I have no idea how to go about learning them, because an herbalist I know taught me all the plants I can identify. What do you suggest? Also, I know you've posted...

katelynninja asked: Hello again, dear friend! Dried herbs for cooking would suit if they would be all that we have? My family and I have just moved cross-country, and I haven't been able to get rosemary clippings from my uncle. I was considering a tea, possibly.

Anonymous asked: Unfortunately, I have inherited my mother's crappy immune system. To simply put it: I have caught every single bug floating around campus this semester, thus I have been sick about five times now. I take acai supplements, have no built up tolerance to medicine (children's medicine can knock me out and I am a 23 year old. ). Doctors don't seem to care, so I was wondering about what...

cilia asked: I am 4 days into a pretty awful urinary tract infection. I have been drinking lots of cranberry juice and water and taking Azo for pain relief. It has only gotten worse.
