crazy horse, 6 Plants Native Americans Use To Cure Everything -
true or false? -






The Cherokee is a Native American tribe that is indigenous to the
Southeastern United States.
They believe that the Creator has given them a gift of understanding and
preserving medicinal herbs.
The Cherokee trust the healing and preventative properties of nature’s
pharmacy.
Because many plants become scarce throughout history, the Cherokee
promote proper gathering techniques.
The old ones have taught them that if you are gathering, you should only
pick every third plant you find.
This ensures that enough specimens still remain and will continue to
propagate.
Here are some of the medicinal plants that were commonly used and
foraged for by the Cherokee tribe.


However, the following 6 plants were used by this tribe in the treatment
of almost every single illness and health condition.
However, before we explain their properties, we must warn you that they
can be quite strong and dangerous if not used properly.
Keep in mind that the Cherokee healers were experienced as they had
centuries of practice. Furthermore, it is of high importance to
understand their value as powerful natural medications, so you should be
gentle when scavenging them.

These are the natural plants that provide amazing health benefits:

Plants For Healing

Blackberry
To the Cherokee, the blackberry is the longest known remedy to an upset
stomach, however this herb can be used for just about anything.
Using a strong tea from the root of blackberry helps to reduce swelling
of tissue and joints. A decoction from the roots, sweetened with honey
or maple syrup, makes a great cough syrup.
Even chewing on the leaves of blackberry can sooth bleeding gums.
ex....
I eat blackberries all the time like our black bears and I think it
has so much good nutrient etc. and that why black bears can go into
hibernation for winter season?

Some other health benefits of blackberry fruit include

•better digestion
•strengthened immune system
•healthy functioning of the heart
•prevention of cancer
•relief from endothelial dysfunction

These tasty berries are also incredibly nutritious.
Vitamins provided by blackberries include vitamin A, vitamin B6,
vitamin C, vitamin E, vitamin K, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, and
folate.
Blackberries also have an incredible mineral wealth of calcium, iron,
magnesium, phosphorous, potassium, and zinc.
They are also a good source of dietary fiber and essential amino acids.

Hummingbird Blossom (Buck Brush)
Hummingbird blossom has been used by the Cherokee for treatment of
cysts, fibroid tumors, inflammation, and mouth/throat problems.
Present day research has concluded that this herb is also great for
treating high blood pressure and lymphatic blockages.

The Cherokee mainly use hummingbird blossom as a diuretic to stimulate
kidney function, however it was was also used to treat conditions such
as:

•inflamed tonsils
•enlarged lymph nodes
•enlarged spleens
•hemorrhoids
•menstrual bleeding.

To get all of the benefits from hummingbird blossom, the Cherokee would
steep the leave and flowers in a boiling water for about five minutes
then drink the tea while it is still warm.

Qua lo ga (Sumac)
Every single part of this herb can be used for medicinal purposes! Sumac bark can be made into a mild decoction that can be taken to soothe diarrhea. The decoction from the bark can also be gargled to help with a sore throat. Ripe berries can make a pleasant beverage that is rich in vitamin C. The tea from the leaves of sumac can reduce fevers. You can even crush the leaves into an ointment to help relieve a poison ivy rash. A study published in Iranian Journal of Pharmaceutical Research reported that sumac, if added to daily diet, can help lower cholesterol levels.
