Wahoo Extract Euonymus atropurpureus 1 fl.oz. liquid by Energique.
Therapeutic action:
Cathartic (aperient), tonic, alterative, cholagogue, hepatic stimulant, expectorant, antiperiodic, astringent, anti-bilious.
Wahoo is an excellent and persisting laxative agent, with an action that is similar to Turkey rhubarb, but milder. It must be administered in small doses however, as the larger dosages will be purgative and irritating to the intestines (small doses are mild and non-irritating). Its expectorant action makes it a useful agent for lung affections, and it is particularly effective in correcting liver disorders during and following fever. Wahoo has a beneficial action on the pancreas and spleen, and is slightly diuretic. It stimulates the appetite and increases the flow of gastric juice.
Medicinal uses:
Habitual constipation, bilious cough, rheumatism, dropsy, torpid liver, pulmonary affections, dyspepsia, fevers, jaundice, biliousness skin troubles.
