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.
Let customers speak for us
from 990 reviewsJacob, my 8 year old French Bulldog has been having joint issues and has needed antiinflammatory medication to manage this. It was effective, but after seeing the Proflax Bone and Joint I thought I would try a more natural product to keep him comfortable. Within a few days Jacob had the spring back in his step and looked brighter in himself. I have been able to adjust the dose to maintain his comfort levels. I am so pleased to have found this product to improve Jacob's quality of life.
After six days of using the supplement my wonderful old springer spaniel has more energy and her very loose stools have firmed up significantly after nothing else I tried seemed to help.
I am giving Omega bounce to both my dogs. This is to support their bones, joints, ligaments, kidneys and liver. My older dog has joint problems so this is exactly what he needs. I know my dogs are getting the best supplement and 100% natural.
Since recently moving to Somerset, our dog has had 4 ticks from February to April. We never had problems with any of our previous dogs, where we lived before. I started using the treatment and no ticks or fleas since! We go on the same routes but he remains clear. He’s on a raw diet and has no objection to the tincture mixed with his food. Fabulous! 👍
He has Proflax heart oil (we always have Boxers, who are prone) in the morning and Get Off Me at his evening meal. Both are excellent products.
My old dog doesn't like the mushroom when I add to his food so I have not been able to use it at all. However, I'm sure it would benefit him if he'd eat it! It could be an old age thing.
I haven't taken stars off because that wouldn't be fair if it's my dog's fussiness is the problem!!
I have been using this bundle for five days.
Every thing is going well I’m very impressed so far
My handsome 13 year old puppy is doing really well on the Golden Oldie, helps with his joints & keeps his healthy coat shiny, it’s our favourite
My pouch is doing well on these chews, I find it easy just mixing with his food, go down like a treat!
Our 10year old Springer had been suffering with his mobility for about 2 years. After lots of painkillers from the vet, his stomach started to bleed and he could no longer take them. He has been taking Tummy Tastic and Mega Mobility for over a year now, and is able to run and enjoy his walks. Since being on Proflax no stomach issues either. Wish we had know about this product years ago. Many of my friends are now using Proflax as they can’t believe the changes. Thank you
I buy this combination in the spring to support my dog. He is an ex street dog and came to us with terrible digestive issues and skin allergies. I really feel these products along with a good diet have helped him so much. He no longer has seasonal itching and his digestion is great now. I always have some Tummy Tastic in the cupboard to give him if he scavenges something off the floor outside as it settles his tummy.
I believe Tummy Tastic is the reason my dog’s life has been changed for the better. My dog went from not wanting to eat in the mornings to waiting excitedly for breakfast. He used to have intermittent loose stool too and since starting Tummy Tastic his stools have been perfect. I cannot prove it is Tummy Tastic of course, however the change has been so impressive since I started the product that I firmly believe it is the reason.
Highly delighted with the results after using Proflax yeast protocol.
Boo had a blockage in October 2024 following 5 days in the vets. She required lactulose daily and complete mish mash of a diet to enable her to pass stools. She subsequently started with hotspots, itching and yeasty symptoms, I put this down to not oniy the amount of sugary veg ( sweet potatoes and carrots) plus the total distribution to her micro biome. Since December she returned to a raw diet.. after much deliberation I found Proflax and I’m pleased I did..after 6 weeks in which today is her last day
her coat has returned to its former full and lustrous self. Proflax products are now something I wish to continue using in the future on Boo and both her housemates.
What a difference Proflax has made 😊
My dogs are raw fed & these oils are fab for blending with greens as a topper to their meals. I alternate between bottles to give maximum support as they are senior with joint issues. I love this brand!
Have just started my older bitch on this along side another joint supplement, as I just wanted an extra boost. There were certsin additions I wanted to add to her diet, and this formula covers it all.
She eats it mixed into her food without any issue. She seems comfortable and full of beans so can assume it's doing it's job
happy with resukts from feeding my setters with supplements - helps coat
