  1. Meadowsweet is used in the traditional treatment of heartburn, hyperacidity, gastritis and peptic ulceration.The tea and extracts may soothe and protect the mucous membranes of the digestive tract and stomach lining whilst reducing acidity. Studies have found that Meadowsweet can also promote the healing of chronic ulcers and prevent lesions from developing in the stomach.  The gentle astringency of the tea is useful in managing diarrhoea, especially in children. 
  2. Meadowsweet extract contain salicylates with anti-inflammatory properties. The anti-inflammatory action of these salicylates makes Meadowsweet effective against rheumatic pain, while its tannin and mucilage content appear to buffer the adverse effects of isolated salicylates which can otherwise cause cause gastric irritation.
