{"product_id":"100-javitri-mace-जावित्री-whole-blades-pure-natural","title":"100% Javitri (Mace \/ जावित्री) — Whole Blades, Pure \u0026 Natural","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eGrindPound 100% Javitri brings you whole mace blades in their most authentic, most aromatic form — the sun-dried lacy aril of the nutmeg, hand-separated from the seed at peak ripeness and preserved whole to protect the full intensity of its essential oils, myristicin, elemicin, and eugenol. Mace is the net-like outer seed covering that envelops the nutmeg seed of the \u003cem\u003eMyristica fragrans\u003c\/em\u003e tree. The fully ripe fruit splits open on its own, revealing the mace-covered nutmeg seed — the mace, a crimson red thread-like material, is carefully removed and then sun-dried for several days before being sold as whole blades or ground to powder. Mace has a higher concentration of the same essential oils present in nutmeg and therefore has a more intense flavour — and is accordingly much more expensive than nutmeg. Known in Sanskrit as \u003cem\u003eJatishasya\u003c\/em\u003e, javitri occupies a rare and rarefied position in the Indian masala dabba — it is the spice that biryani masters, korma cooks, and Mughlai kitchens have always kept close. Its hue is blood red and it resembles a thick thread — and in the culinary world it is prized for its saffron-like colour that it imparts to every dish it touches. Warmer than cinnamon, gentler than nutmeg, and slightly sweet and peppery — it is a spice that cannot be replicated or substituted, and whose absence is immediately felt in any preparation that calls for it. Pure whole blades, free from additives, fillers, or artificial treatment — this is javitri at its most complete and most potent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eWhole sun-dried mace blades (\u003cem\u003eJatishasya\u003c\/em\u003e) — the dried seed aril of \u003cem\u003eMyristica fragrans\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eRich in essential volatile oils including myristicin, elemicin, eugenol, and safrole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eImparts a natural saffron-like golden colour to preparations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eWarmer than cinnamon, gentler than nutmeg — the most refined spice in garam masala\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eBalances Vata and Kapha doshas according to Ayurveda\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eNo additives, no fillers, no artificial treatment or colour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eNaturally gluten-free\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHealth Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e Javitri's essential volatile oils — myristicin and elemicin — provide meaningful benefits to the nervous system; traditional Indian and Chinese medicine have both used mace to treat nervous system issues, as it calms the brain while simultaneously stimulating it, making it one of very few spices known to provide both grounding and cognitive enhancement. A small amount taken with warm milk promotes deeper and more restful sleep by calming the nervous system — a classical Ayurvedic use for insomnia and anxiety relief — while in small daytime doses it supports mental clarity, sharper memory, and reduced mental fatigue. Javitri acts as a natural stress buster and is recognised in Ayurveda as a memory booster that improves concentration and the ability to attend to detail — a deeply therapeutic spice for those managing mental fatigue, stress, or disturbed sleep. Javitri controls the digestive system comprehensively — preventing constipation, flatulence, stomach bloating, and gas-related disorders — and its stomachic and carminative properties make it particularly effective after heavy, rich, or festive meals. The eugenol in javitri relieves toothache and ensures good dental health by eradicating bleeding gums, controlling bad breath, and protecting teeth from oral infections through its potent antibacterial properties. Potassium and antioxidants in javitri improve blood circulation and reduce inflammation, supporting cardiovascular health — its potassium content helps relax blood vessels and regulate blood pressure, making it particularly beneficial for those managing hypertension. Regular consumption of javitri boosts overall blood circulation, supporting both healthy skin and optimal heart function. Javitri is used in Ayurveda to balance blood sugar levels, support kidney health, and act as a cardiac tonic that improves heart metabolism and circulatory efficiency. Javitri supports liver detoxification and improves waste elimination from the body — its hepatoprotective properties make it a valued ingredient in Ayurvedic formulations for liver care. Its antibacterial and antifungal properties reduce oxidative stress, strengthen immunity over time, and promote clearer skin through internal detoxification. Useful in clearing the throat, relieving cough, asthma, throat pain, and managing irritable bowel syndrome and diarrhoea due to its water-absorbing and sputum-absorbing properties. Exceptionally rich in copper and iron — providing 174% of the daily requirement of copper per 100 g — alongside meaningful amounts of Vitamin A, B-complex vitamins, calcium, magnesium, and manganese that together support bone health, nerve function, red blood cell formation, and energy metabolism.

One whole blade per dish, or ¼ teaspoon of freshly ground powder, is typically sufficient for full flavour impact. For maximum potency, grind whole blades fresh at the point of use rather than storing ground powder. Add whole blades to slow-cooked preparations and remove before serving, or grind and add in the final minutes of cooking to preserve the delicate volatile oils. Store in an airtight container away from direct sunlight and moisture. \u003cem\u003eNote: Javitri should always be used in small culinary quantities. Consumption in large amounts should be avoided. Pregnant women should consult their physician before consuming javitri therapeutically.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePackaging\u003c\/strong\u003e Biocompostable pack\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNutritional Information (Per 100 g approx.)\u003c\/strong\u003e Energy: 475 kcal | Protein: 6.7 g | Total Fat: 32.4 g — Saturated Fat: 9.7 g | Carbohydrates: 50.5 g | Dietary Fiber: 20.2 g | Sugars: 0 g | Sodium: 80 mg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVitamins \u0026amp; Minerals\u003c\/strong\u003e Vitamin A: 800 IU (16% DV) | Vitamin C: 21 mg (23% DV) | Vitamin B1 (Thiamine): 0.31 mg (26% DV) | Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin): 0.45 mg (35% DV) | Vitamin B3 (Niacin): 1.35 mg (8% DV) | Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine): 0.16 mg (9% DV) | Folate: 76 mcg (19% DV) | Calcium: 252 mg (25% DV) | Iron: 13.9 mg (77% DV) | Magnesium: 163 mg (41% DV) | Phosphorus: 110 mg (11% DV) | Potassium: 463 mg (13% DV) | Copper: 2.5 mg (174% DV) | Zinc: 2.1 mg (19% DV) | Manganese: 3.0 mg (130% DV)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eGrindPound 100% Javitri brings the most refined, most aromatic, and most therapeutically nuanced spice in the Indian masala dabba to your kitchen in its whole, most potent form — sun-dried blades packed with myristicin, eugenol, and the ancient wisdom of \u003cem\u003eJatishasya\u003c\/em\u003e — the spice that has elevated Indian cooking and Ayurvedic healing for thousands of years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"grindpound","offers":[{"title":"100 gm","offer_id":46986818191531,"sku":null,"price":425.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true},{"title":"250 gm","offer_id":46986818224299,"sku":null,"price":1010.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/5291\/8699\/files\/100gmsMaceJavitri-1.png?v=1778737801","url":"https:\/\/grindpound.com\/products\/100-javitri-mace-%e0%a4%9c%e0%a4%be%e0%a4%b5%e0%a4%bf%e0%a4%a4%e0%a5%8d%e0%a4%b0%e0%a5%80-whole-blades-pure-natural","provider":"grindpound","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
