🌿Herbal Support for Lupus🌿

Hey friends! I wanted to hop on here and talk about herbal support for lupus. My sister has lupus, and these natural remedies have really helped improve her health and keep flare-ups at bay, alongside exercise, a balanced diet, and healthy lifestyle changes.

💚

Flax, Reishi, and Turkey Tail are powerful herbs/mushrooms play a supportive role in managing lupus. Lupus (systemic lupus erythematosus or SLE) is an autoimmune disorder where the immune system attacks healthy tissues, causing inflammation and damage to various organs.

💚

Here's how you can support lupus naturally:

✨ Flax: Rich in omega-3s, flax helps reduce inflammation and supports heart and gut health. Add ground flax to your morning smoothie or sprinkle on your salad for a nutrient boost.

🍄 Reishi: Reishi supports immune function and reduces stress. Try adding it to teas or use a Reishi tincture for a daily wellness boost.

🍄 Turkey Tail: A potent immune-modulating mushroom, Turkey Tail is packed with antioxidants and can support gut health. Perfect in a mushroom Tincture or as a tea!

🌿 Recipe: Dual Extracted Mushroom Tincture (Reishi & Turkey Tail) 🍄 always use organic

This simple tincture recipe allows you to harness the full benefits of Reishi and Turkey Tail, both for their immune-boosting and anti-inflammatory properties.

Ingredients:

✔️2OZ dried Reishi mushrooms

✔️2OZ dried Turkey Tail mushrooms

✔️20 OZS of 70-100 proof vodka (or another high-proof alcohol)

✔️Filtered water or distilled water

Instructions:

1. Chop your dried mushrooms into small pieces to increase surface area. You can grind them in a blender or coffee grinder.

2. Alcohol extraction: Place the mushrooms in a clean glass jar. Fill the jar with vodka until the mushrooms are fully submerged (20ozs). Seal the jar and let it sit in a dark place for 6 weeks, shaking it gently every few days.

3. After 6 weeks, strain out the alcohol extract using a fine mesh strainer or nut bag, KEEP the MUSHROOMS for next step.

4. Water extraction (Decoction): Take the strained mushrooms put them in a small crock pot, add 8 oz of water, and seep on WARM setting. Strain again and save the liquid.

5. Combine both the alcohol and water extracts and store in a dark glass dropper bottle. This dual extract combines the medicinal benefits of both extraction methods.

Use: Take 2-4 droppers of the tincture daily to support immune health, reduce inflammation, and promote overall wellness.
