Preparation and amount: Infusion: Steep 30 min. Take 6 oz. 1-2 times daily. Tincture: 20-60 drops 1-2 times daily. Fluid extract: 1/4 – 1/2 tsp. 1-2 times
daily.
Purposes: Shepherd’s purse is an
outstanding blood coagulant which can be used to stop internal or external
bleeding. Internally, it is an excellent astringent which will stop bleeding of
the lungs, colon, kidneys, and bladder. The tops should be used fresh for this
purposes, but an infusion of dried herb can also be used. It is also good for
excessive menstrual bleeding and bed-wetting. Because it acts to constrict the
blood vessels, it raises blood pressure. But it will also regulate blood pressure
and heart action, whether the pressure is too high or too low.
- It is good for intermittent fevers, hemorrhoids, and especially good for stopping diarrhea. It promotes uterine contracts during childbirth and can improve intestinal and bowel action. Steep 1 tsp. fresh or 2 tsp. dried herb in 1/2 cup water. Take 1 cup a day, unsweetened, a mouthful at a time.
Externally, put the juice in an ear to stop
pain. Doing this will also stop strange noises in the ear. It is also used in
washes and poultices for wounds on the body and especially on the head. It will
stop surface bleeding.
Note: Do not store shepherd’s purse longer than a year.
I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
ReplyDeleteliver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
