Magnolias

There are around 210 species of magnolias. Magnolias symbolized dignity and nobility. In ancient China, magnolias were thought to be the perfect symbols of womanly beauty and gentleness. Magnolia flowers and bark have been used for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine. Today, magnolia flowers and bark can be found in pills, powders, teas or tinctures. Magnolia is traditionally used to help with: Lung problems, Congestion in the chest, Runny nose, Menstrual cramps, Relaxing muscles, and Digestive upsets like gas and constipation.
