The active constituents are dissolved in this extract, without a single harmful additive.
Mullein in Mullein by HawaiiPharm
A potent herb does not always have to be unusual. Plants such as nettle, chamomile and dandelion, for example, are not rare herbs, but they are well known for their properties. A less familiar, but no less potent, example is mullein. Mullein is also known as great mullein or common mullein. It is a flowering plant in the figwort family. The plant is native to Europe, Asia and the Mediterranean and is now commonly found in fields and other areas across the United States.
The leaves used to make this tincture have a soft, velvety texture. The plant is biennial. In its first year, it stays close to the ground, with large leaves growing in a dense rosette. In its second year, the plant sends up a tall spike bearing yellow flowers in most species. Mullein can grow up to 2 metres tall.
Unique phytonutrients in Mullein
But what makes mullein special? There are many different subspecies of this plant, and studies show that almost all of them contain a high concentration of polyphenols. The velvety leaves of mullein also contain a wide range of other potent constituents, such as saponins, flavonoids, phenylethanoid glycosides and iridoids (source). However, the main substances found in mullein are various types of mucilage.

We can't say which is better, as it depends on the properties you're looking for in an extract. But we can explain the difference: a 1:1 extract contains more herbal material. More Mullein has been used to make the product. This means that 1 part herb is dissolved in 1 part solvent (generally glycerine and water in our products). In a 1:3 extract, 1 part herbal material is dissolved in 3 parts solvent.
