I love these! Definitely better than the multivitamins in the store full of “man-made” ingredients

[@HeidiVillegas]

Absolutely!!!

[@shellsmith2268]

Love this video thanks, I will have to make these, I'm definately going to roll mine in Cacao powder 😋🥰

[@HeidiVillegas]

Yes, the cacao would be perfect!

[@osieg]

Heidi I just love your videos!!!!!!

[@HeidiVillegas]

Thank you so much!

[@HalfLatinaJoy86]

Thanks! I'm going to do this and make one for pain reliever/anti-inflammatory with like honey, turmeric, ginger, black pepper, and cayenne.

[@babsblan]

Thank you so much for all the great free resources! My printer has been busy since I found your site!

[@HeidiVillegas]

You're so welcome, Babs!🥰 Be sure to register for my next free workshop!

[@amyl.3236]

So, how many do you take a day? I am so excited to try these!

[@HeidiVillegas]

You can take as many as you like. They won't hurt you as they're considered "food" herbs. But if you like a number, I'd say 3-5 a day.

[@thinkathena2]

I don't have plantain yet so I think I'll add Hawthorne leaf instead. :)

[@HeidiVillegas]

And that leaf tastes so good!

[@cherylrybarczyk2705]

Thank you Heidi looks delicious! One question how do you grind the root of dandelion and burdock? Thank you

[@HeidiVillegas]

I just used my spice grinder. It's a coffee bean grinder dedicated to my herbs when I want a powder.

[@mtnbkrwmn]

Great video! Once i can get dandelion, i'll be able to make them! Looking forward to the next class ❤

[@HeidiVillegas]

Thank you!

[@felixhorta2090]

Thank you Heidi, this was wonderful! Dawn 😊

[@HeidiVillegas]

You are so welcome!🥰

[@eaglechortles]

This will be new for me! Thank you Heidi.

Hey! I miss your face!🥰

[@rdh52600]

Love this idea Heidi!

[@HeidiVillegas]

Thank you, and it's time to go make more!

[@katebarton7134]

Thanks Heidi

[@HeidiVillegas]

Thank you!🥰

[@joelneva6266]

Thank you Heidi for an informative and fun video subject❣Could you please tell us what is the name of the herb after burdock? Pintch pot?

[@HeidiVillegas]

This is a really flexible recipe. I think I was using dandelion leaf and root, burdock root powder, and nettle with a bit of ginger powder (which is REALLY spicy, so cut back if you aren't into spice).

[@joelneva6266]

@HeidiVillegas ❤Thank you Heidi. God Bless you and yours❤

[@belieftransformation]

Great information; thanks for sharing!

[@HeidiVillegas]

Thank you so much!

[@anngiaquintoscott3248]

It's hard waiting for spring herbs to pop up. I will be out looking in the next week or so. Dandelion will be the first.

[@HeidiVillegas]

YES! Spring foraging is starting!

[@juliebovenkamp5433]

Good Morning Heidi, thank you for this video! Where can I buy your tea recipe book?

[@HeidiVillegas]

Hi, Julie! It's not quite ready yet, and it will be part of my course on herbal teas which I'm re-filming now.

[@joelneva6266]

Thank you for this Heidi. I am wondering, what about heating herbs to activate their phytochemicals? Do I put the herbal pill candies in the oven to activate them?

[@HeidiVillegas]

Your digestive process inside your body actually does the "heating" for you!

[@joelneva6266]

@@HeidiVillegas Thank you Heidi. Good to know.

[@suefeatherstone5329]

Heidi...can I please ask your opinion on essential oils? On the sourcing side? I have heard that during growing they're possibly sprayed with pesticides to enhance, and speed up growth! it takes an enormous amount for a tiny amount of oil..🤔💚

[@HeidiVillegas]

Oh, Sue....this is a topic of my heart. The only downside to the essential oil industry is that "Big Money" has gotten their hands on it. Yes, this is true. So, it's very important to source from extremely reputable companies who care about the small farmers. Not all small farmers can get an "organic" certification, but many practice excellent growing practices. I like to buy from companies who vet the farms and do NOT EVER buy from these businesses who source from companies who sell vats of the essential oil so these people can rebrand under their own name. It makes me crazy!

[@suefeatherstone5329]

@@HeidiVillegas it's such a shame...I know DoTerra are probably our (UK) most accessible and popular brand... they've grown over the past few years as have weleda ...oh my! so hard to figure out who to trust🙏🏼 Thank you so much for your reply...I know you are a busy lady... absolutely love all you put out here😁🌞🌻

[@HeidiVillegas]

I actually believe that DoTerra and also Young Living are very careful about their essential oils. I'm not a distributor for either of them, but I do trust the quality. @@suefeatherstone5329

[@michellehamilton4075]

This is right up my ally! How many can you take in a day?

[@HeidiVillegas]

I suggest starting with 3 to 5, but more is fine too. These are food herbs, so they're fine to eat!

[@ChocolateBoxCottage]

Does the plantain offer enough mucilage to offset the drying quality of nettle for someone with a dry constitution or would you recommend a substitute for nettle? ~ Michele

[@HeidiVillegas]

Well, unless you're eating a TON of these (like Joe, LOL) you'll probably be ok. If you know that nettle is way overdrying to your constitution, then yes, adding the plantain can help, and so can marshmallow leaf or root.

[@sicilysmith5440]

Hello Heidi, I have watched this video a couple times and I couldn't see or hear which vitamins are in the herbs and spices you used to create your multivitamins. I heard you mention calcium in violet leaf but there wasn't violet leaf added. Please list the vitamins in your multivitamins. Thanks

[@HeidiVillegas]

H, Sicily! I thought about that after I made the video, and I talked about vitamins in herbs in my newsletter on Wednesday. But the vitamins included in this mixture here would be: A, B's, C, D, E, and K in varying amounts. Minerals: calcium, magnesium, manganese, potassium, zinc and others. And then there are bioflavonoids and also some beneficial carbohydrates like pollysaccarides. There's also healthy fiber in the form of inulin in the dandelion and burdock root. So some research for more information, but that's a basic rundown. Now...remember, these aren't standardized like otc lab created ones are.

[@fryday65]

What could I use other than honey? Auto immune, antibiotic issues, honey I try to avoid, glycerine? Will experiment. Thank you Aho'

[@HeidiVillegas]

Almond butter or other nut butter, and molasses would be helpful. And the molasses contains iron.

[@fryday65]

Thanks for the tips. I react to almond skins, try to stay away form processed foods. I have some date syrup, too, depends on how stong my moleasses is, thanks.@@HeidiVillegas

[@witchhazel8583]

I Will dry them in the oven or at least try😊

[@HeidiVillegas]

Let me know how it goes!

[@issasosa69]

How can we order your book?

[@HeidiVillegas]

Hi, Issa! I'm not sure I'll have the book for sale outside of a course yet. I used to sell it separately when I was small. I have a lot of free books and guides I offer, too! Just check the description box, and there should be links there.

[@toysintheclosetshop5443]

Maybe it was just me but the audio of this video was very hard to hear. Lot of echo.

[@HeidiVillegas]

Oh, no! Thank you for letting me know. I can't remember if I remembered to put my ear buds in, and I'll double check that from now on. We're in a new space and getting used to it.
