Guest guest Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 Ulcer Healing Herbal Tea 1 part Marshmallow root (ground) 1 part Licorice root (ground) 1 part Slippery Elm 1/2 part Echinacea angustafolia 1/2 part Geranium Sage Honey to taste Mix the above tea in a bowl. Pour 1 cup boiling water to 1 tsp. of herb. Let steep for 15 minutes. Drink on an empty stomach, 2 or 3 cups daily. These herbs have been traditionally used for healing stomach ulcers and decreasing stomach acids, as well as for binding proteins. The sage honey & geranium are recommended for their astringent properties in preventing bleeding. Other herbs known to be effective in healing ulcers are goldenseal, catnip, meadowsweet, ginger root and peppermint. SAGE HONEY 1 1/2 cups raw honey 1/4 cup fresh sage leaves (salvia officinalis) Heat honey over low heat. Add sage leaves and heat gently, taking care not to boil (excessive heat destroys the beneficial qualities of the honey). Heat until the sage leaves become dry. Now the herbal qualities and essential oils have been extracted from the sage herb and are contained in the honey. Strain with a slotted spoon or sieve. Pour aromatic honey into a clear glass jar and label.
