Wild herbs contain many times more vitamins (for example, vitamins A, B, C, and D), minerals and trace elements (such as calcium, potassium, magnesium, and iron) than cultivated plants. Being low in calories and fat, herbs constitute an ideal part of a healthy diet. In addition to having a high nutrient density, herbs energize and alkalize the body, and can help cleanse it of impurities. One tablespoon of herb powder is equivalent to about 50g - 80g of fresh herbs. Powders last for a long time, unlike fresh plants. There is no need for any extra arrangements, you can store them in room temperature. Wild herbs are real superfood. They are full of nutrients and their taste is incomparable.
