Thieves Immune Support: Hybrid of original Four Thieves Herbal Remedy and Immune Support
“The story goes that this formula was revealed in the 17th century by four corpse-robbers caught red-handed during the time of the great plagues of Toulouse (1628–1631). Their disregard for the contagion thoroughly astonished the judges . . . The archives of the Parliament of Toulouse record that: “During the great plague, four robbers were convicted of going to the houses of plague-victims, strangling them in their beds and then looting their dwellings: for this they were condemned to be burned at the stake, and in order to have the sentence mitigated they revealed their secret preservative.
The herbs traditionally associated with Four Thieves Vinegar are believed to offer various therapeutic benefits. There have been many variations of the Four Thieves blend, but here we see the recipe that is still on file.
The original recipe was as follows:
– a handful each of wormwood, meadowsweet, juniper berries, wild marjoram and sage
– 50 cloves
– 2 ounces of elecampane root
– 2 ounces of angelica
– 2 ounces of rosemary
– 2 ounces of horehound
– 3g camphor
This original recipe is made as an extraction in a 2:1 ratio (2 parts alcohol to one part herb). Most extractions are made at a 4:1 ratio which makes our tincture twice as potent. We then add our most potent antiviral blend of essential oils to make for a incredibly strong Body Tonic for prevention, recovery, or treatment for immune illnesses.
