MORE HERBS IN THE EXTRACTS   9
ARE THE ABSOLUTE BEST!
REASON #2: MORE HERBS IN THE EXTRACTS!
WE FILL THE VATS TO THE TOP
If you read my letter to you on pages 4 and 5, I started making herbal formulae in my kitchen to save my life, not to make money. And then later on in the clinic, I made my herbal formulae even stronger to save my patients' lives. I have always had one focus when making my herbal formulae, GETTING PEOPLE WELL!
THE So-CALLED HERBAL EXPERTS ARE WRONG, DEAD WRONG
The herbal research books and the so-called herbal experts say that in manufacturing herbal extracts, you usually only need to put 10% herbs into the bottom of the container and the rest is the extracting liquid. They say that 10% herbs are all that's necessary and if you use more herbs, you're wasting them. WHO CARES. Have they forgotten people's lives are at stake? Let me tell you, if it were their ass on the line they would be cramming herbs into the vat with a pile driver and then jumping up and down on top of it to get every last root and leaf in. Actually, when it's their ass on the line, they go to the doctor and take antibiotics, I know, they tell me. Well my family and I don't use drugs, we don't go to doctors EVER and my herbal products are our medicine too. We use every one of my formulae, me, my wife and six year old son, we depend on them. I learned long ago, never skimp on putting enough herbs into the extracts. I also learned whatever you do, fill the vats to the top, the very top, because someday your life may depend on it.

THE VATS TO THE VERY

TOP WITH THE WET,

GROUND, SATURATED

HERBAL MASH!
The big difference between me and all the other herbal manufacturers is that I ran a clinic for 20 years. I know what it feels like to sit face to face with the sobbing parents of a dying child and watch it take its last breath. When you run a clinic, especially like I did with many very sick people, you do anything and everything to make the strongest herbal extracts possible. After all, when your parent, spouse or child is dying, you never skimp on the herbs!
          We start by filling the vats up to the very top with my herbal formulae blends of roots, barks, leaves and flowers. Then we add our liquid menstrum to just cover the herbs. Once the herbs are saturated we wet grind the herbs into an applesauce like consistency. After a day or two of sitting, the herbal mash settles to about half to two thirds to the top of the vat. Then we add more herb, wet grind again and keep doing this until when the mash settles, there is only about an inch of liquid on the top. This is about 98% concentration. No one could squeeze more herbs into our vats!
           Once we have a vat full of this herbal mash, we let it brew for about 14 days. The phases of the moon are as
Important for farmers planting and harvesting crops as they are for manufacturing herbal extracts. Consequently, we start the herbal brewing process on the new moon and strain and press it on the full moon, the same way herbal doctors have done it for centuries. Modern manufacturers say that my 14 day brewing cycles are old-fashioned, a waste of time and unnecessary. They have abandoned this tried and true method of making high potency herbal extracts for modern and quick 2 to 3 day special extraction processes.
           After14 days we press the mash out in our 24,000 pound pressure herbal press. Because of our concentration of herbs and the thick jelly-like consistency of the brewed mash, the pressing and filtering is a very slow and time consuming process. The results are we get much less herbal tonic compared to other manufacturers, but what comes out of our presses is the finest, most saturated. richest and most potent herbal juice extracts in the world.
