Ingredients explained
Uva ursi leaf extract (20% arbutin)
Arbutin releases hydroquinone derivatives in the urinary tract, which may help balance microbial growth and support urinary comfort.
Caution: Short-term use is advised because prolonged exposure to hydroquinone derivatives may irritate the urinary tract; avoid with pregnancy or if you have kidney concerns.
Berberine (from berberine sulphate and barberry root extract)
Berberine interacts with microbial cell membranes and enzymes while also influencing gut barrier and bile flow, which may support a balanced intestinal environment.
Caution: May interact with medications and can cause gastrointestinal discomfort; avoid during pregnancy and use only as directed for short periods.
Caprylic acid (as magnesium caprylate)
Caprylic acid is a medium-chain fatty acid that can disrupt microbial cell membranes in the gut, supporting a balanced intestinal flora.
Caution: May cause stomach upset in some people; take as directed and consider with food if sensitive.
Garlic bulb extract (3,500 ppm allicin)
Allicin-containing compounds interact with microbial enzymes and cell walls, which may help maintain microbial balance in the gut.
Caution: May increase garlic odor and cause digestive discomfort; may interact with blood-thinning agents.
Oregano oil
Phenolic compounds like carvacrol and thymol can disrupt microbial membranes and signaling, supporting a healthy microbial balance.
Caution: Concentrated essential oils may cause stomach irritation; dilute in water as directed and avoid during pregnancy.
How they work together
The formula combines membrane-active compounds like caprylic acid, oregano oil, and allicin-rich garlic with berberine alkaloids that act on microbial enzymes and gut ecology. Uva ursi focuses on the urinary tract while the other botanicals primarily act in the intestines, offering multi-site support for overall microbial balance.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: Consult a physician before use if pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition. Not for long-term use. Stop use if adverse events occur. Do not use more than three times per year. Proposition 65: exposure to lead, a chemical known in California to be associated with birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Who should be cautious: People with liver concerns or on blood-sugar-lowering medications may use caution due to berberine and barberry content. Those taking medications that interact with grapefruit should be cautious due to grapefruit seed extract. Individuals sensitive to alcohol may note the tincture contains 45–55% alcohol. If taking interacting medications, discuss with a healthcare provider before use.
Storage: Store at or below 86°F (30°C). Keep out of reach of children. Do not use if safety seals are broken or missing.
