Wild Lettuce
has been considered to be a mild sedative that is known
to calm the nerves, treat restlessness, anxiety, severe nervous
disorders, neuroses, and has often been used to induce sleep, and
treat insomnia and hyperactivity in children. Because it is
soothing to the digestive system, it has also been helpful for
colic.
Wild Lettuce
Leaf, once considered an opium substitute, entered
into medical practice as a sedative in the eighteenth century
because of its similar, but non-addictive effects. Wild Lettuce has
also been used as a diuretic and pain reliever.
It is
believed to be an expectorant and has been effective in easing
dry, irritating coughs, bronchitis, and asthma, as it helps to
loosen and expel phlegm from the respiratory tract.
Used as a
diuretic, it helps to promote and increase urine flow and is said
to help in cases of urinary tract infections and dropsy (edema),
which is the accumulation of fluid in tissues (swelling) or body
cavities.
Wild Lettuce
has been used to relieve pain, especially muscular pain and
the joint pain of arthritis. It is also thought to relieve painful
monthly periods.
Wild Lettuce
helps to relieve chronic pain, muscle/joint pains, birth pains,
headaches, and alleviate cramps.
