      St. Francis Yarrow Tincture Details

      Yarrow is among the oldest documented medicinal plants in Western herbalism — its Latin name, Achillea, refers to Achilles, who is said to have carried it to treat his soldiers' wounds.

      It has held a place in traditional Western herbal practice ever since, and remains one of the herbs most consistently found in a practitioner's dispensary. St. Francis makes theirs from the flowering tops at 1:4, in a base of certified organic alcohol, distilled water and organic vegetable glycerin.

      Made from yarrow (Achillea millefolium, flowering tops) 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 Yarrow Tincture Is For

      This suits anyone building a traditional Western herbal routine, and people already familiar with yarrow who want a well-made tincture rather than a tea. The glycerin in the base makes it slightly gentler on the palate than a straight alcohol extraction.

      Yarrow is in the daisy family, so anyone with a ragweed, chrysanthemum or daisy allergy should be cautious. Consult a practitioner if symptoms worsen or persist, or before use in pregnancy.

      St. Francis Yarrow Tincture Features and Benefits

      • Single-Herb Tincture — Yarrow (Achillea millefolium) alone, with no blend to dilute it.
      • Stated Extraction Ratio — 250 mg Quantity Crude Equivalent per millilitre, so you know the strength.
      • Certified Organic Alcohol — The extraction base is organic, not industrial ethanol.
      • Liquid Absorbs Faster Than Capsules — Tinctures do not need to disintegrate before absorption can begin.
      • Dropper Dosing — Adjustable to the drop, which capsules cannot match.
      • Made in Ontario Since 1988 — St. Francis Herb Farm has been making liquid extracts in Canada for over thirty years.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      Product Information

      ➕ What is St. Francis Yarrow Tincture?
      A single-herb liquid extract of yarrow (Achillea millefolium, flowering tops) at 250 mg QCE per millilitre, in a 50 ml dropper bottle.
      ➕ How much do I take?
      Adults: 1.6 ml (48 drops) 3 times daily 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

      ➕ Why is it called Achillea?
      After Achilles, who according to legend carried yarrow to treat his soldiers' wounds. It is among the oldest documented medicinal plants in Western herbalism.
      ➕ What are flowering tops?
      The upper part of the plant including the flowers, harvested at bloom, which is the part traditionally used.
      ➕ Why is glycerin in the base?
      Vegetable glycerin softens the harshness of a straight alcohol extraction, making the tincture slightly easier to take.
      ➕ 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: 1.6 ml (48 drops) 3 times daily in a little water on an empty stomach.
      ➕ Are there any cautions?
      Consult a health care practitioner if symptoms worsen or persist. Yarrow belongs to the daisy family — use caution if you are allergic to ragweed, chrysanthemums or related plants. Consult a health care practitioner 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.
