Newsletter #43 Defining From The Forest
January/February 2008
From The Forest began as a learning venue, featuring forays and workshops to help those interested in learning the identification and medicinal properties of plants growing throughout the Rocky Mountain range. It was a simple goal, prompted in the late 70's as a precaution against any FDA action which may have resulted in the removal of herbal products from our grasp. A lot has changed since then.

Newsletter #44 Alder ~ Under-Appreciated & Under-Used
March/April 2008
Before the Red-Winged Blackbirds arrive, before Pussy Willow branches swell and burst with soft, fuzzy gray bumps, the Alder whispers its promise of spring. Long three-inch golden catkins dangle from otherwise naked limbs weeks before the scent of bare earth fills the wet, cold air of April. Alder is filled with healing promises!

Newsletter #45 Making and Using Herbal Infused Massage Oils
May/June 2008
Some oils are heavy and greasy, go rancid, or are likely to irritate skin or cause allergic reactions. Such oils are best avoided. Many commercial massage oils contain varying amounts of these less desirable oils. This newsletter concentrates herbal infused oils, rather than carrier oils to which essential oils have been added. Each recipes is a balance of healing herb and oil best suited for the condition being treated.

Newsletter #52 High Cholesterol
3 page, two-sided herbal newsletter. July/August 2009
After over thirty years as an herbalist I have encountered many very strong, healthy people diagnosed with high cholesterol. Try as they may, many were unable to reduce their cholesterol levels through diet or exercise. In more recent years I have seen strong, healthy individuals become ill as the result of taking prescription drugs to reduce their high cholesterol.

Newsletter #53 Dealing with the Swine Flu
3 page, two-sided herbal newsletter; September/October 2009. Ever since 911 we have been plagued with the 24 hours news media. This has not been entirely good, since the news folks must constantly scramble to come up with “around the clock news” coverage. This has led to a lot of sensationalizing to keep viewers focused on their individual networks. I’m not saying that the “Swine Flu” causing the current media feeding frenzy may not become a health issue. What I am saying is that no one knows for certain whether the Swine Flu will be a serious threat, or not. So let’s take a look at the facts, and then prepare our herbal medicine cabinets for the possibility.
