Herb Pharm Cilantro Extract, 1oz, 64401

Arrived promptly and product is good quality.

Update: This product is still delivering benefits for my family and I. Since writing, I tested this alcohol extraction out with a bacterial culture on an agar plate, and compared it with a cilantro essential oil (that turned out to be from cilantro seeds, whereas this is from the cilantro leaves). This alcohol extraction worked quickly and killed the bacteria wherever it made contact. The effectiveness was obvious in under an hour. The culture was kept at room temperature, and after a few days the bacteria was able to re-grow over the area that this disinfected, though the disruptions it had made left lines through the culture that reminded me of how skin heals over yet may show scars. In the meantime the other product, an essential oil, more slowly killed the culture where it touched and sat (this alcohol extraction evaporates over time; the oil just sits there). It may have been a combination of smothering the bacteria and inhibiting it, as I could see bacteria surrounding the dead area "trying" to grow up it, yet not really able to come together and tackle that oil before the plate needed to be destroyed.When the occasions have come up, this product has been used topically as an antiseptic. It is likely that both the alcohol content and the cilantro have an impact. On a cyst, this product produced improvement when isopropyl alcohol (with a much higher 91% alcohol content) had no effect. It did not completely remove the cyst, though it did get it to start draining the infection when nothing else had done that. Perhaps some day this may be an option for physicians to use for internal applications. We do not have a physician in the house so we could only use this topically; it helped even though it couldn't be injected into the infection. I'm trying to be clear that we did not use it that way, and are not recommending it. Sometimes we saturated a band-aid with it, and other times just put a few drops of it directly on the cyst. Either way, this individual did not have any skin irritation. People vary so use your usual caution with new things if you decide to try that.After using it these ways, it seems odd to consume it, yet I do! LOL! Like other cooking extracts, you can taste the alcohol part. I don't mind that. If I use it in tomato juice or dishes then I don't taste that part. The cilantro still comes through. It's surprising that we still have a good amount left when we have used this so much. It is pretty much used by the drop, though, as it is well concentrated. At this point I can estimate that in my house hold we'd probably go through around 3 bottles a year, depending on how well the cilantro season is in the garden.********* End of update.It has been a hot season, leading the cilantro to bolt early on. So, I decided to try this cilantro extract for the first time. It smells wonderfully fresh, and the taste is definitely cilantro. It should arrive with a safety seal wrapping over the screw-top to the rubber eyedropper. It is helpful to have the dropper included for a nice controlled, application.Recently, researchers found that cilantro has been able to break through biofilm made by some species of candida albicans. It has also been able to then kill off cells. This is an interesting development that makes cilantro leaf (not the coriander seed from this plant) something to keep checking up on for more developments. Perhaps it will have applications for other biofilms, as well. In the meantime, it tastes great and has other health benefits, as well. This particular product is quite satisfactory; I would purchase it again.

Meh...

Seems to be good potency. Recommend. Taste is good speedy shipping

I'm a Aut Mom and I have a daughter who is partially verbal at one point was quiet. We come a long way. She been in speech therapy for about 2-3 years now and she's made some improvements however not talking like the average kid her age. So I watched some videos on YouTube about detoxication, I saw a Aut Father who gave his son a cilantro concoction and he documented his journey. Huge improvements that I seen really prompted me to get into giving my baby that too so I decided to get a different liquid form since I knew how picky and suspicious she can be. I have it set for getting it bi-monthly. It's been 5 bottles later and I noticed we actually have more of a conversation now. I ask her question she will respond appropriately. She expresses herself alot more, she's more clever like letting her personality evolve. So one time we was at the store she wanted a certain snack but I ended up not getting it didn't have enough money that day so I hid it and bought the other items. When we got home she looked frantically in the bag and like a teenager she sucked her teeth and said "Mommmm?!" I was like😅😃. Any time before this like even a year ago she wouldn't have even noticed that I did that. She would be completely oblivious. She's less distracted, more conversational (she's about to be 9 not quite there yet but seeing progress) her teacher has been praising her saying she's making strides, talking a whole lot more. Her last speech therapy session was awesome, she did the mazes and can repeat words clearly. When she wasn3/4 she was nonverbal as she got older she had the talking level of 3yr no I can say she is at a talking level of 5yr old. She says full sentences more often than before. So we will continue to take this supplement! It tastes good and even she knows that's it's good for her because she will actually go for it to put it in her own juice. I didn't have to sneak and do it, she trusts the product! I even caught her trying to serve herself, she reminds me to give it to her. I can't wait to see what the future holds I'm thankful it's in liquid form that makes it easier to mask and ingest.Thank you!
