the United States. Pending clarification on this issue, Banyan's bulk Calamus powder is not for human consumption.

PRODUCT REVIEW 
Ashwagandha is the Sanskrit name for Winter Cherry. It can be translated as "scent of a horse" for its characteristic odor. The name also alludes to its reputation in Ayurveda for bestowing the vitality and strength of a horse. Our Ashwagandha is certified organically grown in accordance with Oregon Tilth standards and the California Organic Foods Act of 1990.
