Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE Extracts/Tinctures are a convenient and concentrated source of beneficial compounds. Consuming this product in a meal does not supply the same high nutritional and medicinal benefits as taking an Extract/Tincture regularly. They are an excellent alternative to herbal teas, capsules, tablets or pills for assimilation for the following reasons: · Extracts/Tinctures have fast and full absorption. The body uses 98% of liquid extracts and only 39-53% of capsules or tablets. · The body does not need to break down a liquid extract, allowing more of the medicinal properties to be absorbed into the system. This makes an extract much more powerful than a capsule or tablet. · Liquid extracts take 1-4 minutes to assimilate. 85-90% of nutrients in liquid supplements are absorbed in 22-30 seconds. Capsules or pills can take from 20-30 minutes just to break down before the body can even start to assimilate them. · The taste and aroma of an herb can increase its therapeutic effects. INGREDIENTS: Rose Petals and 25% Botanical Spirits (150 proof Everclear alcohol). This Extract/Tincture has 75% grain alcohol in order to preserve the quality of the solution. Alcohol is what ensures that each tincture is completely sterile and free of any bacteria, spores or microbes. BENEFITS: We think of roses to ease loss and heart ache and with emotional upheavals. But roses also have a physiological action in the body as well – anti-inflammatory, antioxident, antibacterial and improved digestive health. Enhances mood and promotes skin vitality. Supports emotional well-being and promotes skin health with its aromatic compounds. SUGGESTED USE: Shake well before using. A typical dosage is one (1) dropper full (3 mg or around 30 drops), taken no more than four (4) times per day. Do not exceed the recommended dosage. HOW TO TAKE IT: Taking Extracts/Tinctures under the tongue (sublingual) can allow for quicker absorption into the bloodstream compared to swallowing. Since alcohol can have a rather offensive taste, we suggest placing a dropper full under the tongue and chasing it with a small glass of water, juice or any other fluid that may taste more pleasant. Swish it around your mouth for 2-20 minutes before swallowing. A second suggestion is to place the dropper full directly in a beverage of choice (an ounce or so) and drink that. Can also be applied topically on the skin.There are alternatives in offering this Extract/Tincture to individuals below 21 years of age or for those sensitive to alcohol’s bite. You can either expose the tincture to air for a while or warm it gently on a very low heat setting. This process accelerates the evaporation of alcohol, rendering the Extract/Tincture milder for consumption. SAFETY INFORMATION: Keep out of the reach of children. Not to be used during pregnancy.
