Here's some information about my Vit 'n Mins formula! This is probably my absolute favorite. Let's tell you a little bit more about this formula and how to best use it to your advantage. This formula is FILLED with antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals from 100% whole food sources. I love to take it in the morning as it just makes me feel energized.
Dosage: Take 10-30 drops up to 2x per day as needed to give your body the nutrition that it needs. Take in juice or tea. You CAN take under your tongue if you want. It is just easier to get down when putting in juice. I don't recommend taking this in the evening as it can give you a boost of energy. You can take it every day for best results. A question I get asked a lot is about the dosage for kids or babies. This formula would be awesome for kids to take. up to 3, you can 1/4 the dose. 3-12 years old, 1/2 the dose.
Why are tinctures a preferred method of taking herbs? Because tinctures are potent! You don’t waste your money on pills that have been in the manufacturing process for months / years and lose potency! With an alcohol base, the tinctures pull out all the medicinal benefits of the plant, and preserve them naturally for you! They don’t lose potency over time. If you forget about this formula in your cupboard and find it in 5 years, you can still take it! It will still be potent! Isn't that cool?
