All of our products contain FDA Approved herbs that are not only chosen for their specific efficacious value in elevating the problem at hand whether it be acne, dry skin or hairloss, but also included with them are their family of herbs.

In layman terms what does this mean?

A single herb that is known to help correct a certain problem can be classified as a 'good herb' for that condition, in that when administered it generally produces good results. Now surround that 'good herb' with it's family of herbs and dramatic results occur. A 'good herb' now produces excellent results, and furthermore it becomes a safer herb to use over a extended time, for many reasons. For example a herb that is infused with it's family can carry out it's task far more effectively, so less of the herb needs to be used as it has become more potentized, it's family acting as adjuvents. A complementary process takes place, it draws upon it's family for support. In fact a perfect balance takes place.

Some herbs are antagonist to one another's therapeutic actions. An example of this is Garlic which is a Vasodilator (opens blood vessels) and Lemon Juice which is a Vasoconstrictor. Mix the two together without their family and chaos may reign, while the body sorts the incoming chemical messages out.

Any specific herb that is recommended for a problem such as hairloss we call target herbs. Those that compliment it and enable it to accomplish it's job far more effectively we call adjuvants and or it's family. So in the production of Absalom we have carefully chosen herbs that are known to enhance hair growth accompanied by their family and adjuvants.

Furthermore our natural patented extraction method enables us to extract (without heat, alcohol or force) the full potency of every herb, together with their live enzyme, content vitamins and minerals, which is readily acceptable by the body, even with external application.

The Chinese have over three thousand years of cumulative clinical experience of Herbal Medicine, thus this very extensive record of hands on clinical experience is the most reliable source of Herbs and their therapeutic value that we have, especially in long term usage.

The Chinese use the whole plant or plants parts for a very good reason. It is known that concentrated isolate or refined fractions of some medicinal plants can be toxic, how then have the Chinese been able to use these same plants for Millenniums with safety?

As already indicated in Chinese Medicine the whole Herb is used, because they contain elements that appear to neutralise the effects of any toxic substances. Furthermore formulaes that may contain Herbs possessing toxic substances are always combined with Herbs that counteract the effect of those toxins, those allowing the therapeutic effect of the Herb to be delivered without ill effects.

Herbal Care's formulaes are all very extensive for this reason.

All Formulations are produced by Dr Myron Biernat D.C., D.O., Chd., Dip. Acup. & Master Herbalist, with over 25 years experience, not only in Western Herbs, but also in Chinese, Indian & Tibetan Herbs coupled with his expert knowledge of the Health Field.

A sample profile of Primary Herbs:

Aloe Vera
In Arabic the word Alloeh means bitter or shiny, from which we get the word Aloe. Aloe has been used for thousands of years, both medically and cosmetically we find references to it's use in ancient Chinese, Greek, Egyptian and Roman history.

It is well known for it's antibiotic properties and contain a high level of Selenium and Silicon. It's Silicon content helps explain it's success in promoting strong healthy hair. It's demulcent antifungal and astringent properties also promote healthy skin and a healthy scalp is essential for healthy hair growth.

He Shou Wu (Chinese Cornbind)
The name He Shou Wu derives from the fact an ancient Chinese King who's name was He, who's white hair (head) = Shou became black = Wu after using Chinese Cornbind. This particular Herb nourishes the blood and as well as promoting hair growth has the ability to help restore natural hair colour.

It is interesting to note that it's Selenium content is very high. It contains no known toxins.

Nettle (Urtica Diocia)
This plant is extremely high in Minerals Calcium, Zinc, Magnesium Phosphate, Potassium and the Vitamins Riboflavin, Thicemine, Vitamin B & C. It has been used for centuries to stimulate hair growth, especially the root.

Bladderwrack (Fucas Vesiculosis)
Great Pacific Kelp.
Kelp is a wonderful natural source of Iodine. A deficiency in Iodine will cause dryness, thinness and poor growth of hair in both animals and man.

Kelp used in it's natural raw state resists the release of it's Trace Minerals. Herbal Care's unique patented method of extraction gently encourages the plant to give up it's Trace Minerals together with Living Enzymes.

Manuka (Leptospermum Scoparium)
Native to New Zealand, relatively well known in the Western World since early European Settlers used the leaves for a health giving tea. Maori people have long used Manuka extracts as either poultices or as internal help. Extracts from the Manuka have many times more antibacterial and antifungal properties than Australian Tea Tree, and like Kanuka it has been included to promote a healthy scalp.

Kanuka (Leptospermum Ericoides)
Kanuka also has similar properties to Manuka, but generally in a more concentrated form. Kanuka is particularly helpful for skin diseases, hence it's inclusion in Absalom's formula for the promotion of a healthy scalp.

Please Note
Both Kanuka and Manuka extracts as used by Herbal Care are obtained from our own natural bush area, which grow organically without pesticides or artificial fertilisers of any kind. The time between harvesting and processing with our unique cold (patented) method in only a matter of minutes, ensuring both freshness and the efficacious properties are preserved.
