Male Fertility Herbal Tincture

Most marry with the intent to have children. Sadly, some men are incapable of getting a woman pregnant. Reasons vary. As a result, infertile men bear shame, embarrassment, and a sense of emasculation that can cripple their intimate relationships. Approximately 15% of couples attempting their first pregnancy meet with failure, meaning that they have been unable to achieve a pregnancy after one year of unprotected intercourse.  While we normally think of infertility as affecting women, the fact is many men suffer from Male Infertility. In fact, men are the responsible parties in about 50% of infertile couples. Male infertility can result due to insufficient sperm count, unhealthy sperm, or seminal leakage. Regardless of the cause, sometimes the most effective methods of treating a condition like Male Infertility are also the most overlooked.
 
This all-natural herbal tincture is among the most popular of all. The Chinese fruit, Lycium, is used to restore the fertile properties of semen. It is also used to clear vision, strengthen the kidneys, and nourish the liver. It can also be a very rich source of vitamins and minerals, especially vitamins A, C and E, flavanoids and other bio-active compounds.
 
Other herbs with multiple benefits in this remedy include Cuscuta, which is known to promote a continual unflagging erection; Shizandra a mind enhancer, beauty herb, and sex tonic that increases the production of semen; and Rehmannia, known to promote longevity, it is a valuable and traditional tonic. And – since practice makes perfect – Horny Goat Weed is a must. It is a known aphrodisiac that strengthens nerves, nourishes the blood, and promotes rock hard erections. The frequency of intercourse you’ll partake in will greatly increase the odds of conceiving!

One of the oldest medicinal practices is the formulation of a “tincture”, an extraction of active compounds from plant material using alcohol as solvent.  The active ingredients in herbs are best and most easily extracted by alcohol. A primary purpose of the extraction is to isolate and secure various anti-oxidant compounds known as “flavonoids” that are beneficial to human health. Once prepared, it is best to store your tincture in a airtight dark glass container and keep it at - or below - room temperature
 

Preparation

1. Pour the herbal blend into the jar, up to between a quarter to half of its capacity (20 oz)
2. Add Vodka, Rum or Brandy just above the level of herbs.
3. Seal the jar (tightly, to prevent leakage or evaporation).
4. Store the jar away in a dry and dark area.
5. Add more alcohol over the next few days, as the dried herbs soak and expand.
6. Store the jar up to two weeks to three months.

Ready to Drink

1. Strain the tincture through a sieve with cheesecloth into another clean jar or storage container.
2. Extract the remaining tincture by squeezing the saturated herbs and transfer it into a dropper bottle. Refrigerate it.
3. Drink two teaspoons right after lunch and dinner. If you can’t stand the taste, dilute it with water, juice, or tea.

Discussion&Tips

Most herbal tinctures are prepared using alcohol as a solvent. If you can’t consume alcohol use Apple Cider Vinegar or Wine Vinegar instead. It is recommended to store them in the refrigerator, but be sure to label the jars clearly in order to prevent other family members from inadvertently drinking your tincture. Avoid using plastic containers at all costs. The ethanol in the tincture may solubilize some of the free vinyl substances in the plastic and some PBA might leak out. Never use stainless steel containers for long-term storage.
 
If the tiny fragments of residue passing through the cheesecloth concern you, filter them twice through a paper coffee filter.
