i'm gonna have to try this out, there is common nettles everywhere around me now, it would be easy to gather it and dry it out to make proper fresh tea out of

i don't get allergies very badly except sometimes when i eat certain foods, notably commonly from store bought eggs, but my general immune function is always a bit hyper

I would be interested to know if it helps you. Purple dead nettle specifically has more antihistamine than the stinging nettles in my experience. I tired stinging nettles tea with almost no results.

ah, well, i don't see any of this purple one around, it's just the common nettle that you find all over the UK and it's everywhere in the temperate areas of australia as well, definitely green

yeah so it must be kinda rare then i guess

This is what it looks like. An earlier plant to come up in the spring.

Yeah we have it in south west Ohio but sounds like it has spread around a lot. I will have to give it a try.
