S is for Skullcap

For hungreds of
years, Native
Americans used
Skullcap as a
nervine for
anxiety and
insomnia.

What a stroke
of luck to have
Skullcap for
their nerves at
a time in
history when
European terrorists were chomping up bits of their land.

Medicinal Use:  For blood clots in the brain, inflammation,
seizures, stroke, viral infections and to lower
cholesterol.
It's a sure fire treatment for any nervous system
malfunction of a mild or chronic nature.  In combinations
with ginseng, it is very effective in treating DT"s of
alcoholism.
It is usually more effective to combine Skullcap with other
complementary herbs.
