How does goat's rue extract differ from ordinary herbal powder or tea made from this plant? — VISTERRA Galega Extract Capsules N180

Goat's rue was historically used in the form of decoctions and infusions – that is, the dried herb was brewed. A powder made from the plant is simply ground raw material, in which the concentration of active compounds depends on the quality of the particular batch and on how it was stored.

An extract is obtained differently: the target substances are extracted from the plant raw material with a solvent (most often water or alcohol), and the resulting extract is then concentrated. As a result, one capsule contains considerably more active compounds than an equivalent amount of powder. This makes dosing more predictable.

The capsule form adds one more practical advantage: there is no need to brew, measure out or wait. A capsule can be taken anywhere, without worrying about taste or smell. For those who include several herbal supplements in their daily diet, this considerably simplifies following the chosen scheme.

The 180 capsules in the pack are meant for a long course – this is convenient if you plan regular intake without frequent reorders.
