Rose Glycerite acts as a mild nervine, calming anxiety and jitteryness. Many people find it an uplifting and gentle anti-depressant.
It’s also anti-spasmodic so is a useful treatment for stomach or pre-menstrual cramps. Because of their antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, cooling and calming properties, roses, and therefore rose glycerite, can be quite helpful for feverish, flushed and upset children (and adults!)
Glycerine is a very sweet, colorless and odorless liquid that is useful for those who want the benefit of an herbal remedy without the alcohol. I buy vegetable glycerine from Mountain Rose Herbs.
