Update on Chaparral extraction process

[quote]
Depends a lot on the extraction process. But again they likely used the dried herb and even if not the dried extracts would still be prone to oxidation, which will get rid of the alkaloids.

I asked ForestRx to explain their Chaparral extraction process. Here is their reply:

It is fresh herb that goes through maceration process with water. Then the liquid is dried with pressure extraction process, and the residuals are the powder extract that we supply. The product goes through a heat process in order to dry the liquid.

Sounds like the heat process that dries the liquid will get rid of the alkaloids since they are unstable. That, plus further oxidation of the dried extracts in storage, should get rid of any remaining alkaloids, right? Tweet
