Description:
Elecampane is a herb originating from Europe and parts of Asia, and the root is used to make medicine.
The scientific name of elecampane was thought to be named after Helen of Troy and is part of the Asteraceae family. The ancient Romans initially used elecampane as a remedy for many ailments, specifically those of the skin, brain, kidneys, stomach, and uterus. Elecampane was later popularly used in lozenge form in the 17th century.
Phyto-Force only uses top quality herbs:
- Most of our herbs are sourced from country of origin, namely Germany, Switzerland, Asia, South America and all our herbs are obtained with quality tested and assured certificates.
- All herbs are either wildcrafted or where possible, organically grown. The balance of indigenous herbs are sourced from local organic herb growers.
- Each batch of herb is tested against a quality control sample for colour, aroma, texture and taste. Each single herb has its own unique optimum alcohol/water ratio for extraction. Each herb is thus extracted individually and filtered through Micro Filtration Systems.
Benefits of a tincture:
- Simplicity at its best is what a tincture offers you.
- Concentrated herbal extracts are achieved by different parts of the plant being soaked in ethanol in order to draw out the active ingredients of the herb.
- Tinctures are fast acting as they are absorbed directly by mucous membranes.
- It enters the blood stream thus bypassing the digestive tract and liver, making it easy for those who shy away from bulky, hard to swallow tablets.
- A wider selection is available as each individual herb can be found within the Phyto Force range, allowing one to treat a vast range of ailments.
- A few drops in water 2-3 times daily allows for optimal health benefits to be attained.
How soon will you see a difference after starting to use a tincture:
- Generally some improvement will be experienced within anything from couple of hours to 4-6 weeks, although this
varies widely. Treatment of chronic problems is sometimes slow, taking many months.
Note: The ethanol found in the tinctures are for preservative measures.
Note on alcohol content for kids – there are very little alcohol in the few drops needed to take at a time, however if you drip it in a small container and leave it for a few minutes, most of the alcohol should evaporate.
