Dragon Head Herb: 100g Tea for Holistic Wellness

Description:

Dragon Head (Dracocephalum moldavicum) herb offers a wide array of potential health benefits. Traditionally used in Chinese and Tibetan medicine, and valued by Russian herbalists, this herb boasts a pleasant citrus and mint aroma. Its therapeutic properties stem from a rich composition including flavonoids, essential oils, organic acids, polysaccharides, tannins, and a vital mineral-vitamin complex.

Dragon Head tea may be beneficial for:

• Cardiovascular Support: Assists in regulating rapid heartbeat.
• Nervous System Support: Provides calming effects for neuralgia, anxiety, and nervous tension.
• Digestive Health: Improves digestion, stimulates appetite, and may alleviate various gastrointestinal, liver, and kidney ailments.
• Respiratory Health: Offers relief from colds, acting as an expectorant, and may help with rhinitis, sinusitis, and throat/mouth infections.
• Genitourinary Health: May support women's health and address issues within the genitourinary system.
• Pain Relief: May provide relief from toothaches and headaches.
• Wound Healing: Possesses potential wound-healing properties for burns, cuts, ulcers, and skin conditions.

Traditional Uses & Preparations:

Dragon Head's above-ground parts (the herb) are used to create various remedies:

• Tea: Regular consumption of Dragon Head tea is recommended during cold and flu season as a preventative measure.
• Decoctions: Used for inhalations, particularly beneficial for bronchitis.
• Infusion: Helpful for calming nerves, reducing excitability, relieving physical fatigue, and easing severe headaches.
• Tincture (alcoholic extract): May help lower blood pressure gently.
• Internal Use (decoctions and infusions): Effective in treating various stomach and intestinal ailments, improving bile secretion, and regulating digestion (e.g., addressing diarrhea and constipation).
• External Use (decoctions): Sit baths are recommended for genitourinary infections (minimum 10 minutes per session). Douches with decoctions may support gynecological health. Mouth rinsing helps soothe toothaches and reduce inflammation. Compresses and poultices are used for joint pain, bruises, festering wounds, and non-healing ulcers.

Dosage and Recipes:

Infusion for Gastritis, Cystitis, and Kidney Issues:

Combine 3-4 tablespoons of fresh herb (or 2 tablespoons of dried herb/seeds) with 200ml of boiling water. Steep for 2-3 hours. Consume one-third of a cup three times daily before meals. This infusion may also improve blood composition, normalize gastrointestinal function, and raise blood pressure. Apply as compresses for slow-healing wounds or ulcers.

Decoction for Renal Colic:

Prepare similarly to the infusion (2 tablespoons dried herb per cup of water), but simmer the mixture in a water bath.

Tincture for Hypertension:

Combine 1 part dried root with 10 parts vodka or alcohol. Infuse in a cool, dark place for 15-30 days. Mix with water or take 35-40 drops before meals with water.

Individual intolerance. It's recommended to consult a healthcare professional before using Dragon Head, particularly if pregnant, breastfeeding, or have pre-existing health conditions. A minimum course of 5 packs is recommended for optimal results.
