HOME REMEDIES: FLEAWORT

 

 St Hildegard writes:

"When God created man, a different type of earth was used to form him. Henceforth, all substances were subject to man, because they sensed that in him was life, and they endeavoured to aid him in him in all his efforts, and man's aim, in turn, was to help them."


FLEAWORT (PLANTAGO PSYLLIUM)

Fleawort is of a cold nature; but along with the cold has a pleasant temperament. 

Boiled in wine and drunk warm it SOOTHES FEVER, brightens the spirit of man and STRENGTHENS THE BRAIN

Placed on the stomach in a warm bandage, it eliminates STOMACH FEVER.

(From: St Hildegard of Bingen, Physica)
