INGREDIENTS
EXPLANATION:
Myristica fragrance
English
name: nutmeg and mace
Punjabi/Urdu
Name: Jaiphal and Jawitri
TEMPERAMENT:
Warm
Nutmeg and mace both come from nutmeg tree. The genus (Myristica fragrance)
comprises about 100 species found throughout the tropics, especially in the
Malayan region; but of these, Myristica
fragrans alone contains enough of an aromatic
essential oil to make it valuable for cultivation. Nutmeg is the dried seed of
the plant; mace is the dried aril surrounding the shell enclosing the seed.
Ground nutmeg which is granular orange-brown powder with characteristic
aroma is a widely-known kitchen spice. It has a warm aromatic, slightly bitter
taste and is often added to custards, certain vegetables, and milk drinks like
egg-nog. Whole nutmeg, depending on the variety, contains from 5 to 15 per cent
of a volatile oil that accounts entirely for the aroma and flavor of the spice.
Mace also a popular spice. It is a
brownish-yellow or brownish-orange granular powder with a strong aroma closely
resembling but not identical to that of nutmeg. The flavor of mace is softer
and some-what less pungent than the flavor of nutmeg. It is used
in the manufacture of pickles and tomato ketchup, in meat and fish sauces, in
chocolate dishes. Whole mace contains from 4 to 14 per cent of a volatile oil
very similar to that found in nutmegs, along with moisture, fat, starch, etc.
Mace
and nutmeg and mace are used for treatment of inflammation of the bladder
and urinary track, diarrhea, nausea, stomach spasms and pain,
and intestinal gas. They are also used for treating cancer, kidney disease,
and trouble sleeping (insomnia); increasing
menstrual flow; causing a miscarriage;
as a hallucinogen; and as a general tonic. Nutmeg and mace are applied to
the skin to kill pain,
especially pain caused by achy joints (rheumatism), mouth sores, toothache.

a potential crop.(Nigham K.B. 1989) In Pakistan it
grows wildly on fields sides and uncultivated lands and reach a height of about
5 to 6 feet. (Chopra RN, Nayar SL, Chopra IC, 1956)
It has small, alternate, oval-shaped
leaves and tiny flowers with light green calyxes and white pistils. They bloom
near the upper levels of the branch, close to the core stem. Its red berry
fruits, known appropriately in ancient Assyrian as harhumbashir, or “red
coral,” are encased by an inflated calyx that resemble small lanterns. The
fruits contain tiny seeds which are orange-yellow in color, and round and flat
in shape. (Ratsch, Christian, 1998)
Ashwagandha
is used for arthritis, anxiety, trouble sleeping (insomnia), tumors,
tuberculosis, asthma, leukoderma, bronchitis, backache, fibromyalgia,
menstrual problems, hiccups, and chronic liver disease. Some people

swelling (inflammation), and preventing the Temperaments of aging. It is also
used for fertility problems in men
and women and also to increase sexual desire. Winter Cherry helps support the
reproductive systems and adrenals and is a diuretic. Apart from boosting the
male semen count and helping with erectile dysfunctions, it also stabilizes the
fetus and later boosts a nursing mother’s supply of breast milk. It can cure

sandy areas, with good amount of moisture, on the grassy slopes of hill slides (KumarS, Singh
J, Shah NC and Ranjan V, 1997) It is extensively utilized as nutritive tonic
for strength, vigor and vitality. (Kubo M Namba and Nagamoto N Nagao, 1983)In recent times, many
novel chemical constituents have been isolated and characterized and many pronounced
biological activities such as anti cancer, antihepatotoxic and immunomodulator
activities have been reported from the plant. It is ingredient for many Unani
medicines for example majun mochras used for leucorrhoea and hab asgand that is
prescribed in lumbago, rheumatism and gout. (KumarS, Singh J, Shah NC and
Ranjan V, 1997)

Curculigo
orchoides is not only known for being part of the Vajikarana
Rasayana system of medicine, where it is used as an aphrodisiac herb
in many herbal preparations, it is also known for being part of

In
the Indian traditional system of medicine it is also used as anti-asthmatic and
anti-inflammatory (Venkatesh
P, Mukherjee PK, Kumar SN, Nema NK, Bandyopadhyay A, Fukui H, Mizuguchi H).
The traditional Ayurvedic system of medicine has used Curculigo orchoides
also as tonic, Seeth veeryam, for nervous diseases and white leprosy, and
in Chinese medicine it was used for impotence, lumbago and joint pain (Tova Navarra) From Hippocrates
some of these ancient traditional medicinal systems have inherited the
discipline and professionalism that let them pass over the years as
reliable systems of medicine.

Wheat is a good source of mineral nutrients. It has ant
bilious, antihydrotic, antipyretic, sedative and stomachic properties. It
contains significant amounts of iron, phosphorus, magnesium, manganese, copper
and zinc; iodine and cobalt are present in trace amounts. It is also a good
source of thiamin and nicotinic acid, tocopherols with high vitamin-E potency
that nourishes and prevents loss of moisture from the skin (Priyabrata
Das, Ashis Mukhopadhyay, Suvra Mandal, Bikas Chandra Pal, Raghwendra Mishra,
Debarati Mukherjee, Soma Mukhopadhyay, Jayasri Basak and Manoj Kar). The oil is used to
tone and soften the lips and has a potent antioxidant activity. This protects
the skin from scavenging free-radicals, prevents premature aging and reduces
ultra violet rays induced damage. It helps in proper drainage of secretions
from the sebaceous and other glands of the skin and thereby helps in preventing
black heads. The plant is also rich in antioxidants, and may have anticancer
properties. Supplementing with Wheat Grass, a safe and natural alternative to
mass-produced vitamins, can boost your energy levels, and improve the function
of your immune system. (N Singh, 2012)

They stimulate the skin, salivary glands, kidneys, liver and bronchial mucous
membrane. Cloves have been studied for use in the prevention of blood clotting
and coagulation, and for their chemo protective (protecting healthy tissue
against anticancer drugs), and fever-reducing Temperaments.
Cloves are a stimulant to the mind (improving memory) and to the body as a
whole, and have been used as an aphrodisiac. Eugenol is the largest and
most important component of the volatile oil. It is strongly rubefacient, anesthetic
and antiseptic and, therefore, useful as an application in pain relief for

used in Hindu holistic medicine to cells and organs. Ghee helps to minimize stomach acid
while also repairing the stomach's lining. Ghee also produces digestive enzymes
which help food digest properly and reduces episodes of indigestion.
Since the water has been evaporated from the butter, ghee
can be added to popcorn without causing it to be soggy. Also, ghee rice is a
