Scullcap Powder
Energetically, american skullcap is a bitter herb with cooling properties, making it most useful for those with signs of heat. While doing research for this article I found many herbalists had favorite skullcap uses and decided to include many of those pearls of wisdom in this article.
Indigenous to North America, scullcap is very abundant throughout the land, growing in damp places, ditches, meadows and by the sides of ponds, from Connecticut, south to Florida and Texas.
The flavonoid components of scullcap are thought responsible for its activity, although as so often happens, scientists are just not sure where scullcap derives its benefits from. An herb used as a tea, it has no side effects.
Scullcap can be used for its sedative effects, to promote a healthy nervous system, and to ease inflammation throughout the body.
