Teasel tincture
Dipsacus Fullonum
Description
Product description Teasel tincture
The Latin name is Dipsacus Fullonum. Also known by the English name: Teasel. Xu Duan is the name of the root extract in Chinese Medicine. This means: repair what is broken.
Important for the effectiveness of Teasel tincture is that it is made from fresh roots. This is the case with the Teasel tincture in our webshop.
The fresh root contains a lot of power. The root owes this to the bioactive substances bitter substances, iridoids and saponins.
The Teasel is organically grown in the Netherlands and the tincture is prepared with organic alcohol.
Can be used as a supportive, natural product alongside other therapies.
You will also find in our webshop teasel root juice.
Teasel Juice vs Teasel Tincture
- Long-term vs. short-term effects: The root tincture often provides a slower, more structural support. The carrot juice mixture has a more immediate, stimulating effect, and is lighter and gentler.
- Phytochemical composition: Tinctures often contain more fat- and alcohol-soluble components. Carrot juice is richer in water-soluble substances.
- Shelf life: A tincture based on macerate in alcohol has a long shelf life. Carrot juice, even with alcohol, has a somewhat shorter shelf life.
- Energetic effect: In some traditional systems, such as anthroposophy or Ayurvedic phytotherapy, carrot juice is considered "living", which makes it beneficial for acute support.
In addition to the powerful root, Teasel has a striking appearance. The long stem, branches, leaves and egg-shaped flowers all contain thorns. The flower also contains many small tubular flowers that bloom in July/August. This bloom is remarkable: you see one or two pink rings that walk over the egg-shaped flower head.
