I use to take ginseng daily. But, I have a low platelet count and was told by a hematologist that ginseng has a negative effect on your platelet count. So, I stopped taking it.
I do drink hibiscus tea daily, as it is supposed to lower your blood pressure. Seems to help mine.

Elderberries are one of natures best answers to viruses. In fact there are some findings about elderberry extracts calming down inflammation which can lead to dementia and other chronic conditions.

Mullein is supposed to be great. I transplanted one into the garden last year. Easy to grow. There are three down by the road I might transplant again this year. They claim drying the leaves and smoking it helps clear out your lungs and helps open you up. I tried it a couple times and it seemed to do something. I guess I'm still in the testing phase.

That seems like an easy one around here. What easy one are you already doing you can tell me about?

Such as the "wild-wood weed"? No, not for decades.
