Generally considered a mild, gentle herb. Its astringent tannin content means it's best taken separately from meals containing iron or other minerals, since tannins can interfere with mineral absorption if taken together regularly. Limited safety data exists for pregnancy and breastfeeding, so caution is reasonable there. For topical wound use: this is intended for minor cuts and scrapes only — seek medical care for deep, large, or infected wounds rather than relying on a home compress alone.
