Also known as woad, dyer’s woad, Jerusalem Asp, pastel (French), Waid (German), wede (Dutch).


Woad is a biennial herb in the Brassicaceae family that can grow up to 1.60 m tall. Long before the arrival of Asian indigo, it was Europe’s most important source of blue dye, cultivated widely from England and France to Germany and Central Europe. This powdered extract is made from fresh woad leaves through alkaline hydrolysis, a process similar to indigo powder production, which stabilises the pigment and makes it easy to use.

The extract provides a convenient, reliable, and concentrated form of woad colour, suitable for both beginners and experienced dyers. It can be used alone for the characteristic smoky blues of woad, or blended with indigo to achieve a wider spectrum of blue and green tones.

Historical Note
Woad has been central to European textile history for centuries. From Celtic body paints to medieval tapestries, it coloured cloth long before indigofera reached Europe via trade. The “woad trade” supported entire economies, especially in southern France, where pastel production in Toulouse became an industry of wealth and influence in the 15th–16th centuries. Even after indigo imports largely replaced it in the 17th century, woad retained importance in local traditions and remains beloved by natural dyers today for its heritage and softer tonal range.

Active Dye Components

  • Indican (precursors isatan A and B)
  • Indigotin (blue)
  • Indirubin (red-violet, contributing to woad’s softer, smoky tone compared to indigofera)

CI Colour Name
CI Natural Blue 1

Shading Tips

  • Woad alone → smoky blues, often softer and greyer than indigofera.
  • Mixed with indigo → broader spectrum of blues and greens.
  • With weld → clear, bright greens.
  • With madder → purples and violets.
  • Multiple dips build depth and permanence of colour.

Natural cleansing for lymphatic system and better digestion.
I bought tbis to help to cleanse my lymph system and to 8mprove digestion of proteins. The digrstion help was almost immediaye! Within a wee i could tell a fiffetdnce in less ibdigestion, less stomach and colon pain. A Betyer overall health and " lighter" gut feeling. I know this pineapple extract take a while to work in concert with other supplements to clear out old hard protiens and seed oil residue from the delicate lymph nodes. Clearing a lifetime of eating the wrong foods ( believing they were safe..ugh,) will take while.

Latex allergy stopped me from taking bromelain
I was excited to find a natural solution to inflammation and sinus issues. However, after taking this for less than a week, I had a nosebleed that wouldn't stop. After a deep dive on Google, I found out that if you are allergic to latex, you shouldn't take bromelain. Latex Cross-Reactivity: Bromelain is derived from pineapple. People with a latex allergy are at higher risk of an allergic reaction to bromelain. This allergy can manifest as sneezing, itchy throat, or inflammation in the sinuses, which can trigger nosebleeds. I was taking this to get rid of the inflammation in my sinuses, not add to it. I also had tingling in my fingers, which a deep dive on Google said could happen if I am sensitive to quercetin. Quercetin Side Effects: While generally safe, high-dose or sensitive use of quercetin can cause "tingling in the extremities" (numbness/tingling in hands/feet). Thus is neither a high dose of eother of these, nor was it used long-term, so I guess I am sensitive to them both. Beware if you are sensitive to medications and/or have a latex allergy. I can't say if these pills made a positive impact on me, because I only found negative effects, but that is due to my body being so quirky.
