Cherry Bark Tincture

Cherry Bark Tincture

A concentrated herbal extract of cherry bark. Plant tinctures have long been used as herbal remedies. Some plants have proven health benefits, while the effects of others are less clear, and may even be harmful to your health.

Traditionally, Cherry Bark has been used to treat painful dry coughs, especially those associated with whopping cough and bronchitis, as well as gout, diarrhea, dysentery, and gastrointestinal complaints, like IBS, due to its potent astringent properties. It was introduced to European settlers through indigenous tribes and quickly became a widespread remedy due to its respiratory, digestive and mildly sedating muscle relaxing qualities.

Recommendation: Take 5-15 drops in a glass of water, juice, or tea.  Do not exceed more than 3 times daily or take for longer than 3-4 days.
