About Nicole's Apothecary

Herbs are a formidable natural medicine. Tinctures are an extremely effective way to harness and utilize the power of medicinal herbs. When we need a natural remedy for a health concern we often reach for a tincture, herbal pill, or tea. All have benefits. However, if you are seeking the most potent natural medicine, high-quality herbal extracts are your best bet. Tinctures are assimilated much more readily than other forms of medicinal herbs. Since tinctures are absorbed directly through the mouth and stomach wall, they bypass the digestive process and are quickly drawn into the bloodstream. It only takes about 5 minutes for the extract to assimilate. Tinctures also offer flexible dosing with the ability to easily increase or decrease dosage to find the best therapeutic fit—unlike teas, tablets, or capsules. Nutrient uptake is maximized with tinctures. Tinctures can be taken straight or diluted in tea, juice, or water. SUPERIOR MEDICINAL MUSHROOM TINCTURES As mushroom supplements gain popularity, many manufacturers grow mycelium, which is an earlier stage of the mushroom grown on grains. When processed, much of the grain is included—and little of the actual mushroom. This results in a substandard product that is high in grain starch and low in beneficial mushroom compounds such as beta-glucans. Here at Nicole's Apothecary we use only the fruiting bodies of the mushroom without fillers. The mushrooms are cultivated in a manner that is time and labor-intensive, but that ultimately yields a superior medicinal product. This creates the most potent extract available. Fruiting body extracts contain 30 to 40 % beta-glucans, compared to mycelium extracts, which typically have only 5 to 7 %. These compounds are known to boost and regulate the immune system, improve glucose tolerance, support heart health, and more. In short, if you are seeking the most potent medicinal mushroom extract, tinctures that utilize the whole fruiting mushroom body are essential.
