Thank you for your information. Do you have another video that shows how to process the Oregon grape root you harvested for consumption and how much we should consume each day, etc... Thanks😊...
Hey there! So happy this is helpful for you. I don’t have a video on Oregon grape specifically, but I am teaching a live class on tincture making next week. It will help answer this question for you. Let me know if you’d like the link to sign up for the class. ✌🏽💚🌍🌼🌿
You’re so welcome! As always just be sure you’re in an area of great abundance, don’t take more than you need, and offer a bit of love & gratitude to the plants and the land! 💚🙏🏼💚
I'm not finding Oregon Grape listed as a bitter in any of the herbal sites I trust, though I do agree that it's excellent for digestion and acid reflex.
Oh wow! It’s actually the first herb I learned about bitters from. It’s roots are very rich in Berberine, which has major bitters properties. You can tell by its bitter taste, & the yellow roots. Very common sign of berberine & the bitters. It’s fantastic for improving liver function & with that digestion.
I purchased a small amount of Oregon Grape dried root shavings, but I can't figure out what to do with it. I tried to create a powder by grinding it with a spice grinder but it is too hard. Not sure if I can make a tea with this. The description on the product webpage says "intended for further proccessing."
I would tincture it asap. Grinding dried roots can be really hard on a spice grinder. You could also decoct it, but it will be far from delightful to taste. We have a tincture ratio chart in my Making Herbal Tinctures class if you're up for a deeper dive in how to do it. You can access it here: www.theherbalistspath.com/how-to-make-herbal-tinctures
