Get to know Calendula 🌼
One of our favorite herbs for skin healing, lymphatic and detox support.
Most people know that that calendula is used to soothe irritated skin, support wound healing, and calm inflammation but thats just the beginning of its magic!
Calendula is also known for its anti-fungal and anti-microbial properties and is commonly used for rashes, burns, scrapes, insect bites, eczema, and any sort of redness and irritation.
Internally, calendula is used to support and soothe the digestive tract, especially in cases of irritation and inflammation. It is used for heartburn, peptic ulcers, GERD, and overall gut healing.
Calendula is also highly valued as a lymphagogue- an herb that moves stagnant lymph, decreasing swollen lymph nodes and helping to reduce fluid retention.
Calendula has an alterative action which means it opens up the channels of elimination and helps the bowels, skin, liver, lungs and kidneys to clear out toxins and damp heat.
