WHAT ARE HERBAL EXTRACTS?
Herbal extracts are the “essence” of bulk herbs. Through a long and sophisticated process, the active components in bulk herbs are removed and condensed into herbal extracts. As finished products, herbal extracts are at a 5:1 concentration ratio, which means 5 pounds of raw herbs yields 1 pound of concentrate.
Herbal extracts are the concentrated form of herbs. According to the needs of a patient, herbs are processed with different other types and turned into a powder, liquid or paste form. The extracts are actually far more effective as they are highly concentrated, potent than the actual herbs of the same quantity. It is just like storing all the essence and powerful qualities of herbs in a compressed form.
