I tried a fava beans tincture using the whole young plant grown hydroponically in the kitchen. I did not dry them before tincture-ing and am going to try a new experiment starting today…growing the seeds in shallow water to about 6 inches tall and then DRYING the whole plant(seed at bottom also) before tincturing.
I don’t think the small amount I made with fresh plant in the blender will keep well…so I am back to drying the plant parts first…will let you know in a about 6 weeks if I am happier with this batch….and I will count bean plants and get exact measurements of dried plant material to put in jar with how much brandy to share with you.
It is wonderful to be able to make your own l-dopa supplements and not have to depend on synthetic l-dopa that causes yet other symptoms I still need a researcher here to test things. Guess the Lord is just holding off ’til the right person He has chosen is available.
I sometimes feel impatient and have to remind myself. ..To everything, there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven I look at those around me suffering with the symptoms of PD and the side-effects from the medications and want so much for them to be able to have a better quality of life and feel good …the way I do. God has made every natural we need to survive. EVERYTHING!
We just need to learn how to use what he has given and be thankful each day for our many blessings…too many to count.
May God Bless You!
