Peumus boldus
Boldo is a medicinal tree found in Chile and Peru. Indigenous peoples of these regions have long used the leaves as a tonic, antiseptic, and stimulant. Herbalists employ boldo leaf to support the gallbladder, treat gallstones, and reduce pain associated with liver and gallbladder inflammation. Boldo contains an alkaloid that protects the liver and helps stimulate the production and secretion of liver bile. Boldo may also be used to treat heartburn and bloating associated with poor digestion, and to boost the absorption of nutrients through the digestive tract. It is a mild diuretic. In combination with other bladder-health herbs, it has been used to help treat cystitis. Dried boldo leaves are also used as a culinary herb in Chilean and Peruvian cuisine.

"If you want to change your life and overall well-being take the first step and visit the Herb Shoppe. They are so knowledgeable in herbs, flower essences, and everything vital to life. I am so very grateful for this store."
"The herb shoppe is amazing! I had such a positive experience and the staff was so patient and helpful. As a newbie to herbalism and apothecary, it's so refreshing to be guided and helped out without any judgement. Vicky is super awesome and knows so much about herbalism and essential oils. Great selection of herbs and they have some delicious kombucha on tap."
"This place is amazing. The staff there are always very helpful. Reasonable prices for a large selection of herbs, teas, etc. They have smudge sticks and other things too. I am a huge fan of their turmeric chips for my inflammation. It's better than taking ibuprofen, and I can just drop a few chips in my tea."
