Guest guest Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 I suspect this is mostly marketing bs. You need a minimum of 25% alcohol in a formulation to inhibit most bugs and far higher to inhibit others. In addition, they state they are using " organic ethanol " then they say it is denatured ethanol. Denatured ethanol is created by adding synthetic chemicals into the pure drinkable alcohol. So why claim it is OG but then let out that you are using a chemical???? You can say anything on the internet!

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Well, alcohol is pretty high up on the list of ingredients... they also say they " denatured " it with lavender oil <shrug> My impression was that denature just means to make undrinkable. Still interesting to me, although I wonder about how the product actually works with so much alcohol in it. -Josh >I suspect this is mostly marketing bs.
