WHAT IS A TINCTURE?
A tincture is an herbal extract using a 1:5 ratio extract. As alcohol is the most effective extracting agent, most herbalists use it in their tinctures to pull the active constituents out of the plant. We at Jenny Q's Herbals are no exception. We use organic alcohol and distilled water to form the menstrum (extraction medium) in all our tinctures. For each herb, a different amount of alcohol and water is used for the most potent herbal extract. We mix single herbal tinctures in our formulas, for a custom, yet potent tincture formula. Jenny Q's Herbals uses the percolation method of tincturing, a superior method of extraction.

WHY A TINCTURE?
Some argue that a tincture is the best way to ingest herbs. The reasoning behind this philosophy is that a tincture does not have to be digested. The active part of the plant passes into the bloodstream using the alcohol as its vehicle. So, not only does alcohol create a potent extract, it helps the body assimilate the herb much more readily than drinking a tea or swallowing a pill. Because a tincture is concentrated plant constituents, one only has to take 1-2 dropperfuls a couple times a day (depending on the herb and specific administration instructions) as opposed to a quart of tea each day (therapeutic dose for herbal remedies).

We believe that in order to produce an effective herbal remedy, one must start with high quality, fresh herbs and have an efficient extraction process. We have a full line of single tinctures and our own special formulas, blended by our herbalist, Jenny Q.

Herbal Formula Tinctures

Our tincture blends are formulated by our herbalist, Jenny Q. She was educated at the California School of Herbal Studies in Forestville, California and studied under David Hoffman. These formulas are unique in that they combine Middle Eastern and Western herbalism. They are potent and (most of them) even taste great!

TONICS WORK BEST WHEN TAKEN ON A THREE MONTH SCHEDULE

Whole Person/Whole Health philosophy - We at Jenny Q's Herbals believe in a health regime that involves working with one body system at a time in order to allow our bodies to focus. If one wants, for example, to start working on their immune system, we suggest using only this tonic, the Immune Power, for three months. Take a couple weeks off and then start on the respiratory (Respiratory Remedy), the liver (Healthy Liver) and so on. This way, we do not overload our bodies and can allow full attention to healing one system at a time. This does not include using remedies for acute illness.

Our Herbal Formula Tinctures

ADRENAL ACTION - (TONIC) Used for fatigue and exhaustion caused by frequent or prolonged stress. This is especially useful when one experiences "constant fatigue" or the "inability to feel rested". When a person is stressed or has had pain, injury, or illness, the adrenal glands release the hormones that induce the fight-or-flight response. When these conditions are prolonged, our adrenal glands become depleted, and our bodies can no longer cope with stress. This prohibits our bodies from handling stress or retaining full recovery. You know you are in need of adrenal toning if you jump through the roof every time a door slams.

1oz $9.00, 2oz $16.00

ANXIETY FREE - (TONIC) Use this tonic when the body is run down due to extended periods of stress and anxiety. Tonics are most effective on a 3 month schedule. Anxiety Free works best when taken in conjunction with the single remedy Eleuthero.

1oz $9.00, 2oz $16.00

BODY BOOST - Increases stamina and restores physical health. Formulated to boost energy and aid recovery in a training program. Take 10 - 15 minutes before each workout.

1oz $10.00, 2oz $18.00

COLD & FLU FORMULA - For the treatment of acute symptoms of Cold and Flu; including cough, excess catarrh (mucous) in lungs and nasal passages, fever, and restless, achy muscles. Contains herbs that have antibiotic and anti-viral properties. Because this formula has antibitotic properties, it is best to take probiotics after a course with this formula.
1oz $10.00, 2oz $18.00

DIGEST AID -(ACUTE and TONIC) This Bitters formula is used to help prevent weak digestion, heartburn, and weak appetite. Stimulates the body's own digestive system, so helps to digest food without the crutch of antacids or enzymes. Also helps to balance the G.I. tract when afflicted with Irritable Bowel Syndrome. As a tonic, Bitters have been taken daily for centuries to bring about general wellness and to put the body into balance. Restores all of the body's organs to a working balance.
1oz $9.00, 2oz $16.00

ECHINACEA/GOLDENSEAL - (ACUTE) This potent blend is taken to boost the system and battle an illness caused by a bacteria (not a virus).
1oz $11.50, 2oz $21.00

HEALTHY LIVER - (TONIC) This formula is a protective tonic for the liver. Can be used in a cleansing program or for support and maintenance after prolonged illness or substance abuse.
1oz $9.00, 2oz $16.00

IMMUNE POWER - (TONIC) This tonic is used in cases of weak or compromised immune systems - anyone who is "catching every bug". Helps to boost the body's natural ability to fight illness. Perfect for the person who got sick and is now catching every 'bug' of the season. This is a perfect formula to take for three months before the cold and flu season starts. For anyone who is determined to stay healthy all season.
1oz $10.00, 2oz $18.00

RESPIRATORY REMEDY - (TONIC and ACUTE) Indicated in general coughs associated with respiratory congestion, bronchitis, or pneumonia. Also acts as an anti-microbial associated with respiratory illness. This remedy is excellent as a general respiratory system tonic, for those who smoke, and those who have a tendency toward chronic bronchitis or pneumonia.
1oz $10.00, 2oz $18.00

SENSUAL APHRODISIAC - (ACUTE) For use in cases of diminished libido, sexual frigidity, and performance anxiety. Also decreases the amount of time for women to reach climax. Though some might find that this formula works immediately, most feel the effects after a week of use.
1oz $9.00, 2oz $16.00

WOMYN'S BLEND - (TONIC) Used for pre-menstrual and pre-menopausal symptoms, such as painful cramping, bloating, and emotional turmoil. Also used for balancing irregular cycles. As a tonic, this blend favorably affects the general health of the uterus and ovaries and helps to maintain their balanced function. Brings the hormones estrogen and progesterone into balance. "Chaste Tree [Vitex berry] preparations are used to treat irregularities of the menstrual cycle, premenstrual complaints..." (PDR for Herbal Medicines First Edition, 1998.)
1oz $9.00, 2oz $16.00
