Give her lots of Passionflower tincture! Oatstraw infusion every day is good. Try making one every night. Take a quart-size jar, throw two good handfuls of oatstraw herb in there, fill with boiling water, cover, and steep overnight. Strain it in the morning and see if she'll drink it throughout the day. It's great iced. Fresh chickweed, for some reason is specifically awesome for old folks in need of some rejuvenation. I don't know if it grows anywhere near you but it's an abundant wild weed here in the Northeast. Skullcap is another good infusion for the nervous system. Does she take painkillers? Some folks who take opiates, or have in the past, have more trouble with their nervous system and skullcap is specifically good for those people. Ginkgo Biloba has been used by lots of people for senility and memory loss with good results. Careful if she uses blood-thinners, though, as ginkgo can increase those effects. Taking Vitamin E capsules (400 IU) has also been known to help. Don't underestimate the power of food, either. Make sure she is getting plenty of healthy fats (olive oil, oily fish, some organic butter). A diet that is too low in fat can make these problems worse. Lots of whole grains will supply essential fatty acids that her brain needs. She should definitely limit white sugar and white flour. Good luck, love.  Egad you are brilliant... note to self: Keep in touch... since I am allergic to most meds..... I will need one with knowledge on the natural. Did....she.....just....say.....EGAD???

I thought that meant either a DJ or a bartender... 
Some great resources for natural healing with the beautiful beautiful plants: 1. www.susunweed.com (Her book, Healing Wise, is my healing BIBLE! I've met her in person and she's absolutely batshit, but she is one of the most incredible herbalists/healing wisewomen that we have nowadays. You can find lots of info on her site, including basic info on preparing teas, infusions, decoctions, etc.) 2. www.mountainroseherbs.com (The best place I've found for ordering organic herbs in bulk, and I've tried a few) 3. Yo grandma! Ask her. I bet she can remember natural remedies that have been in your family for years. Trust them and trust her. The Normal Whores Club | |
