Free Antibiotics - Making Medicine From Japanese Barberry with Adam Haritan

[@ZeekSuds]

[@rachelross5829]

Start by getting books from the library......start a folder with printables that you went out and foraged. Take a specimen back, look it up in book or computer....even phones have plant identification apps. I started with books 15 years ago. My 11 year old cooked up some lobster mushrooms and horsetail tea. A beautiful relationship with our inheritance....earth

I'm always amazed on how much information you provide in such a short amount of time. Thank you.

[@straubdavid9]

I have battled this bush for decades, as it grows along streams and chokes out the trails. If I would have known they were useful, I would still have battled them, but would have also harvested the berries from the stems. I did not eradicate them by any means, but cut a narrow swath through them with enough space for people to walk through in a single line. The spines on the stems will tear up your fishing waders. Thanks a lot for this very useful bit of info ... gives me "some" appreciation for this sticker bush.

[@matruhunter1976]

I am really enjoying your videos. You are very knowledgeable and professional. I have been foraging for many years and you have taught me more this year than I learned in the past 10.

Wow I am so late to the game. I just came across this video. Because I was researching a new herb I had gotten from, a herbal store here where I live. It is Barberry. Thank you so much for this video and giving out the proper education.

[@ChristopherJones16]

I love your videos brothers. I live in North Eastern PA (Scranton) so I feel like whatever you find in your neck of the woods, I will find in mine. When I was in college I dated this girls from Long Island.. she said she looked at PA people as farmers... I said yeah we have farms like every state but we're not farmers.. we're woodsmen. If only the city folk realized why we love our woods.

[@sandyeggerstedt3559]

Awesome video! When my daughter was young she would get tonsillitis and cancer sores often. I didn't want to run into the problem of antibiotic resistance so looked up in my book The Herbal Bible for an alternative. Sage tea became a staple in my kitchen. I grew sage in my garden and dried it for over the winter. I would steep a leaf or 2 in hot water until it cooled then she would gargle and miracles would happen! She still has her tonsils and has had no need for the antibiotics. My son recently called to ask how to do it as well. Mother Nature at Her finest. I often use unpasteurized honey on a cut that looks red and nasty. Before you know it its healed. Thank You for sharing another of Her ways. I lime this one! Love your channel. 💚💚

[@suzannemorrow9987]

It’s very invasive. It grows in all the nature preserves around here. The birds eat the berries and seed them elsewhere.

[@haggard21077]

you are the man! the last sheepshead I picked actually had a few berries from this plant laying on the fronds and I had no idea what the berries were. nature is amazing because the learning never stops and it's so much fun to keep discovering new things, but always respect nature and wild edibles because some can be dangerous. if not 100 percent sure do not eat

[@darthbane3166]

[@fieldbee3211]

Yeah, Hill Top Mel - maybe you have a great resource and can take cuttings from your "mother plants" and propagation can bring the plants and their great value to others too. I'd be interested in a few by the way. :-)

[@Lved6]

I just bought 2 small barberry on clearance. As I'm watching videos to learn more about them, videos keep showing of how dangerous and invasive they are and how they harbor ticks with Lyme. So I think .... Hmm, don't ticks get Lyme from dear 🤔 ... Don't deer stay away from barbarry because of the thorns 🤔.... So how are Lyme infested ticks harboring in barberry if deer stay away from it 🤔 Maybe my logic is wrong, but now that Im watching your video, it all makes sense! Of course barberry is being touted as dangerous... It has healing properties and medicinal use. Thanks so much for the info 💖

[@beebob1279]

Terrific. I've kept bees for years and the propolis which is found as a sticky substance in the hive is a known agent to battle bacterial infections. It also escalates the ability of antibiotics to perform. Your videos are fun to watch and are so informative. I'm checking your website and signing on.

[@gardensofthegods]

That's really great.. that is something I wanted to do since I was a little kid was to have some bee colonies and then it never happened for various reasons.. I have the utmost respect for beekeepers as well as the poor bees who are suffering nowadays from all the pesticides out there and all the aluminum hitting our soils from seeded skies. I haven't done propolis in a long time . But I'm not sure if I have respect for the manuka honey people... maybe it isn't them Perhaps it is someone else may be a middleman who is making that honey ridiculously pricey... 2 years ago one jar of it on sale at $36. Yes I know it is imported and I'm hoping that beekeepers in the right climates in the United States can start making manuka honey.. I hear that the manuka tree is the tea tree.. as in tea tree oil.. which is a pretty good healer ( not to be confused with tea bushes from where we get our drinking tea .. although tea seed oil is very good for the skin if one can get the real thing )

[@johnemmons9087]

Another great video! I like your format and detailed explanations. I have one comment based on my experience. I was told 20+ years ago about how Japanese Barberry was so invasive. Of course as a naturalist I kept it in mind for observation. I have to say I have found them scattered here and there through the thousands of acres I have roamed and found them as individual plants far and very few in between. My opinion has changed to the fact that they are here, yes maybe transplants, but also as a blessing. I have never seen them destroy other plants in their vicinity. Thank you again for a great video!

[@markjones5561]

I'm catching up on all the Learn Your Land videos, and this one jumped out as it mentioned Barberry in the title. In fact, I had been looking at ways to rid the woods of it! In my instance I am in Maryland, Frederick county, which borders Pennsylvania. Here this plant can utterly cover the forest understory., and nothing grows beneath them once they form these thickets. There are places I have seen where there is nothing else. Bordering the land I am lucky enough to steward there are entire woodland slopes that are covered and these expand every year. Perhaps it's more a regional problem? Where I have removed it the land seems to be coming back, I see many more plants each spring that were not apparent before barberry removal. After seeing this video I am wondering if I should have left a few, they do produce thousands of those drupes though, which the birds gobble like candy and spread far and wide. How common is this plant in other locations?

[@johnemmons9087]

@@markjones5561 I only see them here and there. I’ve seen them used as effective shrubbery up here. Interesting what you say about them filling the understory. Low growth Blueberry fills the understory up here.

[@markjones5561]

@@johnemmons9087 I have seen plenty of blueberry here too, but it is mostly eaten by deer before it gets a chance to flower and produce fruit. I believe the high deer levels in this area is probably helping the barberry flourish. I've not seen any evidence that deer browse on it. A reason that most gardens in the area use it! I'm tempted sometimes to fence off some piece of the land from deer to compare what might happen without deer browsing. My suspicion is that many INVASIVE plants would be out-competed by NATIVE plants if they were not chomped on.

[@Terri_Stauffer]

@@markjones5561 I am in Catskill mountains in NY and this plant is extremely invasive. It has taken over forest lot next to me, the deer do not eat but just walk by. I just removed it from area it took over on my property after learning how it harbors ticks and in my case poison ivy was loving the condition inside shrub so removed that too. I planted some native shrubs and enjoying seeing the wild blackberry come back. Wild blackberry used to grow on roadway too but the barberry has taken over.

So blessed or like it is said: "Look and you'll find" This year healed from arthritis and rheumatoid, shingles and perhaps more by eating wild plants. Learning from the best and not only listening and observing here but also comparing information with other amazing herbalists all over the world. Already had healed (2015-2016) from massive illnesses prior learning about plants this year by switching to a plant based and water fasting but needed more nutrients and reinforce more my immune system. Here I am not only learning but eating/trying all wild plants daily. I'm only 50 and have no need for any conventional pharma stuff or doctors. I am pretty healthy and very energetic, have not even need of processed vitamins or supplements as I eat them all from plants/flowers/fruits.

The grocery store was promoting their pharmacy. Every mall, even the smallest ones, used to have at least one pharmacy along with two anchor stores. Having a pharmacy guaranteed a certain level of foot traffic that otherwise might not have bothered going to the mall. It caused tens of thousands of additional shoppers to visit the mall every month. All the stores benefited. The grocery store chain you're referring to uses the same successful strategy. It's also why they usually have branch offices of a major bank in their larger stores, and more recently sit-down restaurants. Wal-Mart does the same. As af last year the chain you didn't name even has a section for the sale of beer and wine in all store that sell hot food. It's all about generating additional foot traffic.
