Now I gotta find my ping list, probably tomorrow. I am sure many will be interested in what you did to improve your health.
I have a lot of info I have collected but neglected posting much of anything to this thread. Tomorrow I start a new leaf. One of the interesting things about herbs is that many or most of them have multiple uses. Herbs that are unfamiliar can be found on my favorite herb sources that I can post again if anyone wants. I will try to add Latin names next time. Many of the herbs below have other great benefits.
