Frosty Plantain and Winter Immunity
Plantago lancelata (slim leaved plantain) is still in leaf. Its one of our premier immune herbs and it couldn’t look more unassuming if it tried! It’s an incredibly versatile and multidimensional plant overall and this includes a wide range of immune abilities/strategies.
It’s an immunomodulatory herb which simply put helps normalise immune function. It is generally antimicrobial and additionally acts as a natural antihistamine.
Due to containing allantoin (like aloe vera), it can increase healthy cell growth eg repair skin, tissue etc helping wounds repair on many levels.
Its sibling, Plantago major (broad-leaved plantain) has all the same medicinal attributes.
