Motherwort Products

Motherwort is indigenous to the British Isles and is an herb that has a long and esteemed history as a heart tonic. Traditional Chinese Medicine also holds many of the same attributes for Motherwort with the addition of giving it the power to give long life. Being a traditional herbal remedy of the British Isles Indigo Herbs has included Motherwort in the form of an herbal tincture and an herbal loose leaf tea for all to enjoy.

The ancient Greeks regarded this plant as the best  herb that could be administered to women during childbirth. Beating stress and anxiousness, Motherwort was used to reduce nervous tension giving women a better chance of survival. Nicholas Culpepper emphasised Motherwort as being great for all conditions of the heart giving it restorative abilities for curing loneliness and heartbreak. Traditional Chinese Medicine gives many of the same attributes mentioning also that Motherwort is very good for increasing longevity. There is even a Motherwort legend telling of a village with a stream running through it. The banks of the stream were lined with Motherwort plants which gave the people of the village abnormal length of life. The average life span was 130 years old with the oldest village resident reaching 300 years of age.

The Latin name for Motherwort ‘Leonurus cardiaca’ refers both to the look of the plant and its medical abilities in aiding the heart. Leonurus means ‘lions tail’ which relates to the flowering spears of pink blooms which can make Motherwort reach heights of around 5 feet tall. The leaves are a distinctive part with a three pronged shape that looks a little like a ducks foot in the early stages. As the leaf ages they become more serrated and large. The plant has an overall fleshy appearance with many white hairs covering the whole surface area of the leaves and stems.

Making a delicious cup of tea with loose leaf herbs is simple and easy. Brewing loose leaves is a traditional art with many different styles and varying items of tea brewing equipment on the market. There are one cup teaballs that can be filled with loose leaves, flowers, and barks and submerged straight into a boiling cup of hot water and then left to infuse. The rule of thumb with brewing loose leaves is to allow them to fully release their beneficial aromatic phyto-chemical content.

This process is lovingly called brewing and takes 5-10 minutes so a tea cosy is recommended if you are using a pot. When making a pot of tea it is advised that you use one teaspoon of loose leaf tea per person and one for the pot. Any true tea maker who truly appreciates the art would recommend heating the pot first, and of course when the tea is fully infused it is absolutely necessary that the drinker sits down and takes a minute to enjoy! For full instructions go to our How to make Herbal Tea Page.

Grab a teapot, a cafetiere or your tea making equipment of choice. The botanical ingredients can be made into an herbal tea by infusing the herb in boiling water. Use 1 cup of boiling water per person. Let the tea brew for 5 - 15 minutes. Strain and enjoy.

Serving:

Take 1-2 teaspoons of the herb per cup of boiling hot water

1 teaspoon equals 1 gram (1 tsp = 1g)
  • Produced to GMP standards.
  • Quality Assured by Indigo Herbs.
  • Suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
  • Re-sealable air tight, foil pouch.
  • 100% pure botanical ingredients, absolutely nothing added.

Manufacture Process

Indigo Herbs Motherwort loose Tea comes from plants that are grown for the specific use as tea. All plants are grown under supervision and soil checked regularly for heavy metals and toxins. When this perennial is at peak maturity the leaves and small stems are separated from the root and air dried in the shade so none of the chemical constituents are destroyed by the sun. The leaf cut is then tested again for any pollutants before being shipped. This process complies with GMP standards and has the Indigo Herbs seal of approval.

100% Pure Leonurus cardiaca dried leaf & small stem

Not recommended for people taking anticoagulants- blood thinners, aspirin, garlic, willow bark, vitamin E in supplement form, or people with clotting disorders

Taking herbs in a Tincture or Fluid extract preparation is simple and easy. The tincture can be measured out in a small ml measuring cup, medicine cup or spoon, and the tincture can be taken directly.

However some people do find the bitter tincture taste to be too strong, so it may be a good idea to dilute the drops in water or fruit juice. For children, the elderly, those with a sensitive constitution or those avoiding alcohol, the alcohol can be evaporated from the tincture. This can be done by putting the drops in boiling water and leaving for 10 minutes to evaporate. For full instructions go to our How to take Herbal Tincture page.

Motherwort Tincture can be added to water or fruit juice.

Serving:

Motherwort Tincture:
Traditionally Taken: 1-4ml up to 3 times daily.
or as directed by a Herbal practitioner. 

20 drops from the glass dropper equals approximately 1ml.

  • Produced to GMP standards.
  • Quality Assured by Indigo Herbs.
  • Suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
  • 100% pure botanical ingredients, absolutely nothing added.
  • Packaged in a pharmacoepial grade brown glass bottle with dropper.

Manufacture Process

All leaves that are used in this Motherwort tincture have come from mature Leonurus cardiaca plants. The leaves that are used are rigorously checked to ensure that all are fit for purpose and totally free form pollutants. The leaves then undergo a process of cold percolation in order to extract the active constituents into tincture form. The cold percolation method employs a gradient circulation of the solution which keeps the plant ingredients in perpetual contact with the ethanol. This technique is faster and more efficient than maceration and ensures there is less waste of precious plant materials. This premium quality product is manufactured to GMP standards and Quality Assured by Indigo Herbs. It is 100% pure botanical ingredients, completely free of synthetic ingredients with absolutely nothing added.
