Y’all, I finally made it off my hill! The stores have been restocked with Elderberry Syrup and the Japanese Knotweed is finally finished and also in stores! The Olive Branch Market & Globe Farm Store

Our new family protocol for any and all illness with cough this year:

Elderberry (winter edition) - a teaspoon a day; increase to a tablespoon with exposure to illness and a tablespoon 3x a day with active illness.

Bidens - antibiotic herb shown in studies to be effective against gram negative bacteria (pertussis that causes whooping cough is gram negative). We hit it hard the first day with a dropperful every two hours. Then 3 x a day until symptoms are gone. Also protects lung cilia

Japanese Knotweed - stops the inflammation from dying bacteria and also very antiviral. 3x daily with active illness.

Mullein - Keeps the lung cilia swept clean.

Pokeroot drops - Keeps lymph healthy to remove toxins from lungs.

Wild Cherry Syrup - as needed for cough.

I’ve been working on this fresh Japanese Knotweed tincture for hours😅. Of all the herbs, Japanese Knotweed is the most tedious to process, but it’s so worth it! Here are a few of its uses backed up by scientific studies:

•It’s very antiviral, and specific against coronaviruses. Shown in studies to inhibit cytokine storms.

•Modulates the immune system, making it useful for those with autoimmune disorders, allergies and inflamed anything.

•Contains a very high resveratrol content, making it very heart healthy and can be used as a daily tonic herb for heart health.

•Recommended by herbalist Stephen Buhner and several others in Lyme’s Disease protocols. This is supported by studies.

•Studies suggest Japanese Knotweed may be useful against dementia and Alzheimer’s.

Our Japanese Knotweed is very potent because we harvest it when the above ground part has died back (so that the plants energy is all in its roots) then we take off the root bark and tincture it in small batches rather than chipping the whole root. The medicinal part is in the inner bark of the root. The heartwood underneath is large but not useful. I can’t see anyway this could be accomplished by machine since these roots are so knarled and twisted unless they are chipping the entire root rather than just the root bark. (Somebody correct me if I’m wrong.)

Regardless, this tincture is already super dark and potent as you can see. It will sit and brew for six weeks before I press and strain it and put it in the stores. Since knotweed is so difficult to process, supplies are limited so watch for the announcement that this has hit the store shelves. I’ll be excited when it is finished. 😀

With all the experts warning that Influenza is expected to be widespread this year, I think it’s a great time to remind you to be sure and take your Elderberry Syrup before you gather with family and friends this Christmas. Not only does Elderberry boost your immune system but it is also specific against Influenza viruses.

Once a virus enters your body it has to attach to your healthy cells to replicate and become numerous enough to make you sick. Elderberry blocks viruses from attaching to your healthy cells, so all your body has to fight off is that initial viral load you got when your cousin sneezed on you.

There are other things you can do. Wash your hands frequently. Gargle salt water and clean your nose out with a cotton swab dipped in salt water after every gathering. Take your Japanese Knotweed, Bidens, Honeysuckle and other antivirals after being in crowds.

The good Lord can and does protect us from illness but He also gives us knowledge for a reason and He did provide the herbs to enhance and protect our health.

I hope you all will have a very blessed and healthy holiday❤️

I just want to spotlight one of the newer herbs I have available to sell (although not new to my family. We’ve loved it for years) and it is the Wild Black Cherry Syrup.

When people think of this herb they think of cough syrup and it truly is an effective natural cough syrup with that lovely classic wild black cherry flavor that all the modern cough syrups try to copy.

But that is not why I’m so fond of Wild Black Cherry Syrup. I consider this herb a “must have” in my medicine cabinet because it is so effective in opening up sinuses and breathing passages. Plus it is mildly expectorant and mildly sedative, which means a beautiful night’s sleep because you can breathe and relax so well.

The Cherokee historically used Wild Black Cherry as a heart tonic. Because it is in the rose family, it is very heart healthy and can be taken nightly as a cardiac tonic.

I’ll be honest with you. This is one of the more difficult herbs to process. It took me hours to process the batch that I just made. That is why it’s not always in the stores. So get it now while it is available. Also it can only be processed part of the year to be at its top strength. And it should be processed fresh to get the full benefit.

I have several bottles of the Wild Black Cherry Syrup on the shelf at The Olive Branch Market. I hope you will check it out!
