New student – consume powder or tincture it?

[Rebecca ColemanStudent]

I am new to herbs and tincture making. I bought the Memory & Alertness powder. I am trying to determine if it’s best to consume it powdered or as a tincture. I am wanting to get the best value financially and along with healthful benefits. What do I need to consider in making this decision?

I personally wouldn’t tincture. The most important thing is just to get the herbs into you, tincturing it would require more resources and wouldn’t provide you with anything more than what you currently have other than a longer shelf life.

Rebecca – I know your post was quite a while back, but from a “super taster’s” viewpoint – for me it’s all about the taste of the powder.  Very few are palatable, thus I tincture anything I can (obvious exceptions being things like digestive support and nutritive that don’t perform well as a tincture).  With a tincture, I can add some juice or tea to it and just shoot it down quickly!  Hope things are working well for you on whichever direction you went with it.
