Red Clover Combination by Dr. Christopher & Intro

[Guest guest]

Hello everyone,

 

Just a short intro for me, and the answer to RD's question.

 

I joined this list some time ago, but up to now have just watched

and read. My husband and I live on a small acreage in southeast

Washington state. I presently manage a non-profit musical

organization made up of two symphony orchestras and a chorale

which perform all over northeastern Oregon, plus I play violin in one

of the orchestras. In my " spare time " (not!) I own and operate a

small herbal manufacturing business, and make tinctures, salves,

and teas. My husband teaches at a local community college

(biology, oceanography, chemistry, physics, and geography,

depending on the whim of the administration...)

 

Dr. Christopher's " Red Clover Combination " is comprised of red

clover blossoms, chaparral, licorice root, poke root, peach bark,

oregon grape root, stillingia, cascara sagrada, sarsaparilla, prickly

ash bark, burdock root, and buckthorn bark. His formula,

according to his book " School of Natural Healing " , comprises 2

parts of the red clover blossoms, and 1 part each of the rest of the

ingredients. For a one-pound batch of tea (454 grams), you would

need 70 grams of red clover blossoms, and 35 grams each of

everything else.

Dear Diana,

 

Welcome out of "lurk" mode, and it's always nice to have another professional herbalist in the group. Especially another Doc Christopher fan.

 

Love,

 

Doc
