Black Currant is an herbal medicine used along with other medicines in the treatment of arthritis and to stimulate the immune system. Black Currant is a good source of minerals and vitamins, especially vitamin C. They have diuretic, cleansing, diaphoretic and febrifuge actions, help to increase bodily resistance to infections and are a valuable remedy for treating colds and flu. By encouraging the elimination of fluids the leaves help to reduce blood volume and thereby lower blood pressure.
