History and Uses:
Heal All, a powerfully astringent herb, is known by many names, but the most common is Prunella, but as manyof its other common names imply, Heal All was used extensively as a healing herb, particularly when used topically to stanch the bleeding of wounds.  In poultice form, it was also used to treat bruises, burns, sprains, cuts and hemorrhoids.  Heal All was also used as a mouthwash for sores and gum problems, as well as a gargle for sore throat and thrush.  It was also used in a douche for leukorrhea.  The herb is often useful for treating liver disorders, and it has been prescribed by herbalists in cases of jaundice, hepatitis and general weakness of the liver.  Heal All is beneficial for limited internal bleeding and can also be valuable in cases of diarrhea, flatulence and gastritis, as well as the expulsion of intestinal parasites.   Heal All is believed to have antibacteria and antiviral properties; and in the treatment of Grave's disease, the herb has been effective in combination with Bugleweed.  Heal All is also high in antioxidants, and it has been made into a tea with Oregano as an immune system booster.  Constituents of Heal All include essential oil, Rutin,  tannic acid, beta-carotene and vitamins B-1, C and K.  The herb has had some success in treating vertigo, hypertension, gout and conjunctivitis.  Heal All is truly one of the most versatile, safe and effective of nature's medicinal plants.
