Red clover is one of God's greatest blessing to man and grows just about everywhere! It is very pleasant to take and a wonderful blood purifier. In Back To Eden, an herbal book, it says it is excellent for cancer of the stomach. Red clover is quieting to the nerves, efective in spasmodic, bronchial troubles, is healing to fresh wounds as well as old ulcers, and makes an excellent healing salve. Gather them in the summer when in full bloom, dry in the shade on papers. Put in paper bags when dry and hang in a dry place. Use this tea in place of caffinated tea and you will have spendid results. This can also be used to make iced tea. Red clover grows all over the US and fits into New England, Mid Atlantic, Mid West, West, Southwest, and Southern regions.
