Lycopodium Powder

Are you a business located in California and are looking for Lycopodium powder in bulk? We are the leading supplier of Lycopodium Powder in the USA. 

Lycopodium or club-moss has long been used in legerdemain and also in pyrotechnic displays for the production of artificial lightning. In legerdemain, it is used as a coating to the hand, after which that member may be dipped in water and removed from thence perfectly dry. As a medicine, it was considered wholly inert by members of the allopathic school of practice and was used only as a drying powder by nurses. In the experience of some, it was found that quite severe symptoms followed the use of this powder. Others, on the contrary, used it for months and years and positively declared it to be inert. Now, why was this? Cryptogamia, unlike other plants, has, instead of seeds, spores, which are sometimes arranged under the leaves, as in the case of Lycopodium. These spores have a hard, shell-like covering, within which we find a small quantity of oily substance, which is the active part of the spore. As long as the Lycopodium used consisted of unbroken spores it was inert; when, however, these were ruptured, it became active and symptoms followed its local application.

Lycopodium Clavatum Powder from Nepal is considered to be of the best quality. We source our Lycopodium from the Eastern region of Nepal where it is grown in the plain valleys. Every year, we collect the Lycopodium powder which is brought to our warehouse where it is packed and processed, all ready to export. Being the leading exporter of Lycopodium Powder, we know how important it is to meet the quality guidelines and the stringent shipping procedure that needs to be fulfilled as the product is a highly flammable product. Please find below the specification of our Lycopodium Powder.
