Show 275: Schisandra

Southern Appalachian Herbs

This week, we discuss the medicinal and edible uses of the Schisandra family.  These plants are extremely important to Asian herbal medicine and have edible berries that are considered to be one of the most delicious foods known to man.  One variety is native to my region but has no documented medicinal or edible use..... I will have to experiment with it this year and hope I survive! Also, I am back on Youtube Please subscribe to my channel: @judsoncarroll5902   Judson Carroll - YouTube Tune of the week: Black and Tan Blues on guitar I show you how to play Blind Boy Fuller's "Black and Tan". Fuller was a legendary North Carolina guitar player and singer. A protegee of Blind Blake, he ruled the Durham piedmont blues scene until his untimely death at age 36. His playing was dynamic, complex and energetic. https://youtu.be/1ctcBGtrdo8 Email: judson@judsoncarroll.com Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/southern-appalachian-herbs--4697544/support Read about The Spring Foraging Cookbook: https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2024/01/the-spring-foraging-cookbook.html Available for purchase on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CRP63R54 Medicinal Weeds and Grasses of the American Southeast, an Herbalist's Guide https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2023/05/medicinal-weeds-and-grasses-of-american.html Available in paperback on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C47LHTTH and Confirmation, an Autobiography of Faith https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2023/05/confirmation-autobiography-of-faith.html Available in paperback on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C47Q1JNK Visit my Substack and sign up for my free newsletter: https://judsoncarroll.substack.com/ Read about my new other books: Medicinal Ferns and Fern Allies, an Herbalist's Guide https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2022/11/medicinal-ferns-and-fern-allies.html Available for purchase on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BMSZSJPS The Omnivore’s Guide to Home Cooking for Preppers, Homesteaders, Permaculture People and Everyone Else: https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2022/10/the-omnivores-guide-to-home-cooking-for.html Available for purchase on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BGKX37Q2 Medicinal Shrubs and Woody Vines of The American Southeast an Herbalist's Guide https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2022/06/medicinal-shrubs-and-woody-vines-of.html Available for purchase on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B2T4Y5L6 and Growing Your Survival Herb Garden for Preppers, Homesteaders and Everyone Else https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2022/04/growing-your-survival-herb-garden-for.html https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09X4LYV9R The Encyclopedia of Medicinal Bitter Herbs: https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2022/03/the-encyclopedia-of-bitter-medicina.html Available for purchase on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B5MYJ35R and Christian Medicine, History and Practice: https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2022/01/christian-herbal-medicine-history-and.html Available for purchase on Amazon: www.amazon.com/dp/B09P7RNCTB Herbal Medicine for Preppers, Homesteaders and Permaculture People: https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2021/10/herbal-medicine-for-preppers.html Also available on Amazon: www.amazon.com/dp/B09HMWXL25 Podcast:  https://www.spreaker.com/show/southern-appalachian-herbs Blog: https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/ Free Video Lessons: Herbal Medicine 101 - YouTube https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL7QS6b0lQqEclaO9AB-kOkkvlHr4tqAbs
