Question 3

Q: How do I take this? Can I mix this with juice or a smoothie?

Accepted Answer

A: All of our tinctures can be taken sublingually (under the tongue), orally, or in juice, water, smoothies, applesauce, etc. -- except for Digest-Support, which must be taken alone with as little water as possible 20 minutes before a meal. If giving multiples, they can be mixed together in a cup -- except for Digest-Support, which must be taken alone with as little water as possible 20 minutes before a meal. Be sure not to let the dropper touch the mouth as this can cause contamination. When taking yourself, drop from above your mouth under your tongue. When giving to someone else, ask them to open their mouth and lean their head back so you can drop it in.

Question 4

Q: Is there a difference between Alcohol and Alcohol-free (glycerin)?

Accepted Answer

A: Yes! The difference is not in the age at which the tincture should be taken but in the menstruum (or liquid base) of the tincture and its taste. Alcohol-based tinctures extract herbal properties in slightly different ways than other menstruums. Along with the strong extracting powers comes the strong taste of alcohol, however. This taste may not be for everyone. Alcohol-free or glycerin-based extracts are powerful yet at extracting herbal properties, just some properties in different ways. The big advantage of glycerin is that it has a very sweet taste. So, while both are great for adults and kids alike, alcohol-free will give you the best chance for kids to like the taste.
