Burdock root...make a tincture?

[Spongegirl]

Greetings from Kentucky! I want to get the most out of a small amount of burdock root that I have. I crushed the root into powder and made a tea but I also am making a tincture from 100 proof vodka that I plan to leave alone for 6 weeks. I have looked online for information about getting the most out of burdock but am not really finding anything. I am also wondering if it would be more beneficial to my body to use the powder in a tea or best made into a tincture. Thanks you!
