Re: More Dental Remedies from St. Hildegarde

[Guest guest]

Hi Don Quai,

I had to google grape vine herb and there are a few places that sell it. Mostly is Canada. www.tradetechnocrats.com is one such place. So you get the grape vine herb and burn it to ash basically. I used a big ceramic bowl and some 190 proof grain alcohol to do mine. I haven't hardly used it yet, so I can't say anything to results.

I do have one question that I am going to ask you as Hildegard is no longer with us. Grape vine herb ash!! is this the powder up stem, root, or leaves or what? I realize it is calcined or burnt to ash before use. Just curious about what she considered grape vine herb.-- Peace be with you, Jeff.Don "Quai" Eitner"Spirit sleeps in the mineral, breathes in the vegetable, dreams in the animal and wakes in man."Nearly all men die of their remedies, and not of their illnesses. ~Baptiste Molière, Le Malade ImaginaireThe obstacle is the path. ~Zen Proverb
