Euphorbia hirta

Traditional herb from Suriname & tropical regions
Available in dried leaf form

Euphorbia hirta is a herb that has long been used within Surinamese oso dresi traditions. The plant is known for its fine leaves and is traditionally prepared as a tea or light decoction, usually for short-term use.

Unlike strong bitter herbs, Euphorbia hirta has a mildly bitter to slightly astringent taste with a fresh herbal, green character. Because of this, it is considered within traditional practice to be a more accessible herb and is often used on its own.
