HERBS
ARE NATURE’S MEDICINE . . . .
Each family of plants has its own peculiar habit of taking
from the soil a specific group of chemical elements that give it its specific
healing properties. It is the chemical
constituent 'tannin' in herbs like White Oak Bark (main 'natural' ingredient in
aspirin), Kudzu (also used as a soup thickener), Uva Ursi (widely used in UTI's
and many female urinary disorders) that facilitates their tightening (contract
tissue and arrest discharge) action as styptics (stops bleeding) and
vulneraries (helps wounds heal).
When the pancreas are not able to produce sufficient insulin
to convert glucose's sugar into energy in the cells (diabetes), the glucose
then continues to circulate and accumulate in the blood, which can become very
dangerous for diabetics. A number of
organs are affected by diabetes: kidney, pancreas, spleen, liver and gall
bladder. Herbs like uva ursi, parsley root, gentian root, red raspberry leaves,
buchu leaves, saw palmetto berries, kelp and bladder wrack all contain chemical
ingredients that promote the body's ability to reduce high blood sugar.
Spring and Summer seem to be the time for new births, new
Moms and lots of questions about natural remedies for all. Here are a few herbal suggestions for Mom and
babies, from conception, birth, and through toddler-age.
Every young girl starting her menses should start drinking a
cup of red raspberry tea regularly, for the rest of her life – as it will
forever tone, harmonize and 'shore up' her reproductive system. Hot in the winter and as a cool iced drink in
the summer.
Starting from pre-conception, we can use herbs like lady's
mantle, red raspberry, wild yam, cramp bark, damiana, and false unicorn in
various combinations to prepare our bodies for pregnancy, increase fertility
and to secure the fetus in the womb.
To help Mom’s milk flow, herbs like anise seed, blessed
thistle, fennel and parsley (as a hot compress on the breasts) are used.
Catnip has been used to calm nervous/hyperactive children
since ancient times; also to bring relief to babies and young children for
expelling wind, or curing hiccups and stomach spasms (colic), used along with
chamomile, lemon balm, valerian and/or lady's slipper, as relaxers to soothe
their nerves.
Echinacea has great antiseptic qualities as it cleanses the
blood, destroys bacteria and can be used following childbirth to relieve
post-partum imbalances.
MEN'S HEALTH – Prostate cancer is the most common
cancer found in men. There is not enough known about what causes prostate
cancer and how to prevent it. Yet the disease is treatable if found in early
stages. This can be a challenge, since
prostate cancer can show no symptoms until it has spread to other parts of the
body. STAY AHEAD OF THE GAME – GET AN ANNUAL CHECK UP (+PROSTATE SCREENING).
If you begin to feel any of the above symptoms here are a
few herbal tea suggestions (take 2-5 cups daily, for mild-to-acute conditions):
Urinary tract infection: Black walnut bark-1/4pt,
buchu leaves-1pt, chaparral-1/2pt, echinacea-1/4pt, plantain-1pt, wild yam
root-1/4pt, uva ursi-1pt, marshmallow-1/2pt.
Men younger than 50 who have a bladder infection should see
a doctor to determine the cause (since it is so rare). Men over 50 with
recurring bladder infections most likely need to address their prostate health
while also dealing with the acute infection.
Prostate cancer: buchu leaves-1pt, juniper
berries-1/4pt, echinacea-1/2pt, golden seal-1/4pt, chaparral-1pt, kelp-1/2pt,
sarsaparilla-1pt, uva ursi-1pt, wild yam root-1/4pt, yellow dock-1pt,
yarrow-1/2pt, black walnut bark-1/2pt.
Painful urination: buchu leaves-1pt, juniper
berries-1/2pt, marshmallow-1pt, uva ursi-1pt, plantain-1pt, yarrow-1/2pt.
CAUTION – do not take juniper berries if you have any
type of kidney disease or infection. If any of these conditions present, see
your doctor immediately. Continued long term use of these formulas is not
suggested.
