Angelica Root

What is Angelica Root?

Angelica root has been used for women's health in china for thousands of years. It is a uterine tonic and hormonal regulator.

What does Angelica Root do?

Angelica root is a powerful uterine stimulant. It can help to expel a retained placenta or aid in completing a miscarriage. For women who have hormonal imbalances, angelica can promote estrogenic activity.

How do I do it?

Angelica root is used as a tincture, which means it is preserved in a base and used only a few drops at a time.

Some sample angelica root uses:

Take 8 - 10 drops under your tongue to help expel a retained placenta.

You can use a specially prepared birth formula containing angelica root to help prepare the body for labor.

Some women can be sensitive to angelica. Start with the lowest dose. It can be repeated if necessary.
