Poke Root and Castor Oil
Poke root castor salve
The powerful combination of fall harvested Poke Root and Castor oil has helped many people, including me, with issues where shrinking, soothing, and softening are needed. Because this salve is made with castor oil, it’s not likely to clog pores.
From fibroids, arthritis, swollen lymph nodes, endometriosis, cysts and fatty tumors to cystic acne; our creative customers have tried this smooth salve in ways I hadn’t imagined.
I was surprised to find that some have been using it for under eye care and have reported improvement in dark circles, fine lines, and a reduction in puffiness under the eyes. I have begun using it under my eyes as well and can report the same results.
Castor oil
Castor oil not only gives this salve a unique silky smooth feel, but it’s known for its rich fatty acids, natural anti-inflammatory compounds, and antioxidants. This salve is especially powerful when paired with heat.
You can warm the target area with a wet washcloth and/or place some salve in a small bowl that is sitting in a container of warm water before applying to the skin for additional benefits. OR you can apply the salve, lay a flannel cloth over the area and apply a hot water bottle (not heating pad).
I’ve been advised by knowledgeable herbalists to only use poke root for 6 weeks at a time. Take a break for a few weeks and start back if necessary. I’m NOT a clinical herbalist, but have used poke root for several years.
You can purchase the 1 oz, 2 oz, and 4 oz tins of this salve our family store at Homestead Iron. Like all my herbs, our Poke Root is harvested right here on the Missouri Herbs farm nestled next to the National forest. We are beyond organic!
Testimonial:
Your Poke Root Salve is amazing! I have a skin condition called hidradenitis suppurative. It is a very painful and disfiguring condition. Doctors don't have a cure just pills, poisons, and surgeries I can't afford. My mom brought me some of your Poke root salve to try after it helped my dad with his HS. I am so glad she did. It's the ONLY thing i treat my HS with now. When a sore starts popping up I apply the salve. I get immediate pain relief and In three days it's open and drains completely. It can take a couple weeks for a big one to completely heal but it heals instead of just draining and hurting all the time for months to years. I cannot go back to life without it. Nothing can ever happen to you because I really CAN NOT go back to the way things were. It was no good going through life without help or a cure. At least now I can treat it and win the battles. Thank you for your healing salve. With much love for your Butterfly Medicine ~ Tracy S.
