Red Root (New Jersey Tea) Tea (Loose)
Red Root is a half-hardy shrub growing to 4 or 5 feet high. It has downy leaves and stems and small ornamental white flowers in great numbers, coming into bloom June or July, followed by bluntly triangular seed vessels. It is usually called "New Jersey Tea" in America because its leaves were used as a substitute for tea during the War of Independence. In Canada, it is used to dye wool a cinnamon color. It takes its name from its large red roots. Its wood is tough, pale brown red, with fine rays - taste bitter and astringent with no odor. Its bark is brittle, dark-colored and thin. The leaves of Red Root are said to contain tannin, a soft resin and bitter extract, a green coloring matter similar to green tea in color and taste, gum a volatile substance, lignin, and a principle called "ceanothine."
Red Root exhibits astringent, antispasmodic, anti-syphilitic expectorant and sedative properties, used in asthma, chronic coughing, whooping-cough, consumption and dysentery; also as a mouth-wash and gargle. It can also be tried to help support throat problems such as tonsillitis, sore throat and thrush.
Traditionally used to help support asthma, coughs, whooping cough and much more.
