Great Blue Lobelia

greatbluelobelia_syphilitica

Another fantastic foraging find: Great Blue Lobelia! It's now in a jar being extracted in alcohol to make a tincture that will treat colds, coughs, pneumonia, bronchitis, asthma, fevers, etc. I have also used it in the past to help my muscles relax so I could go to sleep. Lobeline, the chemical in Lobelia, can also treat drug dependency, caffeine, and nicotine withdrawal, depression, ADHD, Parkinson's disease, and more.
