Not all Restharrow plants have good medicinal properties, which depends on the saponin content of the individual plant. Some plants contain little or one saponin. When using Hauhechel, the body needs additional fluid to excrete.
If you want to do a Restharrow treatment, you should only do it for 2 weeks, otherwise you will no longer feel the effect. After a break of 2 weeks, a new treatment can be started.
