Purslane: The Omega-3 You Can Grow for Free!
https://thegrownetwork.com/purslane-omega-3/

Medicinal Herbs & Plants-Forage or Grow Your Own - Page 2 Bigstock-149045666   I was at the farmers market a few years ago checking out the seasonal greens. I noticed a lovely display of a succulent-type plant that looked exactly like a weed I’d been pulling out of my garden by the wheelbarrow loads for the last week.

It was selling for $6 a pound and people were lining up for it. Well, I bought a bag full and took it home to compare with the stuff that was swallowing my garden beds. Yep—exact match!

After that I did more research and discovered that the weed—oops, I mean “green”—was purslane. From that moment on, I stopped weeding it and started eating it—chopped in salads, sauteed with other greens, pureed in smoothies, mixed with bean dishes, and more.   ---CONTINUED---

$0 Alternatives to Pain Meds
https://www.askaprepper.com/0-alternatives-to-pain-meds/

Medicinal Herbs & Plants-Forage or Grow Your Own - Page 2 0-Alternatives-to-Pain-Meds-Cover3-890x395_c When you are in pain, you need fast relief. But pain medicines have side effects that you may want to avoid, and now we are possibly facing shortages of drugs. One solution that I have found is using herbs for pain relief.

Most people are unaware of the pain-relieving qualities of herbs that are readily available across the United States. You probably have most of these growing near you. ---CONTINUED---

Dave, there is a seller on Etsy by the name of Plant Guru that has an essential oil called Deep Muscle Synergy. Nice ingredient stack of warming oils for arthritic joints/sore muscles. Prices begin at $5.99. Highly recommend.

I have osteoarthritis in one knee and I use it at night to lessen morning stiffness when I wake up. When it really bothers me, oil first and Ben Gay on top. I have 'script ibuprofen, also take that at night to lessen stiffness.

Certainly not Chanel No 5 so you may need to apologize to Mrs. Dave Very Happy

15 Medicinal Herbs for Natural Pain Relief
https://urbansurvivalsite.com/medicinal-herbs-to-help-you-ease-pain-naturally/

Medicinal Herbs & Plants-Forage or Grow Your Own - Page 2 Ngcb11 Although I think it’s a good idea to stock up on OTC medicines, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t have any natural medicines as well. OTC medicine has an expiration date, but you can grow fresh medicinal herbs year after year, making them a great option for people who want to live off the grid or at least be a little more self-sufficient.

(SNIP) ... One type of medication that people will miss more than any other in a grid-down scenario is painkillers, so pain relief is going to be the main focus of this list. ---CONTINUED---
