Let’s talk about Borage! 🌿 After 4 kids, I love anything that helps nourish my adrenal glands, and Borage does just that and more! While it treats the symptoms of anxiety, depression, exhaustion & hormonal imbalances, it also helps to repair the damage causes to your adrenals responsible for those symptoms! It’s full of antioxidants and fatty acids, and you can eat it raw or cooked to add a boost to any meal. It can also help stimulate milk production in lactating mothers! What would you use it for? #naturalmama #adrenalhealth #naturalwellness #healthymama #motherhoodunfiltered #momlife #naturalmoms #naturalmom

Borage is an annual herb grown in Europe and the Mediterranean. Borage makes the perfect companion plant for tomatoes due to its ability to repel tomato pests, particularly the dreaded hornworm. Some growers say their tomatoes are much tastier when grown side-by-side borage. Borage should be grown with caution due to its invasiveness and self-seeding. However, the seedlings are easy to identify and remove so it rarely becomes a major problem. Borage leaves and flowers are edible and have a cucumber flavor. Traditionally, borage is cultivated and harvested for its culinary and medicinal values. Borage as a food add it to salads, beverages or as a garnish.
