( Gaultheria procumbens )

 

Awaken the forest's soothing whisper with our premium Organic Dried Wintergreen Leaf (Gaultheria procumbens) from Trifecta Botanicals. Sourced from certified organic wild stands in North America and gently dried to preserve its potent methyl salicylate, flavonoids, and essential oils, this evergreen herb has been a trusted remedy among Native American and European traditions for centuries, offering aspirin-like relief for pain, inflammation, and respiratory ease.

 

Key Benefits and Traditional Uses:

  • Pain Relief: Traditionally chewed or brewed by Native Americans to alleviate headaches, toothaches, back pain, muscle soreness, and rheumatic aches, providing natural analgesic effects similar to aspirin.
  • Anti-Inflammatory Support: Used to reduce swelling and inflammation in joints, arthritis, and related conditions, thanks to its polyphenol-rich profile that modulates inflammatory responses.
  • Respiratory & Fever Relief: Valued for soothing sore throats, coughs, colds, and fevers, while historically aiding breathing during exertion, with antiseptic properties for minor infections.
  • Additional Wellness Applications: In folk medicine, incorporated for gastrointestinal discomfort and as an antioxidant tonic, with antimicrobial and insect-repelling qualities for holistic protection.

 

Perfect for brewing minty teas, crafting topical tinctures, or infusing into salves for muscle rubs. Our Organic Dried Wintergreen Leaf is 100% pure, additive-free, and packaged fresh to ensure maximum potency. Ideal for herbal adventurers seeking woodland relief—important note: Contains methyl salicylate, which acts like aspirin; avoid if allergic to aspirin, pregnant, breastfeeding, or with bleeding disorders; consult a healthcare provider before use.
