What a great way to celebrate Earth Day. Preparing some Elecampane, Inula helenium, root with my 4 1/2 month old grandson. Start ’em young is my motto. He is one healthy herbal baby!
Our 5 yr. old neighbour, Ember, was helping dig jerusalem artichoke tubers, also known as sunchokes, (Helianthus tuberosus) – a great source of natural inulin, when we came across this forgotten elecampane plant with some very healthy roots!
Elecampane is such a wonderful herb for lung conditions and parasites. There are more uses of course, but I want to get this posted while it is still Earth Day, so that will have to do for now.
Nature’s Sunshine uses this herb in these formulas: Artemisia Combination and Caprylic Acid Combination. Both of these combinations are part of the Candida Clear Pak and the Para Pak.
Elecampane is also part of the ULC-R formula for ulcers. Elecampane kills helicobacter pylori bacteria, which is a cause of ulcers, and can lead to more serious stomach issues if not correctly addressed.
