While clove is a notable spice in the culinary world, the benefits of adding cloves to your regular healthcare regimen should not be dismissed. The many qualities of cloves offer a systemic boost with particular enhancement to digestive health, blood circulation, and immunity.*
A small clove bud packs a mighty wallop of health promoting qualities, most notably the effect on unwanted microorganisms that have taken up residence in the body. The active component eugenol is toxic to harmful organisms and creates an inhospitable environment to discourage their proliferation. Even without the presence of foreign organisms cloves help to calm digestive complaints.*
Cloves promote blood circulation, which can reduce the tension of the blood vessels. Increased circulation enhances the oxygenation of the blood and the organ systems. Cloves also help to reduce iron in the blood when there is too much, which can cause problems for the liver and heart.*
Cloves have extraordinarily high antioxidant levels (ORAC value of 290,283 micromoles TE/100 g) that far surpass the levels in turmeric, which is known for its high antioxidant activity. Antioxidants are what the immune system uses to ward off oxidative stress and damage caused by free radicals.*
We Only Use the Highest Quality Cloves
Did you know that cloves ground outside the USA are less potent and can be adulterated with other ingredients? That's why we only use cloves that are freshly ground, batch by batch, in the USA. Compared to cloves ground abroad, cloves ground in the USA are proven to be purer and free from hidden bulking agents, a common problem among powdered herbs.
About 30% of all botanical ingredients are fraudulent, containing undisclosed plant parts or bulking agents. Like all our botanical ingredients, cloves are checked for adulteration using HPTLC, the most sophisticated method for identifying plant material and detects if it has been diluted with undisclosed ingredients. In addition, we perform heavy metal and microbiology analysis on every batch of cloves.
