The juice from Goats Beard is good for constipation. It also helps with gall bladder function.

You can take two handfulls of the leaves, stalks, flowers and roots and clean them with cold water. Boil this in water for about 10 minutes and strain. Drink this with a little honey and it is good for bladder and kidney infections. 

You can also use this tea for cuts, scrapes, wounds to relieve pain.

Do only the roots as stated above and make a tea to drink for heartburn. This tea can also be used for kidney stones.

 Peel the roots, boil them and saute with onions. This is good for colds. 

Mullein:

The best use I have found for this herb, and there are many….
If you have a stomach virus….

Get a handful of flowers from mullein and STEEP them in 2 cups of hot water, strain this and drink one entire cup. This will almost immediately ease stomach cramps.

These flowers make a good sedative for the nervous system and also will ease pain.

Breathe in the vapors of tea made with fresh leaves for congestion.

CATNIP:

Tea dosages:

Fever: One cup of strong tea made by steeping dried leaves for 20 minutes in hot water

Pain: Steep green leaves in hot water 7-12 minutes

Stomach Cramps: double the dose of the herb in one cup of water and simmer, not steep, for 15 minutes

Relaxation: Use the small, tiny leaves just below the flower head, right before it flowers. Dry them in a cool, dry place then steep the leaves for 20 minutes.

Poison Ivy or skin rashes: Boil the twigs from a Black Birch Tree. Make a strong tea out of it and then let it cool. Apply it to the affected area, repeating several times after it dries. The young leaves used fresh and the bark of the twigs are the main medicinal parts of a black birch. Drying the leaves for later use does not work unfortunately. I have only known this tree to work when the parts are used fresh.

Sedative: Make a strong tea from the leaves and twigs and drink when stressed and needing sleep. It induces a good night’s sleep and calms the nerves.

Pain: Boil the bark and twigs to release the oil and apply this to sore muscles and strains to relieve pain.

Partridgeberry:

One of my favorite. I use to eat these in my oatmeal when on lengthy backpacking trips. They kind of taste like apples…..tiny apples.
*Dried or fresh leaf or even tea made from the berries is good for late, irregular or painful periods.

Rattlesnake Plantain:

Make a tea with the leaves and mix with whiskey for colds and toothaches
*If you have a burn type accident when hiking, chew some of the leaves and place it on the burn, it eases the pain

Honey kills bacteria. It disinfects wounds and sores. Honey can reduce ones perception of pain. It helps with asthma, sore throats, calms nerves, induces sleep and relieves diarrhea.

Good for the lungs as an expectorant, bronchitis, emphysema, decongestant, dissolves blood clots, kills pain, induces euphoria.

Ten to twenty drops of red hot chili pepper sauce in 1 glass of water a day will help with all of the above and aid in curing colds.

Two teaspoons of jajapeno pepper can help the blood clot dissolvign mechanism in out body. Chili peppers can prevent heart disease and stroke.
