Good Saturday Morning, hope your week end is a good one... I know we are under pressure but life is going on so we must also.. Spring is coming and getting out for walks and fresh air is still great. Its a little windy but that's Spring.. I could not sleep well this morning so got myself up and did some research and writing. Its still amazes me the beautiful Herbs gardens the Creator has given us, sharing one with you today.
Wild Sarsaparilla
This plant has several medicinal uses. The Micmac boiled the root in water until it was soft and applied it
as a poultice to treat wounds. A woman at Shubenacadie told me the root was effective in treating. She explained
it should be dried, powdered, and
steeped in water as a herbal tea. The
root has a sweet spicy taste and a
pleasant smell, and I suspect a
certain amount of food value. This
is also true for the berries, although
they are not very palatable. wild sarsaparilla is an amazing medicinal herb.
Wild sarsaparilla is a perennial flowering plant that comes from northern and eastern North America. This plant can easily be found growing on creeping underground stems in the woods.
Native Americans also used to eat wild sarsaparilla roots as emergency food, especially during wartime. This is because these roots are a wonderful source of energy.
Sarsaparilla is used for treating psoriasis and other skin diseases, rheumatoid arthritis and kidney disease; for increasing urination to reduce fluid retention; and for increasing sweating. Sarsaparilla is also used along with conventional drugs for treating leprosy and for syphilis.
Wild sarsaparilla has a sweet spicy taste and a nice aromatic fragrant. The leaves, fruits, and roots of this plant are edible, but the roots are by far the most commonly used one. ... Lastly, ripe the fruits can be used to make wine and jelly. My Mother was great in harvesting and using wild herbs. Love you all, I pray and smudge for you all. have a Blessed Week end.
