Bertram is one of the best introducing plants. The plant has the ability to make active ingredients from food optimally available to the cells of our body. If you imagine that you eat a completely healthy diet but for some reason the vitamins and minerals don't get where they should and that's where Bertram comes into play. It breaks down the vitamins and minerals so that they are optimally available to our cells.
The plant flowers like chamomile.
The root can be used as a flavor-enhancing spice in the kitchen, but the herb can also be used in a wide variety of dishes. Bertram root tastes quite spicy and has a lot of stimulating and skin-irritating substances.
Hildegard von Bingen: For a healthy person it is good to eat because it alleviates the rot in him and increases the good blood in him and prepares a clear mind. But it also restores the sick person's strength, because it does not send anything out undigested, but rather ensures good digestion. Often enjoyed, it drives away chest infections and prepares pure juices and clears the eyes. And no matter how it is eaten, dry or in a dish, it is useful. If you eat it often, it will drive away illness and prevent you from becoming ill.
