Mushroom Compound Tincture

5 Mushroom Compound Tincture: Nature’s Daily Elixir for Vitality & Longevity

At Lake Creek Soap Co. & Herbal Apothecary, we believe in the power of plant and fungi medicine to bring the body back into balance. One of the most remarkable blends in our apothecary is our 5 Mushroom Compound Tincture — a potent double extraction of Chaga, Reishi, Shiitake, Turkey Tail, and Lion’s Mane mushrooms. Together, these five powerful adaptogenic fungi form a true tonic for the body, mind, and spirit.

The Five Mushrooms of Wellness

🌿 Chaga – Known as the “King of Mushrooms,” Chaga is rich in antioxidants that fight free radicals, support immune defense, and promote radiant skin. It’s a deeply grounding fungus that enhances cellular repair and longevity.

🌿 Reishi – Called the “Mushroom of Immortality” in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Reishi helps regulate the immune system, calm the nervous system, and improve sleep and emotional balance. It’s the perfect ally for stress, anxiety, and overall vitality.

🌿 Shiitake – A culinary and medicinal favorite, Shiitake helps lower cholesterol, supports cardiovascular health, and strengthens immunity. It’s full of B vitamins and beta-glucans that nourish energy and endurance.

🌿 Turkey Tail – This colorful fan-shaped mushroom is one of the most studied fungi for its immune-boosting and anti-cancer properties. Turkey Tail helps regulate gut flora and strengthen the body’s natural defenses against disease.

🌿 Lion’s Mane – Famous for its unique appearance and brain-boosting benefits, Lion’s Mane supports nerve regeneration, focus, and mental clarity. It’s a favorite for memory, mood, and cognitive health.

Why a Compound Tincture?

Each mushroom shines on its own, but when combined through a double extraction process (using both alcohol and water to draw out their full spectrum of compounds), the synergy is powerful. This blend works to regulate the immune system, reduce inflammation, improve energy, and support longevity on a cellular level.

Think of it as your body’s daily tune-up — enhancing resilience, endurance, and balance throughout all your systems.

Make It a Daily Ritual

If you take any herbal supplements, this one deserves a place on your daily list. Just a few droppers full each day can help your body adapt to stress, support brain and immune health, and promote overall well-being.

When used consistently, the 5 Mushroom Compound Tincture becomes more than a supplement — it becomes a lifestyle ally for vitality, longevity, and holistic wellness.

Parasite Cleanse

Parasite Cleanse Tincture: Gentle Support for Your Body's Natural Detox

Parasites can enter the body in a variety of ways—through contaminated food or water, contact with animals, or even soil. Many people may carry parasites without obvious symptoms, making them difficult to detect. Some common signs that may suggest a parasitic presence include digestive discomfort, fatigue, unexplained skin irritations, and intermittent headaches. Because these symptoms are often subtle or mistaken for other conditions, regular cleansing can support overall health.

Our Parasite Cleanse Tincture combines the traditional power of black walnut hull, wormwood, and cloves—herbs well-known for their natural antiparasitic properties.

  • Black Walnut Hull: Contains juglone and tannins, compounds that help create an inhospitable environment for parasites, particularly targeting intestinal worms and liver flukes.

  • Wormwood: Rich in sesquiterpene lactones like artemisinin, this herb disrupts the parasite's life cycle and supports liver function.

  • Cloves: Provide eugenol, a compound with antimicrobial effects that aid in destroying parasite eggs and supporting overall gut health.

This formula is designed for a gentle yet effective cleanse. We recommend a 5-week cycle divided as:

  • 2 weeks of tincture use

  • 2 weeks off to allow your body to rest

  • Followed by another 2 weeks of use

This cycle supports a thorough cleanse while respecting your body’s natural rhythms.

Incorporating our Parasite Cleanse Tincture into your wellness routine can help maintain a balanced, parasite-free system, contributing to improved digestion, energy, and overall well-being.

Always consult a healthcare professional before beginning any new herbal regimen, especially if you have pre-existing health conditions or are pregnant or nursing.

Understanding Parasites and the Benefits of a Biannual Parasite Cleanse

Parasites are more common than many realize and can live undetected in the body for years. These unwelcome guests may enter your system through contaminated food, water, soil, or even close contact with animals and other people. Despite their microscopic size, parasites can impact your overall health in subtle yet significant ways.

How People Get Parasites

Parasites can enter the body through various routes:

  • Consuming undercooked or contaminated meat and fish

  • Drinking untreated or contaminated water

  • Poor hand hygiene after outdoor activities or contact with infected individuals or animals

  • Walking barefoot on contaminated soil

Because parasites often cause mild or nonspecific symptoms, many people remain unaware they have an infection.

Recognizing Symptoms of Parasites

Some common signs that may indicate a parasitic infection include:

  • Digestive issues such as bloating, gas, diarrhea, or constipation

  • Fatigue or unexplained weakness

  • Skin irritations or rashes

  • Unexplained weight loss or appetite changes

  • Frequent headaches or brain fog

If you experience these symptoms regularly, it might be worth considering a cleanse to support your body’s natural detox processes.

The Gentle Detox Approach with Our Parasite Cleanse Tincture

Our parasite cleanse tincture combines black walnut hull, wormwood, and cloves—three powerful herbs traditionally used to promote the elimination of parasites. Black walnut hull is known for its antiparasitic properties, wormwood supports digestive health and parasite removal, and cloves contain compounds that help break down parasite eggs.

This formula is designed as a gentle detox, supporting your body without harsh side effects typical of some conventional treatments. It works in harmony with your body’s systems to clear parasites while promoting overall digestive wellness.

Recommended Dosage and Usage

For optimal results, follow a 5-week dosage plan:

  • Take the tincture for 2 weeks consecutively

  • Then take a 1-week break to allow your system to rest

  • Follow with another 2-week course of the tincture

This structured approach helps sustain the cleanse without overburdening your body.

Why Cleanse Twice a Year?

Regular parasite cleanses help maintain a healthy internal environment, especially if you have a lifestyle or occupation that increases your exposure risk. Performing this cleanse twice annually helps prevent parasitic buildup, supports immune function, and keeps your digestive system functioning smoothly.

Taking proactive steps to cleanse and protect your body from parasites is part of maintaining holistic well-being. Our parasite cleanse tincture, with its synergistic blend of black walnut hull, wormwood, and cloves, offers a natural and balanced way to support this process. Always consult with a healthcare provider if you have concerns about parasitic infections or before beginning any new herbal regimen.
