Nettle Root Tincture – A Potent Tonic for Prostate and Hormone Health*
“The Yin that Nourishes the Yang”
We’re proud to offer this new nettle root tincture, wildcrafted from the coast of Oregon and Washington, as you can see below. This high quality tincture is made in the USA and spagyrically prepared for maximized holistic potency.
Nettle (Urtica dioica) has long had a reputation for being a great herb for all kinds of issues. While the leaves and seeds are also used, it is the root that is most well known for promoting male health.*
From the harvest that went into this batch of nettle root tincture.
Nettle Root Tincture for Prostate Health*
Nettle root is first and foremost known for its amazing ability to help restore prostate health.*
Considering that men over 50 years of age have a 50% chance of having BPH, and men over 80 have a 90% chance, nettle root is a much needed ally in our modern day life.
Very often nettle root can help restore proper functioning, while having far less side effects than the drugs, like finasteride, typically handed out for this condition.*
The IPSS measures the following seven factors on a scale of 0 to 5, from not at all, to almost always, including:
1. had a sensation of not emptying your bladder completely after urinating?
2. had to urinate again less than two hours after you have urinated?
3. how often have you stopped and started, serveral times when you urinated?
4. found it difficult to postpone urination?
5. had a weak urinary stream?
6. had to push or stain to urinate?
7. how many times did you most typically get up to urinate from the time you went to bed at night until the time you got up in the morning?
A total score of 8-19 is considered moderate and a score of 20-35 is considered severe.
Nettle root has been shown to help restore healthy functioning in all of these symptoms.* In a large placebo controlled study with 668 subjects, the average improvement in the treatment group was from 19.8 to 11.8 in six months.*[1]
There are at least four other double-blind clinical trials which confirm this efficacy.* [2-6]
Some of these effects come from the hormonal action as described below, and others may be independent from it. For instance, Urtica dioica agglutinin (UDA) is a lectin found primarily in the stinging nettle root. UDA antagonizes the epidermal growth factor receptor which has a role in BPH.*[7]
UDA also has action on the immune system, stimulating T-lymphocytes and having anti-viral activity.*[8-10]

Nettle Root Tincture for Hormone Health*
All of the attention gets put on androgens. While these are important hormones, it is crucial to recognize that they are just one of many hormones, and there are many things that can happen to it.
- Aromatase is an enzyme that converts male hormones into estrogen. While a limited supply of estrogen is necessary for men, most men these days have far too much. Sadly, some men have more estrogen then their wives! A number of compounds inside of nettle root have been shown to inhibit aromatization.*[11] Several other compounds like secoisolariciresinol, oleanolic acid and ursolic acid have also been investigated for this ability.[12]
- Then there is SHBG. Nettle root lignans, such as (-)-3,4-divanillyltetrahydrofuran, have been shown to interfere with the binding of SHBG to androgens, androgen receptors and the SHBG receptor.*[13,14]
- Plus, nettle roots have been shown to have weak 5-alpha reductase inhibitor activity.*[15] This enzyme converts androgens into DHT and levels of DHT that are too high are implicated in BPH as well as prostate cancer.
As Jeff, the creator of this tincture, puts it, “nettle root is the Yin that nourishes Yang.” If you understand this in light of the hormones, it shows why nettle root can be an important balancing factor when used with more yang herbs like pine pollen tincture and tongkat ali.
Nettle Root for Women’s Hormone Health*
While it has a strong reputation as a male herb, that doesn’t mean that women can’t benefit from it as well. Because of its actions on things like aromatization and SHBG, nettle root can also support female hormone health too.*
Though this is only beginning to be scientifically studied, many herbalists are using nettle root to help women with hyperandrogenism and PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome).[16]*
Wildcrafted and Spagyrically Prepared Nettle Root Tincture
This tincture is brought to you by the same people that provide our Ashwagandha Tincture. If you’ve tried that, then you know how high quality it is! All pictures on this page come from the actual harvest and tincturing process of the batch we have available.
These roots are wildcrafted from pristine areas from the coast range of Oregon and Washington. Then they are tinctured in 40% organic cane alcohol and distilled water.
After being pressed the roots are burned and ground down, the soluble minerals separated out from the insoluble and added back into the tincture. This spagyric process helps to strengthen the tincture by providing back the natural mineral matrix. In alchemical terms, this is putting the salt (body), back into the sulphur and mercury (soul and spirit). Separation and unification. If you don’t know what any of that means don’t worry. It just means that this nettle root tincture is more potent in a holistic way than pretty much anything else out in the market.
Just nettle root, water and organic cane alcohol, nothing else.
It is important to note that this is a whole root extract. It is not standardized. While there is are some nettle root products that are standardized to their scopoletin content, this is just of the many active constituents of this amazing plant.
The nettle roots burned in the crucible as part of the spagyric process.
How to take Nettle Root Tincture
The recommended dose is 30 drops (a dropperful) twice per day. The best way to do this is to squirt the dropper into your mouth and hold it under your tongue for about 30 seconds.
The tincture can also be added to water, tea, or other drinks. However, as mentioned above, sublingually, meaning under the tongue, is the preferred method.
Because of the ease of use, our nettle root tincture may be preferred by many over the nettle root powder. But because of the different growing and extraction methods each may have slightly different benefits. Many people will find even better results by combining the two, and also with other male reproductive supporting herbs like pine pollen and tongkat ali.

My husband has been taking the nettle with saw palmento and he has less trips to bathroom and does not have to pre during the night. It’s amazing.
Art Ramsay –
Since I am what some call “an old man” there aspects of taking the Nettle Root Tincture that may as yet to be discovered. I have not been using it regularly, thus can’t say it works positively. I need to take it on a consistent basis in order to give a better review. I will say that is very easy to take and tastes great. On a couple of occasions when I have taken the recommended amount I do believe I had less trips to the bathroom at night. I know this may not help you decide whether to buy this, but I would recommend giving it a try .
Tom Marciniak –
My first tincture of nettle root I did not hold it under my tongue as suggested and I felt it did not seem to do anything. I am half way through my second bottle so we see what happens!
Tom Marciniak –
My first tincture of nettle root I did not hold it under my tongue for one minute as suggested so it did not seem to do anything for me. I now hold it under my tongue as suggested and I am half way through my second tincture , so we will see!Tom

Art Smith –
I I ordered it because of frequent night time trips to the bathroom, but unfortunately I have been away from home for a couple pf weeks and forgot to bring it with me and was not able to give it a decent tryout. I will let you know how it works when I have been able try it on a regular basis. I am 86 so I am hoping for results soon!
Jim (verified owner) –
If you are are taking pine pollen and Tongkat Ali, I would recommend taking nettle root. I cycle it five days on two days off. It increases my libido, and has definitely helped my testosterone. I tried both the powder and tincture, and found the tincture works better

Ronald Seymour –
My main reason for trying nettle root-tincture,was mainly preventive,I am at the age where I should be taking more care with my water works etc,all I can say is most of the herbs I get from LEH,work and nettle tincture does,I cannot pin point any specific changes,but how about this,a marked increase in orgasmic intensity,and also an increase in seminal emission,yes( shooting off)lol Ronald
Mike (verified owner) –
Taking nettle root tincture off and on for a few months now, not sure how it’s been working with my testosterone, but noticed much better prostate health. Love the tinctures!
Tyler Sherman-Stark –
I used it very little here and their however I enjoy it I will be going to the powder for daily use, but it’s a fast acting one I take it with an atomic iodine when I feel I need to stabilize my hormones and engery field, not using the TongKar right now as I do t have sexual problems and my works outs need to get back to where they were last year before I take it again, I have heard that before that the tobgkat can make people feel very upset When I used tongkat with DMI or DIM it worked so well due to the estrogen blockering my voice was deeper then normal, my body temp was warmer, The nettal root will be used when I take the tong cat again

As with the nettle root power I love the effects! The ability to comfortably go longer time without urinating is pretty obvious. I know by my work hours when I usually go. Also when combined with Pine Pollen tincture and Tongat Ali, it keeps your mood and everything very positive and balances the high testosterone. I feel like without Nettle the testoserone turns into estrogen because without the Nettle after a few hours I felt a little anxious and emotionally upset. When I have the Nettle together with the Pine Pollen tincture and Tongat it really keeps you feeling positive and get the most out of the testosterone. The tincture is also awesome because you can actually take a dropper of Pine Pollen and Nettle Root tincture together and walk out the door in less than 1 minute. If you are like me and love the effects of these herbs in your daily life being able to take the tincture is so awesome! It is definetly at least effective as the Nettle Root powder although I haven’t done any testing to show it, I know because I can feel the results.

I had been dealing with a middle of the night trip to the bathroom every night, sometimes two. I am 57 years old. After a few weeks using nettle root tincture, the two trip nights are a thing of the past. If I use any care to limit fluids after supper – – – I sleep the whole night through!
Jason Carman (verified owner) –
I recently tried Nettle root with both Ashawanda & Pine Pollen tincture. I just ran out as I got used to using them together to up my testosterone as advised. Now, I didn’t check numbers before or after but I definitely felt it when I took the Nettle Root and hope to get more soon. I definitely recommend this product it’s excellent!
Kenneth l. Fluker (verified owner) –
Yes, I tried the nettle root tincture for the first time about 3 weeks ago, and the results was much better than I expected. I am 56 and have been dealing with the bathroom trips late into the morning and have tried the pharmaceutical choices and all that was accomplished was side effects that I am still trying to forget. Your product i guess was made with God’s ingredients, and I really appreciate your product. Thanks for your help and the Lady of the residents is enjoying a little more of her treat due to increase testosterone . Happy wife, Happy Life
Zane Christopher –
Thanks for the first review, Kenneth! Really happy it works for one person out there, haha.
