Herbs, Spices and Condiments

Spices are barks, roots, berries, seeds, dried fruits of tropical or temperate plants rich in essential oils or aromatic principles used predominantly & traditionally to flavour food and beverage. Latent potential of their inherent nutritional, anti-oxidant, anti-microbial and medicinal properties (anti-diabetic, anti-hyper cholesterolemia, anti-carcinogenic, anti-inflammatory) has led to renewed focus on this group of food items.

Current non-traditional use of spice as nutraceutical ingredients is estimated to be nearly 15% of total production in India. Nutraceutical and Life Science companies have begun tapping their healing, nutritive and health qualities by fortifying food and as an organic medicine. USA, Canada, Germany, Japan, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Israel and Mexico are the main importers of Indian spices. Most countries have stringent food laws and regulations to ensure imported spices are safe and wholesome for their consumers.
