The original formula of the elixir was lost, but two centuries later it was rediscovered by the Swedish physician Klaus Zamst, who described the mixture “Swedish bitterness” with the following words: “It can be said, and it will not be cunning, that there is practically no such disease in the world in which “Swedish bitterness” will be useless or will not be able to create an effective basis for traditional methods of treatment.”
In 1980, the famous herbalist Maria Trebe discovered the recipe of Dr. Zamst and made it famous all over the world, writing a book “Health from the pharmacy bestowed on us by God: tips and experience with herbs”.
