| Promotes Relaxation & Calming Effects | Valerian is well-known for its calming and sedative properties, which help reduce anxiety and restlessness. It prepares the body for a restful night's sleep, making it especially beneficial for Lyme patients who often struggle with sleep disturbances and tension. |
| Supports Deep, Restorative Sleep | Passionflower helps to increase GABA levels in the brain, promoting a calming effect. This herb supports deeper, more restorative sleep, reducing the frequency of wakefulness and improving sleep quality, which is often compromised in Lyme disease. |
| Reduces Stress & Nervous Tension | California Poppy works as a gentle sedative, reducing nervous tension and promoting a peaceful state of mind. Its calming effects can help manage the anxiety and stress that frequently accompany Lyme disease, making it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep. |
| Natural Sleep Aid With Sedative Effects | Hops are known for their sedative properties, helping to reduce restlessness and induce sleep. This herb helps those with Lyme disease who find it difficult to unwind due to physical discomfort or mental stress. |
| Supports Nervous System Health | The combination of Valerian, Passionflower, and California Poppy provides support for the nervous system, reducing the overactive responses often triggered by Lyme disease. These herbs offer a natural alternative to pharmaceutical sleep aids, supporting the body’s ability to relax without side effects. |
| Enhances Sleep Quality | By addressing various stages of the sleep cycle, these herbs work synergistically to improve both the quality and duration of sleep. Lyme patients benefit from more restful nights, helping them wake feeling more refreshed and ready to heal. |
| Helps With Sleep Onset | Valerian and Passionflower are effective in reducing the time it takes to fall asleep, aiding in sleep onset. This is particularly useful for Lyme patients who struggle to transition from wakefulness to sleep due to discomfort or anxiety. |
| Reduces Nighttime Restlessness | California Poppy and Hops help to alleviate nighttime restlessness, a common issue for Lyme sufferers. These herbs promote a peaceful night’s sleep by calming both the mind and body, reducing frequent wake-ups throughout the night. |

FAQ
What makes Apex Botanical tinctures different from other herbal tinctures?
Our tinctures stand out due to the premium quality of herbs we use. Crafted at a concentration of 1:4, our herbal tinctures prioritize both potency and effectiveness.
Unlike many other companies that employ a uniform alcohol percentage across all products, our approach is nuanced. We tailor the alcohol concentration for each herb based on the distinct medicinal properties of the plant.
This strategy reflects our commitment to a sophisticated extraction of medicinal compounds, effectively setting Apex Botanicals apart in the realm of herbal tinctures.
How should I consume my herbal tincture?
Herbal tinctures are generally taken on an empty stomach (1 hour before and after meals). They can be taken directly or added to 1oz of water if the taste is hard to swallow.
Dosing of herbal tinctures will generally vary from 1 drop once per day up to 1 tsp 3 times per day. When taking anti-microbial herbal tinctures, starting at a lower dose and increasing slowly is the general rule of thumb.
*Be sure to speak with your primary care provider to determine the correct dose for your needs.
How long should I take my herbal tincture for?
The length of time a tincture should be taken will vary considerably based on your state of health, the infection / symptom you’re trying to treat and other medications or treatments you are concurrently taking.
Most people with chronic tick-borne infections take an herbal tincture for between 3 months and 2 years.
As a general rule, its recommended to take an herbal tincture for at least 1 month to see the best results.
Are herbal tinctures safe for children?
Generally speaking, it is safe for children to consume herbal tinctures, but dosing should be adjusted. Refrence 'Clarks Rule' for further information.
*Always consult your primary care provider before starting a new protocol or giving your child herbal tinctures.
Are herbal tinctures safe during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?
Some herbs are strictly contraindicated in pregnancy and should be avoided. We do our best to indicate this on the product information page but are not held liable for any errors or omissions.
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding consult your primary care provider before consuming any herbal tinctures.
Will my herbal tincture interact with medications or supplements?
Interactions of herbal tinctures with medications or supplements do exist. We strongly recommended consulting with your primary care provider or pharmacist before taking any herbal tinctures if you are concerned about potential contraindications.
What does a 1:4 ratio imply and how does it compare to 1:2 or 1:5+?
The ratio describes the concentration of a tincture. We use a 1:4 ratio, meaning 1 part dried herb (in grams) to 4 parts menstruum (the combined alcohol and herb).
A ratio of 1:5 has more liquid to the same amount of herb and is therefore more diluted.
A ratio of 1:10 or higher is very diluted and requires very high daily doses and is not recommended.
Tinctures made at 1:2 are often too concentrated for Lyme patients and commonly induce Herx reactions that can be very intense.
Most tinctures on the market are made at 1:5. We’ve chosen to use 1:4 to ensure greater potency while still being very safe and tolerable.
Does higher alcohol content mean an herbal tincture is more or less potent?
Using the correct alcohol percentage to extract the specific medicinal constituents of that herb is of highest importance when making a tincture. Using more or less alcohol essentially reflects the chemical nature of the compounds that we want to extract into the liquid portion.
A tincture made at 40% versus one made at 80% is not twice at strong. It simply implies that for the first herb, 40% alcohol will optimally extract the medicinal qualities. For the second herb, 80% is the concentration for optimal extraction.
We’ve gone to great lengths to ensure that our tinctures are made using the correct concentrations.
*Please note that not all herbal tinctures on the market are made with the appropriate alcohol concentration so use our site as a reference or conduct your own research to make sure you’re purchasing the best formulated tincture possible.
