Berry Blood dropper:

• 60 1ml droppers in a 2oz (60ml) bottle
• 1ml dropper = ~750 mgs Berry Blood formula extract

Berry Blood drops:

• 30 drops in a 1ml dropper
• 1 drop = ~25 mgs Berry Blood formula extract

To find a functional dose, start with a minimum dose of 10 drops to 1 dropper and work up to a functional dose.* Many benefits of tonics come from consistent and continued use over a period of time.*

Suggested Berry Blood Cycle:*

• Initial Phase = 7-60 days
• Long Term = ∞

Continuous consumption of Berry Blood will yield increasing benefits and results over the time consumed; in other words, consistent daily consumption of Berry Blood at a functional dosage over the period of suggested time will increase health and wellness benefits.*

After an initial cycle Berry Blood may be continued for on-and-off for long-term supplementation or traded-out for another tonic adaptogen superfood.*

How to Take

Berry Blood is an all-purpose easy to take adaptogen. It may be taken with food to increase absorption and assimilation of nutrients or it may be taken in-a-pinch between meals or with a snack to build the blood and stamina.*

The addition of probiotics in the diet will further activate the constituents in the extraction for easy assimilation.*

Benefits with tonics take time; taking enough consistently rewards health †

Take as desired: consume on a continuous basis to develop the natural tonic and adaptogenic benefits that build over time.* Some benefits are immediate and some results require consumption over several days and weeks to accomplish.* A good tonic cycle is 45-90 days of a tonic adaptogen which will generate lasting health changes.*

Shake gently: secure the lid and turn the bottle over back-and-forth 3-5 times to evenly distribute the tincture. Do not over-shake as the vigorous mixing of air with the extract will oxidize and damage many of the necessary constituents for required dosage and potency.

By mouth: hold the liquid under the tongue for 60-90 seconds and then swallow the rest of extract; doing so allows digestion to begin in the mouth and will take advantage of the activated multi-step extract so that many of the constituents will bypass digestion and enter the body through the mouth and throat.* Holding the extract also promotes better absorption and assimilation and elicits an immediate effect that is performance oriented*

Mix with water: squirt the drops or entire droppers into 2-4 oz. of water that is under 120*F. Water that is cool to lukewarm temperature is best to preserve the volatile and fragile constituents from being damaged and denatured which will reduce the potency of the extract.* Sip slowly to allow absorption in the mouth and throat.* This method makes it easier to become accustomed to the extract and to take larger doses of several different tinctures at once in a tonic program.*

For maximum potency: regularly consume the tincture within a period of 45 days; after 45 days of continuous consumption the extract may begin to gradually lose potency requiring a larger dosage to achieve similar benefit.* A bottle will generally last 10-30 days depending on dosage and concurrent supplementation programming.*

Q: Hi, thank you so much for replying to my question about schisandra helps sweating, fatigue and adrenals on the Schisandra product page. You responded to it and it was very informative. I'm just wondering if you think I should take the Berry Blood instead of the Schisandra? Also I find the tinctures difficult because of the taste, do you sell capsules? What is the recommended dose?
A: Yes, the Berry Blood is an even better option that contains astragalus which Chinese herbalism says affects the energy of the skin pores to contract and relax which are related to the skin breathing and the lungs. Many who take astragalus notice better breathing which is related to sweating and fatigue. So, combining astragalus with schisandra, as in Berry Blood, will promote stamina, with the adrenals, and breathing power of the lungs and skin sweat pores. The additional berries will help build up the blood and base stamina of the body. Goji helps to build healthy skin. And mulberries contain iron and powerful antioxidants and build the blood and beauty.

Capsules will not work the same as our liquid extracts. this is because we do an extensive extraction process to activate many of the constituents and make them easy to absorb. Liquids are often the best potency and the best way to take Chinese herbs or any herbs is in a water extracts. Tinctures are superior because of their full-spectrum extraction method with both alcohol and water. Because, Tonic Tinctures liquid extracts are very concentrated cups of tea put into tinctures so feel free to dilute them in a little water or juice to get used to the taste. This is perfectly fine, you'll find them easy to take with a couple ounces of water. Plus the Berry Blood tastes really good and is super easy to take! 1-3 droppers Berry Blood per meal that contains proteins.
