Heart Tonic

Description

Why Tonics?

Liquid herbal extracts offer a potent, easily absorbed method to ingest herbs for almost immediate effect.

Quality 

Carefully handcrafted by time-honored methods. Each organic herb is extracted over an eight week period in pure grain alcohol and distilled water, creating potent tinctures.

Tinctures will extract more of the medicinal compounds from herbs than dried herbs, teas or capsules. The alcohol preserves them for an average shelf life of 5 years.

I first designed this heart tonic for my husband’s high blood pressure. In mind too, was the history of heart trouble evident in his family. We have been impressed with how it has regulated his blood pressure. It has also seemed to help with circulation and endurance with long work days of physically moving wood materials and standing on concrete all day.
