Making a DIY Wild Lettuce Tincture - Ann's Tiny Life
Channel: Ann's Tiny Life and Homestead
Date: 2021-07-05

I've become really interested in learning about natural or herbal medicines that can be made from things that you either grow yourself or are already growing in the wild. Today I make a wild lettuce (Lactuca virosa) tincture. Through extensive research I've learned that this plant is not only edible, but can be used to help with pain, anxiety, and insomnia - all of which I suffer from.

I eat wild lettuce as a salad green as well as cook it like spinach and put it in various dishes. It's tasty! I've noticed since I've started using it I tend to feel calmer and get better sleep. Bonus!

But don't take my word for it. Do your own research and find out what I already have about this wonderful weed!
