After our last email about our DIY Tincture Kit Special (with a free pack of seeds) we had so many inquiries I thought it best to share with everyone.
What is a Tincture?
An herbal tincture is simply an herbal extract. Herbal remedies have been used throughout history to treat illnesses and ailments.
We use Tinctures for overall wellness! Tinctures are easy to make,
home remedies. If properly prepared and stored, your tincture will
last indefinitely.
Have you given any thought to making your own herbal home remedies?

DIY Thai Holy Basil Tincture
In Ayurvedic medicine, Holy Basil is used as a tea or a
tincture. Among its many medicinal uses are lowering cholesterol, as an
immune booster, and lowering blood glucose levels.
"One
of the primary medicinal uses for basil is for its anti-inflammatory
properties. This effect stems from eugenol, a volatile oil in basil that
blocks enzymes in the body that cause swelling, making basil an ideal
treatment for people with arthritis. Basil, especially as an extract
or oil, is known to have exceptionally powerful antioxidant properties"

anti-irritant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-microbial properties.

DIY Cayenne Tincture *NEW*
Cayenne Pepper is
a nightshade vegetable. While adding a little (or a lot) of hot and
spicy to any dish, cayenne pepper can also be very therapeutic.
Cayenne pepper contains capsaicin which can open up your sinuses, fight
inflammation, cardiovascular support, helps with ulcers, boosts immune
system and metabolism.
THIS
is what got my attention: "Cayenne pepper's bright red color signals
its high content of beta-carotene or pro-vitamin A. Just two teaspoons
of cayenne pepper provide 47% of the daily value for vitamin A. Often
called the anti-infection vitamin, vitamin A is essential for healthy
epithelial tissues including the mucous membranes that line the nasal
passages, lungs, intestinal tract and urinary tract and serve as the
body's first line of defense against invading pathogens." Continue Reading
