Herbal Tinctures

 

Herbs are foods, but for 6,000 years of human history, until the chemical and pharmaceutical revolution of the last century, they were also the generally accepted remedies - the “orthodox medicine”!

 

For a generation or so this has been largely forgotten, but now people are beginning to rediscover the health benefits of herbs. This is to be welcomed, but
please read the caution
below.

 

To assure you of the quality of our single tinctures we state the herb/liquid ratio, whether fresh or dried herb is used, the alcohol proportion and country of origin.

 

As well as our range of high quality organic single and mixed tinctures, we are privileged to be able to list some practitioner formulated herbal extracts These are specially formulated by Brian V Lamb, MCPP, Scotland’s leading Medical Herbalist, for use by his own patients in his own clinics. More info

 

Our information page has more information on the preparation and use of herbal tinctures.

 

 

 

The Use of Herbal Tinctures , or any Herbal Preparation Requires Caution

It should not be overlooked that to have been used as medicines for millenia, herbs must have some pretty powerful compounds within them.  If you are taking medication or are pregnant it is always advisable to consult your professional health advisor before starting to take herbal supplements, whether tinctures, liquid extracts, tablets or capsules as they might affect the way the prescribed dose of medication works.

 

Always be careful of taking any herb supplements, whether as tinctures or in any other form, if taking any drugs. You don’t know if the drug dosage will interact with the herb. So always tell your Doctor what herbs or supplements you are taking before starting a course of drugs or antibiotics in case of interaction. Never take a supplement of any kind if you are pregnant without first consulting your medical practitioner or ante natal clinic.

 

A wide range of traditional herbal tinctures are used as nutritional supplements. No medicinal claims are made or implied for any of the herbs or tinctures, only the historical uses for which the herbs or tinctures have been used are mentioned. Suffice it to say that some hospitals are now using tinctures as a complementary form of treatment.
