BERGAMOT ELIXIR
Bergamot has some amazing medicinal benefits! It is a highly fragrant flower with high amounts of volatile oils in the plant.
Bergamot (monarda fistulosa) is a member of the mint family. That alone tells us that it can help relieve gassiness, and upset stomachs, and can help to soothe the body overall.
Bergamot has a high thymol content, which is a strong antiseptic also found in the herb Thyme. It can help remedy respiratory tract infections, gas, diarrhea, nausea, whooping cough, cold and flu symptoms, fevers, and wounds.
As an antifungal, bergamot can be used to gently protect the body's microbiome while fighting off fungal infections such as ringworm, athlete's foot, and more. It can be used as a mouth wash to help with toothaches, mouth sores, canker sores, and sore throats. It is a fragrant, potent flower that can be a useful addition to your medicine cabinet. This elixir is paired with raw honey which only adds to the medicinal benefits.
A NOTE ABOUT OUR STANDARDS — All of our tinctures and elixirs (except for the mushroom elixirs) are made with 100-proof alcohol (grain alcohol and local spring water) and fresh plant material. For elixirs, they are made with 100-proof alcohol, raw honey, and fresh plant material.
We source fresh plants from California, from farmers who practice organic farming or “beyond organic” farming practices. All herbs are made into extracts within 24 hours of being picked, so they are extra potent!
We use fresh plants to preserve both water- and alcohol-soluble constituents that are lost when the plant is dried. Fresh plants make for a more potent extract and preserve the life force of the plant in the season it was meant to produce in.
Tincture = alcohol + herb
Elixir = alcohol + raw honey + herb
