Traditionally known to be of great benefit in heartburn, gastritis, peptic ulcers and hiatus hernia. Herbalists still recommend meadowsweet as one of the best digestive herbs for the treatment of ulcers and heartburn. By reducing the acidity levels around the joints, it also reduces the pain due to gout and arthritis.
