How To Make Vitamin Gummies

By
Making your own vitamin gummies is so easy and fun and likely to be enjoyed by the whole family.

I make these on occasion for myself and just love them.  It is good way to add some healthy beef gelatin to my diet. Making the gummies without that vitamin powders can be considered a wonderful supplement as is, but for those who are needing a bit more vitamin C or even Calcium and Magnesium (it is important these two minerals be taken together), adding the powders will give your gummies an extra boost.

The above photo shows the gummies I made using mango juice a few years ago and in the video at the bottom you can see the ones I made using my own grape juice made from my home grown grapes.

Here is what you will need:

* 1 pint organic concentrated, unsweetened fruit juice or even a fruit puree
* 1/2 cup raw honey
* Vitamin or Mineral powders such as Vitamin C,  Magnesium, and/or Calcium - up to a Tablespoon of each

In a small bowl mix together half of the juice with the gelatin and vitamins.  In a small sauce pan mix the honey and the other half of the juice and heat on low, stirring constantly until it is all blended well then add to the gelatin mixture from the bowl into the pan, mixing well and heating until gelatin is dissolved and all ingredients are well blended.

Pour either into either silicone candy molds (as seen in the video below) or a eight inch square, glass baking dish that has been greased with a small amount of coconut oil (which is what I used for the mango gummies in the above photo).  Chill in freezer for 30 minutes or in the refrigerator for a couple of hours.  If using the baking dish, simply cut into squares once set and lift out with a spatula.

    I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
    liver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
    reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
    became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
    ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
    treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
    the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
    treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.

Wooly Lamb's Ear (Stachys Byzantina) is another one of the many multi purpose herbs that the more self reliant types should consider growing if they are not already. If you are already growing this lovely, velvety plant, maybe you can learn something new from this article.   One of my Lamb's Ear plants in my West herb garden The soft leaves make a great bandage because they are absorbent, antibacterial, and antiseptic. They also have anti-fungal properties which is what gives them the ability to help cure candida overgrowth. It can be used to treat cuts, scrapes, burns, bug bites and stings.

The bruised or dried leaves can be brewed into a tea and taken internally to help treat many things such as internal bleeding, soothing sore throats, candida

Marshmallow: Root Harvest and More

We ended up having to dig up one of my marshmallow plants to make room for a post in the garden and this is the first time I have been able see just how big those precious, medicinal roots have become. I have been using the leaves for the past few years as a green in my salads, in teas, soaps, infused oil for my skin cream, and more all while allowing the roots to really develop. Now I can start using those too in my teas and even for making the confectionery treat by the same name. I got all of it dried up on my wood stove and managed to fill well over a quart jar once it was all finished. I found the easiest way was to chop them up, then dry them completely (I use stoneware baking sheets elevated with racks on my wood stove) then process the dried pieces in the blender.    This should last me quite awhile but I have to say, I am tempted on digging up another plant but will probably wait until early fall before the rains come as that is when the roots are most benefici

Grape Leaves Health Benefits and Uses

In the late spring my grape vines around my deck go crazy and end up covering my solar lights within a matter of a few days and then start to shade too much of the plants on my deck so I need to get busy and start pruning them back so my lights and plants can get some sun.  A few of years ago, I had decided to look into grape leaves to find out what uses they might have and was pleased to find they are not only edible, but loaded with nutrients and benefits to health. So now when I prune, I do not just throw out those precious greens, I dehydrate them for future uses! In the summer when I am making lots of vinegar, I like to use the larger grape leaves to cover my fruit and herbs in order to keep them under the water while brewing. A batch of rose petal vinegar just being started They also are great for adding to cucumbers when pickling to help keep them crisp. A batch of my lacto fermented pickles I have added the young, more tender leaves to salad
