NOTE: This information is meant for educational purposes only .I am NOT a doctor nor pretend to be one. Nothing I say should be used to replace professional medical counseling. Also, PLEASE do your OWN research!
NOTE: Please check out my newest and so far best pain remedy extract here: ruclips.net/video/gm_UN7sTfqg/видео.html
ALSO: I tend to get to yammering in my videos and then forget to mention a few important details. For example - this extract is for INTERNAL use for various pains including headaches, joint pain, and muscle aches. Also, after allowing the herbs to sit in the solvent for 6-8 weeks, I strain out the herbs and store in a glass jar or bottle in a cool, dark cabinet
One question I have seen other videos where I guess it was in the “tincture “ method rather then extract, they would boil the contents with the alcohol which they used in the video everclear grain alcohol that’s close to 90% alcohol and boil it until it’s about half of the original volume. I like your method better it seems simpler but I do understand that with the alcohol or tincture method rather then the extract method the results would be a stronger product. So two questions, 1) then with the extract method no boiling is necessary, right? You just store for four to 6 weeks then strain it. And then 2) for commercially made extract products that you see in the stores, what is typically used most, vinegar, or alcohol when they make their products? And is it possible to make a extract with alcohol and just strain it after 4 to 6 weeks and not boil it like I have seen in other videos? Thank you great video also can you recommend a good site for medicinal plant seeds? I suffer from chronic pain with fibromyalgia and neuropathy also joint pain, the pharmaceuticals that were prescribed to me were killing me and giving me ulcers and gerd, and many digestive disorders that almost literally killed me, I started taking ginger root, turmeric, and garlic and I feel cured from my digestive disorders but I still am having painful nerve pain that keeps me up at night. Thank you for your videos, eastern medicine the doctors only are paid if the patient stays healthy, western medicine the doctors only get paid if the patient stays sick. 😷 🤷♂️ 🧐🤔 Thanks again God Bless
Also it’s important to note that recently glyphosate has been found in store bought wines, beers and alcohol, with traces to leading back to Monsanto. Glyphosate has links to causing lymphoma cancer, and to fibromyalgia and neurological disorders. If you think you have any condition that maybe a result of pesticides or other chemicals that cause any of your pain related issues, we are supposed to be compensated after the most recent ruling in court over Monsanto. Monsanto is a monster that corporation should be driven out of business, they literally are the devil. No ifs ands or buts about it they make business out of destroying Gods creations, I think that’s the text book definition of the devil. Anyway they really upset me but I thought I would mention that, because it’s good that you make your own wine and vinegar. Thanks again God Bless
If you run that through a still I'm sure it Will extract more the flavor out
@@isaacwillson8617 I take herbs for pains but I realize that praying give me more results. I also speak to the pains like Jesus did speak to the demons and commanded them to leave. He said that what he did we also can do and even more. He gave us all we need to trumph.
@number1hinesfeet It really depends, much of the glass bottles (indluding the brown swing top beer bottles I use for extracts) and jars I use I have obtained from garage sales but my swing top clear 1 liter bottles are Italian made and high quality. I purchased them new. Some bottles are recycled maple syrup bottles.
I put valerianroot, lots of poppy pods, astragalas, ashwaganda, a couple holy basils, lemon grass in everclear for 6 months , cool dark place. I know poppies are bad. But honestly a shot of this tincture in a good root beer tasted good, and really did fix everything. If you use it as medicine, it’s better than anything you can get in stores
Very good information. The Lord has put every herb in the ground whether one or a combination with other things to heal all sicknesses and diseases. Thank you for the heart to do this.
Thank you great Creator and thank you for voicing that out we have a great God. It is scripture that he put the herbs here for us yeah baby
Mother Earth grows everything; Mother Earth provides. God and Satan are the same people and is a delusion. You didn't come into the planet from gods world; you came out of the planet, like a wave from the ocean. That's why herbs, plants, roots and natural remedies work, in your biological, organic physiology.
Amen, do you have any tips for using our Blessed poppy plant for pain management
@@gregoryg6999 be super careful is what I've heard.
that's exactly what I thought when saw this. P.somniferum was put here by God too, but it's illegal@@gregoryg6999
@Rain Country
What an amazing channel, I am subscribed as of today. Can't wait to watch others. I have quite a few "homemade herbalists " on hand but your channel incorporates God & His love of beautiful things. I've never seen a channel like it. I'm sure there are some but this feels so much more down-to-earth. A great gardening tie in! 😂
Thank you
We are in SC have a good friend in Wyoming who has MS and I'm going to tell her about your great channel God bless you, I have been led to many good Christian channels I'm surely aware God is helping me know what and where I need to learn. Proverbs 3:13
Black seed oil helps with MS. Also diet beef and pork free
I am so excited to try this! I am growing herbs and dehydrating them as well. I also purchased some dried herbs this week as well. I now grab a note card and pen when I watch your videos and take notes. Your great! Thanks for all the knowledge!
You are incredible. What a gift to those of us that have found you.
Blessings
I cannot put into words how appreciative I am of your knowledge and abilities in this area!!!
And, your willingness to share. I remain in awe. I love learning from you!!!
Love & prayers
Thank you Kathleen! :D
@@RainCountryHomestead Hello, I have a question. Before You strain the herbs do you simmer in low heat on the stove or is that not a good thing to do? Hope You hear back from You....
@@6496chase No, I do not expose to any heat at all. It is really unnecessary.
❤
❤Can these herbs be grown in my backyard or balcony windows??? And how and where do I get the seeds???❤
You are such an inspiration! I'm rarely take OTC meds & I'm thankful not to have any prescriptions. I have a headache & I'm really wishing I had some of your tincture. I will be making it asap!
Yes God is good all of the Time ! God Bless you
I purchased both of the recommended books. Thanks Heidi!!
I like how you show both the ultra-precise way of doing things for those who are unsure of how to get started AND the more "eh, some of this, a little of that, let it sit" way (which appeals to those of use more guided by intuition than teaspoons).
☺️
Thank you Heidi for teaching this topic. I am a newbie to this and already have one of the books. Love watching you!
Amy's book is excellent, it is now my favorite, she is so thorough. I am pretty much a "fly by the seat of my pants" person when it comes to making extracts but she is very precise so I recommend her to newbies. Hers is the "Homesteaders Herbal Companion"
Thank you, Heidi from the bottom of my heart.
I like your information. I am an amateur herbal person. My kids and I used to know the Latin name and properties of over 50 plants here in eastern Washington. I am relearning the info with my grandkids. It is fun. Thank you for sharing your story
I bought both books and love them. Thanks for the recommendation.
I'll have to come back to watch this. Thank you Hidi.
I am giving you so many big unseen hugs thank you for sharing. May you be blessed a thousand fold and receive it amen
With everything going on, I have been, binge watching your videos, wish you had a book with your recipes.
Thank you for such a thorough extract video. Will definitely be checking out those books.
Thank you again you are so good at this stuff hoping to know more and more as I hear you teaching us.
thank you for sharing, and this is giving me the inspiration to carry on what my family has done similar to this. Bless be to you and your family my friend.
excited to see how this works
Great video!!! I’m looking forward to the antibiotic one!
Thanks again Heidi for another informative video, I just ordered both books from your link. Love all you and Mr Rain do, Hugs
Thank you Patti!
I guess I had missed this one- glad you mentioned it- not sure how I missed it. Thanks for sharing this again!
God is good...thank you for always starting that way. God bless u for showing us how to be healthy.
Thank you Heidi! This video is great! Super informative!!! Thanks and God bless!!!
Thanks Heidi.. I make all my tinctures out of Everclear.. but the wine is what I make at home, so would be more self sustainable. I will be interested and see what the results are. As far as making the grape wine by fermentation for several day.. It is nice to be able to "capture" the grape skin tannin's on them. Wine like vinegar, can be made with anything.. beet is one of my favorite "earthy" flavor of wine, and is IMO yummy.. but also have the great benefits of the beet root itself.. I also put beets in my fire cider.
Isn't this all fun? and so beneficial. I will be staying tunes for the results. Thanks for sharing your process..
I made honey wine (mead) for years, but only tried making the grape wine for the first time this past year and that was more of an after thought later in the year using my homecanned grape juice. I am sure using fresh crushed grapes will be better as that is the more natural way anyway :)
@@RainCountryHomestead would u consider making a vid showing how u make your grape juice? love your vids!!👍👍👍
My very first youtube instructional video was how to make grapejuice (which is based off of very simple equipment that most of us already have on hand) so you can do a search or just go back to the very first page of my videos and find it :D
@@RainCountryHomestead thank you!!
Love...love...love the way you think!!! I haven't been able to make my tincture because the money for the alcohol is just not in our budget. We make our own wine so I am very interested in using that...last batch we made was 14% alcohol. Can't wait for the video on your antibacterial extract.🌻
I think using wine because it is sustainable is great. But there are two issues to using it over vodka or Everclear...
1. It won't have as long of shelf life. One needs at least 25% alcohol content for it to keep.
2. Different plants release their medicinal qualities better in a much higher alcohol concentration
The herbs used here were dry, meaning they do not have any water, meaning they could be extracted by a lower alcohol content. (Fresh herbs often need at least 40 proof (80% alcohol by volume) to make up for the water content in the flower/herb to keep it at at least a 25% alcohol by volume concentration of alcohol so it won't spoil.
So 14% alcohol could extract some constituents from the dry plant, but it would not have a long shelf life.
You have your numbers backwards, 80 proof is 40% alcohol.
New to your channel ordered books . Thank you you came up at the right time . I have been prepping and hubby and I have alot of serious medical problems.
There's a store?? To buy and research about this??? TY
Maybe I missed it but I only saw the 4 to 8 week timeframe and then about straining when it’s ready. I’ll try to find in other videos if you mention this. Your videos are awesome and I appreciate your reminder you’re not licensed to practice, and are just you and the rest of us trying to keep from the medical establishments treating us to death < those are my words from experience and from watching what they have done to other trusting souls. ♥️⭐️♥️
Not sure what you are asking but standard time I use for all extracts is at least two months but I usually leave them until I need them and then I strain so if they sit for 5 or 6 months or more, I am not concerned
Great job Heidi. Will be waiting for the antibiotic video
Amazing how empowering it is to be so self sufficient! I just saw a video that announced your first grandbaby coming! Congrats! I agree with you. When you take no pharmaceuticals you seem to not need them anyway. The more herbal remedies you use, you are actually getting nutritive value as well as medicinal value, but you do not NEED them as you did for the Rxs. They never seemed to work for me much anyway, so I do not miss pharma. Great videos. Keep it up!
Right! And thank you :D
You just gave me more inspiration for getting off my medicines! I recently used Sambucol Black Elderberry for colds/flu, as I never could take decongestants and would get on antibiotics to stop an oncoming sinus infection, and it cleared up in 3 days-I was amazed! That helped with my decision to get off all drugs! I had been way over medicated for pain-osteoarthritis in both knees and herniated disc’s; I had been sedentary and muscles atrophied. Couldn’t walk to mailbox! So I had to move in with my son and family and just packing & moving itself got me losing some weight which helped me walk, now I’m walking around the block with my granddaughter of age 2, lifting her up, getting on the ground and back up-a little slow, but doable! In pain 24/7, but bearable. I have been on 30 mg of pain meds for past 6 years and as of right now I’m down to 2.5 mg/day. I feel a little more sore, but I think that’s part of the detox. I started taking a generic super beets powder, I purposely don’t use a full scoop & it helps with my circulation so I’m not taking my nightly fluid pill and it boosts my immune system & has plenty of antioxidants! I used to take 3 anti anxiety pills a day, & now am down to a half a pill/day. I know lemon balm & peppermint tea will help with that! I really think the pain meds were making me gain weight, masking other things and didn’t really help much anyway! I couldn’t agree with you more, and I’m living proof you are right!
@@marcymoran6481 Great. Try Bio Freeze Professional strength (10mg menthol) spray for areas that hurt. In spite of being a spray on the outside , it really seemed to help the inside pain of joints etc. And no meds into the system! It is temporary , of course, but seemed to work well on my extremely painful knees inflammation and toe injury. I even used it on my herniated disc pain with pretty decent success. So glad for your success. Meds have so many side effects that we think are illness but are just the meds themselves. Enjoy that granddaughter!
Thank you for all your shared knowledge. None of my herb books show how to make extracts
Thank you Sharon and glad I can be of some help :)
Thank you for your demonstration on pain relief but also telling us what other herbs can be used also. So many herbalists don’t do this.
Thank you Carolyn, I truly hope people find it helpful. We have to do what we can with what we have :)
thanks, just starting to make my own remedies
Thank you so much for all the information you share, I realise this is an older video and that you may not see this but i want to thank you. I personally am under a fair amount of stress at the moment due to my mum not having long left due to cancer and being the eldest some are plotting and some leaning on me for support . So the cat nip and feverfew i think maybe ideal for my own sanity atm xx
Thankfully youtube gives us a special section where we can see all comments that come in order so it does not matter how old a video is! :D I am going to give you a link to some capsules I made, even if capsules are not an option, I do talk about other herbs that can be used for pain: ruclips.net/video/PzZkayfyyAg/видео.html
@@RainCountryHomestead Thank you very much i will look now xxx
Very informative. Really enjoy your videos.
Great video Heidi. I have been trying to find natural way to treat pain. I am tried of taking over the counter pain meds. They also haven't been working on the knee pain I have been having
Yvonne Johnson same here with knee pain. A year after meniscus tear surgery and it’s still swollen and not happy. Waking me up at night. I will definitely be using Heidi‘s tips on making pain remedies.
OTC drugs are really hard on your kidneys and liver, too.
Thank you. God bless.
I just found the Rosemary Gladstar's book @ Tractor Supply and bought it on sale! Score! lol
Great! She has some really good information in that book and nice photos
@@RainCountryHomestead So far I have only flipped through it, I haven't had the time to read it yet, but yes, the pictures are beautiful.
Just be warned that there are a couple things in there that hint at witchcraft but I am sure if you use your discernment, you will know what to avoid. I had only found them much later when reading through some of the recipes. I got the book more for the information on the herbs themselves, which is excellent
@@RainCountryHomestead Thank you, I will make a note of that when I read it. I am prone to write notes in my books, and had several herb books that totally related to spells. I was going to give them to Goodwill, but Mike brought up what I thought was a good point- "if you are Biblically against those books, why would you put them out there for someone else to stumble. I couldn't disagree. Blessings!
Thank you!
I love your intro. God is good and I love your videos.
Thank you!
Great information!!
I agree, I prefer dry herbs too
If your state allows it try a red crushed leaf kratom for pain. Magic !
I am a firm believer in kratom. Government keep trying to get rid of it...
Such great info, going to start growing my own herbs & make my on medicinal items
Thank you so much ❤
Hi Heidi, What a great video - and yes, those are my favorite books too!! Like others have already said - I am so appreciative of the wonderful knowledge you share!! And this is a great pain remedy to make. Thanks for sharing about the difference between a tincture and an extract. Love seeing the calendula vinegar. I am anxious to try that once I have calendula flowers. Love, Mary
Thank you Mary!
just starting with the cayenne pepper. I have it sitting for eight weeks and have some on the way in capsules. I am hoping they really work. Looking FW to trying some new mixtures. we use a valerian tinc. for sleep. And I need to find the anti inflammatory video after this. she has such informative videos. I am now also looking to purchase some feverfew thanks to her.
Thank you sooo much!!
if you extracting juice from grapes the best way is to cold press a simple screw press will work thanks for you sharing your knowledge appreciated
Hi Heidi, God is good all the time. Hallelujah.❤❤❤
Thank you so much,this is a dieing art
Nice video. Thankyou for the info
Very useful thank you. ❤
Being allergic to every antibiotic known to man (this is something that has only happened in the last 5 yrs), I woild love that recipe.
Have you ever tried making Rosemary Gladstar's FIRE CIDER. I have this on hand all year long. I am getting ready to make another quart of it for my winter stock. :0)
Yes, I keep fire cider on hand year round as well.
Oil of oregano is an antibiotic
Thank you for sharing. I would LOVE to get off my medicine. I will check out Amy's book.
GOD IS GOOD, ALL THE TIME!
I enjoyed and thank you.
Thank you- loved ❤️a video or yours yesterday, subbed, so got this one today. Just bought Rosemary Gladstar’s book per your recommendation. I have severe arthritis and take Wild Lettuce 🥬 as well as Stinging Nettle for a bit of relief. Looking forward to seeing & learning more from your videos.
God bless you & your family 🙏🏼❤️
Sorry, should have proofread ✍️ before sending! Loved your video- hopefully will be living some of it too lol.
how do you use the stinging nettle and how much do you take?
Love from a Texas mama 🏁
God bless you thank you
Awesome info new ideas i just need to have paper &pen when i watch your vids
Hi, I use Pure Mountain Botanicals …Nettle 500 mg and I’ll take one as needed, sometimes 2 in a day. Some days not. Also yes Wild Lettuce 🥬 leaf capsules. I go back and forth, pretty random dosing. Also use a comfrey aloe vera salve topically. Hope this helps 💕🙏🏼🌿
Thanks
Best to be free from those who decide we need processed chemicals. Independence in our health is so amazing!!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge on herbs. I just started using herbs but having trouble with parts. Could you explain parts to cups etc.? I already have both of the herbal books, they are great. Thank you.
Parts is ratio. The measurement is up to you so what that means if you choose to use 3/4 cup of glycerin then you would want 1/4 cup of water. That is 3 parts to 1 part or 3:1. If you want to make a larger batch you may use 3 cups glycerin and 1 cup water. The ratio stays the same 3 parts to 1 part.
I have spectacular headaches and migraines. I've found that if i put peppermint essential oil directly (and you can put peppermint directly onto skin - but not broken skin - for most people) onto where the pain is on my head/back of neck, it goes cool, then knocks me out to sleep, and the pain is gone. Does the same (without the sleep) for intestinal/bowel pain, and for swellings or pain in joints, or swollen muscles, sprains etc. Great also for those sores people get on lips and noses from a cold, etc. Also helps with faster healing and reduces the swelling - though something moisturising like beeswax to help with the dry, tight scab is a good idea. It can even prevent those sores if used early enough, being anti-viral and anti-inflammatory.
I have a separate video on natural pain relief where I mention many more herbs as well as essential oils ruclips.net/video/V5JOC-b74gs/видео.html
Thanks Heidi.
Wish I knew of a good herbal TIA prevention. Then I could get off nortriptyline.
Ty
I love your videos. Just discovered them today.
May I ask why you don't use Latuca Verosia ( wild lettuce ) in your pain extract ?
I see you already found my other video. I still have yet to try it, I have been happy with what I use here for standard headaches but for muscle pain, tension, and or to help with sleep I use valerian. This is why it is great there are so many options as we can find what works best for us
Thank you for your good information. Is there an alternative to commercial wine yeast?
Yes, I make wine all the time but have never used a wine or even bread yeast. This is what I use: ruclips.net/video/gY6MaXCLSC8/видео.html
And here is my wine making series (inducing how to make mead): ruclips.net/p/PLzVtTPDzFPKFtB45ulnLxFmo0mPdd23wq
I just ordered her Medicinal Herbs Book. I have both feverfew & catnip growing in my yard. do you hang as a bundle and then just use leaves and flowers?
Yes, you can do it that way. We don't hang herbs here, it simply takes too long in our humid summers and I have way too many herbs to dry so I run up to three dehydrators at a time to keep up on everything.
I ordered catnip seeds and freaking Customs seized and destroyed it...WTH? Where do you get seeds?
Hi Heidi...I have been watching you for a good while & find your videos to be quite informative.
There is just one thing that I want to point out here...when making any type of herbal concoction that you may want to give to a little one for any ailment, you should never give honey nor anything containing honey to a child under the age of 2yrs old! It can cause some pretty harmful side effects since their immune systems are still developing!
Please keep your videos coming!! I myself am self taught like you. I am 68yrs old & have been studying & using herbal remedies since I was about 25yrs old with great results. I believe that we are heading for a time that it will be essential that we know how to treat ourselves & our loved ones with natural ingredients! It’s important that folks like us share our knowledge & experience in living a more natural lifestyle!!🥰🌱☘️🌿🌼
Yes, I have known this for many years, even when I was a young mother of my own babies. However, the age is under one year, not two, though it is likely best to go ahead and wait until they are two. I never had intention of giving raw honey to an infant. When I say such things in videos, I am just thinking and planning ahead for that time. I would be nervous about giving any herbal extract to a child under the ages of 1 or 2 anyway.
Hi! Thank you so much for your channel! Question: Does it matter what kind of catnip you use? I know there are different varieties, but I don't know if they all have the basic properties. Thanks for any consideration!
I believe they all have similar benefits, catnip, catmint, et cetera
@@RainCountryHomestead thanks so much!
Another great video. Good idea to use what you grow. We have been blessed with many options. Google and Rosemary can help with choice of herbs that help with pain. I just made my pain and inflammation infused oil. Comfrey oil infusion and essential oils of peppermint, eucalyptus, lavender and Rosemary for a TOPICAL rub.
LARK'S GARDENS Funny story: I apprenticed with Rosemary a couple+ decades ago. She told us that when she first started “playing” with *100% pure essential oils* (FYI must say that on label or it’s a fragrance or synthetic oil...not good for medicines), her husband at the time was achy all over. She had him take a bath and added an entire half to one ounce - can’t recall - of straight peppermint oil to his bath. She left the room then suddenly heard him screaming, “What did you do to me?!?” She ran to the bathroom and there he was standing naked and beet red. She found out later that she should’ve only put about 10 drops into his bath water.
Btw, if you ever OD like this from essential oils (cayenne would be another), DON’T use water to wash off...that only drives the oil deeper into your skin. The best thing to do is pat olive oil on your skin; you could try honey too but oil is the best.
She had all the apprentices in stitches telling that story. Too funny.
As for overly spicy foods, chase with bread which helps tremendously.
Thought you’d get a chuckle from this too. Btw, her husband suffered no damage from her early days of starting out as an herbalist. 😂
Yes, I am laughing. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you, Heidi! I am wanting to learn how to make tinctures and extracts. I know zilch right now (and I am older person), but after the big C came out, I woke up to the pharmaceutical industry and am going to do my best to get my husband off meds. Thank you and may God bless you richly for teaching us. 🙏
I recommend you check out my most recent video on extracts: ruclips.net/video/c06SSMxSMMk/видео.html
@@RainCountryHomestead I will right now. Thank you!!!
Hi Heidi...I have been following you for some time now. I enjoy watching your videos & like how you make this easy for beginners to learn to make their own teas & herbal remedies. I am like you in that I am self taught. I am 68yrs old & began studying & making my own remedies when I was 25yrs.
There is just one suggestion that I want to mention here...when making any herbal tea, tincture, etc, it is essential to mention to folks that they should never give ANYTHING to a child less than one year old! It could lead to infant botulism due to contaminated soil or dust which can contaminate the honey! I feel that it’s just as important to safeguard ourselves when sharing these wonderful natural remedies as it is to disclose that you are not a doctor or a formally educated naturalist.
I look forward to seeing more of your videos.
I feel that we, as a society, are heading for a time when it will be essential that we know how to forage, harvest & use the many things that God has given us for our health!!🥰🎶🌱🌼
I should have mentioned that grade A natural maple syrup is an excellent alternative to honey for babies!!👍🤗
I am not sure what happened to my reply but yes, I absolutely know that you are not to give honey to infants and knew this when I was a young mother of my own babies. but if you look it up, it is actually under the age of one, not two. However, I never had intention of giving any kind of herbal extract to my grandchildren until they were older. Whenever you hear me mention grandbabies, it is because I am preparing for that day when not only do I have grandbabies but also when they are old enough. "Grandbabies" is just my general term for grandchildren
Heidi...I am sorry if you thought that I was implying that you didn’t know about this! My intent was to simply remind you that you might want to mention it for those folks who aren’t aware of this fact.🤷🏻♀️
Again, I apologize for the miscommunication...have a great day & God’s good grace & blessings!🥰🌺🙏
@@sylviavanhoy7504 You were totally fine and I understood that, but I did have another person that was basically yelling at me (typing in all caps) and that comment came in on another video about the same time yours did
I use the tincture in ointment that I apply to skin near in arthritic joints and use willow bark or leaf eucalyptus arnica
This is what I use for sore joints and muscles: ruclips.net/video/5yrNGcgeMDE/видео.html
and other times I use just plain black seed oil
The spices that can help with controlling pain do make a lot of sense to me because I use cayenne on everything but as of late it’s cayenne,Cajun and creole seasonings.
Grow Sorghum for sugar! 7 gallons sorghum cane juice boil down to 1 gallon syrup.
Grain Sorghum also produces grain. Black sorghum for darker bread!
Sorghum does not do well here, I tried it and was not impressed. I was going to try non GMO sugar beets but had to toss the seed when I was informed that they had been infected with GMO sugar beets.
What herbs are you using? This video is amazing. I would love to do the pain relief. I have CRPS/RSD the pain can really be bad. My sister has neuropathy as well.
I list off the herbs at timestamp 2:36
I saw a link of your Janome treadle sew machine on amazon. Do you have a video tutorial on that?
Yes I do: ruclips.net/video/3Lm7vXnLvbA/видео.html
Thanks so much for your videos! Do you recommend a particular vinegar or glycerin?
I personally use my own vinegar but I do not even make the pain remedy the same way anymore. Here is my most recent video recipe which also includes a link to the written recipe: ruclips.net/video/gm_UN7sTfqg/видео.html
Have you ever used crepe Myrtle fliers and leaves as a tea, extract or tincture? It has many medicinal qualities.
With the vi negars fermenting you don't have to keep them several feet apart so they don't pick up the microbes from each other like you do with other ferments such as kombucha, kefir, etc.? Thanks :)
I have never bothered to do that. Especially considering how many things I often have fermenting at a time, I would have to have them spread all over the house and that would be a huge pain
I just saw your video and it's amazing I want to congratulate you for your information and research, I was wondering if you can do the tincture or extract with MCT oil, by putting the herbs in a crockpot and the MCT oil and let them cook on low for 8 hrs?
When I am infusing oils with herbs, I prefer to do a long infusion (at least two months) at a warmer room temperature to preserve the benefits of the herbs. Getting the oil too hot can damage them and some oils can turn rancid as well.
I have both books also...
Can you purchase a wine from a store to use as a solvent? Recommendation would be appreciated. Thanks.

GREAT INFORMATION Heidi!!!! I have a question when you make the tincture with the wine. Do you strain it after the several week fermentation time? 😊 thank you. Can not wait to see the antibiotic video 🌻🐝🌻
I allow it to sit for a couple of months, then I strain out the herbs and bottle up. :)
Thank you have a blessed day 🌻🐝🌻
I'm looking through your videos on making capsules of herbs for headaches. Did it get removed?
Nope, its still up: ruclips.net/video/PzZkayfyyAg/видео.html
I just watched your cough, cold, and flu medicine video and you say to use marshmallow leaves and flowers. I only have root from Mountain Rose Herbs. Can I use that and what amount would you suggest?
You can use the root, I was using the leaves and flowers at that time because I had not yet dug up any roots. I would say try using the same amount of the root as the leaves and flowers I used. I do not typically use any exact measurements when making such things.

Do you have a written version of your recipes available?
Not currently but if time ever allows, I hope to put together a book
Now, I was just going to ask you what books on herbalism you'd recommend, and there your download shows up! Thanks!

Have you ever used wild lettuce for pain tincture?
How would you make butterscotch extract?
Have yet to use wild lettuce but here is a more in depth and recent video on pain relief: ruclips.net/video/V5JOC-b74gs/видео.html
You cannot extract butterscotch because it is a flavor created by cooking brown sugar, butter, and cream. Same with caramel.
Also wanted to grow herbs & hope you can guide me where to purchase seeds that are safe to buy from
I sell a lot of seeds on my etsy store here: Etsy.com/shop/raincountryhomestead
I noticed the "I love that you're my mom" thing and I said aww out loud lol
By the way you're my favourite channel, you are always what I put on TV when I eat or work out haha 😊
My oldest son got me that for my last birthday :D Thank you!
Am wondering what you think of wild lettuce as a tincture / pain killer? Thanks
