@Abi:
My dad has no interest in extracting phytoestrogen lol. I'm a big girl, I will continue to research on my own, tis'n't hard if you're determined. And it often helps to use another country's search engine. Also, I don't have the same problem with grain alcohol as you do. But thanks! x) You too!
@LookingForward2NBE:
I will have to do my own research on whether that is true. I cannot find the ingredients for ainterol anywhere. And our country doesn't require all ingredients to be labeled. Only way to know for sure is make it yourself, or at least order from a site you have much experience with. But if that is true of propylene glycol, it is true of the others. Propylene is the only one I have a major issue with. I am buying my own bulk herbs to blend, I do not need anything besides the powdered root, that's precisely what I'm after. I am not buying a brand, I am buying from the distributor that sells to brands. Every powered form of anything that I have come across is called an extract...though there are no other ingredients. The only reason it is not as potent as liquid is because it hasn't gone through the alchemical process heating employs. I don't feel comfortable buying products either, that's why I'm making mine...and Chiyomilk's regiment is exactly what I've modeled my supplement plan after.
One of their powders is a blend...obviously I wasn't referring to this one. Which is why I linked the pure one. What do you mean "what active component"? If what you say is true, and liquid extract is 100% PM, that's THE ONLY ACTIVE COMPONENT. I plan on simply flushing with milk thistle once a month. And I'm dissolving the herbs in water...not taking capsules...big diff.
If you're planning on making your own blend, I would strongly suggest that you buy your PM from multiple sources and blend them together 1st before adding other herbs. That way, you stand the best chance of having beneficial material in your final formula. Hedging your bets.
