What is standardization and why are our liquid extracts not standardized?
Standardization typically means that an extract was extracted and tested for a specific amount of a given chemical component or chemical group. The problem with this method is that this one chemical may or may not be the active constituent. Research has shown that single compounds do not have the same desired effects since an individual herb can have hundreds of synergistic compounds. Rather than focusing on a single compound, our products focus on the entire botanical. Each Red Earth Herbal Drop extract contains thousands of naturally occurring compounds blended synergistically that have effects of traditional herbal medicine.
