Until the birth of our modern medical age, most people relied on plant medicine to help them when they were experiencing illness. It was also understood that a healthy body could resist disease better and that nourishing the body would allow it to recover faster. Even with our modern understanding of how plant and mushroom chemistry specifically affects the human body, herbalism, as it is practiced today, is a bridge between ancient wisdom and our modern medical research, utilizing both to quickly bring a body back to balance when it encounters acute illness such as the cold and flu. Elderberry, Fire Cider, and functional mushrooms can help support the immune system, while herbs like wild cherry bark, thyme, mullein, willow, and oregano can help relieve cold and flu symptoms.
Building your home apothecary doesn’t need to be complicated or expensive. Join us as we explore common herbal remedies that support the immune system and help shorten the length of common cold and flu season health issues.
