An Alternate Immune Support, Part One

Proof that I need to buy some bigger jars.
I'm always interested in a new way to treat something. I don't believe that the answer to any ailment is a single medicine, and every alternative will have it's own quirks that allow for a healthy personalization of a treatment.

I started an Elderberry glycerite a few days ago. I've never made a glycerite, so I was excited to try. Beyond that I've been wanting to experiment with an alternative to Echinacea. Echinacea isn't strictly good for long term use and I wanted to try something a little bit more gentle. Elderberry is supposed to be a fantastic immune supporter and a mild tonic. It's also a diuretic.

That's all I've got. I'll post again once I've processed the slurry.
