The Linden – Medicinal Plant of the Year 2025
The linden is the heart's tree of Central and Northern Europeans; for Martin Luther, it was a "tree of joy and peace." Our ancestors already used its blossoms, leaves, and honey as food and medicine.
The "Medicinal Plant of the Year 2025" is full of antioxidants that act as free radical scavengers; the blossoms, leaves, buds, bark, wood, and seeds of the linden can be used in a variety of ways. The polyphenols and other bioactive substances they contain strengthen the immune system, lower blood sugar, thereby preventing type II diabetes, curb inflammation, relieve pain, and protect us from cancer, liver diseases, and degenerative brain processes.
But we don't just benefit physically from the linden: With its support, we cope better with stress, reduce anxiety, fall asleep more easily, and enjoy deeper sleep. These and many other indications are supported by numerous scientific studies.
Medicinal plant expert Barbara Simonsohn has compiled valuable health knowledge and practical tips for home remedies, cooking, and beauty for you:
- Relief from complaints: Proven applications, internal and external
- Linden care for skin and hair: DIY natural cosmetics
- Linden delights: Fine recipes for the kitchen
From the author of the successful books "Artemisia annua", "Nettle", "Sage – Mother of all Medicinal Plants" and "Elder – Jewel of the Home Pharmacy".
"I am happy and grateful that Barbara Simonsohn has taken on the linden and its healing power in this book and tells us more about it."
Wolf-Dieter Storl, from his foreword to the book
