Key Ingredients

Calendula

Traditionally, Calendula has been used to promote wound healing and prevent infections. In their herbal text, “The Modern Herbal Dispensatory,” T. Easley and S. Horne describe topically applied calendula as a common remedy for speeding up “tissue healing after injuries, burns, and bruises.” Rosemary Gladstar writes that “calendula… is a powerful vulnerary, healing wounds by promoting cell repair and growth.” Well-renowned herbalist Matthew Wood notes that calendula “cleans the wound from the inside out”.*

Goldenseal

Known as one of the most costly herbs, Goldenseal root has been an invaluable addition to this formula. Its antimicrobial, anti-parasitic, anti-fungal, and anti-inflammatory properties are some of the most potent agents found in nature. Our Goldenseal root is carefully cultivated for quality and sustainability.*

Comfrey

Plantain

In folk medicine, Plantain is known as a cure-all medicine. It’s typically chewed up and applied as a poultice to stings and cuts. Any way you prepare it, Plantain is a premier wound-mender. It’s high in inflammation-modulating compounds (Adom et al., 2017), which give it a soothing and emollient quality. It contains allantoin, a constituent that promotes tissue regeneration, also found in Comfrey.*

Yarrow

Known for its styptic properties to help stop bleeding, Yarrow also contains a natural antiseptic to prevent wounds from getting infected.*

Echinacea

Often only thought of as an internal medicine for colds, the topical use of Echinacea has been employed for centuries to combat pain, alleviate sunburn, heal wounds, and fight inflammation due to its antibacterial and antiviral powers. Much of the knowledge surrounding this purple coneflower has been passed down through generations of native people.*
