Ancestral Foodie Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Hi there, I suffer from anxiety and my herbalist (who recommended the paleo diet), has put me on a herbal tincture just before bed. The only thing is that it contains alcohol. Is this ok on the whole30, or should I give it up for 30 days? I'm only on day 3, so it's not a biggy to start again. Thanks!

Holly Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 If you put it in some hot tea the alcohol will evaporate off. I wouldn't worry about it, personally. Others may have a different opinion about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirsteen Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 I'm afraid the alcohol doesn't actually evaporate completely which is why it isn't allowed even in cooking. However, medical conditions will always trump a W30. If you can get the herbs without the alcohol that might be worth considering but if you can't, and you feel you need them for your anxiety then I wouldn't gie them up, I'd just keep going.
