Ginger-Allspice Protection--an Evolution


I have come to believe that the creation of the greatest, most effective remedies begin from a spark of divine insight. We all have the ability to connect and when it happens it is followed by a deep sense of gratitude. Once a remedy is brought into being, it will often evolve beyond any expectations. Take for example
Ginger-Allspice Protection
This remedy was originally formulated for health care professionals and people who deal with a heavy load of psychic bombardment. This is a true “Energy Essence” and uses the extracted flower essence of Beach Vitex combined with Iris. This combination works with subtle energies and emotions of the body as described by Dr Richard Bach, and helps filter psychic negativity while establishing positive boundaries.
It’s a known fact that not everyone is sensitive to these subtle energies however aroma is familiar to everyone. The physical constituents of Protection remedy are Wild Ginger and Allspice and have proven to be extremely calming and grounding--yet touch many people on a very deep and primal level of the limbic system. Interestingly, I was talking to a friend about the stress she experience's as a single parent of an autistic child. I told her about Protection Remedy and as I was explaining the qualities of Ginger-Allspice to her, I was amazed to hear that they have been using allspice for years to calm autistic kids and instill a peaceful environment through olfactory senses. Apparently the school boils the dried berries of allspice all day. WOW! I gave her a bottle of Ginger-Allspice Protection to try for herself and her child. The results have been very positive (that is--when she remembers to use the remedy).
I believe there are no coincidences and we are constantly on the edge of discovery. Its very exciting and rewarding when you can feel the path unfolding below your feet but more research is needed. I want to get this product out to people who can benefit from it and quantify the results. If you or someone you know is dealing with autism; you work in the health care profession; or are experiencing severe stress and just want to try it for yourself then I invite you to go to our website www.kauaiherbals/ginger.allspice and use this coupon during checkout for $5.00 off the listed price. code: gap5 Your input is very important however participation is strictly optional and we won’t bug you.

IS IT, OR IS IT NOT A "REPELLENT"


Does it effectivly repel mosquitoes, ticks and fleas--YEP! Is it registered with the FDA or the EPA--NOPE!

How can it be that one little word “Repellent” can send shivers of fear and frustration down the spines of natural product producers such as Kauai Herbals? For the past 2 years we have been developing an all natural highly effective “repellent” for mosquitoes, fleas and ticks.
Driven by the desire to truly help people by giving them an alternative to DEET products, we have received nothing but frustration and grief when trying to register this product with the FDA and EPA. It is totally insane! For one thing it’s upwards of $150,000 and the bureaucratic red tape is so confusing and convoluted it most certainly is devised to scare us little guys away. How can these government agencies who claim to be in the business of protecting American consumers make it so difficult for small business to compete regardless of a products effectiveness? It’s no big surprise that these government agencies cater to big business but as natural product producers and a small business, we refuse to be bullied. The fact is—our not really a “repellent” Herbal Defense, is not only highly effective against mosquitoes, fleas and ticks, it also utilizes Lemon Eucalyptus which is regarded by the CDC (another government agency!) as the most effective bio-pesticide for repelling mosquitoes. Honestly we have given up trying to register this product and instead have become creative with the labeling. No where on the label do we refer to Herbal Defense as a “Repellent” (even though it certainly is!) It is referred to as an “outdoor spray”. A little confusing for the consumer? ---YES! But we refuse to pull this effective alternative to DEET of the shelves. It is a “repellent” regardless of what the label says and it works, therefore the public deserves to have a choice.

Newest Member of the Natural Ingredient Rescource Center


Aloha from Paradise!

We are ecstatic to announce that Kauai Herbals and Energy Essences of Kauai have joined the NIRC. The Natural Ingredient Resource Center was founded to help consumers, manufacturers and retailers, focusing on natural personal care products for the home and family, to learn more about the natural ingredients in the products they buy, make or sell. To encourage and provide an opportunity for manufacturers of these products to voluntarily show that they support "truth in labeling" and to provide a resource for education about natural ingredients. Because natural matters! What an Honor to be part of this organization.
