“This herb is considered an effective herbal antibiotic that clears infection and is said to be effective against a variety of bacteria and moulds.”

We continue with the A-Z of Herbs and in this article we will be discussing the herb COUCH GRASS. The roots and seeds of Couch Grass have played a very important part in herbal medicine since Ancient times.

Its botanical name is Elytrigia repens (also known as Elymus repens and Agropyron repens) and is also known by other names such as Quackgrass, Dog Grass, and Twitch Grass.

Couch Grass is a perennial plant that may be found in fields and the wilderness throughout Australia, Northern Asia, the Americas and Europe.  It grows to about 1 metre in height with thin leaves and upright flower spikes that produce green flowers.

Throughout time the Romans used Couch Grass medicinally to treat problems of the bladder and kidney stones.  The North American Indian tribes – the Cherokee and Iroquois used it to expel gravel and worms and this herb was also used to treat sore backs, painful urination and the discharge of mucus.

Couch Grass contains Vitamins A and B and is very high in mucilage, a demulcent which has a soothing action bringing relief from inflammation.  It also contains protein, fibre, iron, calcium, selenium and magnesium just to name a few of its properties.

Couch Grass is my herb of choice for the Treatment of Urinary Diseases!

Couch Grass is an excellent remedy for the control of the symptoms of urinary disease from infections to kidney stones, cystitis and even enlargement of the prostate.

It assists in healing the urinary membranes and is particularly effective for children’s conditions in helping to manage tension in the urinary system when bedwetting seems to be a constant problem.

Couch Grass is considered an effective herbal antibiotic that clears infection and is said to be effective against a variety of bacteria and moulds.

It can also be used to heal conditions like bronchitis and laryngitis caused by the accumulation of phlegm.  The Couch Grass assists the phlegm to become more slippery and easier to expel or cough up.
