In a crowded supplement market, it’s easy to fall for the allure of “cheap” and “affordable” products. But have you ever stopped to ask yourself what you’re really paying for? Often, these products cost far more than you realize—not just in money, but in their effectiveness and long-term impact on your health.

The Real Cost of Cheap Supplements

1. Watered-Down Formulas

Many “affordable” supplements contain shockingly low amounts of the herbs or nutrients they claim to provide. Without an effective dose, you’re essentially paying for a placebo.

2. Fillers and Harmful Glycerins

Vegetable glycerin—commonly derived from soy, canola, or grapeseed oil—is used to fill bottles instead of active ingredients and beneficial herbs. These are highly processed seed oils that can cause inflammation, disrupt hormones, and have been linked to chronic illnesses like cancer and heart disease.

Capsules are often packed with fillers to make them appear full, but this only saves costs on herbs and active ingredients—making the supplements expensive for their lack of effectiveness.

3. Ineffective Dosages

Just because an herb is listed on the label doesn’t mean there’s enough of it to provide benefits. Without the right quantity, you’re simply wasting your money.

4. Misleading Marketing

Even expensive brands often sell products that prioritize flashy campaigns, influencer partnerships, or candy-like flavors to mask their lack of potency and effectiveness.

Tasting the Medicine is Part of the Healing

Our blends taste like what they are—medicine, not candy. Not all of them might please every single tastebud, and that’s intentional.

We don’t rely on unnecessary sweeteners or fillers to mask the natural flavors of the herbs. Instead, we honor the true taste of nature’s potency, because:

• The taste of the herbs connects your body to their healing power.
• It activates your senses, signaling real, therapeutic action. For example, bitter herbs stimulate bile production, aiding digestion and detoxification.
• Sweeteners and masking agents dilute medicinal properties, making the product feel more like candy and less like a true remedy.

While some of our blends taste sweeter naturally due to the synergy of their ingredients, they are never designed for flavor alone. They taste exactly as nature intended—potent, pure, and healing.

Real medicine doesn’t cater to tastebuds. It’s meant to transform your health, not just please your palate. Read more about this topic here.

Coconut Glycerin: A Revolutionary Approach

Wild Wholistic introduced tinctures made with organic coconut glycerin to the market—we never made tinctures with harmful soy, canola, or grapeseed oil glycerins. This is, in fact, one of the main reasons we started our brand of healing blends: because there were no tinctures free from harmful glycerins on the market.

Unlike vegetable glycerins, which are derived from highly processed seed oils, coconut glycerin is:

• Non-toxic and free from the residues that come with industrial processing.
• Anti-inflammatory and supportive of health, unlike highly processed seed oils like soy and canola oils, which are linked to heart disease, cancer, and hormone disruption.
• Safer for your body and more compatible with true healing, ensuring every drop of your tincture supports your well-being.

We questioned the industry standard and created something better—because healing blends should not contain ingredients that harm you.

Why Wild Wholistic is Setting a New Standard

We created Wild Wholistic because we saw everything wrong in the market and decided to do better.

1. Organic Ingredients, Double Extracted, Highly Concentrated, and Always Third-Party Tested

Our tinctures are formulated with organic herbs, double-extracted for maximum potency. Each serving contains enough of each herb to deliver real results—not just a placebo effect.

2. Medicine Over Margins

Despite our costly blends due to using premium ingredients and advanced extraction methods to make our blends bioavailable and truly healing, our blends are priced below market value. We intentionally keep our profit margins low because true healing should be accessible—not a luxury.

The Healing Process Starts with Integrity

At Wild Wholistic, we focus on delivering medicine that works:

• No fillers.
• No masking agents or unnecessary sweeteners.
• Highly concentrated and bioavailable formulations.
• Only organic ingredients.
• No shortcuts.

When you taste our blends, you’re experiencing their full potency—an essential part of the healing process. This isn’t about making something “taste good”; it’s about making something that works, honoring the herbs’ ability to restore balance in your body.
