Description
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Ingredient list for the inventive composition:


3 cups Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globulus) leaves;


6 cups Spearmint (Mentha spicata) leaves;


4 cups Cardamon (Elettaria cardamomum) seed pods;


6 cups Peppermint (Mentha piperita) leaves;


5 cups Eleuthero (Eleutherococcus senticosus) root;


7 cups Valerian (Valeriana officinalis) whole plant;


7 cups St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum) whole plant;


5 cups whole Usnea barbeta;


4 cups Echinacea purpurea (Purple coneflower) roots, stems, and leaves;


4 cups Boneset (Eupatorium perfoliatum) leaves and stems;


2 cups Cayenne (Capsicum annuum) seed pods;


2 cups Astragalus membranaceus root;


2 cups Queen of the Meadow (Eupatorium purpureum) leaves;


3 cups Gotu Kola (Centella asiatica) whole plant;


7 cups Wild Yarn (Dioscorea villosa) root;


2 cups Yohimbe (Pausinystalia yohimbe) bark;


3 cups Horsetail (Equisetum spp.) above ground parts;


2 cups Carrot (Daucus carota) root.







Each of the eighteen ingredients needs to be in powder form or cut and sifted. If needed can order specialty ingredients from inventor that are personally grown and harvested and must be ground into powder form. Note the parts of the botanical ingredients are specified.


Divide the botanical ingredients into two five gallon sealable food grade buckets or sealable stainless steel kettles. Add ninety proof clear food grade alcohol until all ingredients are fully soaked and saturated. Stir with stainless steel utensils until no dry powder is left. If using electric mixer, make sure the volume of the ingredients is at a level so they are completely wet with alcohol. Once saturated, make sure to add alcohol until approximately one inch of it is on top. Check daily to check absorption rate to maintain one inch of alcohol above the ingredients to preserve and insure no molding.


Store, covered for forty-eight hours up to two weeks, depending on urgency.


Place the stored ingredients in baking pans and spread out to approximately one half inch thickness. Bake at 350 degrees for about forty-five minutes stopping periodically to scrape, turn, dice and stir until there is no moisture and ingredients are crunchy and completely dry. Do not let burn. Watch carefully and continually while in oven as the alcohol may combust or flame as it heats even if it appears dry. Attend the heating process full time.


Once cooled and completely dried, the ingredients are ground to the finest powder possible, sifted, and then placed in capsules.
