Notes

Do not confuse with lily of the valley — it is toxic; harvest only after 100% confident ID.

Why it works

Hot water and infusion time govern the release of polar metabolites and part of the volatile oils; a home infusion is not the same as a standardised tea extract from registered preparations.
