About: Our self heal (Prunella vulgaris) tincture is crafted from fresh self heal leaves and flowers that are cultivated with organic methods on our micro farm in Mount Shasta, CA. We hand harvest the flowering tops in summer and tincture the leaves and flowers (no stem!) fresh in organic cane alcohol. This abundant, widespread and unassuming herb has many virtues and a long traditional use in TCM and Western herbalism.

Known as a great wound healer, used internally, it has affinity for the throat, lymphatic system, liver and kidneys. Self heal is astringent, anti-inflammatory, has hepatoprotective properties, and has been researched extensively for its antiviral properties. It can stimulate the lymph, aiding lymphatic congestion and sore throats. In TCM, it clears liver heat and nourishes the kidneys. A gentle and effective anti-viral, self heal can attenuate the onset of chronic viral outbreaks and support the healing of viral infections, in particular herpes infections. As an anti-inflammatory and wound healing herb, self heal can support the healing of the digestive system and mitigate the inflammation associated with conditions such as IBS, ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s.
