Red Ceanothus Americanus

Scientific Summary

Red Ceanothus Americanus, also known as Red Ceanothus, is a flowering shrub whose leaves, flowers, bark, and seeds are used in herbal preparations. It is traditionally employed to support respiratory and digestive health, to relieve sore throats, and to provide antimicrobial and anti‑inflammatory benefits. Because it can lower blood pressure and may interact with anticoagulants, caution is advised for people on blood‑pressure medication or blood‑thinners, and it is not recommended for pregnant women.
