Plantain Leaf Helps Those With Bronchitis

You’ve got to hate it when you find out that you went to a lot of trouble to kill a weed in your yard only to learn it was a goldmine of healing powers! Plantain is just such a weed. Unless it is winter, it is probably growing in your lawn right now. There are 200 species of plantain. You will recognize it by its cluster of rounded leaves with nubby spikes rising vertically from the midst.

In time last, plantain was used to heal the bites of “mad dogs, snakes, and venomous creatures.” In North America, Native Americans used plantain in the same way. For example, in colonial America a slave could win his freedom if he taught his master how to use plantain to cure rattlesnake bite. An article written in 1710 listed many plantain leaf benefits. Reading it, one wonders if this was not the medicine man’s secret brew that could heal anything!

How did they apply it? They took a few fresh leaves, crushed or chewed them, and applied them to a bleeding wound. Or they would use it to alleviate the pain and inflammation of bites and stings. Plantain can also be used this way to treat a wide range of skin disorders, including eczema, dandruff, or sunburn. Plantain is like a First Aid ointment growing right in your lawn! The leaf will also relieve the pain of a toothache by chewing on it. A cup of strong plantain tea will calm indigestion. In Europe they have confirmed that plantain is a valid treatment for sore throat, bronchitis, and cold symptoms.

Today, plantain has been acclaimed for its ability to relieve the effects of bee stings, insect and spider bites, and rashes caused by Poison Ivy or Stinging Nettles. Plantain, Jewelweed, and Hound’s Tongue are all called by Dr. Christopher “Nature’s erasers.” “Stand anywhere within sight of Poison Ivy, and look about. You will always see at least one of these plants, placed by the hand of God to come to your aid, if you should need it.” The fiber and mucilage from the seeds of the Plantago species are a primary source of fiber for millions of people worldwide. Plantain will also protect the body against tumors and help resist damage to the liver resulting from chemotherapy drugs.

Many commercial cosmetic creams and lotions list as an active ingredient a substance called allantoin that is found in plantain leaves. It speeds wound healing, kills germs, and stimulates the growth of new skin cells.

Plantain heals on contact. Therefore it is essential for emergency situations such as stopping itching and/or bleeding, reducing inflammation, killing infection, etc. Along with cayenne, and comfrey, plantain should be kept close at hand in case of physical injuries.

Try this: make a simple ointment with olive oil, extract of fresh plantain, and a little beeswax. Apply this to skin ailments, including diaper rash. You can rub fresh plantain leaves right onto the skin to treat bug bites, eczema, poison ivy, or other minor skin irritations. Another method is to make a soothing poultice of fresh, mashed leaves and a little cool water. This will sooth sunburn. You can purchase plantain as a liquid extract and in capsule form also. For bronchial symptoms the usual dosage is one teaspoon of liquid extract three times a day, or six grams in capsules per day.

The good news is that plantain is not only good for you, but it is also safe to take. Though consuming extremely large amounts could cause diarrhea, skin rash, or other allergic reaction, there have been no toxic reactions reported with the normal use of plantain. However, it is very critical to store plantain in a dark, dry, and cool place. Refrigerating or freezing it is recommended but not necessary. By keeping it cool, you will delay the decay of its highly valued properties.
