Gymnema
Recent studies have provenGymnema sylvestreto have the ability to help control blood sugar levels in the body. Gymnema contains important organic acids, known as gymnemic acids, they work to suppress the ability to taste sweetness by temporarily blocking the tastebuds. Similarly, in the intestine the molecules in the gymnemic acid fill the receptor locations in the absorptive external layers of the intestine, thereby preventing the intestine from absorbing the sugar molecules.
Gymnema sylvestre can play a role in treating conditions caused by excessive sugar intakes. Conditions like diabetes, obesity, hyperglycemia, anemia and osteoporosis can also be helped by using Gymnema sylvestre.
Gymnema may also be recommended foras a mild laxative, diuretic, antimalarial, and digestive stimulant. It is useful in the treatment of coughs, as well as being an antidote to snakebites.
Benefits of Tinctures
Capsules, soft gels and tablets are very popular. Tinctures, however, have many advantages over these modes of delivery. The bio-availability of tinctures is very high in comparison, because unlike pills tinctures don't rely on digestion to break them down. Tinctures are readily absorbed by the body, beginning their work in the bloodstream almost as soon as they enter the mouth. Which is a very significant benefit. Note also that:
Why are tinctures alcohol-based?
Not only is the alcohol in St. Francis tinctures indispensable for extracting the active ingredients of an herb, it is also needed to stabilize and preserve them. As well as limiting microbial activity, alcohol has the ability to inhibit enzymatic or hydrolytic reactions in plant extracts.
Alcohol plays the role of a carrier substance conveying active ingredients within the body. Beyond that, it has been scientifically proven that small amounts of alcohol actually enhance the immune system and its defenses.
The amount of alcohol taken in an average dose of tincture, you'll be surprised to learn, is about the same as what you'd find in an overly ripe banana!

- Tinctures can be stored for long periods of time, even years, without loss of effectiveness
- Tinctures can be taken relatively accurately because they are administered in drops
