As far as prickly ash, it is very good for sluggish circulation. And it's warming to the stomach so good for cramps and digestion problems. I believe my problem with cold has to do with circulation, which is why it was a nice tincture for me. Karen, thanks for the tips! Butter and gou teng sounds wonderful!

And I also use the heart-shaped gambir spines (gou teng) which tonify fluids, useful for dry radiator heat in the winter. My son who has spent time in Tibet adds butter. Thanks for your article, and thanks for the inspiration. I think I'll make mulled cider tonigiht. Nice Yael,
