Instructions For Use - Take 15-30 drops 2-3 times a day in a little fruit juice or water. Children: Half adult dose.

Natural lipids in the seeds give the tincture a milky appearance. Shake well before use.

INGREDIENTS: Organic Milk Thistle (Sylibum marianum) tincture 1:1 (fresh) in 25% organic ethanol.

N.B. Before taking this product, please seek medical advice if pregnant or breastfeeding.
Store in a cool dark place out of children's reach.

How to use Tinctures: Tinctures are best taken around mealtimes and mixed with water or fruit juice. Some can have a slightly bitter taste, and orange juice is particularly effective in masking this. Some natural settlement commonly occurs with certain tinctures: this is entirely harmless and can be shaken in before use. If a clearer tincture is preferred, storing in a fridge can help to hold any sediment at the bottom and reduce flecking of the tincture taken. Adding tinctures to hot fluid reduces alcohol content, but it’s worth pointing out that the amount involved when taking tinctures is small.

Is shellac vegetarian?
Yes. Shellac resin is mainly produced by the female Lac insect, who produces a resin to cocoon the eggs that she lays. When the newly hatched insects leave the cocoon, it is then harvested to produce shellac. Shellac is very like honey, in that it is a by-product made by the insect then discarded.

The above information about shellac is from The Vegetarian Society website.
