cool, moistening + clean, chickweed is one of the earliest greens to show up in spring.
it has long been used as a nutritive tonic to clean the winter out of your system.
it washes through the waters of the body (especially lymph), clearing toxicity and stagnation.

it's particularly helpful for diet/weight loss support (along with burdock + dandelion).
a slow metabolism indicates that your liver needs help processing and eliminating toxins.
this is also the case when someone who's eating well, exercising and losing weight hits a 'plateau'
leaving them foggy, sluggish and tired. they stop losing weight.
(this is also a situation where people start experiencing low thyroid symptoms.)

you can use this remedy pretty liberally. try one dropper full 2-3 times a day with a glass of water.
if after a week or two you're feeling good and noticing positive change, you can up your dose a bit more.
just make sure you're taking it with water. this is a great plant ally for spring and summer.

this tincture pairs *perfectly* with my yarrow, stinging nettle, cleavers + dandelion root tincture.

chickweed is specifically useful in remedying:
-low metabolism
-appetite imbalances
-cysts/lumps/lypomas
-hot/dry/flaky skin conditions
-excess water weight
-difficult weight loss


*if you're interested in remedying specific imbalances, please message me. i consult for free so you can have the most minimal + effective regimen for your situation.

the tincture is wrapped in paper and boxed with a thank you note that includes dosage parameters and a way to contact me if you have questions.

store tinctures out of direct sunlight and at moderate room temperatures. it does not hurt to refrigerate them but is not necessary.

you can put tinctures directly in your mouth. no need to put them under the tongue. follow with a glass of water for good assimilation. many tinctures should be given a good shake before dosing. i would be happy to offer appropriate dosage considering your personal situation. if you message me i can give you more specific dosage guidelines and expectations for what the remedy can do for you and how long it should take to see results. if you chose the remedy on your own without a consultation first, i will be honest as to whether you can expect the results you're looking for or not. sometimes we need a few moving parts to get the job done. i consult for free for your safety and benefit. i have a 'custom remedy' option so you can try tiny sizes of a regimen if you'd like. just because you may need a few moving parts doesn't mean getting what you need will become unaffordable. many of my clients are low income and i will gladly work within any budget.
