Rehmania

Botanical name: Rehmania glutinosa 

Rehmania is a herb used in traditional Chinese medicine. It has a stabilising effect on the immune system, helping to balance the over-reactive immune response underlying allergies.

It is used to treat inflammatory disorders involving the immune system, such as allergies and autoimmune conditions. It is particularly useful for allergic skin conditions such as eczema and dermatitis.

Rehmania is renowned as a gentle adrenal tonic, supporting the adrenal glands during times of stress – often an exacerbating factor in allergies. This action may also assist those who have a history of corticosteroid use.
