BODO ActiveWear's Spice Connection

What do leggings, bralettes, jackets, tops, and athleisure have to do with cinnamon and bay leaves? It may seem like an unusual question, but as we delve into history, you'll discover a fascinating connection between these everyday fashion staples and the medicinal treasures that have been cherished for generations. Iran, a land with a heritage dating back thousands of years, is steeped in rich culture and history. Its influence on the world extends beyond its captivating traditions and ancient cities. With a profound medicinal history, it has given rise to a wealth of knowledge that has transcended time and space.

 

Thousands of years before modern health trends like Suja shots, Naked Juices, and Press juices emerged as the latest fads, the 'medicines' of choice were outlined in the five-volume medical encyclopedia, 'The Canon of Medicine' (Al-Qanun fi't-Tibb), authored by Avicenna (known as Abu Ali Sina in Farsi). Avicenna was not only a pioneer in medicine but also one of the first doctors to link disease with mental health. He used this revolutionary approach to prevent and treat depression in patients, recognizing the intricate connection between a healthy body and a healthy mind.

 

Today, we journey back in time to explore the medicinal treasures that have been passed down through generations in Iran, Asia, & Europe, as we unveil the wisdom of my grandmother's "medicine cabinet."
