    I think Goldenrod was the one that finally made me think ok that's it, God has surrounded us with medicine and food, it's everywhere and we struggle to weed it out and plant other food 😆 Thanks for another great video, when there is a wild plant I want to know about and I see your video I know it will be filled with what I want to know and then some.

    I get the need for the disclaimers of consulting a doctor, yet most have little knowledge of medicinal plants. Combined with the fact they make no money on it, they seldom will recommend anything that cuts into the bottom line.
    Case in point; the recent virus and the stiffling of cheap effective therapeutic treatments. I have little faith in corporate medicine, and for good reason. Bottom line; do your own research and choose your doctor very very carefully!!

      I tend to gravitate to saying "qualified health professional" - this can be an ND, Herbalist, etc. 5 years ago I was diagnosed with OA in both knees - - I am healed and my doctor knew I could do it because she once practised Ayurveda when she lived in India.

    Recently I read that Goldenrod is helpful at preventing kidney stones of which I passed one of those little devils this past Spring. So, in addition to eating a low oxalate vegan diet, I am searching for anything that prevents kidney stones other than consuming animal-based calcium sources.

    • @EdibleWildFood-1
      @EdibleWildFood-1  3 роки тому +5

      Thank you for your kind words! Yes, goldenrod has been known to help with preventing stones. It isn't just calcium that is needed to help prevent stones because calcium on its own can't do it. It needs magnesium, potassium and sodium as well. All these minerals are commonly found in a variety of wild foods.

  • @LadyTSurvival
    @LadyTSurvival 2 роки тому +2

    I just nibbled on about three little teeny leaves near the flowers and they had a really bad flavor, is that normal for goldenrod? Because if it is it's not very edible as far as flavor goes. I just ingested a small amount to see if my body can take it. If I have any problems I won't be doing that again LOL. I picked a whole bunch of it today all the flour heads that were open and starting to open because I wanted to make some tinctures etc or I may just take the flowers that I picked and scatter them up and down the ditch in front of the property so that they can start growing out there so I don't have to look for them later I can grow them where I need them. I have asthma and arthritis really bad. I also get swollen feet and I have urinary issues in that eye almost need to wear a absorbent pad. So I'm hoping it can help with that. Cuz I really don't want to have to wear a sanitary napkin or a diaper later if I can take goldenrod and maybe alleviate that problem that's one thing less I got to worry about. I am very interested in the oil to make a muscle rub so I'm going to check that video out now.

    • @LadyTSurvival
      @LadyTSurvival 2 роки тому +3

      It didn't make me sick at all I just didn't care for the flavor, I may try it with the apple cider vinegar but I don't really care for that flavor either LOL. So I don't know I'm thinking maybe mulch it up soak it in apple cider vinegar and then use the vinegar to mix in with an oil to make a vinaigrette maybe? We'll see how it works out. I just strained my Mullein tincture and I'm taking that now for my breathing issues I hope to find some more Mullein before the season is over. And I've made a basil oil that's soaking now I got about another month. Basil is a good herbal as well as an excellent flavoring maybe I could mix the goldenrod with the basil oil. I think at this point I just need to experiment a little but there's tons and tons of goldenrod right down the street so if I can find good practical uses here for me then I have an excellent resource I do need to plant Mullein though,. I want to get that to grow wild all over around here

      As far as I know in regards to the species in Canada and the United States! I have never read anything that states otherwise.

      I'd go on BONAP and look at their county maps under genus Solidago to see which species are in your county, there may be several, the bright green is "native and present" meaning not uncommon.
      There are many Solidago species, in other words there are many different Goldenrod species. Common names suck because people conflate different species that have different effects, it's important to learn the binomial names.
      Solidago is the genus that we refer to as Goldenrod

    Goldenrod is not related to ragweed. If you have allergies to ragweed, you won't also have allergies to goldenrod.

      They're insect pollinated, as she says. It looks similar to ragweed but totally different family of flowers.
