          The aerial parts are the principle medicine I usually tincture the fresh plant in everclear but you can use the dried plant in vodka if you like (the fresh herbs is better). You can also use the dry powder to make teas or tinctures.

          Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.
