Guest guest Posted January 2, 2005 Report Share Posted January 2, 2005 While transcribing the Swedish bitters recipe I realized I really did not know what exactly camphor was... Wasn't even sure if it was vegetable or mineral! Goddess Bless Google. Anyway, Googling got me to the website www.botanical.com, which turns out to contain Mrs Grieve's classic " A Modern Herbal " in hypertext form. Put any herb into the search engine and you get the chapter in question. Very inspiring! I got a whole new respect for Comfrey. Which venerable herb has also been banned by the powers that be. Apparently swilling huge amounts of comfrey root tincture internally if you already have a damaged liver can be damaging. Yeah, right. Ien in the Kootenays ******************************* Stop.
