Boldo
Boldo leaf is native to the Andean regions of Chile and Peru and is
currently cultivated in Morocco for the distribution to North American and
European markets. Boldo leaf has been used, medicinally, in South America
in the treatment of liver ailments, such as hepatitis and jaundice.
Historically, boldo has been used for a wide variety of disorders from
intestinal problems to gonorrhea, but it has principally played a role in
the treatment of disorders involving the liver, gallbladder, and
gastrointestinal tract. The German Commission E has approved the use of
boldo for the treatment of dyspepsia (discomfort of upper GI tract) as
well as for stomach and intestinal cramps.
Directions
Fresh drawn, boiling water contains the most oxygen, thereby giving the fullest taste to tea. Water that has been boiling for some time looses the oxygen and thereby the best taste.
Allow full expansion during the infusion and easy removal after the time for steeping has elapsed.
Draw into a tea pot or kettle the best fresh water that you have available.
Warm the teapot and cups while the water is boiling.
Cautions
Do not use if you have a kidney disorder, as Boldo Leaf can cause kidney irritation.
Not intended for use by nursing or pregnant women, those with an obstruction of the liver bile duct, or severe liver disease.
Excessive use of Boldo Leaf over a long period of time (3-4 weeks continuously) is not recommended.
