Love This... Thank you so much...
Thanks very much for demonstrating
Thanks for sharing!
now subscribed, I have just made a dried valarian root tincture after following your excellent instructions. Will this be ready in two weeks or do certain herbs require longer. any info appreciated
Thank you 🙏 sir, great full for your teaching and help and kindness 🌟🌟
You are most welcome!
Many thanks for Your simple, informative video. So many, are time wastingly, long winded. May I ask please, what are Your thoughts on using ACV, OR vegetable glycerine? (We prefer not to ingest alcohol)
I have 2 in the making right now. Rosemary and the other is peppermint. I use Jamaican overproof white rum, which is 63% Alcohol. They have been stored in a dark place for 4 weeks. I will be straining them in a few days. I use fresh herbs from my garden and it's my first time making this kind of thing.
Sounds great!
As a hemp microgreens farmer, I plan on making a tincture with this. We will see. Thanks for this!
excellent...thanx
Awesome video shall I know the best method for extracting Ginseng herb? can we use the same method? please advise and thanking in advance
Although I appreciate the demonstration, I haven’t found a book or video yet that goes beyond this. I would like to know how to take this, how much to take, for what reason to take this and finally and appropriate amount of time to take something like this. Is there a reason why.
Herbal tinctures are made by extracting the medicinal compounds from herbs using alcohol or a mixture of alcohol and water. Tinctures are a common form of herbal medicine and have been used for centuries to harness the healing properties of plants. Here are a few reasons why herbs are made into tinctures:
1. Concentration: Tinctures allow for a high concentration of the herb’s active constituents to be extracted, making them potent and effective. The alcohol acts as a solvent, extracting a wide range of beneficial compounds from the plant material.
2. Longevity: Tinctures have a longer shelf life compared to other herbal preparations like teas or dried herbs. The alcohol in the tincture acts as a preservative, helping to maintain the potency and efficacy of the herbal extract over time.
3. Convenience: Tinctures are easy to use and have a longer shelf life, making them convenient for storage and transportation. They also allow for precise dosing, as the concentration of the tincture can be adjusted based on the desired potency.
4. Absorption: The alcohol in tinctures enhances the absorption of the herb’s medicinal compounds into the bloodstream. This can facilitate faster and more efficient delivery of the herb’s therapeutic benefits to the body.
It’s important to note that herbal tinctures should be used with care and under the guidance of a knowledgeable healthcare professional or herbalist, as they can still have potent effects and interactions with other medications or health conditions.
@kimbucha1 hope this helps
I reccomend "Making Plant Medicine" by Richo Cech. It is literally a tincture recipe book with everything you need to know - how to make it, what to use, ratios, alternatives and dosage.
He said why to take it
You have to research the properties of each individual herb yourself.
I love the book Herbal Medicine: From the Heart of the Earth by Dr. Sharol Tilgner. I'm getting a bachelors degree in Herbal Science and that is like our bible!
What alcohol proof should I use for the best? Tincture result, is it 80 proof or more? can you keep it more than two weeks a month or so? ThankYou
HI PETER THANKS FOR THE VIDEO, I AM GONNA TAKE DOWN THE INSTRUCTIONS NOW, HOW WOULD U USE THE TINCTURE
Thank you 💛
You’re welcome 😊
Thank you! I am watching the video from Rwanda. What if we separate the essence from alcohol (maybe half a quantity by distilling) to make it more concentrated. Is it feasible?
I made one from wabugia ugandensis, Artemisia
🙏🧡 simple ánd effective
So during maturation you can keep it on the windowsill? Then once it becomes the actual tincture it’s to go into the dark glass.
Can vegetable glycerin be used to make tinctures
Hello, greetings, do you have the recipe to make Neem tincture?
Would a clear jar work if it’s wrapped in aluminum or painted black?
Thank you for this! It would be really lovely to know what could be used instead of alcohol if alcohol is not tolerated or for children. Also it would be nice to know how you would take the tincture and how dosages are determined.
I DONT HAVE ANY KIDS, BUT GRET QUESTION
The alternative to use is Apple Cider Vinegar.
Glycerine is a substitute for alcohol
I AM ALSO WITH AA IN THE COMMENT SECTION BELLOW
Would a five to one ratio work for this tincture? I thought it had to go into a dark place for several weeks?
Can i use any other liquid than alcohol or vodka ? Thanks !
So 38% alcohol is ideal for tincture?
I ❤️🌹scent! 🥰
What is the dosage?
AND CAN IT BE MADE INTO A TEA
I see a lot of tutorials where people steep their tinctures for 4 up to 8 weeks, is this duration necessary or is it dependent on the herbs you’re using? Thank you
I'm curious about that as well. The ones I've seen are using fresh plant material, so I wonder if that makes a difference?
WHAT IS THIS USED FOR?
So is this a process of making medicine or making liqueurs?
Instead of straining, can you just take out the herbs with spoon? without not getting any liquid leak. I just don't have the straining tools
That looks like about 80 proof Vodka which is 40% alcohol and 60% water. There are very good water soluble properties in fresh plant material.
How much Tincture do you take once it's done?
Allergic to alcohol. Anything else I can use? If you gave alternatives and I missed it forgive me. Would you recommend anything else if I can not have alcohol?
Organic apple cider vinegar is a good alternative for many herbs 👍
@@collegenatmed Thank you for sharing this helpful information. Can I ask you, is there a specific ratio of ACV to use as an alternative to vodka, or is it used the same 1:1 ratio proportion? Do you have any additional instructional materials on your website such as charts or tables?
If I wanted to make a stronger tincture (if possible) can I strain the tincture and then take that same tincture and add herbs to it again to add more herbal benefits. If the answer is no, why not?
I'm not sure why that wouldn't work, but just to be on the safe side I would increase the alcohol percentage of the tincture with additional alcohol and combo that with maybe a 1-2 week reduction in time for the waiting process
My tinctures (some) are years old and unstrained. No issues.
I also strained some and added extra herbs, no issues. Work well (i.e my yarrow tincture breaks down blood clots in 24hours beautifully).
Wow. I love that information on yarrow!!
Most people I've seen say to let it sit anywhere from 4, to 6, to 8 weeks. But they're using fresh plant material. Is the dried material the reason for the shorter time?
I let my dried herb tinctures sit for 8-12 weeks in a dark cool place
I love how he says, we dont want to add too much. Then proceeds to pour more than half a container of vodka😂😂😂😂😂😂
What if you used material that has not been dried and you used 40 proof and 80% alcohol?
You're probably looking at a very minimal reduction in alcohol concentration, but not likely enough to bring down the actual quality of the tincture. For some herbs, a bit of water is actually RECOMMENDED to bring down the strength. The human body can be disturbed by certain herbs in high concentration.
what strength vodka

hi, I would like to know if any rose petal is good for tincture or di I need a specific type of rose. thank you
Hi Elisa, thanks for your question. Any rose with a scent should be good, but the varieties we use medicinally are Damask rose and Rosa gallica. Hope this helps!
Wild roses works best. I found. Undisturbed and uncultivated, natural.
Cultivated must be unsprayed, away from pollution (roads).
Sir, is it possible do this with water? Just asking because of those who doesn't take alcohol. I will appreciate if you can reply me. Thanks.
You can do it with vinegar or honey.
Water will spoil
It sounds as a contradiction to me to use alcohol to relieve a stressed out liver. Does it always have to be alcohol to strain out the useful contents of a plant or herb? I dislike the taste of alcohol very much and have a feeling that something taken with aversion wont do me any good.
You can use viniger too apple cider is best. Alcohol penetrates the herb in a more deeper way than for say vinegar. Since it is a tincture you would only be using a few drops per day under the tongue depending on the medicine you are trying to create. There are so many great books that explain deeper , if you have some great thrift stores you can score some for a cheap price but these are some good titles alchemy of herbs by Rosalee de la forte herb source book David Hoffman he has so many great books . I’m taking an herbalism course and to my understanding tincture are used to intensify the herbs medicine to be taken in a more concentrated way like medicine, than for say a decoction or tea. But yes viniger is a great substitute if you’re trying to avoid liquor. Also a great herb for repairing the lining of the liver is slipper Elm it’s great if you had alcohol damage.
I believe it would still be a liver detox because most tinctures with alcohol are drank with water. Like I ml (1/5 tsp) to 4-8 oz water.
@@angelaterrazas8964 But the alcohol doesnt dissolve in the water. Its still alcohol and alcohol is liver toxic.
What can you do with a tincture? What do you use it for?
My mother is going to make her own with weed.
Ok, but what do you feel like after a pint of tincture?............;)
Can you use stronger vodka?
