FAQ
Alcohol-Free Wild Teasel Extract is a glycerite made from dried wild teasel roots (Dipsacus fullonum, radix), prepared using modern ultrasound-assisted extraction technology. Ultrasound helps release naturally occurring plant compounds from the roots, allowing for more efficient extraction.
We use organic food-grade vegetable glycerine and water to prepare an extraction solvent containing approximately 60% glycerine. The extraction takes place in an ultrasonic bath at a controlled temperature, followed by an additional maceration period. This process produces an alcohol-free herbal extract with a characteristic bittersweet taste.
Our wild teasel is grown organically in Slovenia, where the plants develop in harmony with natural rhythms. The roots are carefully dug by hand, mainly in autumn or early spring, when the plant directs its energy into its underground parts. After harvesting, the roots are thoroughly cleaned, cut and gently dried.

Wild teasel (Dipsacus fullonum)
Wild teasel is a tall, strong biennial plant with distinctive prickly stems and cylindrical flower heads. In nature, it is often found along roadsides, meadows and on uncultivated land, where its upright form easily catches the eye.
It belongs to the teasel family (Dipsacaceae), although in more recent botanical classifications it is often included within the broader honeysuckle family (Caprifoliaceae).
In herbal preparations, the root of wild teasel (Dipsacus fullonum, radix) is most commonly used. The root is harvested at a time when the plant directs its strength and reserves into its underground parts.
Wild teasel is also fascinating because of its distinctive appearance. Its dried flower heads were once used for combing and processing wool, which is also reflected in its name. In this way, the plant was closely connected with everyday life – with the work of human hands, traditional crafts and the slow rhythm of the countryside.
In herbal tradition, wild teasel is valued as a plant for longer, more focused periods of use. It is often chosen by people looking for deeper herbal support and by those who appreciate preparations made from roots, which carry a particular sense of earthiness, persistence and inner strength.
Traditionally, wild teasel has been used to support the body during periods when greater balance, flexibility and a sense of inner stability are desired. Because of its strong, earthy nature, many people experience it as a plant of patience, gradual progress and perseverance.

Is alcohol-free wild teasel extract as effective as the alcoholic tincture?
Both the alcoholic tincture and the alcohol-free glycerine extract are made from the same fresh plant, but they differ in the solvent used. Alcohol is highly effective at extracting a broad spectrum of naturally occurring plant constituents, which is why alcoholic tinctures have traditionally been the most widely used form of herbal extracts.
The alcohol-free extract made with vegetable glycerine contains a somewhat different range of extracted constituents. Its advantages are its pleasant taste and the absence of alcohol. It is often chosen for children and by anyone who prefers to avoid alcohol.
If you do not need to avoid alcohol, the alcoholic tincture is generally the more concentrated option. The alcohol-free extract offers a gentler alternative and makes it possible to include wild teasel in your herbal routine when alcohol is not desired.
What is a suitable dosage for children?
The amount can be adjusted according to the child’s body weight. A simple approximate method is to give a proportionally smaller amount based on body weight. For example, if an adult weighing 80 kg takes 1 teaspoon, a child weighing approximately 20 kg could take around one quarter of that amount.
This is a simple method of adjustment that is often used in practice. For younger children, it is advisable to start with a smaller amount and gradually increase it if needed.
