Herbal Hour: Natural Health Podcast
Health & Fitness
In this week's Story Hour I share an excerpt from The Book of Herbal Wisdom written by one of my favorite herbalists, Matthew Wood, about the rich history regarding the Elder Tree. Many know of Elderberries, which come from this tree, but did you know there is a long tradition of use of the leaves and bark of the great elder?
In this episode, I share mythological stories about how the Elder Tree is associated with the underworld, how it was used during plagues, and the plethora of traditional medicinal uses of all parts of Elder: the elderberries, elder leaves and the bark. This is a truly remarkable plant with much potential health benefits that go way beyond simply supporting the immune system.
