🌿 Understanding Tincture Measurements

Mulungu Tincture — 1:4 @ 40% (General Educational Guide)

This section provides general information about how tincture measurements are commonly understood. It is not medical advice, nor is it a recommendation for use.


📏 What “1:4 @ 40%” Means

  • 1:4 ratio — 1 part plant material extracted into 4 parts liquid (alcohol + water).

  • 40% alcohol — the strength of the solvent used in extraction.

This describes the concentration, not how much a person should take.


💧 Understanding Millilitres & Pipettes (General Reference Only)

Most tincture bottles use a standard glass pipette. While pipettes vary slightly between manufacturers, a typical full squeeze usually draws up around:

  • 0.6–1.0 ml per full pipette

  • Many herbal suppliers approximate 1 pipette ≈ 1 ml for simplicity

  • Start with a quarter pipette and go up and down from there

This is not a dosage recommendation — it’s simply a measurement comparison to help customers understand the volume of liquid.


🔄 General Information on “Cycling” Botanicals

Some people choose to rotate or cycle botanicals to avoid using the same herb continuously. Common non‑medical approaches include:

  • Using a botanical for a short period, then taking a break

  • Alternating between different herbs rather than relying on one continuously

  • Taking rest days within a week

  • Using botanicals seasonally rather than year‑round

These are general traditions, not instructions or recommendations.
