Deter Fleas and Open Bronchial Passages with this Potent Herb

This member of the mint family has been cultivated for centuries and its
merits have been written about by the likes of Pliny, Dioscorides and one of the
original botanists, Linnaeus.

There are two varieties of the herb, both an American and English version.
Though somewhat different in their appearance, both varieties offer similar
benefits.

Like most herbs, pennyroyal’s traditional uses range from easing headaches to
curing the common cold and was often cited by Anglo-Saxon and Welsh medical
books for its many applications.

Similar to other members of the mint family,the leaves are highly aromatic,
though not as sweet smelling as those of peppermint or spearmint. Often,
pennyroyal’s leaves are infused into a tea and studies show that the menthol
component (pulegone) in the leaves often act as an antihistamine and can help
clear nasal and bronchial passages.

Throughout history pennyroyal tea was used to quell digestive troubles,
reducing instances of flatulence in particular. It was also applied topically to
wounds, cold sores, eczema and other rash-like conditions.

One of its main uses, however, was to aid in female menstruation by helping
to induce delayed or irregular cycles. Because of its highly potent and often
unpredictable effects on the uterus, pregnant women need to use extreme caution
when ingesting the herb as it can easily lead to miscarriage.

Today, the herb needs to be used with care as there have been reported cases
of toxicity in high doses. When ingesting pennyroyal tea, special consideration
needs to be taken as to the dosage and should only be consumed for five days at
a time as it may have a toxic effect on the liver and other internal organs if
used for prolonged periods. A professional herbalist can prepare an herbal blend
that is safe to consume.

There are, however, other ways in which you (and your dog) can benefit from
this complex herb. Dried pennyroyal leaves are a proven flea deterrent. Sprinkle
them around your pet’s bedding or crates to keep the pests at bay. A few leaves
can also be wrapped


around Fido’s collar if you are going to be out hiking.


And keep a few stems handy yourself as they will keep the gnats from
swarming. You can also prepare an infusion to apply topically or sprinkle around
outdoor seating areas to allow for outdoor entertaining without the unwanted
guests. And pennyroyal will also keep your garden growing strong as it often
deters burrowing insects from attacking your beds.

HEALTH TIP: Back in 1922, a Canadian nurse
named Rene Caisse noticed some scar tissue on the breast of an elderly woman.
The woman told her that doctors had diagnosed her
with breast cancer years before. However, the woman didn’t want to risk surgery,
nor did she have the money for it. Providentially, she had met an Ojibway Indian
medicine man who told her that he could cure her cancer with an herbal tea. The
woman proceeded to tell Caisse about the ingredients in the tea. About a year
later, Caisse was walking beside a retired doctor who pointed to a common weed
and stated, “Nurse Caisse, if people would use this weed there would be little
or no cancer in the world.” This “weed” (sheep sorrel) was one of the herbs in
the medicine man’s formula. The doctor had watched his horse cure itself of
cancer by repeatedly grazing in a particular part of the pasture where sheep
sorrel grew. 

 

In 1924, Caisse wanted to test the tea on her aunt who had been diagnosed
with terminal stomach cancer and was given less than six months to live. Caisse
asked the physician, Dr. R. O. Fisher, for permission to try the tea on her
aunt, and he consented. Her aunt drank the herbal tea daily for two months and
recovered. Amazingly, she lived for 20 more years! Caisse also tested the tea on
her mother who had been diagnosed with terminal liver cancer and had been given
less than two months to live. Remarkably, her mother lived another 18 years!



What was in the tea? Well, technically, Essiac Tea is not a tea, rather it is
a decoction of herbs, since the herbs are boiled and then steeped for several
hours. In order to be true Essiac it must always contain the four essential
herbs: Burdock Root, Sheep Sorrel, Slippery Elm Bark, and Turkish Rhubarb Root.
She named the tea “ESSIAC” (which is Caisse spelled backwards). Essiac Tea is
now used all over the world by cancer patients who want to avoid chemo and
radiation. My own grandmother lived for over a decade with “terminal” cancer and
her primary daily treatment was Essiac tea.
