I thought about trying to make a extract of PM.
I have a still at home in wich i can make eccential oils or in the case of PM I woul mix the powder with alcohol, let it sit for some time and then run it through the still, to collect an extract of PM at the end. I am just not sure if first of all phytoestrogen is heat resistant (does anyone know? Would be around 80 °C or 175 °F) and if it will evaporate with the alcohol and secondly if it is even soluble in alcohol.
The other way would be to just put PM in oil or alcohol and let it stand there for a few days, but I think the quality of that is pretty low and the concentration would be much higher if it works with alcohol in the still, since the heat extracts way more then just letting it stand there.
Did anyone here try different ways of extracting the herbs?
