Quassia (Quassia Amara) Tincture, Dried Bark Liquid Extract – 2x120 ml (2x4 fl oz)

What Makes This Quassia Tincture Stand Out?

This Quassia tincture is crafted from premium, ethically wild-harvested or organically grown Quassia amara bark. The formula is pure and simple: only the bark and a food-grade menstruum of purified water and ethanol. No artificial colours, preservatives, GMOs, or gluten. The 1:3 extraction ratio means a higher concentration of active plant compounds than many standard extracts, delivering a potent dose in just a few drops. Manufactured in an FDA-registered facility in the USA under strict quality control, each bottle is tested for purity and consistency.

How Is This Quassia Tincture Made?

This tincture is produced using a classic maceration method. Dried Quassia wood is carefully selected and then steeped in a mixture of purified water and ethanol for an extended period. This gentle, time-honoured process ensures that the broad range of active constituents—including alkaloids, flavonoids, and other plant compounds—are fully extracted and preserved.

The extraction ratio is 1:3 (dry plant material to menstruum), meaning 1 ml of tincture is equivalent to approximately 330 mg of dried herb. This concentrated formula delivers a potent dose of Quassia's traditional benefits in just a few drops.

What Is Quassia (Quassia Amara) Tincture?

Quassia tincture is a concentrated liquid extract made from the dried bark of Quassia amara, a small tree native to the tropical regions of Centre and South America. For centuries, Quassia has been used in traditional herbal practices, particularly as a bitter tonic to support digestive wellness and as a natural way to maintain intestinal balance. This tincture captures the plant's beneficial compounds in a convenient, easy-to-absorb liquid form.

Each batch is crafted to preserve the full spectrum of naturally occurring compounds found in Quassia bark. The result is a versatile herbal supplement that fits seamlessly into your daily wellness routine.

Why Choose a Concentrated Liquid Extract?

Liquid extracts offer several advantages over dried herb capsules or powders. The liquid form allows for faster absorption, as the body can begin utilising the nutrients almost immediately upon ingestion. Drops can be easily adjusted to find your ideal serving size, and they can be mixed into water, juice, or tea for convenient consumption.

This Quassia tincture is alcohol-based, which helps to stabilise the extract and prolong its shelf life while maintaining potency. For those who prefer to avoid alcohol, the extract can be added to hot water to evaporate some of the alcohol content before uses.

How to Uses Quassia Tincture

Shake well before uses. For adults, take 10–30 drops (approximately 0.5–1.5 ml) up to three times daily, or as directed by a health care professional. The bitter taste is characteristic of Quassia; if desired, mix the drops into a small amount of water or juice and drink immediately. Start with a lower dose and gradually increase as needed.

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children.
