Re: sensiblehealth coptis and chinese bitters

THis is from the Sensible Health homepage:

" I decided to use a combination of Chinese Gentian and Bupleurum prepared in an alcoholic tincture. I reasoned that alcohol is a better carrier than water for the herbs through the liver because the liver detoxifies water-insoluble toxins for which alcohol is a better solvent."

I guess that the alcohol make it more effective.. Tweet
