Rose, the original poster carefully stated she only wanted the
information.
But as each respondent edits for brevity, that quickly gets lost.
How can a list like this protect against misinterpretation?

I absolutely agree, or, rather, I think that Period sources are so full
of misinformation {thank you, Rose, for a list I can use as
documentation of that) that they're not worth trying for real-life
healing. 

I am thinking about starting an herb guild in Calontir because of my
concern about people trying Period remedies. (Failures by modern
medicine in no way validate period medicine!)  I see a guild as a means
to transmit the kind of information you just posted.

Do Ansteorran or other herb guild members have advice on that?
