Markus, you my friend are a gift from God to us and we love you.
This is great! Manzanita is one plant I can easily recognize and we have lots of them here in Prescott, AZ. My girlfriend often complains of urinary tract infections. I will have to make this for her next time and see how it works. Thank you for a great video:-)
To grind the branches down to a fine power, soak the branches in warm water or at room temperature water over night. When the branches are fully hydrated, put them and the water used to soak the branches back into the blender and pulverize. Everything will turn into a foam. Pour the foaming liquid onto a silicon sheet and spread out evenly. (Metal and parchment paper really doesn't work) Next, put into a warm dry area with a fan on low directly aimed at the silicon sheet. In 24 hours the foam will dry enough that you can place contents back into the blender and pulverize. Everything will turn to a power. I know it sounds like a lot of work but this works for any hard dried roots, like Osha, Ginseng and others.
Would a dehydrator preserve the properties better rather than the fan method ? Thank you for your detailed process.
Excellent!!! I'm sold ... silly word!!! Btw, cats show up when there's a strong positive vibration!!!
love u Markus... thanks for being here on this planet, serving humanity as u do, and showing what it is like to be love and joy. please contact me sometime, like now, or today, id love to be more your friend, and talk, and even work together or collaborate on something wonderful, blessings, love & peace - Owen.
I'm so stoked that I watched your video. I'm using organic cut comfrey root for a poultice to apply to the bulging discs in my neck....but I needed to make into powder, which is harder to purchase. I suspected I could use my coffee grinder, and now I know how to do it! So awesome....thanks:))
@angelbe88 Areyou kidding? It's one of the most powerful healing herbs- it's rich in polyphenolic flavonoids, 2 of which are powerful antiseptics. Oregano oil contains over 50 compounds with antimicrobial actions that inhibit candida growth, bacteria, yeast, viruses and parasites. It even slows down diabetes complications. It's great for travellers fighting foreign bacteria. It can be applied topically tp fight nail and fungus infections.
How can i Turn the catnip plant to powder without using Equipments
Use the grain attachment of vitamix for fine powder. Don't need coffee grinder
B Saver yes so true it’s the Dry blade...
Torpac in the USA has a semi-automatic encapsulator for 100 caps, to make capsules at home easily and quickly. It is really good and it is a family conpany. One can choose what size plates. Size 0 is the best for me, because 00 is too big to swallow easily, I think. I had my encapsulator for years.
@TheMalavia Yes of course you can powder them- check out my other video on how to make powders. half a teaspoon with water 3x a day half hour before meals
ur awesome dude, and your so right. sadly people believe doctors and their paid bs
ok
Better to GROW your own medicinal plants instead of getting them elsewhere as they could be sprayed with insecticides or defoliants which will make you terribly sick. Great video dude!
I prefer to make a liquid extract, and then dehydrate it into a concentrated powder. This seems to be uncommon in western herbalism but common in Chinese herbalism, and I believe it makes for better more concentrated medicine that also releases a wider array of plant constituents into the body; as the body may not be able to break down some important constituents from simple blended herbs.
What you said about trying to rely less on chemicals and modern medicines is exactly why I am watching this video. I'm slowly learning more and more about natural herbs and their healing properties, and it's a very enriching and enlightening journey. I'm loving every bit of it. Thanks for showing us how to powder them. Is there another way to grind just leaves and flowers without a blender or a grinder? Please suggest, thanks! =)
Cheers from Malaysia!
hi Markus, just wondering what is the purpose of minimizing contact with metal? does it affect the herbs? is using metal/Stainless steel bad for our Health? Love your videos. Thanks!
ivandlc01 Most metals are a challenge to the body, and many contain toxic heavy metals. Most stainless steel for example contains nickel, a carcinogen. Also, metal conducts electricity and interferes with the body's electrical system. In nature, there is very little contact with refined metal. The colloidal metals we do get from nature are distilled from the ground through the roots of plants into a useable form that our bodies can use, unlike raw metal we get from silverware etc. It's not a big deal high on a list, but still something to be mildly aware of
Markus Rothkranz Are you a pharmacist?
@4GreenEarth2 Yes I have a few formulas for liver, colon, parasites, anti-aging etc. I don't really make a lot of money with them, they are a hassle to make, but it's for people who don't have the time or desire to harvest and prepare their own. Just doing my bit to help. I don't know how much longer I'll be making them, they take so much of my time and money, but they ARE what I personally take. They're at MarkusProducts com
I wish you lived here with me in Nicaragua so we could go foraging together!!!! You are amazing. Thank you for sharing your talents.
Thanks so much. I’m going to start making lots of herb powders. I’m starting with nettle and horse tail. Great work. I am send sufficient in foods and live a permaculture lifestyle teaching others now you’ve added another dimension to my self sufficiency
Nature has so much power.... God has so much power.. Thanks for the info bruh
Thank you! I can't tell you how helpful this video was. I had been using a vitamix to try and grind my own vitamin c powder with dried rosehips. It was my first time experimenting to attempt to powder an herb and the contents got so hot without fully powdering it. I was completely missing the taking it back to the coffee grinder and then sifting part, which makes all the difference. I'm so excited to have learned how to do this! Now I can get that jar of chunky rosehip powder and filter it into something I hope is actually enjoyable to drink : ) Update: Worked and tastes great. Also just powdered peppermint leaf and licorice and astragaulus root, ending up with a bowl of nice powder and a sifter of almost hay like bark fluff!! I can use that for tea. So fun!
Markus, I am so glad you are doing teaching videos. You are full of knowledge. Please keep them coming.
Great video. To reduce metal contact try a salt/pepper or old herb shaker with fine holes. Can put the thick bits back in the coffee grinder and repeat!
Wow! Hard branch. This is a video 12 years ago. I only come across it now. Cool. 😊
What is a great coffee grinder for $25 or less (i guess more is okay if that is what it takes) and what coffee grinders should I avoid? I want to grind leaf and stems into the finest powder/dust possible. I don't care if it is electric or hand powered, as long as it doesn't make a mess and can grind up to 3 spoonfuls (of already coarse ground) at a time and works within a short amount of time and the quieter it is, the better.
A Turkish Coffee Grinder? I think it would be neat to be non-electric, because it would be good exercise and make less vibration/noise.
I've spent countless hours looking for alternatives, because my coffee grinder requires you to press down on the container to grind, and it clumps in the corners, stopping the grinding and so you have to shake while grinding and leaf powder emits from it constantly because it doesn't seal shut, making it a horrible useless device.

Great video.. You're awesome haha. Love the cat though bubbles. Thank you Markus
where did you get your plant knowledge from? You know what your talking about and I'm curious!
Maybe google or a botanic book, not hard to look up herbs and plants that help you with what you need
Hi Markus,
Markus I love your humor and natural health content. Its incredible how so much food is out there just waiting to be eaten. I get educated from the Thai Elders they know what to eat not like the younger generation.I love your Great Natural Health presentations your different from all the rest ,Thank You from Barry Gourmet & Raw.
LOL LOVE the cat snippets!!! :D hahaha... yeah man!!
Owen fox - Conscious, Healthy, Happy Living I dig the cat in the window too! what a cutie
Might want to look into why you have the cough, rather than just trying to suppress it with an herb.
Do you use the Vitqmix wet container for dry herbs or do you have and recommend a dry goods container ?
enjoyed learning how to powder plants. i like to start growing my own herbs in my apt. and start powdering them. THX
Im 11 years late but im a newbie and this is so cool to see
Thank you so much!!!! I'm a master herbalist, but did not know about Silk Tassle or Manzanita. Cant wait to have grandaughter try Silk Tassle, She suffers so. You are such a wonderful resource.... Blessings,
The answer is not "what to take" but what to stop doing that causes the problems, otherwise its like trying to put out fire with water while at the same time pouring gasoline on it and fueling it even more. ruclips.net/video/AgJIYLgSC7o/видео.html
I have an important question that I need answered please...
Well... I thought when a plant dries and turns brown, it loses its nutrients... I would dry moringa leaves, and the longer they took to dry, the browner they would be. However, if I got them to dry over night, they would still be green. So the faster a plant dries, the more green it would be.
So I am wondering if that makes a difference in nutritional value.
Well if you consider 50 "young", thank you :-) as to my story, read the book "Heal Yourself 101"
Yes.
Great video, you have a great personality and presence for teaching. I notice you didn't mention tinctures. I look forward to eventually growing and processing my own herbs in the near future.
Markus, where would I go about finding these two plants?
You can also buy a capsule maker and do 25 or even 100 at a time depending on the size of the capsule maker ;)
I love it I do this with my mulberry tree leaves , and my vegetables for my soup
Love how your video looked like it was filmed in the 70s lol
maybe it was
Wow you single handedly solved a lot of my lady problems, I had no clue what to do naturally for a uti, most I found was cranberry juice and a few others, you are seriously wonderful!!!!!
2023 got me tuning in 👌 thank you ✌️💯
You are changing my life and it becomes wonderful, thank you Markus
I live in manzanita desert
Yes!
That cat i literally just said to myself the cat looked at him and the bush outside then back like he was crazy his eyes bugged out and everything, LOL!
the comment from the cat was funny because the cat is looking like whats he doing i never seen a human doing this.... or is curious
This is gold...
Markus, you are so much fun to watch! Here I am...it is almost 4am and i can't shut off the computer. I laugh so much with the kitty input in the video!!! Thank you,thank you! i had a tough day at work and you made it all better. Sometimes, laugh is the better medicine. :-))
this is really interesting. I'm a big fan of natural herbs and finding ways to cut out drugs as far as I possibly can unless it's absolutely necessary. this is worth saving and trying!
I need to make silk tassel capsules!
Mark- do you sell the dried leaves or powder? It is impossible to find
jill c grow your own
Hi Markus. Thanks for the great video! I am curious. You appear to be a younger man, so I am interested in knowing how you became interested in herbalism, as well as, where you've gained so much knowledge in such a short (young) time? Thanks again and keep up the great work!
I LOVE this guy!!! Spirit of my spirit! Oh,I purchased your book recently,but I still do not know which herb is which. I wish I have a mentor ... Keep spreading life messages Markus!
He is really a smart guy
I need to start doing this I've got a cupboard full of bag's of powders haha, waiting for the newest Dandelion's in my garden to finish then I'm going to do them :-) x
How do u dry out your dandelion?
@@AfroCari.Naturals I lay them out on kitchen paper and cover them in kitchen paper then leave somewhere dry, in a cupboard and they dry naturally in about 2 or 3 days, you can them grind them to a powder in your Nutribullet
@@sewsooze68 Aww thank you. I am going to try this method and do a video on it too...I picked some Dandelions and Nettle leaves in my garden yesterday..thanks.
Wow your first vitamix
Dear Markus, I am so glad I found you! I have terrible menstrual pain, and am looking for silk tassels. Could you please tell me where you found yours? I am based out of Southern California.
Naina Sethi Hello Naina, I suggest you download the FEMALE1 ebook at www.MarkusEbooks.com. Instead of looking for a magic potion, pill or powder to make your symptoms go away, it's much better to get rid of the cause. My night formula will help once your body is clean and you stop eating and doing the things that cause the problem. Also read "Heal Yourself 101" for the overall lifestyle and diet guide to healing anything. www.HealAnything.com
This is all very interesting and makes me want to learn more. When you buy supplements from a store, they add lots of filler and chemicals which can't be good, and they mark it up so high
YOU ROCK BROTHER..KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.
Thank you so much for this! Much Peace, Love & Balance To You!! ❤️
I would have loved to have known of the anti cramp herb, silk tassel.
I suffered sooooo horribly from cramps, I usually had to just stay home from school, a day or two and often Rx drugs to ease the pain.
I don't live where manzanita or S.T. grows.
I'd love to buy some of the whole [dried] herb from you.
I know many girls who still suffer painfully from cramps, too.
L.R. Chamberlain If they eat right, they won't get cramps in the first place. I suggest they all read "Heal Yourself 101" www.HealYourselfbook.com The answer is never "what shouldI take" but usually "What should I stop doing" :-)
What do you do with dandelion roots? They are everywhere now, huge! Roast the roots and grind, to make a coffee? Or should you dry and grind the roots and keep them raw. Does anyone do this? Looks like they are very good for the liver or you can put in a jar with vodka to make a tincture.
I'm watching this 2024 and I'm veey grateful ❤
Really like this guys energy
Read your book "Heal Yourself 101" and just ordered your Free Living DVD's and Free Food and Medicine DVD's. Can't get enough of your stuff! Thanks for what you are teaching! Truth does set you free! I tell everyone about you and your youtube videos! Keep it up!
Marcus, I love that you always come up along the path in my journey. Very cool video! ❤️
Thanks for all the knowledge!
Is it ok to powder plants by mixer grinder? I think it burns some of the phytochemicals
Thank to you my teacher you save a lot of life bless you.
Hello Markus, do you think that manzanita can be grown in Europe, (the Czech Republic), or you would not recommend it to be planted there, when it naturally does not grow there? If you would not recommend growing it in Europe, could you recommend a different plant, with similar healing effects? Thank you very much for your answer : - ) And thank you for what you do : - )
blendtec yes! I powder my chaga in there, which is like chunks of wood.
awesome Markus :) Im an affiliate and fan of your spirit, and work, and huge wild food enthusiast too :) author of self help/inspiration/healing books like u too! Right now im powdereing my own wild green herbal powerplants that i pick myself. Just wanted to make sure blending at high speed is sufficient. I think i nsimply need a finer strainer right now actually! ha . love , fun light and laughter brotha
hi sir!does putting the plant in fridge wouldn't affect the nutritional status of the plant?
Hello Mr Markus l admired your great work for us to live better longer life.How can l obtain manzanita powder or capsols. Thanks.
thanks brother. brilliant info i havent found anywhere else on the net. thank you Markus!
Wow I just discovered your channel, you are amazing, love it!
Markus do you sell powdered manzanita?
I never knew about this thank you
Nuts that this was made over a decade ago, and I'm coming to it after all this time
Markus! You're great man.
Will you make one App which there will be all your known plants explained in it. So we can watch your RUclips videos and read about the plants.
www.edibleplantguide.com
Wow, you are very detailed. I am going to start to powder herbs but I can't get the fancy blender so I guess coffee grinder it is. Double O capsules, got it. I will get them too
Great energy! Great information! You're the best! I have a question. Have you done nettle root powder extract? I was digging in my garden in Sweden last year and let the roots dry for a week, but then I didn't found a way to make a powder. I only found the tincture method where you use alcohol. But I want the powder. I have sting nettle everywhere. And I have the Vitamix ;)
Where can you find silk tassle and manzanita plants, I take it that you found them near where you live? Does it grow everywhere or certain parts of the country? I do not believe I have seen these where I live in Florida or where I used to live in Louisiana.
Thank you so much dearest sweeties💐
You're such an inspiration 🙏😇
Stay Blessings always 🕉💖
@souljahleeready These are primarily desert plants, but you can either grow them indoors or maybe find some of it online or the next time when you have some fun in Vegas, pull over to the side of the rod and get some :)
Great information.may I grind the henna leaf in the same way?please please inform me.thank you
LOL at the "I don't don't need this" caption. I don't need it either, I do need Vitamin A and Beta Carotene though.
Never heard of those plants .. Markus .. do they grow in North Carolina ?? :) Can u powder holy basil... the stem leaves and the flowers.. or do u recommend making a tincture instead ?? one more potent than the other ??? Ohhhh my .. YOU ARE Sooo APPRECIATED !!! Thank you for allll you do ...sending ohhh so much love to you ~~
Thank you
Btw kitty is supercute..what a pretty face
which species of manzanita is that? Or does it matter? Do they all work the same?
Awesome. Who would have known.
I love the cat! He is listening!
Commercial sold herbal powdered extracts often claim a 20:1 strength ratio. Can somebody explain to me how to calculate the native extract ratio? Is this simply the weight in ratio of the (dried or fresh?) mass of herbal material, compared to the mass of the resulting native herbal preparation?
Hi Markus,
Enjoyed your video so much I shared it on my blog
Love your ways! Have you thought of pressing herbs into spoons or bowls to replace single use containers
I have a young daughter that has began her... and complains about cramps. I will try this and let you know.
Did it work ?
How do you clean the plants when you pick them
Hi, You video is great. I want to make chamomile flower powder and I am wondering if I use the whole flower or part of the flower. Thanks.
Thank you. This is amazing! Live it
Good stuff Markus
