Nettles are easily removed of their stinging property by drying or cooking. Light streaming even does it

I blanch it and use it as a spinach substitute

So you're saying if I combine raw milk with raw nettles I'll be a god?

You need more rawness but you are close

Nettle tea is also really good for swelling and chronic pain, at least according to my grandfather and his friends that have used it. My grandpa did go to medical school so I tend to trust him, but it was also in the 60s and he calls tattooing and piercings "psychosomatic self flagellation" so take it for what you will.

They are super high in vitamins and minerals. Most wild foraged and grown herbs have more vitamins and minerals per oz than even cultivated super foods like spinach. You can even get most from brewing it in a tea

What kind of streams work best? Gaming streams? Just chatting?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Hot streams mostly. So hot it's boiling. If I would be more specific I would say steam streams.

Or, as I like to call them, steareams.
