Verbena

Taste. Verbena has a rather bitter flavour and is therefore rarely used in cooking. It is occasionally used to flavour hearty meat dishes.

Effect. Recent studies reinforce the theory that some of the ingredients have anxiolytic and sedative effects on our organism. The most important ingredients here include bitter substances and flavonoids, which give vervain anti-inflammatory, diuretic, expectorant, expectorant and antispasmodic healing effects.
