How To Take a Herbal Powder?
Incorporating our Pure Herbal Powders into your daily routine couldn't be easier.
Our herbal powders are made from the pure raw dried herbs which are then milled into fine powder. At Indigo Herbs we specialise in premium quality 100% pure herbal powders - none of our products contain bulking agents. Additionally we also supply a smaller range of powdered extracts and standardized herbal extracts.

What else you can do
Herbal Honey Butter:
Herbal powders can also be blended into butter and honey (such as coconut butter). This makes the herbal powder tasty and easy to digest. It can be preserved easily in the fridge and a teaspoon be taken three times per day. This is a great way to give herbs to children or those with a sensitive palate (The herbal honey/butter can be enjoyed on toast!).
Herbal Cordial:
Herbal powders are perfect for making cordial, syrup or wine. The powders dissolve easily in water and the phyto-chemicals in the herbal matter are extracted by soaking in liquid for an extended period of time.
Herbal Oil:
A botanical oil is also a great medium to soak up the beneficial properties of herbal powders. Make fortified salad dressings, or oils for skin and hair.
Food Preparation:
Herbs in their powered form makes the job of integrating beneficial herbs into our daily meals much easier. Powered herbs can be added to breads or cakes (like spices) and easily added to curries or soups. Ingesting herbs with our food is a great way to imbibe the benefits of the herbs.

More information
Our Herbal powders are 100% pure and whole, the part of the plant that has been used traditionally for its beneficial properties is dried, separated, quality inspected and then milled into fine powder.
Our Herbal Powder extracts are slightly different; here the herbal matter is concentrated and their strength is denoted by a ratio. For example 1g of Clavohuasca 4:1 extract is equivalent to 4g of clavohuasca pure powder.
Our Standardized extracts are different again, through the manufacture process the active phyto-chemical is extracted and the final herbal powder has a “standardized” amount of this specific phytochemical in it. This standardized phyto-chemical content is denoted by a percentage. So for example 1g of Horny Goat Weed standardized extract (30% Icariin) contains 300 milligrams of Icariin.
