Quince liquid extract was used historically for skin and hair care. The Quince is a tree, about the size of an apple tree, which grows wild in Persia. From there it has been much planted throughout Europe and North America for its fruit, seeds and as an ornamental. The fruit has an acid taste and produces a calming effect. The juice, when rubbed on the scalp; corrects thinning hair, prevents hair from falling out, and causes hair to grow again (where the roots were not dead). The seeds (or Quince Liquid Extract) are also used to make a tea for soreness of the mouth, gas, stress related disorders of the stomach and or intestines. Quince Seeds can be used as a gentle bowel cleaner and to clear up an irritated or dry cough. Apply to the scalp, at least once per day, for hair conditions as described above. For sore mouth conditions, hold 80 drops in the mouth as long as comfortable and repeat as necessary.
