- This is my homemade black drawing salve. It’s good for drawing infection out of minor cuts, scrapes, bug bites and slivers.
Black Drawing Salve Recipe.
Infused oil
A gallon of Broad Leaf Plantain cut up (see my apothecary video to show what it looks like)
A pint of marigold leaves cut up
A six inch strip of Birch bark
Place all ingredients in a quart jar and cover with Sunflower oil. Place in a sunny spot for 4 weeks. Shaking occasionally.
1 cup of infused oil ( see above )
1/3 cup beeswax
2 tablespoons of activated charcoal
2 tablespoons of bentonite clay
2 tablespoons of raw honey
1 teaspoon of pine tar
Heat oil slowly in a jar placed in a pot of water (double boiler). Then add the beeswax. Stir continuously with a bamboo skewer until wax is melted. Then add the charcoal and clay. Stir till incorporated. Remove from heat and add the honey and pine tar. Continue to stir until it starts to set up. Then transfer to half pint jars or tins to finish cooling. When salve has set up cap with lids and store in a cool place.

My grandmother spent most of her early life in poverty and she had all sorts of natural remedies. She always said pine pitch would heal a boil. It’s great to see what I heard as a child refined and improved! She also said squirt breast milk into a child’s eye for conjunctivitis! Thank you for your channel!
I remember my father-in-law had a small jar of this salve, he swore by it. All I remember was the smell! Great video :)
Thank you!
really like your ingredients in you black salve. I believe I will try to make some
Fabulous video. Thank you and God bless!
Black drawing salve (the OTC stuff) has probably saved my and my daughter's lives... I was prone to boils on my nether regions and legs, terrible staph infections, and my eldest daughter inherited the condition (once I hit 40 or so, and also lost weight/ate healthier, I stopped suffering from them). Black salve was always the thing to use. So knowing that I can whip up a batch is a comfort, considering the hard times on the way.
You have a lot of needed old time knowledge & are very good at presenting it in an easy to follow way. Thank you MR.
Thank you!
I freaking love plantain. Ive never heard of this particular salve or, at least, in this particular mix. It has all the good stuff so i absolutely believe it works. Sunflower oil rocks. Thanks MR
I’ve used drawing salve in the past and it works wonderfully well on embedded splinters and other painful things below the skin. It’s not always readily available in pharmacies, so this is a great video to find! Thank you so much for posting.♥️🌻
Your welcome!
I see more stuff that I’ve never in my life heard about, by watching you guys’s videos! Cool information, great video!
Wingin It with Irish Colleen thanks! That’s what I’m here for.
I definitely appreciate the information.
This...is...awesome! Black Salve was a staple in our home when I was a child and now you can't find it. You have to buy this Prid stuff. Doesn't work as well, but it's something. Thanks so much for this recipe! Love it. Shabbat Shalom and Blessings from Missouri!
Your welcome my friend!
Thanks for sharing this great recipe!
Thank, you so much, MR. Here is another valuable homemade remedy to add to my homestead apothecary. 🙂💖
If no access to antibiotics, this information could be life saving if you develop a wound or bad infection, especially during a grid down type of emergency. Wow, great video. 👍🇺🇸
Thank you!
My mother used this on many of our cuts when I was growing up. Its works amazingly well.
Many people have a jar or two of this hidden away. Nice to have on hand. Great video. Thanks.
Thank you as always my friend. Take care. 😎🐺☮️👍
Appreciate the info! Thanks so much my friend. God bless. 🇺🇸🙏
Thank you
Going to make a batch for myself. As a kid my dad would keep it for all our problems (wood splinters). Thank you for the recipe!
Great info, whenever l get a splinter or a small cut, my Nurse wife tells me that you shouldn't have any infection at all in your body, no matter how small,of course since l never listen her, l dont have it checked but if l can make this, its invaluable. Thanks Guru.
Wow you rock
I truly appreciate everything you teach
Wow, that's great!
IMHO with so many good videos you and Mrs MR should put these recipes, tips, and stories in a book.
I grandma would make something similar to this she swears by it and would put it on me as a kid but I never really thought it work all that well
Thanks for sharing, ill try that,me and my son make tinctures an salves, have a blessed day.
You as well!
Informative as always. I love all the things you teach us all!
Good information, thanks for sharing, stay safe, God bless !
ah yeah i have never seen this one. i have been using a lot of plantain in the years here in ohio its been very helpful to heal my skin
Great video
PA Mountains thank you.
Very interesting
Thanks for the recipe. I used the salve to get a dog hair out of my foot. My AmStaff has hairs like a dagger, and for some reason I couldn’t get it out this time with my scalpel.
I missed collecting plantain this year...😔
Thank you for this
Very nice MR. Now…can you show us how to use it? I mean, i know you probably take a fingertip amt and apply, but do you apply directly to wound? Or around wounds? Do you cover with gauze? How often for dressing changes? I really like this. Can it be applied orally? And can you apply to lips? Thank you
You would apply it like any other first aid ointment. I would not use it on lips, it would taste really bad.
@@ModernRefugee Thanks! I just got very curious of the application. It really looks like great stuff and by the comments here people love it and it works. So my mind went all short of ways. Thank you for your response..😀
My mom use to put it on us when we got splinters. It would always draw them out after a few of hours.
Great video. Thank you for sharing it with us.
I have one question:
How did you get or extract the pine tar?
If you have a farm store it will be with the horse (equine) items.
Great stuff, Modern Refugee
Thank you so much! I am always looking for more homemade, organic recipes. Can you tell me a little bit about the charcoal please? Thanks!
It’s activated charcoal. It can be homemade (although it is a long process) or bought at pharmacies or off the internet.
Modern Refugee. We used to use activated charcoal in the ER for overdoses. So I'm very familiar with it in that form. I didn't know if you used something different. Thanks! I'll work on getting all of these supplies.
I just wanna say that regular charcoal powdered up isn’t activated charcoal. Activated charcoal goes through a special heat process(sometimes chemical) to increase it’s surface area even more than regular charcoal. It does the same thing but the activated is much stronger.
My activated charcoal was treated with a calcium chloride solution.
@@ModernRefugee have you tried lemon juice before? Wondering how that works
@@taylorwright3071 that I have not.
Is this rhe equivalent of Ickthamol Ointment? I have HS... my immune system attacks my sweat and lymph glands causing frequent multiple infections and (after I had surgery, of course) I found that Ickthamol Ointment, sometimes called Drawing Salve, was suitable to control the fake infections (theirs no bacteria involved... just a bazaar immune response) and alleviates the pain, swelling and scaring. But, I'm having trouble finding it. If this is the same stuff... It would be a WONDERFUL addition to my natural medicine arsenal. 🙏
I cannot answer that unfortunately. I have never heard of that ointment. I put the recipe in the description so you know what the ingredients are, if you would like to look and cross reference.
YES, IT IS! It is exactly the ingredients in Icthymmol . But you can't find it anymore....you have to buy PRID. Basically (but not natural) the same as icthymmol salve.
@@PaulaJoDavis Correct.. I just did a cross reference of ingredients... and the clay you use is the "Ickthammol" or the active ingredient in the commercial salve. They "hydrolize in oil" (whatever that means) a benzionite slate. It probably means they soak it in Vitamin E oil. But I think you just saved me from surgery. Holy cow... this is fantastic!!!
Jea could you keep us posted on your recovery thanks
@@donnamills3646 Aww that's so sweet. I've been living with recurrent HS flares for 25 years now. They come and go. I had the surgery about 7 years ago in my rt underarm. The recovery was so brutal I opted out of the next 3 they had planned. I've been controlling the condition with black salve for the last 6 years. I still get the infections and they're still painful.. but I can reduce the duration and I've ended trips to the surgeon. The flares have become less and less frequent over time... leading me to believe that there maybe a "toxicity" component to the condition and not just a misfiring of the immune system. Needless to say I'm good as long as I can keep this salve in the medicine cabinet. 🙏💚
Very interesting! Will that salve reverse an allergic reaction to bee sting? Epi-Pens aren't going to always be available to ppl.
It won’t stop a allergic reaction, but it will draw the toxin out of the sting. That’s what happened with my wife’s sting that I mentioned in the video.
I don’t believe it will reverse an allergic reaction. As an allergic reaction is an immune system deal. This is more for drawing infection out of a wound. I would stock up on Benadryl, if an epi-pen isn’t available the Benadryl may buy you precious time
This is phenomenal, thank you! I tried a few months ago to get ichthamol cream, aka black salve, could only find it online and pricey! I have everything you added except pine tar, how would I source that? Thanks again.
Off pine tree
Cecil BeMee it can be homemade and it can be bought at farm stores in the equine section. You can also make the salve without it. Many recipes for black salve do not include pine tar, but I add the pine tar and birch bark to my recipe.
Plz do a video on wet canning for storage...we av limited to buy here in uk to do this and what is available it so expensive...much apreciated for this video too.. .
Other then mason jars and lids, you will need a hot water bath canner or a pressure canner.
@@ModernRefugee they are all sooo expensive now everybody is needed one...been watching canning for a long time but it scares the living day lights out of me lol...more so when my friends pressure cooker hit his ceiling and food was spinning out of it 😲 wonder how they did it bk in the days when canning and pressure cookers not available...might av to be brave and invest lol.. .my luck i will spend my savings and power will be cut off...thanks anyway for the reply...luv from the uk..keep safe
Alison Stewart for hot water bath canning, you can use a regular stock pot with a wire rack on the bottom. That would be cheaper. That would work for high acid foods like tomato’s or pickles. I hope this helps.
@@ModernRefugee could i jar up chicken broth too that way without burning house down...if you could do a video in using a stockpot much appreciated
Alison Stewart chicken broth would not work because it is not acidic. That’s the difference between hot water bath and pressure canning. Things like meat, soup and broth have to be pressure canned. I will do a video on the stock pot canner when I start canning my summer produce.
Wow, great information. I use a plantain/beeswax/olive oil salve for minor injuries with very good results, but your recipe has so many more beneficial ingredients! I am going to try it. Question on the charcoal-hard wood or pine? Thank you M R.
Nattering Springs hardwood. You can also use activated charcoal found at most pharmacies.
Thank you. I’m on it.
Where can you buy pine tar?
Tractor Supply
how do you make activated charcoal?
If you type in homemade activated charcoal in the search bar on UA-cam several videos will come up for your reference. That will be easier and quicker for you to see how it’s done. Peace.
What brand of sunflower oil do you use? Can any birch bark be used? I have river birch growing in my back yard. One last question, did you use the outer layer of bark or did you peel further down into the tree?
Authentic Menu is the brand of sunflower oil, I’m using right now. It’s marked non gmo. Sunflower oil is getting harder to find in recent months. Paper bark birch is what I use. I use the whole bark. I found a tree that blew down in a storm, and harvested it. I strip the bark down to the wood carefully and use the whole thing. I will also grade the bark for teas and the wood I use for bushcraft projects like kuksas. If I took bark from a living tree, I would only take the outer layer as to not harm the tree. I hope this helps you out.
@@ModernRefugee Thank you!
Thank you..I’m not stalking you I promise..lol..so it’s just plain marigold leaves you use not calendula leaves?
Either will work.
What are the ingredients
The ingredients are in the description
@@ModernRefugee Ok yes I saw them after thanks
I guess your not talking about carribean plantin
No a native plant here in the Midwest
Is this the same black salve that eats your flesh? If not i would change the name! People might get them mixed
No
What you are referring to is the cancer black salve, it’s a totally different thing.
Bacon fat can also "draw."
Alaska Prepper sent me over....I live in AZ and don't have those ingredients available here....would you be interested in selling me a small jar? I do lots of natural medicine & supplements.
If you are ever in Michigan, look me up and I’ll give you some.
@@ModernRefugee Don't really foresee that ever happening.....Thanx...God Bless
You have plantain growing even in AZ, it grows one every continent. Look at the edge of driveways, dirt roads, pathways, trails. Plantago major, the broadleaf plantain, white man's foot, or greater plantain, is a species of flowering plant in the plantain family Plantaginaceae. Common Name(s): Buckhorn Plantain, English plantain, Lance Leaf PlantainLanceleaf PlantainNarrow-leaf PlantainNarrowleaf PlantainRibwort PlantainStrap Leaf Plantain, Strapleaf Plantain or lanse (thin).
