The Remarkable Phytoceutical Oenothein B, found in Fireweed

[@xXDieRoseXx]

i was looking for a detailed identification of the willowherb and just found this very detailed yt channel. thanks! there are not many videos about this herb in german. so do i need to be careful with the identification if i want to use the plant medicinally? this plant also has the ability to hybdrilize. regards

Thanks for watching. I think there is a lot of this plant in Germany. It doesn't form hybrids at all, unlike other Willowherbs. There are some Epilobium products on the market, but not many. Here is one, available from Amazon: www.amazon.co.uk/Fireweed-Epilobium-parviflorum-NATURALMA-Supplement/dp/B09KVH3BCD/ref=asc_df_B09KVH3BCD/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=697316259119&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=18096386734217539767&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9046182&hvtargid=pla-1731396031666&psc=1&mcid=92bb82ab828430aa817116903b96cb16&gad_source=1

🥺 Fytochem Products Inc already have a US patent (US6528490B2) covering medications containing Oenothein B. But I don't think Oenothein B can itself be patented, as a natural product. Thanks for watching, Ziggy! 😎👍
