A SELECTION OF MEDICINAL HERBS – SEA ONION OR SQUILL {SCILLA, URGINEA MARITIME) (GENERAL INFORMATION)
The plants also used it to aid those who suffered from extreme cold in the hands and feet, whose urine was pale and watery, whose pulse was light or rapid, or whose upper air passages were affected with catarrh. It was found especially helpful in treating the kind of heart trouble that is accompanied by difficulty in dispersing water and expelling phlegm caused by catarrh, and by itching of the skin. More recent observations, based on the experience of those ancient herbalists, have confirmed the efficacy of fresh squill extract in curing the range of symptoms just described.
This natural plant remedy can be of great help in treating these problems. Large doses are unnecessary. In fact, to achieve good results no more than five drops of 3x potency (1/1000 dilution of the mother tincture) need be taken at one time.
A combination of lily of the valley and sea onion produces a very good remedy, Convascillan. Where once it was necessary to give strophanthin – a virtual whip for the heart – it is now possible to provide help with this gentle and reliable Convallaria complex, which supports rather than drives the heart. The effect of Convascillan is also long-lasting, another point in its favour.
