Medicine-making is my passion and I am excited to share with you this Podcast series on Medicine-Making Part 2: Tinctures with Janean Strong at www.realjanean.com. On this podcast I discuss a few ways we can make a tincture from different extractors  – vinegar, glycerin and alcohol, what makes a plant active physiologically for therapeutics and how to make a very simple folk tincture and a more scientific method for preparing a tincture.

UP next on the Part 3 of the Medicine-Making Podcast series will be making infused oils, salves and if you haven’t listened to Part 1 on herbal teas, be sure to check out that podcast on my blog.
