What is the TincTract PlusTM
Method?
In our Liquid LightTM
product line of liquid herbal TinctractsTM
we use a 3 step process. One of the first steps
in this process is a 14 day cold “Tinc”ture
stage. In this stage the herbs are never heated before
being extracted and set aside. This preserves the natural enzymes
which help the assimilation and give added potency to the
formulas. The second ex“Tract”ion stage uses extremely
low heat, low pressure to capture intact within the Glycerine,
the natural volatile oils, vitamins and minerals. In another part
of the process, we use a custom-built, stainless-steel press to
cold-press out even more nutrients with 6 tons of
pressure. Cold pressing is the method used to yield a product of
superior nutritional quality, creating the least amount of
oxidation with the best extraction. So when someone asks "What is the potency of your
extract?" I hope you can now understand that we can't answer in typical terms, ie: 1:1 strength ratio,
as it doesn't tell the whole story. Most of the competition does it in a one stage, we use 3 stages.
The entire TincTract PlusTM
process has been created to reduce oxidation, preserve
amino acids and optimal nutritional value. Preserving
the plant’s natural colloidal delivery system,
the bioavailability of these nutrients and therapeutic substances
are retained and enhanced, giving our formulas the strong potency
our customers depend on. We use only purified distilled
water to exhance extraction due to its ionic effect, our
TincTracts become instant Liquid Colloidals which again
dramatically increase the body assimilation rate up to 98%!
Shelf Life & Refrigeration
All products age with time and potency will decline as well but we still have TincTract with glycerine
products that are still "good" and were processed over 10 years ago. That that is with no refrigeration!
We recommend most products be used promptly for best results and the FDA requires us to put
a 3 year shelf life on the bottle, yet know that it will last and last.
Why do we use Glycerine instead of Alcohol?
We wanted to offer family herbal products that we could feel 100%
good about, with safe ingredients that would raise no concerns
over possible negative side effects, especially in regards to
children or for those with dietary restrictions. We use pure
Kosher vegetable Glycerine to extract, enhance and
preserve our herbal formulas. Though it tastes sweet, it is not a
sugar and does not raise blood sugar levels. It is a non-toxic
food substance, a natural component of all fats and oils, a good
solvent of herbal constituents and also a preservative.
One herbalist, Dr. Edward Shook, believed Glycerine extracts to
be superior to alcohol and especially beneficial for removing
toxins and inorganic drugs from the body. Some research indicates
that Glycerine has a cleansing and anti-oxidizing effect. As a
natural product of normal digestion, it can be converted into
carbohydrates and burned as fuel, or stored for later use. Also,
Glycerine masks bitter tasting herbs, enhances flavors and
eliminates the nasty taste of alcohol altogether which most
children and many adults find disagreeable. Using our unique
TincTract PlusTM extraction process, we believe our Glycerine
extracts to be exceptionally potent. For family use, the great
taste and advantages of Glycerine-based formulas far outweigh
those of alcohol.
Note: There is no alcohol used at any point
during the process. It is completely alcohol free.
We also use only purified distilled water due to its ionic effect
on the extraction process. This is a very expensive way to
extract using glycerine instead of just water. Most extract in
water or alcohol and then add glycerine for taste and then you
need to refrigerate. No cutting costs here. Only the highest
quality.
