This is a powerful tonic for disorders assimilation; it effectively tones the debilitated mucous membranes and any other tissues it contacts, increases and improves the appetite, gastric secretions and flow of bile, and aids in digestion. In some cases, it is laxative, but without astringency. It is particularly effective as a uterine hemostatic, and it is one of the very few agents that will tone and sustain venous circulation. Its therapeutic action ranks somewhere between Turkey rhubarb and bloodroot. The root was so-named by the Thomsonians, who employed it extensively during the early part of the nineteenth century in the United States.
A small perennial, with a thick knotty, bright yellow root-stock that sends up a hairy stem, I foot high. Two palmately, 5-lobed, serrate leaves grow near the top with one solitary radical leaf on a long foot stalk about 9 inches across. The stem is topped by a small, solitary, flower with greenish-white sepals that fall away when the flower opens. The fruit resembles a raspberry, and consists of fused, 2- seeded drupes. It grows in the shady woods of eastern U.S. and is scarce today. Now cultivated for its medicinal purposes throughout the U.S.
It is a antiseptic, astringent, diuretic, laxative, and tonic. The prepared root is historically used for mouth and skin disorders, stomach ailments, nausea, and in combination with capsicum as a remedy for chronic alcoholism. It is a strong tonic for the mucus membranes. Historically used for liver problems, uterus and venous circulation, a mouth wash, eye wash, vaginal douche and for external skin diseases. It can also relieve stomach ailments, nausea during pregnancy and for a laxative. Steep 1 teaspoon of the powdered root to 2 cups boiling water, let stand till cool.
