How much Hibiscus Tincture can I have?

Adults use 1ml daily.

How do I use a tincture?

Simply put the recommended amount under your tongue or in a glass of water or juice.

Do I choose alcohol or glycerine based?

Glycerine based is a sweet, sugar like solvent that is better for children, those that have a religious or health aversion to alcohol, or those that do not like the taste of alcohol based tinctures.

Alcohol based tinctures have a virtually indestructible lifespan and you will be able to use it for years to come.
