Ingredient descriptions:

Organic Red Clover Blossom (Trifolium pratense)

Actions: Antineoplastic, alterative, depurative, expectorant, antispasmodic, antiseptic.

Common Use: A very useful remedy for skin problems, especially safe for children, it is also commonly used in the therapy of chronic skin problems such as psoriasis. The expectorant and anti-spasmodic action of red clover make it a natural alternative for coughs and bronchitis, and especially in whooping cough. As an alterative with exceptional blood cleansing properties, red clover is indicated in a wide range of problems when approached in a holistic sense. This herb is also included in the Hoxsey formula.

Organic Licorice Root (Glycyrrhiza glabra)

Actions: Expectorant, demulcent, anti-inflammatory, adrenal agent, antispasmodic, mild laxative, alterative, antibacterial, antimicrobial, antitoxic, tonic, pectoral.

Common Use: In China, licorice root has been called "The Great Detoxifier." It acts on the endocrine system and the liver as an anti-hepatotoxic. Also as an expectorant and anti-inflammatory it may be useful in coughs and bronchitis. A recent study found that licorice root actually stimulates the production of interferon, that critical chemical in the immune system that could benefit the body in response to many immune response deficiencies. Licorice root also possesses estrogenic activity, and is said to be beneficial as a uterine tonic and to induce normal ovulation. This herb is also included in the Hoxsey formula. 5 to 30 drops 2-3 times daily. Caution: Excessive and prolonged use of licorice root can cause sodium retention and potassium depletion. Potassium supplementation (75-100mg daily) prevents this problem. Not recommended if nursing or pregnant.

Organic Burdock Root (Arctium lappa)

Actions: Alterative, depurative, diuretic, bitter, tonic.

Common Use: This root is well known for its blood cleansing properties and is used in innumerable herbal medicines and blood remedies. Experiments on burdock have shown it to lower blood sugar, and destroy fungal and bacteria cultures. Japanese researchers at Nagoya University found in burdock (aka Gobo root in Japan) a new type of desmutagen, a substance that is uniquely capable of reducing cell mutation in either the absence or the presence of metabolic activation. This new property is so important, the Japanese scientists named it the B-factor for "burdock factor." In general, it is claimed burdock will help restore the body to a state of integration and health. Burdock is also included in the Hoxsey formula and Rene Caisse's Essiac formula.

Actions: Alterative, depurative, expectorant, diaphoretic, sialagogue, astringent, antispasmodic.

As an astringent it may be used in a number of conditions, but especially for hemorrhoids. This herb is also included in the Hoxsey formula.

Common Use: Poke root has a wide range of uses and is a valuable addition to many holistic remedies. The root has a very favorable influence on the glandular system, inciting and increasing its action. It regulates the liver and bowels and cleanses the blood and is therefore highly valued in conditions due to impurities in the blood. It is often used as a remedy for upper respiratory infections, coughs, tonsillitis, laryngitis, swollen glands and mumps. It is an excellent aid in cleansing the lymphatic glands throughout the body and is especially helpful in mastitis. Poke root also has a use in rheumatism.

Also known to be helpful for stomach and gall bladder conditions, especially where there is associated nausea and vomiting. This herb is included in the Hoxsey formula.
