Mineral salts
Mineral salts are essential inorganic compounds that play vital roles in maintaining key bodily functions, including bone health, muscle and nerve function, fluid balance, and enzyme activity. Important mineral salts include calcium, sodium, potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, iron, zinc, iodine, chloride, and sulfur — each contributing to overall wellness and cellular balance.
In the traditional art of spagyric tincture-making, mineral salts are an important element in capturing the full essence of the plant. After the active botanical compounds are extracted using alcohol, the remaining plant material is carefully incinerated to produce mineral-rich ashes. These purified mineral salts are then reintroduced into the tincture, helping to restore the plant’s natural physical and energetic components.
This thoughtful method creates a tincture that honors the plant’s complete profile, offering a more holistic and balanced approach to natural wellness support.
