Guest guest Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Lynda, your best bet for a herbal formula based on moderate-climate herbs is Essiac. Google it for recipes or just get it at many health food stores. .. The original was based on rhubarb root, sheep sorrel, slippery elm and burdock. There are versions that add red clover, and some other herbs and I believe kelp. (can we call seaweed a herb? Who cares, it is good stuff.) Any cancer formula needs to address the liver, and you will notice that many of the herbs you mention are doing exactly that. Milk thistle, red clover, dandelion, blessed thistle, are all good for the liver. Red clover does have a history as a cancer herb. Buckthorn and cascara sagrada are pretty heavy duty laxatives, are you sure you want them? An interesting herb from other climate zones is Graviola. In vitro, that is, in a test tube, it kills cancer cells like nobody's business and leaves healthy ones alone. Ask me privately for an article in Word form. And, don't fret too much about a few weird pap smears. Your body's immune system is quite able to handle a few rogue cells, especially if we don't overwhelm it with fear. Good luck with the herbs, Ien in the Kootenays, picking hawthorne berries*****************************You ought to be Thankful,a Whole Heaping Lotfor the places and peopleyou're lucky you're not!~Dr Seusswho is this Kootenay person anyway?http://www.greatestnetworker.com/is/ien****************************** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Thanks for your helpful reply. I'm familiar with Essiac. Funny you mentioned kelp. A dr. recommended I take Kelp for Hashimoto's disease. re: laxative herbs. Yes I do. I liked what you wrote. Makes sense to me. Lynda http://disabilityinfo.visit.ws.
