I am just getting caught up - there are just sooo many articles... I do hope mine is half this good. You are right a lot of stuff is lost or they dont want to share it and have it on the market for cash...

Here there is a lot of spirituality associated with healing, and they don't share that part at all, so they are afraid that the efficacy of the "cure" isn't as potent. they may be right, who knows?

I dont know... it is a hard thing to crack... I keep trying and have some of my grandmothers old notes - just I am not sure I want to share all her secrets...

Not an easy call...maybe you can list the plant and a general method of prep - but keep the details back...that way you are spreading the good without revealing her secrets. I don't think that anyone is going to try to USE these remedies without further research, but they may contact you for details, at which time you can decide whether or not to reveal the rest. Just the general info will be fascinating, I'm sure!
