What is viscum album?
Viscum album (white mistletoe) is an ancient, healing and miraculous plant. She lives like a parasit on deciduous, fir and spruce trees.
The Kelts worshiped her as a holy plant that can heal any disease.
White mistletoe grows as a parasite on a plant in the form of balls. Her berries are whitish and its leaves are yellowish-green. Her leaves and stalk are healing while the berries are poisonous if you eat them. However, berries can be used in creams against frostbite.
The way of use are: tea, tincture, fresh juice and in creams.
It is used as a prevention and help in various diseases and problems such as:
- metabolism disorder
- hormonal imbalance
- blood pressure
- menstrual cycle (abundant bleeding)
Why I'm writting this?
Well, I'm writting this because of my problems with abundant menstural bleeding and unbalanced hormones which have made me anemic.
After a while, my mom found this I dare to say, magical plant.
She found it in the book called "Health through God's Pharmacy" by Maria Treben.
First, I started drinking tea. Here you can see how it looks:
How it is made: tea is prepared only as a cold drink. One teaspoon is put in 2 dlc of water and left overnight. In the morning, it should be warm up slightly and strained.
I have been drinking tea for a while, but sometimes, I would forget to put tea in the water in the evening. So, I have started looking for a simpler way to take it and I have found a tincture of white mistletoe in a herbal pharmacy. It is taken in a way that one teaspoon of tincture is diluted in 1 dcl of water.
After about two months, I have noticed that my condition got better. My period has become less abundant and my complete blood count got better. I'm still taking it because it helped me in so many ways!
White mistletoe should be taken for a longer period of time to achieve long-lasting effect.
