The rich volcanic soil and high rainfall makes rural Oregon an ideal location for growing herbs. Our crops include echinacea, black cohosh, elecampane, calendula, lemon balm, chamo- mile, feverfew, angelica, kale, and beets. WILDCRAFTING The highest quality plants are often found growing in their natural, or “wild” habitat. Eclectic sustainably wildcrafts with proper respect for the plants to ensure that future generations may continue to grow. Wildcrafted plants include St. John’s wort, stinging nettles, uva ursi, and elderberries. LLOYD’S COLD STILL Eclectic uses unique cold distillation processes to create our alcohol-free extracts. Our glycerite line is the same strength as our standard extract line and uses no heat. Our Lloyd still was developed by the reknowned pharmacist John Uri Lloyd - and is the same as the Lloyd still that can be found on display at the Smithsonian museum. MANUFACTURING Our manufacturing plant is located inside a custom-fit airplant hangar in a rural location surrounded by nature. We do our own freeze-drying, encapsulation, bottling, and packaging of our supplements. We also do a number of private label products. 2 BEGINNINGS Our founder was a pharmacist who grew interested in naturopathic medi- cine after seeing patients returning for repeat prescriptions and wondering when they were going to get well. After graduating from the national col- lege of naturopathic medicine, Ed Alstat started the company within the school’s clinic dispensary. With this auspicious beginning, the company’s primary focus has always been on people’s health and wellness. FAMILY OWNED Eclectic Institute is still owned by the founder and his family and has its founding values intact. Many of our products were created with his own children in mind and have supported lots of families throughout the years. To meet the high standards of our founder, all of our products must be effective, ethical, and easy to use. ETHICAL AND SUSTAINABLE We grow herbs on our organic farm using biodynamic farming techniques. We also source from other local farms to ensure freshness and quality. We always prefer American grown and are particular about the country of origin of our raw materials. TRADITION AND INNOVATION By combining ancient herbal lore with modern technology, our supple- ments have the best of both worlds. Eclectic uses naturopathic widsom and innovative processes to create exceptional products. Our herbs are harvested at peak potency, and then freeze-dried in-house. We give you the closest thing to an herb picked fresh from your garden in the convenience of a capsule or powder. No shortcuts, no gimmicks, and no substitution for quality. HEALTH AS A VALUE With a naturopathic physician as founder and owner, Eclectic Institute’s goal has always been to “Get people well.” Never compromising or taking shortcuts, we grow, freeze-dry, and package products ourselves to ensure that every step of the process meets our high standards. POWDERS DELICIOUS FREEZE-DRIED HERB, FRUIT, & VEGETABLE POWDERS POWders (Plant Originated Wellness) are made with whole herbs, vegetables, and fruit. They are created using the best available organic or wildcrafted ingredients, some of which we grow ourselves on our organic farm in Sandy, Oregon. With over 25 years experience, Eclectic Institute is the pioneer in freeze-drying technology for the herb industry. Freeze-drying is the best method for preserving the complex chemistry, active enzymes, and entire matrix of the plant in its fresh form. 100% NATURAL AND FRESH NO CHEMICALS OR HARSH PROCESSING MADE WITH ORGANIC & WILDCRAFTED INGREDIENTS NO ADDED SUGAR OR FILLERS RECONSTITUTES IN WATER/JUICE ADD TO SMOOTHIES/FOOD EXCELLENT SOURCE OF ANTIOXIDANTS BLOOD SUGAR SUPPORT Carbohydrate Metabolism* Raw, organic, freeze-dried Bitter Melon, Green Beans and Aronia berries.

(68g) 5 FREEZE-DRIED SINGLE HERBS We all know the benefits of fresh fruit and vegetables over dried, and the same applies to our herbs. Traditional cultures consumed fresh herbs whenever possible, and also used simple preservation methods such as air drying and preserving in alcohol. Our plant-loving naturpathic physician founder pioneered the freeze-drying of our botanical supplements. The modern technology of freeze-drying enables us to preserve herbs in as close to a fresh state as possible. Freeze-drying removes only the water, leaving all the nutrients in the same balance as found in nature. The color, enzymes, aroma, taste and bioactive markers are retained, unlike traditional methods of drying herbs (shade, air, or heat drying) which degrade the active components found in fresh plants.

  • Simulating the Productivity of Desert Woody Shrubs in Southwestern Texas
    DOI: 10.5772/intechopen.73703 ProvisionalChapter chapter 2 Simulating the Productivity of Desert Woody Shrubs in Southwestern Texas SuminSumin Kim, Kim, JaehakJaehak Jeong Jeong and James R. KiniryR. Kiniry Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.73703 Abstract In the southwestern U.S., many rangelands have converted from native grasslands to woody shrublands dominated by creosotebush (Larrea tridentate) and honey mesquite (Prosopis glandulosa), threatening ecosystem health. Both creosotebush and mesquite have well-developed long root systems that allow them to outcompete neighboring plants. Thus, control of these two invasive shrubs is essential for revegetation in arid rangelands. Simulation models are valuable tools for describing invasive shrub growth and interaction between shrubs and other perennial grasses and for evaluating quantitative changes in ecosystem properties linked to shrub invasion and shrub control. In this study, a hybrid and multiscale modeling approach with two process-based models, ALMANAC and APEX was developed. Through ALMANAC application, plant parameters and growth cycles of creosotebush and mesquite were characterized based on field data. The devel- oped shrub growth curves and parameters were subsequently used in APEX to explore productivity and range condition at a larger field scale. APEX was used to quantitatively evaluate the effect of shrub reductions on vegetation and water and soil qualities in vari- ous topological conditions. The results of this study showed that this multi modeling approach is capable of accurately predicting the impacts of shrubs on soil water resources. Keywords: arid rangeland, creosotebush, mesquite, ALMANAC, APEX 1. Introduction Rangelands cover 31% of the total land base of the U.S.

  • CDFG Natural Communities List
    Department of Fish and Game Biogeographic Data Branch The Vegetation Classification and Mapping Program List of California Terrestrial Natural Communities Recognized by The California Natural Diversity Database September 2003 Edition Introduction: This document supersedes all other lists of terrestrial natural communities developed by the Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB). It is based on the classification put forth in “A Manual of California Vegetation” (Sawyer and Keeler-Wolf 1995 and upcoming new edition). However, it is structured to be compatible with previous CNDDB lists (e.g., Holland 1986). For those familiar with the Holland numerical coding system you will see a general similarity in the upper levels of the hierarchy. You will also see a greater detail at the lower levels of the hierarchy. The numbering system has been modified to incorporate this richer detail. Decimal points have been added to separate major groupings and two additional digits have been added to encompass the finest hierarchal detail. One of the objectives of the Manual of California Vegetation (MCV) was to apply a uniform hierarchical structure to the State’s vegetation types. Quantifiable classification rules were established to define the major floristic groups, called alliances and associations in the National Vegetation Classification (Grossman et al. 1998). In this document, the alliance level is denoted in the center triplet of the coding system and the associations in the right hand pair of numbers to the left of the final decimal. The numbers of the alliance in the center triplet attempt to denote relationships in floristic similarity. For example, the Chamise-Eastwood Manzanita alliance (37.106.00) is more closely related to the Chamise- Cupleaf Ceanothus alliance (37.105.00) than it is to the Chaparral Whitethorn alliance (37.205.00).

  • Biogenic Volatile Organic Compound Emissions from Desert Vegetation of the Southwestern US
    ARTICLE IN PRESS Atmospheric Environment 40 (2006) 1645–1660 www.elsevier.com/locate/atmosenv Biogenic volatile organic compound emissions from desert vegetation of the southwestern US Chris Gerona,Ã, Alex Guentherb, Jim Greenbergb, Thomas Karlb, Rei Rasmussenc aUnited States Environmental Protection Agency, National Risk Management Research Laboratory, Research Triangle Park, NC 27711, USA bNational Center for Atmospheric Research, Boulder, CO 80303, USA cOregon Graduate Institute, Portland, OR 97291, USA Received 27 July 2005; received in revised form 25 October 2005; accepted 25 October 2005 Abstract Thirteen common plant species in the Mojave and Sonoran Desert regions of the western US were tested for emissions of biogenic non-methane volatile organic compounds (BVOCs). Only two of the species examined emitted isoprene at rates of 10 mgCgÀ1 hÀ1or greater. These species accounted for o10% of the estimated vegetative biomass in these arid regions of low biomass density, indicating that these ecosystems are not likely a strong source of isoprene. However, isoprene emissions from these species continued to increase at much higher leaf temperatures than is observed from species in other ecosystems. Five species, including members of the Ambrosia genus, emitted monoterpenes at rates exceeding 2 mgCgÀ1 hÀ1. Emissions of oxygenated compounds, such as methanol, ethanol, acetone/propanal, and hexanol, from cut branches of several species exceeded 10 mgCgÀ1 hÀ1, warranting further investigation in these ecosystems. Model extrapolation of isoprene emission measurements verifies recently published observations that desert vegetation is a small source of isoprene relative to forests. Annual and daily total model isoprene emission estimates from an eastern US mixed forest landscape were 10–30 times greater than isoprene emissions estimated from the Mojave site.

  • Potential of Medicinal Plants As Antimicrobial and Antioxidant Agents in Food Industry: a Hypothesis
    Potential of Medicinal Plants as Antimicrobial and Antioxidant Agents in Food Industry: in Food Science A Hypothesis R: Concise Reviews Luis Alberto Ortega-Ramirez, Isela Rodriguez-Garcia, Juan Manuel Leyva, Manuel Reynaldo Cruz-Valenzuela, Brenda Adriana Silva-Espinoza, Gustavo A. Gonzalez-Aguilar, Md Wasim Siddiqui, and Jesus Fernando Ayala-Zavala Abstract: Many food preservation strategies can be used for the control of microbial spoilage and oxidation; however, these quality problems are not yet controlled adequately. Although synthetic antimicrobial and antioxidant agents are approved in many countries, the use of natural safe and effective preservatives is a demand of food consumers and producers. This paper proposes medicinal plants, traditionally used to treat health disorders and prevent diseases, as a source of bioactive compounds having food additive properties. Medicinal plants are rich in terpenes and phenolic compounds that present antimicrobial and antioxidant properties; in addition, the literature revealed that these bioactive compounds extracted from other plants have been effective in food systems. In this context, the present hypothesis paper states that bioactive molecules extracted from medicinal plants can be used as antimicrobial and antioxidant additives in the food industry. Keywords: food safety, natural products, phenolic compounds, terpenes Introduction been used for thousands of years to treat health disorders and The search of new safe substances for food preservation is be- prevent diseases. ing performed

  • Using Native Plants of the Northeast of Mexico for Developing Active Antimicrobial Food Packaging Films Cecilia Rojas De Gante, Judith A
    Chapter Using Native Plants of the Northeast of Mexico for Developing Active Antimicrobial Food Packaging Films Cecilia Rojas de Gante, Judith A. Rocha and Carlos P. Sáenz Collins Abstract The development of active food packaging is addressed using polyolefins such as LDPE and PVOH, as well as biopolymers from flour (sorghum and corn) and by- products of the food industry. Bacteriocins (nisin, natamycin), plant extracts such as oregano and thyme, as well as native plants of the northeast region of Mexico (Larrea tridentata, Schinus molle, Cordia boissieri, Leucophyllum frutescens), and essential oils of oregano and thyme as antimicrobial agents have been studied. The effect exerted by the process of incorporation of the antimicrobial agent (casting, extrusion) on the barrier and mechanical properties of the package as well as the antimicrobial activity of the containers (broad spectrum or selective activity) has been observed and the establishment of methods for their traceability. Keywords: sorghum, maize, flour, nisin, thyme, oregano, Larrea tridentata, Schinus molle, Cordia boissieri, Leucophyllum frutescens, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus 1. Introduction Since the last decade and a half (2000 to date), the main forces that have unleashed the greatest developments in the packaging of food are the great con- cern of society for the care of their integral health including its nutritional status through foods with less or no presence of additives but in convenient presentations that facilitate their preparation, heating, and intake as well as foods with therapeu- tic action. A consumer who is very concerned about the safety of food, where food packaging and storage systems do not represent or have physical, biological, or even toxicological risks, nor for the protection of the environment.
