Cures of blackcurrant hydrosol soothe osteoarthritis-related pain in the elderly and can be life-saving in animals, offering an effective natural alternative to corticoids sometimes prescribed by rheumatologists or veterinarians.

The Plant Burgundy blackcurrant
Plant part: Branch With Buds
Origin: France
Cultivated in France since the 16th century for its fruit and more recently for its buds, the blackcurrant became popular after 1945, thanks to Canon Kir’s famous aperitif made with white wine and crème de cassis.
The blackcurrant bush grows to a height of 1 to 1.5 meters. All its aerial parts can be used. The fruit is known for its high vitamin C and flavonoid content. As for the leaves and buds, they have some very interesting properties. Buds are harvested between mid-December and mid-February and distilled in our stills.

At first, she gently took what the doctor prescribed, conventional anti-inflammatories. She was doubly satisfied when I prepared a small “aroma” pharmacy for her; her pain was relieved without side effects,...
