Buckwheat is rich in bioflavonoids: rutin. What buckwheat will do for you is to strengthen your absorption of Vitamin C, and build up weak, failing capillaries and blood vessels in the body. It is especially beneficial in childbirth, heart attack prone, and the elderly. |

 Herbs are not a cure-all, but they strengthen the natural defenses and resources of the body to heal itself-that is if you have not debilitated the body beyond hope. Walking exercise, clean water and wholesome foods can add years of productive enjoyment to your lives. Healing of the body is beyond just the immune response which is in the dissenting opinion at the end of this article (by my daughter). Herbals nurture and aid in healing-much of which has not been researched. |

 My late mother told me about the 1918 Spanish Flu. “You milked the cows in the morning and you were dead that afternoon.” Millions died from this virus, the few living survivors, as well as deceased, harbor the strains of this deadly virus for researchers to isolate and learn from.

 Diane is not keen on my laissez faire wild herb gardening techniques. " I know where everything is and they grow best where they want to," I said.
"I want a managed herbal garden," she said. "Humph! Some gardener." So now on my endless list of Honey Do's for next spring will be an antique herbal garden for her, and if you do not say anything I can use it as a managed seed repository. |

Welcome to Back2theLand
Thank you for visiting my new site. This year we will focus on food production-gardening articles, starting with the assumption that many of our new readers are in suburbia with limited space, poor soil, water restrictions, roaming pets and " I don't know how to get started".
