Here at Primal Alchemy, we always stress the importance of eating locally and in season with the immediate environment. By eating in accordance to the natural cycles of nature, we receive the nutrients needed to thrive in the seasonal conditions & demand, fine tune our energy field to harmonise with the land we walk upon and strengthen our connection to the source of our God self.
In traditional Chinese medicine there is a philosophy that encompasses all of the above but in the context of medicinal herbs. Di Tao is the traditional Chinese concept of sourcing the tonic herb from its spiritual homeland, its authentic true source & habitat. It is in this region only, where the environment is optimal, that the herb will grow to become the most phytochemically rich, potent & balanced.
The underlying belief in Di Tao philosophy is that herbs that grow in one region will differ from another region. Everything must be taken into consideration throughout the lifespan of the herb to potentiate its healing qualities, such as the water that nurtures it, the soil that feeds it, the insects & microorganisms that live symbiotically with it and also how it is cultivated and finally prepared.
We strive to Di Tao source as many ingredients used in our formulas as possible, when that is not a possibility we strictly only source wild harvested or organically cultivated alternatives to make sure you are getting the most nutrient dense & potent ingredients possible all year round.
