YIKES! A Professional Herbalist Inspects My Medicinal Cottage Garden

[@donnabush7938]

This is a wonderfully informative video! Would you please consider making videos on each of your medicinal herbs; the storage, preparation and use of each? Thanks!

There are a lot of individual plant videos on my HomeGrown Herbalist KZbin Channel. And, for those that really want to dig in, there's the HomeGrown Herbalist School of Botanical Medicine. :0) Doc Jones

Catnip and fennel tea saved my premie son back in 1986. My milk dried up by the time he came home from the hospital, so he ended up on formula. After 1 month of constant colic and projectile vomiting, the doctor wanted to start him on Gaviscon. I switched him to Carnation evaporated milk and Karo syrup with added liquid vitamins, added 10 drops of catnip and fennel tea to 1 ounce of water twice a day...within a week, he was thriving and had no more colic or vomiting.

This is great information for parents that can't find baby formula now.

[@irisalosavalos1945]

Wow good information thank you wo much for sharing!

[@Angelchakra]

I wish I'd known that with my eldest, she had horrible colic, we changed the formula milk about three times, eventually finding one that reduced the colic. I used to give her diluted chamomile tea and that seemed to help too.

Well done, so happy for you n your son ❤

Honestly that Hops Tinktur advice has made my life so much easier. My mom has chronic pain in her wrist after a pretty nasty fracture. Not only the Tinktur reduced her need for pain medication to almost non it has also calmed down the joint inflammation to where she has just about full use of her hand now. On top of all that I use it on my back and my my migraines have gone down from at least once a week to maybe one a month. The quality of life we gained with something so simple is just amazing.

[@HomesteadingFamily]

Thank you for doing this series with Doc Jones. I’m sorry to say I’ve not heard of him previously, but I’m so appreciative of his knowledge combined with such a relaxed, calming, and unassuming style. He is confident in the gift The Lord has given him. Caroline, we knew you’d get an A+. What a joy to see herbalism taught from faith in the Creator of those herbs! Not from the other perspective.

[@bonniebrown6960]

If I had my life to do over with.... I would have loved to have been an herbalist. I wish I had learned more about herbs, before I let doctors mess my life up. I had two doctors that ruined my health by having surgery. The first doctor didn't take out my right ovary, my right fallopian tube, and he messed up my colon/ intestines. A few years later I went to another doctor, because I knew there was something wrong. It was getting worse over time. He did a check up and told me everything was fine. Two weeks later my right side was hurting so bad. Went to the ER and they did a cat scan. They told me I had a big tumor on my right ovary. I said, wait a minute.... I don't have a right ovary. The doctor didn't remove it. The 2nd doctor didn't catch it on the ultrasound either. I had a hysterectomy and they had to fix all my intestines from where the doctor messed me up from the last surgery I had. My life was bad enough because of all of that. Then my thyroid went crazy. Then I went to a new doctor 2 years ago and she put me on some medication that ruined my heart and lungs. For a year and a half I tried to tell the doctors that something was wrong and they wouldn't listen. I had never had problems with my heart before I took that medication. Then a year and half later( this past March ) I had a heart attack. I'm so sick of doctors messing me up. I think modern medicine is great for certain things, but not for everything. I wish I knew something I could take to stop pain without it hurting my heart, my lungs, or my stomach.
