stinging nettle
Nettle is thought of as a tonic for its high vitamin and mineral content. Nettle's actions are also, antiproliferative, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, analgesic. Nettle also supports the cardiovascular system.
Nettle has been shown to inactivate and inhibit the H1 receptors (H1 blocking medications are used to treat allergies) and stabalise mast cells which prevents extra histamine being released in your body. The downstream effect is a reduction in the messenger molecules that contribute to inflammation and allergy symptoms.
Nettle increases urine output while decreasing the uric acid plasma levels. The diuretic action of Nettle makes it useful in those dealing with; fluid retention, arthritis with swollen joints, gout, and congestive heart disease.
The compounds in nettle play an important role in chronic and degenerative conditions of the musculoskeletal system such as RA, OA, gout, joint pain and fibromyalgia.
Nettle is a powerhouse herb packed with vitamins and minerals such as A, B, C, K, calcium, magnesium, and iron.
the solvent
We use six times distilled, organic, cerifited gluten free, Vodka as the solvet to extract the medicinal constituents from the herb.
Vodka is often used in tincture making because it is tasteless, and contains no additional ingredients.
