Description
 
4 oz. brown glass bottle (Alnus glutinosa). A tincture of Alder cones has an antibiotic activity against many strains of bacteria, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Alder bark is greenish-gray to reddish-brown, thin and smooth on small trees, becoming scaly near the base on more mature, larger trees. The flowers, which appear early in the spring before the leaves develop, are reddish green. Male flowers are borne in drooping catkins and the female in erect catkins, both on the same tree. The cone-like fruit usually remains on the limbs throughout the winter. The bark has a strong, rather aromatic odor and a bitter astringent taste. Alder grows along streams and around springs or seeps, attaining a height of six to fifteen feet. It associates with Lodgepole pine, Willows and Aspen.

Constituents: The plant contains alnincanone, brassinolide, castasterone, and taraxerone. The leaves contain three-beta-hydroxy-glutin-5-en, alnusfoliendiolone, delta-amyrenome, L-ornithine, and sucrose. Bark contains alnulin, beta-sitosterol, citrullin, emodin, glutinone, hyperoside, lupeol, phliobaphene, protoalnulin, tannin, and taraxerol.

Amoeba Infestation – Take one teaspoon of cone tincture in ½ cup of water first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. Repeat before noon and evening meals. Take an additional dosage ½ hour before mealtime. The tincture may be taken for several weeks without known adverse effects.

Inflammation of the Upper Intestine – Use ½ to one teaspoon of the tincture in one cup of warm water several times daily as an astringent in acute and chronic enteritis, enterocolitis, dysentery or colitis. Take dosage for three to seven days.
