Aritha powder, also known as soapnut powder, comes from the fruit of the Soapnut Tree. This dry berry powder is native to India and Nepal and grows on the Sapindus Mukorossi tree. Its shell naturally contains soap or "saponins" which when added to water reacts like soap. Unlike commercial soaps, that have artificial foaming agents, soap nuts do not produce lots of bubbles or foam. It is a popular ingredient in Ayurvedic shampoos and cleansers. The herb originates from the forrest areas of India in order to control that the crops are not chemically grown or infected with pesticides. Please note, once open, the bag can not be re-used. Store the powder in a glass container for longer preservation. Visit www.metiista.net for beauty recipes with Aritha powder and for many helpful tips on natural health and beauty.
