Plantain is a great plant to familiarize yourself with as it grows all over the world and can be used for so many different applications. It is best known for its ability to take away itching or pain associated with bug bites and stings or minor wounds when chewed as a poultice or extracted in an oil or wash. Its tissue-regenerative properties make it ideal for healing internal membranes of the lungs, intestinal tract, and urinary tract to name a few. It has a demulcent action, making it moistening and nourishing to inner and outer tissues.
