Pike Herb Company Where Fresh Herbs Make The Best Medicine

Stinging Nettle

Stinging nettle is one of our most valuable medicinal herbs. It is a powerful antihistamine, and is a great remedy for respiratory ailments including asthma.

Stinging nettle has been used for hundreds of years to treat rheumatism (disorders of the muscles and joints), eczema, arthritis, gout, and anemia. Nettle is rich in the mineral baron, which The Rheumatoid Disease Foundation suggests may be helpful in treating arthritis.

Stinging nettle is also one of the best blood cleansing and blood building herbs. It is often used as a spring tonic, revitalizing the body after a long cold winter.
