Artichoke Tincture – HerbEra

Summary
Artichoke tincture from HerbEra is a super-concentrated, high-quality dietary supplement made from the leaves of Cynara scolymus, a well-known Mediterranean herb with a long tradition in herbal medicine. This tincture, made with a powerful 1:3 ratio of herb to solvent, preserves the plant's rich content of bioactive compounds such as cynarin, flavonoids and luteolin. Designed to support digestion, liver health, cholesterol balance and general vitality, the product offers a convenient liquid form that is easy to integrate into daily well-being. HerbEra emphasizes sustainability, clean raw materials and high quality without artificial additives.

Health effects
Artichoke tincture has several documented health effects, supported by both traditional use and modern research, and some are even recognized by EFSA. The main health effects include:

• Support for digestive health: Artichoke stimulates bile production, which aids fat digestion and can relieve bloating, nausea and dyspepsia
• Liver and gallbladder function: Cynarin and luteolin contribute to liver protection, promote detoxification and reduce strain on the liver
• Cholesterol balance: Artichokes can help lower LDL cholesterol and triglycerides and increase HDL cholesterol, which supports heart health
• Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect: The high levels of antioxidants help protect cells from oxidative stress, which can reduce inflammation
• Blood sugar and blood pressure regulation: Preliminary studies suggest that artichokes may contribute to better blood sugar control and support healthy blood pressure balance

Top health effects and surprising benefit
Main functions: The most documented effect is the artichoke's ability to support digestion and bile flow, which can reduce indigestion and promote healthy fat digestion. The other main benefit is liver protection, where artichoke can reduce liver enzyme levels and protect against oxidative damage, including in people with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
Surprising benefit: An exciting but lesser-known benefit is the artichoke's potential to support cognitive health. New research suggests that the bioactive compounds can cross the blood-brain barrier, reduce neuroinflammation and possibly improve memory and focus – a field that requires further research but has sparked interest in the nootropic field.

Traditional and modern areas of use
Artichokes have been used for centuries as a natural aid for digestion, detoxification and heart health support. Today, the extract is also used in modern health foods to:
• support lipid and cholesterol metabolism
• promote gut health and reduce constipation
• provide a natural supplement of antioxidants and micronutrients
• complement weight management through better fat metabolism and detoxification

Why concentration and 1:3 ratios are important
A super-concentrated 1:3 ratio means that for every part of dried artichoke leaf, three parts of solvent are used to extract the active substances. This provides a potent tincture that retains both large and small bioactive components, which provides a more complete therapeutic profile and enables lower doses for the desired effect.
