Guest guest Posted June 8, 2003 Report Share Posted June 8, 2003 Suz has asked me for my simple version of the Herbal First Aid Salve. This formula has worked wonders on all kinds of ailments. My son used them on his pimples. Once when I was out of my ear formula, I stuck this in for an ear infection caused by a scratch and it fixed it right up. Once when I was running in a marathon in France, I ran out of deodorant, and refusing to use the store bought stuff used this and it worked wonderfully well. It is a goodie ;o) Love, Doc Herbal First Aid Salve. 3 - Cups of Organic Olive Oil 1 - Tablespoon of Organic Tea Tree Oil 1 - Teaspoon of Organic Peppermint Oil Add the following herbs in a completely dry state only. Remember water and oil don't mix. 1/2 cup of Arnica Flowers 1/2 cup of Comfrey 1/4 cup of Marshmallow Root (either cut and sifted or powdered) 1/4 cup of Calendula Flowers Very important not to get any water around this mixture. Let sit for a minimum of two weeks, and then strain and press. Add an ounce or two of bees wax to stiffen to the consistency you like. This formula is not only good for all the above, but is excellent for cuts, lesions, eczema, poison ivy, burns, hemorrhoids, and bruises as well. Love, Doc Copyright © 1999 by Ian "Doc" Shillington.
