Pleuridium rupestre

Pleuridium rupestre, also known as rock cap moss, is a type of non-vascular cryptogam that grows on rocks and soil in cold, humid climates.

Traditionally, this plant has been used for its medicinal properties, including its antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects, which are thought to aid in wound healing and the treatment of respiratory issues.

The health benefits of Pleuridium rupestre are attributed to its ability to reduce inflammation and fight off infections, making it a potential remedy for conditions such as bronchitis and pneumonia.

In herbal preparations, Pleuridium rupestre is often dried and used in teas, tinctures, and infusions to leverage its medicinal properties.
