Nicole, Would you be in Georgia? There was a gentleman that had a shop here in town. He passed away of old age. 😢 He was such a wealth of knowledge, wisdom, and information when it came to herbs and various natural remedies. His family tried to keep the business going but due to someone else who had a similar business, bad mouthing them, having their orders canceled, ect... they tired of the fight and closed down. I don't say much to anyone about the other business. I did try them for a little while. Felt uncomfortable in their shop. Asked them about reflexology. Their version of it was a foot soak. Which is wrong from the investigating/ researching that I've done. So after that I don't see them anymore.

@HeidiVillegas

Oh....the elusive fruit flavor! :-) This is hard or impossible from just the dried fruit. Most tea makers use an extract of some kind of flavoring. This is why you need to pay close attention to the flavorings in commercial teas---they don't have to share exactly what's in them. What I do is purchase a natural extract (organic) from a quality place---or I'll often make my own and spritz the tea leaves with the extract.

Hi, Tammy! Not necessarily. Herbal formulas are often used for immediate relief for acute situations, and they can also be used tonically for more chronic complaints or just for general wellness.

I have a question! I’ve been making my own tea blends but when you make a blend do you only still use a teaspoon up to a tablespoon per cup? I guess I’m asking because will you get the potency you want per herb? Take elderberry for cold and flu season for example. If the bag of elderberry says a teaspoon per cup but I put it in a blend.. I wouldn’t technically be getting a teaspoon per cup of just elderberry if I put it in a blend. Does that matter?

@HeidiVillegas

Жыл бұрын

Yes, it definitely matters. The amount of herb you use, especially when blending for therapeutic reasons, matters a great deal. The other factor that makes a huge difference is the infusion time. A strong infusion may need to steep for several hours or even over night, depending on the herbs used and your specific needs. :-)

Hi, Rainer! Yes, it is very important to be sure the herbs are completely dry, and the jars are glass and also completely dry. Then store in a cool, dark place---Light, heat, oxygen, and moisture will destroy your herbal teas.

I like Starwest Botanicals if you're beginning: bit.ly/StarBot Foster Farms Botanicals carries excellent herb, and so do most smaller herb farms, and my favorite in that category is Reverie Farm in Troy Idaho.🥰

Hi, Lisa! If you're trying to get the relaxing benefits of the chamomile, I suggest lemon balm or possibly skullcap. :-)

Hi! Most of my materials are downloadable with the courses.

Just a note to say that just because something is good for a particular issue it may not be ideal. A friend has gallbladder problems so of course stepped up turmeric. In that case, it was a BAD idea because the problem was little nodules on the inside of the gallbladder. So something that stimulated the gallbladder wasn't helpful in that instance

Absolutely. This is why herbalists will always say to do further research for contraindications on any herb or essential oil you use. Or, if you're working with an herbalist as a client relationship, the herbalist will do a complete intake to be sure that recommendations are meant for the specific person. Even very safe herbs such as turmeric (and even ginger, garlic, rosemary and other "food" herbs) can cause issues if people have certain health conditions.

What’s on the kidney tea ?

A good kidney supporting tea will contain plenty of your mineral-rich herbs, such as nettle leaf, dandelion leaf, horsetail (Equisetum spp), chickweed, oat straw or tops, etc. I usually add an herb or two to stimulate the actions of the above: ginger, cinnamon, etc. and these also add flavor. Marshmallow is an excellent supportive herb for the urinary tract and kidneys as well.... It's demulcent and soothes mucus membranes in your body. If you have issues with infection in the area, add some chamomile, as well... as chamomile has antispasmodic properties. If you follow this formulation plan, AND know the herbs you're using well, you'll be able to create a wonderful tea for yourself. **Remember, I'm not a medical doctor. I'm an herbalist. The FDA doesn't regulate herbs so run any decisions by your doctor first. Stating for liability reasons. Sorry I'm just seeing this!

What's the difference between Oat straw and Milky Oats? Does Milky Oats have another name?
