Health Benefits

In the Balkans, Yarrow is famous as a ‘warrior herb’, since it was heavily used to heal the wounds in the battlefield. But this commonly found plant has a whole treasure of benefits that can help your every day life:

Wound Healing

Digestive health

Anti-inflammatory Properties

Heart and blood tonic

Anxiety relief

Respiratory health & cold/flu

Menstrual health

Mastitis

Urinary Infections

Antiseptic

Reduces Scarring

Blood-clotting

Natural repellent

Wound Healing

Yarrow is a very useful medicinal herb and it is best knows for its wound healing properties. The chemical compound achilliene found in yarrow is responsible for its healing power. It stops the bleeding, makes the skin close, fights bacteria and helps the tissue heal. Its anti-inflammatory action will reduce swelling and heal inflamed cuts or wounds as well as reduce the pain. Make a strong batch of tea, drink it or rinse the wound with it, or do the same with the tincture to help your skin heal and be healthy!

Digestive Health

Yarrow acts as a soothing relaxant on the nervous system. It counteracts cramps and spasm of the stomach, abdomen and uterine system.
It is helpful with conditions such as leaky gut, stomach flu, nausea, vomiting, gastritis, diarrhea, flatulence, stomach cramps, lack of appetite, bloating and hemorrhoids.

A cup of tea helps with indigestion or heartburn, as this tea promotes bile production that stimulates digestion, preventing food from staying in your stomach too long and causing pain. It is the bitter components of this tea that are said to get your stomach to work better and faster.

By stimulating the production of digestive juices and bile, you are also helping to prevent the formation of gallstones thus keeping your gallbladder and liver happy and healthy.

Anti-inflammatory Properties

Inflammation is the root cause of many health problems and traditional herbal practices in China, Europe and India have used yarrow to calm inflammation for a variety of health issues. Yarrow contains compounds that calm inflammation and thus help with treating many illnesses such as a sore throat, arthritis, rheumatism, respiratory issues, bladder infections (and infections of any kind) and stomach-aches.

Heart

and blood tonic

Research has found that the regular use of yarrow can help to modulate blood pressure, which can lower your risk of atherosclerosis, heart attacks, strokes, coronary heart diseases as well as reducing the risk of blood clots that could cause serious heart complications and varicose veins.

Drinking this plant improves the blood flow, by purifying the blood of toxins and bacteria as well as boosting circulation where there are possible situations of stagnation. Yarrow tea also serves as a heart tonic which means it is used to help restore, tone and invigorate cardiovascular systems in the body and to promote general health and well-being.

Because it helps strengthen and dilate the blood vessels it is indicated for high blood pressure and angina pectoris.

Anxiety relief

Since ancient times, this herb has been used to lower stress hormones and give you a feeling of calmness in the body and mind. A research even showed that it has similar effects to those of diazepam (Valium) without the negative side-effects. If you are looking for a natural way to relax, fall asleep and have a rejuvenating night, have a cup of yarrow tea before bed, or add some other herbs with similar benefits to it, like valerian, lemon balm, lavender or chamomile.

Respiratory health & cold/flu

Yarrow is great when the first symptoms of a cold or the flu set in. It can help clear up mucus and relieve congestion, allowing you to breathe better while soothing a sore throat and strengthening your lungs.

Drinking this tea when you have a fever will help to promote natural sweating and thus could break the fever in a safer and healthier way. Sweating is a way that the body has of expelling the microbes and bacteria.
So – have a hot cup of tea and stay under a warm blanket.
A cup of this herbal tea is also helpful when you are suffering from allergies or hay fever. It helps dry up your nasal passageways, which can be quite a relief when you have been sneezing all day because of dust or pollen.

Its calming and antispasmodic nature helps to bring relief to asthma attacks and it helps reduce their severity.

Menstrual health

Yarrow is a traditional women’s herb, used to ease menstruation. It increases the blood flow in the pelvic area, thus helping with all kinds of problems – from PMS symptoms and painful cramps, to late or irregular menstruation or overabundant blood flow.

Mastitis

If your breasts are producing too much milk, to the point where the condition is painful, topical or oral ingestion of this herb is known to clear up the symptoms.

Urinary Infections

Yarrow also supports the urinary system and is an effective anti-inflammatory and diuretic (helps increase urine production) in cases of urinary infections, such as cystitis.

Antiseptic

Yarrow is the most powerful antiseptic known to man – it is a natural disinfectant and its medicinal properties for fighting infections are unmatched by any other conventional remedy in the market.

Not only does it heal external wounds it also prevents internal infections as it contains antimicrobial properties. Yarrow activates the blood in the affected area, which forms a protective layer to keep the body safe from infection-causing bacteria.
Yarrow has such potent antiseptic effects that it kills the bacteria completely when applied to a wound.

Reduces Scarring

Yarrow is prized by the cosmetic industry as it has excellent scar removal properties. It not only speeds up the healing process but also reduces the appearance of scars. There are many ways yarrow can be used to heal scars, either by oral consumption or by using it in your skincare routines. Its anti-inflammatory properties also calm the irritation and redness surrounding the wounds.

Blood-Clotting

When used in moderation, this herb is able to stimulate blood-clotting, making it quite valuable for acute injuries; however, in excess, this herb can act as a blood-thinner in the body, so caution should be taken.

Natural repellent

Yarrow is an excellent natural repellent. The US Army found that the pure yarrow tincture works as well as DEET for repelling mosquitoes, although for a shorter time. Still, given the fact that DEET is highly toxic and has been known to cause seizures in young children even at low potency, a natural way to get rid of those pesky insects is a smart solution, even if you have to spray a few more times. To use it as a repellent, simply spray the tincture on the exposed skin, or add some flowers or the tincture of lavender, lemon balm or rosemary to add to it potency and smell!

Yarrow is one of the most wide-spread plants on our planet, with as many types, uses and folklore stories connected to it.
It has many names, as it is equally found in Europe, North America, Turkey and China. Yarrow was even found to date back to the Neanderthals, over 60,000 years ago. Our ancestors used yarrow as a medicinal herb to treat minor wounds, stop bleeding and inflammation.

The Latin name for yarrow is Achillea millefolium, named after the Greek hero Achilles. Not commonly known, he was also described as a great student of the healing arts and yarrow was his special ally. He used it to staunch the wounds of his fellow soldiers, which is how yarrow became known as ‘Militaris‘. Throughout the history, it was mostly known as a soldier’s helper, due to it’s abilities to stop the bleeding, disinfect and heal wounds.

Yarrow has been a part of divination rituals for many centuries, and herbalists in Western Europe have been using yarrow as part of healing practices and believe that it facilitates the healing by restraining the flow of blood to a wound.The ancient oracle of the I Ching is traditionally cast with yarrow stalks which are thought to represent the Yin and Yang forces of the Universe in perfect balance. In terms of Chinese medicine, Achillea can be said to have three main actions: clear Exterior Wind (diaphoretic), Tonify Deficiency (tonic) and clear Heart Phlegm (anti-hypertention).

In Ireland, bridesmaids would carry it to weddings for seven years of love. Yarrow is a plant of St. John and the it is hung in houses on St. John’s Eve (June 23rd) to ward away illness. Remnants of yarrow has also been found in fossils from old burial caves . In Sweden, it is known as ‘field hop’ because it has been used to create beer.

Yarrow can be found in waste areas, edges of railway tracks, lawns, grassy areas, old fields, along fence lines, roadsides, and other edges as it is a strong and durable plant, so it is probable that you have seen this amazing, versatile plant and passed it many times, even in cities!
