Wood Betony has a gentle bittersweet and astringent flavor, and its leaves and flowering tops are often brewed to make herbal tea.

Whether protecting the body from free radical damage, reducing pain and swelling or fighting infections and healing wounds, this perennial plant packs a powerful medicinal punch. This herb can stand up to its namesake, as one of the things it is commonly used for is to reduce the pain associated with a headache. It contains glycosides, which can help lower blood pressure and so in turn tackle headaches and anxiety. Wood betony herb also contains around 15% tannins. This makes it a good astringent to help treat diarrhoea, mouth and throat infections and skin issues. So remarkable is this herb and so wide-ranging the number of ailments it could help soothe, that the ancient Romans listed 47 separate maladies that wood betony could cure. Thanks to antioxidant properties it can fight off free radical damage and help keep disease at bay. Its antimicrobial action can help beat infections and heal wounds. While it is also believed to have a calming effect on the nervous system, treating insomnia, anxiety and nervous disorders thanks to its mild sedative effect. Although wood betony herb is often taken in tea, tincture, powder or capsule form, it can also be applied topically as a poultice, or used as a mouthwash to tackle infection, inflammation, tooth pain and gingivitis.
