Why some people prefer the tincture

The tincture is the original Lifetones format. Herbal practitioners have long used liquid extracts, and many customers like that there is no capsule to swallow. Each bottle has 40 servings, compared with 30 in a bottle of capsules.

Why some people prefer the capsules

The capsules exist because some customers did not enjoy the taste of the tincture. They have the same herbs, no taste and no alcohol, and they are easy to take on the go.

Tips for the tincture taste

  • Mix it into a cool drink you like, such as juice or iced tea.
  • Use a smaller glass so you can finish it quickly.
  • Keep it cool. Store the bottle below 86°F, out of direct sunlight.

Common questions

Is the tincture stronger than the capsules?

Both contain the same 7 herbs. The formats are different, so the serving sizes are different too. Choose the one you will take every day.

Does the tincture contain alcohol?

Yes. The tincture is made with a 50% alcohol and water extract. If you avoid alcohol, choose the capsules.

Can I put the tincture in hot tea or coffee?

We recommend cool or room temperature drinks, such as water, juice or iced tea.
