Guest guest Posted July 17, 2003 Report Share Posted July 17, 2003 Yarrow tea will help with the retained water. You need to get off your feet once an a while and elevate them. Heat and constantly being on the run can make you swell (especially humid heat). I think adding cayenne and garlic would be a must. Try making the Total Tonic, it is cheap and easy to make. Keep drinking that clean water.

Guest guest Posted July 17, 2003 Report Share Posted July 17, 2003 Dear Jacqui, Like all the diets out there that have been published, there is a small amount of truth in each one of them. And it's that miniscule amount of truth that hooks us, then lets us down after we fail, and continue looking for that magic bullet diet that is going to make us thin. LOL ) You need to listen to my free cassette lecture if you haven't already. Many of your answers are in there.

Guest guest Posted August 30, 2003 Report Share Posted August 30, 2003 I haven't found you a source yet but this might help. This is the yeast Doc is talking about, I believe. Suzi NON-Active Saccharomyces cerevisiae Nutritional Yeast This yeast is grown on beets and pure molasses. It is the second highest source of complete protein in nature, (50%), and the richest source of B Vitamins. It is also a rich source of Iron and many other minerals. The yeast we choose is heated high enough to absolutely destroy any yeast activity, but not high enough to lessen the B Vitamin content. It is totally NON active and safe for patients with candida albicans or on yeast free diets.

Jacqui relationship of certain types of brain lesions and their cause, and has discovered a clear link to various food additives, which form or contain “free” glutamic acid. These additives, which are used as “flavor enhancers” or “sugar substitutes”, include a host of aliases used by the food industry to disguise their true identity—MSG (Monosodium Glutamate) or Aspartame. Some of these aliases include “autolyzed yeast”, “yeast extract” and “yeast food”. Dr. Blaylock published his findings in 1997 in his best-selling book, Excitotoxins: The Taste That Kills. Nutrtional Yeast doubles as a “flavor enhancer”. Is it because it is a close cousin to MSG and is manufactured much in the same manner, utilizing the same sugar beet and cane molasses?

Guest guest Posted October 11, 2003 Report Share Posted October 11, 2003 Dear Claudette, I understand about the fear of dentists ) The best thing she should do is to start on the Tooth and Gum formula in the files and save the tooth and forget about the root canal. She should also do the Panther Piss formula (also in the files) so that her teeth stop having problems. Love, Doc Ian "Doc" Shillington N.D.505-772-5889Dr.IanShillington - Species2001 herbal remedies Saturday, October 11, 2003 8:08 AM [herbal remedies] Question My friend asked me to look up an herbal Tincture for her called Rock Rose. I went to a couple of sites but they all copied the text and all say the same thing so I promised her I would ask you guys here in the list. The reason she bought this is because she has to go to the dentist to have a root canal and she is scared stiff. They may even have to pull the tooth, who knows? She is hoping that she can find something to help her and trust me, she needs help with this. Something powerful to make the fear go away.Can anyone tell me more about Rock Rose and Doc, can you recommend anything that can help her with this phobia?

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2003 Report Share Posted December 18, 2003 Hi Mary Jane. I've never taken acidophalus capsules, so I don't know how they would mix. But, acidophalus is the live bacteria in yogurt, so could you mix a capsule in yogurt for her? You could dilute it with water if necessary. I know I used to give my child yogurt every day (10cc qid) by syringe through the g-tube. (I gave it to her with meds, not with foods) You could probably fix a batch ahead in the yogurt (plain), figure how many capsules needed to be mixed in the container of yogurt for every 10cc and keep in the fridge, and give whenever is convenient. The acidophallus would live in the yogurt (provided it has live cultures, and is not pasteurized) and be ready whenevr you are. hope this helps! windflower Mary Jane Taylor <gr8mommy22girls wrote: First off... remember my Hannah is tube fed and everything (all meds and herbs) goes into the tube.

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2004 Report Share Posted January 9, 2004 I really don't think that swallowing whole prunes is a good idea. I understand the concept here of the flax seeds and prunes. This would be used for constipation but you gotta chew the prunes. Would be much better if you chewed the whole thing flax seeds and all. Actually, you will want to grind the flax seeds and take them right then to get the most benefit of oil. Or, just buy some quality organic flax seed oil at your HFS and use that. Or buy some UDO's oil. If you don't chew the seeds you won't get anything out of them as they will just pass right on through you.

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 Deb, I have been making boo-boo bags for years. Field corn will stink if used often enough. I like who grain white rice. Try placing a few sacks of rice in a glass jar with lavender oil. Stir everyday and when it has soaked in place in flannel bags. If you do not sew use a cotton tube sock filled 1/3 full of rice. I also find that spritzing them with water before nuking makes nice deep penetrating heat application.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 I soak mine for 9 hours, and then it needs about a day or two to sprout. It is hard to see the little " tails " on the rice grain, but after about 36 hours, they do start to appear. I would think that this would be the soonest after soaking that you could use it. Also, I have found that only organic rice will sprout. I had some exotic red rice and i tired to sprout it...NO GOOD. It just ended up spoiling.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 Caroline, Yes basically like soaking/sprouting other grains and beans. Except i notice rice needs to be rinsed more often if possible, It tends to get sour if you dont. I dont know about drying it and storing it for later use, but i wouldnt see why not? After all the sprouted grain flour is sprouted, dehydrated and then milled, so your suggestion makes sense. Just be sure you dry it really really well as i mentioned rice has a tendancy to want to sour or ferment.

Guest guest Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 Bernice, I'm not sure which ones are truly the most important but I can name 3 that would never hurt for a first aid package. 1. Lobelia 2. Habanero Peppers and 3. Garlic. These three would enable you to do most emergency type functions immediately. Zeb A sort of First Aid Kit of must haves:))Thanks in advance ....
