Common Mallow Tincture
Product Details
Common Mallow, Malva neglecta, is also called malva, cheeseweed and cheese wheel.
It is in the Mallow family, along with Hollyhock and Marshmallow, which all have mucilaginous aspects.
Any plant from the Mallow family is great for spider and snake bites when applied as soon as possible as it helps stop the venom from breaking down the tissue. It is also helps to reverse early stages of gangrene, like it talks the tissue out of dying.
Common Mallow can help with:
- sore throat
- diarrhea
- wounds
- fever
- colds
- bronchitis
- upper respiratory conditions
- soothing sunburns and other inflamed skin conditions
- acid indigestion
- stomach ulcers
- ulcerative colitis
- irritable bowel syndrome
- chronic coughs
- bladder infections
- interstitial cystitis
- dry mouth
- diabetes
- painful periods
- lack of menstruation.
I foraged this plant in central Minnesota.
NOTE: 1 oz bottle, comes 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.
