Burdock Root w/ Sarsaparilla Tincture
About Burdock Organic Tincture Tinctures uses aromatics and botanicals that can include any combination of herbs, roots, bark, fruit, seeds, or flowers and alcohol. You can also use vinegar or glycerin, but alcohol is best because it acts as a universal solvent, so it’s able to extract essential oils from herbs, roots, and mushrooms, as well as most of the other beneficial compounds. It also makes the tinctures last virtually forever. The alcohol is fatal to any microorganisms, so there is little possibility for the tincture to decompose. Using tinctures allows easier and faster absorption of healing plant compounds. This is because it starts absorbing through the stomach wall, or your mouth when taken orally, so rather than being digested, like the rest of the things you drink or eat, the medicinal substances go directly into your bloodstream. Not only that, but the large concentration of medicinal properties you find in a tincture makes them more potent than most remedies. Tinctur
