Corn Silk Tincture
Corn Silk Tincture
Corn silk is not a food but has a long history of use for its health and wellness properties in traditional indigenous healing practices. As corn spread around the entire world, so did word of its health boosting qualities.
Corn silk is a diuretic with an affinity for the kidneys and urinary tract, even more so when heat is present. Considered a cooling plant and demulcent, corn silk is sometimes used in traditional folk herbalism as a tonic. Corn silk is typically prepared fresh as a tincture or can be dried and used in herbal tea blends, made into capsules or into a powder form that can be added to food or drinks.
