Heart Support Tincture
This is an alcohol-based liquid extract (tincture) of two ingredients extracted together in equal parts: the kitchen garlic bulb and the glossy reishi mushroom of East Asian forests. Both are also sold on their own. It is a traditional herbal product and not a replacement for any prescribed treatment - please read the safety information below before use.
- Garlic, bulb - Allium sativum bulb (Amaryllidaceae)
- Reishi, whole mushroom - Ganoderma lucidum fruiting body (Ganodermataceae; a fungus, not a plant)
- Extract type: Alcohol tincture. Other ingredients: organic alcohol, vegetable glycerin, crystal clear purified water
- Origin: Cultivated garlic from the USA and cultivated reishi from Taiwan. Gluten free. Made in the USA.
What is in the blend
- Garlic bulb - the dried bulb of Allium sativum, the same species as culinary garlic, cultivated for thousands of years from Central Asia to the Mediterranean; its pungent sulfur compounds are what you smell when a clove is crushed.
- Reishi (Lingzhi) - the glossy, reddish-brown, fan-shaped mushroom that grows on hardwood stumps in East Asia; the whole fruiting body is used. It is a fungus, not a plant, and ours is cultivated.
Why a tincture
The two dried ingredients 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 pungent, bitter taste in which the garlic is clearly present, 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
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. If you take any medication, take this blend at least two hours apart from it. Store in a cool, dark place with the cap tight.
Tincture or drops?
If you avoid alcohol or prefer a milder taste, the same two-ingredient blend is available as Heart Support Alcohol-Free Drops - the glycerite version. The ingredients and proportions are identical; only the extraction liquid differs. Our Strong Heart Tincture is a different blend of hawthorn leaf and flower with goldenseal root.

EXCELLENT SERVICE!! Lightning shipping, well packaged, amazing experience! Highly recommended!
arrived on schedule and was what the seller said it would be
Helps to calm an over anxious horse and was recommended by our equine chiropractor. Don't need much just to cut the edge.
Bought it for my mom. She hasn't given any feedback but no complaints either.
Item arrived defective with holes in the fabric. Please send a replacement. I'm disabled and can't return unless you pick up. I don't have a printer either. Jane Simons
It came as promised, but I don't think it has the same affect as being at a Kava bar on any of the islands.
Thank you.
Arrived on time. Not 100% sure if it works as described but I have not had any adverse effects. Doesn't tastes like anything so can easily be mixed into water and other drinks!
No problems here. I'm pretty sure it helps.
No instant effects so if you think this will get you going after consumption try something else
