How To Make A Herbal Decoction Remedy
November 30, 1999 |
A herbal decoction is simply a method that involves extracting a plant’s active ingredients in a more vigorous manner than an infusion. Most decoctions are made from the twigs, barks, roots and berries of plants, rather than the leaves.
To make a decoction, simply heat herb you are working with in cold water. Simmer it for about an hour. Then strain the bark, twigs, roots or berries with a strainer. You can take a decoction either hot or cold, but you should always make sure that it should be consumed fresh.
A popular chinese decoction is with the use of Ginseng. My mum used to brew that whenever she felt that I need to build up my immunity against colds.
