Why Extracts are Better Than Pills or Capsules
What is a liquid herbal extract?
A liquid herbal extract is a
concentrated solution made from extracting (washing or pulling) constituents out of the
structural matrix of an herb. The naturally occurring chemical compounds are stabilized
(preserved) by certain components of the menstrum (solvent system) used to make the
extract, either alcohol or glycerin. A well made extract should preserve the aroma, taste
and biological effect of the herb from which it is made.
How do our extracts compare to
dried herb capsules?
Because liquid extracts are much
more easily absorbed than powdered herbs, it's impossible to compare powdered herbs with
herbal extracts. Liquid extracts are essentially 'pre-digested' herbs. The natural
constituents from fresh or recently dried herbs are extracted out of the cellulose and
other structural material of the plant and are easily assimilated. The naturally occurring
compounds in powdered herbs must be digested or extracted out of the cellulose matrix of
the herb by our digestive system. This is difficult to do, especially for anyone with
health problems. Additionally, the liquid extract medium is very stable and the herbal
extract remains viable for a long period of time. Powdered herbs degrade quickly from the
greatly increased exposure to oxygen.
Don’t be fooled
by capsules or pills, they can’t deliver the beneficial affects like extracts
can, liquids can be efficiently introduced to the body because our digestive systems are
designed to accept solid food and liquids, not powders. Today’s modern medicines have
pushed ease and simplicity on us with pills and capsules. A portion of a pill or capsule passes through our system where as
liquid is fully digested. An extract is made
when herbal qualities are extracted from the plants and suspended into solution; this
gives a high concentration and easily digested form.
* Extracts are generally more concentrated than capsules and therefore more quickly assimilated by the body.
* Extracts
have a long shelf life and small quantities give good results
