„The roots of burnet are jnown to beeffective against acute diarrhoea. The herb also has antihaemorrhage properties and has been used to treat ulcerative colitis, metrorrhagia (uterine bleeding) and topically against haemorrhoids, various skin conditions (wounds, ulcers, burns and eczema) and mucosal inflammations (included in gargles and tooth pastes). The main traditional use (in Europe and China) is to stop bleeding, as is reflected in the generic name sanguis (blood) and sorbeo (I absorb).“ The roots contain tannins, flavonoids and triterpene saponins.
