It is known that guineas(fowl) are freat for eliminating ticks ..
Thank you, You deserve more followers.😊
I drink the dried yarrow as tea almost every day. I don’t mind the bitter taste which can easily be sweetened if necessary. However, I am not sure if the most medicinal properties are in the flowers or the leaves and stalks or the whole plant.
Thank you so much for this invaluable information. I have been hesitant to pick this plant despite its wide presence everywhere, because I didn’t know the many beneficial,uses it can be put to. I will use it from now on.
Super ! ❤❤❤❤ thank u 😊😊😊😊😊😊
how to harvest and do you also drink the yellow flower?
There is nothing similar to butterbur
Can you tell me what medicinal value butterbur has
Thank you
Thank you
Where can I obtain teasel prepared in a way that can be used in Lyme treatment? How does it need to be prepared? Can I grow it?
Check out Dr. Patrick Jones in the U.S.
Thank you❤❤❤❤❤

Why the misleading title? Totally inappropriate and unneeded
Any time the so called authorities tell you to be careful it's because it's good and they can't make money!!! Medical herbalist to me is an oxymoron 😅😅🤣🤣🤣 thank you
Exactly

I am so pleased to have found you. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Quite nice to have 2 Scottish u tubers advising on sweet nicely, as I live near Inverness.

Why is she so far away in the film
because she wanted to capture the field of butterbur… duhhh!
Hemlock, fairly toxic? If you eat it you will be dead in 2 hours! Ask the Greek Philosopher Socrates.
Pretty ❤
What parts are edible and medicinal?
The roots can be used to make an ointment or makes a vibrant red dye. Wouldn't use any part of the plant internally. Keren
Thanks for information! 😊
Thank yo so much for the info 🫶
The butterbur I find in Japan has rather small leaves. It is called fuki no tou and possibly also bog rubarb. In early March, the plant puts forth flower buds and these are often eaten in a few ways like by blanching in salt water and mixing with miso paste or in a fried tempura style. Young leaf stalks are also peeled and cooked as a side dish.
Thank you for this🙏
Cryptolepis is number one for killing Lyme... Not easy to find but effective!
Really interesting thank you
I'm not keen on the plant myself. It starts flowering at the height of summer and has flowers all the way to the firsts frosts and winter weather. 😒
Thank you, dear sister !
We are using lady, BEDSTRO (Lieve vrouwe bedstro) for manny years. When dry it gives a wonderfull smell in the house.
and antibiotics, ruin your gut health
Just starting to grow this, very informative 😀
Would you be so kind as to share any tips? All I could get was seeds and I’ve never grown anything before. Other than moist compost and placed in the sun, is there anything else I could do to ensure they survive and grow well? Thanks in advance.
@@rigajykra3159 Avoid overwatering and just plant them and watch them go. Plants know what they're doing :)
@@rabbitofthefuture3234 thank you
@@rabbitofthefuture3234 well they’ve taken root and have many little green shoots. They look quite small and frail. I hope they become more stout. I currently have them with humidity lids over them.
@@rigajykra3159 They will be fine. Plants know what they're doing. Look at a forest. Have a great day. 👍
Thank you for the information. Does meadowsweet have blood thinning properties like aspirin as well?
Thank you so much💓
Will it help afib?
Hi Alicia My honest answer is I don’t know. I have never prescribed it for AF so can’t talk form personal experience. Typically with AF blood thinners are used and if warfarin is in place you would have to monitor INR levels very closely if you were to use any herbs at all. I would suggest you might want to work one to one with a qualified Medical Herbalist who can assess your case and prescribe accordingly. Certainly as a cardiac tonic hawthorn may have its place but would suggest open communication with your cardiology team should you wish to use natural remedies. Hope this helps.
Thank u please teach us more..this is amazing to learn..thank u
Thank you for your positive feedback. I have plans to do more videos in the coming months.
nice video , thanx for sharing. great knowledge this herbal medicine
OOh, what brand is the Oolong Tea please, I use Teapigs green tea, love it, but can get that acrid taste x
Cool thanks
I used Weedborn CBD products and healed without any problems.
Have you used the plant Skullcap before? Scutellaria lateriflora. I was going to buy some to put in the garden.
I want to say a very big thank you to Dr okosun on UA-cam for using his herbal product to cure me permanently from herpes, and also curing my niece from HIV, if you are out there suffering from any disease kindly search for Dr okosun on UA-cam and get healed just as I
Thank you for your lovely feedback. Once the rainy cold weather moves on I’m planning some more filming.
Thoroughly enjoying all your videos! Very informative!
I’ve had it curried in a daal at a foraging curry night organised by a friend of mine at their local Indian Restaurant. It was PDG. Keren :-)
Have it growing in my Yorkshire garden. Flowers in February onwards - bees love it. Tastes a bit more bitter than official comfrey. Chopped up stalks lightly buried will root very easily, and it seeds itself prolifically.
