clsneed,

Alcohol is used for making Tinctures for 3 reasons:
1. It dissolves ALL of the Constituents in the Herb.
NOTE: There are ONLY a FEW Herbs, like Lobelia, where you would use 50% Alcohol & 50% Organic RAW Unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar (i.e.-Bragg's) to make a Tincture.
2. It INCREASES the Shelf Life of the Herb Constituents to 10+ years!
3. It makes the Mucous Membranes in the Mouth MORE Permeable, so that the Herbal Constituents can go into the Bloodstream QUICKLY, because they BYPASS the Digestive Process!

"THANKS" for your Questions!

Tom/Ps. 103:1-5.
