Borage (Borago officinalis)

Borage:
It has been used for kidney and bladder problems, to soothe sore throats, to help reduce fevers, and as a poultice to soothe skin inflammations. It is also thought to help head colds, bronchitis, and respiratory infections, and in general because it is an anti-inflammatory. The flowers are used in infusions for all the listed above. Borage is also used for culinary purposes.
