Hey

I have been on the group for a little while.

I wanted to ask you what to do about constant congestion> I haven't done a cleanse yet but what else should I be doing on a daily basis ?

I hock up green stuff every morning; I guess it is coming from my lungs. My n ose always feels stuffy when I first wake up then it isn't as bad for the rest of the day but it feels kind of stuff all day. I feel like something is stuck in the back of my throat.

I started on the TN and Udo's; I am not ready for raw eggs in the drink yet but will get there soon.

What else should I be doing? I know I need to make these tinctures, but I don't really have any extra money right now.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Peace and happiness,

 

Elizabeth Elliott, Birth Doula

 

Elizabeth I forget but have you cut out all dairy, sodas, sugar???

 

These cause mucus to be a big problem for most people. Also I am concerned you may have some type of low grade infection lingering if you cough up green every day???

 

Eat pleanty of garlic, fresh and uncooked, and white onions to help and juice fresh veggies. If you can't afford all organic just wash veggies good and juice them anyway. The juice should be atleast 1 quart per day. You need to flush your system very well!!!

 

This is affordable for compared to the total body cleanse and is easy for anyone. Please don't let your health slip away, I care about you.

I don't drink soda, and I eat some raw cheese but not that often. My down fall is desserts.

My problem with garlic is that people can smell it on me days after I eat it and I wait tables. Any ideas on how to eat the garlic and cut down on odor?

I buy all organic veggies, but don't know if I get a quart of juice in everyday. How much is a quart? 32 oz. ? i probably get in 2024 oz of veg juice everyday. I have recently been juicing fruits as well so I probably am drinking aquart of juice a day just no t all veggie juice.

what about white onions?

i have been coughing this green up for the past two or three years, but no one can figure out waht is wrong with me. i have been trying to get to the root of this for quite some time.it is annoying. i don't feel that bad, it just is annoying and i get tired of it.

when you say plenty of garlic? how much?a couple cloves a day or what?

i am really going to try to eliminate this sugar stuff. i didn't have dessert today and am going to really try to do the no sweets thing. i know it would help me tremendously.

Eat the white onions raw as well as the garlic. I understand your job but garlic just smells and at times we must eat pleanty of it. If I were you I would eat like ten cloves a day, you have a serious problem that needs to be addressed Elizabeth. If you can eat more cloves of garlic a day then do so. Since you are short on funds you have to rely on the healing foods like onion, garlic, cayenne, etc. Have you made the total tonic? That would be excellent for you but take tons of the stuff. What you need is the cleanse but I understand your finances so go for the foods that heal.

 

SUGAR is Soooo bad for you, I know you have a sweet tooth but it has to stop today if you want to get well. Sugar inhibits the immune system and causes all sorts of problems. Especially refined sugars.

 

A quart is 32 ounces. If you can get more fresh juice down than that per day do it. Have you thought about a juice fast??

 

Do you smoke? If so really think about quitting, if your coughing up green for 3 years you have some issues that need fixed and we all want to see you happy and well.

 

Make a large batch of the cultured cabbage juice and drink that, you need the good bacteria my friend.

 

Do you have mercury / silver fillings?

 

Remember these are foods go for it and get as much as possible to help you get better.

 

God Bless,

ALSO Elizabeth stay away from garlic supplements, especially those that state no odor... Garlic is supposed to have that smell, when you start picking apart the way God intended it to be you aren't going to experience the healing you should. Eat fresh.

Well, the first chapter that I have written so far opens with "Dad" in the kitchen preparing dinner. Fresh raw organic veggies. Of course, the main character, the Little Patchwork Ghost, makes all of the cauliflower and broccoli "disappear" before it gets set on the table.

No filliings at all; quit smoking three years ago. It is defnitely the sugar.

I'll start today, esp since I dont' work today. I can add the garlic to juice right?

I will give it a shot next week. I need to do it after the weekend. I tried to do it on a weekend the last time and I flunked out.

Elizabeth,

What else do you eat, drink.. You need to cut out soda, alcohol, sugars, dairy

Sub almond or rice milk, juices, fruits, etc.

drink any water???? need to. preferably distilled ... but add a slice of lemon to your water... also, total tonic will help... when you make it - add a bit more garlic..

A nice small vaporizer or steamer - the kind you can put a pad on top where the air comes out... (walmart)... put ecalyptus/tea tree & peppermint on the pad - use it at nite while you sleep.

A cleanse is in order.... start with the IC #1 and #2 ... or at least try a 3 day juice fast.. (the real juice )

If you dry the "mash" from the total tonic you can use it as herbal snuff... (just a tiny amount) will open the head up and help also..

i don't drink much of anything besdies water. id rink green yerba mate tea every morning. i have been drinking more fresh fruit juice. i made some almond milk yesterday morning; by the way how long will it last? i drink a lot of water but it isn't distilled. it is something called PiMag water from a company called Nikken. I am beginning to wonder if it works. When you drink the distilled, do you put it on an energy plate before you drink it?

 

I will start on a cleanse, you all are sayin this will really help ? when you say snuff, just stick it in my mouth and suck on it like chewing tobacco or what?

is the vaporizer different than a cool mist humidifier?

need to eliminate these?

 

 

Hi Elizabeth:

 

Beer is one of the main culprits for me. I don't drink alcohol, but

even if I use beer as a batter or base for cooking, my sinuses go

haywire. My naturopath told me that it is something to do with the

yeast and something else. I can't recall the name of it, but it's

in most beer.

 

Wine and other alcohol also has tons of sugar and sugar is havoc on

the body. Do you crave these things? I bought that book " Sugar

Busters. " It has a lot of good information on how our bodies come

to depend on it.

 

It might be hard to think of quit completely, but if you do decide

to do the MC next week, I would be very shocked if you did not feel

a difference in your breathing after a few days. The other thing is

some people who are diabetic steer away from the Grade B syrup. I'm

not diabetic, but I don't want the sugar so I use Collodial Minerals

in my Lemonade.

 

Good luck!

is the vaporizer different than a cool mist humidifier? Yep. They're cheap at Walmart...and only about 6" in diameter... they have little pads you can set on the vents... so no more mess with water...and oils...

Beer is bad for sinuses.....congestion.... You can have an occasional glass of wine...red better. Slip ups... I have some.... I'm married to a man that doesn't eat the organic way.. that is why I keep my IC#1 and plant enzymes around... plus an organic grocery store is not real convenient for me so I don't always get my organic veggies and fruit.. so in these cases you make do with the best that is available. (until you can get back to the "good" store....

 

As you cleanse and start "RE-EATING"... you will find some of your cravings won't be there... some will... but your tastes change..

I can't tell you to never eat any thing other than organic, etc... that is a decision you have to make... or that you can never on "rare" occassions eat something sinful... If I were invited to a dinner or whatever, I would take my IC #1 and plant enzymes and then be mindful of what I chose to eat at the dinner, without offending anyone. I can say no to beer and have wine or water with lemon... Instead of french fries, I can have the veggie or ..... get the idea...

Your health and how you chose to live are your decisions alone. And how much you want to improve your health and what you can and are able to do and afford.

Hope this helps

Am I going to have to keep all the food sins out of my diet forever? or just get myself cleaned up and well and then enjoy them on rare occasion?

Hey

 

 

I have been on the group for a little while.

I wanted to ask you what to do about constant congestion> I haven't done a cleanse yet but what else should I be doing on a daily basis ?

I hock up green stuff every morning; I guess it is coming from my lungs. My n ose always feels stuffy when I first wake up then it isn't as bad for the rest of the day but it feels kind of stuff all day. I feel like something is stuck in the back of my throat.

I started on the TN and Udo's; I am not ready for raw eggs in the drink yet but will get there soon.

What else should I be doing? I know I need to make these tinctures, but I don't really have any extra money right now.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Elizabeth,

have you ever given any thought to what may have happened when you started coughing up the "green stuff"? Sometimes things happen in our lives and get stuck in our bodies. When you release this thing, you mayl find that the symptom disappears. For example, I have a client that I was doing some work on for her dog, and in the middle of our conversation she asked me if I could help her with some sinus problems and that she's had these problems since she was about 15 years old. I asked

her what happened to her when she was that age, she immediately said to me, "well my parents made us move". I asked her to meditate on that between the times that we were working on her dog and when she called me to help her. I recieved a phone call recently from her. She said that she did what I asked her to do and since that time, 6-8 weeks have passed and no sinus infection. Sometimes we hold certain anger or other emotions in our cells and our bodies create symptoms to deal with that cell memory. Once released, the body doesn't need to do that.

 

This is not to say that there is not an infection that you are dealing with and there are many herbs that you can use that work wonderfully to eliminate this. Some I'd think about using would be usnea, mullein and elecampagne. I'd also think about doing either a mustard plaster or a ginger plaster over your lungs to help break up this mucous.

Re: Herbal Remedies - Constant Congestion

 

I don't drink soda, and I eat some raw cheese but not that often. My down fall is desserts.

My problem with garlic is that people can smell it on me days after I eat it and I wait tables. Any ideas on how to eat the garlic and cut down on odor?

I buy all organic veggies, but don't know if I get a quart of juice in everyday. How much is a quart? 32 oz. ? i probably get in 2024 oz of veg juice everyday. I have recently been juicing fruits as well so I probably am drinking aquart of juice a day just no t all veggie juice.

what about white onions?

i have been coughing this green up for the past two or three years, but no one can figure out waht is wrong with me. i have been trying to get to the root of this for quite some time.it is annoying. i don't feel that bad, it just is annoying and i get tired of it.

Elizabeth I forget but have you cut out all dairy, sodas, sugar???

 

These cause mucus to be a big problem for most people. Also I am concerned you may have some type of low grade infection lingering if you cough up green every day???

 

Eat pleanty of garlic, fresh and uncooked, and white onions to help and juice fresh veggies. If you can't afford all organic just wash veggies good and juice them anyway. The juice should be atleast 1 quart per day. You need to flush your system very well!!!

 

This is affordable for compared to the total body cleanse and is easy for anyone. Please don't let your health slip away, I care about you.

All I can suggest with the garlic, if it's possible, is to chew some fresh

parsley

as it is supposed to take the garlic smell away from your breath!

garlic...if you enjoy just snacking on it or if you make things with

it?

 

 

Hi Candance,

 

Here is how I use garlic.

 

* RECIPES Instead of using garlic powder or garlic salt (I really

dislike salt), I add fresh garlic (e.g. marinades, stir-fry, etc.)

I made Salmon the other day for Dh and he said it's his favorite

recipe now.

 

* PURGATIVE I have a very difficult time with colon motility. I am

not just irregular. Garlic in the bag helps tremendously.

 

* JUICE I add a few pieces to fresh juices. My father puts the

garlic in a bottle of water and just drinks that all day long. I

don't care for it that way.

 

* TEA I don't use honey or sugar in tea anymore. If I feel any kind

of bug trying to come on, I add a little garlic to my tea.

 

TIPS...

 

One thing I dislike is the smell of garlic and onions on my

fingers. I feel like I reek of it all day. I bought a box of

sterilized gloves and use them in the kitchen for this purpose.

 

I use a lot of garlic because I do almost all of the above things

everyday. It is much easier for me to peel and chop it all at once

and just have it. It gets boring to do it every time I need it. I

never have any left over at the end of the day so I don't worry

about it going bad.

 

Hope this helps,

mjd

I have read (but not tried it) that mixing garlic with chopped pear makes it go down easier

Coat them with extra virgin (cold pressed) olive oil first, then swallow them ;-)

I've done that! But I had a problem with them getting stuck in my throat and starting to burn a bit.

I had to chew them ~makes a face~

Yes, the olive oil will help protect soft tissues from burning. Always take

with food. Your stomach will break it down just fine this way.
