Herbal Tinctures Explained
Proflax tinctures explained
The herbs used in Proflax tinctures have been carefully selected for their therapeutic benefits. The dried herb is taken and put through a process called maceration, which means that the herb is steeped in a solvent in order to extract the beneficial bioative compounds. The solvent used is called ethanol.
How safe are tinctures that have been macerated in ethanol?
Tinctures are generally safe for dogs when used as directed, thanks to the extremely low amount of alcohol in the final product. Although ethanol is used during the extraction process to pull out beneficial plant compounds, most of the alcohol is removed afterward. What remains is a minimal amount—far below harmful levels—which is then further diluted when blended with our oils (either flax or fish). In fact, 75% of the final mixture is oil, and only 25% is the herbal tincture blend.
To put this into perspective, it would take around 375 drops of pure alcohol consumed all at once, to pose a danger to dogs, which is far in excess of what would ever be used in a single serving. Plus, tinctures aren’t pure alcohol to begin with. The small doses recommended for dogs contain alcohol levels that are well below any toxic threshold, making them both safe and effective when used properly.
Should you be at all concerned about using Proflax tinctures, please consult your own vet for advice, as they will have your dogs medical history.

All proflax products are the healthy option with no nasties but the best thing is the staff really know their stuff, are very helpful when you ring and wont sell you anything you dont need.
Great product that really works , helps our 13 yr old spaniel.
Fantastic product. Really helps my pooch with his anal glands. Been the best and wouldn’t be without it.
I initially got Moody Bitch to give to my girlie during her second season but I have started her on it full time as she has a tendency to try and hump now and again. She takes this every other day as she also takes Omega Bounce, we are a couple of weeks in and I have noticed she is not trying to hump as much, she does this when she has a funny 5 minutes at a certain time of the day but the issue seems to be subsiding. I feel like her little hormones are finally balancing out.
Tried all sorts to sort my Labs bouts of runny poo out, I was at my wits end!
I was recommended Tummy tasting and haven’t looked back. I just mix it in her food once a day and she’s had perfect poo ever since!
Highly recommend, cheaper than vets bills 😊
I have a standard dachshund that sometimes likes to eat things when we are out and about, so I was looking for some natural product that could protect her tummy on an ongoing basis. I found “Tummy Tastic” from Proflax and I am really happy i did! She has been great from the first time i used it on her food, do much so, that she has even quieten down about picking up stuff on the roads! I have to say, it has made my life a lot easier to see her without stomach upsets. Thank you.
I found these products when I read about someone mentioning them regarding another dachshund like mine.
I strongly believe in the power of natural products, so I decided to check the website and was love at first sight. So I bought the “Tommy tastic” as my Wren was having some stomach problem. It got better the day after I gave the powder to her. Thank you Proflax!
Lovely oil all the dogs are enjoying it on their food
I’ve been using proflax for my dogs for a good few years now and I’m always impressed with the quality of the products and the results
Our 8.5 yr labradoodle developed a persistent cough, mainly of a night time, but also after drinking. A vet visit diagnosed the beginning of congestive heart failure.
Today we revisited the vet, the outcome the heart irregularities were definitely less pronounced. His cough has also reduced in persistence.
This after just a month of taking Proflax Heart and Circulation support.
Thank you Proflax for your help!
Keeps him healthy
It’s the first time my dog has calmed down in years, the best thing I’ve ever brought for him
Worked very well was back to normal within the day
Its still early days for using this however, I feel its 100% making a difference. Esme suffers from stiff muscles and had had some hydro and physio and now I am building her back up to longer walks. I have found taking her to the coast will cause her some discomfort in the evening after that walk so I have been trying to find the right time frame for her. We have done an hour this week and she was completely fine but also I have noticed she is going up the stairs quicker and has been having more zoomie sessions, all since starting this oil - so I think this is our sign that it is 100% working for her!
