Gotu Kola

[Guest guest]

Dear laura,

My dear ............... " . . . before you get upset at something

that someone has posted,

especially if you disagree with what they have said, how about asking

for

further explanation? We're here to exchange ideas and help each other

out,

not get upset because we have misunderstood something someone else

posted. "

............................ABSOLUTELY! One of the problems with list

such as this is one does not know to whom one speaks...

You obvioulsy have all your noodles inthe right place and have

worked out exactly what to do.......

The reason for my caution is that Gotu Kola is a GREAT heb but I,

personally, would not like to recommend it BLINDLY for every single case

of acne/ecxcema etc.......

So, for those on the list who are still learning (myself included) I

posted the cautionary post.

Personally, I usually go in boots first and try everything (but

then - I also surfed 12 foot waves at a River mouth during the hiatus

between two hurricanes on the shark infested African Coast - divinely

mad - as some would say )- and some folks can't swim.........Love Penny

(hoping that June is a bit more cautionary and polite...<grin>)

Dear Cindy,

There are some herbs that are (to be very basic and not get

technical ) " superchargers " . Gotu Kola is one. Echinacea is another.

They are like squirting starter fluid into the engine of a car. It is

needed to start the engien working but, once it is working, let it go

oby itself. Herbs are used to get the Body working onits own. Most

medications bypass the body.

So, for some herbs, we wait for a week and let the body putter along

on it's own.

One can " Swap " herbs. For instance Rubeckia can be used instead of

Echinacea in some cases wher one wants to continue taking a herb. so,

one could use three weeks on Echinace and then three weeks of Rudbeckia

if needed.

but, mostly, Herbalists, if Echinacia isn't working - will look for

why it isn't (like the recipient is taking two gin and it's everyday and

smoking twenty cigarettes per hour./...........Love PEnny

Thanks Penny,

That makes a lot of sense. This herb really has made a

difference in my life. I never took as much as

recommended (several times per day) but even once in

the morning before breakfast really charged me up.

This is the best I've felt in years. Now I guess I

will back off of it and give myself a little rest.

Thanks for the input.

Cindy
