Thank you for this. I grow milkweed for the monarch butterflies but didn't know it was good as medicine. You are the greatest

@HomeGrownHerbalist 5 лет назад

Try eating the insides of the seed pods while the innards are still milky. Few things are tastier. :0)

Yes I've left milk weed in my front garden for that. It's taking over a bit too much. It's weird I didn't try to start growing it.

@c.taylor4598 4 года назад

I'm in indiana, and our milkweeds don't look like that. Sweet smelling, globe-shaped flowers, followed by green, parakeet-looking pods. I planted them for monarchs.

@HomeGrownHerbalist 4 года назад

There are a lot of plants in the genus that are very different. I usually use Asclepias speciosa.

I am in your school and I love watching your videos!

I grow common milkweed to attract and promote the monarch butterflies. The caterpillar eat the leaves but not the sap from the stalk. It's a huge part of my butterfly garden,

@HomeGrownHerbalist 2 года назад

Yup. Monarchs are smart. The leaves are tasty. I like them too. :0) Doc Jones www.homegrownherbalist.net/about-the-school

Hey Doc what do you recommend for someone having gallbladder problems I really enjoy all of your videos appreciate the time you spend thanks

@HomeGrownHerbalist 4 года назад

Milkweed root is good for attacks. This works well for gallstones in some folks: www.homegrownherbalist.net/products/gall-bladder?_pos=1&_sid=bfd1dc88f&_ss=r

Thank you for telling us about the latex in the shoots for getting rid of warts. I just found out about this and was looking for more confirmation.

@danielvogt341 20 дней назад

Thank you for that! Where I live there is the Asclepias fruticosa. Has it got the same medicinal properties?

@muttsmunchies Год назад

We call Sow Thistle milk weed. I thought it was the same but .... nope lol

Hey Doc! If you are allergic to latex should you NOT use any part of latex plants? I have this plant ALL over my property. And I have an allergy from my pharmacy days that at this point is mild (just causes an itchy rash). Thanks!

@HomeGrownHerbalist 3 года назад

I'd be very careful with anything that contains latex Jennie. Some foods and herbs can cause cross-reactions with latex allergy folks.

@krachel99 Год назад

You talk about the root being good for kidney stones and other kidney ailments and conditions, and when to harvest the root, but then you sorta just drop the subject and move on. Did I miss something, like what exactly to do with the root to get it to help my kidneys? Do I boil it to make a tea? Use it fresh or dry it out? Gnaw on it raw after washing? I apologize if I’m missing something, but what exactly do I do with the root to make it useful, and is the root the only part of the plant containing potential medicinal benefits? Again, I apologize in advance for my confusion

@here2homesteading 5 лет назад

Would any variety of milkweed serve the purposes you described herein?

@LezaRay 5 лет назад

I'll add to the question: including Butterfly Weed, aka Orange Glory? I'm guessing they all are, but I won't be giving up any of mine since we raise butterflies, tons being Monarchs, and Milkweed runs out pretty quickly with so many little mouths to feed... . 😏

@LezaRay 5 лет назад

Tinctures with 100% Vodka? Teas? Powders?

@HomeGrownHerbalist 5 лет назад

@@LezaRay It's a big genus, I'd stick with true milkweed as I don't have any experience with the others.

@HomeGrownHerbalist 5 лет назад

@@LezaRay 80 or 100 proof vodka would be fine. Or make a tea or throw the powdered herb in a little juice or some such.

@jenniexfuller Год назад

If I have a latex allergy, am I likely to have a reaction to latex plants also? Percent chance of cross reactivity?

@MaryjByers Год назад

If someone is allergic to latex is this safe for them??

@jenniexfuller 3 года назад

Latex allergy means you should avoid this plant? Any others?

@HomeGrownHerbalist 3 года назад

Dandelion, prickly lettuce....anybody with white, sticky sap should be a red flag.

@kleineroteHex 2 года назад

@@HomeGrownHerbalist I get no audio well reading comets a while. I have a latex allergy but dandelion sap is no problem! Had milkweed sap on me as well and no reaction.

@melissaboel2420 5 лет назад

You briefly mention milkweed for gallbladder. How would you use it? In a tea maybe? How often? Just for the attacks or hopefully more as a way to heal the gallbladder and prevent future attacks?

@HomeGrownHerbalist 5 лет назад

It would be useful both for attacks and as a general tonic for the bile system. For stones, this one is worth a look. www.homegrownherbalist.net/products/gall-bladder?_pos=1&_sid=1c95a4049&_ss=r Milkweed dose would be a teaspoon or two times daily of the dry, powdered herb. You can make a tea or just throw it in a little juice or a smoothie. Doesn't matter much how you get it into your body. :0)
