關於草藥提取物

Herbal extract is a liquid solution of herbs and alcohol.草藥提取物是草藥和酒精的液體溶液。 The dried or fresh herbs are combined with alcohol, then the solid matter is removed leaving only the oils of the herbs mixed with the alcohol.將乾燥或新鮮的藥草與酒精混合，然後除去固體物質，僅將藥草的油與酒精混合。 This process is called extraction, hence the name, herbal extract.此過程稱為提取物，因此得名草藥提取物。 For example an extract made from peppermint and alcohol would be called "peppermint extract."Most commercially sold extracts have a herb to alcohol ratio printed on the label.例如，由薄荷和酒精製成的提取物將被稱為“胡椒薄荷提取物”。大多數商業出售的提取物在標籤上印有草藥與酒精的比例。 When dry herbs were used to make the extract the ratio is commonly 1 part dried plant to 4 parts liquid, (alcohol and water).當使用乾草藥製成提取物時，該比例通常為1份乾燥植物與1份液體（酒精和水）的比例。 When fresh herbs are used the most common ratio is 1:4.使用新鮮藥草時，最常見的比例是4：XNUMX。 This does not indicate the amount of that herb in the bottle, rather the ratio used in making the extract.這並不表示瓶中該草藥的量，而是表示提取物中所用的比例。 Example: Dry herb strength: XNUMX:XNUMX means that the mixture used to produce the extract was XNUMX parts liquid, (alcohol and water) and one part dried plant.示例：乾燥草藥強度：XNUMX：XNUMX表示用於生產提取物的混合物是XNUMX份液體（酒精和水）和XNUMX份乾燥植物。 This is not the same as an ingredients list which is also present on most commercial extracts.這與大多數商業提取物中也存在的成分錶不同。
草藥提取物作為膳食補充劑和替代藥物出售，通常用於烘烤和其他烹飪中的調味，就像香草精一樣。
草藥提取物和替代醫學從業人員通常將草藥提取物稱為tin劑。
