🌿 Organic Japanese Knotweed Tincture
Japanese Knotweed has become an important herb in my practice, especially here in Connecticut where tick exposure is a concern much of the year.
I use it as part of my own Lyme prevention approach, based on what I’ve learned from herbalists I’ve studied under over the years. One of the traditional uses I’ve been taught is that Knotweed can help make the blood a less appealing host to ticks.
Japanese Knotweed is also an important herb in Stephen Harrod Buhner’s Lyme protocols.
One of the things I find most fascinating about this plant is its high concentration of resveratrol. We usually think of red grapes, but Japanese Knotweed is one of the richest botanical sources.
