Guest guest Posted October 27, 2003 Report Share Posted October 27, 2003 Sun, 26 Oct 2003 13:50:39 -0800 < alcohol what would be the best alcohol to use to extract ren shen? does organic alcohol matter when using distilled spirits for extraction? According to Michael Moore's literature 1:5 @ 70% is the proper menstruum. I have made it at slightly less alcohol 50-60% and it is fine. If your going to make a formula in one tincture you have to look at the whole profile of medicinals and come up with what you think will work best. The only reason I can see to use organic alcohol is to support the organic industry. A noble cause, no doubt. However, it matters little or none as to the clinical viability of your product. Good luck, thomas Chinese Herbology and Acupuncture acupuncture and herbal information " Knowing nothing, you will be aware of everything.
