FSS Skullcap Extract PF

Preserved with Leucidal Liquid

Skullcap is an herbaceous perennial mint with ridged leaves and tiny flowers that can range in color from purple and blue to pink and white. The two-lobed flowers resemble the military helmets worn by early European settlers, hence the herb’s name. A hardy plant, it grows 1 to 4 feet (25 cm to 1 m) high, thriving in the woods and swamplands of eastern North America. Settlers in the late 1700’s promoted the herb’s effectiveness as a cure for rabies, giving rise to one of its common names, mad dog weed. Skullcap is a member of the mint family, is native to the United States where it grows in moist woods. It is also grown and used in Europe and East Asia. Skullcap may be used for its anti-inflammatory, antifungal, and antibacterial properties. It is also known to reduce oil on the hair and skin. Skullcap can be formulated into lotions creams, shampoos, masks, and cleansers.
