Iranian Producer Unveils Device for Extracting Herbal Essence
"In addition to producing herbal extracts, I have built a device for manually extracting herbal essence," Soleiman Lava told ANA.
Lava made the remarks on the sidelines of the national Asreh Omid Event which was held in late May in Tehran’s Grand Mosalla with the participation of 3,000 knowledge-based companies, laboratories, research teams, and startups.
“We produce herbal extracts using manual devices,” he said, adding, “Of course, we produce wheat grains before producing herbal extracts.”
Herbs such as nettle, cheese, chamomile, alfalfa, etc. are picked and turned into extracts using a manual device, Lava pointed out.
“We get herbs from deserts and mountains and produce extracts by traditional methods.”
He went on to say that herbal extracts are consumed to improve cardiovascular and digestive functions and remove kidney stones, liver fat, etc.
Some 2,300 species of medicinal plants have been identified in the country, accounting for one-third of the medicines used in human societies.
