“Four P’s” Philosophy: Plants, Preparation, Purity, and Potency – Part II

2. Preparation
Even the best herbs can be ruined or damaged if they are not harvested and distilled properly. Plants must be harvested at the right time and then masterfully distilled.
Once distilled the oils must be handled carefully to protect their living energy and volatile components. For example, the distillation of frankincense is a closely guarded art that is handed down from generation to generation.
The sticky gum resin must be distilled in a specially designed steam extraction chamber using unique techniques that keep the gum resin from becoming glued to the walls of the equipment, burning or scorching, and producing inferior grade oil with little therapeutic effect.
