Team: How many times have you gone out on a hike or camping and you've been caught with altitude sickness, or nausea? Or have you ever had a stomach ache when eating too much wild food (see Tip #2 😬).

Packing dried ginger in your field pack can help with this! Crystallized ginger can be added into a cup of hot water for tea, or sucked on for gut distress. It also is warming, and amazing when you're feeling chilled, just little bits.

We also add dried ginger (it can be bought as freeze dried which is better than powder) to savory meals. Crystallized ginger goes very well if you drop a little piece into a cup of water, a spoonful of coconut milk powder (A MUST HAVE LUXURY IN THE FIELD) and 2 spoonfuls of unsweetened cocoa powder. *Chef's kiss*

What are your favorite food and herb hacks when out in the wilderness?

In this course, students learn wilderness first aid skills and then get to put them to the test under the stress of a lifelike scenario.

Team: In the same way that packing powdered broth

Team: In the same way that packing powdered broth is lightweight, packing dried nutritive herbs to add to your broth goes a long way. (This tip goes in tandem with the herbal powder we make in the wild edibles workshop 😉)

Add your favorite powdering herbs and plants (we LOVE lambsquarter and nettles) and adding it 80:20 to the broth powder is perfection. (80% broth because too much wild food is too much for the gut to assimilate).

What is your favorite herb to bulk up nutrition in your meals? Extra points if you grow them yourself!

Increasing your nutritional intake while camping!

Increasing your nutritional intake while camping!

Team - It can be difficult to drink enough water and to get proper nutrition while camping, backpacking, or in the field. If you carry vegetable, chicken or beef broth powder, you will have a lightweight item in your camp pantry that only needs to be added to water. This can be heated up and drunk on a cold night when you are shivering (that burns calories, btw!!), or you can use the reconstituted broth as the liquid for rice, for pasta, even your "camping meal" packs that require water to re-hydrate them. The broth can also be used as the cooking liquid for meats, which will help them stay a little more tender, flavorful and richer.

Using powdered broth in your pack, You get more nutritional value and also more flavor, which is very important in the field. The body has more nutritional needs, and you will be more active than at home (typically). Another benefit - the powder is very lightweight. You just put it in one of those heavy mil bags (like we use for sending out herbs), and you've got instant options!! Make SURE you are purifying any water you use, of course.

We have a few more tips coming in the next few weeks. Stay tuned!

To learn more about all things nutrition, join us for our Clinical Nutrition class with Dr. Kyla Helm and Sam Coffman where they discuss the foundations of nutrition and incorporating them in an herbal practice.
