Orris root is used more in cosmetics, perfumes, and potpourris rather than for its medicinal qualities; however, it is still an excellent way to brush your teeth, strengthen your gums, and freshen your breath. The fresh root has diuretic, emetic, and cathartic properties. It can also be used for colic and liver congestion. Suggested Dosage or Use: Take 6-12 drops in liquid or under tongue, 1-3 times/day.
