Guest guest Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 Thanks Suzanne, I'll make sure I keep it in a pot! Here's her quote: "I have Heal all and Clary sage............" Guess I'll have to ask what the other plant actually is. Shari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 Shari, There is a "Self Heal" Plant... This could be what she is talking about... Here is what I have on that. Self-Heal is still in use in modern herbal treatment as a useful astringent for inward or outward use. An infusion of the herb, made from 1 OZ. to a pint of boiling water, and taken in doses of a wineglassful, is considered a general strengthener. Sweetened with honey, it is good for a sore and relaxed throat or ulcerated mouth, for both of which purposes it also makes a good gargle. For internal bleeding and for piles, the infusion is also used as an injection. Culpepper, explaining the name 'Self-Heal whereby when you are hurt, you may heal yourself,' tells us that: 'it is an especial herb for inward or outward wounds. Take it inwardly in syrups for inward wounds, outwardly in unguents and plasters for outward. As Self-Heal is like Bugle in form, so also in the qualities and virtues, serving for all purposes, whereunto Bugle is applied with good success either inwardly or outwardly, for inward wounds or ulcers in the body, for bruises or falls and hurts. If it be combined with Bugle, Sanicle and other like wound herbs, it will be more effectual to wash and inject into ulcers in the parts outwardly.... It is an especial remedy for all green wounds to close the lips of them and to keep the place from further inconveniences. The juice used with oil of roses to annoint the temples and forehead is very effectual to remove the headache, and the same mixed with honey of roses cleaneth and healeth ulcers in the mouth and throat.'

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 She might be talking about valerian. It’s also called All-Heal. Look here: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/natural/patient-valerian.html Sharyn From: health [mailto:health ] On Behalf Of Suzanne There is a " Self Heal " Plant... This could be what she is talking about... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 So it sounds like it would work on the daughter's incisions from her appendectomy? They don't use stitches but say to put cocoa butter on them. I'm thinking a couple of crushed up leaves of this might work. Thanks Suzanne. These are new plants for me as is making any tinctures, salves, etc... I usually only grow the herbs I can eat! Shari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 Found out it is not Valerian she was talking about. It is the other one that Suzanne was mentioning. I'll stick it in a pot and see what grows. Shari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
