This caught my eye as I am always on the lookout for cheap/free plants with good effects and D-camphor, cyanidin,  lauric acid, oleanolic acid, rosmarinic acid, myristic acid, rutin, linoleic acid, ursolic acid are discussed here.

 

Prunella vulgaris is a common herb in Britain...  The plant has a long history of medicinal use... According to the 16th-century herbalist John Gerard, ‘there is not a better wounde herbe in the world’. The 17th-century botanist Nicholas Culpeper wrote that the plant is called selfheal because ‘when you are hurt, you may heal yourself’.
