I am a supporter of the earth, I aim to grow and nurture not only plants and fellow creatures, but each other. I have a devotion to all that is righteous and good, wholesome and pure and an aversion to GMO growing and the mutant destruction of our food sources, land and any inhumane treatments of Man or beast. I choose only heirloom seeds and strive to ban that which seeks to desecrate us and our natural life. I believe nature should be allowed to flourish and only lovingly restored and replenished. I encourage others to become educated and knowledgeable enough to seek sustainable ways of living, reliant on their own means. I seed save and uphold the storehouse, I utilise, and I recycled, reuse, restore, we celebrate living frugally in a world of excess, I honour our planet and respect her resources and use them with conscience care.

Trik - a - too
Organic Trikatu Powder " Three Pungents" Toxic Gut. Supports Digestion/Gastric Function.

Trikatu, made from Long Pepper (Piper longum), Black Pepper (Piper nigrum), and Ginger (Zingiber officinale), is traditionally used to support digestion and the overall gastric function.*

Trikatu translates to "three pungents" referring to the sharp taste of these herbs. It has been used in the ayurvedic tradition to stimulate "agni" or digestive "fire."

Ayurveda teaches that up to 85% of all health concerns stem from an underlying digestive imbalance. The result of poor digestion is directly linked to the production of the toxic by-products of undigested food, referred to as ama.

Ama includes undigested fats, fat-soluble environmental pollutants, heavy metals, and undigested proteins like gluten in wheat, casein in dairy, and the naturally-occurring, protective anti-nutrients in grains, nuts, seeds, and legumes.

In Ayurveda, the study of the lymph is called rasayana or the study of longevity. Understanding how to break up ama and clear the lymphatic system is the Ayurvedic key to health and longevity, and it all starts in the digestive system.

There is one herbal formula that is often added to Ayurvedic formulas because of its ability to do three things:

Break up ama
Boost bio-availability of other nutrients
Turn on the stomach’s digestive fire

The formula is classically called trikatu and is known as Warm Digest at LifeSpa. Trikatu is a Sanskrit word meaning three spices, three peppers, or three pungents:

Black Pepper – Piper nigrum
Long Pepper – Piper longum
Ginger – Zingiber officinale

Most commonly, this formula was used to support healthy stomach function and boost the natural production of hydrochloric acid (HCI), referred to as jathara agni and pachaka pitta in Ayurveda. It was also used to support the liver’s production of bile, the stimulation of bile from the gallbladder, and the healthy secretion and delivery of digestive enzymes (ranjaka pitta) from the pancreas.
Digestion formula for kapha

Supports proper digestion of fat
Promotes a healthy metabolism
Reduces excess kapha

Translating as "three pungents", Trikatu contains the herbs pippali, ginger, and black pepper. The powerful heating quality of this combination is traditionally used to enkindle the digestive fire and to effectively burn fat and natural toxins. Trikatu supports a healthy metabolism, allowing nutrients to be properly digested and assimilated, thus aiding in weight management. It is also a rejuvenative for kapha, supporting healthy lungs and uncongested breathing.*
