In the Greek language, the herb is still called \"dafni.\" At the Temple of Delphi, which is dedicated to Apollo, the priestesses would eat bay leaves before divining the future. Because bay leaves are mildly narcotic, this may have helped induce the trance state. Even the roof of the temple was thatched bay leaves. This roofing not only served as a sunscreen, but protection from lightning, disease, and evil spirits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRomans considered the bay tree the best protection from thunderstorms.

Bay laurels do not withstand heavy frost but require hot, dry summers for production of concentrated essential oils.

The genus name, juglans, is derived from two Latin words; lupiter, meaning Jupiter, and glans, meaning acorn. The literal translation is therefore \"Jupiter's nuts\". According to a Chaldean clay tablet, walnut groves were known to be in the hanging gardens of Babylon. Pliny the Elder (ca.23-79 C.E.) reported cultivation in Italy from trees that had been transported from countries farther east. In ancient Persia, only royalty were supposed to eat them, and they were even referred to as the \"royal walnut\". In America, there is archeological evidence that they were consumed and used by the Native Americans as far back as 2000 B.C.E. Black walnuts are smaller, harder, and more pungent than the English walnuts sold in grocery stores. The hulls without the meaty kernels inside are used in herbal medicine. Black walnut trees exude a sap that discourages growth of competing plants over their roots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePARTS USED\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDried leaf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTYPICAL PREPARATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWashes, compresses, and baths.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"subhead-precautions\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePRECAUTIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecific:\u003c\/strong\u003e Not recommended for long term use.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeneral:\u003c\/strong\u003e We recommend that you consult with a qualified healthcare practitioner before using herbal products, particularly if you are pregnant, nursing, or on any medications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e*These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

The guarana tree produces red berries that have been used like coffee in its native Brazil for centuries. When ripe, the berries split open at the end and look similar to a human eyeball. A legend of the Satare-Maure Indians of Brazil tells that a beautiful woman named Onhiamuacabe gave birth to a child whose father was said to be a \"mysterious being.\" The child was eventually put to death for eating some type of forbidden nuts. At his burial site a guarana bush began to grow from his eye. Native Indians still consider the effects of guarana to be supernatural in nature. The seeds of the berry are dried, roasted and then brewed to make a drink that is at first bitter and slightly astringent, later becoming sweet. Older texts contain reference to a substance called guaranine, said to be chemically identical to caffeine. More recently, many chemists argue that the substance IS caffeine, making guarana the highest source of caffeine available in nature.

Hops have been used for centuries to flavor beer, at least as far back as 10,000 years ago in Asia, where it spread rapidly to Eastern Europe. The lore of hops and beer is intertwined. The Sumerians goddess Ninkasi was the goddess of brewing and beer, and head brewer to the gods. The Romans said that hops grew \"wild among the willows, like wolves among sheep\", hence the name Lupulus. The first mention of hops in European literature was in 1079 by Abbess Hildegarde of St. Ruprechtsberg who said that \"if one intends to make beer from oats, it is prepared with hops\". There is also evidence that they have been used even longer to aid sleep and to reduce libido. This should not come as any surprise as hops are a distant relative of stinging nettles and cannabis. As most of the brewing of beer was done during the middle ages by monks, there are innumerable mentions to hops and hops gardens in monastic literature. In fifteenth-century Germany, monks prescribed teas of hops to young males to help them remain chaste.

There are many folk tales about the origin of kava kava, but most rely on a central theme that involves the first plant growing on the grave of someone who had been sacrificed. Drinking the traditional kava drink is thought to symbolically turn the drinker into a sacrificial victim. Kava Kava has traditionally been used and continues to flourish as a ceremonial beverage. We recall stories of Polynesian islanders sitting around in \"Kava Rooms\" literally becoming drunk and intoxicated with so much Kava that they fell into a stupor. Due to the lack of written records in the Pacific Islands, historians have postulated that this ceremony may have originated somewhere on the Asian sub-continent, perhaps even with the Chinese tea ceremony. New research points to Melanesia as the point of origin, maybe New Guinea or the Solomon Islands. It was first encountered by Europeans in the 18th century during the voyage of Captain Cook, who first recorded the process and ceremony in detail. According to Cooks account, the root was chewed and then pounded into mulch, which was then mixed with water to produce a brownish bitter beverage that was consumed for its psychoactive properties.

The hardy evergreen shrub is mentioned by writers from Pliny to Shakespeare and beyond, as an herb of remembrance, of warding and of healing. Early physicians considered rue an excellent protection against plagues and pestilence, and used it to ward off poisons and fleas. A Modern Herbal refers to the plant's 'disagreeable odour and flavour', but in truth, the bitterness of the leaves is only evident in large doses. In smaller amounts, it imparts a pleasant, musky flavor to cream cheeses and light meats. Rue was once believed to improve the eyesight and creativity, and no less personages than Michelangelo and Leonardo Da Vinci regularly ate the small, trefoil leaves to increase their own. The legend of rue lives on in playing cards, where the symbol for the suit of clubs is said to be modeled on a leaf of rue. There are concerns that rue is poisonous and can cause violent gastric reactions when taken in large doses. In addition, some people are highly sensitive to the plant's oils and can develop a severe rash when they are exposed to it and then the sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCONSTITUENTS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCaprinic, plagonic, caprylic and oenanthylic acids - also a yellow crystalline body, called rutin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePARTS USED\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeaves and stems\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTYPICAL PREPARATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a tincture, tea and seldom in capsules.

Much of its limited range has been affected by human development.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhite sage leaves are often rolled into a large bundle and burned as an incense to purify physical spaces. This popularity has unfortunately led to the overharvesting of this plant, with the ongoing droughts in California also negatively affecting stands of white sage and slowing the recovery rate. Many prominent herbalists have suggested that enthusiasts consider growing their own. Mountain Rose Herbs is committed to the long term sustainability of this precious botanical.

It is a North Americian perennial herb, distinguished by its dark green leaves, simple erect stem bearing three leaves, cluster bright of red berries, and large pale yellow-brown colored, fleshy root with some small rootlets existing upon the lower portion. According to traditional Chinese medicine, White American Ginseng is considered a cool herb, and is used to treat hot symptoms such as stress, insomnia, palpitations, and headache, whereas Asian Panax Ginseng is hot or warming and is used to treat cold diseases. White American Ginseng is considered a less 'stimulating' member of the Ginseng family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e United States\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOther Names:\u003c\/strong\u003e Five Fingers, Man's Health, Panax Quinquefolium, Panax Quinquefolius, Red Berry, Sang, Wonder of the World Root\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart Used:\u003c\/strong\u003e Root\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCulinary Uses:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ginseng is added to candies, soda and liqueurs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMedicinal Uses:\u003c\/strong\u003e American Ginseng can be used by those who seek the same effects of Panax Ginseng, but without the highly stimulating aspects.
