What I love about this guy is that he gets right to the point with his explanation and story----no 'pussyfooting around' for 10 minutes saying that he's going to tell us something. Plus he tells us what the herb can do AND shows us what it looks like and doesn't charge us $50 dollars in the end for a bottle of it!
Now this young man just gave me hope in humanity of our future youth. Very, very smart. He has a great teaching ability. Shine on young man. God bless your future success.
@@jg1019 you are right about that. I was thinking of this body in this lifetime. There may be other lifetimes you are right. My point of course was one can change most any situation other than death. Might not get exactly what you want of course but could get away from most toxic situations.
I've crushed fresh leaves and jammed them directly into open wounds along with plantain leaves. Many reports (on myself especially) where stitches would be required but if you quickly gather fresh leaves, pound them until they turn dark green then apply directly into wound, self-heal will kill bad bacteria and germs. Apply gauze and tape. After a couple days, the wound may start to feel itchy. Remove the bandages, apply a fresh batch of leaves then wrap. After one week (especially with bad burns) you will be impressed! No infection, skin is growing healthy. It will have a blackened look around the wound, do not panic, it is the leaves which darken to near black leaving a tint on your skin. It washes off but do not use soap, alcohol or anything or it won't heal without a scar. We've used these leaves for decades on nearly every horrible wound you can imagine and never is there a scar or infection. I live in the Pacific NW and learned this from the Native Americans here 3 decades ago and I swear by self-heal and plantain for their antimicrobial, antiviral and anti-infection properties.
Yes, he probably kept out of trouble and would rather explore, learn, share with kindness and not be told ' go play in traffic ' ;) He took the road less traveled and off the beaten path to find his true self and many of natures unique gems as well. This guy is like in my Pantheon of great teachers, artists, musicians, healers, poets, etc! I'd give him his own department and budget if I could lol - I'm gushing and possibly man crushing LOL
The Ojibiwe people of the mid-west have referred to it as "the great puller outer" because if you make a poultice with it and apply it overnight, it draws out infection and foreign objects. This little plant is part of the mint family and all mints are safe for consumption.
ohh that reminds me of Ms. Barbara O'Neills' onion poultice. She says it's good at drawing out infection too! Thanks for sharing that mint family is an all-edible btw. It got me thinking what other plant families are good.
@@weneedmoreconsideratepeopl4006 I didn't know that about onion poultice, nice! Here's another goody about onions: While slicing bread at a restaurant I worked at, I cut my finger pretty badly and couldn't get it to stop bleeding. Another waitress I worked with used the filmy skin from an onion as a bandage on my finger and it totally stopped the bleeding. When I got to the emergency room, the E.R. nurse asked where I got the "butterfly bandage" from, I told her it was an onion skin and she was amazed. Turns out not only did it work to stop the bleeding, but it also kept it from getting infected.
Dandelion stems work well to pull out poisons too. It is my go to when ever I have any run in's with bee's, wasps, or stinging nettles. Works amazingly well.
Ive always thought the most amazing thing about these plants is that our " dim " ancestors knew enough about their properties ( before " science " )to give them names that would still help us after we'd lost our way.
Yes, inclusive communal knowledge before isolating, alienating and the bums rush by specialists in their " field" . Sorry but the industries seem to be failing too many as well as the planet. JMO
You have a diminished knowledge. The names are recent. Eg Prunella vulgaris, busuioc de câmp, and a host of other names. Selfheal, or heal all, is a seventeenth century marketing ploy.
I'm way older than this guy, have studied pants all my life, but could never come close to talking like this guy. I'm sure he has his cliff notes, but still always very impressive video's.
It is time for the world to know and I have been called crazy for saying and writing about God's plants being for our bodies healing, and I am so glad you are here and all of the other RUclips Videos speaking about God's healing plants all with seeds!!!! Thank you so much for sharing
What ....no disrespect... This is new to you??? This knowledge normal.....shows how alienated from nature so many have become....and uneducated, as in school we are taught about indigenous people go foraging. Plus many synthetic drugs are discovered in nature. Who the hell calls you crazy for saying plants will heal? Do they only eat meat takeaway???

Self heal is the main ingredient in the medicine I make for my chickens when they get sick, and it works great! Takes forever to pick enough, though. This year I'm planting a big patch of it so I won't be spending hours scouring my lawn trying to gather enough flower heads when needed.
@Rocco Diciano I have been harvesting from my lawn, but the task is painstakingly laborious and not helped at all by my partner who loves his lawnmower! I bought seeds from Richter's this year just so I can allocate a dedicated patch that the BF's mower cannot touch;)
@@marylynntindall253 I use the flowers in a tea, and replace that with their regular water source. My original reply is now quite old. We have since moved into the bush, completely off-grid, and without any predation issues thus far (we do have dogs, which is likely a major factor). As such, I got lazy this past winter, and quit closing the run doors at night (some of which are full human height) because it just got too damn cold (-25) for me to be able to go outside... This is THE FIRST winter that I never had a single sniffle or bubbly eye out of ANY of my chickens, so this experience tells me that "disease" in chickens is more closely tied with ventilation/freedom to roam (or lack thereof) than it is with any virus or bacterium.
It may be no more than a coincidence, but I was just outside walking through a huge area where this grows on my property and saying to my dogs (I always have interesting conversations with my dogs!) that it is too bad that a plant so abundant and called Heal-all (that is the common name in my area) should be so lacking in medicinal properties. I actually read not long ago that the research was rather disappointing, but I can never help wondering why plants get the names and reputations they do unless there is at least something to it. I also can't help wondering if many pharmaceutical companies (who often sponsor such research) may have ulterior motives for not wanting people to heal themselves naturally. At any rate, I have included it in my wild foraging for many years and will now, happily add it to my medicine cabinet as well. Thanks for the video--informative, and fun to watch as usual!
Keep wondering & talking with your dogs... consider that wild herbs harvested & used correctly may work where scientific clinical trials simply don't. Why would a plant want to succeed in that system... our green cousins have seen what industry does to plants - chemical monoculture handled by machines never meet a living human or insect! Plant Hell. Of course the research will be disappointing....

That was amazing, I learned so much so easily. Thank you for this. I recenty began to notice the tiny purple flowers all over what used to be my lawn, now a field of what most of us consider useless weeds. So happy to be learning otherwise. This video was such comprehensive and concise lesson on this plant. I will definitely be harvesting this from now on. 🥰
I'm planning to infuse self heal into the oil I make for my skin in the summer. I also add cocoa butter, Shea butter, and coconut oil 🥰 Excited to make and add an oil extract of self heal to this! 💜
can I suggest that you add a good amount of oil out of vitamin E capsules? I used to suffer from horrible sunburns every summer. Since it is a bit sticky I used to add it to skin cream to help spread it on my skin, but cocoa butter and your other ingredients would work even better. My sunburn pain would last for days and take forever to heal. Then there was the peeling. when I use it on sunburn (or any kind of burns. I used to work with molten glass and got bad burns from it) by the next day my sunburn pain would be gone. and very minimal peeling. ( I can't find the scars from the bad burns I got from the molten glass, or from the blowtorch either) I learned about vitamin E being used on burns from a report I read about a study done at a Canadian hospital on their burn patients. I didn't believe it until I started working with molten glass and got desperate. it works!
I make a slave using calendula,comfrey, lemon balm, and mallow….I will have to add self heal now too :) I love using cocoa butter in salves, wish it wasn’t so expensive though.
Great video. As a doctor, it is great to see you sticking to mostly peer reviewed scientific journals to make your health claims rather than myth and folklore.
ye, truly amazing that such beautiful, magic, blond elf from myths and folclore taks base on scientific journals. lil hippie look and mr "doctor" will send you to myth age. as myslef i said sux my folclore and go sell rediation to sb
I grew up in central PA, a bit north of Harrisburg and used to love running around the woods. Your videos almost make me regret living in the tropics now.
Love your smile and energy while speaking on this, bro. There really is good reason to be excited about these little plants and other natural substances that we rarely hear about in the mainstream. Keep up the good work! I thank you.🙏
I'm glad that the knowledge of plants is being spread around again. I't was trying to be eradicated by modern synthetic drug makers. My co-worker had an earache last night and he was saying how he needed some amoxicillin and I thought of my Mullen plant in back that was flowing. Mullen oil for earaches. I'm learning. I'm going to keep my eyes open for Self Heal.
I heard years ago that some of the books on these herbal remedies from the old days were bought up and destroyed. Same way Monsanto bought up antique seed sorting machines from farmers.
I was gonna make a comment saying you spelled cannabis wrong lol, but honestly wonderfully made video man. Mother Nature never ceases to amaze. One love. Plant based living forever
I have been aware of, and gathering, self heal for a few years now but never knew about the uv protection properties before watching this video. Thanks for the awesome info and keep these videos coming. I love your channel!
This would be an awesome natural sunblock. Store bought sun block completely blocks the sun, much of it contains carcinogens too, and we always wear sunglasses so we’re preventing valuable Vitamin D stores from building our immune system. Our skin and eyes is what absorbs Vitamin D and we’ve been programmed to be afraid of direct contact with sunlight 😤. Creation is for our benefit and it replenishes itself continually. So corporate America can take their “sustainability” and shove it!
As a child, raised in the rural Rockies, I got familiar with many plants. This one I saw, many times but till now had no knowledge of it. Thank you for this edification, I will now seek it out in Florida!
i appreciate the speed and clarity of the way you speak.. frequently I get impatient waiting for someone to "get to the point" and I skip ahead. Ain't no skippin with you Thanks
Going about my landscape work this summer, I kept seeing this plant and something told me to eat it. So I looked it up and then started eating it whenever I found it. After a week or so I began to feel great. Now I take the tincture and caps until it comes back next year.
I check your videos out here and there because they are awesome. I just saw your thumbnail and was like "man I know that thing grows in my yard and honestly I have no idea what it is." thanks for posting this man.
I am sorry I'm late Learn your Land, in case you still view your comments I want to let you know you are much appreciated. Your enthusiasm and knowledge are a blessing to us all. I am sure with all the craziness that is going on at this time there will be more people looking to nature for the answers to health. I love foraging it keeps me in the present time and aware of my surroundings. Now I have something else to look for bless you, flourish and prosper to all.
I know but the thing is knowing what plants they are talking about and making sure nobody has sprayed them with pesticides even in your own yard you have to be careful because the wind blows that stuff and it goes in the ground! Unfortunately, I worked at Monsanto and the group I worked for was Roundup and I know how that poison spreads especially when it rains~
@@Cupid_Stunt that’s actually very refreshing...but myself I hate going to the doctor or the chemist , so if I can find something to help in the field I’ll try it first ....sometimes these things are helpful.
Young man, you are such a pleasure to listen to! You even know how to decline the verb “to be.” So seldom do we hear the word “are.” Thanks for the info so well presented.
THANK YOU! I have long known how to identify self heal, but when I point it out to people and name it, they ALWAYS ask:”What’s it good for?” Until now, my answer was” Don’t know.” Now I do, with citations...very well done...A+
FASCINATING! Found this plant in my cul de sac 2 days ago & took photos for identification purposes. Was NOT researching it on RUclips but somehow your video popped into my queue!
@@johnfitbyfaithnet - It’s very creepy. Share WiFi with spouse & get pop up ads related to things HE ordered. Also have CONVERSATIONS at home & the next time I’m online there are references to those online & YT! Would love to figure out how to block this invasion of privacy. ***** Just researched & went to SETTINGS & turned OFF all ‘Siri’ & ‘Searches’ - will see what happens. 🤞🏻
I'm afraid that it is not more widely known because big pharma and corporate medical kabal demons have been burying the knowledge and teachers for at least a century if not thousands of years. There is no money to steal and profit to be made from God's wonderful natural and FREE MEDICINE. I am sorry the world is that way just now, but this young man gives me hope
I grow them from seeds in my raised bed. I decided to replace the green grass with All-Heal (self-heal, heal-all). Having all this All-Heal growing as my lawn, that means I won't have to cut the grass no more. I have Alfalfa and Sage growing as border. Bright Blessings!!!
This is the true knowledge everyone should be taught in schools across the world as standard!! This guy is inspiring and beaming with passion you do a great job keep it up!
Just saw this and am amazed to think that my yard in Ohio growing up was full of such a powerful little plant! I admired its flowers many times and thought they were shaped like pineapples! Thank you for your clear and inspiring teaching.
These used to be in my dad's wild hay field, got cut and baled like other plants, fed the cows. I, not knowing better called them coneflower due to thinking they looked like a green pinecone! Never knew they were good for people. That field got plowed years ago, to plant corn.
After "weeding" through so many other "naturalist" videos I'm so grateful to have "fell" upon your channel. Many, many thanks for providing all the incredible knowledge!
I appreciate your knowledge and the excitement with which you share it! So many of us know so little about the amazing properties of the plants with which God has blessed this globe and its people. Keep on sharing and thank you!
I've noticed this little 'weed' and wondered if it was a part of the mint family...Didn't take the time to research it though and now I'm sorry I didn't! Thanks as always for the great info Adam. Walked out my back door to dozens of these little marvels (I instantly recognized them in your video as I've looked at them closely before) and will be utilizing them thanks to you!
I like watching older videos from time to time. I'm going to look for this Self Heal today! Thank you so much for teaching us about the wonderful plants growing just about anywhere!
Thank you for the info! My hubby agreed to eat a dandelion salad with me last week!! It was so good, he loved it! I just found purple dead nettle in my back yard and will look for self heal the next few weeks, God's creations never cease to amaze me, be blessed out there in the woods :) My question is, do these store well or is it best to just use fresh as they come about in season? Thank you sir!!
LOL yes, this young man is very well grounded non neurotic and ' doesn't sweat the small stuff ' . ' Give me spots on the apples, but leave me the birds and the bees ' ( Joni Mitchell )
There's an older book,i think out of print but available used online."The Herb Book" buy John Lust. It is the most thorough I have found.i have the paperback and carry it in a ziplock bag every time I go to parks or woods.

You have been a great teacher. I am in Western New York and this is an amazing resource to have available. Hope to keep learning from your well put together videos.
Man, you are just amazing. I wish I could pick you up and plunk you down out here in the western high desert/high alpine areas so I could learn about this environment. I'm not native to this environment, but I'll probably ride out the rest of my life here, and I really don't know anything about this environment. I don't believe I've ever seen self-heal out here, but it sounds like its medicinal properties could really do me a great benefit. Thanks as always for your amazing videos, will definitely send any intelligent person I know to your channel.
you got my attention , i watched your video twice and took detailed notes . thankyou ! i love videos like this , knowledge ahh it washes over us all like a cool breeze .
dude, i love how your not reading a script, all this info is in your brain, your a walking encyclopedia, amazing info, i have this growing along the back of my house, thank you, i didnt know what it was until now. you rock.
Wow! thank you! I have sooo much growing on the land I'm living on, I was wondering if I could do anything with it. When I first saw it "ajuga" came into my head (I see plants and remember names, the same way you hear a song and suddenly remember the lyrics), but after some short research I found out it was a very similar looking plant called "prunella vulgaris" or "self-heal". Before tossing it into the compost pile as it's in the way of some garden plans I have, I wanted to research it a bit more. Initially I was underwhelmed, but others I spoke to said they loved this herb. Now that I've seen your video, I love it too. I'm also glad I discovered you!
Right! This is the plant which I have been looking for! I suffer from photosensitivity, inflammation and allergy symptoms/too active immunity system! And Self heal is growing on my lawn!!! Thank you veryuch for the info!!!

My co-worker had an earache last night and he was saying how he needed some amoxicillin and I thought of my Mullen plant in back that was flowing. Mullen oil for earaches. I'm learning. I'm going to keep my eyes open for Self Heal.
I heard years ago that some of the books on these herbal remedies from the old days were bought up and destroyed.
Same way Monsanto bought up antique seed sorting machines from farmers.
I was gonna make a comment saying you spelled cannabis wrong lol, but honestly wonderfully made video man. Mother Nature never ceases to amaze. One love. Plant based living forever
I have been aware of, and gathering, self heal for a few years now but never knew about the uv protection properties before watching this video. Thanks for the awesome info and keep these videos coming. I love your channel!
This would be an awesome natural sunblock. Store bought sun block completely blocks the sun, much of it contains carcinogens too, and we always wear sunglasses so we’re preventing valuable Vitamin D stores from building our immune system. Our skin and eyes is what absorbs Vitamin D and we’ve been programmed to be afraid of direct contact with sunlight 😤. Creation is for our benefit and it replenishes itself continually. So corporate America can take their “sustainability” and shove it!
Seriously, the most informative and right to the point video out there and its free! Great videos. Thank you
As a child, raised in the rural Rockies, I got familiar with many plants. This one I saw, many times but till now had no knowledge of it. Thank you for this edification, I will now seek it out in Florida!
One of the most intelligent authors of plans on RUclips, a pleasure to listen to
i appreciate the speed and clarity of the way you speak.. frequently I get impatient waiting for someone to "get to the point" and I skip ahead. Ain't no skippin with you Thanks
God has provided all that we need.
That's what I think too !
Isn't it amazing!
He didn't have to. It all was growing out there already.
Amen, yes he did, and for every other living thing too. We should want for nothing.
@@ericr4764 that's like saying parents didn't have to give the world strollers because the babies were out there anyway.
Going about my landscape work this summer, I kept seeing this plant and something told me to eat it. So I looked it up and then started eating it whenever I found it. After a week or so I began to feel great. Now I take the tincture and caps until it comes back next year.
I check your videos out here and there because they are awesome. I just saw your thumbnail and was like "man I know that thing grows in my yard and honestly I have no idea what it is."
thanks for posting this man.
we need more great young guys like you. Keep it up! awesome man!
I am sorry I'm late Learn your Land, in case you still view your comments I want to let you know you are much appreciated. Your enthusiasm and knowledge are a blessing to us all. I am sure with all the craziness that is going on at this time there will be more people looking to nature for the answers to health. I love foraging it keeps me in the present time and aware of my surroundings. Now I have something else to look for bless you, flourish and prosper to all.
Ditto Rosemarie 👍
You should make a foraging iPhone app with all this info.
I'd buy it !
farceadentus great idea
Me too!
Then you people wouldn't learn anything
I know but the thing is knowing what plants they are talking about and making sure nobody has sprayed them with pesticides even in your own yard you have to be careful because the wind blows that stuff and it goes in the ground! Unfortunately, I worked at Monsanto and the group I worked for was Roundup and I know how that poison spreads especially when it rains~
👋🏻 Meetoo
Boys and I are eating it like crazy it is everywhere thanks Adam you're an inspirational man!
Really happy I found your channel. Quality.
Great video sir and I like the respect you paid to the plant by dressing in a matching coloured outfit! Blessings and peace
I really like your channel. I learn so much from your short clips.
In these trouble times, we need people like hime
@@Cupid_Stunt well, of course we all die in the end , it’s about living as good as you can.
@@Cupid_Stunt that’s actually very refreshing...but myself I hate going to the doctor or the chemist , so if I can find something to help in the field I’ll try it first ....sometimes these things are helpful.
Just another amazing creation from our loving God!!
I wasn't aware of this plant. It grows locally so I'll being utilising it now. Great informative video again. Many thanks.
Fantastic coverage of a fantastic plant. It was very pleasant to get this refresher from you. ✌🏻💚😌 Thx!
One of my favorite channels! This man is an awesome teacher!
Young man, you are such a pleasure to listen to! You even know how to decline the verb “to be.” So seldom do we hear the word “are.” Thanks for the info so well presented.
THANK YOU! I have long known how to identify self heal, but when I point it out to people and name it, they ALWAYS ask:”What’s it good for?” Until now, my answer was” Don’t know.” Now I do, with citations...very well done...A+
FASCINATING! Found this plant in my cul de sac 2 days ago & took photos for identification purposes. Was NOT researching it on RUclips but somehow your video popped into my queue!
That's a bit creepy. But I agree, fascinating
@@johnfitbyfaithnet - It’s very creepy. Share WiFi with spouse & get pop up ads related to things HE ordered. Also have CONVERSATIONS at home & the next time I’m online there are references to those online & YT! Would love to figure out how to block this invasion of privacy.
***** Just researched & went to SETTINGS & turned OFF all ‘Siri’ & ‘Searches’ - will see what happens. 🤞🏻
I have felt my tablet can read my mind as these things happen so much.
@@joycehaines34 - Oh yes; they’re listening!!!
Fantastic overview of this precious herb. Thank you so much!
I was impressed when I discovered this plant and wonder why it is not more well known.
I'm afraid that it is not more widely known because big pharma and corporate medical kabal demons have been burying the knowledge and teachers for at least a century if not thousands of years.
There is no money to steal and profit to be made from God's wonderful natural and FREE MEDICINE.
I am sorry the world is that way just now, but this young man gives me hope
I grow them from seeds in my raised bed. I decided to replace the green grass with All-Heal (self-heal, heal-all). Having all this All-Heal growing as my lawn, that means I won't have to cut the grass no more. I have Alfalfa and Sage growing as border. Bright Blessings!!!
A naturalized lawn of sorts nice... I love moss lol
I absolutely love how you are seemingly genuine to help people,I'm learning so much from your content and want to thank you for this
What if I say;May God Bless You For Standing With His Work Of Herbal Medicine For Mankind! May God Bless You Forever,son.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Wow, i am from Northeast India, Its very common here, i didn't know about it's medicinal properties. Thank you for this information.
Thanks for showing Self Heal! Let it shine! I need to hit the trail!
This is the true knowledge everyone should be taught in schools across the world as standard!!
This guy is inspiring and beaming with passion you do a great job keep it up!
You could put it in a morning smoothie along with frozen fruits and frozen vegetables. I can get a lot of good things in there for breakfast.
Yes, that's a great idea!
Just saw this and am amazed to think that my yard in
Ohio growing up was full of such a powerful little plant!
I admired its flowers many times and thought they were shaped like pineapples!
Thank you for your clear and inspiring teaching.
These used to be in my dad's wild hay field, got cut and baled like other plants, fed the cows. I, not knowing better called them coneflower due to thinking they looked like a green pinecone! Never knew they were good for people. That field got plowed years ago, to plant corn.
I AM IMPRESSED😂 Your video is very very Thorough. I will watching and recommending your videos!!! THANK YOU😊
I can not ever get enough of his information
After "weeding" through so many other "naturalist" videos I'm so grateful to have "fell" upon your channel. Many, many thanks for providing all the incredible knowledge!
I appreciate your knowledge and the excitement with which you share it! So many of us know so little about the amazing properties of the plants with which God has blessed this globe and its people. Keep on sharing and thank you!
I've noticed this little 'weed' and wondered if it was a part of the mint family...Didn't take the time to research it though and now I'm sorry I didn't! Thanks as always for the great info Adam. Walked out my back door to dozens of these little marvels (I instantly recognized them in your video as I've looked at them closely before) and will be utilizing them thanks to you!
I think my mind just popped. This plant plus Stinging Nettle and I can tap into a new way of being.😎 👍
I like watching older videos from time to time. I'm going to look for this Self Heal today! Thank you so much for teaching us about the wonderful plants growing just about anywhere!
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for the info! My hubby agreed to eat a dandelion salad with me last week!! It was so good, he loved it! I just found purple dead nettle in my back yard and will look for self heal the next few weeks, God's creations never cease to amaze me, be blessed out there in the woods :)
My question is, do these store well or is it best to just use fresh as they come about in season? Thank you sir!!
Just a few days ago, I was noticing this plant in my son's lawn and wondering what it was. Now I know so I will be harvesting it for tea at least.
Awesome, Helen!
You have my respect for recording this articulate video with so many mosquitoes zooming past the mic.
LOL yes, this young man is very well grounded non neurotic and ' doesn't sweat the small stuff ' . ' Give me spots on the apples, but leave me the birds and the bees ' ( Joni Mitchell )
No script. Well spoken and interesting. Respects from Canada.
This guy really knows his stuff!!
man your info is invaluable. nature really can help us if we don't wreck it all.
Thanks! And I agree with you.
I wish he would end all of his videos with how to best utilize the plants. How to prepare them for ingesting would really help!
There's an older book,i think out of print but available used online."The Herb Book" buy John Lust. It is the most thorough I have found.i have the paperback and carry it in a ziplock bag every time I go to parks or woods.
pattianne pascual thanks for the tip 😃.
He explains and shows how to with some edible foods
@7:16
He gave a rough idea about 7mins in. Bear in mind he's a nature guy, not a chef.
Clear, thorough, and as always, enthusiastically engaged with your (our) world. Always appreciated!
Thank you!
Thank you would like to know if an herb exists for osteoarthritis like anti inflammatory properties. Nettles great calcium content,
I love your channel it is so informative you are certainly very knowledgeable and l admire your commitment to helping people to find healthier options. 😊😊😊😊🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Love that you talk from the heart and experience... not reading from a script!
Just found you. I love this!!!! You also look like my 11 yo nephew all grown up.
Can’t wait to binge your channel!
Sounds like it is high in whole molecule vitamin C when you refer to the artery and gum healing. Thanks!
Long life to you, son.thank you ❤️
Very interesting as a retired nurse ihave reverted to. Plant healing.
What a teacher he is, thank you.
You have been a great teacher. I am in Western New York and this is an amazing resource to have available. Hope to keep learning from your well put together videos.
Thanks for stopping by and commenting! Glad you enjoy these videos!
Well done young man........👍
Man, you are just amazing. I wish I could pick you up and plunk you down out here in the western high desert/high alpine areas so I could learn about this environment. I'm not native to this environment, but I'll probably ride out the rest of my life here, and I really don't know anything about this environment. I don't believe I've ever seen self-heal out here, but it sounds like its medicinal properties could really do me a great benefit. Thanks as always for your amazing videos, will definitely send any intelligent person I know to your channel.
Hey thanks! I appreciate your support!
Try the book “botany in a day” it’s a good start
Order a bag of neem leaves
It is easily grown and there are sources to buy seeds online.
Grow your own. Even in containers. I'm working on being self sufficient as possible
Thank you dollin! Bless ya!
I wish all young people would be this much intelligent and willing to learn , awesome job sir , thank you .
This seems a labor of love, many young are scared about futures and the costs of living so are seeking escapes or quick, lucrative ' easy money' .
you got my attention , i watched your video twice and took detailed notes . thankyou ! i love videos like this , knowledge ahh it washes over us all like a cool breeze .
Wow! So helpful. This stuff is everywhere, and to know how helpful it is-- won't be wasting it anymore. Thanks!
Well spoken young man! I will look for it. Hopefully it grows in Alberta
One of the first bloom in the spring. Bees love it!
dude, i love how your not reading a script, all this info is in your brain, your a walking encyclopedia, amazing info, i have this growing along the back of my house, thank you, i didnt know what it was until now. you rock.
Wow! thank you! I have sooo much growing on the land I'm living on, I was wondering if I could do anything with it. When I first saw it "ajuga" came into my head (I see plants and remember names, the same way you hear a song and suddenly remember the lyrics), but after some short research I found out it was a very similar looking plant called "prunella vulgaris" or "self-heal". Before tossing it into the compost pile as it's in the way of some garden plans I have, I wanted to research it a bit more. Initially I was underwhelmed, but others I spoke to said they loved this herb. Now that I've seen your video, I love it too. I'm also glad I discovered you!
This is one of my favorite plants, so it is really cool to see someone make a video about how underappreciated it is.
This plant has a lovely, clean smell when it's cut.
No "um"..."uh"...No script... STRAIGHT TO THE POINT!! Subscribed!
Very informative. Thank you. Will be following your channel.
Wow super amazing. Just discovered some a few days ago and was marveling at how beautiful it was. Thank you!!!
Love the information presented in a scientific way! Love the Smile! Thanks!
Central Ontario it's everywhere I notice and my bees somtimes go to it . Thank You
Superb presentation all the way around
Right! This is the plant which I have been looking for! I suffer from photosensitivity, inflammation and allergy symptoms/too active immunity system! And Self heal is growing on my lawn!!! Thank you veryuch for the info!!!
