Description

Boneset tincture is a traditional herbal extract used primarily to relieve symptoms of the common cold, the flu, and upper respiratory infections. Herbalists often use it to reduce fevers by promoting sweating and to soothe the deep muscle aches and joint pain associated with illness.

Boneset (Eupatorium perfoliatum) is rich in active compounds like sesquiterpene lactones and flavonoids, which support a healthy immune and inflammatory response. Its specific uses and benefits include:

• Cold and Flu Support: It is historically known as a “fever-breaker” and is commonly taken during the early onset of viral illnesses.
• Pain and Aches: The name “boneset” originates from its traditional use in Native American and early American folk medicine to treat intense illnesses accompanied by deep, aching bone and muscle pain.
• Digestive Aid: Because it is a highly bitter herb, boneset tincture can stimulate digestive enzymes, making it a traditional choice for mild indigestion, sluggish metabolism, and bloating.
