Wintergreen General Information
Wintergreen is a low-growing evergreen shrub native to North America. During the time of the American Revolution, American patriots boycotted British tea and used Wintergreen tea as a substitute. North American tribes used Wintergreen for a variety of conditions including kidney problems, paralysis, rheumatism, arthritis, fevers, asthma, muscle aches, inflammation, wounds, rashes, toothaches, headaches and sore throats. In the 1800s, a pharmacologist discovered that the oil from Wintergreen leaves had aspirin-like pain relief properties. Wintergreen has astringent, stimulant, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, analgesic, and diuretic properties.
