Purple loosestrife contains astringent chemicals called tannins and salicarin. These chemicals are astringent and can be useful in fighting inflammation, diarrhea and bacterial infections.
Topically this tincture can be used diluted as a rinse for sinusitis or applied to varicose veins, sores and hemorrhoids.
There is a special energy to herbs growing in the wild. Herbs harvested from pristine, wild areas are beyond organic standards. Wild herbs typically have higher concentrations of medicinal compounds and trace minerals than the same plants grown in cultivation.
“Using them as medicine provides us with the opportunity to learn wisdom about ourselves and Nature in a slowly unfolding manner. We can never know it all- only a fraction in fact- but the herbs are capable of constantly drawing us into a deeper understanding of ourselves as they heal us and we understand them.”
-Matthew Wood
