Description: Known as, "the king of herbs" and is most well-known for its incredibly high content of vitamins and minerals. “The medicinal properties more likely depend on the strong alkalinity of the herb. Many problems are due to acidity. Alkalization sedates the nerves and muscles, removes acids from the digestive tract and internal environment, improving digestion, reducing putrefaction in the gut, and cleansing the internal fluids and tissues.” Matthew Wood
