Wild Teasel Alcohol-Free Tincture (1:4) Wild Teasel (Dipsacus fullonum) tincture – made from the ground root What is Wild Teasel? (Dipsacus fullonum) Although wild teasel, with its spiny flower heads, strongly resembles a thistle, botanically it belongs to a completely different plant family. Its name comes from the Greek word “dipsa,” meaning “thirst.” Wild teasel can indeed quench the thirst of animals and humans by collecting rainwater in its funnel-shaped leaves and carefully storing it. The name “wild teasel” has medieval origins. At that time, the dried flower heads were harvested and used for combing wool, a process known as “carding.” This biennial plant can grow up to two meters high and is found throughout Europe, Asia, and North Africa. In its first year, it forms a rosette of leaves, and in the second year, a spiny stem with upright flower heads up to 8 cm long. The tiny violet flowers do not bloom all at once but rather in circular patterns, reminiscent of ring-shaped skin rashes. We place great importance on sustainability and use only teasel roots that meet our strict quality standards to support both human health and the environment. Wild Teasel and Folk Medicine In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), wild teasel root has been successfully used for over 2,000 years. Practitioners classify the root as cooling and associate it with the liver and kidney meridians. This cooling property is believed to help dispel heat from the body and address underlying imbalances. As a result, wild teasel is traditionally used to support the immune system and to treat skin-related concerns. According to TCM, teasel is also valued for dispelling “wind, cold, and dampness,” which are thought to contribute to joint discomfort. Experienced practitioners recommend teasel to help relieve such issues. Furthermore, ethnobotanist Dr. Wolf-Dieter Storl has noted its potential supportive role in Lyme disease. In medieval Europe, the so-called “doctrine of signatures” suggested that the appearance of a plant could reveal its medicinal uses. Interestingly, the circular blooming pattern of teasel flowers resembles the ring-shaped rash associated with Lyme disease. What’s inside? Not all valuable compounds of wild teasel have been fully researched. However, it is now known that the plant contains: Bitter compounds – stimulate the production of digestive juices Saponins – considered anti-inflammatory, supportive of the immune system, and protective of the cardiovascular system Phenols – highly effective antioxidants that may slow the aging process and help reduce inflammation Wild Teasel Glycerin Tincture without harmful additives This dietary supplement contains no artificial coloring, no flavorings, no added sugar, no lactose, and no gluten.

Wormwood Tincture (1:4) What is Wormwood (Artemisia absinthium)? Most people associate the word “wormwood” with absinthe. In fact, this strong alcoholic spirit is also distilled from the medicinal plant. Yet Artemisia absinthium has a long tradition of use for a wide range of medicinal purposes. Wormwood is originally native to the Eastern Mediterranean, Europe, and Asia. The herb prefers roadsides and walls, but it also thrives along streams and rivers. Wormwood has very specific requirements for its environment: if the soil is rich in lime and nutrients, the plant can reach a height of up to one meter. This bushy semi-shrub with its pale yellow blossoms has fascinated people for thousands of years, mainly because of its heavenly fragrance. As temperatures rise, the tiny oil glands open and release the plant’s aromatic essential oils. For the production of our tinctures, we use only the aerial parts of the herb, as they have been shown to contain the highest concentration of bitter substances. As always with Phönix der Lebenskraft, we place great emphasis on absolute purity and sustainability of our raw materials. The versatility of Artemisia absinthium It is not only the unique fragrance that has enchanted humanity for thousands of years, but also the remarkable versatility of wormwood. With its high content of essential oils and bitter substances, Artemisia absinthium was already considered one of the most important plants in ancient Egypt. Records from around 1600 BC describe its special powers and report that it was successfully used at that time for poisoning, paralysis, and eye inflammations. Hildegard of Bingen also considered wormwood one of the most powerful medicinal plants, mainly because of its high content of bitter substances. In folk medicine, these were valued as particularly beneficial for the stomach, gallbladder, and liver. Bitter substances stimulate digestion by increasing the production of gastric and bile juices. For this reason, Hildegard recommended wormwood for loss of appetite, bloating, flatulence, and other digestive complaints.

Teasel Tincture (1:4) Wild Teasel (Dipsacus fullonum) tincture made from the ground root What is Wild Teasel? (Dipsacus fullonum) Although wild teasel, with its spiny flower heads, strongly resembles a thistle, botanically it belongs to a completely different plant family. Its botanical name comes from the Greek word “dipsa,” meaning “thirst.” Wild teasel can actually quench the thirst of animals and humans by collecting rainwater in its funnel-shaped leaves and carefully storing it for wildlife and travelers alike. The name “wild teasel” also has medieval origins. At that time, the dried flower heads were harvested and used to comb wool before spinning – a process known as “carding.” This biennial plant can reach a height of up to two meters and is found in many parts of Europe, Asia, and North Africa. In its first year, it produces only a rosette of leaves. In the second year, a spiny stem emerges, bearing upright flower heads that can reach up to 8 cm in length. At first glance, the blooms may appear unimpressive, as the tiny violet flowers never open all at once. Instead, they bloom in circular patterns, creating a moving ring across the flower head – reminiscent of migrating circular skin patterns in humans. We care equally about the health of people and the environment. That is why we emphasize sustainability and process only teasel roots that meet our high quality standards. Wild Teasel in Folk Medicine In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), wild teasel has been successfully used for more than 2,000 years. According to experienced practitioners, the root is classified as cooling and associated with the liver and kidney meridians.

Teasel is therefore used to support the immune system and for skin-related concerns. In addition, TCM values teasel for dispelling “wind, cold, and dampness,” which are believed to contribute to joint discomfort. According to skilled practitioners, teasel may help provide relief in such cases. It is also said to influence Qi, the body’s vital energy, by harmonizing digestive juices. According to ethnobotanist Dr. Wolf-Dieter Storl, wild teasel is not only a healing plant but could even be seen as a “magical plant” due to its potential supportive role in Lyme disease. In the Middle Ages, people relied on the so-called doctrine of signatures, which suggested that the appearance of a plant could indicate its medicinal use. In this context, the circular blooming pattern of teasel flowers resembles the ring-shaped rash characteristic of Lyme disease. What’s inside?

The name “wild teasel” also originates from medieval times, when the dried flower heads were harvested and used for combing wool before spinning. This process was known as “carding.” The plant, which can grow up to two meters tall, is native to many parts of Europe, Asia, and North Africa.

Most people immediately think of absinthe when they hear the word “wormwood.” Indeed, the strong spirit is distilled from the Artemisia absinthium plant. But this medicinal herb has a long history of use for a wide range of traditional purposes. Wormwood originally comes from the Eastern Mediterranean, Europe, and Asia. It thrives along paths, near walls, and alongside rivers and streams. Wormwood requires specific conditions: it grows best in calcareous, nutrient-rich soil and can reach up to one meter in height.

Juniper Tincture (1:4) Juniper (Juniperi communis fructus) tincture made from dried berries What is Juniper Tincture (Juniperus communis fructus)? Many people know juniper only as a spice used in sauerkraut and game dishes. But did you know that juniper berries have much more to offer than just making food more digestible? The ancient Greeks and Romans already recognized the healing potential of juniper berries. Strictly speaking, the bluish-black fruits are not berries at all, but cones. They grow on the juniper shrub or tree. This cypress family plant, with its sharp needles, can reach a height of up to 12 meters and live for as long as 600 years! Juniperus communis is found in North America, Europe, and northern Asia, preferring light coniferous forests, heaths, and moors. For the production of our tincture, we follow the knowledge of traditional folk medicine. Accordingly, we use only juniper berries, which are carefully selected according to strict quality criteria, gently dried, and extracted with alcohol. The result is a tincture that meets our high standards of quality. What folk medicine in antiquity already knew… The ancient Greeks and Romans believed that juniper was more than just a spice. They mainly used the berries in folk medicine of their time. Juniperus was especially valued for digestive complaints such as nausea, bloating, heartburn, upper abdominal pain, and vomiting. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has preserved this knowledge to this day. In addition, juniper is also used in the Far East to strengthen the kidneys and bladder. According to TCM, juniper is warming and drying. As a so-called Yang tonic, it is said to drive out cold and dampness, which manifest in kidney, bladder, and lung issues as well as sadness and colds. Juniperus communis contains valuable constituents such as:Tannins, flavonoids, invert sugars, essential oils (alpha-pinene, sabinene, myrcene, and terpinene)   Juniper tincture without questionable additives This dietary supplement contains no artificial colors, no flavorings, no added sugar, no lactose, no gluten.

Frankincense Tincture (1:4) Frankincense (Boswellia serrata) tincture made from resin What is Frankincense Tincture (Boswellia serrata)? Most people associate frankincense with its unique fragrance, which comes from this special resin. However, olibanum, as it is also called, is much more than a ritual incense. Frankincense has been used in Indian Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for more than 5,000 years in a variety of ways. Olibanum is obtained from Boswellia trees, which can grow up to 8 meters high. These balsam trees are mainly found in arid regions of Somalia, Oman, and Yemen. Harvesting the valuable resin takes several months. To do so, the trees are carefully incised until a sticky fluid emerges. These so-called “tears” are carefully collected and air-dried. To protect the trees, only small amounts are harvested at a time, which is why the process takes so long. For the production of our tincture, we use olibanum from the species Boswellia serrata. The use of this type of frankincense has a long tradition and is well established. Naturally, we ensure that the frankincense is harvested gently and under strict conditions. A healing plant with thousands of years of tradition Frankincense has a history of more than 5,000 years of use. Not only Ayurveda and TCM make use of olibanum in many ways; in European natural medicine, frankincense also played an important role for centuries. The ancient Egyptians already used it for wound care. For Hippocrates, frankincense was a powerful remedy for digestive problems, coughs, and colds. Hildegard of Bingen used frankincense specifically for muscle and joint pain. In Indian Ayurveda, this ancient knowledge has not been forgotten. Here, frankincense is considered important support for joint pain, inflammation, intestinal problems, hoarseness, coughs, and colds. In TCM, olibanum is considered the first remedy of choice to expel heat and dampness from the body. Frankincense is associated with the functional systems of the liver, gallbladder, heart, lungs, and intestines, and is prescribed for imbalances within these systems. According to Far Eastern belief, skin problems are always linked to imbalances in the liver and intestines. Therefore, experienced practitioners also prescribe frankincense for itching, rashes, and related issues. Boswellia serrata contains valuable active constituents such as:Essential oils (alpha-pinene, alpha-thujene, sabinene, limonene, and myrcene) Frankincense tincture without questionable additives This dietary supplement contains no artificial colors, no flavorings, no added sugar, no lactose, no gluten.
