Wormwood, specifically artemesia annua is an amazing antiparasitic herb as well. This variety was handed an award for helping malaria. Artemisia annua has also been used as a cancer treatment.

Thank you for mentioning Artemisia annua. Also known as Chinese Wormwood and Sweet Annie. It is actually one of the best varieties of Wormwood to use and as the name suggests it has been used for thousands of years in Chinese medicine. Not all Wormwoods are great for people to consume as some are really high in Camphor. They are indeed having wonderful success with its use in Africa for dealing with Malaria. They make is into a tea and when sick they will have it several times during the day but have found that having one or two cups of tea a week as a preventative against Malaria has been a game changer. 🙏💚

Thankyou for your comment. Yes, I have been learning more about Artemesia annua recently and there is a lot of research going into it. I think it would be wise for everyone to have it at their home, and do some research into the benefits of it, especially with the antiviral and anti-cancer properties that are being discovered around it.

Thanks for having this fantastic and important series… love it! 😍☺️🙏🏻 I‘m also very into medicinal herbs here in Europe in Germany, Austria, Italy and my garden here in Slavonia/Croatia. Yaro grows wild everywhere here and it’s with stinging nettles, blackberries and mint the hardest to set borders to the veggie garden… 🤣🙈 also lemon balm, thyme and wild carots & parsnips grow everywhere… I had to look up some plants names because I didn’t know the english name. Perhaps it’s a good idea to add the latin names for your worlds audience, because the translation is often not distinct… 🤔 So here are some interesting additions from my/ the european persperctive: fever few, the german name is „Mutterkraut“, which means directly translated „mothers herb“. The trivial name „motherwort“ comes from its use for pregnancy complaints - it triggers menstruation and promotes the detachment of the placenta, making it an abortifacient. Perhaps this was the plant, Elle‘s client was searching for in the beginning… Mugwort or wormwood belongs to the „Artemisia family“, that knows over 200 varieties… the very common and well known „Artemisia vulgaris“, what pushes the fat digestion through its bitterness and is used as a spice for fatty dishes like goose here in Europe. It‘s also very common here to use it to fumigate the house on certain days to rid it of evil spirits and bad energies. The „Artemisia absinthium“, of which the very famous „Absinth“ was made, a bitter digestive, the famous „Absinthe“, in whose intoxication it is said that the painter Van Gogh cut off his ear. My absolute favourite and most important medicinal herb of the last four years is „Artemisia annua“: It was THE herb against covid. If you ever wondered why some african counties like Tansania, quit the WHO Membership and said they have their own medicine against Covid: this was it! You only have to drink that bitter tea or use it as a plant powder or DMSO extract/ tincture and you are safe. It works not only preventive against any type of virus, bacteria, many parasites (e.g. those who cause Malaria), it also heals them! We experienced that serveral times during the plandemic, but also due to so called long covid… Since 2.000 years this plant is known as the Anti Malaria Plant in TCM. 2015 this plant got the Medicine Nobel Price… welll, actually the Chinese Doctor Tou Youyou got the Nobel price for isolating ONE active ingradient „Artemisinine“. Newest studies show that it’s also,a strong medicine against certain types of cancer. One „Artemisinine injection“ in alternative complementic cancer medicine costs 270 €. A paket of seeds between 4 € and 140 €. … a plant 5 €. With one plant - in Europe it gets over 2 m high and very bushy - you have enough medicine for your whole family and your neighbourhood … for one year! In 2020, the trade in Artemisia annua as a medicinal tea and food supplement was banned on the basis of the Novel Food Regulation. Reason: Resistance had already developed... The fact is: resistance to the isolated active ingredient ‘artemisinin’ had developed. The entire plant with its more than 250 active ingredients is still effective against malaria, Covid, cancer, etc So, if THIS is the kind of mugwort/ wormwood you planted in the chicken yard: it’s too precious to have it only for the chicks! You should defenately have one for your family… even if it’s bitter! The bitterness is it’s power! And the smell is absolutely fantastic!

Yes, thankyou, you are right, we will be sure to use the scientific names in future episodes to avoid any confusion. The wormwood we planted was the Artemisia absinthium, not the annua. I have recently been learning of the medicinal benefits that you have described above of the annua and as such I have propagated some for its antiviral and anti cancer properties. There has been a lot of research into this plant recently and it is a true gift from nature to help with a lot of ailments currently plaguing us. Thankyou for your well researched, informative comment. Elle xx

@@GenXHeart No intrusion at all! Things can vary a bit from country-to-country but the EMT path has more internal and external supports than law enforcement in the US. I was the mental health component of a crisis response team (police, paramedic, mental health professional), so my answer will be influenced by my background. Many fire/rescue departments have built in mental health supports as well as spiritual supports through chaplaincy. My biggest piece of advice can be summed up in a fun word PROFYLACTIC aka preventative not reactive. Preventative mental and physical health treatment is the key to longevity. Use all of your time off - that's why they give it to you... especially after difficult calls. It's OK to say "I'm not OK." Reach out for support and reach out often. Stay connected to loved ones and hobbies. Getting support from within the first responder community is great (we have shared experiences and can relate) but sometimes it can be a burnout/trauma feedback loop. Spend time with people who aren't lights ands sirens all the time. ANDDD... get outside. Sit in the grass. Smell the flowers. Look at the pretty birds. 15 minutes in nature has multiple health benefits. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9665958/

Good video. Just wanted to share that the Echinacea root is only slightly stronger than the flower. The center of the flower is where the medicine is and you can harvest the flowers sooner. I wouldn’t bother digging the roots up since it will kill the plant. You can use Echinacea to treat sepsis, brown recluse spider bites and even rattlesnake bites. It contains an inhibitor that keeps the toxin from dissolving your tissue thus preserving the skin. You can even use it on animals, especially dogs. Use it with stimulating herbs like cayenne, peppermint and ginger to get the best benefits. Black eyed susan and yellow cone flower can be used in the same way as well.

Nice collab. Yes thyme is very easy to propagate, l have some that grew after being chopped and dropped.. so now when l prune, l try to stick some under the mulch to give it a beter chance of rooting.. that way l expand my covercrop for free.. What l’ve also noticed is that if you don’t prune it back in t(hy)ime it kinda dies on the old spots and creeps outward poorly..
