For the plant’s wider background, read our Valerian Root Herbal Information.

3. The botanical behind the tincture

Our herb guide discusses valerenic acid, isovaleric acid, iridoids and flavonoids in Valerian Root. Information about plant chemistry is not a promise about this product’s effects.

No amount of any individual constituent is stated for this tincture. Its 1:2 preparation ratio is not a measurement of those constituents or a statement of standardised constituent content. Research on other preparations should not be assumed to apply to this finished tincture.

4. Why valerian root?

Root is the selected plant material for this preparation, rather than leaves or flowers. Identifying the plant part clarifies what is extracted; it does not imply therapeutic superiority. Different plant parts should not be treated as interchangeable product descriptions.

5. A single-herb tincture

Valerian is the only herbal ingredient, rather than a blend of herbs. Alcohol and water form the extraction liquid.

Ingredients:

  • Organic valerian root
  • Organic gluten-free alcohol
  • Filtered spring water

6. Understanding the 1:2 ratio

Home Herbs Organic Valerian Root Tincture is prepared at a 1:2 ratio, as are all Home Herbs tinctures. This describes one part herbal starting material in relation to two parts extraction liquid, according to the production method.

This ratio describes preparation, not dosage or alcohol percentage. It does not prove that a tincture is stronger, better or more effective than one prepared at another ratio.
