HONEY
We include honey in some formulas. Honey helps mitigate the bitterness of some herbs, and emulsifies the high amount of solids in our extracts to keep them in solution.

ACACIA VERA
Acacia Vera is a tree from West Africa where local villagers harvest the hardened sap produced by the tree. This sap, called gum acacia, has three wonderful attributes in our extracts. 1. It acts as a prebiotic: supporting the microbiome and intestinal lining of the digestive tract. 2. It helps keep the solids in suspension. 3. It helps reduce the sensation of alcohol in the extract to help it go down more smoothly.
