Anti-Bacterial: Rue provides anti-bacterial properties that kill and prevent bacterial infections. Prepare as a tea to get these medicinal properties. Rue tea can help get rid of food poisoning, salmonella, and bacterial infections in the intestines, urinary tract, and colon.
Anti-Fungal: These properties help treat fungal infections like dermatitis, skin de-complexion, athletes’ foot and other fungal infections. If prone to fungal infections, especially athletes’ foot, you can apply rue before putting on your footwear.
Anti-Inflammatory: Rue can reduce inflammation from rheumatoid arthritis. A cup or two of rue tea every day reduces pain and inflammation in the joints and ease stiff muscles. Talk to your doctor before using rue as a remedy for arthritis.
