Natural herbal remedies, alternative medicines, herbal medicine, herbal
supplements, natural remedies, and all manner of herbal medicines are
not new - they have existed and been helpful for thousands of years. In
fact, and this may come as a shock to most; the very word "drug" now
associated exclusively with pharmaceuticals actually comes from the
German word "dragee," which is what powdered herbs made into pills were
and are still called.
We at Amalux®
choose to use the ancient knowledge to make our products. We do this not to
deliberately be behind the times but because the ancient methods are still the best way to
produce the finest quality herbal products.
To produce effective natural herbal
remedies it is essential to know,
understand, and work with the natural cycles and processes as they have
been
understood for thousands of years by the natural healers.
The various parts of plants must be harvested at the proper time and season to be potent and
effective. Roots, stems, leaves, flowers, seeds etc., must all be picked
at different times. Some in the morning, some at noon, and some at night. If you are harvesting leaves they will not be
effective if harvested when the plant is blossoming. If you want roots they must be
picked at night, and so on. The neglect in the fields cannot be
compensated for in a laboratory.
In order to implement this knowledge in making our
products, we
at AMALUX®
go to great lengths. We directly import the
raw materials to manufacture our products from a very old
herb company that still picks herbs
by hand conscious of these rules
for harvesting. The results is quality you can smell in the fragrance of
our products when you open them. This results in higher costs for us yet
we maintain a reasonable price to our customers.
Some of our natural herbal remedies are made from
oriental herbs. Our Oriental suppliers assure us of Sulfur free,
Chlorine free, Aluminum phosphate free herbs, without traceable
herbicides, fungicides, or pesticides.
Our suppliers provide a Certificate of
Analysis to ensure that when they ship us raw materials that they are
clean and free of harmful substances.
Of course every company
expounds on their quality but, you would be amazed at what is often
found inside the raw herbs and powders supplied by some of the domestic
suppliers. Steel wires, staples, plastic, nails, rocks and stones, nuts
and bolts, soil, dust, are common. Even small dead animals, although rare, are not
uncommon. The fumigants used to kill insects can still be smelled in
some suppliers raw herbs. When herbs are contaminated many companies
simply irradiate them in order that the final assays comes out clean.
NO THANK YOU!!!! We can say this because we know that these
things are not in, or done to our herbs. We pay more for our herbs to make sure
that we do not have these things in them in the first place.
Although it costs less in
the overall processing we do not purchase powdered herbs because
once a herb has been powdered its potency and shelf life is
automatically shortened. We buy whole herbs and have them ground
fresh just before encapsulation.
At the end of our processing and
encapsulating we subject our herbal products to food grade testing to
assure that the final product is free of e-coli, Salmonella, and
Staphylococcus aurcus.
These measures are taken to
assure us and you of our quality and cleanliness of manufacture.
We distinguish ourselves by our raw
material suppliers. We can assure you that very few companies are
supplied by a 400 year old herb supplier. Any company that has been in
business for that long must have made good connections for quality raw
materials. We look for a supplier
that can provide top quality not the cheapest price.
If you have purchased herbal products
in the past and purchase ours try a simple test. Smell them both. The
freshness will come across in the fragrance of our product. When it comes to herbs the smell says
it all. If you buy a herbal product that does not smell like the herbs
it is supposed to contain, or the fragrance is too weak - odds are that
it will not be very effective.
You
can buy Amalux Herbal Products with confidence because we have
gone to the trouble of sourcing the best ingredients available and
combining them synergistically.
Real
Herbal remedies, alternative medicines,
herbal medicine, herbal supplements, natural remedies, and all manner of
herbal medicines have all got the same origin. They come out of a
knowledge of Nature and what was at one time called the "light of
Nature."
We do not actively
advertise our products our quality is our advertisement. If a product
needs to be strongly advertised it must not be able to stand on its own
merit. If a product is effective it will eventually sell itself. This is
why we put our money into quality not advertising.
