From here:  , Dr Schulzes original Heart Formula:

http://healingtools.tripod.com/thn8.html#hrtinc

Heart Tincture:

1. Use the above Cayenne Pepper Tincture Method with 3 parts - Hawthorn Berry, Flower & Leaf, 1 part - Red Clover Blossoms, 1 part - Garlic Bulb, 1 part - Cactus Grandiflorus Stem, 1 part - Motherwort, 1 part - Cayenne Pepper and 1 part - Ginger Root.
2. Take 2-3 Dropperfuls - 3-4 times per Day, if needed.

We need to get this one made and added to the Apothecary.  The reason we hadn't in the past, is that we couldn't find a source for organic Cactus Grandiflorus...and then when we found it, it was $60 a pound and only available for a short period (and we missed the window...argh).

Well, I just checked the source: http://www.horizonherbs.com/product.asp?specific=2268  and found they've had a great growing season, have it available, AND lowered the price to $40 a pound.

inset: Okay, let's have  HUGE round of applause for Horizon Herbs, folks...talk about INTEGRITY!!  They coulda kept selling it for $60 a pound, but instead they're passing their "good harvest blessing" around to everyone else!!"  If you need organic seeds/plants this spring, be SURE to support these wonderful people!!!

Remember: (to those thinking of making the tincture).  Dried vs Fresh herbs make a HUGE difference in "volume" (for example of cup of fresh ginger root dehydrates to about than 1/6 of a cup or less!).  So if you're using all dried herbs for the rest of the tincture, then you should dry/dehydrate the cactus grandiflorus...so you'll be sure the ratios are correct.  Also, I see this "The fresh juice may cause burning of the mouth, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. It can cause itching and skin blisters when applied to the skin. "  So if you're going to be working with the fresh stems, don't ingest them raw and don't handle juicy areas without protection.

One last thing - red clover blossoms MUST be distinctly red/violet in color with no "rust/brown" color (the red/violet color remains red/violet even after drying).  Anything that's rust/brown should not be used, as that shows the blossoms were picked well-past their "peak" (and there's even some random reports of toxicity with 'past peak' red clover blossoms).   These are pricey, too - and last time I checked, both Pacific & M/R are out of stock.

Heal ON!
