Venom and Sting

[Kaye ReidStudent]

I just received my Venom and Sting formula. I want to make tincture out of it but wasn’t sure that it is as effective as the dry herb. Will the spray tincture work as well as the wet herb material for the poultice and is the tincture as good oral as taking powder in this instance?

Tinctures work faster, and are easier to administer to someone in an emergency like a potentially serious venomous bite.  So it is good to have both, tincture, and powder on hand, especially when out hiking or camping where those types of critters live.

I agree t9 keep both.  I envision using powder as poultice topically. You can use the tincture to wet the powder and also orally use the tincture.

Yes that is why I was wondering if you can use the tincture sprayed as the poultice instead of powder. It would be much easier to use if it works as well. Thank you

Yep, Doc has said he doesn’t really use poultices as much as he did previously.  He has found spritzing on a tincture topically to be tidier and every bit as effective.

The sprayed on tincture would work as well or better than the powder poultice.

Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.
