Actions: Adaptogen, Nervine, Immunomodulator, Anti-inflammatory, Antimicrobial, Antiviral, Carminative, Hypoglycemic, Antioxidant, Expectorant. Known to support stress resilience, mental clarity, and mood balance, this herb helps modulate stress hormone levels and supports adrenal function. It is also known to enhance immune response and regulate inflammation, making it useful in cough, asthma, and bronchitis due to its expectorant and antimicrobial effects. Additionally, it soothes gas, cramping, and nausea, while mildly supporting blood sugar balance and cholesterol regulation.*
Caution: Use with caution in individuals taking hypoglycemic or immunomodulatory medications, as this herb may enhance their effects. It can be overly stimulating for those with hot, dry constitutions unless balanced with cooling, moistening herbs. The essential oil is potent and should always be diluted before use. The herb is generally gentler and better suited for long-term support.*
