Goose cinquefoil, cut, organic - 100g

Potentilla anserina L. (syn. Potentilla, Potentilla anserina, Argentina vulgaris, Fragaria anserina), cut herb, from certified organic farming

Goosefoot cinquefoil is a perennial herbaceous plant with prostrate, creeping stolons and pinnate leaves with silvery hairs on the underside. The golden-yellow, five-petalled flowers appear singly on long stalks and have a double calyx. It prefers to grow in moist, nutrient-rich soil and is often found along roadsides, meadows and riverbanks.

Indication

For mild non-specific diarrhoea with cramp-like symptoms, for mild inflammation of the mucous membranes of the mouth and throat

Use

Pour 1/4 litre of boiling water (ideally 80°C) over 2 heaped teaspoons of goosefoot cinquefoil, leave to infuse for 10 minutes and then strain. Drink 2-3 cups a day, preferably hot and in sips, and preferably unsweetened. If you mix lemon balm and peppermint in equal parts, you can enhance its effect in a pleasant way.
