YOUR BODY SECRETLY CRAVES FOR THESE 10 HERBS AND NO ONE WILL EVER TELL YOU THIS. SAVE IT!

1. Black Seed (Nigella Sativa) has been studied for over 2,000 years and reduces inflammation markers by up to 52% - more than most over-the-counter pills.

2. Boswellia (Frankincense) blocks the exact enzyme - 5-LOX - that drives arthritis inflammation, doing what many supplements cannot even target.

3. Cilantro chemically bonds to heavy metals like mercury and lead and physically removes them from your tissues.

4. Dandelion Root forces your liver to release bile, the fluid that breaks down fat and flushes cholesterol from your blood.

5. Nettle Leaf naturally blocks the enzyme that converts testosterone to DHT - the hormone behind hair loss in both men and women.

6. Triphala feeds the 37 trillion bacteria in your gut - the gut-brain axis controlling your mood, focus, and immunity.

7. Lion's Mane mushroom stimulates nerve growth factor, literally regrowing brain connections lost to chronic stress and aging.

8. Holy Basil (Tulsi) balances blood sugar, reduces anxiety, AND fights bacterial infections. Nature's triple-threat mpainkiller.

9. Moringa has 7x more vitamin C than oranges and 4x more calcium than milk - and most people have never touched it.

10. Milk Thistle is the only herb proven to actively regenerate damaged liver cells, not just protect them

05/22/2026

The sunchoke is the most recommended vegetable in permaculture literature and the most likely vegetable to make you regret following that recommendation. Every self-sufficiency guide says the same: plant a few tubers, do almost nothing, harvest nutritious food each autumn. What those guides leave out is what happens in year two.

Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus) spreads by underground rhizomes and tubers throughout the soil. NC State Extension documents that the plant is now established in all but five US states, forms colonies, and is difficult to remove once established — because any tiny piece of the plant left in the soil will sprout a new plant. The problem is not the tubers you harvest. The problem is the ones you do not find.

A single plant produces several pounds of tubers in one growing season. They are not all near the crown. Some are large and obvious at harvest depth; others are small, scattered, and distributed across a 3-to-5-foot radius. You will miss some. Those will grow the following spring. Tuber fragments from plants you break during digging also regrow. Digging, like tilling mint, multiplies what you are trying to remove.

The plant is also allelopathic. University of Wisconsin Extension documents that the leaves and stems produce phytotoxins that suppress competitor plant germination in the surrounding area. A Jerusalem artichoke colony does not just crowd neighboring plants — it chemically discourages their germination as well.

What actually works: grow it in a large container of at least 5 gallons with a closed solid base, or in a raised bed with no soil escape path at the base. Clemson University Extension specifies confined spaces or containers for anyone who does not want the plant spreading. If grown in ground soil, use a buried barrier at least 18 inches deep — and accept that complete annual tuber removal is not realistically achievable in open soil.

One secondary fact worth knowing: Jerusalem artichoke has nothing to do with Jerusalem. The plant is native to North American prairies and was cultivated by Indigenous peoples for centuries before European contact. The name is likely a corruption of "girasole" — the Italian word for sunflower. It is also not an artichoke.

Plant it in its own container and it will feed you reliably for years. Plant it in your garden bed and it will also feed you reliably for years — and everyone else in a 10-foot radius.

🤍💜Passion Flower, Maypop (Passiflora incarnata)

🌿This fascinating flowering vine is native to the US, Central, and South Americas. It grows up to 30 ft long, and blooms from around July into October. There are over 400 different passiflora species, not all of them are edible, and not all of them have medicinal values. Always ensure proper plant identification before foraging.

🥝🥭🍍Maypop fruits are oval in shape and are ripe in early fall. You can eat the fleshy center as well as the seeds. The flavor has been described as being tangy and tropical-like. Many people utilize it in jams, jellies, and desserts. It can also be enjoyed plain or in a fruit salad.

🍶The flowers and aerial parts have been utilized in herbal medicine for thousands of years. Indigenous tribes would use them for pain relief, nervous conditions, and sedation. In today's herbal world it is valued for many different reasons including insomnia, toothaches, menstrual cramps, anxiety and more.

✨️Key Constituents:
-Cyanogenic glycosides (gynocardin)
-Flavonoid (apigenin)
-Indole alkaloids (trace)
-Amino acids

✨️Key Actions:
-Sedative
-Tranquilizing
-Antispasmatic

You can utilize the aerial parts dried and flowers fresh or dried. Add dried aerial parts to a tincture to help with insomnia, menstrual cramps, and toothaches. Create a tea infusion with flowers and/or aerial parts for menstrual cramps, tension, and irritability.

⚠️This does cause drowsiness. It can also affect movement and balance. Do not drive after consuming.

⚠️Passionflower should not be taken while pregnant. Do not take if you are on OTC or prescription medications for sedatives, blood thinners, or antidepressants. If you have heart conditions talk with your doctor prior to use. Make sure to consult a doctor if already on any medications prior to use.

Ashwagandha is a traditional Ayurvedic herb primarily recognized for its ability to reduce stress, lower cortisol levels, and improve sleep quality. As an adaptogen, it works broadly to help the body regulate its response to physical and emotional stressors.
🧠
Mental Health and Cognitive Benefits
Stress and anxiety reduction: Clinical trials tracked by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) show that daily doses significantly lower subjective stress and anxiety levels.
Cortisol regulation: It directly decreases serum cortisol, the body's primary stress hormone.
Sleep quality improvement:
It calms the nervous system, helping individuals fall asleep faster and achieve deeper sleep.
Cognitive enhancement:
Early research suggests it can improve memory, focus, and general executive function.
💪🏽
Physical Performance and Reproductive Health
Athletic performance: Supplementation is linked to increased \(VO_{2}\) max, which boosts cardiovascular endurance during exercise.
Muscle strength:
Studies indicate it enhances upper and lower body muscle mass, strength, and speeds up post-workout recovery.
Male fertility:
According to data on WebMD, it can boost testosterone levels, improve s***m count, and enhance motility.
Hormone balance:
For women, it can support endocrine function, helping mitigate mood shifts and reproductive stress.
⚖️
Metabolic and General Health
Blood sugar management: Compounds in the root help lower blood glucose and improve insulin sensitivity.
Anti-inflammatory properties: Its active constituents, called withanolides, help lower chronic inflammation throughout the body.
⚠️
Important Safety Considerations
While beneficial, expert analysis from Cleveland Clinic notes that standard doses range from 300 mg to 600 mg daily. Common mild side effects include nausea, upset stomach, and drowsiness.
You should avoid ashwagandha if you are pregnant, have an autoimmune condition, or take medications for thyroid disorders, diabetes, or blood pressure
Who should avoid ashwagandha?
People with hyperthyroid (overactive thyroid) conditions because it can increase thyroid hormones in the body
Pregnant people because it may stimulate the uterus
People with certain autoimmune conditions should talk to their clinician before using it.
People with cancer should also talk to their clinician before taking it, as it can impact hormones, which can feed certain cancers.
⚠️ CONTRAINDICATIONS
Ashwagandha Medication Interactions to Be Careful About
If you are on any medication, you should talk to your clinician before starting any herbal supplement. Some studies have shown harmful side effects of taking ashwagandha while on certain medications, including:
~Sedatives.
Because both ashwagandha and sedatives can make you drowsy, they should not be used together. For example, sleep medications such as:
Zolpidem (Ambien®)
Benzodiazepines like alprazolam (Xanax®)
Clonazepam (Klonopin®)
Opioid pain medications like oxycodone
Barbiturates like phenobarbital
~Thyroid medications.
Because ashwagandha may increase thyroid hormone levels and thyroid medications are intended to regulate them, it is recommended to not mix the two. These include:
Levothyroxine (Synthroid®, Levoxyl®)
Desiccated thyroid medications (Armour Thyroid®)
Liothyronine (Cytomel®)
Methimazol and propylthiouracil
~Diabetes medications.
Ashwagandha may lower your blood glucose levels, so it should not be combined with diabetes medications like insulin.
Immunosuppressant medications. Ashwagandha may impact your immune system and interfere with medications that suppress your immune system. These include:
Steroids
Organ transplantation medications
Biologics
~High blood pressure (hypertension) medications. Ashwagandha may lower blood pressure, similar to how high blood pressure medications do. For example:
Beta blockers
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors
Angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs)
Calcium channel blockers
Diuretics
~Hepatotoxic medications. Ashwagandha may increase your risk of liver damage when taken with medications that can cause liver damage, particularly with chronic use. These include pain relievers and anti-inflammatories such as:
Acetaminophen
Ibuprofen
Naproxen
Amoxicillin
Erythromycin
~Safety:
Look for GRAS status. One of the key criteria for classifying an herb as an adaptogen is that it holds Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) status. This means that it is considered safe when used according to the instructions on the bottle.

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS WHEN YOU PRE‑ORDER? 🧾

I know the question: “Why should I pre‑order instead of just waiting?”

Fair question. Here’s the honest answer.

🧺1,000 goal on Spotfund isn’t “fun money.”
It buys:
🧺400 → Organic dried herbs (chamomile, passionflower, tulsi, peppermint, mullein…)
🍯 250 → Local raw honey for honeys & oxymels
📦 150 → Bottles, tins, pouches & labels
🧂100→ Spices + apple cider vinegar
💰100 → Spotfund’s small transaction fees

Every single backer is essentially buying the first production run. You’re not “donating” – you’re directly funding the herbs that will end up in your own tea cup.
