Bespoke tincture

Description

Tinctures are a convient way to take strong tasting herbs. The herbal properties are extracted in to ethanol alcohol. The alcohol strengh is adjusted for each herb  to make the best extraction. We use between 20% to 90% alcohol strengh.

Dose is 5ml (1 teaspoon) in water or juice 2 or 3 times a day. Best taken 6 days a week.

Tinctures have a long shelf life. They are best stored in a cool, dark place but do not need to be in the fridge.

Bespoke tincture can be repeated after a consultation or made to your own request from helpful herbs apothecary. Send helpful herbs an email with a photo of your label. We can reply with what is available, make suggestions for substitutes or tell you how long it will take to source the requested herbs. If it was recently sourced from Helpful herbs we will be able to make you a repeat easily. The herb labels are an indication of herbs available. However availability often changes. Wild Yam is very expensive and virtually unobtainable just now. We may have to substitute with another herb. So do ask

If you are pregnant or breast feeding; taking multiple medications or have a serious health condition consult a herbalist before using herbal tinctures.
