TINCTURES

from AMAZON HERBS®

Herbal tinctures are generally used extensively in alternative medicine.
These are preparations of plants (or parts of plants) in a water / alcohol mixture of various ratios.
We use dry - or fresh herbs depending on the preparation.
The alcohol content is at least 45% so the tincture can be kept for some years after the date of manufacturing.
Bitter melon tincture Most, but not all, preparations are in a 1:4 strength; that means 1 part herbs against 4 parts solvent (water + alcohol).
All the herbs, seeds and rhizomes are wild harvested in the Amazon Rainforest by our own collecting teams.
We use USP grade (UNITED STATES PHARMACOPEIA), naturally derived alcohol and pure spring water.
The menstruum composition and strength can vary for different applications.
The solvent concentrates the phytochemicals* present in the plant.
Our herbal tinctures stand for at least 3 months before being filtered and bottled.
Tinctures from plants are fast acting (they are easily assimilated by the body) and powerful!
They are easier to use, simply add to water or juice. Tinctures are better assimilated and the alcohol used is the safest and the most effective method of extracting the phyto-chemicals from the herbs, rhizomes and seeds.
Herbal dietary supplements are generally considered safe and have far fewer side effects than prescription- and OTC drugs.
