You're very welcome! When I was learning different plants and watched UA-cam Videos, that's one thing that bugged me. So many people don't focus on the plant enough I feel and focus more on rambling and showing other things. It's because of how it bugged me that I film my videos this way. Thank you for the feedback!
It is by far The most effective treatment for infected painful gum infections, nothing worked except this for me. I chewed the leaves of the washed long leafed plantain and placed it on my gums all day and it drew out the infection beautifully and the swelling went down.
@@GraceInnovations I forgot to tell of another treatment which I have used for infected gums and I have used this because it's easy to obtain and that is ground cloves with tumeric . I have brushed my teeth with this and you can make a toothpaste with it mixed with coconut oil and baking powder and also rinse with it.
My grandmother (In Japan) told me about this plant 40 yrs ago. I used to play with the leaf, pulling the leaf apart and keeping the veins intact. Now in Hawaii I see it everywhere in my yard, thanks for the reminder.
Basically these plants are brother and sister they both have the same properties but the reason people say slender leaf or Lanceolata is more effective is that it’s more beneficial internally whereas the major is more focused externally you have right idea use both together you cannot go wrong well done love this knowledge and more of us need to wake up and realise the kind of pharmaceutical drugs we use whilst we trample all over these so called weeds and not notice what they are and do 👍🏿
I've known about plantain for a long time. However, I still get confused in the spring when the baby plants come up. Plantain looks a lot like the medicinal plant, centaurium erythraea. Can you explain ??? Also, in general, it would be nice if you told us a bit about how to prepare the medicinal plants for their usage internally and externally.
I tried to grow plantain in pots at home by transplanting it from the ground. The plants didn't survive, people with a yard are so blessed to have wild greens growing there :)
You're very welcome! Yes it is! That's why I do my identification videos this way because when I was learning the subject I never found a video that explained the plant and showed it. Thank you for commenting Woken Rage!
I❤ your videos! Thank you for sharing this information! I found a bunch of Plantain on a trail behind my apartments and I will be harvesting some leaves and leaving the roots so it can keep growing!!! ❤❤❤
I just picked some broad leaf Plantain for my guinea pig. She loves the dandelions, clover and plantain from my yard...our whole yard is a huge garden of edibles. :)
I have rabbits and they love those plants too. It’s lovely to have them for a balance in my garden. They eat the plants I remove from my garden and they fertilize the ground. I use a lot of plantain and dandelion, nettles, Mullin etc for food and medicine for both me and my animals.
Thank you for the wonderful information. When i was much younger in the 1960's my brother had to do a plant identifiication project to earn a cub badge. This was one of the plants but that was all he did was identify it by name. I never knew how valuable the plant was health wise.
I read somewhere, that Plantain Leaves were the first type of food that U.S. Soldiers fed to Holocaust Survivors, after they were rescued from the Concentration Camps. Obviously, they needed further nutrition, but it's amazing to me, that our Soldiers used what was initially available, nearby.
Very informative! I have them all over my yard. I need to find out how to make medicine from it because I saw a video that had me thinking I could eat them like greens or a salad.
My Grandson has been working with putting in fiber optics and is around Poison Ivy all day long. I made him chapstick containers and Altoid containers of Plaintain Salve to help him and he informed me that it worked to keep the nasty effects of poison ivy away! 💕
I wish it was!! They look similar but it is Duchesnea indica, a look a like to the wild strawberries. It is edible but tasteless, tastes like water, produces a fruit that looks similar but instead of a white flower like a true wild strawberry it has a yellow flower instead. Thanks for commenting speakerwild11!
Awh, that sucks. I've actually heard about these look-alikes before, but have never seen them. I live in Canada, so perhaps they have less tolerance to the cold? Perhaps a trait it inherited from being native to India? I might be completely wrong lol, just taking guesses.
I would believe that you're correct on that as India doesn't have too many cold places to my knowledge, except the mountainous regions. It's actually good you don't have them, they absolutely choke out my lawn, spread by creeping root stocks as well as seeds, and give the real wild strawberry a bad name because when most people see them they try them and say that wild strawberries are bland, when the real deal is strong and much better than store bought IMO. I call them baneberries as they are a bane to my yard, lol!
They are extremely annoying when it come to lawn care, often choking out plants I like to eat like chickweed, lambs quarters, violets, etc. It's a constant battle with keeping them back. I don't know exactly how fast they grow but they do seem to grow rather fast, maybe just not so good at invading other plants spaces, but I have also heard that when people find them they find a whole lot of them. Though I don't find them much at all in my area but I am in the south end of their growing range so that's to be expected.
So interesting. When I lived in the high dry desert of Nevada I never did see this plant anywhere. I had learned about it I had looked for it but I had never found it. Now that I have moved to the ozarks, I find it growing wild all over my yard and didn't even pay attention at 1st period I also have found the narrow leafed version of plantain all over The yard as well. Time to really learn about it now that I have it
Fun fact that whole plant can act as a small binding if you get a cut on a finger in the woods. Take one leaf and wash it off before crushing it down. Press the crushed leaf into the cut or wound and lay another leaf over it Then wrap with the seed stem or string. By the time you get home it will be closed and done
Great info for identification. Very Clear. Really like your presentation. Have subscribed. We have both these Plantains. Southern Hemisphere.....New Zealand Thank you
If ChrisFix did wild edible plant videos haha. But seriously, amazing, thank you. Quick question: How do you prepare it differently for medicinal, or for food?
Can you explain how to use it? Like in a tea? Can we dehydrate them and use later? Like how to actually use them will be very helpful. But wonderful identification video!
I've never tried it so I can't say. I very rarely eat this plant but when I do it's in the very early spring while the leaves are unfolding. Afterwards they get rather bitter and stringy. I use it more for medicine than food and use it to help keep my skin clear from acne, or for topical infections like when one of my cysts abscesses.
I know this video is 4 years old by now but, if anyone has the information, what exactly are the uses of this plant? I mean, to treat say a sore throat, for example, do you eat it, dry it and make a tea, render it down for a syrup, etc? For a cut or sore, do you make a poltice, an ointment, a tincture? Can you lay/press a whole leaf (cleaned/boiled of course) to an open wound? Is there a limit to how much you use or can ingest? Could the plant be dried, ground into a powder to be used in various applications such as a tea or should it be left more whole and strained out? These are the details I'd prefer after the plant is identified. Not just a quick list of its potential uses with no details on how to actually use it. Any answers and detailed information is greatly appreciated.
Plantain has loads of uses, too many to list here and it would take a rather long video specifically about that to cover most of them. Some good quick information though more pertaining to your questions: Leaves (you can use the whole plant but since the leaves grow back I normally recommend using those so they're always available) : for cuts that are small; the macerated leaves will work fine usually. You can just rub them on it. Poultice will also work and so will a balm or salve. Leaves can be used fresh or dried. You can also make a wash by decocting the leaves, (boiling in water for 10 minutes). This wash can be applied to bug bites, rashes, hives, or to help clean larger cuts or puncture wounds. It can also be applied to acne or just used to help clean the pores. This decoction can also be mixed with honey and drank to ease inflammation of the throat. The leaves, and whole above ground portion, can be used in bathwater after macerating and used as a soak to ease joint and muscle pain/inflammation. Seeds: can be used as a psyllium husk replacement to regulate the digestive tract. They can also be used in the same ways you'd use the leaves. The root hast many of these same uses but only use it if you're okay with killing that plant. There's no worries of hurting an endangered species because it's extremely prolific and in the States it isn't even native, so basically go ham with it if you want to. The leaves can be eaten too but they're rather stringy and I find the flavor to be unenjoyable but some people really like them. For food you can eat it everyday to my knowledge though it is astringent so it's probably not something you'd eat 3 pounds of a day but in a normal diet it's perfectly safe. For internal medicine it is also very safe because it's extremely mild and my knowledge it doesn't carry the risk like Echinacea does where a few weeks of usage starts to be negative. However, like most medicine, if used when needed and appropriately it's perfectly safe. Hope this helps some!
Ribwort plantain is the narrow leaf plantain. The other one is broad leaf plantain. I grow both for minimising pains from stings (eg, from nettles, insects, snakes, mosquitoes, minor cuts, etc) by rubbing the leaves’ juices on parts affected. And for making organic fertiliser. Not for eating; the leaves are too bitter but the seeds are ok, just like dandelions are dreadfully bitter except for its purely yellow parts.
Wild strawberry around the narrow plantain. Have you made a video? If not. Please do so. I took it out of my yard and put in pots and only get tiny berries.
Before I knew this plant's name I called it Lawn Cabbage. I still do. I eradicate it without mercy in my lawn and dirt/gravel driveway (the ONLY thing I remove). Make up your own names for plants you don't know, then you'll have something to attach the correct name too when/if you learn it. Don't even get me going about Thorny Usurper*... (*edit: Korean Barberry)
Your suggestion to make up names for unknown plants , then later attach the real name, is brilliant. I have called tools my own names at our shop and now all I need to do is attach the real names to the sets of Snap On dog bones, the bird beaks, finger pinchers, biters, grippers, adjustable grippers. I have never taken that step. It’s scary but I think I can do it.😊
Thanks for clear explanation. We also use it to stop pain stinging nettle. We squeeze the the little juice a leaf gives directly on the skin where stinging nettle burns. Also leave leaf on for a while is soothing for children. Thanks :)
For usage, yes. On broad leaf plantain the seed spike can be used like psyllium husks, they're in the same family. On narrow leaf plantain they cannot.
You could do several things to preserve them. Easiest ways are to dry them or make tinctures, but balms or salves work well too. I prefer to use them dried or in a balm or salve, but some people I know like making tincture from the leaves. Hope this helps a bit and thanks for asking Sherry!
Not to my knowledge, it's generally considered invasive and something to kill. You might be able to find seeds online or in your area depending upon where you live. Most people don't want it in their yard or garden so they're happy to let you take it.
So much clearer and more focused on the plant and more informative than many videos I've watched. Thanku

@@clairrollings3988 I've heard of using cloves, I'm gonna have to try that. I've stopped using flouride all together and my teeth already feel better!
I spent a whole summer pulling broad leaf plantain out of my yard when I first bought my house. Didn't know that I had a pharmacy in my backyard.
I'm picking it constantly too. Made a salve
🐴 love it!
My grandmother (In Japan) told me about this plant 40 yrs ago. I used to play with the leaf, pulling the leaf apart and keeping the veins intact. Now in Hawaii I see it everywhere in my yard, thanks for the reminder.
Their are medicine! If you have in yr yard, pull the whole plant and clean well n dry it! Good for Urethritis！just use that to spoil water n drink it!
Your identification is so thorough and informative that I’m always happy to watch them.

my father used it as eyedrops and so do I..did't know it had so many uses..Thanks for the info.
could you please explain the purpose of using it in the eyes?
We wash eyes with it in Trinidad ,did not know could b eaten
Very informative! I have them all over my yard. I need to find out how to make medicine from it because I saw a video that had me thinking I could eat them like greens or a salad.
You can eat them like a salad. I do. It is slightly intense to eat more than one or two at a time through. More of a snack. Helps my lungs
We eat the leaves by cooking plainly. I love its taste
Me.too! There is a never ending supply...
Yes, I enjoy having an abundant supply of fresh greens for dinner without the bother of shopping or tending a garden.
You have a great way of explaining all the details of plantain. Very clear and concise. Thank you! Subbed.
You're very welcome Rich I'm glad it helped you out a bit! Thank you for the sub and comment!
What an incredible plant. That was really really interesting. I learned a lot and you have a new subscriber :)
It is an amazing plant and I'm glad you found it interesting. Thank you for commenting and subscribing!
Awesome! I'm going to do the same thing when I make medicine with this plant. Use both of them together. Very nice video.
It's definitely much stronger using the two of them, and it works well!

Hello I am looking for chaff flower(achyranthes) plants. Do you know where is it in UK?
Very new to this, and I was wondering what is the ribwort?
Ribwort plantain is the narrow leaf plantain. The other one is broad leaf plantain. I grow both for minimising pains from stings (eg, from nettles, insects, snakes, mosquitoes, minor cuts, etc) by rubbing the leaves’ juices on parts affected. And for making organic fertiliser. Not for eating; the leaves are too bitter but the seeds are ok, just like dandelions are dreadfully bitter except for its purely yellow parts.
Wild strawberry around the narrow plantain. Have you made a video? If not. Please do so. I took it out of my yard and put in pots and only get tiny berries.
I have done a video on it, a short one but a video nonetheless. It's titled: this is not wild strawberry.
Can you preserve this ? So in the snowy winter months I will have it .
Plantain weeds are evergreen.
Thank you. Great info❤️

For usage, yes. On broad leaf plantain the seed spike can be used like psyllium husks, they're in the same family. On narrow leaf plantain they cannot.
