Doctor Schulze as well as herbpharm major maker of organic tinctures have both stated in their literature that the alcohol content of herbal tinctures is negligible and equilateral to that of a ripe banana or mouthwash.

Perhaps this tincture is more I am not sure but nearly all tinctures are safe as far as the alcohol in a standard dose and Schulze states that it is safe for those in AA.

Tom H has reproduced what Schulze said on his site concerning alcohol It is towards the bottom of the page with heading problem consuming alcohol in tinctures

I hope people do not avoid the wonderful effects of his powerful formulas or tinctures in general due to your post as tinctures are THE best and most absorbable way to take herbs as alcohol extracts more of the phytochemicals and other plant nutrients than a tea does and capsules are generally the worst way to take herbs as difficult to absorb.

I have always recommended to the many thousands of people I have helped that they use tinctures as the preferred way to take herbs and the alcohol preserves the herbs for many decades while powdered or cut and sifted herbs laying around your house lose potency in about a year so this allows one to save their herbs if they should need them in the future or use them to mix up new formulas with it they are single herbs.


Sometimes they are not allowed to put a lot of stuff on the labels. Not sure if this is one of them but most herb makers put out additional materials on their products due to not being able to really state what the product does due to FDA rules.

But he does warn people if you are familiar with his body of work This was also in the patient manual but was removed from the online version on curezone I see.

He may have not put all this on the label but he explains that it is safe for those in AA and has been tested on such and also tells how to get rid of the alcohol if you wish.

One does not like the previous poster said need a cup only a tbs of boiling water poured over it will do the trick according to Schulze. Other sites say a 1/2 cup, If one puts a cup of water in these often nasty and bitter tasting tinctures that is a lot harder to consume than a few tbs or less altogether. It also works almost immediately and does not need to sit around

this site tells a way to rid it of all alcohol content but it will no longer be preserved and only last a few days

Many of his formulas are giving in his save your life manual and one can easily make their own with organic herbs. One can get tinctures with vinegar or glycerine and perhaps you could make something similar on your own using one of these as a menstrum.

But I have seen several sites saying the amount in a 2 dropperful tinctues is equal to a ripe banana and most people in AA do not avoid those.
