| Sunflower
seeds have diuretic and expectorant properties and have been employed
with success in the treatment of bronchial, laryngeal and pulmonary affections,
coughs and colds, also in whooping cough.
A tincture prepared from the seed with rectified spirit of wine is useful for intermittent fevers. It has been employed thus in Turkey and Persia, where quinine and arsenic have failed, being free from any of the inconveniences which often arise from giving large quantities of the other drugs. Sunflower oil is good for Moisturizing the Skin. |
