Yarrow (Achillea millefolium):

✔️ Wound healing & first aid – Yarrow is a styptic (helps stop bleeding), an antimicrobial (inhibits bacteria and infections), and a vulnerary (supports wound healing and tissue repair). Traditionally used for cuts, scrapes, and even deep wounds.

✔️ Circulatory health – Acts as a vasodilator (widens blood vessels to improve circulation), a blood mover (supports healthy blood flow and prevents stagnation), and a hypotensive (helps balance blood pressure).

✔️ Fever support – Functions as a diaphoretic (encourages sweating to help the body release heat and regulate fevers), aiding detoxification through the skin.

✔️ Menstrual balance – Used as an emmenagogue (stimulates or regulates menstrual flow), an antispasmodic (relieves cramps and spasms), and a hormonal balancer for heavy or irregular cycles.

✔️ Digestive aid – Supports digestion as a bitter (stimulates digestive juices), a carminative (reduces bloating and gas), and a hepatic (aids liver function).

✔️ Lymphatic & immune support – Functions as a lymphatic (supports lymph drainage and detox), an anti-inflammatory, and an immune modulator (helps regulate immune response).
