Blessed Thistle is a weed with prickly leaves and yellow flowers surrounded by purple spikes. This Mediterranean plant flourishes on dry ground and in open areas. The leaves and flowering tops are collected in summer.

Originally used in Ayurvedic medicine in India and Bhutan, the plant was introduced to Europe in the 1500’s, where it became known as "blessed" for its use in treating the plague. It was said to relieve heart pain and inflammation in the 16th and 17th centuries. Monks grew Blessed Thistle as a cure for small pox. Nineteenth century herbalists prescribed an infusion or tea, made from the plant tops, as a treatment for fevers, and liver and respiratory ailments.

Blessed Thistle is known to help digestive disorder caused by insufficient secretion of stomach acid. It can also be helpful for loss of appetite, upset stomach, and gas.
