Red Sage Root Alcohol-Free Tincture (1:4)

Red Sage Root (Salvia miltiorrhiza, Dan Shen) tincture – made from the roots

What is Red Sage Root (Salvia miltiorrhiza)?

With its orchid-like purple flowers and peppermint-like leaves, Red Sage Root is truly a sight to behold. Yet the real treasure of this traditional medicinal plant from the mint family (Lamiaceae) lies hidden underground. Deep in the soil rests the thick, deep-red root of Salvia miltiorrhiza, which holds significant importance in its native regions of China and Japan.

This perennial herb prefers riverbanks and forested areas and can reach up to 80 cm in height under optimal conditions.

For the production of our tincture, we adhere to the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and use only the deep-red roots of Red Sage. These are harvested under strict quality standards, carefully dried, and finely milled before being gently processed into glycerin tincture.

One of the most important medicinal plants in TCM

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, Red Sage Root holds a special place and is even regarded by many Eastern doctors and therapists as a universal remedy. This reputation stems from its extensive applications in TCM and its long-standing tradition. Classified as slightly cooling and bitter, Red Sage Root is associated with the heart and liver meridians. It is primarily used to support the heart, liver, metabolism, and circulation. In Chinese folk medicine, it is also applied for joint pain, menstrual issues, coughs, and colds. Herbalist Stephen Harrod Buhner attributes antioxidant and antibacterial properties to Red Sage and recommends its use in Lyme disease and related co-infections.

Red Sage Root contains a wide range of valuable compounds, including triterpenes, diterpenes (tanshinones and isotanshinones), flavonoids, phenylpropanoids, tannins, steroids, lignans, and quinones.
