Adipose Tissue Support Tincture
This is an alcohol-based liquid extract (tincture) of three herbs extracted together in equal parts and taken by mouth: the flowering herb of the purple coneflower, the round leaf of gotu kola and the aromatic leaf of thyme. Each is also sold on its own. It is a traditional herbal product - please read the safety information below before use.
- Echinacea, herb - Echinacea purpurea aerial parts (Asteraceae)
- Gotu kola, leaf - Centella asiatica leaf (Apiaceae)
- Thyme, leaf - Thymus vulgaris leaf (Lamiaceae)
- Extract type: Alcohol tincture, for oral use. Other ingredients: organic alcohol, vegetable glycerin, crystal clear purified water
- Origin: Responsibly sourced cultivated botanicals (echinacea from the USA, gotu kola from Sri Lanka, thyme from Argentina). Gluten free. Made in the USA.
What is in the blend
- Echinacea herb - the flowering aerial parts of Echinacea purpurea, the purple coneflower of the North American prairie with its drooping magenta petals and spiny orange cone. The herb is used here; the root is a separate extract, and Echinacea angustifolia is a different species.
- Gotu kola leaf - a small creeping plant with round, scalloped leaves that grows along ditches and paddies of South Asia; despite the name it is unrelated to kola nut and contains no caffeine.
- Thyme leaf - the small aromatic leaf of the Mediterranean kitchen herb, a member of the mint family.
Why a tincture
The three dried herbs are macerated together in organic alcohol with a little vegetable glycerin and water - the classic herbal method. A tincture keeps for years at room temperature in a cool, dark place, has a green, aromatic taste with a tingling note from echinacea, and a few drops disappear in a glass of water or juice. A serving of 20 to 30 drops is roughly 1 ml of liquid, so the amount of alcohol per serving is small.
How to use
Take by mouth only. Shake well before use. Put the number of drops shown on the label into a little water or juice and drink it, up to the frequency shown on the label. Do not exceed the label serving. Echinacea is traditionally used in courses rather than continuously - do not take this blend for more than eight weeks at a time without talking to your practitioner. Store in a cool, dark place with the cap tight.
Tincture or drops?
If you avoid alcohol or prefer a milder taste, the same three-herb blend is available as Adipose Tissue Support Alcohol-Free Drops - the glycerite version. The herbs and proportions are identical; only the extraction liquid differs.
Important safety information - please read before use
This is an oral herbal product. All three herbs have documented cautions. Please read before use.
- Autoimmune conditions and immune-suppressing medication: echinacea may increase immune activity. Do not use if you have an autoimmune condition such as lupus, multiple sclerosis or rheumatoid arthritis, or if you take immunosuppressants, including after an organ transplant.
- Allergies: echinacea is a daisy-family (Asteraceae) plant - avoid if you are allergic to ragweed, daisies, marigolds or chrysanthemums. Thyme is a mint-family (Lamiaceae) plant. Gotu kola can cause skin sensitivity in some people.
- Liver: rare cases of liver injury have been reported with gotu kola. Stay within the label serving. Stop and see a doctor if you notice yellowing of the skin or eyes, dark urine or unusual fatigue.
- Pregnancy / nursing: do not use.
- Blood thinners and surgery: thyme may slow blood clotting - consult your doctor if you take warfarin or similar, and stop use at least two weeks before surgery.
- Thyroid: thyme may affect thyroid medication - consult your doctor.
- Sedatives: gotu kola may add to the effect of sedative medicines and alcohol.
- Duration: use in courses of no more than eight weeks at a time.
- See a doctor: red, hot, painful or swollen skin can be an infection that needs prompt medical care. Do not use this blend instead of a medical evaluation or any prescribed treatment.
- Age: not for children.
- Contains alcohol. If you have a medical condition or take medication, consult a qualified healthcare practitioner before use. Do not use it to self-treat any medical condition - see a qualified doctor instead. Keep out of reach of children.

Great product
WOW! This is a fantastic product. I'm using mostly for my cosmetic products I hand-craft. This is so excellent for the skin. I expect to buy more, perhaps not right away, but as needed for sure.
GREAT SERVICE
Excellent Seller! Item shipped USPS from Honolulu, HI, to southern California in only 6 days from order date 3-11-2016! Order was correct and very well packed. Price was very good. Item was very fresh, expiration date 4-14-2017. I recommend HAWAII PHARM and will definitely buy from them again.
