FAQ
Lady’s Bedstraw Tincture (Galium verum) is a natural herbal preparation made from the aerial parts of the plant using the traditional cold maceration method. This method helps preserve a broad spectrum of naturally occurring plant compounds that develop during the flowering period.
The alcohol content is carefully selected to suit the plant, allowing effective extraction of both water-soluble and alcohol-soluble compounds. This creates a balanced extract that preserves the plant’s holistic character and natural diversity.
The lady’s bedstraw used for our tincture is either grown on our farm or ethically gathered in the wild, always with care for the plant and respect for its natural habitat. It is harvested by hand at the right time, when the plant is at its most vibrant.

Lady’s Bedstraw (Galium verum)
Lady’s bedstraw is a delicate meadow plant with tiny golden-yellow flowers that form a soft, almost luminous carpet among the grasses when in bloom. Its presence is quiet yet noticeable – like golden dust caught between the stems. Galium verum is widespread across the temperate regions of Europe and Asia, where it thrives in dry meadows, along paths and in bright, open habitats.
It belongs to the bedstraw family (Rubiaceae). In herbal preparations, we use the aerial parts of the plant – the herb – botanically referred to as Galium verum, herba. The plant is harvested during flowering, when its fragrance is at its most distinctive and it carries the fullness of summer sunshine.
Lady’s bedstraw also has a fascinating history. Its English name comes from its traditional use as a fragrant herb for filling mattresses and bedding. Its flowers have a subtle honey-and-hay aroma and were also traditionally used in cheesemaking, where they helped with the curdling of milk. This connection with milk, the home and rest gives the plant a distinctive, almost protective character.
In traditional herbal use, lady’s bedstraw is most often associated with periods when people wish to offer the body gentle herbal support and a greater sense of lightness. It is frequently connected with the liver and bile flow, as well as with inner balance, particularly when something mild yet steady is desired. Traditional descriptions of the plant therefore often centre around support, flow and a sense of inner harmony.
Lady’s bedstraw is not a plant associated with forcefulness. Its strength lies in gentleness and consistency. In folk tradition, it was connected with softness, protection and the simple rituals of everyday home life. When you come across it in a meadow, it does not demand attention through boldness, but draws you in with its warmth – a reminder that some of the greatest changes in the body often happen through small, quiet steps.

Can I take lady’s bedstraw if my gallbladder has been removed?
Lady’s bedstraw (Galium verum) may also be used after gallbladder removal. It is a gentle herb traditionally associated with the liver and bile flow. After gallbladder surgery, bile continues to be produced by the liver, but it is no longer stored in the gallbladder, so the digestive system may need some time to adjust to this different pattern of bile flow.
In such situations, lady’s bedstraw is traditionally used as gentle herbal support. Because of its mild character, it can be introduced gradually, starting with a smaller amount and observing how your body responds.
If digestion remains sensitive after surgery, for example after richer or fatty meals, lady’s bedstraw can also be combined with more distinctly bitter herbs such as dandelion, artichoke or yarrow.
If you are taking medication, have an underlying health condition or have recently undergone surgery, consult an appropriate healthcare professional before use.
