Are you a herb detective? No, I don't mean are you a herbalist. I don't mean are you someone who can identify a plant at 50 meters and actually pronounce its name in latin. I mean, are you up to speed on finding herbs online?
Well here's a challenge. Maybe we could think of it as a game. You know, the one where someone who is "in" says "I'm thinking of a set of herbs" and then proceeds to give clues so players can either find or guess that set of herbs. What's that? You didn't use sets of herbs when you played this before. Well don't worry, now you can!
Come on, it could be fun. And we all need a bit of fun in our lives. Give it a go. Rise to my challenge. Here are the details.
I know a special health supporting product that contains a range of nutritional supplements including a set of standardized herbal extracts. The product itself is simply brilliant; truely outstanding and well worth finding. It literally is the best in the world.
In its formulation there are 13 standardized herbal extracts. The following is a list of 10 of them.
- Bilberry
- Black Cumin
- Ginger
- Gingko Biloba
- Gotu Kola
- Hawthorne Berry
- Mahonia Grape
- Myrrh
- Red Clover
- Turmeric
Your challenge is to find the product and tell me its name and provide the names of the three (3) herbs I have not listed above together with a brief (say a sentence or two) description of the main uses of those herbs.
The winner will be the first person to post the correct answer in the comments section of this article. Good luck and good detecting.
