PHARMA GERMANIA - Oak Straw - 50g

Pharma Germania Oak Straw is a carefully dried herbal preparation made from the stems and leaves of the oat plant (Avena sativa), harvested while still green. Supplied in a 50g pack, this traditional herb has been used for centuries in European herbal medicine to support the nervous system and promote a sense of calm.

Oak straw, more commonly referred to as oat straw or Avena sativa, is valued for its naturally occurring mineral content, including silica, calcium, magnesium and iron. These nutrients contribute to its traditional use in supporting healthy skin, hair and nails, as well as overall vitality. Herbalists have long recommended oat straw as a gentle nervine tonic, making it a popular choice for those experiencing periods of stress, nervous tension or mental fatigue.

This dried herb is typically prepared as a nourishing infusion or tea. For a standard infusion, steep one to two teaspoons of the dried herb in freshly boiled water for 10 to 15 minutes, then strain and enjoy. For a more concentrated nourishing infusion, a larger quantity can be steeped for several hours to extract the full mineral profile. Oak straw may also be used in herbal bath preparations, where it has traditionally been applied to soothe irritated or dry skin.

Pharma Germania sources quality dried herbs suitable for home preparation. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve freshness and potency. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding or taking medication, consult a healthcare practitioner before use.
