Dog Grass Root is also known by the names Witch Grass, Couch Grass, and Twitch Grass. The parts of this plant used medicinally are the rhizome, root, and seeds. The plant is a native of Europe, Asia and North America. The genus name is derived from "agros," meaning "field," and "puros," meaning "wheat."
Dog Grass Root is recommended as a support treatment for gout. Dog Grass Root was an official plant in the Indian and Colonial Addendum of the British Pharmacopoeia for use in the Australasian, Eastern and North American Colonies, where it was much employed. Dog Grass Root may be used effectively in urinary infections such as cystitis, urethritis and prostatitis. Its demulcent properties help soothe irritation and inflammation. It is also useful in the treatment of enlarged prostate glands. Dog Grass Root may also be used in cases of kidney stones and gravel. As a tonic diuretic, Dog Grass Root has been used with other herbs in the treatment of rheumatism. For urinary tract infections, this herb has been used effectively with Buchu Leaf, Bearberry, and Yarrow. It has also been combined with Hydrangea for the treatment of prostate problems. Juice from the root has been used to treat jaundice and liver ailments - its high mucilage content makes it soothing to mucus membranes. Eczema is also aided by the use of Dog Grass Root.
