Also known as the "European Ash," this type of ash can reach up to 45 meters in height. It is recognizable by its straight, grayish trunk and the black buds present on its branches in winter. It is found throughout Europe, Asia, and North America, in cool, damp woodlands and along waterways.

Ash (Fraxinus excelsior), a tree in the Oleaceae family, is renowned in herbal medicine for its numerous benefits. Used for centuries, ash is known for its diuretic, purifying, and anti-inflammatory properties. It promotes the elimination of toxins, supports the kidneys, eases joint pain, and complements weight-loss programs.
Let's look in detail at why it deserves its place in a natural treatment and how it acts on our body.
Ash leaves are rich in active ingredients that stimulate the body's elimination functions. It is one of the most widely used plants in herbal medicine to promote drainage of the body.
Ash acts directly on the kidneys. It increases urine production without irritating the urinary tract. This helps eliminate metabolic waste, uric acid, and excess water. This mechanism is particularly useful in cases of water retention, heavy legs, or minor urinary problems.
During a detox cleanse, the body seeks to eliminate accumulated toxins. Ash supports this process thanks to its draining effect. It effectively complements the action of birch, artichoke, or dandelion. It is an ideal plant for early spring or at each change of season.
Drainage alone is not enough: for a true detox, a purifying action is also necessary. Ash not only increases urinary elimination, but also acts on toxins circulating in the blood and tissues.
Thanks to its richness in flavonoids and mannitol, ash helps eliminate excess uric acid. This relieves pain associated with the accumulation of crystals, particularly in people suffering from gout or joint disorders.
Lymph carries cellular waste. If it doesn't circulate properly, these toxins accumulate in the tissues. Ash stimulates lymphatic circulation and helps decongest inflamed areas. It thus relieves swelling and contributes to better recovery after exercise.
Beyond its draining properties, ash is also known for its anti-inflammatory effects. It soothes joint pain and improves mobility.
Ash leaves contain compounds with properties similar to aspirin, such as salicylates. These active ingredients relieve chronic joint pain without the side effects of chemical anti-inflammatories. In cases of osteoarthritis or muscle pain, a course of ash leaves provides real daily relief.
Some people are prone to chronic inflammation: swollen joints, morning stiffness, and diffuse pain. Ash, by reducing water retention and modulating the inflammatory response, addresses the root cause of the problem. It helps restore a feeling of lightness and comfort.
The properties of ash are also useful in weight loss programs. It doesn't make you lose weight on its own, but it promotes elimination and reduces water retention, two classic obstacles to weight loss.
Many people confuse weight gain with water retention. Ash, thanks to its gentle diuretic effect, reduces swelling and helps to refine the silhouette. It is particularly recommended for those experiencing heavy legs or water retention cellulite.
Ash is stimulating without being depleting. It doesn't cause excessive mineral loss. Therefore, it can be used as a course of treatment over several weeks to complement a dietary rebalancing. In addition, its anti-inflammatory properties reduce muscle pain associated with physical activity.
