Other names:

Mistletoe is an excellent relaxing neurotonic and is indicated in many cases. It acts directly on the pneumogastric system and slows down heart rate, while strengthening the walls of the peripheral capillary vessels. In that way, it reduces blood pressure and helps with arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries). It is very helpful in cases of nervous tachycardia. It relieves headaches caused by hypertension. Recent anti-cancer research has proven that it has some antineoplastic action.
