Mother tinctures and plant extracts from the herbalist's shop
What is a mother tincture?
A organic mother tincture is a hydroalcoholic fresh plant extract concentrated with a high content of active ingredients.
The maceration of the fresh plant in alcohol lasts at least 3 weeks in order to extract the largest possible quantity of available molecules
It is possible to make a mother tincture with all plants but this does not mean that all mother tinctures of plants can be used internally or externally!
In order to obtain these famous herbal dropsIn order to increase the contact surface between the solvent (alcohol) and the plant, it is advisable to chop the plant (leaf, fruit, bark, root or flower)
How to use mother tincture?
A mother tincture as it comes in liquid form, it is best to dilute the recommended number of drops in a glass of water, to drink before the meal. This advice is obviously only valid for mother tinctures which are taken in internal use. If the taste is too strong, you can dilute the mother tincture in orange juice for example. Some hydroalcoholic extracts can also be used as gargles, i.e. as mouthwashes.
For mother tinctures that are not used in internal useYou can dilute the preparation, soak a compress and apply it directly to the skin. This is the case for example with arnica mother tincture.
How to use the Arnica mother tincture?
As noted earlier, the arnica mother tincture is a preparation that can only be used for external use. It is therefore advisable tosoak a compress after having diluted the mother tincture 5 times in water. This compress can be applied directly to the skin, at the site of the blow or hematoma. However, be careful to do not apply the Arnica mother tincture to a wound.
The mother tinctures have many qualities:
- their shelf life is longer than other galenic forms (2 to 3 years)
- their richness in active ingredients makes them a natural quality solution
- the herbalists like to use them because the dosage can be done very precisely, by the drop, which allows to personalize the recommendations.
