Part of the joy of working with herbs is knowing how to best work with herbal medicinals. There are advantages to making your own herbal preparations, but there are a lot of beginner mistakes to avoid when making herbal medicinals at home.
In this episode, I am joined by my friend and fellow herbalist, Emily Han, to share the pros and cons of herbal teas vs. herbal tinctures.
We’ll also share how you can get clear, step-by-step recipes for both a tea and a tincture made with stinging nettle (Urtica dioica) so that you can make the best herbal medicinals at home!
Show Snippet: “Home medicine makers often make tinctures too weak. For example, they don’t use enough plant material or don’t finely chop the plants so the ratio of plants to alcohol is very high. We see a lot of pretty photos on social media that in reality, are very weak and poor herbal medicines.” (Podcast Timestamp: 11:03)
