Herbal tinctures are liquid herbs. They are made by aging an herb in alcohol or apple cider vinegar, resulting in a more potent herb that is easily aborbed and used by the body. Herbal tinctures are sometimes called extracts too.
Herbal tinctures can often be purchased at a local or online health food or herbal supply store. Some combination tinctures can be purchased, but usually you’ll find single herbs available in this form instead. An example that’s become popular in recent years is Tea Tree Oil. When you buy this herb, it comes as a liquid in a small brown bottle and usually has a dropper attached to the lid for easy use.
