Wild Lettuce Dry Herb Pack Lactuca virosa
Learning with LaRee
Wild Lettuce is a safe sedative that can be given to adults and children to encourage a restful night’s sleep. A small dose can calm over-excitability in children and nervous tension in adults. The sedative properties may be used to quiet a cough but care should be taken to quiet only dry unproductive coughs, and not to use this herb to quiet a cough that is expelling phlegm that needs to be gotten out of the body. Wild Lettuce is also an excellent pain killer and is said to lower the libido.
