{"product_id":"gallio-i-kollitsida","title":"Cleavers – Bedstraw (Galium spp.)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGalium – Cleavers\u003c\/strong\u003e (\u003cem\u003eGalium spp.\u003c\/em\u003e) is a dried botanical raw material with a mild, dry, grassy profile. The product consists of dried aerial parts and is intended for those seeking clearly identifiable herbs and specialty raw materials. As this is a natural product, the color, size of the pieces, aroma intensity, and proportion of smaller pieces may vary from batch to batch; this alone does not indicate a problem.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBotanical identity and character\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe botanical reference \u003cem\u003eGalium spp.\u003c\/em\u003e helps distinguish the product from plants with similar common names. Correct identification is especially important for dried herbs, since different species may look similar after drying. The label name, plant part used, and batch details are more reliable than identification based on photographs alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAroma, form, and practical use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe genus Galium includes many species, and the common name may be used differently in different regions. The exact identity of the batch should be confirmed before making any decisions about use. We do not apply a single dosage to all herbs, nor do we transfer instructions for standardized extracts, capsules, or essential oils to loose dried raw materials. For blends made repeatedly, it is preferable to weigh the ingredients so that the proportions remain consistent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eNatural variations\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrying reduces moisture and makes many plant parts more brittle. It is therefore normal to find a small amount of crumbled material at the bottom of the package. The color may also become darker or duller compared to the fresh plant. Always use a clean, dry utensil and close the package immediately after use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRelated products\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a different but related botanical raw material, see \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/asperoyla-apoxirameni\"\u003eDried Sweet Woodruff\u003c\/a\u003e. The two products are not interchangeable: each plant has its own botanical identity, plant part used, aromatic profile, and specific precautions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Spices Bazaar tip\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the original label with the herb until it is finished. If you transfer it to a jar, note at least the full name and batch number. This simple practice helps avoid mix-ups when there are several roots, leaves, or chopped herbs that look alike in the same cupboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eStorage and precautions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStore in a cool, dry, dark place, tightly sealed and away from moisture, steam, and strong odors. No diuretic, lymphatic, or other therapeutic properties are attributed to the loose product. For regular use, during pregnancy, or while taking medication, seek appropriate advice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiscover more flavors, aromas, and stories from around the world.\u003c\/strong\u003e Follow Spices Bazaar on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/www.SpicesBazaar.gr\"\u003eFacebook\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@Aiodigoseyexias\"\u003eYouTube\u003c\/a\u003e for new arrivals, suggestions, and inspiration.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Spices Bazaar","offers":[{"title":"50 g","offer_id":54895919857991,"sku":"SB-HER-38516-050","price":3.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 g","offer_id":54895919890759,"sku":"SB-HER-38516-100","price":4.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"500 g","offer_id":54895919923527,"sku":"SB-HER-38516-500","price":20.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"1000 g","offer_id":54895919956295,"sku":"SB-HER-38516-1K","price":40.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/spices-bazaar-2.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/gallio-i-kollitsida","provider":"Spices Bazaar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
