Give your patients the very best.

Our organic extracts achieve a level of purity, consistency and potency that others do not because we control the entire process from seed to bottle.

Farm-to-Bottle Transparency

We are here to support naturopathic doctors, integrative practitioners, and their patients by providing the highest quality all-organic extracts. All the active ingredients in our products are precisely quantified and transparently labeled. There are no ambiguously labeled “Proprietary Blends” concealing how much of the various ingredients are in our mixed formulas or single-plant extracts.

Our practitioners need to know exactly how much of each ingredient their patients are getting in each dose. And if it’s important to you and your patients, it is important to us.

We also lab-test each batch to assure the highest quality and consistency, and our Nokomis Seed-To-Bottle-Traceability Standards go above and beyond the current organic and FDA standards on traceability and quality of ingredients. Every ingredient and every bottle can be traced all the way back to its seed and to the exact organic-certified field where the plants were grown.

Why Choose A Liquid Extract?

In plant extracts, the soluble molecules of the plant are separated out from the pulpy fibrous materials and suspended in a liquid. It takes quality ingredients to make quality extracts, and even then the process takes time and precision. All extracts whether liquid, powders or gelcaps begin the process as liquid extracts.

In the case of powdered extract products or gelcaps and concentrates, the initial liquid extract is then heated, dried, or put through simultaneous pressurized and heated processing (called “supercritical” processing). Those processes strips away a host of compounds with important properties, and along the way you lose a broad-range of therapeutic molecules and synergists. Even though pills and powders might be more convenient, they are not the same as cold-pressed liquid extracts.

Our liquid extracts are the result of extensive research and experimentation. They are cold-pressed and never heated, retaining all of the valuable nutritional and therapeutic compounds often lost in other processing methods. The results are consistently potent, cold-pressed herbal extracts replete with a full range of compounds which, because they are suspended in liquid, are more readily absorbed by digestion.

Our Mixed Formulas
& Single-Plant Extracts

Our mixed formulas were developed from published controlled studies in peer-reviewed scientific literature. These mixed formulas were designed to deliver complementary extracts from multiple plants in a single formula.

Using plants therapeutically is as complex as any other therapeutic regimen. Different patients have different needs and sensitivities, and the plants we grow have a range of applicable uses.

The potency of well-prepared plant-based extracts is such that individuals should work directly with a provider familiar with their health history.

Our practitioners know the science, so trust your practitioner to answer your questions about how these formulas work, what these formulas are used for, and which extracts or formulas would best support your health. Our job at Nokomis is to guarantee the purity and potency of every extract in every bottle.

The legal separation between the pharmaceutical preparers of remedies and the practitioners who treat patients goes back to 1240 AD in the Mediterranean context, when Frederick II Hohenstaufen delivered an edict separating their two roles.
The reason for this was and is straightforward: the practitioner treating the patient should not have a monetary incentive in prescribing any specific product. Conversely, the manufacturer of a product should not be seeing patients because this would give them an incentive to over-prescribe their own product in order to boost their sales. This division is sacred in our mind because it is a centuries-old safeguard ensuring that the patient’s health is paramount in any decision about their health.
This is the primary ethical reason why we do not sell our extracts directly to the general public but instead work only with licensed practitioners.

Small Batch Quality

Consistently extracting a high-quality product from the best organic ingredients is time-consuming and delicate. At our FDA-registered and inspected facility, we produce small batches in lab-grade glass vats because it gives us the precision and the control that we need to produce an outstanding product. Certain processes cannot be replicated in big steel tanks, and the precision required for these extracts is one of them.
