Oat Tops | Organic | Kosher

Oat Tops, Avena sativa ~ Mild, slightly sweet. The tops or seed, harvested in the milky stage, are considered a perfect nervine, calming but not overtly sedative, and slightly fortifying or balancing to nervous system function. Generous amounts can be used in infusions, though it is also a popular tincture. One of many child friendly herbs in our refillery.

The entire plant is rich in minerals and trace nutrients such as silica, magnesium, phosphorus, chromium, iron, calcium, alkaloids, protein, the vitamin B complex, and vitamins A and C (Holmes, 1997 and Berger, 1998). Regular consumption of an infusion of dried oatstraw and dried milky oats is an excellent way to incorporate vitamins and bioavailable minerals into your diet. The calcium and magnesium in oatstraw help build strong bones.
