This little weed pops up in gardens, on lawns and even in driveway cracks. Those bushy green leaves and small, stalk-like buds are part of the miraculous plantain. Plantain is one of the most medicinally powerful “nuisance” plants. For hundreds of years, plantain has been used as one of nature’s most powerful medicines, and for very good reason.
Its unique nutritive potential could help you clear up skin can, overcome difficult menstrual cycles and even treat painful arthritis.
Aid in Healthy Digestion:
Plantain is your cure in case of constant digestive problems due to antibiotics, food allergies or genetically modified organisms (GMOs). The leaves and seeds of the plant are believed to aid in reducing inflammation and help repair damage to the gut lining.
When steeped, plantain leaves can be turned into an extract for use as a gut healer. The seeds of plantain are also beneficial in maintaining a clean digestive tract, acting similarly to psyllium husk in absorbing toxins and creating firmer stools.
