stinging nettles.

Any one still use them? Natural antbiotic. Contain folic acid. Boil to make a tea.

and high in iron, i read somewhere a bloke boils them up but best in the spring when they sting like hell...
he adds cider vinager and bottles it to use throughout the season...

That is a good idea. Kelp is good as is algea. Spiruluna is the best but too bloody expensive!

when I was a kid, a local family would send out there 3 children onto the fields / woodland to collect nettles, the dad would make a tea out of them.......seen one of them last year, not seen him for many years, he had a thick head of black hair, maybe the nettle tea ? I don't know.......

What didn't they like their kids dave collecting nettles

Ha ha, I love using natural stuff but I’m always worried that the contents in the bottle will go off and I will do more harm than good.

poor family mark, the dad might have had this when he was a kid also.....
