Tonsils Support Alcohol-Free Drops
Tonsils Support Alcohol-Free Glycerite, Arjuna Bark, Hawthorn Berry, Kudzu Root
Tonsils Support Alcohol-Free Drops
This is an alcohol-free liquid extract (glycerite) of three herbs extracted together: the pale bark of an Indian riverside tree, the red autumn berry of the hawthorn, and the starchy root of the kudzu vine. Each is also sold on its own. It is a traditional herbal product - hawthorn and arjuna interact with heart and blood-pressure medicines - please read the safety information below before use.
- Arjuna, bark - Terminalia arjuna bark (Combretaceae)
- Hawthorn, berry - Crataegus laevigata berry (Rosaceae) - the berry, not the leaf and flower
- Kudzu, root - Pueraria lobata root (Fabaceae)
- Extract type: Alcohol-free glycerite - liquid drops. Other ingredients: vegetable glycerin, purified water
- Origin: Responsibly sourced botanicals. Gluten free. Made in the USA.
What is in the blend
- Arjuna bark - the smooth, whitish bark of a tall tree that lines riverbanks across the Indian subcontinent, peeling naturally in thin flakes; the bark, not the root, is the part used in Ayurveda and here.
- Hawthorn berry - the small red fruit of the thorny European hedgerow tree, gathered in autumn. The leaf and flower are a separate spring preparation, used in several of our other blends.
- Kudzu root - the large, starchy root of the fast-growing vine of China and Japan (known there as ge gen), also naturalized in the American South. This is Pueraria lobata, a different plant from Pueraria mirifica.
Why the alcohol-free drops
The three dried herbs are extracted together in vegetable glycerin and purified water, so there is no ethanol in the bottle - the version to choose if you avoid alcohol. Glycerin gives the drops a mild, naturally sweet taste that softens the astringent note of the bark.
What is a glycerite?
A glycerite is a liquid herbal extract made with vegetable glycerin instead of alcohol. Glycerin is a clear, naturally sweet liquid from plant oils; it extracts and preserves the water-soluble parts of the herbs. Because glycerin is a weaker preservative than alcohol, keep the bottle refrigerated after opening. The glycerin and water percentages are printed on the label.
How to use
Shake well before use. Put the number of drops shown on the label into a little water, juice or tea and drink it, up to the frequency shown on the label. Do not exceed the label serving, and do not use continuously for more than a few months without a practitioner. Refrigerate after opening and use within the period printed on the label.
Drops or tincture?
If you prefer the classic alcohol-based extract with the longest shelf life at room temperature, the same three-herb blend is available as Tonsils Support Tincture - the alcohol-based version. The herbs and proportions are identical; only the extraction liquid differs.
