What You DIDN'T Know About Store-bought Antibiotic Ointment (Make THIS Instead)

[@brandyfalkenberg9983]

I so appreciate and value that you measure and weigh things while making your medicinal magic! When looking for channels on my own medicinal journey, this one reason is why I respected your knowledge and subscribed! Doing your own research from a variety of sources and knowing what you're putting into your herbal medicines is vital, and your measurements make that process just another step clearer while blending science with natural healing! Thank you again!

[@joannevenere3552]

Thanks for the recipe. I love handmade salves. Adding Vitamin E is skin soothing but also helps your products last longer. VE is an antioxidant that keeps oils from going rancid and extends the shelf life

[@adambland8779]

I heard vitamin e is not a preservedative

[@joannevenere3552]

@@adambland8779 where in my comment did I say it was a preservative? It’s an antioxidant that keeps the oils and butters fresher for longer periods. It keeps them from going rancid. It does not prevent pathogens

My husband and I both have a couple of small spots of skin cancer that will be removed soon. I will be checking into this for post surgery. Thank you for sharing!

[@shantinaturechild3239]

I wish you research for root causes of cancer and remove those as well. I know several humans who had tumors and healed them through raw alkaline diet, fasting and juicing, healing herbs, aloe vera, urine therapy, enemas, parasite cleansing but also getting rid of all kinds of perfumed petrochemical cleaning and cosmetic products and dental hazards..

Such a great thing to be able to make your own medicinal treatments, with powerful natural plant-based elements. Thank you for sharing this recipe!

[@bjrudder8538]

I love your videos they are so full of great advice. Thank you for sharing.

[@ka6148]

Comfrey would be a fantastic addition

[@jeaniepartridge6701]

Be aware some may be allergic to lavender I have one in my family!

[@maureenfernando4033]

Thank you for sharing this with us. Can you please do a vedio on lotion making as well.

[@margaretlebs6346]

Got cut . Cleaned it and put Neosporin on it. A week later at doctor's because cut was badly infected. She said I was allergic so got infected.

I haven't made my own... but Amish Origins chickweed salve is really good for blisters, bug bites, scratches, etc. They also have a calendula salve too. If you don't want to make your own, it has helped me and my family. I appreciate you sharing how to make our own healing salve, thank you.

[@Orsucci82]

Was wondering where the link is to the herbal class you referenced. It sounds amazing!

[@mrs.creeksidemaples2866]

Great info 🤍 Melissa, I’m curious what the Silver Appliance is behind you??

[@se5594]

I love your channel and learn so much! Thank you!! Do you have any animal (dog)friendly recipes for wellness?

[@dreamweaver5323]

How long does the Calendula oil last if kept cool and protected from light?

[@YH7R]

Thanks

[@megansamborski7440]

I'm curious which of the geranium essential oils you use from Plant Nation? I see they have two different ones and I don't know a lot about geranium so I don't know if one is preferred over the other. Thanks so much.

[@judithsmith9319]

I too use my own homemade ointment. I do want to clarify something that petroleum is rarely given attention to: its from the ground. God created it and people who work on oil rigs have super soft skin. Until the chemicals are added for some uses, it is safe and as organic as they come. Remember, dirt is organic. In general, folks misunderstand that word. It's not something the US d a invented. Give petroleum a break and don't be afraid to use it.

[@MelissaKNorris]

You might want to research the process it goes through while being made, you'd likely change your mind.

[@mariaallevato6121]

I would love to make this, and have made face cream with similar ingredients. But after a while, the beeswax (I guess?) seperated back into little granules. Can this happen with this ointment? How can I prevent that?

[@shanna19677]

Just heat it back up and stir- honey never goes bad- it crystallizes like that- that’s how you know u have great honey or beeswax!

[@17buckrogers]

azure standard is not in elko nevada

[@eyelessnevermore]

What do you recommend to substitute the lavender? I am highly allergic to lavender. There are many people, like myself, that have anaphylaxis with lavender.

[@teamdivine5651]

,Ecchinacea, Iris, and hypericum perforatum. You can use all of them together

[@LaverneCarter-zn1zs]

Can you buy it

[@davidjaye710]

could a person put some vitamin E in as well? if so how much would you suggest?

[@MelissaKNorris]

I've never used vitamin E in mine

[@julierossbrickley146]

Do you have an alternative to beeswax? I am highly allergic to the fumes

[@MelissaKNorris]

You could try carnauba wax

[@uptone12111]

How long is it good for? Before it expires

[@danaszabo9921]

Can you tell us what brand of essential oils you use, please?

[@MelissaKNorris]

It's in the blog post that's linked in the video description with the printable recipe

[@brendalee8394]

Where is your favorite place to buy essential oils?

[@Richardofdanbury]

Is this good for bee and insect stings?

[@jojow8416]

Plantain infused oil, or just plantain has drawing properties as well as a number of other health benefits. I was stung, found plantain leaf, chewed it up and placed it on the sting. Within a few minutes the area no longer throbbed and did not cause the usual swelling that I always suffer. I hope this was helpful. Look up Plantain benefits and you will find a lot of information.

[@mariep4018]

Can you add honey to the salve? because honey is a natural antibiotic? I’m just curious I know I use honey on my lips sometimes because it retains moisture as well. I rub a little Shea butter and honey on my lips and sometimes a little cod liver oil, so keeps my lips moist. I just thought I’d share that.❤

[@MelissaKNorris]

I haven't tried it with honey. I would probably just do a layer of honey and then put this on top
