he art and science of Ayurveda has been around and respected for thousands of
years, and is still regarded in much of the world as the authoritative science on health, and ways in which to bring balance into our lives. The benefits and potency of the herbal products being introduced here have a long history of use and efficacy. Ayurveda is an ancient holistic healing system originating in India and covering all aspects of health — physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. The word Ayur in Sanskrit means life and Veda means science. Thus translated, Ayurveda is the science of life, or longevity, which is a vast body of invaluable knowledge. Ayurvedic medicine is a sophisticated and comprehensive health system and has some similarities with Traditional Chinese Medicine. Following Indian Independence in 1947 the Government of India began a revival of this system of medicine. A Central Council now monitors its growth, training and practice. The ayurvedic healthcare system has perfected efficient methods and herbal preparations to keep the physical, mental and emotional health of a person in its prime throughout life. The principles are contrary to the current practice of seeking treatment when disease strikes, or waiting until symptoms manifest before getting medical help. It is a mind and body Medicare system, evolved to help human beings get the maximum out of their lives in a perfectly natural and healthy way. Today, Ayurveda is at the forefront of mind-body medicines. It has spread far beyond its traditional base, and is gaining attention throughout the world. Ayurveda, with its deep understanding of life and consciousness is becoming the medicine of the future.

Supercritical Extractions Organic Amla
A

This is approximately 20 times the vitamin C content of an orange. It is a very potent form of Vitamin C and yet is easily assimilated by the human body. Amla promotes and maintains healthy digestion, which in turn regulates the absorption of food by increasing the fire ( known as "Agni" in Ayurveda ) in the stomach, without creating any excess stomach acids. *

Ingredients: Organic Amla CO 2 extract (100:1) 60 mg. Organic Amla PSE extract 600 mg., (45% total tannins) Organic Amla Raw Herb Powder 255 mg., Organic Black Pepper CO 2 extract (40% piperine) 5 mg.
Organic Ashwagandha
A
ear Friends,
shwagandha (Winter Cherry) is widely used in Ayurveda for helping the body adapt to stress by supporting the body’s own ability to cope with the moodiness and temporary fatigue associated with anxiety and tension. It is referred to as Rasayana, (sanskrit) or “Powerful Rejuvenator,” and is sometimes called Indian Ginseng. Like Ginseng, Ashwagandha is known for its ability to enhance the Ojas, and it is even sited in the Kama Sutra as an aid to maintaining a healthy libido. More recently, Ashwagandha has been used as a natural training aid. *
W
e are pleased to introduce our new line of supercritical organic formulas. These potent herbs combine the wisdom of Mother Nature with the very latest technology known as supercritical extraction. This state of the art technology delivers an extremely concentrated, broad spectrum and very pure extract. It is so pure that you can actually smell the qualities of the original herb in the extract. When you first open a bottle, you will be greeted to the original scent of the herb. It is sweet and powerful. There is simply no other extraction method so effective that you can actually smell the purity, fragrance and essence of the herb. This is a testimony to the great care that goes into the selection of the herbs and the supercritical extraction process itself. To give you an idea of the potency and concentration of the extract, we can often use as much as 200 to 250 pounds of fresh herb to produce just one pound of supercritical extract. All of the herbs are grown on organic farms and selected with the greatest care. The supercritical process produces an extremely broad representation of the herbs’ active constituents. Often times these are active ingredients that traditional methods of extraction cannot even begin to extract. In addition, the supercritical process does not use any chemical solvents at all. It uses safe and environmentally friendly carbon dioxide. This is the same carbon dioxide that is found in your sparkling water. So the end result is absolutely free of any chemical solvents. The supercritical extract is then blended with water soluble extracts, or what is referred to as post supercritical extract (PSE). Finally we combine both the supercritical extract and the post supercritical extract with the raw whole herb. The finished herbal formula is superior in terms of freshness and breadth of active constituents. It delivers the full spectrum of the herbs with potency that cannot be surpassed. In addition, all of the herbs are independently tested for heavy metals and other contaminates. The result is an exquisite formula that delivers simplicity, purity and incredible potency all at once. Our mission at Tattva’s Herbs is to help care for the planet we live on, starting with our responsibilty to offer fine, organic cruelty-free products, grown and produced without any animal testing, pesticides or chemicals for the good and health of the earth, our friends and valued customers.

Pippali, Ginger and Black Pepper.
Tri-Force Turmeric-95 We are pleased to present the world’s first and only Turmeric product that combines a full-spectrum supercritical turmeric extract with complete bio-availability and added Turmerones and Curcuminoids. Tri-Force Turmeric-95 is a breakthrough in curcumin bioavailability. Combined with a full-spectrum hydroethanolic extract, it contains at least 11% curcuminoids and 55% Turmerones. This breakthrough in Turmeric production is literally the only way to capture the full essence of the Turmeric plant, and the countless benefits it has to offer. How is it possible to improve on the 95% Turmeric extract or BCM-95 technology that is currently available? The answer in its most basic form, is that we combined the two, and added in a supercritical component, allowing for the world’s only supercritical full-spectrum turmeric extract that has the enhanced bioavailability seen in the BCM-95. The primary issue with Turmeric, simply stated, is that in general it is extremely difficult to absorb in the blood stream and does not maintain sufficient blood levels for any length of time. The usual fix is to add black pepper extract to the formula, which can assist with the absorption to a certain extent, but relative to our new Tri-Force Turmeric product, the absorption rate is inadequate. This one of a kind Turmeric formula uses the powerful CO2 extraction technology in combination with a process that allows the curcumin to be assimilated into the bloodstream up to seven times faster, and can last up to eight hours. This breakthrough in Turmeric production is literally the only way to capture the full essence of the Turmeric plant, and the countless benefits it has to offer. * Ingredients: 60 mg. of Turmeric rhizome CO2 extract, 300 mg. certified organic bio-enhanced curcuminoids standardized to 95%, 165 mg. certified organic whole herb turmeric.

What is a true Attar?
A
true Attar is a scent or perfume oil that is made by distilling the finest ingredients in water in a process that lasts several weeks. Attars can be made from spices, resins, exotic woods, and flower petals which are blended into a base of pure, fine sandalwood oil.

The fine art of Attar production is quickly vanishing, so at Tattva’s Herbs we are very honored and proud that we are able to provide you with the opportunity to experience the unparalled scent and joys that are brought about by a “True Attar.” It is our promise to you that all of our Attars are all ethically obtained, sustainably harvested, and 100% natural.

Chyawanprash (cont.) AGELESS WONDER (REPRINTED FROM THE YOGA JOURNAL.COM) For centuries the Ayurvedic herbal formula Chyawanprash has been hailed as the ultimate anti-aging tonic. Long before there were vitamins, minerals, and antioxidant supplements, there was Chyawanprash, one of Ayurveda’s most respected anti-aging foods. Chyawanprash is in the Ayurvedic category of rasayana- a super-concentrated mixture of vitamin-rich herbs and minerals designed to restore spent reserves of vital energy (ojas) and revitalize normal body function. For centuries it’s been used to maintain youth and optimal health, and its adaptogenic properties make it an excellent anti-aging and anti-stress tonic. Its rather unusual name is derived from the legend of Chyavana Rishi, a forest sage who practiced austerities. He kept his body covered with clay and grass so his eyes would shine through like jewels. One day a king by the name of Sharyati and his young daughter came into the forest on a hunt. Upon encountering Chyavana Rishi, the princess, who was perplexed by his shining eyes, poked them with blades of grass. This enraged the sage, which caused the king to appease him by having his daughter marry the rishi. Once having a taste of nuptial bliss with his young bride, Chyavana was keen to prolong his pleasure. Ashwini Kumar, the famous Ayurvedic physician, remedied their vast age difference by prescribing kayakalpa, a rejuvenative treatment, for the rishi. This treatment included a ritual bath in a nearby river and eating the herbal formula that became known as Chyawanprash. Chyawanprash has a jam like texture. It is considered a single entity even though it contains over 40 herbs and minerals, which include ghee, sesame oil, honey, raw sugar, long pepper, cinnamon, cardamom, sandalwood, turmeric, cloves, saffron, Amalaki, ashwagandha, Shatavari, bala, gudduchi, and gokshura. The dominant ingredient is Amla, also known as Amalaki or Indian gooseberry, a long-living tree that produces an intensely sour citrus fruit; it is one of the most powerful rejuvenative herbs in Ayurveda. Each amla fruit, about the size of a golf ball when ripe, contains more than 3,000 mg of vitamin C, a powerful source of antioxidants. Its touch of sweetness also plays a significant role. In Ayurveda honey and sugar are commonly added to certain herbal formulations to act as an anupan, a substance that directs the properties of the herbs deep into the tissues. In the case of Chyawanprash, its sweet flavor means it is quickly assimilated into the bloodstream, which helps to better facilitate its active ingredients into cell walls. Chyawanprash can be used by people of all ages. According to Ayurveda, it decreases vata and kapha and increases pitta doshas. It has a warming, unctuous, and heavy nature that is believed to improve longevity. Chyawanprash is also commonly called upon to support those with physical weakness from loss of body weight; respiratory ailments such as chronic cough and asthma; metabolic fatigue due to a lack of natural vitamins, proteins, and minerals; as well as some age-related conditions, including diminished resistance to disease, anemia, and loss of memory. One teaspoon of Chyawanprash jam taken twice daily is often advised.
