Serpent medical companies process mass quantities of plant material every day. This is why they use the FDA to police truth and spread disinformation. They ban plants because they make drugs out of them and don't want you to have the natural safe God made seed bearing herb. https://botanicalguides.com/wild-yam-dioscorea-dregeana.html Birth control medicine is made from the wild yam plant ( Dioscorea dregeana ). Cold medicine is made from Ephdra sinica, opium is extracted from poppies, mucinex is made in the likeness of a chemical in plants called mucilage, over the counter products like Listerine work because of menthol extracted from peppermint, etc. Scientist don't want to give God credit, they just want to lobby to oppress these natural remedies so only they can get their hands on them, then them and their buddies sell you products made from these cures, and then taint them with toxic fda approved additives. #birthcontrol #prolife #herbs #africanplants #ethnobotany #ethnobotnaicals

From Peru to Pompeii: What everyone needs to know about the Amazon

https://vimeo.com/478652285

In this webinar, ethnobotanist Dr. Mark Plotkin talks about his groundbreaking work with the Amazon Conservation Team (ACT) working with indigenous colleagues to protect nature and culture in the Amazon. To date, ACT has partnered with over 55 tribes to map and improve management and protection of over 80 million acres of ancestral lands. Activities range from ethnographic mapping to creating Shamans’ Apprentice clinics to establishing an Indigenous park guard force to sustainable harvesting and marketing of non-timber forest products. Dr. Plotkin will also talks about how local knowledge and biological diversity continue to impact the 21st century, from the rainforest to the vineyard.

“The greatest and most endangered species in the Amazon rainforest is not the jaguar or the harpy eagle,” says Mark Plotkin, “It’s the isolated and uncontacted tribes.” In an energetic and sobering talk, the ethnobotanist brings us into the world of the forest’s indigenous tribes and the incredible medicinal plants that their shamans use to heal. He outlines the challenges and perils that are endangering them — and their wisdom — and urges us to protect this irreplaceable repository of knowledge.
