Grow your own drugs

Recommended Posts

From the Fox TV guide...

Ethnobotanist James Wong shows viewers how to grow and transform vegetables into treatments which help ease muscle sprains and make a great addition to a low cholesterol diet.

Not expecting too much but the show may throw up something of interest for a few.

Damn. I thought they might have been catering towards the more alternative lifestyles.

It wouldn't be the first time. I was absolutely stunned to see 'The Magic Mushrooms of Ballingup Forest' on Lifestyle once, my respect for the channel increased exponentially as I watched it! :P

Yeah I thought I saw a thread about this or something similar but couldn't see it in news and notices, sorry if it's been posted before then. Looks like it's a series then and this weeks episode is about medicines from veges, well I mean it's a step isn't it and it's in the right direction. I'll have a watch tonight and put the show on series link too. You never know it might throw up some natural pain relief ideas etc..

Well I though this show rocked,

The chilli bandages that worked on soccer players with muscle injuries

The fruit roll ups made from hawthorn berries and artichoke that lowered that woman's cholesterol

The garlic and vinegar infusion that when a couple of teaspoons were placed in a hot water footbath healed that guys chronic athletes foot.

pretty interesting show really and the ethno botanist who hosts the show is remarkably likable and realistic.
