Bog/Pink Wintergreen (Pyrola asarifolia )

Internally, a tea can be used as an analgesic and to reduce inflammation. It also helps
to improve urinary conditions. Externally, it makes a good eye wash (after the tea has
cool down). A poultice can be made with the leaves and placed on sore or swollen spots.
It improves skin conditions as well. We don't recommend to use it as food.
