Tobacco is a powerful herb that can be both useful and very toxic. Care and common sense must be exercised. And, while I do not advocate its recreational use, it is by no means a bad or evil plant. God made everything and declared it \"good.\" While anything may be misused, nothing in nature should be demonized because of irresponsible or mis-use. Herbs that Heal (Catholic) Home Remedies to Forage and Grow by Judson Carroll , Stephen Cunningham https://sophiainstitute.com/product/herbs-that-heal/?oid=853&affid=281 Also, I am back on Youtube Please subscribe to my channel: @judsoncarroll5902 Judson Carroll - YouTube Tune of the week: I Ain't Got Nobody on guitar I show you how to play a classic early jazz tune that has been a favorite at least since 1914! Emmett Miller had a hit with it in the 1920s, and Bob Wills in the 1930s, Louis Prima in the 1950s, David Lee Roth in the 1980s... and countless others. It has a great rhythm, which I enhance with some western swing style chords for a moving bass line. Then, I teach you a fingerstyle solo/break and give you some ideas to turn this tune into a real showstopper... this one is pure fun!! https://youtu.be/b4Qu2yGuJAc Email: judson@judsoncarroll.com Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/southern-appalachian-herbs--4697544/support Read about The Spring Foraging Cookbook: https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2024/01/the-spring-foraging-cookbook.html Available for purchase on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CRP63R54 Medicinal Weeds and Grasses of the American Southeast, an Herbalist's Guide https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2023/05/medicinal-weeds-and-grasses-of-american.html A…","meta_description":"By special request, I discuss the medicinal properties of tobacco, most of which are topical.
