Yarrow
is well-known for its use as a remedy for cold/flu/fever. It is
best to use Yarrow as a hot tea during the first stages of sickness,
especially in combination with Elder, Catnip and Mint.
It is tonifying and
anti-inflammatory to the skin and mucus membranes of the stomach
and bowels; thus, helpful for varicose veins, gastroenteritis, dysentery,
and diarrhea.
As a hemostatic,
Yarrow helps to stop bleeding of stomach ulcers, hemorrhoids, and
for nosebleeds (especially those due to allergies).
Due to its anti-inflammatory
properties, it helps to relieve the dull, achey menstrual pains.
