"1:5" tells you how concentrated an extract is.
The Ratio
A "1:5 extract" is usually made from one part plant to five parts solvent, so 500 mg of it would hold roughly 100 mg of plant. A "4:1 extract" runs the other way: 0.8 mg of it stands for about 3 mg of plant. Some makers use the notation differently, and this label does not say which basis it uses.

Read in the usual way, every extract here is small next to trial doses. See cassia versus Ceylon, knotweed and how to judge claims.
