Medicinal Folk Uses: Traditionally used to treat skin wounds. It has astringent and anti-inflammatory properties, which help to reduce bleeding, swelling, and inflammation. The plant was often used to make a poultice or salve for topical application to wounds. It has long been known that yarrow can relieve menstrual cramps and regulate menstrual cycles. Its antispasmodic and anti-inflammatory properties help to relax the uterus and reduce cramping. Yarrow has also been used to treat respiratory issues, such as colds, flu, and bronchitis. Its antimicrobial and expectorant properties help to relieve congestion, and fight off infection. It's also a natural fever reducer. The plant's diaphoretic properties promote sweating, which can help to reduce fever.

Modern studies support that the plant may have neuroprotective properties and could potentially benefit individuals with certain neurological conditions. The authors of the study suggest that yarrow extract could potentially be used as a natural treatment for Alzheimer's disease and other cognitive disorders. The plant contains several compounds, such as flavonoids and sesquiterpene lactones, that have been shown to have sedative and anxiolytic effects in some studies. These compounds may help to calm the mind and promote relaxation, which could in turn help to improve sleep.

Preparation Suggestion:  Tea is made by steeping 2–3 teaspoons (10–15 grams) of the herb in 1 cup (250 ml) of hot water for ten to fifteen minutes.
