Cleavers is a powerful mover and cleanser. Think of Cleavers when there’s blockage, congestion or stagnation - swelling or fluid retention, swollen lymph nodes, polycystic breasts. As one of the first of Spring’s greens to offer themselves to us, Cleavers is a wonderful “Spring cleaning” tonic after a long winter of heavier foods and a more sedentary lifestyle, but is a favorite at any time of year for conditions like urinary tract or kidney infection, cystitis, prostatitis, and urethritis as well as any skin conditions of a dry and inflamed nature, namely psoriasis.

Cleavers has an affinity for the nervous system. Think of repetitive or “stuck” patterns of emotion. Those with conditions like sympathetic excess, “fight or flight,” nervousness, anxiety, insatiability, irritability or fussiness, hypersensitivity and reactivity all find solace with Cleavers. It is nourishing, building, and gentle enough to be taken daily by most anyone, even children.

Our family reaches for Cleavers extract 3 times per day any time our immune systems are in need of a boost, and at the first sign of a swollen lymph node or UTI. We have used Cleavers over a period of a few months after particularly stressful situations or strain on the nervous system. And, we use Cleavers every year for “Spring cleaning,” to wake our bodies up and get us moving again after a long winter.

Ingredients: Sustainably wild-harvested fresh young Cleavers, vodka (50% alcohol)

Suggested Use: Dosage for Cleavers is quite subjective. For those who tend to be more sensitive and those very young or very old, start with a small dose by mouth in a little water or juice, between 1 and 10 drops, 3 times per day. For children, 1-30 drops by mouth, adjusting more or less based on body weight, 3 times per day. For adults, 30-60 drops is typical. Cleavers can feel somewhat stimulating if you’re taking more than is necessary. If you feel energized at bedtime, maybe back off on the dosage a bit. You may wish, for young children, to add tincture to hot water or other liquid, in order to evaporate alcohol content yet retain herbal extractives. Serve cooled.

Contraindications: None known, however, Cleavers has diuretic properties - so those who have diabetes or conditions in which taking something with diuretic properties could be irritating should use caution and consult with their physician before use. Always consult with your physician before using a new herb, especially if you are pregnant, trying to conceive, breastfeeding, are on medications or have a health condition.
