Sorry to hear you and the grand kids are sick man its going around I live only about 15 min from the pfs and all 6 of my boys are sick so I'm just waiting for my turn
Dave, on behalf of everyone on here id like to thank you for these videos. its amazing that someone with your fame still finds the time to shoot videos and educate your fans. we all appreciate and enjoy everything you do
My grandmother made bonset tea and willow tea for us when we were sick not at the same time like you did but all I remember is just feeling better but it was so long ago I don't remember any of the other side affects that I had
I really appreciate you taking the time to make these Dave. Most people from urban areas would find no use for this knowledge but most of my family are hunters and I will be sure to pass what I've learned from you on.
I've really enjoyed your tri-series and your medical plants and how you can get them from trees. Read about five six of your books about 10 of your pamphlet. Are you planning on making their special trees / medical book or pamphlet? I only be interested bushcraft & survival two years. So keep the books and videos coming and I will keep watching and referring them. Gingdah 🚶💀
The bark of willow has the same acid that Asprin in made from. I do not know what the chemicals are in the boneset, which looks like Joe Pie weed. Sorry if you covered this, I had to walk away several times while the video played. Sorry Good stuff though. I am learly about mixing plants, but in this case is probably cool. Feeling rough, and can't sleep, you can also make a tea from Golden Rod leaves. They are a natural light sedative provided you are not alergic to it. So is Bee Balm, also known as bergamot. If you find it.
@adamanime2 he teaches survival skills in the back country, and dehydration commonly goes along with survival (unfortunately). But survival-wise, water ( and food) are your third priority, never intentionally stay dehydrated in the bush, always hydrate at every reasonable juncture
@TrinityRewind I don't think anyone could say that any better! Dave is awesome! I also think that it's amazing that he takes the time to help everyone with his research and knowledge by making and sharing these videos. Great comment!
Hey @wildernessoutfitters , you should make a little handy-book that we can buy. Add a little old fashion paper on it (only the look cuz the quality would be very important if we take it with us into the wild), and add tips, drawings and more. That would be the most handy book we could have with us into the wild!
@lldistributor maybe cedar people use it to line closets with to keep moths away. and it is often used for bedding for animals. some people are alergic to it though
If it's any consolation - a co-worker was telling me a story of trying a Chinese tea brought straight in from China for Martial-Arts training/health, and he states he started urinating a ton. Likewise, I bought a new (to me) loose-leaf tea (Lapsang souchong - it is smoked or burnt perhaps like you were saying the herbalist suggested the Boneset should be) and it, too, had that affect on me multiple times (hours later though, not within the hour) when I first drank it, but not anymore.
You're a wise and very talented man Dave, thanks for being there. One small correction though: it's "libido" vs. "lobedo" (has the same result of course). From your Canadian chiropractor student.
awesome video dave! thaks to u and other great teachers, after a year of forcing myself to learn and memorize many wild plants and other survival knowledge, i finally start geting some results. about a month ago i achieved my first fire using a bow drill. i finally start recognizing n trying wild medicinal n edibles (no poisoning whatsoever :-) through ur teachings i now apreciate a lot more the value of resources, from water to high tech. greetings from mexico. hope u travel down here sometime.
hello sir! jsut wanted to say somthing here! normal meds from doctors dont work on me they make me hyperactive, depressed and most of the time extreamly aggressive! but i had muscle aches and figured this would be a good thing to try! it workded amazingly but then last night i got extreamly hot and had strangely aggressive dreams (dont ask) this is just my warning to anyone going to try this to try it when your not in the woods or in a survival situation because that would be bad Aren,
To answer my own question about location: from Wikipedia: Boneset: "It is nearly always found in low, wet areas and is often found near Phalaris arundinacea (Reed canary grass)."
@wildernessoutfitters I'm glad to hear that, my imagination got the better of me. Is there any knack to locating the boneset? I know I've seen it around my area but I can't seem to locate information on the type of soil or habitat it prefers.
Hey Dave, excellent vid!!! Don't forget you could add some Sassafras to make the taste a little better. What brand and size of cup is that you are using?
@SailfishSoundSystem a body temp of 115 is the highest a human has had and survived. i've had a fever of 105 before and survived with no ill effects. 108 to 109 is often fatal.
@wildernessoutfitters you are awsome man love all your vids my mom even loves to watch them cuz my grandma was always big on herbal medicine because there was no stores where she lived and she knew almost a cure for everything lol anyway keep up man much luv
First and foremost I respect your channel. Hence why I subscribe to it for the excellent knowledge. Just to clear things up, I am not saying boneset will kill you outright with a fever, just with a high fever it is possible. If you had a low grade fever 99-101F it could be beneficial, because that would cause your body to operate at higher temperatures that bacteria and viruses can't thrive in. Keep on truckin. God bless.
@wildernessoutfitters You went to the bathroom twice because it is also used to excrete excess uric acid which causes gout, maybe why you have a burning sensation.
Hey Dave, I was just in Northern Canada and the Mosquitos were nightmarish. I have been looking around for effective repellent. I am not a big fan of DEET. Many of the so called repellents just do not seem to work.
As usual, a very good video, very informative! Thanks. Btw please keep doing these video on medicinal plants/ trees of the east. Also include south east please.
By-the-way, is there a wilderness equivalent to alcohol to make tinctures? I've heard of milk vodka, like the Mongols made, but don't know if it'd work (plus it'd be kind of hard to get the milk, anyway). Also, is it a good idea to try these smaller doses when you don't need them, to see how your body reacts? Would it do different things if you weren't needing it, or would it be like taking cough drops when you didn't need to?
Just wanted to say thanks bradda. I subscribed about a month ago, and diggin on the Dual Survival thing too. You and Cody are definitely badass. I've learned a lot and enjoy taking this knowledge in the wilderness. Lookin forward to learning more...What guide/book would you suggest I put in my b.o.b. to help me identify and use some of these medicinal plants and trees. Hope the boneset didn't make you barf to bad. Can't be no worse than Cody eating nuts out of elephant dung. You guys are great.
Hey Dave, thanks again!, do you think west coast willow bark and mullein would be a good mix?, i have lots of both in my neck of the California woods. let me know what ya think
@wildernessoutfitters Hehe... yea, I saw what he was talking about. You did kinda look like you were fighting it back. Good work on the video- I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge with the rest of us!
Hey Dave I don't see that boneset is in California though I am not sure? I checked on plantsusda.gov. Is this a reliable site? Thanks, everything is very much appreciated!
i know you dont subsribe to the whole bigfoot ,swamp ape paranormal thing but i just gotta ask have u ever while out in the woods seen anything u cant describe or didnt belong there that made the hair on the back of your neck stand up, stupid question but i was curious lol
Hello, I am aromatic farmer and have "Steam distillation unit for essential oils extraction" I am looking for trees to grow on farm boundaries from which I can extract essential oils with steam distillation of leaves. Could you please suggest me trees whose leaves can be used to extract essential oils that are aromatic or medicinal ?
One thing we should know is what herbs that we are allergic to. We should get tested for herbal tolerances in the public schools system. Imagine in your heath class, you rub a few drops of given herbs in a dot pattern on your arm. You then note by number code which if any cause an allergic reaction. There is no reason we can't do this. Then everyone will know what affects them. YOUR life is in YOUR hands. YOU are your first doctor. YOU are responsible for YOU
Hum, didn't know there was 2 types of willow.I have one growing around my stock pound but not sure which one it is. so how know which one i have.Now an oz is 2 table spoons.so 1 and half oz would be 2 table spoons and 1 teaspoon.
@wildernessoutfitters All I was saying is that if the plant by nature raises body temperature and you had a high and dangerous fever, you could potentially do your brain some damage.
Hey Dave, you sick? Wanna stop by walmart for some theraflu? Nah, im gomna hike 7 miles into camp and pluck some weeds and bark...make my own medicine,lol. This guy is badass!
were would you get the pamplet on the trees and weeds you had in your bag for reference would like to get one
Sorry to hear you and the grand kids are sick man its going around I live only about 15 min from the pfs and all 6 of my boys are sick so I'm just waiting for my turn
Dave, on behalf of everyone on here id like to thank you for these videos. its amazing that someone with your fame still finds the time to shoot videos and educate your fans.
we all appreciate and enjoy everything you do
I've learned something new from every on of your video. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and feel better soon.
This has been a great series.
My grandmother made bonset tea and willow tea for us when we were sick not at the same time like you did but all I remember is just feeling better but it was so long ago I don't remember any of the other side affects that I had

Great info Dave! I'll keep an eye out for Bonset on my next hike..
Dave, I love the beard. Keep it for Season 3! Always appreciate your videos brother, thank you.

Great videos, just found these, really enjoying content and delivery.
A man doing what he loves. You're a credit to your craft. Thank you Dave. (That's a bad*S's debrit hut too.). Respect.
Fantastic, I appreciate all you are doing, excellent information, keep up the good work Dave. Thanks again.
Dave, thank you so much! I bought some books on trees but I like your presentation so much.
Hope you feel better Dave
@adamanime2 he teaches survival skills in the back country, and dehydration commonly goes along with survival (unfortunately). But survival-wise, water ( and food) are your third priority, never intentionally stay dehydrated in the bush, always hydrate at every reasonable juncture
Per cup of cooled mixture, add (tbs) honey for taste and apple cider vinegar (not pasteurized) for PH balance.
i appreciate how organized your videos are...and your information on herbal-ism
...
@TrinityRewind I don't think anyone could say that any better! Dave is awesome! I also think that it's amazing that he takes the time to help everyone with his research and knowledge by making and sharing these videos. Great comment!

Very good info! Thanks very much for doing these videos.
Great stuff, liking these videos a lot. Thanks a million

Awesome Dave! Thank you for another Great Video!
Wow... filming while your sick.. Thanks for all your hard work brother!
Hope you feel better Dave... being sick sucks. =(
Hey Dave, excellent vid!!! Don't forget you could add some Sassafras to make the taste a little better. What brand and size of cup is that you are using?
@SailfishSoundSystem
a body temp of 115 is the highest a human has had and survived. i've had a fever of 105 before and survived with no ill effects. 108 to 109 is often fatal.
Usually a small palm full of the leaves are what you are looking for per cup of tea.
@wildernessoutfitters you are awsome man love all your vids my mom even loves to watch them cuz my grandma was always big on herbal medicine because there was no stores where she lived and she knew almost a cure for everything lol anyway keep up man much luv

@wildernessoutfitters
I'd really like to see an episode on Osage Orange/Horseapple/Bowdark (if there's any sort of medicinal use for it at all)
where did you get those pamphlets?
Hope you feel better
@wildernessoutfitters You went to the bathroom twice because it is also used to excrete excess uric acid which causes gout, maybe why you have a burning sensation.

Thanks. Corner pharmacy still there so far, but why not go more natural even before circumstances demand it?
Hey Dave, thanks again!, do you think west coast willow bark and mullein would be a good mix?, i have lots of both in my neck of the California woods. let me know what ya think
You can also inhale the boneset vapors to reduce catarrh and lung secretion
@wildernessoutfitters Hehe... yea, I saw what he was talking about. You did kinda look like you were fighting it back. Good work on the video- I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge with the rest of us!
Looking forward to the Sassafrass video.
man I just love this guy. he is so cool!
Hey Dave I don't see that boneset is in California though I am not sure? I checked on plantsusda.gov. Is this a reliable site? Thanks, everything is very much appreciated!
Dave what kind of cup are you using with your Guyote bottle?
love the videos keep them comeing
See the book by Dr Jarvis, 1958, Folk Medicine: A Vermont Doctor's Guide to Good Health.
DeForest Clinton Jarvis (March 15, 1881 - August 18, 1966)
Dave is there any tree or plant that will kill or repel deer ticks ? in my area there terrible great vidio thanks
@TrinityRewind Well said! I agree!
Do a search on Amazon for pocket guides of medicinal plants. Several on there.
Anything for Lyme disease? I'm a chronic sufferer and would try just about anything.
oh i just noticed this... did you get a tattoo over the cut you cauterized with gunpowder on the show?
you are the best man! keep it up!
I think its the Medical plants by james kavanagh
i really dig that hat
what kind is it
what are the best field guides,like the one dave is using?
i know you dont subsribe to the whole bigfoot ,swamp ape paranormal thing but i just gotta ask have u ever while out in the woods seen anything u cant describe or didnt belong there that made the hair on the back of your neck stand up, stupid question but i was curious lol
What's the name of the guide pamphlet you referenced?
are there any Euro or better yet, English alternatives? These are great tutorials but all the ones so far have been N.American only unfortunately.
Good vid Dave thanks for sharing.
Does the potency of these 2 plants change depending on the seasons? eg stronger in spring
may i know why you keep yourself dehydrated?
Hello,
I am aromatic farmer and have "Steam distillation unit for essential oils extraction"
I am looking for trees to grow on farm boundaries from which I can extract essential oils with steam distillation of leaves.
Could you please suggest me trees whose leaves can be used to extract essential oils that are aromatic or medicinal ?
Dave, where'd you get that hat brother? Nice Vid as always.
Is boneset called "ironweed" by some? I believe I know this plant, but we've never called it boneset.
can you give a list of the tree and boneset this can be useful if you need it
Dave, how well did this work for ya ?
@wildernessoutfitters He could be right if it raises your core temp when you already have a fever that is dangerous.
Can you use yarrow or is that too different than boneset?
Break-bone fever is what many call Dengue in the Caribbean.
haven't seen any boneset here though.
One thing we should know is what herbs that we are allergic to. We should get tested for herbal tolerances in the public schools system.

willow thins blood... keep this in mind if you have an open wound
Hum, didn't know there was 2 types of willow.I have one growing around my stock pound but not sure which one it is. so how know which one i have.Now an oz is 2 table spoons.so 1 and half oz would be 2 table spoons and 1 teaspoon.
Great video man, keep them up i really enjoy them :)
@RiseDemUp i see boneset where i deer hunt thanks dave now i can use it if needed i think the deer like to eat the leaves.
Boneset. Good for hyperthermia?..... .
On part 2 white pine you forgot (fat wood or pitch wood) for fire making
A lot of these plant and tree dave talks about are not in Tx.any one know of any book I could get that will talks about Tx medicinal trees and plans
What is the name of the pamphlet?
Is this safe? I heard that boneset Contains Acid compounds that could damage your liver.
hey dave can you bring the pack goat back?
@wildernessoutfitters All I was saying is that if the plant by nature raises body temperature and you had a high and dangerous fever, you could potentially do your brain some damage.
sweet video like always...
Hey Dave, you sick? Wanna stop by walmart for some theraflu? Nah, im gomna hike 7 miles into camp and pluck some weeds and bark...make my own medicine,lol. This guy is badass!
Thank you.
willow makes the best charcoal for making blackpowder
