We love our plants and herbs and most of the time they have names and we pray over them that they supply us with our needs.
So get your chair and your tea and lets talk about some of the most important herbs or plants that I use for medicinal purposes.
If you follow our TikTok page: @thecrazyherblady25, you can also find some videos of some of the plants. But here are some of our favorites and most useful.
*Aloe Vera: Yep, the same kind you use for burns, or after sun care. But did you know that it is also used to treat Heartburn, IBS, lower blood sugar in diabetics, relieves constipation, as well as treats skin wounds, burns, and eczema? It does and it can be used internally and externally!!!
* Calendula: The cutest little orange flower. I use this internally and externally as well. I make salve with it, chapstick and fever blister medication. But it has so many medicinal uses such as, Skin diseases, wounds, cuts, rashes, burns, cold sores, herpes, chicken pox, antiaging, soothes muscle spasms, ulcers, hemorrhoids, stomach and intestinal upset, immune system booster, lymphatic system booster, menstration, PMS, Oral health, inhibits Cancer, liver and gallbladder function, and is used as a whold body detoxifier.
*Chamomile: Yep the same Chamomile that you drink in your tea for relaxation, or put in the kids bath for bedtime. But Chamomile is also used for digestive issues, colic, sore muscles, insomnia, treats Pinkeye, Asthma, Whooping cough, congestion, allergies and eczema.
