Burdock Tincture
Product Details
Burdock, Arctium lappa, is that plant that most people hate! Its burrs get stuck on one's pants or in the dog's hair and are extremely hard to remove.
Why those pesky burrs?
This plant is only trying to reproduce because it offers so much, which is overlooked by humankind.
Burdock is good for so many things. Here are a few:
- contains a huge amount of healthy oils
- great for teenage acne and oily skin
- supports the spine
- great for eczema (especially when paired with Oregon Grapefruit)
- endocrine health
- high in inulin, which helps with digestion
- frontal headaches
I foraged this plant in central Minnesota.
Comes in a 1 oz amber bottle come with a dropper.
I use the folk method for making all my tinctures, which uses no measurements except sizing things up with your eyes. So I put the plant material in a jar and then fill with alcohol.
Dosages -
Tinctures are meant to be used as medicine in small amounts. Add 10-20 drops to your tea, juice, water or directly into your mouth when needed.
Dosages for children are not provided in most herbals. To determine the correct dose you need to consider the size of the child, the ailment, the power of the herb you intend to use, and the adult dosage.
Young's Rule for determining dosage uses the child's age divided by twelve plus the age. The dosage for a 4 year old: 4/12+4 = 4/16 = 1/4 of the adult dose.
