Why it’s Pravé Bio
We have known Graham Botfield and Ben Shouler since 2018. We met at a trade fair in London and became some of their earliest customers, when Living Planet Distribution was still a young business. Our work with them now spans Planet Paleo, Botanicals For Life, Living Nutrition and Mushrooms For Life. Over the years, that working relationship has also become a friendship.
Botanicals For Life filled a gap in our range: alcohol-free herbal extracts with traceable ingredients and a taste we enjoy. We value the attention Graham and Ben give to growing methods, extraction and independent certification for the products that carry it.
- Organic and agroecological ingredients: how a herb is grown matters to us as much as its identity. We distinguish certified organic ingredients from agroecologically grown herbs and specify the status of each product.
- Declared extract ratios and amounts: the glycerites in this range specify a 1:1 ratio and the quantity of extract in 1 ml. A ratio describes concentration; it is not proof of quality on its own. We also consider the starting material, plant part and processing method.
- Taste and value, from our own experience: vegetable glycerine gives the drops a gently sweet taste. The blends with acerola have been particularly popular with our customers. We believe the quality offered at this price is a strong reason to choose the brand.
Over the past two years, our partnership has developed into exclusive import and distribution of these brands across Europe. From our warehouse in Otrokovice, Czech Republic, we also supply retailers in other European countries. Following Brexit, we provide a European distribution base for brands whose founders we know personally and have worked with for years.

What’s in the bundle
Two herbal glycerites and an oregano oil blend. Ginger and black walnut with wormwood use vegetable glycerine and water. Steam-distilled oregano leaf oil is diluted in extra virgin olive oil. Each bottle has its own ingredients and directions.
- Ginger Root (Zingiber officinale) – Organic Herbal Glycerite – 50 ml.
- Black Walnut & Wormwood (Juglans nigra, Artemisia absinthium) – Organic Herbal Glycerite – 50 ml.
- Oregano Oil – Pure Essential Oil in Olive Base – 50 ml.
Why These Three Products?
Ginger juice, aromatic oregano oil and traditional bitter herbs. The brand’s original selection covers three preparations: a ginger glycerite, steam-distilled oregano leaf oil, and a black walnut hull and wormwood leaf glycerite. You get a wider choice of botanicals, with each product kept separate and individually labelled.
Who Is It For?
Adults who want oregano oil and black walnut with wormwood alongside ginger drops. There are two glycerites and one oil-based product, each with its own dose.
Better value as a bundle
Save on the same three bottles bought individually. You receive the full-size products with their original labels, ingredients and directions.
Growing methods and organic certification
The oregano oil and ginger extract contain certified organic ingredients. In the black walnut and wormwood extract, glycerine and wormwood carry the organic asterisk; the ingredient list retains these individual designations.
Independent organic certification: what is checked?
Organic certification puts an independent control body between a producer’s promise and the label on the bottle. Checks cover supplier records, ingredient traceability, processing and the separation of organic and non-organic goods. This accountable supply chain is a substantial reason we value certified ingredients.
Certified UK businesses are inspected at least annually, with additional and unannounced visits also possible. Inspectors may take samples for accredited laboratory analysis. Suspected prohibited substances trigger an investigation; depending on the findings, action can include suspending organic sales, removing organic labelling or requiring a recall. Certification is therefore an ongoing obligation, rather than a one-off badge.
Agroecological does not mean certified organic
Agroecology applies ecological principles to farming: crop diversity, nutrient recycling and the relationships between soil, plants and their surroundings. The term describes an approach to cultivation, not an organic product certificate. We identify the documented status of each bottle separately.
Three details to look for on a herbal extract
- Ingredient asterisks: an organic mark beside glycerine applies to that ingredient. It does not establish that every herb in the formula is organic.
- Extract information: organic certification and a 1:1 extract ratio answer different questions. To compare preparations, also check the botanical species, plant part and quantity per dose.
- Batch analysis: a laboratory report identifies the sample and substances tested. Certification provides ongoing oversight, but is not a substitute for a particular batch report or a basis for claiming absolute purity.

Ingredients
| Product (50 ml) | Plant part | Declared amount |
|---|---|---|
| Ginger | root juice – Zingiber officinale | 1,000 mg of juice extract in 1 ml |
| Black walnut and wormwood | hull – Juglans nigra; leaf – Artemisia absinthium | 800 mg of black walnut extract and 200 mg of wormwood extract in 1 ml |
| Oregano oil | leaf – Origanum vulgare | 250 mg of oil blend in 5 drops (approximately 0.25 ml), including 25 mg of pure oregano oil |
The amounts above relate to the stated quantity of each product, not to a combined daily dose for the bundle. For the glycerites, 1 ml is approximately 20 drops.
Ginger
Coconut-derived vegetable glycerine*, purified water, ginger (Zingiber officinale) root juice extract*.
Black walnut and wormwood
Coconut-derived vegetable glycerine*, purified water, black walnut (Juglans nigra) hull extract powder, wormwood (Artemisia absinthium) leaf extract*.
Oregano oil
Cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil*, oregano (Origanum vulgare) leaf oil*.
*Certified organic ingredients.
The figure of over 70% carvacrol refers to the pure oregano oil, not the entire bottled blend. There are 25 mg of pure oregano oil in 250 mg of the finished blend.
How to Use
Follow the label on each individual bottle. Keep to its recommended daily dose and directions; an amount in the ingredients table does not establish how often to take it. There is no single combined dose for this bundle.
Keep each dropper with its original bottle. Check with a doctor or pharmacist before taking the extracts with medicines or other herbal products.
Warnings
- Food supplement. Not a substitute for a varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
- Do not exceed the recommended daily dose on each product’s label. Keep out of reach of children.
- This bundle is not suitable for children or during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
- Do not take the black walnut extract if you have a nut allergy. Consult a doctor or pharmacist before use if you take medicines or have a liver, kidney or gallbladder condition.
- Do not take a product if you are allergic to any of its ingredients. Stop use if you experience an adverse reaction.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Close the bottles securely after use. Check each label for any specific instructions after opening.
Botanicals For Life: the herbs, the origins and the people
Herbal extracts from the Living Planet teamBotanicals For Life was founded by naturopath Ben Shouler. It belongs to Living Planet Distribution, the business he established with Graham Botfield in 2016. Both founders are qualified nutritional therapists. Their work also spans Planet Paleo, Living Nutrition and Mushrooms For Life, each with its own ingredients and approach to processing natural materials.
Quality starts with the crop
Botanicals For Life selects herbs by their origin and how they are grown. The range uses certified organic ingredients alongside herbs from agroecological farms. These are distinct designations: we identify the certified ingredients and the agroecologically grown herbs in each product. That attention to the raw material, before extraction even begins, is one reason we value the brand.
Glycerine drops without the alcohol
The finished glycerites use coconut-derived vegetable glycerine and purified water. They are alcohol-free, with a gently sweet taste from the glycerine. In our experience, this appeals to customers who dislike the taste of conventional herbal tinctures. Oregano oil is a different preparation: steam-distilled leaf oil diluted in extra virgin olive oil.
Reading an extract ratio
The glycerites in these bundles state a 1:1 ratio and the quantity of extract in 1 ml. The ratio is only part of the picture. The plant part and starting material matter too: a root, leaf or juice extract is not interchangeable. Each bottle’s description therefore specifies the botanical name, plant part and declared amount.
The range includes single-herb extracts and herbal blends. Blends with acerola have been particularly popular with our customers. We chose Botanicals For Life for its ingredient sourcing, alcohol-free format and the value it offers at this level of quality. Packaging gives details of the herbs’ origins, processing and use; each bottle has its own ingredients and directions.
Nutritional therapy expertise
Ben Shouler and Graham Botfield are qualified nutritional therapists. Their team works across ingredient sourcing, formulation and retailer education. Read the founders’ profiles below for details of their training, teaching experience and dedicated product development facilities.
Made in the UK
The liquid extracts and oils are made in the UK. We consider plant provenance separately: the country of manufacture is not necessarily where the herb was grown. Botanical species and plant parts matter, because roots, leaves and juice are different starting materials.
Organic and agroecological crops
Independent organic certification checks provenance, traceability and processing. Certified UK operators are inspected at least annually. Asterisks in the ingredients identify certified ingredients. Agroecological farming alone does not establish organic certification.
Alcohol-free finished products
Glycerites contain vegetable glycerine and purified water. Their sweet taste appeals to customers who dislike alcohol-based tinctures. Oregano oil has a different carrier: extra virgin olive oil. Read each bottle’s directions for dosage and dilution.
Specified extract details
Compare the botanical species, plant part and extract quantity per equal volume, such as 1 ml, then check the recommended daily dose. A 1:1 ratio is not the percentage of an active constituent and cannot, by itself, establish the relative strength of different herbal products.
European distribution from Otrokovice
Pravé Bio handles exclusive import and European distribution of these LPD brands from our warehouse in Otrokovice, Czechia. You buy directly from a distributor familiar with the range, and can contact our team about ingredients and use. Our partnership story appears below.
The people behind the brand — and its journey to you
Graham Botfield and Ben Shouler: the expertise behind the formulations
- Graham: nutritional therapy, teaching and research. He studied at the Institute for Optimum Nutrition, later becoming a tutor and lecturer there. As the founder of Living Nutrition, he has a longstanding interest in plant fermentation and traditional herbal use. His work brings a focus on processing methods to the wider portfolio.
- Ben: from professional training to brand development. He trained in nutritional therapy at the College of Naturopathic Medicine in London. He is the founder behind Botanicals For Life and helped develop Planet Paleo. His work spans ingredient sourcing, formulation and bringing finished supplements to market.
- A dedicated development facility. In 2019, they established research and development facilities at Dunsfold Park in Surrey. Living Planet’s work extends from the initial concept and formulation to manufacture and retailer education. For Botanicals For Life, we look at the tangible details: the botanical species, plant part, extract format and clearly stated ingredients.
Jana and Honza: a personal selection, with a European base
- We know the people behind the brands we stock. We met Graham and Ben at a London trade show in 2018 and were among their early customers. Years of working together have also brought friendship. We run family-owned Pravé Bio as Jana Čevelová and Jan Zaoral, and those longstanding relationships inform our brand selection.
- Why we continue to choose Botanicals For Life. We value ingredient provenance, independent certification where products carry it, and thoughtful processing. In our experience with customers, the glycerites’ gently sweet taste and alcohol-free formulation have been particularly welcome. We also look for a price that makes carefully sourced extracts accessible.
- From London to our warehouse in Otrokovice. Over the past two years, our partnership has grown to include exclusive import and European distribution of these LPD brands. Since Brexit, our Czech warehouse has provided a distribution base for customers in other European countries too. Our team is your direct point of contact for questions about ingredients and use.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the bundle better value than buying separately?
Yes. The preferential price applies when you buy the three bottles together. These are the same individual products, with their own labels; the saving does not come from a smaller bottle or a different concentration. Compare the bundle with the combined prices of the individual products linked above.
Why have these particular extracts been paired?
The selection covers ginger juice, distilled oregano leaf oil, and a combined black walnut and wormwood extract. These are different preparations with separate directions. Follow the oil’s own drop count, rather than the directions for a glycerite.
How long will the bottles last?
There are three 50 ml bottles, giving 150 ml in total. Calculate each bottle’s supply from its own labelled daily dose. For example, 50 ml would provide 50 days at 1 ml a day; this illustrates the calculation, rather than prescribing a dose for the bundle. The bottles may run out at different times.
When should I take the drops, and can I add other supplements?
Follow each bottle’s label for timing, dose and any dilution; the bundle does not have one universal schedule. Check other supplements for overlapping herbs before combining them. If you take medicines, ask a pharmacist to review the whole combination, and keep each dropper with its original bottle.
Why are there four herbs but only three bottles?
Black walnut and wormwood share one bottle. The other two bottles contain ginger glycerite and oregano oil.
Does the whole bottle contain over 70% carvacrol?
No. That figure applies to the pure oregano oil within the olive oil blend. Five drops contain 250 mg of the blend, including 25 mg of pure oregano oil.
Do I need to take all three products together?
These are separate food supplements, each with its own label, rather than one premixed product. Selling them as a bundle does not establish a shared dose or make the combination suitable for everyone.
Do the drops contain alcohol?
The finished products are alcohol-free. Ginger and black walnut with wormwood use a glycerine base; the oregano oil is in olive oil.

Who is behind the Botanicals For Life brand
The Botanicals For Life brand was founded by naturopath Ben Shouler and nutritional therapist Graham Botfield.

Building on the success of their first brand, Mushrooms For Life, focused on medicinal mushrooms, they created Botanicals For Life – a portfolio of organic herbal extracts formulated with the same care and scientific approach.
