Guest guest Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 Namaste! How does on prepare arishtams(herbal wines)? I recently ordered an arishtam and it had a note on the label saying that it contained only self-generated alcohol. These seems to me a more benign way of ingesting herbs as compared to commercially available herbs that are soaked in strong alcohols(eg rum). Also how does the potency of an arishtam compare with a decoction or an infusion? Also someone mentioned to me that according to the classical texts, preparations of aristhams are to commence on a certain day in the lunar calender(I think it the full moon), is this true? Have there been studies comparing the potency of preparations made on the full- moon vs. a preparations made on a non-full moon day? -yogaman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
