Sage Mother Tincture:
The Mother Tincture (TM) is a liquid preparation obtained by extracting the fresh herbal drug through percolation o maceration with a suitable solvent.
The most commonly used solvent in Mother Tinctures is a hydroalcoholic solution (water + alcohol) with a variable concentration (most often between 60° and 80°), depending on the solubility of the active compounds to be extracted.
Sage mother tincture is an herbal preparation extracted from the leaves of the Common Sage (Salvia Officinalis), which are macerated at a ratio of 1:10 in a solution of water and Alcohol.
This is an herbal remedy considered particularly useful for promoting women's well-being during menopause.
Glyceric Sage Macerate: what is it?
In recent years, Mother Tinctures extracted with Vegetable Glycerin instead of Alcohol, which makes them better from several points of view.
Furthermore, since Glycerin is a less powerful and therefore less extractive type of solvent than Alcohol, innovative extraction techniques are used, such asUltrasound Extraction.
Ultrasound Extraction is an innovative, clean, easy and quick extraction technique that makes it possible to extract active compounds from plants, particularly medicinal plants, and produce high-quality botanical extracts, exploiting the exclusively mechanical action exerted by the cavitation effect produced by sound waves.
The Alcohol-Free Sage Mother Tincture is obtained by hydroglyceric maceration of Salvia Officinalis leaves, always at a ratio of 1:10, and is an innovative type of Mother Tinctures, which, having been obtained through the ultrasound process, makes it better from several points of view.
