      St. Francis Thyme Tincture Details

      Thyme is the rare herb that sits equally comfortably in a kitchen cupboard and a practitioner's dispensary, and its medicinal use considerably predates its culinary one.

      The active worth knowing about is thymol, the volatile compound that gives thyme its distinctive smell and much of its traditional reputation. Thymol is antiseptic enough that it appears in commercial mouthwashes, which gives some sense of why thyme has been used the way it has for centuries.

      Made from thyme (Thymus vulgaris, herb) at 250 mg Quantity Crude Equivalent per millilitre, in a base of distilled water and certified organic alcohol. 50 ml with a dropper.

      St. Francis Herb Farm has been making liquid herbal extracts in Ontario since 1988. Their tinctures use certified organic alcohol and distilled water, and are made to a stated extraction ratio so you know the strength of what you are taking.

      Who St. Francis Thyme Tincture Is For

      This suits anyone building a traditional herbal routine, and people who already cook with thyme and are curious about it at therapeutic strength. A tincture concentrates it far beyond what any amount of cooking would deliver.

      Consult a practitioner before use in pregnancy or while breastfeeding, and if symptoms worsen or persist. Thyme is in the mint family, so anyone with a known sensitivity to that family should take care.

      St. Francis Thyme Tincture Features and Benefits

      Frequently Asked Questions

      Product Information

      ➕ What is St. Francis Thyme Tincture?
      A single-herb liquid extract of thyme (Thymus vulgaris, herb) at 250 mg QCE per millilitre, in a 50 ml dropper bottle.
      ➕ How much do I take?
      Adults: as directed on the label, in a little water on an empty stomach.
      ➕ Why a tincture rather than capsules?
      Liquid extracts absorb without needing to disintegrate first, and a dropper lets you adjust the dose to the drop.
      ➕ Does it contain alcohol?
      Yes. Certified organic alcohol is the extraction solvent — it is what pulls the compounds from the plant. Taken in a little water the amount per dose is very small, but it is worth knowing if you avoid alcohol.

      Benefits of Ingredients

      ➕ What is thymol?
      The volatile compound that gives thyme its distinctive smell and much of its traditional reputation. It is antiseptic enough to appear in commercial mouthwashes.
      ➕ Is this the same thyme I cook with?
      Yes, Thymus vulgaris is common garden thyme. The tincture concentrates it well beyond what cooking delivers.
      ➕ What family is it in?
      The mint family, alongside oregano, rosemary and sage — which is why those herbs share a similar aromatic character.
      ➕ What does Quantity Crude Equivalent mean?
      Quantity Crude Equivalent tells you how much raw herb each millilitre represents. A 1:4 tincture at 250 mg QCE means every millilitre carries the equivalent of 250 mg of dried herb. Stating the ratio is what separates a properly made tincture from one that simply lists an ingredient.

      Usage and Storage

      ➕ How do I take it?
      Adults: as directed on the label, in a little water on an empty stomach.
      ➕ Are there any cautions?
      Consult a health care practitioner if symptoms worsen or persist, and before use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
      ➕ How should I store it?
      Store in a cool, dry place away from direct light with the cap closed. Keep out of reach of children.

      Thyme is the rare herb that sits equally comfortably in a kitchen cupboard and a practitioner's dispensary, and its medicinal use considerably predates its culinary one.
