Boy am I sorry to hear about you being so sick! I wish I new more about herbal remedies but I'm afraid I don't. I hope someone else comes along behind me and leaves you a message to help you. I sure hope you're better today.

Mint

A nice weak cup of mint tea with very LITTLE sweetening should ease that poor tummy!!!

If this doesn't help, send a personal message to Carla (if she doesn't see this) ... she knows much more than I do!

I'm with Connie. Mint is good for soothing tummies. Hope you're 100% soon.

Sage Tea

Prepared as an infusion (1 teaspoon of the herb
steeped 15-30 minutes in a covered cup of boiled water)

Hot or cold sage tea, also known as a diaphoretic herb, hot sage tea will increase the flow of bodily fluids (e.g. perspiration and delayed periods) and decrease the flow when taken cold.
Colds, flu, and bronchial afflictions benefit from hot sage's ability to expectorate and increase sweating and elimination of toxins.
Cold sage tea arrests diarrhea. Drink 2-4 cups a day, hot or cold, depending upon the desired benefit.

Try some chicken soup, it will cure anything. Please repost the picture of the John Deer tractor. it is reversed.
I drove a 1939 Model A back on the farm before I went in the Navy in 1955. Fond memories!

Hope you are well by now!
God Bless you.
