Dear Susun,
My name is Patricia Hogan and I am a Midwife in Sacramento CA. Years ago I attended a lecture that you gave here in Sacramento. I took copious notes and now am unable to locate them. You were discussing women going through menopause and what their needs might be. I am particularly interested in your recipe for herbal tea high in Calcium. I remember one component was Oat Straw. Would you be so kind as to e-mail me the other herbs that you put in that tea?
I admire your tenacity and longevity. It is great that you continue the message. Thank You.
Sincerely,
Patricia Hogan
Hello Patricia,
Not sure what exactly Susun may have mentioned in a particular lecture - She lists a number of calcium-rich herbs that can be used as infusions, so any of these would be important to include in ones daily diet: Along with oatstraw -- nettle, chickweed, red clover, comfrey leaf and raspberry leaf. She states each cupful will contain 250-300mg of calcium. There is also her Bonny Bony Brew: 1 ounce of nettle, 1 tablespoon of horsetail, 1 tablespoon of sage - again this is an infusion.
Lots of info on calcium in her book the New Menopausal Years. You can also call in during Susun's radio program at blogtalk, each Tuesday from 7:30-9:30pm. Next time will be tomorrow: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/susunweed/2013/08/27/ask-herbal-health-expert-susun-weed
Also lots of good stuff at the online forum: www.healingwiseforum.com
