I stayed in the woods for a spring with a old man "Buford Stitcher" learning about herbs, their was way to much to keep up with. But a few I remember:

Yellow Root tea cures all ailments
Chew on green pine needles to stop coughing
smoke rabbit tobacco to clear sinuses
make tea out of saw briar for testosterone
Chew sasafrass bark for sore tooth
BoarHog Root is natural Viagra

If you plant a weeping willow, when it gets big enough to cover your grave you will die.

If a child has asthma plant a sourwood sappling. When the grows to be taller than the child, the child won't have asthma anymore.

My greatgrandmother used to cook polk salad every spring for everyone's "spring cleaning". Used the tobacco on the wasp stings frequently. My grandmother swears that when she had a blood clot in her leg that my greatgrandmother rounded up some red elm bark, boiled it and wrapped her legs with the juice and in 3 days it was gone.

if a child has astma get a chiwahwa. but if the astma is to bad it will kill the dog. so sometimes you have to keep getting chiwahwas till one finally lives then the astma will be gone

When my mom (she's 90 now - that's unimportant but it shows how old this remedy is) was a little girl she got a wart on her index finger. The family maid, who had grandparents who were slaves (this remedy is supposed to come from slave folklore), mixed up a salve of a few kitchen ingredients and bacon grease. She covered the wart in the salve and then wrapped the hair from a horse's tail around it several times and tied it off. That was wrapped in a linen bandage and left untouched for 5 days. The wart fell off and never grew back.

Calf dehorning paste will get rid of one in 10 minutes if you're a big enough boy to stand the pain for the last 7 minutes

I dont know what or how he did it but when I was young I had a distant cousin that could talk warts off. I was about 11 and I had warts on my feet and one on my hand. The ones on my feet (probably 15 or so in a couple of patches) hurt when playing sports. I didn't think it was possible to remove them because we had tried several medications. He moved his hands over them while mumbling something in a very low voice. Within a week maybe two they were gone. Darndest thing I have seen happen to this day.

I had an Aunt that did basically the same thing. I had them all over both my hands and they were gone by the next week.
