Epilobium (Small Flowered Willow Herb) only recently came to the professional's and public's attention, after a lecture by Austrian herbalist Maria Treben. However, her
lecture stirred a tremendous demand for the herb throughout Germany and Austria for use by men concerned about the health of their prostate.
American demand has grown quickly over the past few years, even in light of little public information about the herb, because men experience its
benefits. Until now, there have been few reliable sources for Epilobium, and no convenient full-spectrum forms of the herb.
Scientific literature is quickly confirming the actions of Epilobium. In 1991, an article in Plant Medicine4 confirmed its anti-inflammatory effect, and noted
it to be "ten times more effective than indomethacin." Inhibition of 5 alpha-reductase and aromatase, which are involved in the etiology of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), was confirmed in several recent articles.5,6 In addition, the anti-infectious activity of a water-alcohol extract was shown in vitro (outside the body), in ovo (in an egg) and in vivo (in a living body).7
Epilobium parviflorum (aerial parts) with 25% ethanol, and distilled water.
Suggested Usage: 5-7 drops two times per day or as directed by a qualified health professional.
