This tincture can be used in small doses (usually a few drops) to potentially enhance cognitive function and promote wound healing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1199\" data-end=\"1428\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"1202\" data-end=\"1224\"\u003eGlycerin Tincture:\u003c\/strong\u003e If you prefer a non-alcoholic tincture, replace the alcohol with vegetable glycerin following the same process.
