Nourishing and curative herbs that fill you with energy
The following herbs are nutritious as well as curative and, as concentrated food sources, they are substitutes for fruits, vegetables, cereals, nuts, and spores.
- Clover , Medicago sativa, alfalfa (Leguminosae) (Arabic "father of food"). It contains proteins, chlorophyll, vitamins A, B12, K, C, P, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, and potassium. The underground root of the alfalfa can be extended several meters below the surface of the soil, gathering many minerals from the earth's thorns. Thejhjh alfalfa is used as a food or supplement. It contains essential hormones and enzymes that are necessary to keep the pituitary gland and adrenal glands functioning well.
- Aspen, Fucus vesiculosus, Kelp or Dulse (Fucaceae). Seaweed dried and grated powders or grains. These plants originate from the ocean (native to the North Atlantic and Western Mediterranean shores). They also contain essential protein, vitamins (including B12), minerals, plus about 35 trace elements that the body needs to function well. Organic iodine supplied by the seaweed will rebuild and take care of the thyroid gland. Kelp algae have a salty flavor due to their high potassium content so that they could comlement other foods as an excellent salt substitute without its adverse effects.
- Licorice, smoothie, resurfacing, agarcorza (Girona) - Glycyrrhiza Glabra, Liquorice (Leguminosae). Powder of licorice root. Adrenal glands need a "force" every 5 hours to maintain body energy. If a meal or other food is not available, the licorice root will feed the adrenal glands. Great Alexander's armies transported licorice roots to the great marches of their expedition to get energy, strength, and endurance. A much superior energy toner, from today's bar, sugar, chocolate, candy given to the poor GI, by the army. The licorice also stops hunger and thirst.
- Inherent medicinal, stalk, Symphytum officinale, comfrey (Boraginaceae). Root powder or inherent leaves. This herb is nutritious as well as medicinal. The root powder and the inherent leaves is an insuperable food. The enzyme contains high amounts of protein as well as calcium. The root or sheets can be made a tea or added to green juices. Several folks know we have used root powder as a thickening agent in soups when they boil: much more valuable than corn flour or starch.
- Althaia or pharmaceutical - Althaea Officinalis, Marshmallow (Malvaceae). The root of a watermill. This is an invaluable herb that can also be used as herbal food, as well as a soothing bath for the healing of the worst open wounds, especially the gangrene. Rosemary root powder can be reconstituted in its natural state and used as a drink (a tea or thicker if you want) that can keep someone away from starvation. It is full of plant proteins. It also strengthens the flow of mother's milk.
