Galium aparine
(Kleefkruid)

I like herbal tea. It is good for your health and each herb has its own strength and effect. This herb is good for the internal cleansing of your body. Especially your lymph nodes.

In the past, this was eaten as a vegetable and used in making cheese. This is still possible, but unfortunately most people have forgotten about it and see it as a weed.

(Always be careful about what you eat and how you process it. Know what you eat.)

"We are in a toxic soup of our own making: cultural and chemical. We will not be able to escape contamination. It is well known that pesticides drift. And so do conspiracy theories. And panic. And bad stories. There is RoundUp in our drinking water. Flame retardants in breast milk. The answer is not to try and escape. But, like Pigweed, to send down a deep tap root, and start to chemically, creatively, metabolically adapt. The master’s tools will never dismantle the master’s house, writes Audre Lorde. And pigweed is a tool the master of American Capitalism does not recognize. This tool doesn't dismantle the house. It overgrows it. Digests its stone walls. Grows up through the floorboards."
