Framed Print of Mistletoe, Medicinal Plant, 1737
"A Curious Herbal", Plate 184. Mistletoe had been applied as a remedy for tumors and ulcers from Roman times. Blackwell also remarks on its use for "convulsion fits, the apoplexy, palsy, and vertigo." Mistletoe (Viscum album) is a species of mistletoe in the family Santalaceae. Mistletoe is used for heart and blood vessel conditions including high blood pressure, atherosclerosis, internal bleeding, and hemorrhoids; epilepsy and infantile convulsions; gout; psychiatric conditions such as depression; sleep disorders; headache; absence of menstrual periods; symptoms of menopause; and for blood purifying. Some people use European mistletoe for treating mental and physical exhaustion; to reduce side effects of chemotherapy and radiation therapy; as a tranquilizer; and for treating whooping cough, asthma, dizziness, diarrhea, chorea, and liver and gallbladder conditions. It has been used for treating cancer since the 1920s, especially in Europe. Elizabeth Blackwell (1707-1758) was a famed Scottish illustrator and author who was best known as both the artist and engraver for the plates of "A Curious Herbal" (1737). © NLM / Science Source
