PROTECT YOURSELF AGAINST THE BIRD, SWINE FLU OR ANY FLU OR COLD
From the copyrighted works of Dr. A.B. Howard

Keep the trash cleaned out of the body. Don’t give the virus or germs a place to live. Keep the bowels clean. Please promote and allow at least two and
preferably three easy and complete movements per day. Use one to four capsules of CASCARA SAGRADA capsules each night. Start with one capsule and increase if needed. If you prefer you can use one teaspoon of C.C.E.-W each evening.

TO GET RID OF VIRUS, FLU AND COLDS:
Do not let your body become dehydrated. Always keep your body well supplied with plenty of natural vitamins, minerals and trace elements. Take one
teaspoon of FORMULA MAX or FORMULA M three to four times per day. Drink plenty of real juices and spring water to flush out poisons, nourish and prevent dehydration. PEPPERMINT TEA is great for upset stomach. One teaspoon of PEPPERMINT EXTRACT to a cup of hot water. Also, use I.V.-H (Infection and Virus) for relief of flu suffering. Take one teaspoon two to three times per day.

GET PLENTY OF REST.

Rest is a medicine. Christ said it best. “Come all ye unto me are burdened and heavy ladened and I will give ye Rest.”

Many of us suffer from hurting, aching, stabbing joints. It can be so bad it becomes a form of torture and keeps us from our normal life activities. It can hit us anywhere we have joints; knees, shoulders, elbows, fingers, neck, back, toes and you name it. You may have been told it is “normal” to have problems like that. This is not true. You may have been told, “It is just because you are getting older.” This is not true either. But when you are in pain you don’t want a lecture about diet or stress. You want relief now! This is easy to understand. You don’t care if the relief is from an over-the-counter drug or a doctor’s drug or his needle as long as you can get rid of the pain. Ever since we lived in caves and right on up till now we have craved a workable non-drastic solution. Now there is one. It is an herbal solution. It is called JOINT HELPER! For your convenience JOINT HELPER IS A ROLL-ON. What does it do? It is a herbal combination that you apply externally which penetrates deeply and immediately for relief of joint discomfort. Where did JOINT HELPER come from? It was there all the time in the herbal world. How was it discovered? It came from the condition of suffering and the sheer necessity to find a natural solution. It came from a deep and abiding faith in the herbs and years of development. From this came the final product called JOINT HELPER. What is in it and how do the ingredients work? It contains Capsicum for circulation, Arnica to erase effects of pain, Witch Hazel to repair, Peppermint Oil for penetrating cool, Indian Tobacco to relax, Horsetail for flexibility, Sweet Cassava Starch for body, Coconut Oil to nourish tissues, Lecithin to coat nerves, Xanthan Gum for consistency, Glycine Amino Acid, protein as a lubricant, Honeysuckle as scent and Purified Water for liquidity. How do you use it? You simply roll it on the hurting joint areas as directed. Within seconds or minutes you will feel it start to work and give relief. You may feel heating or cooling or electrical sensations. Or you may feel any combination of these at the same time. You may have different sensations according to what your joints want and need. The effects can last for several minutes or several hours. This varies with the person. You may have to use more or less on certain joint areas depending on what condition they are in.

TESTIMONIALS
Have you ever had your lower back go out? Mine did. I was just bending over watering the flowers. I felt a snap and then I couldn’t walk right or stand without pain. This had never happened to me before. I started sweating from panic and then anger that my body had somehow betrayed me. Then I felt very alone and helpless. Was I going to be like this from now on? A thousand things went through my mind in hurry. None of them good. In sheer desperation I remembered the sample of JOINT HELPER that had just been given to me. Somehow I got into the house and got the JOINT HELPER and put a lot of the ROLL-ON down my lower spine and then from side to side over the back of my hips. First it felt soothing, then cooling, then the heat and tingling kicked in. In a short while I could walk again without pain. I couldn’t believe it! The JOINT HELPER keep working on and off for hours. For the next three days or so every time I needed the JOINT HELPER, I used it until I didn’t need it anymore. Now I carry it with me just in case. G.W. Sterling Hghts., MI

JOINT HELPER is not just for joints. I got a Charlie Horse (cramp in the calf of my leg) while sleeping. The cramp was so bad my leg muscles still hurt the next day. It was difficult to walk. So I put JOINT HELPER on it. One use of the JOINT HELPER ROLL-ON was enough to fix it. Thanks for a wonderful product! B.J. Mt. Clemens, MI

Our friend’s mother has suffered with arthritis for many years now. She heard about JOINT HELPER and tried it. She rolled it over the areas that hurt the most and then the rest. The Next day she said, “In all my years of suffering nothing has ever given me that much relief and I’ve tried it all. Send me a dozen ROLL-ON bottles!” A.P. Bay City, MI

My wife has screws in her back bone from an operation and is in more or less constant pain. She decided to try JOINT HELPER ROLL-ON over the whole area. She said, “It helped me more than anything else I have used to get some peace and relief from the discomfort I suffer with.” J .D. Royal Oak, MI

DIRECTIONS:
Apply roll-on to sore joints as directed.
When using JOINT HELPER do not be alarmed if you feel JOINT HELPER heat up and re-activate again the next day. It may still be on the job. If contact with eyes or private areas should occur, flush with water, remain calm and peace will return. Keep out of reach of children.

LECITHIN

225 capsules/bottle

LECITHIN (less’-uh-thin) is needed so the body can work. A healthy normal liver with a good diet naturally makes LECITHIN. Lecithin is a sticky yet slippery liquid that looks and feels like a cross between a medium heavy oil and a non-sweet syrup. LECITHIN dissolves fat into very tiny drops. It also dissolves cholesterol into very tiny drops. Then the body uses the fat and cholesterol as food and to make hormones. Yes, LECITHIN also dissolves cholesterol into very tiny droplets. This is wonderful because then the cholesterol does not build up into harmful, clogging deposits in the arteries and veins and other areas. Put simply, if you have no LECITHIN, no usable cholesterol and no digestible fats then you have no hormones. People must not have enough LECITHIN these days because so many people have too much un-dissolved cholesterol and run out of hormones far too soon. Either their liver is not working right or their diet is lacking in enough digestible Vitamin B complex vitamins, or both things are happening. LECITHIN is not dangerous. It is a nutrient made by the liver from basically two of the B complex vitamins and other very common ingredients. LECITHIN is also vital to coat and insulate the nerves and brain and keep them from "shorting out". Lecithin is the basis for a fluid that helps the brain and nerve cells to talk to each other. LECITHIN is needed by every tiny living cell in the body as part of the covering around the cell. It keeps the cell coverings (membranes) soft and able to use fats and cholesterol. The liver and gall bladder demand LECITHIN. It keeps them from being congested and it decongests them. The reproductive fluids of the body are made up of LECITHIN to a great extent. The filters in our kidneys use LECITHIN as a coating to prevent irritation and stay in good repair. It's probably safe to say, science will one day discover many other vital functions which LECITHIN performs.

Dosage: Two or more capsule of LECITHIN, derived from soybeans, per day or as advised by your doctor or natural health care provider as a dietary supplement derived from soybeans.

Child Dosage: One or more capsules of LECITHIN, derived from soybeans, per day or as advised by your doctor or natural health care provider as a dietary supplement derived from soybeans.

M.Y.O.-C

Muscles Young and Old: by Pat Courter

The need has always been there to have an herbal formula with the goal of producing strong health performing muscles at any age. There is a need to develop and promote strong muscles that will hold the bones in their proper places. And now we have it. It is called M.Y.O.-C (Muscles, Young and Old) designed and developed by practiced herbalist Pat Courter of Texas.

This formula is designed to provide muscle and connective tissue elasticity, endurance, balance, muscle mass, stamina, oxygenation, strength and increased circulation. To make this formula work it uses the full spectrum of strength the Creator gave to leaves, berries, roots, fruits, grains, stems and legumes. (Legumes are plants that capture nitrogen from the air and make natural fertility).

If you have hard work to perform and want to get stronger and instead of tearing yourself down, consider using this on-the-job-tested-formula. M.Y.O.-C can also be used to repair and revive muscles, maintain muscular strength and/or improve muscular performance.

With continued use of M.Y.O.-C people speak of a vibrant condition with better muscle tone and less sagging. We hear that muscle pain is decreased, sleep is deeper and better, long road trips are easier, strength is returned to the muscles, exercise is now rewarding for me. For the results you want, increase your activity with M.Y.O.-C and move the body around each day in some way, work, play or walk. Daily engage in some activity where you get the body moving.

COMBINATION: Broad Beans, Saw Palmetto, Barley, Peppermint Leaf, Sarsaparilla, Sesame Seed, Papaya, Horsetail, Flax, Mugwort, Black Walnut Meats, Oriental Mustard.

INTERNALLY: 90 drops 3 times a day for solid, quicker results, 60 drops 2 to 3 times per day for maintenance.

EXTERNALLY: After work or competition, lightly apply the herbal formula Big Five Plus Two or other herbal formula containing the herb Arnica, then generously apply the M.Y.O.-C formula.

CEDAR BERRY

Single-Seeded Cedar Berry

(Juniperus monosperma)

The Cedar Berry tree is a needle bearing tree and an evergreen that lives in the American Southwest. Think Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Colorado and you have the picture of where it is at home. It is a tough, hardy competitor able to persist on poor soil where other trees can not. It ranges in size from that of a shrub to up to 30 feet tall if it has enough water and better soil. "Out West", its common name is the " Single-Seeded Cedar Berry" tree. There are two kinds of Cedar Berry trees. One kind has the female flowers on it and the other kind has the male flowers on it. The flowers on the female trees produce a small waxy seed pod with a single seed in it. That is the part which we use.

Under the stomach and liver is a carrot shaped organ/gland called the pancreas. It empties its digestive juices from its blunt end into the small intestine. This is very important to the digestion. When the pancreas itself gets sick, you need a no nonsense remedy. We use the seed and its pod from the Cedar Berry tree for that purpose. This remedy was found out of sheer desperation by Dr. John Raymond Christopher from Utah after much prayer and fasting. His search was for something to repair a pancreas that had "bad cells" in it. This is a very serious condition because the pancreas is the main digestive organ and normally eats up any "bad cells" that occur in the body. You can imagine the panic, if the organ you rely on to eat up malignant "bad cells", is itself being eaten up. In practice he proved the value of this remedy of the Single-Seeded Cedar Berry and shared it with all of us. Along with this remedy, he gave us the wisdom to restore the function of the pancreas so the pancreas will eat up the "bad cells" in itself and anywhere else in the body.

DOSAGE: 1 teaspoon per meal.

Note: As always make sure there are two or more bowel movements per 24 hours so that debris can be removed from the body.

REMEMBER WHEN

RESTORING YOUR MEMORY

If your memory is slipping or has slipped, you had better do something about it! If there are emotional problems affecting your memory go to your minister, priest or spiritual counselor and unburden yourself. In order to fix the brain and physical part of the problem read on. For centuries, the elephants of Ceylon (see-lon) south of India, achieved fame for their excellent memories. What do they do different from other elephants? They eat the leaves of a little water lily known as GOTU KOLA (go-to-kola). We can also use the leaves of the male and female GINKGO trees, which are known to increase the blood flow and circulation to the brain. Taken on a regular basis these two herbs, GINKGO and GOTU KOLA, seem to do a pretty good job of bringing back the long term memory in great detail. The memories of past events that return may be even better in terms of details such as color, sound, touch, taste, etc. than when they happened. For the short term memory use the two herbs: BLADDERWRACK and CHLORELLA (klor-ella). BLADDERWRACK is a sea vegetable and storehouse of minerals, vitamins and valuable trace elements. You may have read that aluminum has been implicated in Alzheimer’s Disease. One of BLADDERWRACK’S many abilities is to bind with the metal aluminum and usher it out of the body. Aluminum, unfortunately, is found in many things from baking powder to soda pop cans. It is added to many dried foods for the sole purpose of keeping them from "caking up" or sticking together. Another way aluminum enters the body is through the use of some underarm antiperspirants. When you get the inorganic aluminum out of the body, it helps to restore the nerves, glands and brain function. Use the plant CHLORELLA to get rid of mercury and heavy metals. CHLORELLA is not a sea vegetable, but rather a part of that golden colored algae you see in summer ponds. It is a very nutritious single cell plant that looks like a tiny gold dollar under the microscope. This plant has the marvelous ability to pull poisonous heavy metals, such as mercury and lead, out of the nervous system. In this day and age, with the coal burning power plants generating electricity and in the process putting a lot of mercury into the water supply, it would be a good idea to take preventative measures. After all, we use this water to bathe in, cook with, grow our fruits and vegetables and it also gets into the fish we eat. You may have heard that mercury is known to destroy brain functions. Contrary to what you have heard, brain and nerve cells do regenerate themselves. Get the poisons out by eating right and then watch the repair take place. Keep in mind, when poisonous metals leave the nervous system, a poison antidote herb such as BLACK COHOSH should be used to counteract the feeling of agitation during the cleaning process. Also, use WORMSEED to correct and counteract the effects of many kinds of strokes which may cause memory loss. We have now joined these proven and tested herbs together to create the formula, REMEMBER WHEN. Finally, eat right, and get the "junk food" out of the diet!

DOSAGE: One tsp. or more per meal. Persist as long as it takes to repair, regenerate and restore both the long term and short term memory. Also, for a preventative and maintenance amount: 80 drops per day.

COMBINATION: Gotu Kola, Ginkgo, Bladderwrack, Chlorella, Black Cohosh, Wormseed.

TART CHERRIES

TART (sour) CHERRIES contain among other things something called MELATONIN (mell-uh-tone-in). This is a substance normally made by a gland deep in the back of the brain known as the pineal (pi-nee-al) gland. The name pineal refers to its shape which is roughly like that of a pine cone. The gland is even more interesting when you learn that it contains cells similar to the cells of the human eye. The pineal gland also contains crystals. Medical text books often refer to these crystals as "brain dust." It is believed by other fields of study that both of these structures are activated in some way by light. But, lets get back to the discovery of Melatonin being found in tart cherries. On a physical level, adequate Melatonin has long been recognized as necessary for a good night’s sleep. Even more important, Melatonin is believed to be responsible for the proper functioning of our biological clocks. These are the living clocks in the brain that time the process of hormone production in our body, as well as other functions. This function is fairly important. It is believed that the presence of Melatonin plays a large role in the aging process of the human body. At this point it may help to look at turtles for comparison. There are no senior citizen homes, prisons or insane asylums for turtles. Turtles continue to be active and behave as turtles ought to for the duration of their life. In addition to that, no matter how long they live they do not stop their sexual functions nor do they stop producing young for as long as they are alive. This is probably the way the human body should function too. But, we seem to run out of Melatonin and therefore cannot continue to produce hormones. We used to be told that only chemists in laboratories could make the additional Melatonin needed by the brain. This synthetic type of Melatonin in tablets was supposed to do what natural Melatonin was meant to do. On the whole, the results were wishful thinking. The Synthetic product was missing something to govern and ensure its true intended function, in the human body. This is what happens when pharmacists and chemists presume to improve upon the Creator’s gifts and say they are producing "health foods" Unfortunately, there is always something slightly wrong or more than slightly wrong with synthetic products. Our greatly educated college and university graduates know many impressive facts, but they fail to understand something very simple. The "life force" that creates something alive is missing from something that is synthetic. What our Creator makes is endowed with life; what the chemist makes is dead! The question is, "which would you rather eat?" But wait there is more. In addition to a rich supply of Melatonin, Tart Cherries contain compounds called ANTHOCYANINS (ann-tho-sigh-ann-ins). Natural food researchers, at Michigan State University, have shown these anthocyanins to work ten times better than aspirin to reduce swelling and discomfort. These same anthocyanins are also shown to be more effective than Vitamin C and Vitamin E in preventing plaque "junk" from clogging up our arteries and heart. Want some more good news? Tart Cherries have also been shown to be extremely effective in shrinking tumors! There is even more good news Tart Cherries also taste pretty good, a lot like my mother’s cherry pies when I was growing up. The most sought after Tart Cherries are named Montmorency and grow in the northern "little finger" area of Michigan, known as Traverse Bay, on Lake Michigan.

DOSAGE: As a natural source of MELATONIN for the conditions listed above take 40 drops to one teaspoon full of the liquid extract Tart Cherries three times per day, depending on the severity of the condition that needs correcting. To sleep better, be patient, it may take up to one month before you notice results. Repairing the sleep machinery in the body, may take that long before it can be activated.

BITTER ORANGE

If you want to breathe easier when troubled by allergies, hay fever, pollen, pollution, emotional upsets, bronchitis, asthma or the other torments that cause a restriction to your breathing, consider using the herb, Bitter Orange. As a bonus you may find your energy levels, concentration and circulation are better with the use of Bitter Orange. The scientific name given to the most common type of Bitter Orange, in use by herbalists, is Citrus aurantium. The Bitter Orange is especially prized for the problems we seek to correct. Although it is called Bitter Orange, its immediate taste could be described as a pleasant taste of orange with a little bit of bitter chocolate taste at the end. Altogether, it’s not bad. Bitter Orange, as a plant, was at home in China originally, but now grows wherever the climate is warm and friendly enough. This gift from the Creator has been in continual use along the trade routes of the Arabian traders since the 16th century. You can say it has been adequately "field tested"! In those parts of the world Bitter Orange is considered a good and is eaten in small amounts as needed. Those who need and use this herb seem pretty satisfied with it. Bitter Orange is one representative which has been repeated by enlightened practitioners down through the corridors of time. The idea is: "We should let our food be our medicine and our medicine be our food"! Modern science has studied Bitter Orange to find out what is in it and why it works so effectively. What they found is that it contains, among other compounds, a bitter stimulant known as synephrine (suh-nef-ren). These compounds work together to open troubled breathing passages and increase physical activity without side effects! This is a God-send for those suffering with breathing and circulatory problems. You may have to wait a few minutes after taking Bitter Orange before you get its full effect. Please Note: Some people use Bitter Orange to assist weight loss by taking advantage of its stimulant qualities. If so, this property should not be abused any more than one would abuse coffee or tea for that purpose. There is a difference between use and abuse and a person does know the difference. Additionally, experience with Bitter Orange from South American folk usage indicates to use it when there is trouble sleeping and for frazzled nerves. Traditional Chinese medicine also uses Bitter Orange for indigestion, constipation and abdominal discomfort. American folk use says: "For the desperate and adventuresome with trouble breathing, spray Bitter Orange extract directly into the throat with a clean perfume atomizer (mist sprayer) and inhale." Relief is swift and in some cases it may cause a violent discharge of thick mucus for two or three days, which when endured, can stop future attacks.

DOSAGE: 40 drops under the tongue as needed.

WINTERGREEN OIL

When we say WINTERGREEN we mean any of many small, hardy evergreen herbs about 6 inches tall or, if you prefer, 15 centimeters tall, that grow as a kind of ground cover. It is found in abundance in the North Eastern region of North America (U.S. and Canada). The best known type of Wintergreen has the scientific name of (Gaultheria procumbens). Wintergreen has leathery, green, broad leaves and loves to grow as a thick carpet in the partial shade of the woods in its rich earth, but can be found on open ranges too. Its most common name of Wintergreen is surely due to the fact that in the Winter its leaves can still be seen to be alive and green. Its white bell-like flowers produce edible scarlet red berries that taste spicy and refreshing with a texture somewhat like a moist, ground up nut or grain. Contained within the entire plant is an ache and discomfort relieving compound similar to aspirin. The chemical name for this compound is salicylate (suh-liss’-uh-late). The natural oil from the Wintergreen plant is almost 98% salicylate in the form of methyl (meth’-ul) salicylate. It is found in a surprising number of places in every day life, classified as a flavoring agent. For example, widespread use is made of Wintergreen in toothpaste, common beverages such as root beer and Coca Cola and chewing gum.

When you go across the sea to England you will find Wintergreen Oil is currently recognized in their official medical book, the British Herbal Pharmacopoeia (farm-uh-ko-pea-uh) as a specific remedy for rheumatoid arthritis. That means if you have joints, muscles and tendons, bones or nerves that hurt and you put Wintergreen Oil on the area externally, it fixes it. Wintergreen works in two ways, one way is to quickly relieve discomfort and the other way is to break up the uric (your-ick) acid or other deposits. Then the body can flush them out. This is why we say you should also drink a large glass of clean natural water. Even better, you can drink a diuretic (die-you-ret-ik) tea. This is a tea which will encourage the kidneys to go to work. As examples, try Peppermint tea or Alfalfa tea to flush the crystals and wastes out of the body that the Wintergreen Oil breaks loose. It should also be mentioned here that this new disease you hear so much about called fibromyalgia (f-eye-bro-my-al-gee-uh) is very similar to what used to be called by the old fashioned word "rheumatism" (roo-muh-tiz-em). It just so happens that Wintergreen Oil can be used externally for rheumatism with pretty good results. The people of England were not the first to discover Wintergreen. Our American "Indians" or first Americans knew this plant well and appreciated it for the taste of its refreshing berries. They lived basically outside without our modern heating. This can be a real stress on the joints. You can believe they gave thanks for the boiled tea of Wintergreen to relieve the torment of rheumatism. They not only drank the tea to treat coughs loosen mucus and relieve discomfort, they wrapped body parts with it as well. The natural oil is seldom used these days because there is a synthetic oil which is so plentiful and cheap. Herbalists however demand the

natural and enjoy its added benefits even if it does cost a bit more. The natural plant oil has control mechanism built in to it so you don’t have to worry so much about side effects. Wintergreen Oil is used mainly externally, although a small amount can be brushed on the tongue as needed. Here is a list of the observed effects ascribed to the Wintergreen Oil down through the ages.

As stated, Wintergreen Oil is a pain reliever. It handles swellings and can be rubbed on rheumatism areas for relief.

Apply to the chest to break up mucus and brush a little on the tongue.

Wintergreen Oil "tightens" or tones living tissue.

Wintergreen Oil is also a non-habit forming stimulant.

CHLORELLA

Chlorella is a microscopic green miracle plant which helps to get pesticide poisons out of the body. The poisons bind to the undigested cell walls of chlorella after we eat it and are ushered out of the body by way of the bowel. In this way lead, cadmium and other heavy poisonous metals are dumped. We spray pesticides on our foods to kill weeds and bugs to keep them from crowding out or eating our foods before we can get them. Then when we eat it we get some of those pesticide poisons ourselves. This is how we can expect to contaminate our liver, encourage the growth of "bad cells" , disrupt the development of children in the womb, suppress the function of our dis-ease defenses (white blood cells and lymph node cells, for instance) and mess up our skin and eyes. Chlorophyll (plant blood) all by itself helps eliminate a whole family of petroleum based poisons called di-oxins from the body by encouraging bowel movements. The concentrated source of chlorophyll from the fresh water plant chlorella (an alga) does an excellent job of this. Chlorella is so nourishing it is the basis for an entire food chain. This life-sustaining plant could be called the "grass of fresh water". More to the point, it is a fairly complete food source in and of itself, including vitamins. There are at least 20 different types of chlorellas. We chose a thin walled chlorella for the job because it is easier to get at the digestible part and then we go one step further and make a liquid out of it that goes more or less directly into the blood stream. A vital point for vegetarians is that chlorella contains vitamin B-12. If you are feeling puny and don’t know why and want to perk yourself up, sometimes a good slug of B-12 from a plant such as chlorella each day will do the trick. Your liver will love you.

Dose: 1-3 teaspoons per day.

SUTHERLANDIA

The desert herb Sutherlandia has the scientific name of Sutherlandia frutescens and is also known as Kankerbos, belbos, bitterblaar and gansies in South Africa where it is at home. In English people also call it Cancer Bush. It is a medium sized shrub with green leaves and bright red flowers. Parts used are above the ground: leaves, green stems, flowers and seeds with pods.

WHAT IT DOES:

SUTHERLANDIA seems to be an herb which mainly improves the workings of the immune system (bone marrow, thymus gland, liver, lymph nodes, spleen and other parts of the body). It assists the body to root out and clean out viruses wherever they may be in the body, no matter how long they have been at their destructive work. What is surprising is just how many problems may be caused or aggravated by viruses and their poisons.

WHAT IT WORKS ON:

Once body cells are weakened by something such as poor diet, poor bowel functions, harmful medications, emotional upsets, overwork, or other types of "stress" (stress = anything that threatens your survival), "disease" organisms can move in to work their mischief. One of those "disease" causing organisms is known as a virus. It is smaller than a germ, fungus or parasite. It takes over the machinery of a living body cell, perverts it and makes poisons. The virus makes that body cell sick, then multiplies itself inside the infected cell and then those offspring go off to invade other cells and so on. Unless something is done, this goes on and on until disaster results. The herb from the desert areas of South Africa known as Sutherlandia reverses this destructive process. The mischief caused by viruses and their poisons can be unraveled and corrected. Sutherlandia also works on the tumor causing viruses called retroviruses.

WHAT TO EXPECT:

Should you choose to use Sutherlandia there may be a few "bumps in the road" to recovery, so to speak. It takes you back through the many past problems the body has had and you repair them as you go. But, wouldn’t it be worth it to develop an immune system that viruses just bounce off of ? It would be great to get back to original condition again wouldn’t it? It is a pretty tall order to build a strong immune system these days. This is especially true if you have lived for a while and your body has gone through some damaging battles and collected some "junk". If the body has "walled off" areas of struggle in the past, these may be cleaned out in the process of restoring the immune system.

Sutherlandia acts as an adaptagen to help one cope with anxiety and depression.

HOW MUCH TO TAKE:

SUTHERLANDIA is not candy. You can only go so fast when you set out to unravel all of the ills of the past caused by viruses and repair them as you go along.

INTERNAL USE:

Experience has shown three to ten drops with meals can be a pretty good pace unless advised otherwise by your health care practitioner.

EXTERNAL USE:

Apply to troubled area(s), enough to cover the area each day, until the problem is resolved.

FOLK MEDICINE USE FOR SUTHERLANDIA COLLECTED SINCE VERY EARLY TIMES UP TO THE PRESENT.

When you see the number of conditions that have been corrected by Sutherlandia, you wonder if viruses were mixed into the cause of most all of these ills. Take a look.

Indigestion, poor appetite, ulcers of stomach and esophagus, painful gas blockages, liver conditions, diarrhea, diabetes, cancer of the pancreas and other cancers.

Colds, flu, asthma, chronic bronchitis and tuberculosis.

Varicose veins, hemorrhoids and heart failure.

Swellings, back ache, muscle ache, kidney and urinary tract infection and joint discomfort.

Anxiety and depression.

Chicken pox, the deadly world-wide flu epidemic of 1918 and conditions where the body’s immune system is fighting good cells too instead of only enemy cells as in the case of:

AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) and HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus).

SUTHERLANDIA COMBINATION

Contents: Sutherlandia, Virginia Snake Root, Cascara Sagrada, Bee Pollen, Distilled Water, and 38% (a grain neutral spirit).

WHY IT IS ALSO OFFERED IN A COMBINATION:

During the time Sutherlandia is working, it helps to have a poison antidote working along with it. For this reason we have included some VIRGINIA SNAKE ROOT in the combination.

You will also want to make sure you are having regular bowel movements to eliminate the poisons that are being cleaned out by Sutherlandia. For this reason we have included some CASCARA SAGRADA in the combination.

Please understand it is also vital to have a diet rich in high quality protein so Sutherlandia can do its job properly. The white blood cells made in the bone marrow and those in the lymph nodes, as well as the interferon made by the liver to fight viruses all require protein to make them. For this reason we have included BEE POLLEN in the combination.

HOW MUCH TO TAKE:

SUTHERLANDIA is not candy. You can only go so fast when you set out to unravel all of the ills of the past and repair them as you go along. Experience has shown three to ten drops per meal is a pretty good pace unless advised otherwise by your health care practitioner.

SI.A.-R

SI.A.-R- (SINUSES, ALLERGIES-REUBEN) COMBINATION: Brings a more complete approach to the relief of sinus problems. Allergies are often associated with and aggravate sinus conditions. Because of this, the effects of allergies must be handled to reduce the swelling as well as liquefying and draining the sinuses to relieve the pressure miseries. The problem of infections must be addressed with antibiotic herbs. The immune system must also be strengthened. SI.A.-R does all four of these things and more. SI.A.-R was developed from established herbal functions out of necessity and desperation to ease suffering. Through experience, the formula's originator, Reuben Schwartz, attests that SI.A.-R has proven itself to be very effective in stopping allergies and opening up the sinuses. He does not recommend that SI.A.-R be taken just all the time. It is meant to bring quick relief and to be taken only when needed.

COMBINATION: Golden Seal is a powerful antibiotic. Bayberry liquefies and drains hardened sinus deposits. Chickweed reduces swelling and soothes and heals inflamed tissues. Gentian digests out dead cells, mucus and pockets of infection. Wood Betony relaxes cramped circulatory passages. Oregon Grape acts as a natural detergent. Bitter Orange opens breathing passages of the lungs and elsewhere. Indian Tobacco relaxes spastic conditions and functions as a poison antidote. Capsicum rapidly re-establishes circulation. Wild Rose Hips (and its associated rutin and hesperidin) are one of the finest natural sources of Vitamin C for repair, antidoting poisons and fighting infections. They also act as a catalyst to make the herb team more effective. Una De Gato is one of South America's finest herbs for building immunity. Siberian Ginseng (Indian Sarsaparilla) works with the adrenal glands (one on top of each kidney) to produce at least four dozen anti-stress compounds such as adrenaline and natural cortisone. Blue Vervain provides gentle and effective comfort for irritated nerves. Black Cohosh is one of the swiftest of poison antidotes to alleviate suffering.

SUGGESTED USE: When suffering, it is most helpful taken at the rate of 40 drops, in juice or water, every 10 to 15 minutes until relief.

S.M. & W.-S

What's in S.M. & W.-S First of all, The Formula - Stimulant for Men & Women by Solomon , contains the knowledge and observation of many years of Amish herbal experience. When a practitioner sees problems over and over, and what actually works on them, then you have experience that is valuable. What else? Well, the real touch of excitement comes when you can see a formula (based on this experience and made with high quality herbs) put together and see it can do more than the individual herbs in it can do separately. Then you really have something. And that is what happened and how this formula S.M. & W.-S was developed and came to be. Since then, we have the evidence of people continuing to demand this formula for its assistance to men and women. On the basis of this, one might suspect that it works. We can get a hint of its total function by looking at its ingredients.

Sarsaparilla- Has long been prized for its anti-stress, energy and stamina giving properties by nourishing the adrenal glands (one on top of each kidney). The adrenal glands factually make at least four dozen different anti-stress compounds to keep us on a level path. They can even make female hormones for a woman who has had a hysterectomy operation to remove the ovaries and or uterus.

Pumpkin Seed- Contains the necessary trace elements of Zinc and Copper. Zinc is the friend of the prostate and the uterus so that they function normally. Copper is needed to ensure elasticity of connective tissue. Pumpkin seeds are also the enemy of "parasites" that often plague parts of the body and go undetected as a cause of mischief. Zinc and Copper from Pumpkin Seeds don't fight each other like the people who sell you laboratory made tablets of Copper and Zinc supplements say they do.

Yokum- Is an herb that has known hormonal support properties. It increases the function of sexual activity for men and women.

Wild Yam- Can be taken by women and men to provide the building blocks for the body to convert into whatever sexual hormone may be lacking. Wild Yam also has an hormonal balancing property to it.

Maca- Is the herb used for millennia by the native peoples of the high Peruvian Andes Mountains for its fertility and anti-stress support. Maca is at home in the Andes and lives and survives the rigors of that harsh climate.

Stone Root- Dissolves waste mineral deposits which can clog up circulatory vessels and thus restores circulation and function. It is noted especially for its correction of the urinary system, but it also works on cleaning heart valves and all other areas where there are congestive mineral deposits.

Contents: Sarsaparilla, Pumpkin Seed, Yokum, Wild Yam, Maca, and Stone Root.

Dose: 80 Drops to 1 Teaspoon 3X per day and let nature do the rest.

BRUISES & SPRAINS

ARNICA – For external use only. Excellent first-aid for bruises, sprains, broken bones or concussions. Make several applications externally to the area until relief is felt. This is a very swift remedy. An overnight soak can be made for serious cases by putting 40 to 80 drops in 1/2 cup of water and dampening a cloth or gauze with the solution and covering the injured area. Cover this with plastic sandwich wrap and hold in place with a bandage. Change the dressing once a day and allow the area to dry before reapplying the dressing. If the skin is sensitive, then apply Vitamin E oil from 100 I.U. (International Unit) capsules prior to the dressing. The area can also be washed between dressings. Be sure to discard old dressings and never reuse. Most sprains respond rapidly and are usually corrected with a single overnight dressing or a simple single external application by rubbing in the drops. Arnica can also be used on the pulse points – 5 to 10 drops on each wrist and temple and back of the neck for emotional and physical shocks, upsets, anxiety or when frightened. 1 to 5 drops a day reduces cholesterol when rubbed on the pulse points in a similar manner. For an excellent sore throat remedy, spray with a spray bottle the sore area, using a mixture of 10 drops of the extract to one tablespoon of water. DOSE: EXTERNAL USE ONLY

********************************

INDIAN TOBACCO (LOBELIA) - Indian Tobacco is perhaps the most serviceable, responsible and reliable herb of the herbal kingdom. It is a wonderful catalyst (regulator), and as Dr. John Christopher remarked, it is one of the "thinking" herbs. It has the power to coordinate, direct and assist the use of other herbs or act singly, which makes it an herb of much leverage. Its usefulness has encouraged much jealously from the physicians of lesser ability.

INDIAN TOBACCO CONT: - Doctors who did not recognize its true properties branded it as poisonous. In active practice, it is seen that the extract under the tongue will, within seconds or minutes (in severe cases), stop spasms, convulsions, and asthmatic attacks. With use, it easily directs itself and the other herbs to handle the body’s condition needing help first and the lesser conditions next. It may also be rubbed on the chest and spine when it cannot be taken by mouth. In those cases where Indian Tobacco does empty the stomach, since it is an antispasmodic, the emesis (throwing up) of putrid material does not even cause bruising. Indian Tobacco will not act as an emetic (stomach pump) unless and emetic is necessary, and then it will act strongly upon the putrid stomach, to empty it without bruising. When rubbed across the entire abdominal area, it will relieve any associated, painful gas. Indian Tobacco is very helpful in food poisoning. Indian Tobacco is an antagonist to poison, whether animal or vegetable in origin. Indian Tobacco is at once, both tranquilizing and energizing. This is a peculiar concept, but experience has proven it to be true. For relief of menstrual cramping or relief of "Charlie Horse" (painful cramp in leg muscle) or any muscular cramping, apply liberally to the area and quickly rub in. When externally applied, please use a good quality extract, not a watery one for the action to be accomplished. DOSAGE: 1 to 20 drops, one drop at a time on the tongue. (First brush a little Peppermint Oil on the tongue if sensitive stomach). Externally, use as much as is required.

********************************

DSK.

DSK. – (Disc – shock absorber pads between the vertebrae of the spine and neck) Introduces calming, restorative influence to the disc and works on regeneration of structure. Take if swollen discs to reduce inflammation, discomfort and repair area. Also apply liberally, externally to the troubled area, three times per day. Between the vertebrae (neck and back bones) there rests a disc-shaped structure that could be described as a tough, fibrous, elastic, "shock absorber pad" made, essentially, of protein with a gelatinous fluid-filled center. This makes it possible to walk without discomfort and also be able to bend the back and neck easily. Since we normally walk on our hind two appendages (legs) and not the front two (arms), we support the entire upper body on a column of bone, in the lower back especially. If we do not maintain our protein intake properly and or put too much stress on the discs and or gain too much weight, they can deteriorate or rupture. This brings bone into contact with bone and great discomfort results. The DSK. combination of herbs is composed especially of Knitbone, a type of "body glue" and rapid repair herb, assisted by Valerian Root, a pain reliever, Papaya fruit, which contains a digestaid, papain, to digest out any damaged material which can not be repaired and Willow Bark, to relieve pain and inflammation. The Willow Bark and Valerian portions of DSK allow the sufferer to, at least get some rest due to their relaxing and pain relieving qualities. COMBINATION: Knitbone, Valerian Root, Papaya Fruit, Willow Bark. Dose: Internally, 40 to 80 drops, 3 to 4 times per day and externally, apply in quantity needed to cover the area. If trouble sleeping, then 80 drops to 1 tsp. internally and apply liberally to the distressed area. For more involved conditions also do as follows. NOTE: In cases where serious damage must be repaired, a more elaborate and quicker approach can be taken. Make an application to area to be repaired in the manner described here. Apply to the area: Vitamin E from 100 I.U. capsules to make oxygen more efficient in the repair process, Oil of Cajeput as a decongestant and pain reliever, and Herbal ADJ. to increase circulation and release muscle spasms. Then place a single layer of cheese cloth or absorbent gauze saturated with DSK. over the area. Cover this with plastic sandwich wrap, fix in place and leave on overnight. In the morning, remove the application and discard it. Wash the area and allow to dry. Prepare and apply fresh daytime application like the one for the night. Repeat this regimen until repaired.

SARS

(SUDDEN ACUTE RESPIRATORY SYNDROME)

This dis-ease attacks the respiratory (breathing system) of a person and can become a life threateining problem. The acute part means rapid onset and the problem may result from a brief high intensity exposure to someone with the illness. The syndrome part means a group of symptoms (signs) running together that make up a "picture" of a certain dis-ease. SARS is caused by a virus. A virus is an infectious agent, smaller than most bacteria, and it needs a living cell to invade and live in to be activated and work its mischief.

What happens is that the SARS virus finds weakened or "dirty" cells in the lungs to enter and multiply. The virus destroys cells in the lungs and then the process of putrefaction (rotting) occurs. The lungs draw in fluid to dilute these poisons. All this cuts down on the amount of oxygen the lungs can take up. Breathing becomes labored and the person’s temperature climbs. If the lungs are not oxygenated, strengthened and cleaned death can result.

WHAT TO DO: Open capsules of Vitamin E and apply the oil all over the chest. This oxygenates the lungs and body. Next apply liquid Pleurisy Root Extract to the entire chest. This helps to drain the excess fluid from the lungs. Then apply liquid extract C.C.E.-W (Cleansing-Corrective-Extract) to the lungs and abdomen. This will clean the lungs and the wastes from the bowel. Then apply Oil of Cajeput to the chest. Oil of Cajeput is an antibiotic and will destroy fungus as well as relieve discomfort. It also opens the air passage ways which makes breathing easier. Its scent is pleasant. Finally, apply Herbal Adjustment all over the chest. This rapidly increases circulation and opens air passage ways. Infected mucus can now slide up and out of the lungs. After applying the Herbal Adjustment slip on an old wet white T-Shirt. Use cold water to wet the T-Shirt. Next, take a plastic trash bag and poke holes for the head and arms. Pull this down over the body. Go to bed, cover up and sweat it out.

Throughout the day, while sweating, drink 1 cup every three hours of warm tea made from Yarrow Extract. This will replace body fluids. Continue until the sweat out process is complete. The tea can be prepared by adding 1 tsp. of Yarrow Extract to 1 cup of either distilled water or a good spring water. While sweating, the infected mucus may begin to be coughed up. The temperature should drop, the lungs should be cleaned out and the process is then complete. Repeat if temperature begins to climb again and cough becomes tight. In severe cases apply all the above liquid extracts and oils to the back area where the lungs are located.

CAUTION: Do not get any liquid extracts or oils in the eyes as it will cause the sensation of stinging and/or great heat. Be reassured tissue is not being destroyed, but if you don’t know that you might panic. If any fluids should get into the eyes, flush immediately with water. Be patient and peace will return.

BOWEL MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

Please use a bowel management program as an essential part of your complete program for building better health naturally. It is essential and normal to empty the wastes from the colon, frequently, so they do not become reabsorbed and cause illness. The concept of one bowel movement per day leads to disease conditions of many kinds as the wastes seek emergency exits. In many so called "primitive" societies where there are 3 evacuations every 24 hours numerous dis-eases, we commonly have, are simply non-existent. They don’t even have names for them. It is especially important when the body is being cleaned and repaired to be able to eliminate the poisons from the body frequently. Energy and a sense of "well being" result from this program. Many problems will be prevented. "Miseries missed are also blessings received." The goal here is to achieve at least 2 and preferably 3 bowel movements per day.

EACH EVENING: Take 1 to 3 tsp. of C.C.E.-W (Cleansing-Corrective-Extract) in a little juice or 1 – 4 capsules of CASCARA SAGRADA. This is a cleaner. Also take 6 to 8 capsules of PSYLLIUM (still’-ee-yum) with a large glass of water. If preferred take the Psyllium as a loose powder at the rate of 1 tsp. strirred into a large glass of water. This is a softener and lubricant. It is essential for Psyllium to do its job to drink a large glass of water, as Psyllium expands greatly after taking it and if there is not enough water then things can get "gummed up". Psyllium also performs another valuable service; it acts much like a liquid and liquids are not compressible. Each time the intestines contract normally in their function (peristaltic waves initiated by swallowing) the Psyllium pushes back. In essence, Psyllium exercises the intestines internally with each use. In addition to the above, take 12 capsules of ALFALFA. This acts as a scrub brush to absorb poisons. Alfalfa also deodorizes the body internally and externally while it ushers out of the body many kinds of suspected "parasites". Take 80 drops of the combination MUGWORT & WORMSEED and 40 drops of CLOVE EXTRACT (Not Clove Oil) to kill the eggs.

NOTE: People who eat 1 to 2 cups of natural milk YOGURT (not low-fat milk) often notice they have increased levels of energy. After a few weeks they are no longer continually passing gas and the stool is odorless.

FULL NERVOUS SYSTEM APPLICATION

Excerpted from the copyrighted works

HERBAL RESEARCH GROUP DELUXE EDITION VOLUME 1

BY: DR. A.B. HOWARD

This program is for stroke victims, accident victims, surgical complications after surgery or "M.D.", "M.S." type problems. Any time there is surgery, a dental procedure, an automobile accident or an injury or trauma (electrical disturbance to the nerves) to the body from any source, there is a physical shock to the nervous system. This causes a continuing electrical disruption to the nervous system. This must be removed, even if the trauma was years ago, if repair is to take place. Otherwise, the herbs have a very difficult time doing their job.

DAILY– Apply the liquid herbs externally (listed as: Liquid Herbs to be Applied Daily) to the body, one after the other, along the pathways described below:

Have the person lie on the stomach. Start at the last cervical vertebra (neck bone) or the "bump" where the last cervical vertebra meets the first back vertebra on the trunk of the body.

A. Apply the liquid herb up onto the neck and onto the scalp all the way to the top of the head.

B. Apply the liquid herb all the way down the spine (about the width of the hand) to the tip of the coccyx (kok’siks-tail bone). Then apply over one of the buttocks and down one of the legs. When you get to the area behind the knee, go to one side as this is a rather sensitive area. Then continue down the leg (calf) to the heel and then to the middle of the foot. From there, run the liquid herb to the end of each toe. Then do the same to the other leg.

C. Apply the liquid herb in front of the ear and behind the ear, then down the neck and out to the shoulder. Then down the back of the arm to the elbow, then down the back of the forearm to the middle of the palm. From there run the liquid herb to the end of each finger.

D. Apply the liquid herb to the top of the head on the scalp, then go forward and down to the tip of the nose. Take care not to get into the eyes as intense stinging can occur. No permanent damage would occur, but it should be flushed with water. Time and patience are the best remedies after flushing.

E. Repeat this procedure each day until trauma is removed and the nervous system is repaired (this can take one month or longer in some cases) and/or until complete, normal use of the area returns. It has been observed that a pain may shoot down to the foot or hand or up to the head, or you may feel as if static electricity is coming out at the ends of the application to the fingers, toes or head, or you may observe the towel or sheet you are lying on is full of static electricity. This is simply the electrical disturbance or trauma that has been stored in the body and is now leaving. This is a very positive indication and when it no longer happens you know the system is ready to actively repair itself (because the stored trauma has been removed).

LIQUID HERBS TO BE APPLIED DAILY:

NOTE: Put VITAMIN E (from natural source 100 i.u. capsules- International Unit, a measure of liquid vitamins) on first if the skin is sensitive.

ARNICA herbal extract – is used to remove physical trauma and shock from the nervous system (use a smaller amount than the other herbs).

PEPPERMINT OIL herbal extract – is oxygenating.

HERBAL ADJUSTMENT herbal extract – improves circulation.

B. & N.C.-W – (Brain and Nerve Cocktail) herbal combination restores nerve function.

OL’#11 (OLD NUMBER 11, an herbal combination for repair) repairs all tissues of the body.

PEANUT OIL – restores the insulation to the nerves. (NOTE: Warm the oil in the hands before application. Obtain the oil from a health food store, so it does not contain preservatives, refrigerate the oil when not in use).

OPTIONAL HERBS THAT CAN BE ADDED FOR SPECIFIC PURPOSES:

BLACK COHOSH herbal extract – removes viruses and poisons from the nervous system.

MUGWORT AND WORMSEED herbal combination – kills parasites which can damage the nervous system (viruses, bacteria, fungus or any other type of parasite).

SCULLCAP herbal extract – repairs nerves and also removes viruses.

BLACK WALNUT HULLS herbal extract – helps restore the electrical balance of the nervous system.

KLAMATH WEED herbal extract – helps to restore the electrical balance to the nervous system.

NOTE: If you feel the historically observed benefits of any other herb would be useful for you in the external application to the nervous system, please feel free to utilize it.

When using anything new on the body (soap, shampoo, herbs, etc.) always put a little on the skin as a test for how your body reacts to it. Wait a few minutes and if no reaction occurs, then proceed. There is nothing in the herbs that would cause an allergic reaction, however there is always the possibility of an atypical reaction. This is a reaction to your specific body, to a substance and not typical to others.

"CANDIDA YEAST" AND "FUNGUS" TYPE PROBLEMS

Excerpted from the copyrighted works

HERBAL RESEARCH GROUP DELUXE EDITION VOLUME I

BY: DR. A.B. HOWARD

1. Herbs that historically eliminate yeast and fungus type problems are listed below:

A. Oil of Cajeput- herbal extract can usually remedy "candida yeast" type problems. Put three to four drops of Oil of Cajeput herbal extract on a little food and eat it three times a day.

B. Can-Sol- herbal combination can also be used to remedy "candida yeast" type problems and is especially helpful if a resistant strain is encountered. Use 80 drops three times per day and avoid sugars and starches.

C. Bee Propolis has historically been used with great success in handling all types of viruses, bacteria, funguses and microbes, even strains that are very resistant. Use 40 drops to two teaspoons of Bee Propolis herbal extract three times per day. Remember, the tougher the case, the larger the amount of Bee Propolis is used.

2. The role of B-complex in fighting fungus problems - Adelle Davis, noted U.S. nutritionist, ("Let's Eat Right", "Let's Have Healthy Children", etc.) successfully handled fungus type problems with large amounts of B-complex. Use Rice Bran extract or Brewer's Yeast extract, 80 drops to two teaspoons three times a day.

NOTE: In general, it has not been universally observed that eating foods that contain yeast such as bread or brewer's yeast promotes or causes "YEAST" type problems.

3. Bowel Management Program- Use a good bowel management program which produces at least three bowel movements per day. This will keep the bowel clean, as yeasts often "hang out" in this area and then migrate to other areas.

4. Avoid reinfection- If the sexual partner, wife or husband has a "candida yeast" type problem, it is likely that the partner will be a carrier. It would be wise for the partner to also use the herbs to eliminate the yeast problem.

5. Avoid meat products that were treated with antibiotics- Avoid meats where the animal was fed antibiotics as part of its feed. This generally includes anything except those meats labeled "organically raised" or at least those that are labeled "raised without antibiotics".

6. Avoid building up an intolerance to medical antibiotics (do not use them when they are not necessary) - Whenever possible, avoid the use of antibiotics. They are themselves, usually a fungus and will kill all bacteria, including the normal "friendly bacteria" in the large intestine.

A. When you use an antibiotic "fungus" to kill bacteria in the body, you kill the good and bad bacteria and establish a friendly environment for all "funguses". This encourages "candida yeast" type infections. To counteract the bad bacteria, use the suggestions in Point 7.A. of this paper.

B. Once all the bacteria are killed (good and bad), the harmful bacteria that normally reside in fecal waste matter, unless "good flora" are taken, will return in much greater numbers and faster than the good bacteria or "good flora" in the large intestine. See Point 7.A. in this paper to prevent this problem.

7. How to Supplement Nutritionally to Compensate During the Use of Medical Antibiotics- If there is a need for the use of medical antibiotics, it would be wise to supplement the body with large amounts of Vitamin-B Complex. Use Rice Bran herbal extract, 80 drops to two teaspoons three times per day.

A. You may also bring in Acidophilus, acid-loving "friendly bacteria", (good flora) from either one cup of whole milk yogurt per day (only the whole milk yogurt has the nutrients to support the acidophilus) or six to eight Acidophilus capsules with Lactose milk sugar added per day. Both can be found in health food stores. Many people allergic to milk products can tolerate this type of supplementation.

B. The result of not having "good flora" in the large intestine is the multiplication of putrefactive bacteria which produce terrible poisons that can be reabsorbed into the body, giving it a second problem. NOTE: By using whole milk yogurt daily, many people have noticed the putrefactive bacteria are squeezed out to the extent that the stool becomes almost odorless.

C. To antidote any poisons produced by putrefactive bacteria, and kill the bacteria, the following herbs may be used:

Bee Propolis- herbal extract is one of the strongest antibiotics in nature and can be used in large amounts by itself or along with the herbal combination C.C.E.-W (Cleansing Corrective Extract). Use 80 drops to one tablespoon of one or both every three to four hours during a crisis.

Golden Seal- herbal extract is also a tremendous antibiotic, but when using it, Vitamin-B Complex should also be taken, as the Golden Seal utilizes the Vitamin-B Complex in order to function as an antibiotic. Supplement with one to two teaspoons of Rice Bran herbal extract three times per day to compensate for this effect.

W.L.-S

W.L.-S - is an approach to weight loss that has not been seen before. This herbal combination was originally designed to remove sulfur accumulations from the body which were distorting body functions. You may wonder how sulfur gets into the body and could play such a detrimental role. People who were given sulfa drugs as antibiotics may still have them accumulated in the body. Today, sulfur compounds are often used to bleach vegetable products, for a "pretty" color, to keep them from turning dark and to preserve meat products. It is even included by law in wines produced in the United States. Often shampoo and many cosmetics include sulfur. Sulfur from manufacturing processes enters the water supply and gets into the drinking water. These chemical sulfur compounds act as an irritant to living systems and also block many body functions including digestion. W.L.-S herbs, acting together, work as an antagonist to inorganic sulfur (chemical sulfur) and gently, but decidedly, flush it out. It was determined through this process of flushing inorganic sulfur from the system and keeping it out, a person can often regain health and in the process loose weight. From this we have a new approach to weight loss.

W.L.-S Contains: Chickweed, Blue Vervain, Greasewood, Bladderwrack, Capsicum and Dandelion Root.

Chickweed- heals and soothes irritated tissue on contact. It also a reputed fat dissolver.

Blue Vervain- recognized for re-establishing proper nerve function while at the same time calming over-excited nerves.

Greasewood- is probably the strongest and most concentrated of herbal cleaners for the liver, bone marrow, and glandular areas. Greasewood is a known dissolver of "bad cells".

Bladderwrack- sparks especially the functions of the thyroid gland at the base of the neck and its two helper glands, the parathyroids. This major gland governs the rate at which food is burned in the body. Calcium levels are regulated for relaxed nerves and muscles.

Capsicum- does rapidly re-establish circulation to any area in need of cleaning and oxygenation. It also acts as a catalyst herb (speeds up body chemistry without over exciting the nervous system).

Dandelion Root- provides correct natural sodium balance for blood stream health, proper stomach function and joint health.

SUGGESTED USE: Place into juice or water 40 drops to 1 tsp. 3 x's per day at a meal or more or as recommended by your natural health practitioner.

WEST NILE VIRUS

WHERE IT COMES FROM: West Nile Virus is a virus which means it is also a parasite. Birds get infected with it. When mosquitoes bite birds the mosquitoes become infected with it. Then when the infected mosquito bites a person or a horse or other warm blooded life form they can get sick from the virus. Before the virus came here through New York City in 1996, it was common to Africa and then moved into the warm areas around the Mediterranean ocean. Currently, as of August 26, 2002, West Nile Virus is in all the U.S states except for the western states of Washington, Oregon, Idaho, California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, Alaska and Hawaii according to the National Wildlife Health Center. It is now moving west with the birds and mosquitoes that have it.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU GET IT: The first signs of people with the virus is a rash and a headache and not feeling well. (Please keep in mind there are other things that can cause a rash, a headache and not feeling well to occur.) The rash may not be in the area where the mosquito bite occurred. As the "dis-ease" progresses, there can be a high fever, sensitivity to light and brain inflammation. Look for signs of a "stiff neck" and accompanying soreness. The end result of these poisons from the virus can be fatal to a person or a horse or other animal unless remedied.

WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT: The American Indian remedy for all kinds of "poisonous bites" and "fever" and "chills" and "stiff-sore-neck" was and is BLACK COHOSH.

EXTERNALLY: Apply liberally to the entire spine, neck, and temples as needed. Take care not to give a person a "chill" while doing this. If working with a horse, apply as close to the skin as you can. Apply from below the eyes down to the nose as well.

Other remedies of great assistance can be used in the same manner. INDIAN TOBACCO, VIRGINIA SNAKE ROOT, C.C.E.-W (Cleansing-Corrective-Extract) and MUGWORT & WORMSEED. If, needed or desired, all of these could be used one after the other.

INTERNALLY, to prevent a reaction to the mosquito bite, take 40 drops per meal of BLACK COHOSH and for children 10 drops per meal. This often prevents any adverse reaction if bitten.

FLU & FEVER

A.F.-R-(Anti-Flu-Reuben) This combination comes to us from Amish Country in southern Indiana, where many esteemed herbalists practice. Reuben Schwartz has handed us this gift from nature and practice for easing and correcting the miseries of nasty, mean old, take you down and put you in bed type flu. This insightful combination of herbs energizes, nourishes and mobilizes all parts of the body’s immune system for rapid improvement and recovery from the "flu bug". With A.F.-R the flu season does not have to look so threatening.

Combination: Herbal Adj, Golden Seal, Wild Rose Hips, Una De Gato.

Dose: Take 40 to 80 drops in water or juice at the first sign of the flu or cold. If in the grips of the flu or cold then 40 to 80 drops hourly, while awake, until well.

********************************

F. & F.

(Flu & Fever-Ford) The herb Wintergreen functions as a cooling, aromatic (having a scented character), pain and fever relieving decongestant and helps eliminate disgusting, infected mucus. Peppermint Oil, its partner, is another powerful aromatic oil with oxygenating, pain relieving and decongestant qualities. This antibiotic and cough remedy combination must be experienced to truly be appreciated. For more-or-less instant relief from the miserable feelings accompanying flu and fever try F. & F. Combination as a strong ally in your time of need.

Combination: Natural source Oils of Peppermint and Wintergreen, Golden Seal Root, Hyssop, Lemon Juice, Knitbone, Wild Cherry Bark.

Note: Shake well before using, as contents have a tendency to separate.

********************************

F.V.E.-W

(Flu, Vomiting and Earache) - Cleans stomach and ear areas and entire system of irritating debris and infected mucus, as well as providing a dependable antibiotic activity. Take 40 drops hourly, if needed, to alleviate suffering. With children and babies who need extra consideration with taste, apply F.V.E.-W 3 times per day, externally, around the ears, back of the neck, and all over the chest, in quantities needed to cover the areas. Repeat hourly if crisis. Swab ear canals with a Q-Tip (or Cotton Bud) with Vitamin E from capsules, then soak cotton balls with F.V.E.-W and insert into the ears for a time-release cleansing, antibiotic action. Change every 4 hrs. while awake, and otherwise leave in ears overnight. Prevent flu and cold by cleaning out accumulated mucus, settle the stomach and resume digestive function.

Combination: Wild Rose Hips, Golden Seal, Myrrh, Chickweed.

Dose: 10 to 40 drops, after meals, or as given above.

********************************

BEE PROPOLIS

Obtained by bees from fluids from leaves, bark and flowers. A hard, gummy, resinous substance manufactured by bees as a glue to cap honey cells and attach their living quarters to solid objects. This "bee glue" is a powerful antibiotic and anti-putrefaction agent (coats and prevents dead and rotting cells from spreading in body so they can safely be removed). Can be used hourly as an antibiotic in severe cases to regain a foothold on life.

Dose: 20 to 40 drops three times per day or if no improvement, 40 drops per hour until better.

HERBAL ADJUSTMENT & THE BODY INFLUENCES:

This is a quick acting, dramatically effective procedure for relief of headaches, cramping, arthritic discomfort, sports injuries, back discomfort, neck and shoulder tension, heart attacks, strokes and internal bleeding. To do this, two liquids are applied to the skin, one is Peppermint Oil, which is cool, and the second is a combination of herbs know as Herbal ADJ. which is not. The Peppermint Oil is applied first and the Herbal ADJ. second. The procedure of using these two liquids together is called an "Herbal Adjustment". In some cases, as given here, Herbal ADJ. is also taken internally and will be described individually. This procedure will not interfere with medication and will not make a person "groggy". Needles and injections are not used. HEADACHES AND TENSION – For headaches, apply 1st Peppermint Oil from the tip of the tailbone, up the spine, and on to the neck and the back of the head on the scalp and on up to the top of the head. Make the application about the width of the person’s hand. Next apply the two liquids to the temples and forehead. Have the person lean the head back so as to avoid getting any of the liquids in the eyes. (Should an accident occur, flush with water, remain calm and peace will return.) Also apply to any additional areas of the head which are hurting. Finally, apply in front of and behind the ears, down the neck on both sides and out to the shoulders. This complete application will have an effect on the entire nervous system of the body. The effects are quick and relief is swift. Repeat as needed. For additional help, if needed, put 40 to 80 drops of Herbal ADJ. in a cup of water and drink it down. Do not sip as it is hot and best to get it over with as soon as possible. If a mild headache is in progress usually an application of the two liquids to the temples, forehead and back of the neck are all that is needed for headache relief. CHIROPRACTIC ADJUSTMENTS – The Herbal Adjustment liquids penetrate quickly into troubled areas. After application, the liquids at once relax the nerves and muscles which then allows the bones to go back into their proper place and the circulation resumes its normal function. In this way oxygenation and relaxation of cramping muscle pain is alleviated. The Herbal Adjustment liquids may be applied several times in extreme conditions and then repeated as needed. Do not get into eyes and wash hands after application. Application before a chiropractic adjustment makes for a very easy and quick adjustment. It will be noted the adjustment is speeded up and "sticks" (stays in place) far longer. ARTHRITIC DISCOMFORTS – For arthritic discomforts the two liquids are applied to the area as needed. CRAMPING AND MENSTRUAL CRAMPING – If cramping or menstrual cramping, apply the two liquids directly to the cramping area. If additional help is needed, put 40 drops of Herbal Adj. in a cup of water and drink it. (Herbal ADJ. will not stop a menstrual flow as it is a natural bleeding.) Repeat as necessary. HEART ATTACKS, STROKES AND INTERNAL BLEEDING – To stop a heart attack, stroke or internal bleeding, put 40 or 80 drops of Herbal ADJ. in a cup of water and drink it. Also apply to chest and neck or other area of internal bleeding. Repeat as needed. SPORTS INJURIES – For sports injuries such as sprains, twists, bumps, bruises, torn tendons, ligaments, etc., apply Arnica to the area to take the physical shock out of the area, then Peppermint Oil and then Herbal ADJ. to the area for relief of pain and to correct the circulation. Then apply the repair formula Ol’ #11 (OLD NUMBER ELEVEN) to start the repair process. This is done as soon after the injury as possible. Repeat during the day every 3 to 4 hours as needed. However, it should not be thought that this procedure will not tackle chronic and old injuries with equal determination because it will. The night procedure for sports injuries is to open capsules of 100 i.u. Vitamin E (International Units, meaning a system of measurement for the amount of a liquid vitamin) and apply the oil to the injured area. Then soak cheese cloth or gauze with the repair formula Ol’ #11 and wrap the area with the cloth. The larger the wrap, the greater and quicker the effect. Wrap this then with plastic sandwich wrap and an additional cloth to hold everything in place for the night. This procedure forms a thermal and moisture barrier and time release effect during the night. The herbs are driven into the body, congestion is broken up, swelling reduced and function restored. There is a two way traffic flow here. Herbs are pushed into the body area and poisons are pulled up and sweated out of the body at the same time. The next morning, remove the application and discard the herbal cloth as it is spent and contains poisons. Wash the area and allow to dry. Note: This process of applying an herbal tea or herbal extract to the body soaked into cloth is know as a fomentation (foh’-men-tay-shun). For the daytime apply Arnica, Peppermint Oil and Herbal ADJ. every 3 – 4 hours. Repeat this daytime and nighttime process until the area is repaired. DOSAGE: As given in the above work. Additionally, Herbal ADJ. can be given as part of a daily herb regimen to "spark" an herbal program and get it to work. 40 drops in a cup of water 1 – 4 times per day. NOTE: Just the Herbal ADJ. Combination is put in water to make the drink. If a Peppermint tea is desired, only 1 – 2 drops of the oil to a cup of water makes a good tea. CHIROPRACTIC PHYSICIANS: When the area to be adjusted is too tense for the needed procedure, Peppermint Oil and Herbal ADJ. applied to the spine, neck and shoulders rapidly relaxes the areas. Then minimal pressure is required to achieve remarkable results. MASSAGE THERAPISTS: Peppermint Oil and Herbal ADJ. applied to tense areas of the spine, neck, shoulder and other areas (avoid eyes, under arm and private areas) produce a warming and relaxing effect which makes therapeutic massage a very rewarding experience. SOURCES: Dr. Eugene C. Watkins, "Get Well With Natural Remedies;" Alma R. Hutchens, "Indian Herbalogy of North America;" Dr. John R. Christopher, "School of Natural Healing." Combination: Black Cohosh, Blue Vervain, Capsicum, Indian Tobacco, Siberian Ginseng.

EYES & EARS

E.-W (Eyes) - Eyes and visual machinery can be repaired. Increases circulation to eyes and optic nerve, retina and lens. Floods oxygen to the congested areas of the eyes. Pressure-causing sinus deposits are liquefied and strings of matter may be expelled from the eyes in the cleaning process. This is not an infection, but rather a cleaning of the material clogging up the circulatory and sinus passages around the eyes. Optic nerve reception is sharpened. A very serviceable eye wash can be made from 20 to 40 drops of E.-W in 1/2 cup of distilled water. Obtain a couple of plastic eye cups, fill with the dilution (the eye wash is best used when it is at room temperature to reduce stinging, which is a normal response as circulation improves), place over the eyes, lean the head back, and let them go swimming for 5 minutes, 3 times per day. Flutter the eyes around in the dilution. Flush out the congestion, revive the circulation to the eyes, improve the vision and flush out cataracts. If eye cups are unavailable, saturate two cotton balls with the dilution, hold over the upper bony ridge of the eyes and squeeze slightly so that drops can trickle into the eyes. Repeat until well. COMBINATION: Wood Betony, Eyebright, Bayberry. Dose: 10 to 40 drops after meals. Also rub 40 drops on the sides of the nose, over the upper cheek bones and on the temples and forehead, 3 times per day, and as given above.

********************************

E. & E.-B

E. & E.-B – (EYES AND EARS) Is designed with much care and understanding for the proper functioning of eyes and ears. This well studied and formulated combination was developed by the esteemed American Herbal Practitioner, Dr. William Horosh, to handle even the most difficult of eye and ear problems. Many different body systems are being worked on with this combination in E. & E. –B cont. - order to address a multitude of causes of eye and ear problems. In the process of this, attention is given to cleaning, nourishing, oxygenating, improving circulation, softening and reconditioning many different body structures. This is so much the case that E. & E. –B has also been used by practitioners to act as rejuvenation of body systems in general. COMBINATION: All Heal, Bilberry, Golden Seal, Gravel Root, Chickweed, Peach Leaf, Dandelion Leaf and Root, Purple Loosestrife, Eyebright, Wheat Germ, Ginger, Wood Betony.

Dose: 40 to 80 drops, three times per day.

BILBERRY

BILBERRY – (Huckleberry) In the 1920’s the discoverer of Vitamin C, Albert Giorgy, was concerned about the "spark of life" and where it came from. After years of careful research he concluded it was Vitamin C that put and kept the spark of life in the body. When food is eaten, Vitamin C is the substance that puts life back into the food to make it part of the body’s living tissue. We now know why Bilberries, Black Currents, Chippewa Pine and Wild Rose Hips are used for so many different conditions to recover good health. Bilberry is a good tasting berry that contains the much sought after natural Vitamin C. Natural Vitamin C is not just one vitamin it is many related Vitamins C’s. Therefore, we call it more properly, Vitamin C "complex". Chemical Vitamin C, known as ascorbic acid, is just one synthetic type of Vitamin C. Bilberries contain all of this naturally occurring complex and the related substances found with it. The compounds Rutin, Hesperidin and Bioflavidnoids are found right along side the natural C "complex". These compounds are the "glue" that sticks your body together so it does not fall apart. Bilberries affect rapid repair of broken blood vessels and prevent them from breaking. Hence, you hear "take Bilberry to prevent bruising". The result of taking the natural C "complex" and related substances together as an extract is that of greater activity. They are far more active than a chemical Vitamin C and you don’t have to keep increasing the amount as with chemical Vitamin C to get the same effect. In fact, historical evidence shows, Bilberries have been gratefully acknowledged for a very impressive array of help. Bilberries cont. – Many are the conditions that fall within the influence of Bilberries. When we look at mineral sources, Bilberries are one of the highest known sources of the mineral zinc and provide a generous source of iron, manganese and selenium. Iron is required for energy, and both zinc and manganese are closely associated with production of healthy connective tissue. Selenium takes special care to ensure proper cell division and prevent harmful mutations. These prevented harmful mutations could very well have been cancerous or "bad cells". If not out-right cancerous cells, then they might have been of a type seen by the body as "foreign protein", and set off a war between the body’s immune system and this "foreign protein". This is the case with conditions like osteoarthritis and other auto-immune or allergic reactions where the body is fighting itself. According to current nutritional research, both zinc and selenium (from natural food sources) are active in ensuring proper cell division and the prevention of cancer cell formation. Bilberries are such a valuable source of so many essential mineral complexes, it is no wonder then, that a long list of healing actions have been recorded and attributed to this marvelous wild berry. Here is a partial list: Bilberries are a tonic (good for all body systems), strengthen and restore eyesight (it should be noted that many and persistent are the accounts of improvement in eyesight through the use of Bilberries, including correction of macular or "fine-focus" degeneration of the eye), correct tonsillitis, sore tongue, laryngitis, violent continuous diarrhea with blood loss, intestinal putrefaction, bowel disorders, act as a bowel regulator, mouthwash, gargle, discourage roundworms, and ease vomiting; apply directly for skin problems and inflamed gums; gastric colitis, water retention, typhoid fever, sore tongue with white patches, wound healing, rheumatism (sore joints), bladder problems, gravel in urinary system and mucus in breathing passages. All in all, a very impressive champion of good health. Bilberries blend in with the body’s natural functions to give them all a boost and herein lies their secret. Dose: 40 to 80 drops on or under the tongue three times per day or hourly if condition is severe.

MACA EXTRACT

This herbal gift comes to us from the native peoples high in the Andes mountains of Peru, South America. It is used both as a food and a medicine. When you live at such great heights in a harsh and challenging environment, you look for anything you can to help you develop the stamina to survive. The herb Maca figures prominently in the ability to master this struggle. The herb itself, Maca, is a hardy survivor of harsh growing conditions. It makes its home at heights between 9,000 to 14,500 feet. This is an area where the direct rays of the sun can hit plants (and people) without having been filtered through a cloud first. Where Maca is at home, many people would be clawing for a decent breath of air when they just try to move around. Thin, rocky soils dominate the landscape and fierce winds with biting cold can whip up out of nowhere. No other cultivated plant grows as high up as Maca. Maca has the ability to survive here where other plants perish. Perhaps for this reason, the native peoples of Peru who live there turned to this hardy member of the Nightshade Family of plants (familiar relatives are the potato, tomato, egg plant and tobacco) to find that it helps them survive as well. The Maca plant lies on the ground and looks a little like a flat-growing potato plant. It has ivory colored flowers and tubers (underground storage roots) resembling an upside down pear. This storage root is the part which is used after boiling it for five to six hours to harness its positive properties. Maca’s mature taste can be described as something like the taste of peanut brittle without the peanuts in it, or a type of bee pollen.

When we consider all the things Maca is traditionally relied upon to do, the best guess in figuring out how Maca works is that it nourishes the glandular control bridge of the brain (pituitary-hypothalamus-pineal-complex) and encourages it to work properly.

This control bridge then coordinates and encourages the function of all the other glands below the head. This action includes the glands of the body such as the ovaries, testes, adrenals, pancreas, thyroid, thymus etc. and they begin producing their hormones again. This is a far different approach than orthodox medicine's practice of dumping finished chemical hormones into the body, which may or may not be unbalanced, and cause the body’s glands to shrivel and stop any production of hormones that might be going on. We know that artificial chemical hormones can be a problem. Maca has been used, according to archaeological evidence in Peru, since probably 1600 years B.C. If there was any problem with it, we probably would have found out about it by now.

Many physicians of South America and Dr. Vianna Muller of New York in the U.S., find Maca especially useful for women to relieve the torments and suffering of menopause, sugar cravings and depression during and after menopause.

When Maca is given to men or animals fertility is increased and sexual function is strengthened. Yet when scientists examine Maca, they do not find it to contain hormones. They do find it to contain a class of chemical compounds known as glucosinolates, or more specifically, p-methoxybenzyl isothiocyantate. These compounds are often associated with herbs know as aphrodisiacs.

Peruvian folk medicine describes the use of Maca to be for the following: For men and animals, increased fertility and increased sexual function. For women during menopause to relieve hot flashes, correction of menstrual disorders, for more youthful skin, improved sexual desire, normalizing vaginal lubrication and improved emotional balance. For both men and women: Energy and stamina, to correct anemia, to build immunity and improve memory.

Suggested traditional daily liquid Extract intake: 40 to 80 drops daily. In severely debilitated cases 1 tsp. 3 times per day.

Note: Some cleaning may occur as the glands are nourished and coordinated and encouraged to function again. If this occurs, then be sure to use Maca with a good bowel management herb or herbs to ensure at least 2 or more easy and complete bowel movements per day. Feelings of "nausea" can be prevented in this way.

SINUSES

SI.-W-(Sinus problems) SI.-W is a much relied upon and appreciated formula for sinus congestion and infections. Prevents sinus attacks. Rapidly opens breathing passages and restores breathing. When it comes to chronically (condition of long standing) blocked sinuses, the answer is to liquefy and drain. To dry up infected mucus in breathing passages merely adds another deposit to the previous layers of accumulated dried, infected mucus. This does not correct the problem. Each successive "sinus attack" is a desperate call for help from the sinus basin to be drained. SI.-W opens breathing passages and liquefies and drains sinus passages. SI.-W combines the qualities of a cooling, antibiotic, anti-inflammatory, detergent team for relief of sinus anguish. 10 to 40 drops 3 times per day brings relief for breathing. To break loose old deposits may require several days or weeks at the rate of 40 drops, 3 times per day, but what else would you have been doing? As chronic dried, hard sinus deposits are liquefied, they come off layer by layer just as they were laid down. This may involve extensive drainage, and many colors of the expelled mucus may be exhibited in the process. Do Not mistake this for a sinus infection. It is not. This process of re-hydration takes time, but the results are worth it. Continue this process until the sinuses liquefy and finally drain all their old deposits, and the mucus turns clean. An interesting adjunctive use of SI.-W is for earache and ear infections where someone is recommending putting tubes in the ears to drain them. Swab the car canals with Vitamin E from 100 i.u. capsules to reduce any irritation. Then insert a cotton ball soaked with SI.-W into the each ear canal. This is a time-release, corrective antibiotic with a detergent effect to drain the middle ear into the mouth through the short tubes provided for that purpose, known as the Eustachian (U-stay-shun) tubes. Change the time-release cotton balls morning and night. Usually overnight or throughout the day is enough time for the SI.-W to clean the drain and get the plugs out of the tubes which empty into the mouth. Many recorded cases of hearing problems have cleared up with use of this procedure, when used for several days. Please note: Most sinus problems are caused by either of two problems. Incompletely digested food which forms irritants and causes the body to produce mucus to prevent irritation. Improper bowel management of less than one bowel movement per each meal. This causes the body to use emergency exits, such as the sinuses, lungs, ears, and throat to expel the wastes. Therefore, please use a digest-aid and a bowel maintenance program with the use of SI.-W to cut off the source of the sinus problems.

Combination: Bayberry, Golden Seal, Wood Betony, Gentian, Chickweed, Oregon Grape.

Dose: 10 to 40 drops, 3 times per day, and as given above.

A.E.A.-B

(Allergy, Emphysema, Asthma) Is a formula distinguished by its success. It was developed by the noted American herbalist and natural practitioner, Dr. William Horosh for alleviating adverse conditions which primarily attack the respiratory system and those who suffer from allergies. A.E.A.-B is in demand especially during the spring and late summer months when pollen, mold spores, dust and various types of debris are a plague to many. A.E.A.-B helps during the winter months, when the dry,

A.E.A.-B contains two lung herbs which immediately open breathing passages: Indian Tobacco and Thyme. Indian Tobacco relaxes spastic airways and rids them of hard, dried mucus. Thyme, works by actively opening respiratory channels and acting, in many ways, like a natural cortisone. Licorice Root nourishes the adrenal glands, one on top of each kidney, so that they can make more than fifty different anti-stress compounds, including your own natural cortisone. The combination Herbal Adjustment, immediately increases circulation and thus, oxygenation and carries the other herbs of this combination into the tissues. Wild Rose Hips contain a complete form of natural Vitamin C which protects, repairs , prevents and corrects fragile capillaries (tiny, delicate, thin, "work horse" blood vessels which connect the arteries and veins and get blood down to the cellular levels). The lungs contain an army of these capillaries and it is here that oxygen is absorbed and the waste gas carbon dioxide is released. This produces the energy to power the process of life and for correction and refreshment of a tired and exhausted system.

Combination: Indian Tobacco, Herbal Adjustment, Thyme, Wild Rose Hips, Licorice Root.

Dose: 40 to 80 drops as needed. As a maintenance, 40 to 80 drops, 3 times per day. A.E.A.-B can also be rubbed into the chest externally, front and back, several times per day for a continuing corrective action. After applying A.E.A.-B, place a cotton towel on the chest and wear a warm natural fiber garment. This helps to drive the herbs in and breaks loose dried and or congestive mucus. Note: Avoid contact with eyes, underarms and private areas. As it will cause a hot sensation due to the heat of Herbal Adj., a person might panic if they don’t know this. Have patience and calm will return.

IMMUNITY

IM.S.-W (Immune System Builder)

Father Sebastian Kneip, renowned natural practitioner of the 19th century, said "when you pas among the sick, chew Juniper Berries". A natural immunity is provide by this wonderful and good tasting herb. The proof is that he and his staff were able to treat the sick and remain immune to their afflictions. Of course, Juniper Berries were also given to the sick so that they might recover, and recover they did, in legions. Marshmallow, Carpenter’s Square and Mullein have long been noted as the remedies for swollen glands of the neck, underarms, breast and reproductive areas. They provide a rapid and effective immunity for these areas. Sweet Root (Calamus Root) is the most prized remedy of the North American Indian Nation, the Chippewas, and was given to those who were called "hopeless". And they got well, even when it was a viral problem! Black Cohosh and Sarsaparilla are not only poison antidotes for snake bite and venereal disease, they also neutralize all manner of poisons. Bacteria, viruses and fungus, including infectious yeasts, not only give off poisons that make you fee terrible, they also weaken you even more by attacking the immune system itself. Black Cohosh and Sarsaparilla handle this attack as well. Lapacho corrects inflammation of the reproductive organs and glands. The fact that the nutrition of some people is not just bad, it is appalling, makes a body which lacks tissue integrity and the perfect breeding ground for infections which roll over a feeble immune system that just cannot cope with the invasion. Reverse all this, eat decent food instead of "junk foods" and build your immune system so you can live well and without as much fear. Help your immune system and it will help you.

Combination: Juniper Berry, Mullein, Sweet Root, Carpenters’s Square, Black Cohosh, Sarsaparilla, Lapacho, Marshmallow.

Dose: 10 to 40 drops, 3 times per day, to build active immunity. 20 to 40 drops per day as a maintenance.

Golden Seal & Echinacea Combination

Is a combination, blended together at the request of practitioners, of two potent antibiotic herbs. One very visual test of Golden Seal’s quick antibiotic abilities is when applied externally to clear up Impetigo (a highly contagious skin condition characterized by numerous "crops" of puss filled eruptions). Golden Seal is also noted for its ability to act as a catalyst, that is to say, an agent which can make something work better and faster, or slower if needed, without being changed permanently itself in the process. Golden Seal gets the best out of the other herbs it works with, as well as doing a first class job itself at the same time. Echinacea is also noted as a potent immune system builder, as well as a surgeon without a knife. Echinacea, in this respect, works very well on even chronic swellings and old walled-off conditions such as cysts. Be sure to use a bowel maintenance program with Echinacea or Echinacea combinations as it is very necessary to be able to empty the wastes that are being cut loose, otherwise nausea can occur. When giving Golden Seal for an extended period of time, be sure to give a B-Complex source as well, such as 80 drops of Rice Bran Extract 3 times per day, or a cup of regular milk yogurt, as Golden Seal may also kill the "friendly bacteria" that normally live in a healthy bowel and produce B-Complex. When Echinacea does its work, as the surgeon without a knife, to rid the body of old walled off debris or cysts or just debris, the bowels must be open to prevent a "sick feeling".

Combination: Golden Seal, Echinacea.

Dose: Internally, 40 drops, 3 times per day. Externally, apply to the troubled area as needed. For cyst, apply directly to the skin, Vitamin E from 100 i.u. capsules (International Unit, i.u., a measure of liquid vitamins), Oil of Cajeput, and Herbal Adj. Then, saturate a single layer of absorbent gauze or natural fiber cheese cloth and lay this over the troubled area. Cover with plastic sandwich wrap and fix in place for overnight. The next morning, remove the application and discard it. Wash the area and allow to dry. Then, repeat this procedure for the daytime. Repeat until well.

NETTLE

Most people experience a stinging sensation when touching fresh Nettle leaves. After soaking the leaves in water for a few hours they lose their sting, but they do impart, to the water, a beautiful astringent quality. After shaving or as a facial, Nettle provides a marvelous antiseptic service and functions as a skin toner. On further examination of Nettle we find the properties necessary to correct the miseries of bladder inflammation, dizziness, spleen and lymphatic problems, liver and yes, end the "heartbreak of seborrhea, eczema, and psoriasis". Part of Nettle’s corrective powers are due to the presence of a rich source of the mineral element chromium which is essential for the pancreas to produce and utilize the hormone insulin. To restore hair color, the extract is massaged nightly into the scalp. For weight loss, Nettle is combined half and half with Bladderwrack, 40 drops of the mixture three to four times per day. It is now known that Nettle contains a generous supply of the easily absorbable minerals of calcium and magnesium. These mineral properties alone can help explain the remaining functions of Nettle. Number one, Nettle can help nursing mothers to start the flow of milk and continue it, and expect themselves and baby to be calm and free of cramping. Number two, Nettle, by itself, can be very useful to clean painful acids from muscles, joints and kidneys and thus, obtain much comfort for the sufferer.

Dose: 40 drops, three to four times per day. Externally, as needed to cover the area generously, three to four times per day, or more often if itching is involved.

N.S.S.-M

A natural herbal combination formulated by ND, Master Herbalist, Ph.D., and Licensed Therapist Frank Miesse. This was formulated after using these herbs for a number of years with clients who found a need to enhance their sexual vigor. With the advent of Viagra, many are looking for a stimulant to enhance their sex drive or to help them overcome problems due to medication, etc., that have robbed them of their natural desires. By formulating these five herbal extracts and combinations, many have found very pleasing results.

Blue Steele: This great extract combination gives us the very best of both worlds, physically and mentally. This blend contains twelve wonderful herbs: Damiana, Donq Quai, Korean Ginseng, Sarsaparilla, Saw Palmetto, Elderberry, False Unicorn Root, Yokum, Siberian Ginseng, French Vanilla, Wood Betony and Indian Tobacco. Without going into detail, ten of these strengthen desire (acts as an aphrodisiac) and help in hormonal balance, and the last one relaxes the system.

Pumpkin Seed: An excellent trace mineral. Contains your Zinc and Copper and helps a swollen prostate and is a fine source of Selenium.

Maca: Strengthens sexual functions in both men and women. It functions at the brain level (pituitary and hypothalamus) for good glandular balance. It is powerful for oxygen and emotions and helps to avoid sexual organ shrinkage with age.

Sarsaparilla: Acts like an electrolyte boost for restoring energy from fatigue and exhaustion. Historically, Sarsaparilla is a preventive factor against venereal disease. It is a fine hormonal herb for both men and women.

Gravel Root: Generally used for urinary tract problems and stone deposits. This herb wears many hats and is wonderful for relief of stiff and inflamed joints and tissue due to uric acid factors. It is helpful in restoring fertility for those who are suffering from infertility due to chemical or physical problems.

Comments: The present demand for a Viagra-type natural stimulant does exist, however, I do not believe that nature will give you the quick fix effect that the chemical product claims. Though the natural sex stimulant may be subtle, it will build to a healthier, consistent and daily attitude toward sexual desire and a balanced healthy body, allowing for many safe years of pleasure and a healthy life style.

Dosage: 20-40 drops taken 2 to 3 times daily in juice or water. More, as desired, will not harm you. This formula can be used by Men and Women and is user friendly.

END-J

Is a natural herbal combination formulated by Joseph Desrosiers, ND, CNHP.

END-J is especially formulated to fight systemic viral infections in both men and women. It is soothing and comforting for endometrial conditions.

Yarrow has been used for viral infections. It is good for cleaning mucous discharge from the bladder. It will stop bleeding if used internally.

Turkey Rhubarb is an astringent and a cathartic that causes rapid evacuation. It cleanses the entire digestive and elimination tract. It stimulates peristaltic action and glandular secretions, good for relaxing the colon and for pain.

Partridge Berries, also know as squaw vine, is very popular for women concerns. It is used to render childbirth safe and easy, and is a common cure for gonorrhea.

Marshmallow is very soothing and healing because of its mucilaginous properties. It is an anti-inflammatory in nature. Marshmallow is used also during kidney treatments to assist in the release of stones and gravel's.

Burdock is a strong liver purifying and hormone balancing herb. It is an excellent blood builder, purifier and cleanser. It has the ability to neutralize most poisons, relieving both the kidney and lymphatic system.

I have had problem skin all my life, but no more. I love the skin I’m in! All of my friends want to know what I’m doing to make me look like I’m glowing. I noticed right away after starting on the YTH.E.-I. that my elimination process had improved and my skin was clearer, smoother, and firmer without any cholesterol deposits under the surface. In a few more weeks my fingernails were no longer dry and brittle. They stopped peeling and the vertical ridges were disappearing, and now I can almost see them growing. For the first time in years, they are smooth and healthy looking, like when I was younger. Since the outward appearance is a reflection of the condition of the body on the inside, this must mean that I am much healthier now that I’m taking YTH.E.-I. -SLB,50

I sit in front of a computer all day and because of the radiation exposure everything I touched shocked me. Since I have been taking YTH.E.-I., this has decreased considerably.

Thank you so very much for this product. I can hardly wait to see what the long-term results will be. – LI,32

The first thing I noticed was an increase in my libido, and I can’t believe how my energy has soared since I started taking YTH.E.-I. I’m just like the energizer bunny. I just keep going and going and going. I no longer have joint pain or muscle soreness. Thanks for making YTH.E.-I. I hope I never have to be without it.

Testimonials

When I began taking MPS.-I., I would have panicky feelings followed by a hot flash and sweating all throughout the day. They would also wake me during the night. After taking MPS.-I. faithfully for 5 weeks, I noticed I was no longer having the terrible panicky feelings, my hot flashes were less intense and I was having a lot less of them. After 6 weeks the hot flashes were completely gone and I can sleep throughout the night. Hurray! It goes without saying that I am also more pleasant to be with. Thank you so much! I took 40 drops morning and afternoon, and 60 drops at night for 4-5 weeks. Now I do a maintenance dose of 60 drops (1/2 tsp.) morning and night. – SLI

I really want to enjoy this part of my life (after 50) but the menopausal symptoms were really making it hard. I was tired all the time, irritable and having hot flashes. I refuse to go on HRT because of the negative side effects. After taking MPS.-I. for several weeks I had more energy, my mood was lifted and I was having a lot less hot flashes. After 6 or 7 weeks the hot flashes vanished! This is terrific because other products on the market I’ve tried said to allow 3 months for results. I hope I never run out of MPS.-I.! - GMS

I am so glad I found this formula for menopause. Everything else I saw had soy in it, which is a good thing unless you are allergic to it, which I am. Now that I am taking MPS.-I., I’m not as nervous, I sleep better, and there are no more panic attacks or hot flashes. Please don’t stop making it! -PSH

A.R.T.-C

Arthritis Relief Team-Castro

This natural herbal formula was formulated by Pat Castro.

This product is used for those suffering from Arthritis, and it also lubricates stiff joints, so one can bend and kneel freely. In my research and testing I found that the Research Formula enhances the ART-C.

I like to share good things with my friends and acquaintances. The following are some experiences that my friends and I have had using ART-C and Research Formula.

I have experienced several knee injuries and finally my knees began to give me problems. I had trouble bending my knees, as well as lingering pain. I read about different herbs to help me. My research led me to use a special blend of Licorice Root, Devil’s Claw, Yucca and Aloe. I took 40 drops 3 times a day of ART-C and Research Formula. In about 3 days my pain had decreased and I had more flexibility! Now I can bend my knees and kneel without pain. Also an added benefit, my back pain is relieved! Since I am not always faithful in taking the herbs I need, when I forget to take the ART-C and Research Formula the pain and restricted flexibility returns. So when I feel the pain I have two good formulas to assist me. The secret is, I take both formulas together. May you see and feel the difference as you use these formulas. -Sincerely, Pat Castro.

I was so thrilled when Pat Castro suggested I try the ART-C and Research Formula for the pain I have suffered in my back and especially my knees. I could not bend my knees without suffering excruciating pain. In less than a week I could actually work in my flower beds and was able to get around with no pain. –BG, in TX.

A man in his sixties was suffering from stiff and painful joints. He took a one ounce bottle of ART-C and one ounce bottle of Research Formula, at the same time. In less than a week he experienced soothing relief and increased flexibility. He was so excited he came back for larger bottles of ART-C and the Research Formula. He is extremely happy!

Combination: Devils Claw, Licorice Root, Yucca, & Aloe.

Research Formula Combination: Sea Vegetables and Algae with Minerals.

Dosage: Suggested amount for both ART-C and Research Formula is: 40 drops, 2 to 3 times per day. One may increase the amount, if necessary.

Information about the Research Formula, can be found in the Supplement Volume of Herbal Extracts Book by A.B. Howard.

BIG FIVE

Repair and relief of pain for back, neck, joints and headaches. Sports activities, accidents, injuries, sports injuries, massage therapy work, arthritic and sore joint problems. Swollen discs, seizures, folk remedy for diseases described as "M.S.", "M.D.", and "Lou Gehrig's Disease". Release of tension in area before massage therapy or chiropractic adjustment and benefits last longer.

COMBINATION: Arnica, B.& N.C.-W (Brain and Nerve Cocktail), Herbal Adjustment, Ol' #11 (Old #11), Rue.

BIG FIVE ADDENDUM: The object of this formula is to have a powerful, premixed herbal formula for relief and repair of back, neck, joint and headache problems. External applications are made to the areas in trouble. Arnica removes the physical shock to the nervous system which allows healing to take place and prevents further trauma. The Brain & Nerve Cocktail portion of the formula provides nourishment for the glands in the brain, the pituitary, pineal, hypothalmus, the brain itself, and the involuntary nervous system of the body. Herbal Adjustment is a combination of herbs which promotes better circulation and releases spasticities. This promotes rapid repair and relief of pain. Ol'# 11 is an excellent tried-and-true repair combination for any bone, flesh or cartilage structure in the body. Rue is a specific for sore muscles and injured joints. CAUTION: Rue may bring on the menstrual flow, and as such it is not advisable to use if pregant or if pregnancy is desired. Formula 4 can be used in place of BIG 5 as it does not contain Rue. This multi-combination is a formula which incorporates many functions into one application, each of which has proven its function separately. Together, they make a powerful tool in the hands of a person for repair and relief of pain. Apply to the spine, from the tip of the tailbone up the spine (the width of the hand) on to the neck and on the scalp to the top of the head. Additionally, around the ears, down the neck and out to the shoulders, and on the temples and forehead. Do not apply to underarms, private areas or get in eyes. No permanent damage has been known to occur, but if the person does not know this, they may panic, as the formula produces the sensation of great heat. If an accident occurs, remain calm and flush with water. Peace will return again soon. This same procedure can also be used for correcting headaches. After application of the *BIG FIVE, also apply either Peppermint Oil or Oil of Cajeput to complete the pain relieving, corrective procedure. In the area where the injury has occurred or physical shock of the nervous system has occurred there may be an increased sensation of heat. Thus, the problem area is especially benefited. The effects of the combination usually last for at least 3-4 hours.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE: *External application only. Repeat as needed, one to three times per day for relief of pain and then daily until healed. In conditions described as seizures, "M.S.", "M.D." and "Lou Gehrig's Disease", after application of Oil of Cajeput or Peppermint Oil, apply peanut oil to the spine and neck, after warming first in the hand, as an insulation for the nerves. Use peanut oil, without a preservative, from the health food store and keep refrigerated after opening. A novel use of the Big Five for sports use is to put 1 oz. of the extract in a 1 pint (1/2 liter) spray bottle of distilled water, then add 3 drops of peppermint oil. Shake the mixture well to mix the peppermint oil with the water and extract each time before using. Spray on legs or joints before activities such as bicycling, skating or running to keep muscles from cramping and extend performance abilities. If applying the extract full strength, avoid prolonged contact with sunlight, as some individuals have rather sensitive skin and need extra protection to avoid redness or soreness occurring due to interaction with sunlight.

* As this formula contains Arnica, which can, in rare instances be somewhat toxic to some individuals and the sensation of heat is produced by Capsicum, the precaution of external use only is applied to this combination. Oil of Cajeput and Peppermint also produce a great cooling and or burning sensation, so avoid contact to eyes, underarm or private areas as well.

BIG FIVE PLUS TWO

Ingredients: Peppermint & Oil of Cajeput have been added. (For external use only)

For external use only.

Excellent first-aid for bruises, sprains, broken bones or concussions. Make several applications externally to the area until relief is felt. This is a very swift remedy. An overnight soak can be made for serious cases by putting 40 to 80 drops in ½ cup of water and dampening a cloth or gauze with the solution and covering the injured area. Cover this with plastic sandwich wrap and hold in place with a bandage. Change the dressing once a day and allow the area to dry before reapplying the dressing.
If the skin is sensitive, then apply vitamin E oil from 100 i.u. (International Unit) capsules prior to the dressing. The area can also be washed between dressings. Be sure to discard old dressings and never reuse. Most sprains respond rapidly and are usually corrected with a single overnight dressing or a simple single external application by rubbing in the drops. Arnica can also be used on the pulse points - 5 to 10 drops on each wrist and temple and back of the neck for emotional and physical shocks, upsets, anxiety or when frightened. 1 to 5 drops a day reduces cholesterol when rubbed on the pulse points in a similar manner.

MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY) - Is a tragic and serious wasting away disease of the muscles of the body. Jake Schwartz and Sam Schwartz from Amish Country in Indiana did not accept this death pronouncement for their friends and worked diligently to find the cause of this problem. Their research and the work of others revealed the cause to be a Copper and Zinc imbalance within the body. An excess of Zinc causes a Copper deficiency. When there is too much Zinc, Copper is not absorbed properly and collagen and muscle tissue, which gives muscles their mass and size, cannot be produced and or replaced and the body wastes away. The person may, in advanced stages, resemble a walking skeleton. Environmental Zinc sources such as breathing Zinc fumes from manufacturing, drinking from chemically polluted ground water sources and from drinking particularly acid drinks from containers that have Zinc in their composition can be the cause of such imbalances. After using balanced Copper and Zinc herbal formulas on their friends and acquaintances, they are satisfied the problem can be solved and the disease of Muscular Dystrophy reversed. It is not recommended that a colloidal form of Copper be used to attack the problem. The use of Silver may also stop the utilization of Copper and disrupt the body’s DNA (genetic material). You can say this is the genetic link when the body’s normal use of natural Copper is interfered with. Zinc and Copper are said to "fight" each other. That is to say, if you have too much of one it keeps the other from being absorbed and then the person will suffer from a deficiency. The beautiful part of using herbs is that they have natural control mechanisms within them to balance out the system with respect to Copper and Zinc even when an herb contains both Copper and Zinc. The formula found to be most effective in correcting Muscular Dystrophy contains the following herbs: SCULLCAP, SAGE, DANDELION ROOT, PLANTAIN, CHIPPEWA PINE AND BLUE VERVAIN.

DOSAGE: The recommended daily use is 1 tsp. 3 times per day.
