Nature's Answer is a family-run American producer of herbal extracts, founded in 1972. Most of the range is liquid: fluid extracts in 30 ml dropper bottles, liquid vitamins and minerals, plus a smaller line of capsules. That makes it one of the more distinctive names among the brands in our range, and it needs a short explanation before you choose a bottle.
Nature's Answer works with a true 1:1 fluid extract. One millilitre carries the equivalent of one gram of dried herb. Many standard tinctures are 1:4 or 1:5, so you need several millilitres to reach the same amount of plant material. The extracts are made cold, without heat, a process the brand calls Bio-Chelation. In daily use that means small volumes, a strong taste, and a label that tells you exactly what one millilitre contains.
Most extracts come in two versions: alcohol-free, with vegetable glycerine as the solvent, and low alcohol, made with organic alcohol. Alcohol-free is the usual pick for children, for anyone avoiding alcohol, and for people who dislike the sting on the tongue. Glycerine holds on to fewer of the resin-rich plant compounds, so for herbs such as myrrh or lobelia the low-alcohol version often suits better. If you already use tinctures from other producers, note that the dosing volumes here are usually smaller.
The range goes wider than single herbs. Alongside milk thistle, echinacea and olive leaf you will find herbal blends, liquid minerals such as magnesium glycinate, and vitamin drops for children and adults. Serving sizes are printed per millilitre, so a 30 ml bottle can last a month or longer, depending on the herb. Our broader shelf of herbs and plant extracts shows many of the same ingredients in capsules and powders, which helps if you want a tasteless option.
We judge a brand on three things: the form of the ingredient, the dose, and whether the combinations make sense. Nature's Answer scores on form. A true 1:1 extract tells you how much dried herb you take per millilitre, which many tinctures on the market do not. We also value the choice between alcohol-free and low alcohol, because it lets you match the product to the person taking it. We buy directly from the brand, with no intermediaries, and every label passes our compliance team before it goes live. See how we select our brands.
Liquid extracts suit you if capsules are hard to swallow, if you want to adjust the amount by drops, or if you prefer to taste what you take. They are less practical on the go: a dropper bottle is not pocket-sized, and the flavour of herbs like valerian is blunt. Herbal extracts also work gradually. Give a daily herb two to three weeks of consistent use before you judge it. Keep opened alcohol-free bottles cool and dark, because glycerine keeps less long than alcohol. If you are unsure where to start, take one product rather than three, so you can tell what is doing what.
Nature's Answer is a family-owned American producer of herbal supplements, founded in 1972 and still run by the same family. Their core product is the liquid herbal extract: a 30 ml dropper bottle of a single herb or a blend, made with a cold extraction process the brand calls Bio-Chelation. Around that core they make liquid vitamins and minerals, vitamin drops and a smaller number of capsules. Manufacturing happens in their own facility in New York State.
