Elder Folklore

Elder has a long and rich history. Because of the power and respect of the elder it is said that woodcutters used to be afraid to cut it down when clearing land and would recite rhymes and songs to appease the Elder Mother. When an elder planted itself in your garden it was said that the mother was choosing to protect your home from lightening and your cattle from harm.  
 
Native Americans believed that it would heal a person of nearly any illnesses they would ever have. They believed it promoted long life and thus called it an Elder. Many in olden times planted it near their homes to ward off evil. Another interesting lore is that the Celtic people believed standing beneath one on Midsummer’s Eve they would see the King of the Fairies ride by.  It is fitting given these magical visions that it is recommended for the child who is exuberant and has a great imagination but who has difficulty interacting with this world. Its pagan associations were so strong that the Church vilified it by claiming that Christ died on an Elder cross and Judas hung himself on one.  
 
In the Middle Ages, Elder was beloved for its medicine and thus in every monastery garden (in those days monks were the keepers of medicines--herbs--and medicinal knowledge) yet vilified for its pagan power. It is called the Tree of Medicine and also the Tree of Music. The Tree of Music because as far back as the Romans it has been used to make whistles and flutes from its hollowed branches. Its Latin name was chosen for its use in flute making.

Medicinal Properties

Elder flower and berries are best known for their cold and flu fighting abilities. By using them at the onset of an illness studies have shown that it greatly reduces the length of the illness. They are good for soothing sore throats, especially elder flowers steeped in vinegar.   
 
Elder berries help create more productive coughs. Elderberries also increase cytokine production and help strengthen cell walls against viral invaders. Like lemon balm and yarrow elder flowers are a diaphoretic. Elder will produce a mild sweat which helps to sweat the virus out and reduce the fever by opening up channels of elimination through the skin and urinary tract.

My Daughter who is 16years old, has suffered from Vitiligo. She developed this condition at the tender age of 3 years and ever since we have been looking out for treatment that will cure her skin ailment.We tried all the available medicines in Sri Lanka and went from one doctor to another and could not find complete relief from any of the treatments that we sought. We tried western medicines, Homeopathy medicine and finally as if it was a stroke of luck we heard about Dr. Irene herbal, an herbalist doctor from West Africa, Nigeria. who has got dramatic results in treating Vitiligo. Thus, we decided to show our daughter to him. It was a long journey from Colombo to Africa and after consulting the doctor and seeing the pictures of before and after treatment success we felt convinced that he can cure our daughter. So we started treatment and within 3 months we saw unbelievable results from his treatment. Although it was a bit difficult to follow the treatment regimen, at the end of the day we felt that it was fully worth it.Today, I am happy to say that my daughter has got more than 80% re-pigmentation and I am sure if it is not for the breaks of treatment she has to undergo due to various reasons she would have been cured completely by now.I have witnessed many patients who come to Dr. Irene Herbal clinic get very good results and I wish him all the very best in his endeavor to bring relief to the thousands of vitiligo patients. Dr Irene emailed him [email protected] or visit his website: http://www.drireneherbalhomeblog.wordpress.com
