HERBAL TINCTURE - NO ALCOHOL - Make Your Own Homemade Glycerin Tincture

[@tessamoland797]

Finally! I found a video that doesnt include using alcohol!I dont want to buy or drink vodka. This instructional video is definitely something I can get on board with. Thank you!!!!!

[@lindawiedemann5014]

You can add hot water to an alcohol tincture dose & let it sit till the alcohol evaporates, if that helps anyone. It might not all evaporate, but at least most will. But now glycerine is on my list!

[@toni8937]

Thank you for sharing! I was actually thinking about that idea too. I do wonder if that reduces the healing properties of the herbs though.

[@kristinhenson8995]

Thank you! I have a non alcoholic liver disease, and this is such a blessing to know!

[@kikiD32]

Unfortunately, I can't even have alcohol in my house, even just a little bit to prepare a tincture. I am a recovering alcoholic and it's too much of a trigger. Glycerin or apple cider vinegar will be my go-to for extracts.

[@Thienthibichlien]

I air dries my herbs, then grind them in the coffee grinder, to a fine powder, then add 1/8 -1/4 tsp into my drink, smoothies, food, sauce, etc.. mint powder is my favourite . Dried stems can be used for tea

[@brookiey]

I love your voice. It's calming. Very relaxing to watch your videos at night. Informative and stress free

[@caylyncarrillo4124]

I thought the same thing! ❤️🤗

[@DrJeffreyMSeder]

Thank you for the information. I'm a naturopathic physician and took a tincture making class in med school a while back. I actually want to make my own tinctures and provide for myself and my patients. I think glycerin is better than alcohol and most commercial tinctures are done with alcohol.

[@mybabies2725]

you do know that glycerin is basically alcohol from what i have been told for years

[@WordAboveAll]

But much easier on the system @@mybabies2725

[@arlahunt4240]

I’m glad to see you are not using alcohol. I think alcohol is best for barks because of the resins but other plants, are good for ACV or glycerin.

[@Micah7-8]

Well this just opened my eyes to so much more! THANK YOU! Now I need to look into lore of this. I absolutely love this.

[@spicencens7725]

Excellent instruction!!! I started an herb and veg garden this past spring, and have had great success with several herbs including skullcap. Besides drying for tea, I made an alcohol tincture. Was that ever nasty! I am definitely trying the glycerite, especially because I have a gallon of glycerin already in the pantry!

[@CleanFoodLiving]

Great!

[@plantsoverpills1643]

I love your videos, I have watched over half of them and find your nutritional information to be spot on. I’m trying to get better at fermentation and you are one of my go to guides. I would really like to know what your first name is. Even if you make one up that would be better than just being the unknown woman who wears headbands and talks about healthy food and healthy living.

I enjoy watching your channel you are very smart, and well educated, I learn whole lot from you. I was wondering if you could give me some receipts for insomnia, I would love to try natural things instead of medication, I wake up middle of the night and cannot sleep, greatly will be appreciate for your advice or receipts

[@CleanFoodLiving]

Hi Levon, unfortunately I don't have any insomnia remedies 😒 Bless you!

[@lifelovelettuce]

Thank you for sharing the method for making non-alcohol tinctures. I'm a firm believer in getting away from alcohol wherever you can. I'm blessed to have fresh herbs for most of the year where I live (sub-tropical climate in Auckland, New Zealand) so preserving herbs isn't such an issue--I can drink fresh herbal teas daily. The sweetness also makes it so much easier to get the 'good stuff' into children 😄

[@alaaiyad2499]

Yes I need this method because in islam is forbidden to drink alcoholic

[@rebeccaspratling2865]

​@@alaaiyad2499can Muslims have kombucha or fermented foods like Kimchi or Sauerkrout?

Excellent video thanks for sharing. Never heard of it.!!!

[@alaaiyad2499]

Some videos I found 3 parts of water and one of glycerin is that good ???

[@-johnny-deep-]

What’s the advantage of using glycerine instead of just water? Is it a better universal solvent? Also, wouldn’t it be more effective to chop up fresh herbs first to release more plant compounds?

[@CleanFoodLiving]

Things will rot within a week in just water. Glycerin preserves, no rotting. If you want to chop it up, go for it. It's neither right or wrong to chop or not chop.🙂

[@-johnny-deep-]

@@CleanFoodLiving Thanks. Good to know. I'll have to buy some glycerin and give it a try. Any idea how the potency of the result compares between a glycerite tincture that took 3 months to infuse compared to a simple tea made with boiling water steeped for 10 minutes? Just curious.

[@SusanJAvery]

Hello. I would like to make a non-alcoholic tincture of sweet wormwood. The alkaloid tujon dissolves in alcohol. But not in water. Can you tell me, if you know, if glycerin is useful for sweet wormwood tinctures, or should be used alcohol for an effective tincture? Thank you for your reply.

[@richardbarga4310]

Have you tried using vegetable glycerin with bee propolis? Everything I read seems to say 100 proof or higher alcohol.

[@patriciapaul5233]

Thank you for the great information 😊. Quick question, can I add a little alcohol to the glycerin tincture to extend shelf life and at what point do I add it?. Thanks 🙏🏽

[@lavellnutrition]

Do you know what Glycerin is derived from?

Been wanting to make a frankincense tincture from resin . ( never made a tincture before). Do you think you could do a similar video in non alcohol frankincense resin / non alcohol myrrh resin, tinctures recipes/ results in a video). Ive read its very good for our pineal gland & can be put on outside skin of Forehead where our pineal gland is to absorb/ all skin good in clarifying pulling out ( more specifically im not sure ...? ) but learning properties of creation in chemistry or pulled out , happen in vibration of properties in action later on to notice in awareness.

[@vasihris5956]

I have two questions: What are the requirements for glycerine to be considered food grade? What kind of soap are you referring to when you mention "hot soapy water"?

[@CleanFoodLiving]

1. The glycerin container will say "food grade" if it is and will say nothing regarding "food grade" if it is not. 2. Any kind of dish soap will be fine. 😊

[@alkaalka6723]

I believe that there are some constituents in herbs that cannot be extracted with glycerine alone. Is it correct?

[@johnjoseph9929]

What kind of glycerine is this. Is it easily available ?

[@ThinkXar]

hi. thank you for sharing. i loVe tea smell especially chamomile so i wanted to ask you. would you get the scent /smell of the tea using this method? how strong the scent/smell would be? and would you recomment some niCe smell/scent plant base tea from your experience with glycerin extract. thanks

Hi. Thank you for this video. I'm thinking about ordering the glycerin you're using in this video, but some of the reviews on Amazon aren't too good. What is your opinion on it? Did it leak during shipping? Does it taste good? I like the price and want to get a gallon, but don't want to waste my money or time if it's not a quality product. Thanks again! I'm new to using plant medicine.

[@CleanFoodLiving]

Mine did not leak, it has a sweet taste (zero glucose) and I've been happy with it. That's been my experience 👍

[@kikiD32]

@CleanFoodLiving ok thanks so much!

[@MISSROSE7744]

For the dry herb gylcerite can i omit the water for acv? To potentially get a stronger extract?

[@CleanFoodLiving]

Not recommended... but you can try it for yourself. It won't cause harm, I just don't think it will be good.

[@rosstituteuk]

Do the herbs need to be washed / disinfected in some way, prior to making a tincture with glycerin? Or does the glycerin have it's own antibacterial properties, to stop moulds etc from growing ?

[@CleanFoodLiving]

No they dont and yes the glycerin does. Ive never had a case of mold👍😃

[@rosstituteuk]

@@CleanFoodLiving thank you very much for your reply. Out of interest, I have been buying a dandelion root glycerin tincture recently, and it's very dark brown, almost black in colour.. any idea how or why it's so dark? do they just leave it for a very long time? I woud like to try and replicate it as closely as possible, at least in terms of strength and effectiveness... Thanks again for your tips and advice

When digested, alcohol converts into simple carbohydrates (i.e. sugar). That why higher proof (ABV) has more calories. Ounce for ounce, not sure which had more calories, alcohol vs. glycerin. But, when I’m looking for a late night snack, instead of chips and cookies, I go for 2 ounces of bourbon.
