Thank you Zeb,

I have a small garden and only a few herbs. Habanero peppers I haven't heard

of. I will look it up to see if it can be grown in the UK. ..... Bernice

 

Re: Herbal Remedies - Question

 

 

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.

I have a great organic source for habs. If you need some, let me know, and I could probably send you some!

Hi I have a question for anyone who knows alot about herbal in pill

form. I usually order my Shatavari from Herbal Vedic, but this time the

health food store ordered it from Soloray so I had to take it or go two

more weeks without it.

 

On this particular bottle it says Shatavari (root powder) 500mg

(Guaranteed 175mg 35% Shatavarins)

 

Can someone explain the second part to me.. does that mean that only 35%

of the actually pill is Shatavari ?

 

 

thx for any clarification

 

Hugs

Deana

Prozac is not safe in any combination.

 

 

THE STORY BEHIND PROZAC...

the KILLER DRUG

by Thomas G. Whittle and Richard Wieland

In the face of ever-mounting evidence of the dangers of the psychiatric drug Prozac, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has balked at moving against the antidepressant which has accumulated more adverse reaction reports than any other substance in the 24-year history of the FDA's adverse drug reaction reporting system.

Based on documents recently obtained by FREEDOM under the Freedom of Information Act, as of September 16, 1993, 28,623 reports of adverse reactions to Prozac had been received by the FDA. These included such effects as delirium, hallucinations, convulsions, violent hostility, aggression, psychosis, 1,885 suicide attempts and 1,734 deaths - 1,089 by suicide.

27 DEATHS DURING CLINICAL TRIALS

Additional documents obtained under the Freedom of Information Act reveal that both Eli Lilly and Co., manufacturer of Prozac, and officials of the FDA were aware that at least 27 deaths had been linked to Prozac's use before the drug was released. One of the documents shows that as of October 15, 1987, two months before Prozac was allowed on the market, there had already been 15 suicides linked to it - six by overdose, four by gunshot, three by hanging and two by drowning. A total of 12 other deaths are also described in the document, provided by Lilly to the FDA. Despite the startling information about these 27 fatalities - a substance has been recalled from the market (1) with as few as two deaths - FDA officials failed to prevent Prozac from being released. Instead, it was given final FDA approval on December 29, 1987. madam_roply <madam_roply wrote:

You should search for much healthier alternatives, and you can find them in the files.

Well it's the Prozac that's not safe, any chance of getting of it

without offing yourself?

I need things to help with coughs, sleep, breathing and

menopause.

 

I just read in a magazine that sucking on a piece of chocolate stops coughs. Anybody ever hear this? The article said that there is some chemical (I forget the name of it) in chocolate that stops coughing spells immediately. Not a long range cure but might help alleviate the discomfort temporarily.

Aviana,

 

My guess is that it would be pointless to take any herbs or teas ON TOP OF the medications, as very likely it's the medications which are causing the problems you're experiencing.

 

I'd ask Doc for his free tape, and then take him up on his offer of a free consult. I'm sure he could help you with this.

 

love

Lisa

Hello Dawn,

 

I'm new to growing them also, but I have been doing some homework. I have

found out that most are not like planting vegetables. Some need to go

through what is called cold conditioning and take longer to germinate.

Golden Seal (Hydrastis Canadensis) can take between 6 months to 2 years.

Which herbs are you wanting to grow? I'll look in my books for some

information on them.

 

With our Lord's blessings,

 

Doug

Herbal Remedies - Question

 

 

 

 

 

I am wanting to grow herbs in a garden. This will be beneficial to

us since we have 7 in the house and I am always running to the herb

store for something. I have seeds, but will they grow better that

way or do I buy the plants? I toss the ground and use just good

potting soil, someone told me manure. I do not have a green thumb,

but I really could use these plants for remedies around the house as

well as cooking. Can someone help with a little advice. I am new to

this, so I may need to be walked through some. Thanks in advance for

the advice.

You can plant the seeds and if they don't grow fast enough or do well you can

still buy plants later.

Some seeds germinate in a few days some take up to many weeks to germinate.

Hard seeds from long lived plants often take a long time to germinate.

Small (tiny) seeds often need light to trigger germination and are best just

spread on the surface and pressed in.

 

For a beginner grower buying plants is a choice that often works out the best.

A lot of inexperienced people over water. The soil should be allowed to dry out

slightly between waterings when watering mature plants with developed root

systems. However don't let seedling dry out too much because their root systems

are tiny and shallow, but don't drown them. Too much moisture or humidity will

encourage the growth of mold which can kill young seedlings. I wouldn't use

manure for starting seeds unless it was well rotted.

 

Gardening is a wonderful and rewarding pass time.

Have you been to www.curezone.com ? You may find the answer to your problem there. Sounds to me like you may need to do the liver/gallbladder cleanse. I would avoid all processed foods and greasy foods. Also try some Milk Thistle and dandeloin root herbs. These are both beneficial to the liver and gallbladder. So is organic lemon squeezed into distilled water. And a good digestive enzyme would help too. Lynn

well I wouild for sure try not to eat too much or eat the wrong things and that should solve the problem. If you know somehting makes you sick then stay away from it.

 

the keytones comments sounds like he is refering to that silly atkins diet.peessnic wrote:

Been to the M.D., didn't do me any good, as usual. I asked him about getting so, so sick sometimes when I eat too much (or the wrong things, or something). He mumbled something about ketones and walked out the door. I wonder if it might have to do with my gall bladder or liver or something. There is some tenderness in that area. The other day I had a bunch of muscle spasms right about there. Felt like it must have been in the muscle wall, didn't hurt at all, just a lot of fluttering, and now there's a little maybe muscle-soreness there.But I get such a sick headache! So weak, an awful, putrid feeling in my midsection, and it takes two or three days to get back to normal. Been trying coffee enemas lately, and it seems to make it a lot better a lot quicker. Side benefit of that was, after the

second coffee enema in two days, all the asthma-type symptoms I've had for a couple years were gone, and stayed away for weeks.

Doc

handles these situations all the time. I’d suggest doing a total

body cleanse a few times to jump start your thyroid. We have a sweetheart

here name Deana who’s trying the weaning things as well as trying out

some herbal tinctures she’s making. I’m trying to convince

her to do the body cleanses as well as those help you get through the sick

phases without feeling sick. Anyway…

 

Sincerely,

Herbal Remedies -

Question

 

 

I'm new on this list, and I have a couple issues or questions that I

need to have explained.

 

1. I'm on Synthroid 150 mcg. I have been taking this med for

probably 12 years or more. I want to get healthy and be able to stop this

med, but I'm being told by doctor that Synthroid makes your thyroid stop

working. What are the steps I can take to wean off this medicine? I

tried this several years ago, and I became very ill. I was nearly in a

coma so don't want to go through that again. Of course, I wasn't using

any herbs or doing anything healthy at that time. Just decided I didn't

want to take the medicine anymore.

 

2. I have high cholesterol. I'm not taking any medications for this

problem. I have been told that if I do a total body cleanse and eat only

produce that within six months my cholesterol should be better. This I

believe, but I asking for confirmation or if there is anything else I should

do.

 

3. Suggestions on how to stop smoking and drinking coffee?

 

I started eating only organic raw produce earlier this week, and I'm feeling

better. Will start body cleanse when I receive the products.

 

Thanks for any help you can offer.

 

Irene

I just wanted to encourage those of you working on kick starting your thyroid and getting off medication - I myself did this 2 years ago by doing the Total Body Cleanse. I also know 2 other people that did the same thing - got off the medication and got their thyroid working again!! It can be done, so stick with it and good luck!!

I'm back on my prescription med, synthroid. I also take a kelp supplement. Yes, I get all the symptoms you mentioned especially the puffy eyes. I get a fine red rash under my eyes and on the cheeks. I've not had the rash appear on other parts of the body though, mostly under the eyes.

I have that too and I'd be curious if there's anything to help. My tonsils got huge from a bout of strep when I was in the sixth grade. My tonsils never returned to their normal size. Food collects in the crevices and rots and then I have to dig it out. YUCK! I was just thinking about asking the same question.
