General Information: Sunflower flowers are the bright and iconic blooms of the Helianthus genus. These stunning flowers are native to North and South America and have been cultivated for their beauty, symbolism, and various uses. Sunflower flowers are characterized by their large, golden-yellow petals surrounding a dark center filled with edible seeds. They are widely appreciated for their cheerful appearance and association with warmth, happiness, and positivity.
Medicinal Use: Sunflower flowers offer several potential health benefits, although they are not commonly used for medicinal purposes. However, in traditional herbal medicine, infusions or extracts made from sunflower petals have been used to soothe skin irritations, such as sunburns or insect bites. Additionally, sunflower flowers are rich in antioxidants and may have anti-inflammatory properties that support overall health and well-being.
How to Use: Sunflower flowers can be used to make infused oils, teas, or tinctures for topical or internal use. To make a sunflower flower infusion, steep fresh or dried sunflower petals in hot water for 10-15 minutes, then strain and drink as a tea. Alternatively, sunflower petals can be steeped in a carrier oil, such as olive or coconut oil, to create a soothing oil for massage or skincare. An example of how to use it would be to apply sunflower flower-infused oil to sunburned skin to reduce inflammation and promote healing.
