Bugleweed
Bugleweed does its work by inhibiting the action of thyroid hormones and
the reproductive hormones associated with the menstrual cycle. It also
reduces levels of prolactin, the hormone that triggers breast milk
production.
The herb is a creeping perennial that grows to about
2 feet in height and has a mint-like smell. It was discovered on the banks
of streams in Virginia, but now grows throughout North America. A closely
related plant called Gypsywort is found in Europe. Bugleweed's medicinal
value lies in its fresh or dried above-ground parts collected during the
flowering season.
Directions
Take 20-30 drops of extract in a small amount of warm water 3-4 times daily as needed.
I've been giving it to two of my kitties that were recently diagnosed with Hyperthyroidism. My vet is suprised how low of a medication dose they need to bring lab values to normal. (I am hoping we might eventually be off meds or an even lower dose). Because it is alcohol free it is safe for pets.
