This was a great video on natural cures long forgotten . I was under VA and public medical care for 6 years and almost died 4 times due to ignorance and being given the wrong meds or wrong dosage . I was told I may live another 5 years . So I started natural medicine and homeopathic self treatments , that was 30 years ago and I'm still kicking it today . 👍

Rockefeller believed in the power of education to promote wealth and well-being in society, though, so when the American Medical Association Council on Medical Education approached Carnegie in 1906 he was highly supportive of its efforts to restructure medical education in America. They forbid natural remedies to be taught anymore

He is actually my 4th great grand uncle (in law) and was definitely one of the county's most important pioneer residents. He had a lot of fascinating facts and accomplishments in his life that I will leave you to explore if you are interested in his vast lifestory.

Hi JD! God gave us herbs and it states it in the Bible. God gives us the use of plants and herbs for curative care, both physical (2 Kings 20:7; Psalm 51:7) and emotional (Psalm 45:8; Genesis 43:11). Medical companies and majority of doctors don’t even want to talk about natural remedies or cures. The Bible even speaks of cannibas oil. So many references to herbs in the Bible. I remember my grandmother’s Bible and a passage she had circled in it about snuff. My grandmother dipped snuff and a person had chastised her for dipping. I didn’t even know she had circled the verse in the Bible till she had passed, but I did know about her being chastised for dipping. If you didn’t see her dip, you would never had known she did. What a perfect story this glorious day and I would like to thank you for all your hard work. Have a very blessed weekend!

JD, thanks for the story my friend. On a side note I live next to the reservation in Swain and Jackson County. Until her passing a few years ago I would visit with an old lady, a medicine woman from the Cherokee. She treated 5-6 generations until the very week of her death. She was well over 100 years old but didn't know exactly. Her medicinal tonics, rubs and tinctures for what she collected herself was truly remarkable. Her knowledge was probably lost forever as her daughters, granddaughters, great granddaughters and great great granddaughters were unwilling to learn the wisdom of this fine ancient healer. Times have passed my friend and the knowledge of letting the woods heal you is almost a lost knowledge. Unfortunately.

@buddydean6637 29 күн бұрын

@leannbrown7405 There are elders in all the Nations(reservations) that still adhere to the healing of nature. But it's hard to gain their trust as they see the white man as no believers. This knowledge needs to be tapped and passed on before they are all gone. Go to a Nation, not for the tourist part of it, and find some elders sitting on a porch or under a tree and stop and talk. Listen hard and retain what they say. You might be surprised.

Is this how we, today, know about ,Goldenseal? Through the Native American person who offered shelter in the cabin? Don't know much about the benefits of the other herbs which he listed, but Goldenseal is definitely a highly beneficial herb. In our time now the best source is protected areas of Maui. Across the Southeast US this plant is in danger of extinction, from people collecting too much of it. Goldenseal powder dissolved in water tastes terrible. The effect of it however, is astonishing. Goldenseal is antibacterial and anti-viral. I have found it extremely interesting, to be hearing about its introduction to the modern world. Thank you very much for this video.

I have never heard it called Kings evil or scrofula until this video. I will turn 76 years old next week. When I was a child I visited a tiny house that had a woman inside it who was dying from TB (tuberculosis or consumption). After she died, that tiny house, and everything in it, was burned to prevent the spread of TB. The woman was buried in a grave not burned in the house. I have had the TB test many times. However, they don't test for it very often anymore. TB, tuberculosis, consumption, scrofula, or Kings evil has returned. The vaccine that kills tuberculosis doesn't work as well anymore; because, the disease has changed. We may see the spread of the Kings evil again.

Scrufula a Lymph node tuberculosis is different from pulmonary tuberculosis in that it is not spread to others through contact because this bacterium only resides and develops in the lymph nodes, not spreading out. 50 years ago my wife had scrofula for at least 3 years before it was diagnosed properly.

My 3rd great grandfather, "Doctor" Henry Teters, was one of those quacks. He went up and down the Mississippi on a riverboat selling "Dr. Teter's Cure-All" in the 1870' & 80's. It was said that he never cured anyone of anything but sadness -and, boy, were they HAPPY! Apparently he was a doctor at the Battle of Shiloh in April of 1862 where his services were more genuine and really did save wounded soldiers' lives -both Yanks and Rebs. My great-grandmother "Lizzie" Arter from a different branch of the family died in 1899 at age 27 due to "consumption" seven months after the birth of her fifth child. Her father served as Ohio infantry and later Illinois cavalry for the entire Civil War. To the best of my knowledge Lizzie is my only family member ever to have the disease.

@jeb6314 28 күн бұрын

Oh, and Dr. Henry's granddaughter Etta Editha Teters, my great-grand mother, was known for recipes she learned from her grandfather. Her favorite was skunk grease, camphor, and lard. It was made from the scent glands of skunks. Dad always said if you were sick and she came up the hill with that concoction, you either died on the spot or immediately got well and did a full day's work because you didn't want that stuff shoved down your throat.

Actually most modern vaccines are extremely safe and effective. They're also crucial to urban and even suburban populations who can't exactly be expected to forage for their own medicines either. But again, that ounce of prevention's worth a pound of cure of any sort. People can't gorge themselves on bad 'food' and then act all surprised when they get diabetes in many cases. At the end of the day, we basically are what we eat. Most people don't want to hear that, and I enjoy a little Guinness myself at times. Just most things in moderation and some not at all.

He didn't sale his copy of the recipe did he? That's amazing how mother nature will provide just about everything a body needs. Thanks for sharing this JD .

I’m not sure what happened to the recipe, it literally disappeared

I find that if you use the correct natural medicine in the correct dose, it often works better than what the Dr wants to give you. And you know, it’s weird. We live in the age of computers, but I’m still making natural medicines in my kitchen. Some things never go out of style I guess, a good cure will always stand the test of time. Love your videos, thank you!

I wish I knew the recipe I would make some. It might just be the cure for the next pandemic. 🙂

That was a great story JD, I always feel like we're all sittin' with you on the porch, or next to the woodstove in winter. History is so important, thanks for all you do to educate. Much love ❤

Thank you Diane! I do my best to tell these stories in the same spirit of the old timers who I learned the art from.
