This product is not to be confused with designer drugs like "k2" or "spice", or even "Bath salts". It's not laced with anything synthetic. It's literally just the flowering tops of a plant that the Native Americans used. There was some confusion on this in the past so I had to make a note on the site to let everyone know that Indian warrior buds are literally flowers. They are close to Cannabis buds in terms of their composition not effects.



Plant Benefits

       This plant is commonly referred to as Indian Warrior, and actually produces buds like those of plants in the Cannabaceae family ( Hops and Cannabis ). Indian Warrior's scientific name is Pedicularis densiflora. The plant has been used by Native Americans for its believed medicinal properties. The medicinal effects sought after by Naitve Americans were the muscle relaxant properties that it's believed to produce. This partciular strain is the most potent of the Pedicularis species. The effects are believed to be sedative and tranquilizing and it is also used by herbalists and Natives for insomnia and nerve pain. The buds are of a magenta color. According to one academic source, "several classes of natural compounds have been reported within this genus and many of its species are well known to be employed in the traditional medicines of many Asian countries". So it also has use in Chinese medicine, or its genus at least! It has been one of the most searched pages on this entire website, so people must really like it.


According to my sources ( cited via scholar.google.com ), it contains the following potentially pharmacological phytochemicals: iridoid glycosides, phenylpropanoid glycosides (PhGs), lignans glycosides, flavonoids, alkaloids and other compounds. Vitro research suggest that some "monomer compounds and extracts from the genus Pedicularis have been found to possess antitumor, hepatoprotective, anti-oxidative, antihaemolysis, antibacterial activity, fatigue relief of skeletal muscle, nootropic effect and other activities." This research appears to be rather new, as this particular plant hasn't been all that looked into until recently. Lots of other herbs on the other hand have. I have a feeling researchers will continue to gain more and more interest into Indian warrior, and we'll get a more in depth scientific analysis of its potential and active chemical principles in the near future.

Tincture Use And Production

      Indian Warrior is a plant that's flowers or buds make an excellent tincture. Tinctures are a potent form of alternative medicine with a very lengthy shelf-life. You can produce your tincture by adding Indan Warrior buds to a glass jar, and filling it with twice as much liquor as buds. A high proof clear liquor is recommended, such as Vodka or Everclear. Allow this mixture of Indian Warrior Bud and Liquor to soak from 4-6 weeks. Keep the tincture in a dark place away from extreme temperatures. A Native American friend of mine likes to combine it with a powerful immune boosting herb according to herbalism called Schisandra.


It's one of many plants that Native Americans had in their medicine stash. Some plants that are simliar in nature to Indian warrior include: Passion Flower, Skullcap, Kava, and Valerian. According to tradition yhey are all generally sedative in nature, and having several other unique medicine qualities of their own as well. Don't be confused, thinking of it as a drug, or you will be disappointed. It does have a vast history of use and in my opinion is useful. Based off of the researchers who classified its phytochemical constituents as having certain types of effects, it may offer some interesting applications for those interested.


Experience Report

I noticed calming effects and an observable muscle relaxation all over my body. Tension seemed to fade into a total state of comfort. I can see how it may be useful as an aid for falling asleep at night, aka for insomnia. I've also found it a great thing for calming the mind. I've taken in many different forms. From tinctures, to grinding it up for a toss and wash, to the typical tea, i've tried every method. A toss and wash is when you just wash it down with a drink. For me, this method worked best. Thus far I can find no evidence that this plant was used in any biblically condemned fashion by any culture, although thus far is to be emphasized. Remember the rules of the scripture when dealing with any type of plant!


Effects:

(Based on the Native American tradition and my personal experiences:) Mild Euphoria, Mood Lift, Sedating on the nerves, Blissful on the mind, Body relaxation, Insomnia.

Ezekiel 47:12 "Fruit trees of all kinds will grow on both banks of the river. Their leaves will not wither, nor will their fruit fail. Every month they will bear fruit, because the water from the sanctuary flows to them. Their fruit will serve for food and their leaves for healing."

This is kinda random but, did you know that you can buy legal hemp derived THC products now? In 2018 the Hemp Farm Bill was signed into law. I put together a FAQ and safety guide for how to shop for the best new hemp products.



Warning, the difference between medicine and sorcery is that sorcery makes use of poisonous things, and tends to associate with graven images, idolatry, and false god worship, deliberate (knowingly), or not. Medicine is using what God has made for us in the way in which he made it for us while praising and worshipping only him for the gifts that therein are. For Godly herbs beneficial for us, see the herbalism section. The Ethnobotanicals section is 97% warnings against false doctrines and dangerous plants being mis-marketed and mis-used. This is biblical ethnobotany.
