I just turned 62 and for the first time in my life I got hit with poison ivy. My sisters and children always had a problem with this plant, but not me. Last year I was knee deep in it pulling it off the house and nothing. This year 1 small vine, wearing gloves, and yes I even came in and washed up immediately afterwards, within 3 days I noticed a weird dark spot on my arm and the itching started and well I am going crazy. I have been using acv, baking soda, bentonite clay even zinc oxide along with oatmeal sponge washes, nothing still new blisters showing up and the damn oozing. I am going outside right now to look for jewelweed. thank you so much for this video. by the way I do not trust the medical profession they have lied to us about everything.

@jeanettebutler9535 Год назад

I’m 62 and while pulling vines away from the house there was poison ivy there also. i’m on my third week and I’m finally starting to clear up! How long did it take for yours to clear?

@pattyboucetta1897 3 месяца назад

You’re 💯 about the medical community. Everything was a lie.

@jamesrose8660 8 лет назад

I grew up calling it Touch Me Not. You can rub the sap on the affected area and it will dry up the blisters in a day. That's from personal experience.

@deborahhernandez7785 4 года назад

The "exploding" seed pod is why it is called Touch-me-not, by some. My mother taught me to recognize it and as a child, I had much fun popping the seed pods!

@pearlsandsocks5605 8 лет назад

I need to brag on my gardening skills for a minute. I am highly allergic to that stuff. I have been pulling that stuff up out of my yard for years. This year, while gardening, I threatened to enter it into the county fair as it was looking nice in my yard. Turns out I've been growing and pulling RASPBERRY shoots. Now that I let it go I have some cute little raspberries growing. Thank you for taking the time to share your life and knowledge with us.

I took an herb class in 2006 and was introduced to jewel weed for the first time. According to my instructor, drinking jewel weed tea as a preventative from poison ivy used to be quite common. A few people didn't react well and now, in WV at least, it's only recommended for topical use.

@elizabethclaiborne6461 4 года назад

The traditional use is strictly topical. This guy is literally pushing magic potions. The science attributes the rash drying properties to Saponins, which require topical application. It’s used for all sorts of rashes. Tea likely came from tinctures, which were literally a shot of high proof alcohol through the day. Medicinal buzz, not medicine. The old days were rough.

@terrymouse77 6 лет назад

I used to get Poison Ivy all the time, until my aunt made a tea from Jewelweed for me. To this day (50 yrs) I yank it from my yard and I never get a rash.

@roho1967 8 лет назад

Hey Zach, I was told a secret a few years ago, about making tinctures. You should always start a tincture at the New Moon, and strain it during the Full Moon. Just as the moon pulls the tides, it also pulls the good stuff out of the plant, to get a better tincture.

@Anamericanhomestead 8 лет назад

Interesting...could be something to that. I'll wait till just after the full moon to strain it.

@elizabethclaiborne6461 4 года назад

No. The moon controls tides. It has nothing to do with ethyl alcohol dissolving fat based chemicals. Science makes fantastic tinctures. Ever taste vanilla extract? Made with zero attempts at sympathetic magic. This is not the Middle Ages.

I had heard some time ago that dockweed which grows near stinging nettle will sop the pain and rash. I just heard that jewelweed does the same -- good for both and perhaps more!

@SuperParksFamily 8 лет назад

Great to know, thanks for sharing! I wanted to mention that Stinging Nettle is your friend! Don't let it become a nemesis! It's natures multi-vitamin, for real! If you blanch the leaves it will remove the sting. If you like the taste you can use the leaves as a salad base or make a tea, or even better, an infusion. It can be tinctured too, but we love a good cold infusion 'round here. The seeds and root are also beneficial - we're talking overall health promoters. I wouldn't recommend you shake hands with it, but do let it into your friendship circle ;-)

@granmabern5283 4 года назад

Will Parks My friend had excéda over her entire body for years, even in her eyes and ears. She drank nettle tea, by the quart, for a week and her skin was fresh and clear. From time to time she would get a scaly patch, drinks a couple of cups and be clear again. Me, I tried it for allergies, but there was too much soluble iron in it, I have a genetic thing where I can’t deal with iron well, but it just made me tired. So, I drank dandelion tea and all allergies went away. Once a year cure.

@theIAMofME 8 лет назад

GREAT VIDEO! In a rural area...the yard is FULL OF IT here. I never had it until 3 years ago. MERCY! That is some wicked stuff. I have had it 3 times this year. I must go look around for this plant!! Thank you!! This lady at the farmer's market saw me with it earlier this year and told me to try this when I KNEW I was going to be around it. She said to rub myself down with coconut oil (any oil might work I would think) on all exposed skin. It keeps the poison ivy oil (oak, sumac, whatever) from adhering to the skin. Once poison ivy oils are on your skin it doesn't just wash off with soap and water. You have to SCRUB it like you have grease on you or something that you are trying to get off. This is why people get it even after washing up. You have to scrub! I sure am going to look for this plant!!! So appreciate the info!!

@tkramar6372 8 лет назад

Good tips. I use hand cleaner like Goop that's made to break down oil. Works great if you can get to it quickly. If the poison ivy oil has time to soak into your skin there's no way to remove it. I also am going to look for this plant.

@josephbenge8707 3 года назад

@@tkramar6372 Use sunscreen lotion, it will fill the pores of your skin and make the poison ivy oils come off easier. Also stays on longer when sweating a lot. Plus since you are slathered in it you wont forget to wash it all off.

Dude, you don’t know how to do the poison ivy scrub? Works every time. Within four hours of being exposed, remove all clothing and put in washing machine, ready to wash in hottest water possible after your scrub. Then with two wash cloths, and hot water in a shower, scrub your entire body vigorously with soap and one cloth. Then rinse. Repeat the scrub with the second washcloth. The friction of the cloth, along w the soap and water, gets rid of the oil. Then wash that load of dirty, exposed clothes. Also, wipe your tools, boots and gloves down with alcohol. Promise you won’t get but a dot or two anytime your exposed if you get it at all. You’re welcome.
