Native to the Mediterranean region, Vitex agnus-castus is now grown throughout temperate regions worldwide. It is a small shrub with lance shaped leaves and purple flowers. Vitex is commonly referred to as chaste tree, taking its name from Greek legends associating the tree with chastity and faithfulness. Monks utilized this botanical in historic times. 

Vitex berry has been employed in traditional European herbalism for reproductive support for thousands of years and is currently used extensively in Germany and throughout Europe. The dried fruit, also called chasteberry, can be infused into herbal tea, cracked and sprinkled over food for a peppery spice, or tinctured. Vitex supports physical and emotional health during a woman’s menstrual cycle and in the transition into menopause.*
