Personalized Guidance
Our Herbal Support Finder matches you with herbs based on your wellness goals, health profile, and medications.
Tinctures are concentrated — follow dosing guidelines carefully. Not suitable for those avoiding alcohol (use glycerites instead). Some herbs are only safe as tinctures in very small doses.
Alcohol tinctures last 3-5 years or more when stored properly in dark glass away from heat and light.
Capsules bypass taste, which can be important — bitter taste stimulates digestion. For digestive herbs, teas or tinctures may be more effective. Always follow recommended dosing.
Store in airtight containers away from moisture. Use within 6-12 months for best potency.
