Berberine in Barberry Fruits
We use a lot of barberry at Herbs Hands Healing. As herbalists, we know how potent it is to mend and refurbish mitochondria and mitochondrial pathways. For this reason, it`s always been used for post-illness recovery and to support better energy levels overall.

Additionally, it is an excellent liver support plant.

A Cooling Cuppa of Fresh Lemon Verbena
If you are lucky enough to be growing this small Mediterranean shrub, then `cheers`.You`ll be enjoying a fragrant, cooling summer tea made from its leaves.

The biochemistry it possesses is very calming, naturally soothing and de-frazzling to the nervous system. Cooling and calming overall.

You can drink it hot or cold. Add ice cubes if you like and slices of lemon.

Very Calming Botanicals for Stress Relief
Our Chamomile & Vervain Formula (link: https://shop.herbs-hands-healing.co.uk/product/chamomile-vervain-formula) is our very fast-acting de-stressor.
There are fourteen plants in it, one of which is this beautiful tree bearing fragrant blossoms, which is the medicinal part.

It is called Lime tree, otherwise known as Tilia europaea. It`s a commonly found herb tea in France, used for headaches, anxiety and feeling frazzled.

Heart/cardiovascular care is hugely relevant in our hotter Summer this year and especially for those of us who are advancing in age. The generalised understanding is that the heart needs to be robust and healthy enough to pump oxygen-rich blood around the body, ensuring energy, zeal and the ability to achieve physical everyday tasks with ease and as we age.

Grapes grown in the UK
Delightful to watch the grapes getting bigger. They`ll be lovely big, sweet bunches by September.

All grapes are rich in Resveratrol, an important antioxidant for mitochondrial health.

Olive Fields in England
Apparently, growers in the South of the UK are investing in olive crops in order to produce English olive oil.

I`ve always grown olive trees and used the leaves medicinally, just as we do on our IntestAble Capsules (link: https://shop.herbs-hands-healing.co.uk/product/intestable-capsules) for gut health.
