Lonicera nigra

Gemmotherapy uses the extracts of fresh buds, young shoots, rootlets, or saps from developing plants, where the plants life essence is at its peak in the young growths. UNDA Gemmotherapy remedies are prepared in a natural glycerin and organic ethanol medium, which is then filtered and potentized at a 1/10th dilution (1X Hahnemannian) in a pure water, natural glycerin and organic ethanol medium. These complex remedies are macerated for increased patient compliance. This methodology captures the most complete set of highly-concentrated active constituents necessary for tissue regeneration, favourable growth development and essential drainage properties. UNDA Gemmotherapy facilitates Biotherapeutic Drainage and is an excellent adjunct to the UNDA Numbered Compounds.*

There are over 200 different species of the Lonicera tree (1). Out of all these many species, the Nigra variety is one of the rarest (2). The flowers of the Lonicera Nigra are beautifully scented, but its berries are black and highly toxic (3).*

In folklore tales, Lonicera Nigra was the symbol of love and legend has it that Sir Lancelot himself offered these flowers to his betrothed (4).*

Lonicera Nigra is a drainer of the liver and kidneys (5). It is less powerful then Juniperus Communis in respects to these actions, however, Lonicera Nigra has the additional component of being a nervo-calmant, especially when combined with Tilia Tomentosa in the case of muscular and nervous cramps (6).*

The depurative actions of this Gemmotherapy are indicated in alleviating pain associated with arthritis and trophic deformations (7).*

Through its general hepatic, renal and nervous system actions, Lonicera Nigra is indicated in cases of colibacilosis, tonsillitis, emphysema as well as urinary and hepatic manifestations and splenic inflammation (8).*

Not for use in children (9).
