Saint Johns wort- Valerian Root- Cayenne-I take other herbs as well I like peppermint tea fixed with some green catnip. I mix up my own remedy for a cold or flue. I am going to order some Alo Vera (consecrated) and start taking this. I am taking vitamin C-Olive Leaf for shingles. Juniper berry. I believe in taking herbs it works better for me!

Lavender and lavender oil. The herb is great for making things smell good. Lavender oil helps kill germs, and is great on bug bites, small sores and mild burns. You can also put it in a steam bath if you are catching cold. It is also supposed to be calming. I really love it!

Any one who knows about herbs knows that teh medical value is diminished with over use. I use herbs medicinally and when they are in season. It is ridiculous for North Americas to think that its healthy to be consuming herbs from all over the world. It is important to use plants native to our habitat. However since you asked these are some of the herbs I use:
coltsfoot--spring as addition to smoking mixtures
burdock root--fall, blood cleanser, source of inulin (inulin cures and prevents diabetes)
chicory--summer hearts, fall roots, flowers source of inulin
coriander/cilantro---summer
ginger (general health)
dandelion (spring--cleans liver and kidneys)
pine needles
self heal/heal all (tiny blue flower in late summer really does heal everything)
marigold seeds (stop bleeding)
basil--clears sinuses
parsley--good for colds, dissolves crap in your lungs
fennel (late summer--good for eyesight, female reproductive system)
elder flower
yarrow--good for colds, cleansing---spring to summer
there's a lot more and this is based for southern ontario. herbs heal best if you grow tehm yourself or find them wild...

Neem Herbal Tree. I used Neem Herbal leaves boiled with a cup of glass of water every night for two months now. It treated many kind of diseases and it works with me. My cholesterol lowered and my high blood pressure dropped. Why did you ask anyway?
