Re: Eupatorium cannabinum, swine flu, PAs

Max,

Hedley was at Rutland recently and we were looking at one of

the other Eupatoria species growing here : Eupatorium perfoliatum, aptly

known as " feverwort " , or " sweating plant " It was introduced to American

colonists by native Americans who traditionally used the plant for

breaking fevers by means of heavy sweating. It's also known as " boneset "

due to its historical use in treating dengue fever, which is also known

as breakbone.

has summarised what he was saying about this plant, in

relation to a fascinating anecdotal result of its use in the great 'flu

outbreak of 1918.

We decided to make a high potency fresh fluid extract of this herb and

to make this available on a not-for-profit basis for the next six months

or so. There will be an announcement about that shortly, once it's

actually available in bottles.

With love to all,
