Warnings and Precautions About Black Seeds Black Seed, also known as Nigella Sativa and black cumin, has been called the "Blessed Seed" for its miraculous curing ability. The black seed has been called the greatest healing herb of all times by many doctors as it heals all diseases including cancers, diabetes, immune problems, eliminating the flu and colds, acne, muscular dystrophy, back aches, skin and stomach disorders and it increases longevity. As with the flu remedy, the recommended dosage includes the use of garlic and olive leaf. Some dosage requirements suggest one teaspoon of oil compared to eating the regular seeds. Please note that the seeds are the Prophetic medicine, not the oils. The oils were not available 2000 years. The oils are concentrated and more and more people prefer the convenience of the oils, but they must be taken differently than the seeds. Side Effects of Black Seeds There are no known side effects of this miraculous herb, but it is better to take caution here. Warnings of Black Seeds
Methow Valley Herbs: Creating an Herbal Medicine Chest for the Cold and Flu Season (with an introduction to energetics) I know there are lots of articles about colds and flu out there. Unfortunately many of these articles have a this for that approach. Have a sore throat, take this. Have a cough, take that. Have a fever, take this. Granted, this type of herbalism is sometimes successful. We know that not all colds or all the flu are all alike. Prevention Certainly, the best way to prevent colds and the flu is to live a healthy balanced life. Of course food and herbs can have a major role in preventing illness. At our house we love chai teas. Astragalus and Codonopsis Chai 2 parts codonopsis root (Codonopsis pilosula) 2 parts astragalus root (Astragalus membranaceus) one part cinnamon (Cinnamomum spp.) one part ginger (Zingiber officinalis) 1/2 part cardamom (Elettaria cardamomum) 1/4 part clove (Eugenia caryophyllata) 1/4 part peppercorns (cubeb berries are also nice) I make this up in big batches and store it in a jar. I then strain the tea off and pour it into a mug until the mug is 3/4 of the way full.
How I Learned To Fall Asleep In Under 1 Minute I couldn’t wait to put the trick to the test, and to my complete disbelief, I woke up the next morning unable to even remember getting to the eighth second of the exhale because it knocked me out that fast. For the next four nights leading up to the big day, even as my stress increased, I was able to fall asleep the minute I tried the 4-7-8 trick. I also used it to relax in the moments leading up to the speech. When you feel stressed or anxious, adrenaline courses through your veins, your heart beats at a rapid rate, and your breathing becomes quick and shallow. When you first start, you’ll be desperate to just take in another breath, or you’ll want to speed up your counting, but if you stick to the numbers (or at least try to), and don’t take any breaks (in other words, consecutively repeat the 4-7-8 without resuming regular breathing), you can literally feel your heart rate slow down, your mind get quieter, and your whole body physically relax.
IMMEDIATELY IMPROVE BRAIN FUNCTION BY TAKING 2.7 TABLESPOONS OF COCONUT OIL. HERE’S HOW Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs), the primary type of fat found within coconut oil, have been found to boost cognitive performance in older adults suffering from memory disorders as serious as Alzheimer’s — and not after months or even days of treatment, but after a single 40 ml dose! A groundbreaking 2004 study published in the journal Neurobiology of Aging found that the administration of medium chain triglycerides (MCTs), the primary fat type found in coconut oil, almost immediately improved cognitive function in older adults with memory disorders. The study involved 20 subjects with Alzheimer’s disease or mild cognitive impairment who, on separate days, were given either emulsified MCTs or a placebo. The details of the study procedure was described as follows: The study was conducted with a double-blind placebo controlled design with two study visits.

GHS Natural Health Blog By Ron Rosedale, M.D. Presented at Designs for Health Institute‘s BoulderFest, August 1999 Seminar Case Histories By-Pass Surgery First, let‘s talk about a couple of case histories. He was on 102 units of insulin and his blood sugars were 300 plus. To make a long story short, this gentleman right now is on no insulin. High Triglycerides/Cholesterol Patient B is a 42-year-old man who was referred by patient A. This man was told that he had familial hyperlipidema and that he had better get his affairs in order, because if that was what his lipids were despite the best medications with the highest doses, he was in trouble. Whenever I see a patient on any of those medications, they‘re off the very first visit. I should mention that this patient had a CPK that was quite elevated. So, he was chewing up his muscles, including his heart, which they were trying to treat. Severe Osteoporosis Let‘s go to something totally different–a lady with severe osteoporosis.

Healthy News and Information Convincing Reasons To Start Eating Honey and Cinnamon by PAUL FASSA What if I told you there are numerous non-toxic, inexpensive, and effective cancer treatment protocols the medical-industrial complex is suppressing, because cancer treatment is a Big Pharma/AMA trillion dollar cash cow! Dr. John Diamond, M.D. revealed, “A study of over 10,000 patients shows clearly that chemo’s supposedly strong track record with Hodgkin’s disease (lymphoma) is actually a lie. Patients who underwent chemo were 14 times more likely to develop leukemia and 6 times more likely to develop cancers of the bones, joints, and soft tissues than those patients who did not undergo chemotherapy.” [1] Dr. Is real raw honey an effective anti-cancer agent? Big Pharma knows about power of raw honey’s flora-flavones and their ability to eradicate free radicals and bolstering immunity. “Honey is highly cytotoxic against tumor or cancer cells while it is non-cytotoxic to normal cells.

Bear Medicine: Oshá and Sage Infused Honey, by Kiva Rose and Rhiannon - HerbMentor In this recipe, we’ll be looking at the classic and well paired combination of Oshá and Sage, two herbs well known for their powerful healing effects on the respiratory tract. Both are diffusive and warming, with expectorant, soothing, and stimulating effects that make them ideal in situations where there are signs of respiratory congestion, coldness, tiredness, an achy sore throat, and possibly chronic respiratory infection. Oshá, sometimes called “Bear Medicine,” is one the most well known herbs of the American Southwest, and for good reason. The aromatic (some would say stinky) root of the plant is famous for its nigh on miraculous effect on what many call “lung grunge”, or even at the very onset of wet, boggy bronchitis or other wet, cold lung conditions. Omen’s desperate search for this plant in The Medicine Bear to cure Hannah’s pneumonia is no exaggeration, as this is an herb that has long been sought out by those of Indigenous, Hispanic, and Anglo descent here in New Mexico.

HerbMentor News 96: Cramp bark and Ginger Fomentation We are currently studying cramp bark on HerbMentor.com. As the name strongly suggests, this herb is fabulous for stopping cramps. It works well for muscle cramps, like when you throw out your back, menstrual cramps or even restless legs. After reading this article I’ll bet there will be a few of you out there thinking, “Why go to all the trouble? Why not simply pop some ibuprofen?” Most people tend to think of over-the-counter medicines as being safe. I don’t know about you, but that doesn’t feel very safe to me! Cramp bark (Viburnum opulus) can be a reliable and safe alternative to NSAIDs. In fact, cramp bark is used for the following issues: menstrual cramps, muscle cramps, early labor, miscarriage, pain, difficulty urinating, bowel cramps (IBS), diarrhea, child enuresis (bedwetting), spasmodic coughing, asthma, arthritis, muscle strain, seizures, high blood pressure, and lockjaw (interesting historic use). I often reach for cramp bark when I’ve got back pain. I have, countless times.
