Description

Bidens pilosa is most commonly known as shepherd’s needles, beggarticks, Spanish needles or butterfly needles. Bidens means two- toothed, describing the two projections found at the top of the seeds. Our Bidens is harvested fresh from our land here in Florida and tinctures are extracted in both spirits (alcohol) and distilled water.

Bidens pilosa is a powerful herbal ally that is well known in both Traditional Herbal systems and Western Herbalism. It is used to fight both bacterial and viral infections as well as to clear inflammation, amongst many other complaints.

You may hear Bidens being coined as “Nature’s Antibiotic”… but to be more appropriate, plants have co-evolved alongside bacteria for millions of years, which allow them to be equipped with numerous phyto-chemicals that work synergistically to assist in healing such as winning over an “unwanted” bacterial infection. This is one of the main reasons why plants such as Bidens can be useful for many different issues.
