Witch hazel has been in the pharmacist shops for over 150 years, and likely much longer than that.
It was discovered that distilling witch hazel, and making a water, or sometimes a tincture added to water, and then applied to the face and the skin can reduce inflammation, irritation, and help remove itching from bites,stings, and burns. What a beautiful old fashion, and yet thoroughly modern, herbal ally!
I recommend Thayer’s alcohol, free, witch hazel water.
This preparation has been on the market since the mid-19th century!
Full disclosure I have no financial connection to Thayer.

Giant fluffy flakes. I know to quite a few of you. Snow is no big deal, but here it is a huge rarity!

Gilled turkey tail is often found on dead logs nearby true turkey tail or false turkey tail.
They can be used the same way as true, turkey tail. They have a lot of immune activating, beta glucans, immune, activating, chitin, and good nutrition. All it takes is boiling it down in a pot or a pressure cooker, blending with the cooking water, and dehydrating to it a driveway for in a food dehydrator finally pottering that and storing in a jar for up to three years add a half teaspoon or a teaspoon to soups or other dishes for a nice mushroom flavor, immune support, and many other benefits.
See my book medicinal Mushrooms the essential guide for more information.

True turkey tail and false turkey tail often grow together on dead logs in many parts of the world, in a forest near you even. Maybe even in your backyard, or in your fruit orchard. Based on their clinical trials and long history of use, they are likely the most valuable of all medicinal mushrooms.
Of all species of mushrooms, they contain the highest amount of immunomodulating, beta glucans, as well as prebiotic fiber that will help diversify your gut microflora, benefiting your mood, immunity, and cognition.
Either species works, both are non-toxic. But use true turkey tail over the false turkey tail because of its long history of use; still in a pinch you can use false turkey tail.
Check my book, medicinal mushrooms, the essential guide for more information. It’s fantastic to make a concentrated water-based powder for long-term storage to add too many types of dishes. Really the best kind of food medicine from the forest.
