I run a landscaping company and telling me I can do something with Japanese barberry is soooo cool thanks.
My family is Occonaluftee Indian… we called it bright eye or eye puccoon. When I was young.. we would find it in areas we called the shamans den where our Native people planted with other medicine plants like a medicine pharmacy. I would also find it around really old home structures where those who lived there probably planted it around for medicine when needed.
I have the notion. I could probably learn way more from you, than just about the land.. it would be nearly impossible. To not admire the depth of your knowledge.
I've had hyperlipidemia despite a gr8 metabolism & low body weight. I also have a chronic pseudamonas infection. I'm gonna start a berberine tincture for both these conditions.
I wish you would have told if there is a lookalike plant because we have some in our woods that looks almost identical but the flower part grows up on its own stem. Thanks for all the great information!
Hi Adam! I enjoy your videos so much & I've learned, learned, learned!!!! LOVE IT! OK, I also live in (Central) Pennsylvania and the ticks are ridiculous . . . I see you in the woods on these videos & wonder, what do you use for tick repellent?
*Ah, the mythical Goldenseal root, that used to be sold at High Times magazine and elsewhere, as a "miracle dirty urine cleaner to help you ace that upcoming drug test". I never used it, because during the time I was on 1 years probation, I chose a different miracle urine cleaning strategy. I quit using drugs! Then, during my 2nd term of urine tests, I finally quit drugs permanently. That was in late 2002. I would warn people to avoid these 'miracle drug use evidence erasers'. They probably won't work. *
I just spent most of the Spring hacking down as many of them as I ran across in the woods. They'll come back, though. When they do…I'll dig them up next time.
Would u recommend it for a person attempting to heal an respiratory infection when managing COPD with herbal supplements? I don't take pharmaceutical drugs I manage my COPD with natural remedies and herbal supplements along with diet. So, it's common that I will sometimes get infections, which hinders my breathing.
why don't the pictures with the flower of golden seal look like the plant you keep calling golden seal. They look very different to me. Thank you for all of your awesome videos btw

This guy is a goldmine of knowledge. I wish I could hire him to walk me through the forest and teach me on a regular basis.
Can you please go into more details on alcohol extraction techniques? Do you somehow remove the alcohol after?
Do you tincture the barberry root fresh or dry? What percentage alcohol?

I was half expecting you to grin and say excitedly "AND it's poisonous!" But pleasantly it's medicinal!
Ginseng

So… is it possible to raise goldenseal in a garden? or to propagate it from seeds or root divisions?

Do a video on magic mushrooms! there are some you can find on the east coast!
you should do a ginseng video. I mean is that not right up your alley. its medicinal and edible.
No wonder this guy sounds so healthy.
Wow I feel so old, I learned it in school as Hydrastis lutea
Looks alot like the American Mandrake.
We call them Maypops where I live; they suddenly pop out of the ground in May –
Thanks man ! If I could do life over again I would take your path.
