Organic Egyptian Sacred Lotus Leaf Herb 1 oz by Mood & Mind

The ancient Egyptians consumed Lotus soaked in wine to enjoy the flower's mood enhancing properties. Modern science has discovered that these effects result from positively mood affecting alkaloids unique to the plant. Active alkaloids in Lotus are alcohol soluable but not water soluable, so historically Lotus has been soaked in wine and then consumed for effects.* The sacred lotus has been cultivated in eastern Asia for over 3,000 years and has been used as food and medicine, as well as in religious and cultural activities. The Egyptians worshiped the flowers, fruits, and sepals of the plant, commonly found along the banks of the Nile River. In addition to being consumed all over the world as a dietary staple.
