The labels applied to the front and back of each 32 oz. container of this product, along with its Safety Data Sheet (SDS), are displayed below. Note that the batch numbers on the labels apply to each specific hand-made batch, and though the batch numbers change with each new batch we produce, the formula and production method remains essentially the same. With time, we do make small, incremental changes to our proprietary production methodology. Those changes, which generally add more tedium to the hand-made approach we take, are undertaken because they result in an even better product with every batch. The current batch, 060122, is clearly the best we’ve ever produced:

What is HabitatBiotics™ LR35? How did it get its start? And why was it developed?

What it is — HabitatBiotics™ LR35 is a multi-purpose, multi-surface cleanser, whose active ingredients are faithfully derived from plant-based constituents. It represents, in its present form, the results of more than 40 years of research and development. Please note that this product is not intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease, and is not intended to affect the structure or any function of the body of man or other animals, as defined by FD&C Act, sec. 201(g)(1).

How it got its start — The product that today is branded as HabitatBiotics™ LR35 owes its origins to a simple hypothesis that I learned from my mother as a mere child. She had grown up believing that botanical structures and their extracted phytochemicals were a special gift to humanity from our Maker. In particular, she was convinced they could provide a superior means of achieving good hygiene.

One enduring memory is of mom taking a small twig from a black gum tree, and turning it into a toothbrush. “All you have to do, Jerry,” she told me, “is bend the twig until it breaks, like this...” She bent the twig in half, and it split into hundreds of connected, minuscule slivers. Bending it once more, in the opposite direction, caused the slivers to break apart, producing two twig sections, each with a fluffy brush at its tip. “When I was your age, in the early 1900’s,” she said, “toothbrushes were hard to find and more expensive than some folks could afford. With a dab of wet baking soda and one of these we could keep our teeth clean and white for next to nothing.

Mom’s garden was loaded with herbs, and though — in my childhood — I didn’t pay enough attention to all the ways she combined and used them to brighten our lives, I will never forget the almost rapturous appreciation she felt for the hygienic qualities they possessed. Later, as an adult away from home, I remembered how strongly she believed in those qualities. She was a deep thinker, and she bolstered her thoughts by action, confirming her notions with practical applications.

Her convictions in that sphere bordered on, and even transcended into, the truly spiritual realm. Had that not been true, perhaps I’d have dismissed her assertions as trivial meanderings of the human mind. Instead, I still remember her devotion to herbal goodness with great fondness. Those indelible memories eventually formed the impetus behind a mission of my very own: to produce, directly from natural herbs and spices, the most effective plant-based, biodegradable cleanser imaginable, one that leaves nothing but cleanliness and goodness behind.

Why it came into being — Keeping physically clean, not just bodily but environmentally as well, is not a trivial pursuit. As mom would put it, it’s the key to a long and healthy life, not only for individuals, but for communities alike. But real cleansing should do more than just wash away ordinary grime, the way a good bar of soap, or a sudsy solution does. Real cleansing, the kind plants do for themselves, goes an extra step. It keeps on cleaning by cloaking its user and critical parts of the user’s environment with a durable but practically invisible mantle of cleansing goodness, without creating another mess in the process. So, when — as a young man working as an analyst for a research firm in upstate New York — I was desperate for a cleanser that could be counted on to do just that, I thought of mom and turned to nature for help.

Nature does not reveal answers to vexing questions quickly. It took me decades of research and development to confirm mom’s original hypothesis in practical terms. What I learned was that plant phytochemicals do, indeed, hold the key to real cleansing. Nature’s plants vest their cleansing powers in a huge list of wildly different phytoconstituents, all acting in harmony like a well-organized army of cleanup technicians. That swarm of dedicated, microscopic janitors combines their individual talents, synergistically, to protect their plants and the immediate environs in ways none could do all by themselves.

Each individual phytochemical donates its unique talents to the group, creating a collective functionality that transforms ordinary cleansing power into a genuine superpower. Plants use that superpower every minute of every day to become, and stay, the best that they can be.

Better yet, they do all that without creating more messes in the process. But here’s the best part: that very same army of phytochemicals, applied in the right combinations and concentrations, can be extracted from one kind of plant, then combined with those extracted from other kinds of plants, and made to work just as well for us as they do for all the plants that make them.

The Rest of the Story…

Starting from scratch in the 1960’s, I’d sought to prove mom’s original hypothesis. It wasn’t easy, and took a lot of time, but besides exercising my cranial faculties with intellectual challenges, the end result inevitably bore fruit. That told me mom was right and confirmed I was on the right track. Way back then, when little was published on plant extractives, I ferreted out and devoured all the writings on botanical constituents I could find. Those studies have continued uninterrupted, even during the two+ years I spent in Vietnam and on up to the present day. Along the way I gathered supplies of essential oils and powdered herbs, made decoctions and tinctures, and slowly became informed enough to formally embark on the quest that finally led to this.

I call it HabitatBiotics because the conjunction of “habitat” and “biotics” succinctly expresses the very essence of nature. The L is for one of the two most prominent essential oils it contains, East Indian lemon grass. The R is for the other one, distilled from a special kind of rosemary needles. And the 35 refers to how much of each — 0.35% — is exploited in the process of blending together the finished product.

Its present recipe includes extracts from a total of four essential oils and eleven herbs and spices. These ingredients are themselves comprised of hundreds of different phytochemicals, many more than the 97 major ones I’ve listed later in this article. For most of these herbs and spices I’ve adapted the abbreviated lists provided in Tisserand et al.’s authoritative reference “Essential Oil Safety,” 2nd Edition,  which purports to include the major phytoconstituents of each. For those not covered in that reference I adapt the lists derived from other specific sources, and identify the source in the body of the reference itself.

In my lab each herb and spice is subjected to a lengthy extraction process, then married together in a base of purified water combined with naturally distilled alcohol and white vinegar. Later I added a tiny amount of technical grade thymol, a phenol derived from p-Cymene, found in oil of thyme, to enhance the formula’s sole functionality, as a superior, biodegradable cleanser.

Most important, though, is the way all these ingredients are “married.” That process, like the development and maintenance of any desirable and wholly functional marriage, is done in a slow and carefully scripted procedure. Every time I’ve tried to speed things up, by using shortcuts to reduce labor expense, the quality of the final product suffered. Making this stuff strictly by hand is indeed tedious. But doing it any other way always produces an inferior result. 

What It’s Good For…

The uses I recommend for HabitatBiotics™ LR35 are simple and direct:

HabitatBiotics™ LR35 works practically everywhere, as a multi-purpose, multi-surface herb & spice based cleanser. It is intended to be used for a broad range of cleansing purposes, thereby maintaining both a clean body and a clean environment.

I could write page after page about the ways it can be used, but that would be a waste. You need to experience its goodness yourself, to discover how your unique cleansing needs make it work best for you.

Its body is derived from a select combination of natural, botanical sources, faithfully extracted and combined, in a mixture unsullied by preservatives and other, potentially harmful additives. All I’ve done is make those botanical constituents available for you to use as you see fit. Each is a complex composition of the phytochemicals used by plants to get clean and stay clean.

That, in a nutshell, is what HabitatBiotics™ LR35 is here to do… cleanse us — you and me and the rest of us — from the effects that accompany the state of being “dirty.” Let that concept soak in. Consider it even a kind of IQ test, if you want to. Then imagine the possibilities. No, it isn’t magical, any more than any of nature’s plants are magical, but its results are truly special. Use it. Play with it. Experiment with it. You’ll  see what I mean.

How I Selected the Herbs and Spices Included in HabitatBiotics™ LR35…

For a candidate herb or spice to qualify for inclusion in HabitatBiotics™ LR35, specific criteria had to be met:

  1. A demonstrable cleansing functionality. Cleansers eliminate, neutralize and/or remove contaminants. Anything that performs in one or more of those roles automatically qualifies for consideration
  2. A superlative toxicity profile. The herb or spice must pose no danger to the user or to any of the desirable objects or organisms within the cleansing environment.
  3. A propensity for biodegradation. The herb or spice must readily biodegrade without creating objectionable residuals in the process.
  4. A favorable interaction profile. When the herb or spice is combined with all the other ingredients in the formulation, a net positive synergy must be achieved.

Every herb and spice included in HabitatBiotics™ LR35, meets all four. Those herbs and spices are  listed separately below, in the order of their occurrence in the product’s Safety Data Sheet (SDS).

Replicated Phytoconstituents…

Many plant constituents are replicated within the different herbs, spices, and their essential oils that are represented in the mix. Consequently, their ultimate concentration within the HabitatBiotics™ LR35 formula can only be estimated by summing the fractions from each herb and spice, as described in the listing that follows.

About Cats…

Our feline friends do not possess the UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) enzymes needed to efficiently neutralize phenols, so concentrated essential oils with the wrong ingredients can be toxic to them. Practically every veterinarian with a web site rightfully points this out. The HabitatBiotics™ LR35 recipe was formulated and tested with this concern in mind, to make it as cat-friendly as possible. I believe it’s as safe for cats as a cleanser can be, but for users with cats, that belief should not be accepted merely on faith. Our label cautions against direct application to a cat’s skin or fur, and recommends that cats be removed from areas where HabitatBiotics™ LR35 is used until the spray has dried. Are we going overboard in those recommendations? Maybe. But we’d rather be too cautious than not enough. That said, I feel moved to add parenthetically that some cat-lovers have used small amounts of  HabitatBiotics™ LR35 on their cats to assist with special, temporary cleansing needs, always with excellent results. But they’ve done so for only as long as needed to get the job done.

And Now, About the Phytochemicals you are about to review…

The long list that follows is only a part of the micro-cleansers contained within each of the plant extractives making up HabitatBiotics™ LR35. Each has a plethora of faculties, capabilities they employ to keep the plants that make them clean. I have not attempted to list those faculties here. If I did, this article would become so enormous it wouldn’t be very readable. Look them up and you will see what I mean. When you do, you will also find that some also have a number of easily misunderstood demerits associated with them.

In high concentrations, most phytochemicals can actually be harmful. We just mentioned how they can be harmful to cats when applied injudiciously and at high concentrations. It happens that in the wrong concentration they also can harm humans. Yet, in the low concentrations represented here, especially when combined with a plurality of differing kinds of phytochemicals, they become extraordinary — and essentially harmless — cleansers. That’s why I show, for each one, its range of concentration in HabitatBiotics™ LR35. Many are represented in such small amounts that they might be more appropriately described in parts per million or parts per billion. I’ve refrained from adding those measuring schemes to the narratives in the interest of keeping the text as uncluttered as possible.


Essential Oils:

  • Lemon Grass (Cymbopogon flexuosus) leaf essential oil, (Tisserand et al. p. 334-5) is derived — for use in HabitatBiotics™ LR35 — from East Indian lemon grass, which is an angiosperm in the order Poales (grasses, bromeliads and sedges), the family Poaceae (the grasses), and the tribe Andropogoneae (the sorghum tribe). The genus Cymbopogon contains a broad spectrum of grasses, many of which are cultivated for their culinary and herbal qualities. Cymbopogon flexuosus and its close relatives have long, narrow leaves with sharp edges. At maturity these grasses reach over six feet in height. Because those extracts contain several of the same phytoconstituents present in citrus, the flavors and fragrances of each are almost indistinguishable. The exact percentage of this specific essential oil that remains in the finished HabitatBiotics™ LR35 formula is not disclosed, but an amount equal to 0.35% of the raw mix volume was exploited in its production, a portion of which is removed during the curing process. The major phytoconstitiuents known to be present in this herb are listed below in the order of their typical concentrations:

  • Rosemary (Salvia rosmarinus) Essential Oil, (Tisserand et al., p.407-9) is derived from an angiosperm shrub in the order Lamiales, the family Lamiaceae (the mints, deadnettles, and sages), and the genus Salvia. Native to the Mediterranean region, it is now cultivated and wild-crafted throughout all those parts of the world where climate and soil conditions allow it to thrive. All parts of the plant contain volatile phytochemicals, though they are particularly concentrated in the aerial parts, especially within its leaves. Until 2017 this botanical resided in the genus Rosmarinus. As a genus that name is now obsolete, but lives on here as this species epithet and as the descriptor of a monophyletic clade of species within the genus Salvia. At least seven rosemary chemotypes (plants with nearly identical outward appearances but with differing biochemical constitutions) are recognized, each with a distinct phytoconstituent profile. The exact percentage of this specific essential oil that remains in the finished HabitatBiotics™ LR35 formula is not disclosed, but an amount equal to 0.35% of the raw mix volume was exploited in its production, a portion of which is removed during the curing process.
