I’m from Canada and our yard is full of them. My husband has allergies, so I started giving him nettle tincture before bed. I was shocked to notice within a couple of days he had quit snoring. He snored so loud it kept the house awake. I’m assuming his snoring was caused by allergies. That was a major bonus.
Tammy: which province are you in? I am in Toronto and I am going to try look for it, however, I am finding a lot of lambs quarters everywhere. Perhaps, I didn't notice it before but this is the first time I have been spotting it. Maybe because I have vitiligo and had been desperately looking for it. It is one of the foods very good for vitiligo . ❤
For me personally, I give all the glory and praise to the Most High, our Creator!!! HE knew and HE knows what all of His creations need in order to stay healthy and strong. It's the adversary who is trying to poison us all. It amazes me how people, not Doc Jones, give glory to a Big Bang. Stinging Nettle....amazing! Outside is our real farmacy! Thank you for this video Doc Jones.
You are so on point. There is nothing better than the medicine God gave us. It is so sad that most people think herbal medicine is hocus pocus or snake oil.
It was planned along with everything else. Get people away from the plants God created for us and onto their big pharma whose side effects kill you. They are into depopulation.
What a blessing that technology allows us to sit in front of a fantastic teacher to learn about the importance of plants in our lives! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
I used a nettle tea, multiple times a day, for a week to treat a UTI and then realized I had not had a cup of coffee for that entire week. Usually I would get severe migraines (from withdrawal) but this plant was revealed as a anti inflammatory also after I did more research. Definitely a fan of this plant!
If you know anybody who’s human and has a body. I love that. I had no nettles on our property so I bought some seed last fall. They wintered out in a flower pot and survived the winter and the critters. I now have four plants about a foot tall. I’ve already harvested some leaves for tea. My sister is human and has a body. I will share this with her. Thank you
I emailed Doc Jones about what the heck to do with my accidental stinging tincture! I tinctured it fresh and didn't let it wilt first. After 6 weeks I took it out of the jar and it stung me!! I'd preserved the sting! I coffee filtered it 5 times and I can still feel a zing in my tongue. So anyway, topically feels fine, no sting. It works a treat on arthritic pain and even a fresh injury that's swelling. Reduces swelling and pain really fast! Get it on soon enough and you'll avoid bruising. So far on a few friends the tincture lasts 5 days for joint pain.
3 years ago I had severe kidney failure. I started taking nettle 3 months later I had moderate kidney failure. 3 more months I had slight kidney failure. I swear by that herb.
@@YodiJohsonna Hi, I took one pill in the morning one pill in the evening. I also took Buchu leaf and cranberry one pill in the morning one pill in the evening. It does work, I am LIVING proof.
Cant' have enough from your teachings and suddenly you come up with funny clip, which makes me laugh and keeps an smile on my face for a while! I use stinging nettle in all our soups. so appreciate for all your teachings! Can't wait to take your entire course of herbalism. Am so passionate about all wild plants and we've using and eating them for 3 years. We no longer buy spinach or kale from stores, we eat those AMAZING wild plants and noticed so much difference, we are over 50yrs old and have minor aches here and there when eating the wrong foods but when eating these amazing foods, we feel better than ever! so we try our best to eat real foods daily.
I started out investigating herbs for my stomach because my prescription caused a terrible kidney infection and nettle is one of the ingredients in my tea. I made sure I had recipes because as always you need to be careful and now I have numerous recipes that have been helping me with my health and I am 74 years old.
Stinging Nettles grows extremely easily too. Even easier than mint in my experience. Years back I dug up one from the woods and put it in a 3' x 1' wood planter. It easily filled the entire planter and out-competes any other weed. After winter it comes back on it's own each year. I only need to get some gloves and pull out some of the plants each year to give space for new growth to occur and throw in a little fresh dirt.
I have been using Stinging Nettle on and off over a year. I have done alot of hand smacking with it for RA pain. It does help. I pressed my first Nettle Tincture today! So pleased! I am pretty new to all the plant foraging and being so greatful for what God has provided for us to heal. And for great teachers like you Dr Jones to educate us with your knowledge of the fabulous plant world.. I really appreciate your generosity. . 😊
This is my favorite herb! 😃😋 I grow it for myself as well as for a few of the butterfly species that use it as a host plant. 🐛🦋 I’m a very happy and blessed graduate of Dr. Jones’ school. If you’re on the fence on whether or not to join in on learning more in depth lessons, I’m here to tell you that you’ll be glad you enrolled! 😃
I love love stinging nettle, specially in soup form. Last year I bought the plant on line, because I couldn't find it here in Portland Oregon. I make tea, soups, now I am into making a tincture.
Thank you so much for putting the name of the herb in the title. I hate videos that tease with things like 'This is the cure for .....' and then you watch half the video before you know what it is. It loves people 🤣
I planted stinging nettle around my garage and it went crazy. When we added on to the garage, I dug it all up twice, covered it with rock salt and still have a couple of spots of new growth! I did plant a raised bed with it because I find it helps tremendously with my food allergies. I add it dry to my herb tea and it has also helped with the arthritis in my wrists. I also dry it, crunch it up, and put in soups. The only thing I have found to take the sting away is a calendula cream I make.
Thanks for the great video, my wife is from central Kenya and they use the dried nettle powder in mashed potatoes with corn and it's so good. Turns it green and they call it Mokimo. Subscribed for the high quality presentation
I'm in that central starred part of Canada, right above North Dakota. I can confirm the presence of stinging nettles. However, they're not as prolific as I would like. Just small crops here and there. I'm trying to not pick too many from each spot. I'm from the UK and had nettle tea's soups etc growing up.
I have purple dead nettle growing in my yard. While it tastes like dirt, the tea takes care of my allergies. I've not taken an OTC allergy med in a couple of months since I've been drinking the purple dead nettle tea.
dig the nettles up by the roots, with gloves on the whole plant is a medicinal powerhouse, and if you also dig up dandelions in flower, by the roots - and the roots get deep, it is dynamite!
Hello, l am in one of those white spots on the map, in Manitoba. Nettles are all over here, l pick them up for soups and tea, further north probably not everywhere, but very common as far a 400 km north of Winnipeg
The stinging nettle is amazing!! I instantly feel better!! Thank you for all your wonderful medicinal info on the various herbs and their healing properties!! I have an undiagnosed auto immune disease as well as cervical stenosis with radiculopathy, and osteoporosis with osteoarthritis - the nettle has calmed down my inflammation and nerves - thank God for this!! I'm in constant pain. I'm truly grateful to find this leaf!!
Found you through this video and now following. Great content! My maiden name means stinging nettle so I have an inherent love for Urtica. Thanks for creating these videos 🎉
All praise aside, you forgot one VERY IMPORTANT THING: once the flowers bloom, pick the seeds which are loaded with protein but leave the flowers and leaves alone, because at that point of maturity, it can be really bad for your kidneys in even mild doses. ✌️
Wonderful! I grow my own nettles in the garden and mix them fresh with water and lemons! Lovely drink tastes green and fresh. They grow all year round😊
I can confirm that stinging nettle does indeed grow in Manitoba, the province on your map where it says it doesn't grow. I have tons of it in my backyard!
Doc, just saw this and your cayenne video-- love 'em! New here. In my morning prayer, asked Our Lord Jesus Christ to show me what He wants me to know today-- your cayenne video popped up! Thank you-- will stay tuned to learn more. You sound like just the kind of expert, good sense, no-nonsense doctor we need. Many thanks! and may God bless you with just what you need, too 👑✝️🕊️
Truly an amazing plant. Early season for the top leaves, then after its flowered the seeds. The seeds have slightly different uses and are very potent.
Early season for the leaves, as soon as the plant begins to flower do not puck the leaves. Wait until the seeds are mature and harvest these, but not the leaves. The plant develops calcium carbonate crystals in its leaves when it starts to flower. So harvest as much as you can early on. Best to only pick the top four leaves. The plant will then grow two stalks from that. It won't damage the plant.
I live in Manitoba Canada “the white province”. We have LOTS here also :D coming from one of your newest students. Can hardly wait to dive into lessons once I am off this combine
Just today, I gave my 91 year old mother some sn tea. She liked it and I think she was feeling better. I told her a cup a day for the rest of her life, as long as I have a say in it. Can you please address any special warnings and benefits particularly for our aging dementia parents?
ahahaha, every summer I would spend about 2 wks to a month with my nana on the farm, I would go picking wild flowers for her, and every summer my nana would end of covering my legs and arms with a baking soda paste while telling me to stay out of the nettles! I'm 68 now and have never made the connection until you just mentioned the stinging!😂
I didn’t know there was a place that we needed to report stinging nettle I reside at Ontario Canada I love and my people have been embracing stinging nettle for ages. I’ve came across a unique stinging nettle on my Dads property I haven’t seen before I thought maybe it was a female or make nettle . Yes I’ve heard of that also to sting themselves to relieve themselves from pain and ache joints.
We seem to have a different variety. We live in the tropics, very hot much of the time. It has red stems, more pronounced bulged and then tapering leas with saw tooth edges, but small to medium sized leafs, few stingers - but they are there, and they pretty much go to seed almost immediately it seems. I've been blessed to have a few in my container garden area, and harvest little bits here and there.
I love your closing comment, really made me laugh because it is so obvious and we all know a human haha. I have been looking into the benefits of Stinging Nettle for a while and your explanation is the best I have heard to date, Thank you for sharing.
Your map shows that Alaska has stinging nettle, but I have never come across any. I wish. We had so much of it in Germany. My grandma would pick it and brush it over her hands and arms to help with arthritis pain
I often pick Stinging Nettle leaves from my yard to feed to my rabbits… along with comfrey, dandelion flowers and greens, and plantains, etc as one of their fresh ingredients-but I never experience a “stinging effect”. I don’t know why it doesn’t sting me, but it doesn’t.
I planted seeds three years ago and I get a large enough patch to cut. They can be invasive and I find cutting the areas where they have spread and use those for tinctures etc really helps keep them in check. 😉
Is it true that consuming nettle leaves on the lower half of the plant has a negative effect? Thank you for your videos. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute!
I love this plant! It really works for reducing the pain of arthritis! I thank God for giving us so many wonderful herbs! This plant is also high in iron so if you have a high iron level in your blood - be careful to not overindulge. I did and now I have to lower my ferritins. I've gotten them down some (1229 to 1027) but they are still way high. So strange after a lifetime of being anemic! If anyone knows a good way to reduce your ferritins, please let me know! Thanks Doc! You do good work! Lum 💖
@@Saudade54 I just make a tea to drink and I take it by tincture. I'm not brave enough to slap myself with the fresh plant although I've heard many people do it for immediate relief. I would recommend you test it out first. Touch the plant, you will feel a stinging (hence the name) . The stinging should stop in a few minutes. If it goes on throughout the day and night, you have a sensitivity to it. I have a sensitivity to it which is why I think it works so well for me. I hope this helps and I pray that your wife gets relief! Jesus loves y'all! 💖
Love nettles. They go in our evening meal most days. I’ll be collecting seeds someday soon. I’ll be looking for big droopy bunches. You image looked like male flowers rather than female seeds, apologies if I’m wrong.
I fell flat on my back in a patch of stinging nettle when I was around nine… (in my best George Takei voice- Oh My!) burned and stung for hours. Yeah, I cried….
Thank you for this video Doc Jones! I need it this. I do have one question when you hang a nettle to dry to grounded up into powder, do you use whole thing plant? Or just the leaves?
Hello and thank you for sharing all of you knowledge. Im in texas and wondering is stinging nettle the same thing we call bull nettle? Bull nettle is also a stinging plant. Thank you. 😊

Ooooh, thank you for this! We have a loud snorer in our household, too. Now, to get him to take some tincture might take some doing.
Thanks for the testimony
Hmmmm snoring 🤔 That’s interesting, Thank you so much for letting us know.

It's the only weed (other than wooly croton) that my friend hasn't been able to kill! Thank the Lord! 😅
There is a special technic to pluck them without gloves.
From the bottom of the leaves.
But it requires some skills.
Rather use gloves too 😂😂

A great liver tonic
When is the best time to pick the leaves and seeds. I’ve heard not to pick the leaves after the plant goes to seed.

Just started growing some at home. Yay
Thank you so much for sharing this information 🌱 I love nettle ❤
I need to go out and find a patch of nettles! I live in the suburbs, so there aren’t any nearby. Thanks very much, Dr. Jones!
I got some dried from an organic Tea Shop and made tincture out of it.
Send me your address, I can send seeds
I ordered the seeds off of Etsy and planted my own
I didn’t know there was a place that we needed to report stinging nettle I reside at Ontario Canada I love and my people have been embracing stinging nettle for ages. I’ve came across a unique stinging nettle on my Dads property I haven’t seen before I thought maybe it was a female or make nettle . Yes I’ve heard of that also to sting themselves to relieve themselves from pain and ache joints.
We seem to have a different variety. We live in the tropics, very hot much of the time. It has red stems, more pronounced bulged and then tapering leas with saw tooth edges, but small to medium sized leafs, few stingers - but they are there, and they pretty much go to seed almost immediately it seems. I've been blessed to have a few in my container garden area, and harvest little bits here and there.

I am in Alaska on the the Kanai Peninsula and stinging nettle grows profusely here. Love it!
@@juniettareidhead8310 I am totally jealous 🥰
I’m in the Matsu Valley. I can see a road-trip in my future
Thank you Doc Jones for your soothing voice and valuable information. Pure joy and newfound knowledge!😊
haha When I was growing up I would visit NW Arkansas every summer - my grandparents on their farm. I can tell you - they have stinging nettle.
I often pick Stinging Nettle leaves from my yard to feed to my rabbits… along with comfrey, dandelion flowers and greens, and plantains, etc as one of their fresh ingredients-but I never experience a “stinging effect”. I don’t know why it doesn’t sting me, but it doesn’t.
A very informative and direct no nonsense view, well presented.
How about purple dead nettle in winter and early spring when stinging nettle isn't growing?
It grows all over the edges of my backyard in New York!!!
Thank you so much Dr Jones S Africa
They are all over my backyard along my fence line and i also have poke berries
Clipped my elbow on my wee baby growing in my house...zapped me like a bee! Woohoo, hell-oh!!
I’m from Arkansas and have looked high and low for stinging nettle. I guess I’m going to have to buy some seeds to get it started here.
Unfortunately that also did not work for me...maybe they'll come up in the spring. IDK
I'd be willing to mail you send if you cover the cost
I planted seeds three years ago and I get a large enough patch to cut. They can be invasive and I find cutting the areas where they have spread and use those for tinctures etc really helps keep them in check. 😉
Love it..Greetings from Denmark..❤️
Very similar to Korean perilla leaves. I use the Nettles like Koreans in delicious soups...
I've used this herb for very many years. I eat it, i put it on my skin and when my arthritis is really bad, I'll deliberately sting myself.
Great stuff doc,
I really need this one... but I don't think there's any close by 🙁 but I'm going to keep looking! Thanks Doc 😎👍
I would be interested in mailing you cover the cost
Is it true that consuming nettle leaves on the lower half of the plant has a negative effect?
Thank you for your videos. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute!
Interesting you left Manitoba Canada out on your map, we’re in south Manitoba and it’s growing in our backyard like crazy 😃
Thank you!
Sounds fascinating
I can verify that Arkansas has plenty.
I love this plant! It really works for reducing the pain of arthritis! I thank God for giving us so many wonderful herbs!

Tell me about purple nettle, still has the stinging part on top.
How to use it to help with prostate enlargement? Thank you.
I fell flat on my back in a patch of stinging nettle when I was around nine… (in my best George Takei voice- Oh My!) burned and stung for hours. Yeah, I cried….
Thank you for this video Doc Jones! I need it this. I do have one question when you hang a nettle to dry to grounded up into powder, do you use whole thing plant? Or just the leaves?
Thanks!
You mentioned how to grind up the plant to make powder but how do you process the root to use for prostate health?

Do you dry the whole plant and then make it into a powder?
