Another great video. I forage dandelions. One year, some friends ask us (a cousin and I got into wine making) to make Dandelion Wine. They picked the dandelions and cleaned them, so we made the wine. We split what was made. It turned out great. I made a dandelion salve. I keep powder root on hand. I also made a plaintain salve. I really got into foraging last year.

Stinging nettle is also good for bleeding. I had horrible menstruation periods and it reduced not only the flow, but the number of days. I had also lost my hair at one time and took the stinging nettle for it to grow. It came back so beautiful that I would get stopped by cosmetologists wondering who did my hair. It was only nature through God. I swear by it. And now I've learned how to make tinctures and found a boat load growing in my other field.

Such good advice to pick one or two and focus on them! When I first started trying to learn foraging herbs, I got so overwhelmed. I had to stop and refocus. The first year I focused on dandelion and Comfrey. Now Comfrey is part of my daily life and many of my friends ask for, my comfrey based salve last year I focused on Yarrow, which grows surprisingly well within 50 feet of where I live. Yarrow is one of my favorite herbs as I have found many uses for it. When you tincture it you can literally smell the medicine in it. Thanks for all you do!

Another tidbit about dandelion. The root is generally considered more of a cholagogue and bitter, while the leaves are considered more of a diuretic and bitter. And I agree with you about including the dandy plant in one's garden and landscape. When there are dandelions, there's often a need for loosening tough terrain.

I'm 67 and decided when the jabs came out that I'd never go to a doctor again (even though I get free VA). Have needed stitches twice (one was 2 VERY bad cuts from falling with a fragile drinking glass that I was holding that broke in the fall....landed right on it trying to break my fall), got a simple arm fracture (again, from a "forced" backward fall as I was trying to lessen the pressure from a nail that was going through my foot that I'd stepped on) and just used an ACE bandage and couldn't use my arm for weeks, and most recently had excruciating pain in my abdomen (the woman's area) and what I did was cut a clove of garlic the short way, like cutting it into a "pill". Took 2 in the morning and 2 at night and it finally got better.

Thanks for your information. I have a great book: 20,000 Secrets of Tea. Out of print but found online. I can't recommend enough. Very scientific breakdown of medicinal properties of plants, also by uses. I am so happy my comfrey plants survived my move. 😊 I would add, try to find older books, new data often errs on the side of caution because some fool took tons of an herb and got sick. Use common sense. I just looked at a newer revision of Carrots Loves Tomatoes and noticed a remedy wasn't listed in the newer book. Pretty soon nothing will be left! Great book on companion planting. 😊❤

Thank you for talking about the uses of dandelions. I have been learning about them the last year or so, but I really think this herb should be my best friend going forward! I have a skin condition that I have not ever been able to resolve (I eat very “healthy” and exercise regularly and do all the topical things etc) but since about 2 years ago I have started experimenting gout and my only predisposition is that I do have rheumatoid arthritis starting (runs in my family). I’m only 38 and I find my symptoms so strange, but I do think it could very well be linked to my liver. So Thank You for this reminder! I have some purchased dandelion tea that I am going to drink today and keep trying it daily to see if this makes a difference! ❤️🌼☕️

I'm about to look into the sheep sorrel. I had a rash and a virus at the same time (in my 30's I assumed the rash was poison ivy that somehow got on non exposed skin) but my lymphs got terribly inflamed, and I had facial edema... then my facial nerves started hurting to the point I could barely sleep in short naps for a few weeks, with a strange headache on one side of my head. Now I have partial bell's palsy symptoms... it seems like my rash might have been shingles and this ramsay hunt condition is on the rise in young people. *If anyone reading this gets a strange rash, start antivirals quickly especially if you've ever had chicken pox or cold sores. Those are both herpes viruses, that can do nerve damage like this later in life.

Eons ago I worked in a medical office. Poison oak/ivy or shingles that was near or on the genitals or face/eyes was an emergency that I could schedule for that day without needing to consult a nurse for permission to do so.

I would have loved to have had pictures after each time you brought up a new herb I went ahead and paused and went to go look that herb up so I would know what you were talking about. But I had COVID and I ended up losing my hearing in my right ear having respiratory problems heart failure and kidney failure not bad enough to be super like dialysis or anything like that but all of this they've told me that I obviously had had a virus. What I think happened is I had a reaction to the COVID vaccines I waited a year after I had COVID before I had the vaccine and then waited and had the booster and I think my body had a reaction to that. I was required to have the vaccines because I'm a nurse but now I am disabled because of the fact that I need oxygen 24/7. I am going to try several of these things as t's and see if it helps me at all. Thank you for this good video

There are apps available that can tell you what a plant (weed) is when you are trying to forage. Identification is paramount. I laugh when people call some of my plants 'weeds'; they just don't understand. They are valuable.

Vet Wrap 😉 Even the people who draw human blood know what vet wrap is. And yes, it's called Coban.

A great video, but none of the herbs you mentioned grow around me in SE Arizona, not even dandelion or mullein.

They are a good idea to have them. I just hope people understand when to take an antibiotic. I not for a cold. Just to understand what you have virus or viral

At one of our local Chinese grocery stores they have lots of traditional Chinese medicine and one of those medicines (in addition to the TCM ) was amoxicillin. It didn’t sound like in China you need a Dr to issue it. Anyway just FYI everyone

First of all I love your channel with that being said the nurse in me feels totally against the promotion of prescription antibiotics without the advice of a doctor and knowing the correct dosage for children and knowing the right ATB for each bug!! But again I love you guys!

Isn’t it detrimental to the overall supply if every financially capable family buys out the antibiotics “just in case” and others potentially or absolutely miss out? wouldn’t it be much fairer to ensure a local GP has enough for all, thus avoiding potentially destroying these going unused?
