Wild Plants with Medicinal Qualities: Part 4
December 14th 2007 05:34
Ready for yet another listing added to the segments of the medicinal qualities held by wild plants? Good, I hope you can find this post both informative and useful.
Horehound, this unattractive name is branded on a weed that grows wild. The round wrinkly leaves grown from the square like stem usually grow to two feet tall. This plant is from the mint family and it really is no wonder the medicinal qualities that come from this straggly weed. By boiling these leaves and straining you can sip a minty tea to rid yourself of chronic coughs associated with colds or asthma. Also, by cooking the water and leaves slowly then adding honey til it thickens greatly, you can cool and break off pieces to suck on as a cough drop.
