Guest guest Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 Jap knotwood grows by waterways and is a plague in some areas. In the UK. Leicester council spent £30000 to get ridd off it. In London where they are building a stadium it has so invaded the ground that it takes a fortune to remove.. Ofcourse that will be pretty contaminated knotweed. I havent seen it where I live yet.

Guest guest Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 Hmh, thanks for the info. Then why are we buying it if it grows so easily?

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2007 Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 That keeps reminding me what Buhner says: that healing plants will 'go'/ grow where people/animals need them !

Guest guest Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 I dug out a Japanese knotweed root; it was a big,chunky hunk like an underground tree root/stem. I also watched voles gently and purposefully harvesting the young knotweed leaves, cutting and slicing neatly, to carry off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 17, 2010 Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 I am just starting to use the protocol and noticed that the Source Naturals Resveratrol recommended by Dr. Buhner does not contain the whole herb as he says in the book - it is now from root extract -I assume they have change the formula since he wrote the book. He indicates that it is important to have the whole plant. Does anyone know a source for tablets/capsules that contain the whole plant and meet his criteria? I don't mind making my own capsules (am doing that with the Cat's Claw) - would that be the best? Thank you for any enlightenment on this.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2010 Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 > > Perhaps, but Buhner does advocate using the herb rather than just an extract, doesn't he? yes, it depends on what 'extract' means. I guess the procedure is not much different from that for making the bulk herb, probably just cleaning and grinding up the root (assuming they don't use alcohol extraction etc. because that is more expensive - that would likely influence the composition).
