Preface: I didn't believe in it. I thought I was being scientific and basing my opinion on well researched medical facts. I was wrong.
Starting with the forced vaccination campaigns is when I started to distrust the medical industry. I was ignorant about herbal medicine and I thought it was a bunch of ineffective wives tails and confirmation bias. I thought "Of course you got better, you just had to wait, but now you think your cream healed you because you put it on and didn't die while you healed like normal"
Holy hell was I wrong.
So it turns out that your doctor is still pretty damn good resource, however, like most people, he's also completely ignorant about pharmacy.
Ever hear of these plants?:
- Comfrey, also known as knit-bone
- Horsetail
- Yarrow
- Plantain
- St. John's Wort
- Lungwort
- Stinging Nettle
- thistle
I heard the names of some, I even read about some, but fuck me this stuff belongs in every single yard in existence.
Comfrey had been used as medicine for over 2000 years. Know what it does? The Roman army certainly did.
So it turns out that it's called knit-bone for a reason. It contains allantoin and rosmarinic acid. It's the most powerful healing thing I have ever read about in my entire life. 2000 years of observational evidence backed by dozens of of double blind, multicenter, randomised control trials.

Literally the gold standard of science. Grow this fucking plant. The FDA desperately doesn't want you to have it despite the medical evidence and had been trying to scare people away from using it because if you abuse it you could hurt your liver.... Sounds like most medicines to me.
Horsetail is nutritious and will stop you from bleeding out in an emergency.
Pharmaceutical grade bleed stop, like what you get for your dog to stop their mail bleeding if you accidentally cut into the quick, is made out of yarrow. It's a traditional remedy, dried and powdered yarrow will stop the bleeding and help block infection because it's also antibacterial. WTF, why isn't it in the camping section at Wal-mart?
Plantain is anti-bacterial, anti-septic and anti-fungal. It's so effective you don't need it to be sterile to work and keep your wound clean. You can chew the stuff into a poultice to put on your wound from your dirty ass mouth and it still works.
St. John's Wort will relieve anxiety, depression, insomnia and psychosis. It's undisputed and medically accepted. It just has a lot of drug interactions.
Lungwort is great medicine when you are sick and congested. As the name suggests, it helps your breathing and lungs. My two daughters were sick, my wife decided to test it on them. It worked just like our herbal medicine books said it would.
Singing nettle is extremely nutritious and will help you get a good night's sleep for real if you make a tea with the fresh stuff. Just be prepared to either have extremely vivid dreams and/or lucid dreams.
Thistle: you're not ready to hear this lol. You should grow Thistles on purpose in your own yard...on purpose, like intentionally, without planning on getting rid of it....for real...
There are a lot of things that we eat and a lot of waste metabolites that are fat soluble. Or modern life is placed with herbacides and pesticides as well, some of those are also fat soluble. Lots of us have abused our livers as well.
Guess what? Thistle forces that shit out of your fat and into your blood, simulated your liver, improves liver function and helps you get all that shit out.
Are you unallergic to certain foods, but "break out" when you eat them or get joint issues? That's because your liver sucks. Go eat some thistle, especially the roots. The stalk can be cleaned up with a vegetable peeler, its like celery, the roots are where most of the good stuff is though.
There's more plants and more proven effects of them.
Most of them you were misguided to think of as weeds or poison.
God is trying to take care of us.
First rate post OP, thank you!
In addition to herbal preps, homeopathy and preparations like colloidal silver, iodine etc, there is Frequency medicine (aka form of energy medicine). I became fascinated after reading Carolyn McMakin's book on Frequency Specific Microcurrent. Am currently using it to speed healing from a knee replacement, as well as various supplements. Have been told, less than 2 weeks out, that I am already a couple of weeks further healed than most. It wasn't until about a decade my knee accident that first tore everything up that I began my adventure with "alternative" medicine(in quotes because all listed in this post are truly original medicine).
The phrase "doctor heal thyself" became a living phrase for me and my family has been the beneficiary of my journey.
If you research you will find that ALL the medicines (homeopathies, herbs and essential oils) are all vibrational healing or "energy" medicine. How does an oil, herb or homeopathic know where to go to provide the healing? They are attracted to various organs, cells, or systems through the attraction of the frequency or vibration. Tesla said if you understand frequency, energy and vibration you will understand the universe and that truly is the key to all healing. Even rocks have energy, vibration and frequency which is how so many of our inorganic rocks can have healing properties. It really is quite fascinating how the creative power of God works. I am constantly amazed at how interconnected we all are in God's creation. Hope you continue to heal quickly!
