Benefits of herbal tinctures

Maceration of herbs is probably the oldest type of herb processing. Plants steeped in distilled alcohol have also become firmly rooted in Western medicine. Alcohol is used to "breaking" the plant's cell wall , allowing the release of biologically active compounds . The highest quality plants are selected for the tincture and, after thorough cleaning, they are slowly infused in 25% alcohol. . Tinctures are much more concentrated than herbal decoctions themselves, making their effects more noticeable in a shorter period of time. Moreover, thanks to their alcohol content, they have a long shelf life and can last for several years if stored properly. The tincture is packaged in dark bottles to protect it from light. You can take it on its own, but you can also add it to water or juice.
