Skullcap Tincture

Skullcap (Scutellaria laterifloria) is a member of the mint family with purple flowers that bloom in late summer. The predominant taste is bitter with an affinity for the digestive and nervous system. Skullcap can strengthen and restore the nervous system and damaged nervous tissue while helping the body shift into the parasympathetic state where we can effectively rest and digest our food.
Skullcap is also a moderate hypnotic nervine meaning it helps to relax the nervous system and promote nourishing sleep through its volatile oil content and flavonoids such as baeceilin. It also assists in relaxing the autonomic nervous system which promotes muscle relaxation and dilates the blood vessels to let blood flow with more ease. Skullcap can help to ease headaches related to constriction of blood vessels. This is also a great remedy for those experiencing stress, anxiety, and insomnia coupled with tension in the body and muscles. The dosage of this tincture is 1 teaspoon 3 up to 3 times per day.
