• "Genuine TincTract® Made" Is Original to LoR. Caarl (L. Carl) Robinson and Exclusive To Cedar Bear Naturales®
Cedar Bear Naturales™ holds the exclusive manufacturing use rights to the "Genuine TincTract® Made" brand liquid herbal products processing technology, which is now in its 6th generation of proprietary commercial enhancements and improvements (readying for a 7th generation of proprietary enhancements and improvements).
Conceived of in 1982 by LoR. Caarl (L. Carl) Robinson, MH,TT,CCHt (the founder & president of Cedar Bear Naturales™), and co-developed (the 1st generation process) with a fellow herbalist & past president of the American Herbalists Guild, the generationally enhanced and improved TincTract® brand process as exclusively used by Cedar Bear Naturales™ continues to use all the principles and practices embodied in the TincTract® philosophy.
• "Genuine TincTract® Made" Is An Earth Friendly & Sustainable Technology That Possesses A Low 'erg' Index.
Cedar Bear Naturales™ products possess one of the lowest 'erg' Indexes in the liquid herbal concentrate products industry. (An 'erg' is the unit of energy and mechanical work in the centimetre-gram-second (CGS) system of units, and is utilized in the 'erg' Index to ascertain a technology's impact on the economy and environment.) Cedar Bear Naturales™ proprietary technologies are sustainable, Green-based and very earth friendly.
Because our processing technology is so efficient and energetically alligned, we use less raw botanical materials, less BTU's of energy, have no toxic waste or harmful environmental by-products, yet, our finished products are concentrated, potent and possess an efficacy standard that matches and/or rivals other companies products who typically use many times more raw botanical ingredients, more BTU's of energy to make their products, and often produce large amounts of waste for the minimal amount of active constituents extracted per tonnage of raw botanical materials used. This all means Cedar Bear Naturales® category defining potent liquid herbal concentrates are made using one of the lowest overall 'erg' Index's in the liquid herbal products industry. That's what we mean by being an earth friendly & sustainable technology!
• Only Cedar Bear Naturales® Fully Utilizes All 4 Major Steps and Aspects Of The Key–To–Life based TincTract® Technology – No Short Cuts!
The Cedar Bear Naturales® "Genuine TincTract® Made" brand proprietary liquid herbal processing technology is the only one that utilizes all 4 major steps and aspects of the 'genuine TincTract® philosophy as embodied in the Key–To–Life' paradigm that was conceived and developed by its originator, LoR. Caarl (L. Carl) Robinson.
The underlying principles of the Key–To–Life paradigm, upon which the Genuine TincTract® Made brand technology is based, was transmitted to Mr. Robinson by a Maori Tahunga (traditional healer) in 1973/74, and in 1982 the Key–To–Life, as a model, came for him as an epiphany with the 1st generation TincTract® process being conceived and developed in the same year. Since then the TincTract® brand process has gone through numerous generational enhancements and improvements, many of a proprietary nature. The Genuine TincTract® Made processing technology is now in its 6th generation of proprietary enhancements and improvements and about to enter a 7th generation of enhancements and improvements.
A nutshell description of the Genuine TincTract® Made processing technology follows.
First, this serialized multi-step processing technology starts out with a step that stabilizes the intrinsic biological activity of a botanical's constituents and stops REDOX activity so that the raw botanical can be effectively and thoroughly liquid processed. Secondly, that step is followed by a sustained low impact 'critical' tincturing'type (cold) processing step that takes 10 to 60 days or more (depending on the herb or herb part used) that cold extracts the heat (and alcohol) sensitive constituents and preserves their biological viability, including enzyme potential, vitamins/co-factors, fragile high note aromatics and the important subtle energetic profiles that distinguishes a "Genuine TincTract® Made" product from all others. Thirdly, that step is then followed by a dynamic 'super-critical' extractive type step that removes and captures more essential aromatic components and resinoids, oleoresins, high density polysaccharides, sterols (lipids and waxes), etc., all in their synergistic ratio-intact poly-constituent state. (These constituents, especially the heavy ones, are not visually ascertained in other companies glycerite products, but are visually ascertained in a glycerite based "Genuine TincTract® Made" 'true' alcohol-free brand product.) Finally, that step is followed by a 'sustained' decoction type reduction step that clarifies and concentrates trace compounds and bitter elements that are hardest to remove from a plant's cellulotic and protein fixed matrix structure that the prior steps do not obtain. (If this clarifying and concentrating step is dispensed with and not done then it is not a TincTract® based process in any sense of the term.)
In between each of the afore described "Genuine TincTract® Made" brand liquid procesing steps we utilize a custom made high pressure press (all parts that come in contact with the processed product are NSF certified stainless steel) that exerts a whopping 20 tons PSI of slow delivered pressure (no heat generated) to thoroughly press the processed herb before it goes to a next step... all done under cGMP/HACCP compliant and stringent Kosher certified standards.
After all that, the fluid extracts derived from these different steps are mixed together. To this is added our proprietary all-natural organic microfractionated mB!™ polycolloidal trace mineral complex (also referred to as micro-fractionated ionic liquid trace minerals) for enhancing a product's intrinsic elemental potential and to enhance the finished product's steric hinderance/resistance based stability. This latter procedure is proprietary and totally unique and exclusive to the generationally enhanced and improved "Genuine TincTract® Made" products.
For the more technically inclined... steric hinderance/resistance based colloidal stabilization is extremely important where the stability of a genuine TincTract® brand product (or any other liquid based product for that matter), especially formula blends, is concerned, and it's a factor Cedar Bear Naturales™ has expended years of effort, R&D resources and costs to perfect – hence the 'standardized' level of consistency and astounding stability of our products that are unmatched anywhere in our industry for this type of product. Simply put, steric hindrance/resistance prevents chemical reactions from happening (including REDOX, inverting and precipitating activity, etc.) once our products are made.
The Cedar Bear Naturales™ "Genuine TincTract® Made" brand process is the only one that effectively exploits the benefits of steric hinderance/resistance so as to stop unwanted side-reactions (called 'steric protection') within a finished liquid herbal product medium, and it's totally all-natural! It gives our products astounding stability and absolute preservation. Mr. Robinson has TincTract® samples that are many years old and are opened every 3 to 4 years and thoroughly tested for quality and purity and show no degradation, breakdown, altering, pathogenic activity, etc.
Contrary to what others may say about their products relative to ours, when looked at from an apples-for-apples comparision, none have the intrinsic steric protected stability and absolute preservation qualities that match a "Genuine TincTract® Made" liquid herbal glycerite. This is all totally unique and original to the generationally enhanced and improved "Genuine TincTract® Made" brand liquid herbal processing technology as endorsed by its originator LoR. Caarl (L. Carl) Robinson and exclusively used by Cedar Bear Naturales™, and is unique in all the world to the "Genuine TincTract® Made" products.
Part of what makes this all possible is Cedar Bear Naturales™ uses a specially prepared proprietary all-natural coherent energy activated fluid extractive medium in the making of "Genuine TincTract® Made" brand products that is a high glycerin glycerite (glycerin and water mix) base that contains a very high percentage of glycerin, depending on the specific herb being processed.
This high glycerin based proprietary extractive medium has been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt to not only contribute to the astounding stability and shelf life of the finished product, but is absolutely essential to get the astoundingly high, and lab verified, ratio-intact synergy sparing poly-constituent extractive efficiency the "Genuine TincTract® Made" brand processing technology is noted for. This additionally means that our products possess an "absolute preservation" quality (verified by independent 3rd party safety and burden analysis) that meets the most stringent safety standards for foods, beverages and supplements, so no flash UV sterilization is ever used (which potentially affects constituents negatively and is known to accelerate REDOX activity (thus affecting overall intrinsic quality)) or additional preservatives and chemicals are required.
Even though FDA only requires a label stated minimum 2 year shelf life for non-juice/beverage liquid dietary supplement products, all genuine TincTract® brand products have a label stated 4 year expiration date – we were actually the first to introduce a 3 year label stated standard for liquid herbal products into the industry and now are the first to introduce a 4 year label stated standard – and they don't have to be refrigerated after opening!
• Maintaing The Integrity Of Each Herb's Unique Makeup and Qualities
All "Genuine TincTract® Made" herbs are liquid processed only as single herbs, and not as combination mixes (also called pre-blends). We have already done exhaustive R&D which ascertained that a pre-blend TincTract® does not possess as good a quality as a TincTract® formula made from blending "Genuine TincTract® Made" single herbs into a finished compounded formula (called a post-blend).
A post-blended formula made from single TincTract® processed herbs has proven to be much more stable and efficaciously viable than the same formula done as a pre-blend made TincTract® product, and surprisingly, a post-blend TincTract® formula actually tastes better than a pre-blend TincTract®. Extra work? Yes! But a better quality product all the same.
Our single TincTract® liquid herbs are used by clinicians and consumers alike to enhance and
boost individual formulas as well as being used by themselves as ‘simples.’ Clinicians and practitioners also use our TincTract® processed single liquid herbs to compound their own formulas so as to customize our TincTracts® specifically for a patient/patron's individual clinical needs.
Our single "Genuine TincTract® Made" liquid herbs are also purchased by outside wholesale accounts in gallonagle amounts (some very large) that they blend into their own simple formulas (typically no more than 3 to 4 single TincTract® singles at a time together) for their own food, beverage, confectionary or private label needs (check out the CBN™ Unit link for more details).
Based on ancient principals specifically honoring millenia of nature-based
healing wisdom coupled with cutting-edge science, TincTracts®, as endorsed by LoR. Caarl (L. Carl) Robinson and exclusively produced
by Cedar Bear Naturales™, are potent, great tasting, 100% true alcohol-free liquid herbal
concentrate products.
Cedar Bear Naturales™ "Genuine TincTract® Made" formulas and singles are Category Defining products that work
to bring balance to health. They contain a
broad spectrum of an herb's active constituents and compounds (i.e. poly-constituent), enzymes and co-factors, bio-active minerals
and trace minerals – all in a ratio-intact synergy – necessary
for the corrective purposes intended and the development of healthy cells and building healthy tissues,
organs, and enhancing natural vibrant energy.
The nutrients, active
constituents and poly-colloidal mineral complexes of a liquid TincTract® are imediately absorbed and from there directly taken into the cell to do their work to properly enhance health
and well-being.
• "TincTract®" – A Federally Registered Trademark Name
The "TincTract®" federally registered trade name is exclusively owned by Mr. Robinson and exclusively used by Cedar Bear Naturales™. If the 'TincTract' trade name is not followed by the federally registered '®' symbol (or is followed by some other symbol or term (i.e. '™,' 'Plus,' etc.)), then it's not a genuine generationally enhanced and improved Cedar Bear Naturales™ "Genuine TincTract® Made" product. Independent 3rd party lab analysis, clinical based pilot studies, practitioner recommended for decades, and the 'Category Defining' nature of our finished products solidly verify this.
Only "Genuine TincTract® Made" brand products are endorsed and warranted to be "Genuine TincTract® Made" by its originator, LoR. Caarl (L. Carl) Robinson, and Cedar Bear Naturales™. Look for the "Genuine TincTract® Made" statement as your assurance that you're getting the one and only genuine TincTract® brand.
• Only The Generationally Enhanced and Improved "Genuine TincTract® Made" Brand Technology Is Patentable!
That right! In 2005 legal research and independent professional assessment established that the genuine TincTract® brand technology with its generational proprietary trade secret commercial enhancements and improvements as exclusively utilized by Cedar Bear Naturales™ was deemed to be genuinely patentable. However, under the direct and personal advisement of then Under Secretary & Director (Jon W. Dudas) of the U.S.P.T.O. (United States Patent & Trademark Office) the owners of the technology were strongly encouraged and advised by him to not patent the technology but to continue keeping it proprietary and trade secreted exclusively with the owners of the technology and Cedar Bear Naturales™, which they have elected to continue so doing.
• "Genuine TincTract® Made" Brand Liquid Herbs Are 'Category Defining'
Cedar Bear Naturales™ TincTract® liquid herbal products are a 'Category Defining' class of products that possess profound corrective benefits and distinct effects upon the structure and functions of the body and also have the added benefit of being of a high poly-constituent nutritient profile. In other words, TincTract® made liquid herbal concentrate products hold a unique category position in that they are both correctives/restoratives and builders/sustainers of health, possessing incredibly complex micro-nutritional density, and are well suited to both the finished products we produce under our own retail brand as well as for differentiated private label/bulk ingredient/contract manufacture, making them 'Category Defining!'
