Re: Schisandra vs Ashwagandha


 Hveragerthi, where do you buy your Schizandra online? As the other poster mentioned it's difficult to find it cheap and $14/pound would be a steal. I'm paying $30/pound organic at mountain rose herbs which I'm sure is where the poster was referring to.

I actually buy my herbs from raw material suppliers and wholesalers that don't sell to the general public.  But a few of our local health food stores sell the berries in a range of $0.89 to about $1.20 an ounce retail.

Starwest has good quality herbs and they have the schisandra powder for $9.83 per pound for the wild crafted, which I really prefer over "organic".  Organic is pretty much an overpriced rip off.  You are really only paying for the name.  Organic items are still often irrigated with surface water, which is going to be contaminated.  They have higher bacterial and fungal counts.  And if they are farm raised they are not as stressed by nature, so they do not develop as high of levels of phytochemicals.  Wild crafted herbs are watered from rain and snow, which is cleaner.  And they have lower microbial counts due to their higher levels of phytochemicals.  So I ALWAYS go with wild crafted whenever possible.
