How about this brand?

Prolly decent, I tend to like Etsy after discovering lot of family owned herbal companies be selling their products on there for half the price. But Beneficial Botanicals seems to have a little bit of a following on Facebook, maybe read some of the comments before buying, didn't see any reviews on FB

$32.00 for a 4oz ain't bad, but Dragon Botanicals pricing is horrendous.

I just bought a 4oz teasel tincture from TheRuralApothecary for $24

Then two 4 oz tinctures in Cryptolepis and Cat's Claw for $18 each from Earthashram

It's nice being able to read reviews on a site like Etsy, rather than just buying from a company you don't know too much about. Dragon Botanicals has a great reputation, but who has money paying $44 for a 4oz tincture? Maybe some do in the beginning, but after years of treatment, spending thousands of dollars, I gotta watch what I spend... lol

These shops on Etsy seem to also give more information on the extraction process as well as other things, like being organic, species of plant, etc...

There are even herbal companies using glycerite for extract process, but personally I would recommend alcohol, but know some lyme patients that are sensitive to alcohol. Alcohol tends to have a better extraction process extracting more elements from the plant.

Hi

I have been drink Chai with Teasel tea. One-three drops of Oil of Oregano extract. ( very strong at first I could only take 1 drop a day, now I am up to 2-3 drops per cup). 3-4x cups a day. With two loose leaf tea infusers. One has loose leaf chai, the other 50% teasel and 50% whole cloves.

When I am done I open the infusers and test the teasel: it is flavorless and looks like faded water logged wood, so I am sure it is being extract.

Other things I am putting in: Stevia (the chai is sugarless and not sweet) and Almond Milk. It tastes incredible, like a $5 coffee. I spent $20 for the 1lb of Chai, $27 for 1lb of Teasel root on amazon, $20 for Stevia, and $1 for almond milk. The oil of oregano I think was $20. So it was $100, but I probably have 200-300 or more, because I reuse loose leaf 3-4 times a day. I just change the two stainless steel tea balls once in the morning and get the tea pot going, and pour that into a thermos.

I am on day 3 and I feel really really good. I wanted to share this because I think this is better than tinctures.

thank you for sharing the information. Which exactly teasel tea from amazon do you like? i can’t find anything with more then 2-3 reviews
