Ashwagandha Tincture - Alcohol-Based Withania somnifera Root Extract
This is an alcohol-based liquid extract (tincture) of dried ashwagandha root - Withania somnifera, the winter cherry of the nightshade family (Solanaceae), a cultivated root crop of India.
- Botanical name: Withania somnifera (L.) Dunal (Solanaceae)
- Plant part: Dried root
- Also known as: Ashwagandha, Winter Cherry, Indian Ginseng (a nickname only - it is not a Panax ginseng)
- Extract type: Alcohol tincture - classic herbal liquid extract
- Other ingredients: Organic alcohol, vegetable glycerin, crystal clear purified water
- Origin: Cultivated root, responsibly sourced. Gluten free. Made in the USA.
- Sizes: 2 oz, 4 oz, 32 oz, 64 oz, 256 oz and multi-packs
Why choose the alcohol tincture
- The classic method. The dried root is macerated in organic alcohol with a little vegetable glycerin and water. Alcohol is the traditional solvent for root extracts and has been used by herbalists for centuries.
- Longest shelf life. An alcohol tincture keeps for years at room temperature in a cool, dark place; no refrigeration is needed after opening.
- Concentrated and easy to dilute. The taste is sharper and more herbal than the glycerite; a few drops disappear in a glass of water or juice.
How to use the tincture
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. If you prefer less alcohol taste, put the drops into a cup of hot water and let it stand for a few minutes - much of the alcohol evaporates, although not all of it. Store in a cool, dark place with the cap tight.
How much alcohol is in a serving?
The alcohol percentage of the extract is printed on the label. One serving of 20 to 30 drops is roughly 1 ml of liquid, so the amount of alcohol in a single serving is small; it is the total volume that matters if you take several servings a day. If you need to avoid alcohol completely, the alcohol-free drops are the right choice; if you only want to reduce the alcohol taste, the hot-water method above works well.
Tincture or drops?
If you prefer the traditional alcohol-based extract with a long room-temperature shelf life, this tincture is the one. If you avoid alcohol or want a milder, sweeter taste, see our Ashwagandha Drops - alcohol-free liquid ashwagandha in vegetable glycerin. Both are made from the same dried root.
Tincture, capsules, or a standardized extract?
A tincture and a capsule are different forms of the same root, not different levels of quality: a liquid lets you adjust the number of drops and is absorbed as a drink, while a capsule is a fixed dose of powder. This tincture is a whole-root extract; it is not a standardized product such as KSM-66 or Sensoril, and its withanolide content is not standardized. Despite the nickname "Indian ginseng", ashwagandha is not related to Panax ginseng.
Important safety information - please read before use
Ashwagandha has several important cautions. Please read before use.
- Liver: rare cases of liver injury have been reported with ashwagandha products, usually within the first weeks to months of use. Stop and seek medical advice if you notice dark urine, yellowing of the skin or eyes, unusual tiredness, or abdominal pain. Do not use if you have liver disease.
- Thyroid and hormones: ashwagandha can change thyroid hormone levels. Do not use if you have a thyroid condition or take thyroid medication unless your doctor agrees.
- Pregnancy / nursing: do not use during pregnancy - the root has a traditional history of use to end pregnancy. Avoid while breastfeeding.
- Medication: it may add to the effect of sedatives and sleep medicines, blood-sugar-lowering and blood-pressure medicines, and immunosuppressants. Consult your practitioner if you take any of these. Stop use at least two weeks before scheduled surgery.
- Autoimmune conditions: avoid unless supervised by your doctor.
- Tolerance: larger amounts may cause stomach upset, loose stools, or drowsiness. Keep to the label serving and take breaks rather than using it continuously. It is a nightshade (Solanaceae) plant - avoid if you are sensitive to nightshades.
- Contains alcohol. If you have a medical condition, consult a qualified healthcare practitioner before use. Do not give it to children without medical advice. Do not use it to self-treat any medical condition - see a qualified doctor instead. Keep out of reach of children.
