What is Angelica archangelica?
In classical homeopathy, angelica is not one of the preferred remedies; in modern homeopathy, however, the importance of Angelica has increased.
It is used for all kinds of digestive problems. The essential oils and bitter substances contained in the plant contribute to the formation of gastric acid and bile juices. The remedy helps with flatulence, loss of appetite and feeling of fullness, but also with exhaustion and anxiety.
Applied externally, Angelica archangelica is said to have an antirheumatic effect.
