WHAT IS A TINCTURE?

A tincture is used for a variety of health conditions and it is often used in homeopathic or herbal medicine. Prior to the last decade or so tinctures were utilized widely as a form of medicine. A tincture is consumed to heal medical condition or health problems. The steps below are how you can make a tincture at home to help treat your minor health issues.

1. A strong alcohol such as vodka, rum or gin can be used.
2. Stick the needed herbs in a jar.
3. Fill a jar half way with the alcohol (over the herbs).
4. Let the tincture sit for 1-2 weeks and drink a small portion (portions should be researched!) each day for symptoms.

These are just my opinions. You should do your own research when trying anything on this site.
