I add ginger, cinnamon and cloves to my elderberry cough syrup, so much yummier! 😊

If you place the tincture under your tongue, the medicinal properties are absorbed directly into your bloodstream through the sublingual artery so it doesn't have to go through your digestive system first. This allows for faster absorption and healing! That's why you place tinctures under the tongue 😉 I hope you feel better soon!

I really like natural home remedies, there are so many things we have available to us all the time and we don't take advantage cuz we don't know what things are or how to prepare them . I for one would love to see more videos on this subject matter, if that's something you & Todd could do? Love ya both ❤️

Great video Rachel. Thanks for sharing and feel better soon.

Thanks Rachel. Super info!

I always have on hand basic stuff for conquering any infections like -ficer cider/ master tonic (recipe from rosemary gladstar) -echinacea tincture (susun s weed has good info on this) -lots of dried nettles (for making nourishing infusion -look susun s weed again) -non gmo vitamin c (i use sodium ascorbate from nutribiotics, suzanne humphries can tell u more about using it) -mms drops (look for example amandha vollmer for more info) -i really like swedish drops as well (can be bought ready made or tincture the ready packet of the dried herb mix, google maria treben swedish bitters) -oregabo oil is awesome as well, my favorite brands are north american herb and spice company (cass ingram) and global healing center (ed group) We use only herbs, homeopathic remedies and energy healing plus occasionally some other natural solutions for our health, and we are very happy with the situation 😊

We also ferment garlic in honey and make elderberry syrup (easier to get granddaughter to take it). I was taught by my homeopath that putting things under the tongue allows the lymph system to absorb the properties right into the bloodstream and that kept the properties of the herb more concentrated since it wasn't digested through the stomach. We also keep and take fire ciders (Rosemary Gladstar has a whole book of 100 recipes for the fire cider) and we sip ginger-lemon tea with honey daily during the flu season (which seems to get longer each year). I've seen Indian pipe growing but never knew it was so beneficial! Thanks for such great content! I hope you feel better soon!

I love making all these homemade remedies. We also have ghost pipe on our property. With our bees and growing garlic it’s amazing. Thanks so much for sharing.

❤how you gave God the Glory. Thank you for a great video.

I sure hope you feel better soon! Thank you for sharing your remedies with us. I take elderberry syrup, the garlic honey, ACV and a lot of herbal tea.

Love these! Thanks so much. I see they’re older, but I just discovered them. 😊

I have a very dear friend that lives in Nebraska. She makes elderberry texture and swears by it. Tfs and for peaking my interest. 👏🏻💕👏🏻

I really need to start doing more research about these. Right about now I need all the medicine 🙁🤒🤧. Putting it on my to-do list!

Thank you!

Thanks for sharing!!

Another awesome immune system booster is slice organic lemons, slice ginger root and layer in a mason jar with pure local honey all the way to the top. Let it ferment for 12 hours in the frig. I take a tablespoon twice a day during cold and flu season. It works like a charm and is super good for you! When layering do the lemon, then the ginger and then the honey till you have a full jar.

Hope you get to feeling better soon. Thank you for this info. I do use similar items. I have never heard of the Indian Plant, that was interesting. I will look that up. I need to look into your elderberry tincture as well. I do like the syrup but it would be nice to have a shelf stable remedy as well. Thank you so much for sharing. Blessings...................Patti

I’ve never heard of the Indian pipe herb before, that’s really cool! I have my first batch of honey garlic started a month or so ago 😃

GOOD ADVICE

Great video 👍

Love my ghost pipe tincture!!!❤

Wow, rewatching this and hearing you talk about your coworker going to ER with “some kind of virus”. 😯 Feb 2020! Foreshadowing

Thanks for sharing, that was interesting.

Hope you feel better soon!

A very informative video indeed. I will have to look into some of these things for sure. Thanks for sharing.

Try Feverfew for your headaches, it works great. I use it for arthritis and nerve pain as well.

Hope you feel better soon.

Have you considered using wild violets for headaches? I really love feverfew and ginger for headaches though too. Also for colds and flu type things I live Japanese honeysuckle, cats claw, Usnea, and ground ivy. Elecampane is another good for lungs.

Thanks for the video. Always informative. Taking medicine under your tongue is called sublingual. It's absorbed faster into your bloodstream than if you were to ingest it. Ive been wanting to try making an elderberry tincture. I wonder if you can make a coloidal silver tincture...🤔

Ghost Pipe is another name, for the Indian Pipe. There are different colours for the Indian Pipes as well. Herbal Jedi has a video on them, he takes you on a forest hike and finds and shows a few different plants in the same family as the Indian Pipe. Am sure there are other videos out there he is just the one I recall off the top of my head without doing a search.

Things absorb faster under the tongue

I have planted three elderberries in my food forest for medicinal use⚡️ Thank you for this video.

Aww, I’m sorry you’re feeling so awful. Thanks for the info. I’ve never heard of Indian Pipes, I wonder if they grow in the West?

Indian pipe, or ghost pipe (monotropa uniflora) is related to blueberry. Don’t overdo on dispensing in tincture form. It’s a POWERFUL nerve deadening plant!

I get alot of those 'pressure headaches' ! it is horrible and you do feel like your head is going to explode or fall off....:( We can buy Mersyndol in NZ which has a muscle relaxant in it which I find helps a heck of alot and has the added benefit of making me sleep REALLY soundly, and this is often enough to make the headache go away, but it is not uncommon for it to last two or three days. I have always suspected that it is something to do with the isobars/weather - an invisible trigger for them.

You sit it under your tongue because it gets directly into your bloodstream better/quicker. The mouth is like a sponge and there's viens right under your tongue

Hello oh my goodness why in the world are you doing a video when you are sick great information and I did learn something new about tinctures please go get some sleep and rest God bless stay safe and have a wonderful day

I had to stop taking my elderberry because there was a concern that it would aggravate or increase a cytokines storm in the setting of a covid-19 infection. Normally you want the cytokines effect that elderberry promotes, that’s what helps with colds etc. An oddity and something being researched is that many of the people that died from the covid-19 infection, on autopsy, were found to have evidence of a cytokines storm. I’m not clear on the mechanism that is actually deadly, but it is. It’s an over reaction that one’s body mounts in response to the illness. Long story, short (ok not so short). I’m now over a month post my covid diagnosis and I’m told that, even though I have pleurisy as a secondary infection, I am no longer infectious with covid. Woop woop. I actually love the taste of elderberry syrup. I squirt it in seltzer water or water kefir as a refreshing drink, and now I think it’s safe for me to do that...I think. I couldn’t get the Doc to promise I couldn’t get covid again, but he says it’s highly unlikely. . They think you get immunity, but not absolutely sure, or sure how long it may last. I’m hoping a life time. For the mean time I’m going to have a glass of elderberry seltzer while I’m mending my pleurisy and before I’m back at work taking care of patients that have the potential of infecting me again. Cheers

Can I ask how old your garlic honey is? I have some that is now a year old lol! I’m wondering if it’s still good. My research tells me yes but bring cautious. Thanks!

This dates back to 1832 in our family history...This is to treat upset stomach and to rehydrate you...It's a tea, made with catnip fennel, mint and chamomile...we have a tea pot that we use and each has a special cup that we only use when someone is sick, to make them feel extra pampered...Even the kids would drink it without honey or sugar...Now they give this to their kids.

I am starting to learn about homemade remedies as well. I am going on year two with no antibiotics for cold viruses and home healing through tinctures and syrups. In the past I would have to get an antibiotic to kick my cough because the cold virus would induce my asthma symptoms but I have been able to eliminate this with my homemade remedies and a little help from over the counter cold meds but no antibiotics so far which is great. Thank you for posting some of your remedies!! Can you list the name of the remedy book please when you get a chance?

Willow bark tinture for headaches

Thank you and feels better soon. Also what was the name of the book you mentioned?

How long does it take for Elderberry tincture to complete?

Great remedies how do you make the garlic honey remedie. Thank you

Can you use 100 proof moonshine when making tentures?

PLEASE READ!!!! When my family of 7 is sick I make what I call kitchen sink soup. My kids swear it heals them and it shows as they're better the next day too. I add chicken, chicken broth, beets, 3-4 kinds of beans, onion, lots of fresh and dried garlic, a tablespoon of turmeric, ginger, ground fennel seed, pepper, salt, carrots, parsnips, corn, and potatoes. Or whatever else I have that I can throw in. Then, I serve it with a spoon of sour cream mixed in each bowl. It truly helps!!!!

No idea about cross infection. Now no one else can use these.

We use raw horseradish. You can buy it in a jar or pulverize it yourself.

Tincture ? Here tincture is made using Vodka or Grappa, is it the same there?

Hello everyone I’m new to making homemade medicine. I live in Florida and unemployed but God is good. I was wondering if I could get someone to share some 11:45 herbs with me. I am willing to pay the postage and would love to have conversation about steps to making medical medication. If anyone are willing to help please reply back. Thanks and God continue to bless you all.

Sounds like you had radiation sickness
