Frequently Asked Questions about Red Sage Extract
What is Red Sage / Danshen (Salvia miltiorrhiza) root extract?
Red Sage is a perennial plant of the mint family (Lamiaceae), botanically Salvia miltiorrhiza. The part used here is the root, which is a distinctive deep red color - the source of the name red sage. It is one of the most important herbs in traditional Chinese herbalism, where it is called Dan Shen; in English it is known as red sage or Chinese sage. It is a different plant from the common garden sage used in cooking. The root naturally contains constituents such as tanshinones and salvianolic acids. Our extract is offered in two forms - an alcohol-free glycerite and a traditional alcohol-based tincture - each from ethically sourced raw material. This is a whole-root liquid extract that carries the plant's natural spectrum of constituents, not an isolated or standardized single-compound product, and we label it clearly by botanical name and plant part.
What is the difference between the alcohol-free and tincture versions?
Both are liquid extracts of the same Salvia miltiorrhiza root; only the solvent differs. The alcohol-free version is a glycerite made with vegetable glycerin and purified water, suited to those who avoid alcohol. The tincture uses alcohol as the traditional solvent, with vegetable glycerin and water. Both deliver the root's constituents in a convenient liquid you take by the drop. Choose the glycerite if you prefer no alcohol; choose the tincture for a classic alcohol-extracted format with a longer shelf life.
Is red sage the same as the sage I cook with?
No, and this is an important distinction because the name sage is shared by several plants. Our red sage is Salvia miltiorrhiza, the Chinese herb danshen, and we use its red root. That is a different species from common garden or culinary sage, Salvia officinalis, which is the gray-green leaf you cook with - a different plant and a different part. To add to the confusion, the name red sage is also used for an unrelated ornamental shrub, Lantana camara, and sometimes for a red- or purple-leaved variety of garden sage. Ours is none of those - it is specifically Salvia miltiorrhiza, the Chinese danshen root. We label our product clearly by botanical name (Salvia miltiorrhiza) and plant part (root) so there is no confusion with culinary sage, Lantana, or any other plant.
How do I use Red Sage / Danshen liquid extract?
Shake well before use. Use the number of drops and the frequency shown on the label, in a little water, tea or juice, or as directed by your practitioner. Please read the important safety note below before use, especially regarding blood-thinning medication. Drink the entire contents.
Is Red Sage / Danshen extract right for everyone? Important safety information.
Please read this carefully, because danshen has an important drug interaction. Danshen can increase the effect of blood-thinning and anticoagulant medications and raise the risk of bleeding. This is especially well documented with warfarin. For that reason, do not use this product if you take warfarin, another anticoagulant, or an antiplatelet medication such as aspirin, unless your doctor is guiding you. Stop using it before any surgery or dental procedure. Use caution if you take blood-pressure medication. Do not use during pregnancy. If you are nursing, take any other medication, or have a medical condition, also consult a qualified healthcare practitioner before use. Keep out of reach of children, and do not exceed the suggested serving. Store as directed on the label. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
