Super-size herbal teas and juices can contain 300 or more calories in a single bottle. While calories per serving may be listed at 100, the bottle could contain two or more servings—the old multiple-servings-in-the-innocuous-container trick. Make sure you don't fall for it and wind up getting double or triple the calories you bargained for. • Choose healthy liquid snacks. For snacks, try "liquid foods" such as vegetable cocktails. Soy protein drinks are also good choices and leave you feeling full longer because of the hunger-supressing effects of protein.

Consider taking some before each meal per the manufacturer's instructions. herbal bitters that include gentian and artichoke, cardamom, fennel, ginger, and dandelion are also available in more concentrated forms that can be added to water and taken as an elixir before meals. Confused about Eggs? If so, you're not alone. It's hard to keep up with egg research. In general, we like eggs, especially the new omega eggs (which have been created to be high in omega-3 fats, accomplished by feeding the chickens themselves more omega-3s). There are two major concerns with eggs: 1.

Senior FDA officials suppressed initial findings on suicide link to antidepressant drugs

Keep in mind the contrast here between how conventional medicines are treated and how nutritional supplements or herbal medicines would be treated. Imagine, for a moment, that the FDA found out that some nutritional supplement or herb caused children to have a 180% increase in suicidal tendencies. Do you think that would be front-page news? You bet it would be! And the FDA would be grabbing headlines around the nation, warning people that herb X was killing their children. The herb would be taken off the market, and inventories would be confiscated. Importation of the herb would be banned.

We work closely with farmers in the area," Vinod continues, "learning and sharing how to make herbal pesticides and compost. Nature is balanced. What disease you have in the field, you find a solution in the field. Farmers are now coming to us, letting us know what they need. One wants vegetables well suited to dry conditions. Another, something responsive to irrigation; another, grains able to withstand high wind velocity.

We stopped the Premarin and recommended lifestyle changes (including more exercise and a better, caffeine- and sugar-free diet), supplements including vitamin E and vitamin B complex, and such herbal remedies as Dong Quai and black cohosh. We also put her on a very low, temporary dose of estrogen (the new FDA-approved human [or bio-identical] estrogen, synthesized from soybeans as opposed to a horse's estrogen), transmitted through the skin in the form of a patch.
Follow the guidance of an experienced practitioner unless otherwise indicated here for specific problems. herbal antioxidants include: • Ashwaganda—(Withania somniferd), an ancient Ayurvedic or Indian ginsenglike herb. • Chocolate (Theobroma cacao)—unfortunately, this must be taken in large doses to be effective and is usually found with sugar and dairy products added.
Experiment with herbal combinations or blends to find the best effect for you. Consider testing The most common sleep disorder (and most underdiagnosed) is sleep apnea. If you experience excessive daytime sleepiness, fatigue, snoring, and have been seen to stop breathing in the middle of the night by a partner, you could be one of the many undiagnosed sufferers of this condition. Your risk of increased blood pressure and heart disease is high; diagnosis and treatment are necessary. Get an overnight sleep study done in a sleep lab. It might just save your life! 2.

Yet care should be taken that we not exchange a chemical stressor for an herbal stressor. Just as an example, guarana has a lot of caffeine in it and should be avoided. Ginkgo is an herb which is convincing the medical community to finally take a serious look at herbal healing properties. It has undergone intense medical scrutiny. Ginkgo has been the subject of over 300 scientific studies. It is successfully addressing many of the conditions which affect the elderly.

The inquiry plodded along as hospital officials looked for every explanation possible—including herbal tea—other than the obvious one. Finally, they called in local law-enforcement authorities. Four patients had raised insulin levels and two had lethal levels of digoxin, a heart medication. After the forty-four-year-old Cullen was charged with murder in the death of a Catholic priest and attempted murder of another patient, he confessed to killing between thirty and forty patients at hospitals and a nursing home where he had worked.

My diet changed as I stopped relying on caffeine and sugar to keep me going, and instead started using nutrients and herbal therapies that could heal my digestive system and repair my damaged immune system. Now, when my body talked, I listened. This journey to health took me from learning about and addressing my body's nutritional biochemistry and cellular biology through a process of psychological and spiritual renewal. It allowed me to heal completely, and gave me the basis from which I now heal others.

The Garlic Cure

K, Miami RED AND INFLAMED EYES Mary is an herbal dog, so I sought an herbal solution when her eyes became red and inflamed: 25 to 50 drops of Kyolic liquid garlic mixed into an ounce of distilled water, applied with an eye-dropper one to four times daily. I don't like playing around with eyes, so I made an appointment with my vet for 4:40 that afternoon. However, by 4:00 o 'clock, Mary's eyes looked so well that I almost canceled the appointment. Then I decided to go anyhow to confirm or reject my diagnosis of conjunctivitis.

Group of doctors accuses drug companies of inventing fictitious diseases to sell more prescription drugs

Or if a parent believes drugs are dangerous and tries to treat their child with natural herbal therapies or nutrition, the state can come in and take away that child and declare the parent to be mentally incompetent because they didn't use synthetic chemicals as part of their medical treatment. As a service to these drug companies, I've decided to offer them some names for additional diseases they should invent and market drugs for. The first should be "Recurring Hallucinogenesis Disease" (RHD). This happens when people get tired in the evening.

Beck warned that cells may take up medical drugs and herbal medicines at a much higher rate during the zapping, due to a process called electroporation; this may cause drug overdosing. Originally, he recommended not using drugs and other potentially dangerous remedies, including raw garlic, during the weeks and months of treatment. However, in later interviews, he softened his stand and advised cautiously taking needed drugs or potentially dangerous remedies after the daily zapping rather than beforehand.
Also try oxygen therapies alternating with high antioxidant intake, intestinal sanitation, and herbal parasite cure, and continue longer with wormwood. Colloidal silver, copper salicylate or colloidal copper, echinacea, MSM, propolis, and other natural antibiotics can be beneficial, along with a Beck-type electronic zapper and magnetic pulser, Basic Cleanse, and emotional and mind therapies. (See Infections and Inflammations and Candidiasis below.
Some traditionally brewed beers as well as some herbal liquors can be beneficial to stimulate the digestion. However, in general it is better to minimize alcohol intake and to test yourself against any preferred brands for food sensitivity. An allergy is commonly to a raw material or additive rather than to the alcohol itself. Raw Food Diet: From my experiences of healing as well as from reading many published reports, it is clear that a raw food diet is not only the most natural but also the most effective nutritional measure for healing and rejuvenation.
Commonly used are herbal remedies, colloidal minerals, natural vitamins, or fresh vegetable juice. Bioenergy: If we eat fresh raw food, we gain additional bioenergy. If we eat precooked or processed food and drink dead water, then our body loses bioenergy by charging the ingested food or drink from its own energy store. Rainwater is energized, especially during thunderstorms and if it comes as showers on sunny days. However, the maximum benefit is gained if the rainwater is collected and used without it touching metal.
It will greatly speed up the elimination and lessen your discomfort during the fast if you take a strong laxative on the first morning of the fast, using an isotonic flush, herbal laxative, or a tablespoon of Epsom salt in water; in addition, drink a lot of pure water. The most reliable fast is on pure water only, which means unchlorinated and unfluori-dated, and not stored in plastic containers. In a less strict form, it should be all right to use a weak, unsweetened herb tea of a variety you do not habitually use.

Nicolas Monardes of Seville, who wrote his herbal on the flora of America in 1569, Joyful Newes Out of the New Founde World.

Big Tobacco racketeering charges mirror pharmaceutical industry crimes

As doctors learn more about the deception of the drug industry and the dangers of prescription drugs, increasing numbers of them will turn to alternative medicine, herbal medicine, nutrition, prevention and other modalities that aren't hyped by a criminal-minded industry like Big Pharma. In time, physicians will look upon prescription drugs in much the same way tobacco products are viewed today.

Biomimetics breakthroughs: studying nature to develop practical technology for mankind

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
Nowhere is this more true than in medicinal herbs, where nature has already provided an abundance of disease-preventing herbal medicines all around us -- in the deserts, forests, plains and jungles of the world. And yet only around 2% of the world's plant species have even been studied for possible medicinal benefits. Clearly, there are miraculous phytochemicals just waiting to be discovered and leveraged for the healing of chronic disease. Yet biomimetics is really more about the physics of nature rather than the chemistry.

One night she dreamed about an old man in the mountains who could assist her; searching him out, she took the herbal remedy he offered and soon bore a child. Later, when she made the journey back to see and thank him, she thanked him so prettily that he (who was actually a deity in disguise) filled the woods with this miraculous plant. The plant was ginseng, and has become a Chinese symbol of strength, vigor, long life, and clear judgment. Surpassing even the truffle throughout history as a precious aphrodisiac, one conquering cancer to rejuvenating male sexuality.

And yet FDA regulations don't allow the manufacturers of these herbal products to tell you that they boost your defense against the flu and other infectious diseases. However, as an independent journalists and health commentator with absolutely no financial ties to these products or their manufacturers, I can give you an honest review of the products and tell you exactly what the research shows them to be good for.
After reviewing literally hundreds of these foods, vitamins, minerals, and herbal supplements, I have narrowed the list to a short selection of the most powerful supplements and antiviral products that can be used to survive the next global pandemic. These will be covered in detail in the book. One of the best foods you can eat, by the way, for its antiviral properties, is garlic. Research also suggest that if you consume shiitake mushrooms, ginger and garlic on a daily basis, your immune system function will be strongly enhanced, dramatically boosting your defense against any flu.

General Information The stevia plant, first cultivated in Paraguay, has been used as an herbal sweetener for centuries in South America. The Guarani Indians of Paraguay have long used it to make a sweet tea, and the dried leaves and twigs of the plant are commonly sold in local markets and pharmacies. An extract is made of the leaves and flowers. Also called "sweet leaf" or "sweet herb," stevia contains a very sweet component called stevioside, with a sweetening effect similar to cane sugar.
Usually very mild, with an occasional pungent aberration, this variety has a remarkably full, earthy, herbal, and fruity flavor and aroma; cooked and peeled it develops even greater taste and tenderness. With thick flesh that makes it perfect for stuffing, this versatile pepper is a delicious, enlivening addition to corn dishes, soups, vegetables, sauces, and salads. Dried anchos are flat, wrinkled, and heart-shaped, ranging in color from oxblood to almost black. Rehydrated, they become crimson again.

In fact, some "teas" are not teas at all. "Herbal teas," for instance, are made from herbs, not tea leaves, so they don't really qualify. Essentially, there are only three types of tea—black, green, and oolong— and they come from the leaves of the tropical evergreen tea plant called Camellia sinensis. Black tea is made from tea leaves that have been fermented, heated, and dried to produce the characteristic English tea flavor and a red-brown to black color.

As a further precaution, periodically use an herbal antiparasite program (see step 44) and possibly an electronic blood purifier (step 19). With these precautions, raw meat should be safe and healthy, while I regard all cooked meat as more or less unhealthy, partly because of its lack of enzymes, and also because of the formation of carcinogenic chemicals when heated above the boiling point. (For further ideas on eating meat raw and links to related sites, see: www.rawpaleodiet.org.

The Healing Miracle of Coconut Oil

I started to use more natural herbal soaps and shampoos. As before, the dandruff came roaring back in full force. I tried everything natural I could find in an attempt to control it. Nothing seemed to work. I eventually put some coconut oil in my hair as described above and washed it out several hours later. The result was phenomenal. After a single application all the dandruff was gone. I couldn't believe it was that easy. Nothing except medicated shampoos had worked this well before. I now had a natural product that not only cleared up my dandruff but was good for my hair and scalp as well.
