	Yarrow Herbal Supplement from Herbal Extracts Plus
		Yarrow is a hardy, herbaceous, creeping perennial that grows everywhere - in grass meadows, pastures, and by roadsides - in North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia, thriving in well-drained soil in full sun and growing to a height of three feet.
		Yarrow has long been associated with divination and clairvoyance and was considered "sacred" to the Druids, who used the stems to foretell the weather, and in China, the stems were employed to see into the future.
		Moreover, Yarrow encourages bile flow and is thought to balance the function of the liver and has a positive influence on secretions produced throughout the alimentary canal (the mucous-membrane-lined tube of the digestive system, extending from the mouth to the anus, including the pharynx, esophagus, stomach and intestines).
