Two Words: Black Cohosh

"This herb was widely used by eastern Native American tribes including the Cherokee, Iroquois, Penobscot and Micmac. These tribes #1 use of Black cohosh was for the relief of pain. In 1749 von Linne describes it as an herb for female debility and pain relief, as well as a cardiac (heart) tonic and uterine tonic. It appears in botanical literature as early as 1680. Black cohosh was used extensively by the Eclectics for women’s muscular pains, uterine pain, tender uterus, irregular pains, and dysmenorrhea. This herb was also widely used as a mild sedative."
