How much alcohol am I consuming per dose when I take a liquid extract?

Frequently Asked Questions
Very little indeed!! If an average dose of an herbal extract is 30-40 drops and the herbal preparation contains 50 % alcohol, then one is consuming 15-20 drops of alcohol with the herbal extractive matter miscible within it. This is simply much less alcohol ingested than if one were to eat a ripened piece of fruit (by virtue of the sugars in fruit that are converted to alcohol when the fruit is consumed).

How can I tell if a liquid herbal extract has gone "bad"?

Herbs Etc.
In my experience with alcohol-containing liquid herbal extracts, it is rare for extracts not to last for years when they are stored properly. With alcohol-free liquid herbal extracts, the product should contain citric acid, a natural preservative. Should the product not contain a preservative such as citric acid, smell the product. If the product has a musty odor or seems to have any growth, immediately discard the product.

Why are herbs in liquid herbal extract form preferable over dried herbs in capsule or tablet form?

Herbs Etc.
The success of herbal products as healing agents is dependent upon how active their constituents (ingredients) are when you ingest them. For maximum therapeutic benefits, therefore, it is important to take herbs in the form that best captures and preserves their active constituents.
