Goldenrod~ Fresh Dried Flowers and Leaves

Description: Goldenrod is back! I harvest it while the flowers are still young so they will not go to seed after drying. Goldenrod (Solidago) is often confused with ragweed.The Latin name Solidago means “to make whole”. Many people believe they are allergic to goldenrod. Because Solidago is insect pollinated, it’s pollen is too heavy and sticky to be carried by the wind. Most likely ragweed pollen is the reason for people’s allergic reactions. Goldenrod Medicinal Uses* Goldenrod as a Sinus Remedy: Goldenrod is a premier decongestant, effectively alleviating upper respiratory congestion stemming from allergies, sinusitis, flu, or the common cold. It can be taken as a tea, syrup, or tincture for this purpose. In my experience, it is one of the strongest herbs for drying the sinuses. Goldenrod as Urinary Tract Remedy: Goldenrod also has an affinity for the urinary tract and is used as a diuretic, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory as a remedy for urinary tract infections. For urinary tract infections. The diuretic quality of goldenrod may also help to relieve edema, gout, and kidney stones. Goldenrod as a Wound Remedy: Goldenrod is used by Native American peoples—and was adopted by European settlers—as a wash or poultice to help heal wounds, burns, open sores, and cuts. Goldenrod as a Digestive Remedy: Internally, many species of goldenrod have been used to quell diarrhea—likely because of their tannins and antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory actions. Solidago species are typically bitter, warming, and pungent, which makes them useful carminative herbs for stimulating and improving digestion. 7.McIntyre, A.
