The only thing odd about their extraction process is that they say they only use water. Mix chaparral in water and you form one big "gum ball" Chaparral is very resinous and resins and water do not mix. This is why I don't recommend making a tea from chaparral. The resins will stick to whatever including the pan wall and the herb itself. Same reason I also recommend mixing the powder with other herbs before taking to help separate the particles so they don't form one big lump when they get wet. If it is going to be extracted a different solvent such as alcohol is really needed.

Their Chaparral extract is powdery, not resinous/sticky. I wonder how they're able to get this by maceration with water alone? They may not be telling me everything.
If they only used water then they are missing a lot of the active components of the chaparral.
