Emergencies are the conditions which people are most afraid of and the least prepared for. Being prepared with a little knowlege of homeopathic remedies can prevent a worse problem from developing in an emergency and even cure the problem. This is a wonderful power in the realm of self healing. There are many acute disorders and emergency situations. Some are caused by an illness or accident, others are caused by man-made toxins, and still others are caused by conventional medical drugs and procedures. It's very healthy to avoid medical drugs and procedures whenever possible because they tend to cause what they call "side-effects." These are actually iatrogenic disorders, disorders caused by the medical treatment itself. Sometimes these are impossible to avoid because one finds oneself in a situation where the benefits of modern medicine or surgery are needed. But, too many patients are conditioned to believe that drugs and knives are the only recourse because the authority-figure Doctor says so. Whatever the case, there are homeopathic remedies that will either prevent the need for "drugs and knives" or cure the problems they cause. Being self-sufficient in dealing with acute disorders that are not life threatening is very possible if you pay careful attention. I will give you the homeopathic information to do this. But please understand that for chronic health problems, one needs to consult a true classical homeopath. You may also prefer to consult with a homeopath for your acute problems. You can contact me for treatment of all these problems.

The recommended potencies are listed for each indicated homeopathic remedy. The dosing per day is dependent upon the individuals symptoms and responses. See Homeopathic Guidelines for more on this.

Homeopathy Tips for 8/18/09 Head Injuries

Head injuries are the leading cause of death in males under the age of 35. There are approximately 300,000 people seen by physicians with head injury each year. Approximately 200,00 of these people will recover 80% of their pre-injury faculties within six months of their injury and 100% within eighteen months. Homeopathy can often help. Head injuries can range from mild to severe and can often be fatal. It is imperative to get proper medical care in head injuries. Most head injuries today come as a result of impact trauma due to motor vehicles. Some percentage can be prevented by wearing seat belts in autos and helmets while riding motorcycles. It can sometimes be difficult to determine a severe injury from a more milder concussion after head trauma. Concussion is the most common effect of head injury. Symptoms of concussion are staring, weeping, and confusion. This can happen even with a mild head in jury. Other symptoms include drowsiness, dizziness, slow ideation, headaches, nausea and vomiting, convulsions or loss of consciousness and coma. All head injuries exhibiting any of these symptoms should be taken to emergency care as soon as possible for observation and evaluation. Internal bleeding can damage the brain and if left untreated can form clots that can leave permanent damage. Surgery is often needed in head trauma to relieve pressure around the brain or to stop bleeding. Headaches that persist after a head injury are a sign that something may be more serious and needing further medical attention. Head injury victims should not be moved until emergency personnel have arrived. Any injury to the head could also cause spinal damage that could lead to increased complications and possible paralysis if the spinal cord is effected. Cover the victim to help with heat loss and shock. Be sure the airway is cleared and there is no obstruction to breathing. If the person is vomiting or convulsing gently rolling them to their side with their head facing downward and mouth open to help prevent suffocation. Whole body splinting can help prevent more spinal damage but should be done by emergency medical personnel. Any lacerations with bleeding should have pressure applied to the wound to prevent blood loss. Any alterations in breathing after a head injury should be cause for alarm. Often the victim will want to sleep. Wake them every 15 minutes to check their vital signs. Unequal pupil size or unresponsiveness to light will be signs of concussion and require monitoring or evaluation for more severe injury. Neurological exams, CAT scans and MRIs are the most comm on diagnostic tools for determining the severity of head injury. Often people with mild head injury will tell you everything is OK and nothing is wrong. They may still exhibit mood changes, and headaches. Post-concussion syndrome is a condition that may present a variety of symptoms. Most common are fatigue, confusion, difficult concentration, insomnia, dizziness,

Observe the person closely and if any of the warning signs occur, do not hesitate to get them to an emergency care hospital. Administer homeopathic remedies as soon as possible based on the condition of the person. In every case Arnica will be indicated and you cannot go wrong.

Homeopathy Tips for 1/06/09 Cough

Its the new year and the cold season is upon us now. I hear the sound of the cough due to common cold about everywhere I go. Here are some tips for helping with homeopathy. The cough is a natural way for the body to remove phlegm. It should not be suppressed. Each person has their particular expression of their bodys attempts to heal. Giving allopathic cough suppressants will not help their healing process and should be avoided. If some relief for minor throat irritation is needed try equal parts lemon juice, honey and warm water. Take a teaspoon at a time and hold in the mouth and swallow to coat the throat. It can be very soothing. Avoid medicated cough drops that have camphor, menthol and eucalyptus. They can interfere with the healing response to the well selected homeopathic remedy. As in the case of any infectious disease watch closely that the cough does not develop into a more serious condition. Cough due to the common cold is usually during the resolution of the infection. Fever should have already passed. If a fever accompanies the cough and is persistent then a more serious condition may exist.

P a g e | 19

Homeopathy Tips for 11/19/13 Post Operative Care

One of the most viewed newsletters we have had has been the Homeopathy Tips for 2/24/09 Surgery Protocol. Todays newsletter will deal with remedies that may be useful after surgery and operations. Recuperation and care after surgery are important. Common sense plays a big part is care. It is necessary to rest, get plenty of fluids and have proper hygiene. But things can go

P a g e | 20

wrong after surgery and healing can be delayed. It is then necessary to receive the case and give the best remedies for the situation. Often this is in a hospital setting and it may be necessary to work closely with the doctors or nurses who are treating the person. You must have a good understanding of homeopathy to explain the need for certain remedies. Sometimes the allopathic medical practitioners know nothing of homeopathy and will be very hesitant to approve a remedy when other drugs are being prescribed. It is necessary to be able to explain how homeopathy is not a drug and has no drug interaction; it is safe when well indicated and that your concern for the person is as great as theirs is. A wide variety of conditions can occur after surgery. I can not possible refer to all of them here. But the most common symptoms are trauma and everything related to it. This is why Arnica is such a great remedy to take prior to a surgery and post surgery. Other symptoms can appear also and it might be good to go over a few of the more common ones here. Any surgery involves cutting and hence hemorrhage and loss of blood. Extensive surgeries can leave a person very depleted. Sometimes the surgery will involve the stretching of tissues when the wound is closed. Infection is always a concern and homeopathy can help very much. Anesthesia and shock after surgery can weaken our being. Nervous exhaustion, fear and anxiety may happen. At worse coma and death can be a final outcome. As with all cases we need to pay particular attention to the etiology of the case (what has happened) and those symptoms that are unique to the case (strange, rare and peculiar). Select remedies that have an affinity to the condition or body part being effected. Pay attention to their mental state. Often this can be a very big indicator of a remedy. Understand the sensations of pain and discomfort they speak of. But dont loose sight of why this would be happening. Most reactions a person has after surgery will be considered common. Know that when suffering is involved, there may be a great remedy that can help deeply. Here are a list of common rubrics from the Complete 3013 Repertory and the remedies;

Arnica is the most common and useful remedy after any trauma, especially surgery. It can help the ill effects of anesthesia, shock, anxiety, fear, bruising, bleeding, cuts and lacerations along with general weakness. Read Materia Medica on this and all listed remedies above and you will start to see the pattern of how surgery is a trauma and how these remedies can help. Below I will go over briefly a few remedies that are more common and very useful;

Weakness.

Treat post operative conditions as if they are an acute or emergency prescription. Most often the 30C potency will be sufficient. Repeat the remedy often as necessary. Sometimes it is necessary to give the remedy every 15 minutes or less in an emergency. If the person is stable then repeating the remedy from hourly to multiple times per day is useful. As with any remedy we are looking for a response. As long as the response is continuing then the repetition is not necessary. When the response to the remedy does not seem to be sustained then go to a higher potency like a 200C or 1M. This is only a partial list of remedies that are more common and useful. Study the remedies in the rubric After operations, above. They will prove to be very useful. Homeopathy can be very helpful in speeding up a persons recovery from an operation. Having these remedies available prior to a planned operation is being prepared. Being able to explain homeopathy to other health care professionals is very important. We must work with those practitioners who we have trusted our health care to also. If we can not explain homeopathy and why our client needs to take a particular homeopathic medication then we are failing homeopathy and our client. Homeopathy works and can make a very big difference in a persons post operative care.

Acid Reflux or GERD Natural Remedies

See also Heartburn or Gastroparesis Your stomach acid helps digest your food. This stomach acid is very strong - the same acidity as battery acid. While the stomach can handle this, the more sensitive esophagus cannot. When the stomach sphincter is too weak, stomach acid regurgitates up into the esophagus, and causes a burning sensation called Heartburn. While occasional heartburn is common, more frequent, ongoing heartburn may be Acid Reflux, or GERD. Symptoms of acid reflux include burning chest pain, sour taste in the mouth, difficulty swallowing, belching, hoarseness, and sometimes breathing difficulties. Acid Reflux symptoms are worse from lying down or bending over.

P a g e | 23

Acid Reflux may be caused by a poor diet with too much citrus, certain spices, and fatty or irritating foods. Check with your doctor as some medications promote acid reflux. Smoking, alcohol, coffee, and other foods will make Acid Reflux symptoms worse. Doctors treatment for acid reflux usually entails antacids and proton pump inhibitors that stop or slow down stomach acid, which may cause nutritional deficiencies and contribute to osteoporosis and immune dysfunction. They especially reduce B vitamins, iron and calcium. The goal from a natural perspective to help Acid Reflux is to first relieve symptoms with natural remedies, and then correct the dietary imbalances. Start with a diet of fresh fruits and vegetables and mild meats such as chicken, turkey and fish, then add cell salts, homeopathy, and herbs to correct the underlying causes of acid reflux. Additionally, it is important to address stressful conditions in a persons life.

Natural Acne (Cystic Acne) Remedies

See also Teen Acne Remedies Cystic acne is seen as red hard 4-6 millimeter pustules on the face, back or chest. The pustules may connect and scar. It is often a social problem, linked emotionally to appearance. Causes of acne are usually attributed to poor dietary habits. It can also be caused or made worse with iodine products (medication or seaweed, kelp, etc) or fluoride products as they tend to irritate the skin, (mostly externally like toothpaste). One of the main problems with acne is hormonal imbalance which causes excessive androgens (important hormone for development of male characteristics and precursor of estrogen) in both men and women. This brings excessive oil in the skin. For women, and especially those who struggle with facial hair, the main culprit affecting hormonal balance is chemical birth control. Modern medicine treats acne with antibiotics and anti-bacterial washes, and sometimes even steroids. While somewhat effective, one also takes the side effects of the drugs with long-term usage. Naturally, to avoid acne, you should improve your diet by staying away from fried and processed foods. Also stay away from iodine and fluoride products and chemical birth control. Dietary concerns: As always, eliminate tobacco, alcohol, coffee, and sodas.
Nutrition for acne includes the dietary supplements of Chromium chromate and Zinc. They have been shown to be helpful in eliminating acne. It takes 6 to 8 weeks with the use of the following selection of remedies to see best results.

Topical Acne Skin Remedies To kill bacteria, dilute 1 drop Tea tree essential oil into 20 drops Almond oil and use 2 times a day on the affected area. Calendula crme is a natural antibacterial and has skin-healing properties; may also be used twice daily.

Teen Acne (Juvenile or Acne) Natural Remedies

See also Acne Natural Remedies Acne is a skin condition that affects mostly teens; it produces noticeable pimples on the face head and neck, and sometimes the back. Secondary are the social and emotional issues as appearance is very important during this time of life. The cause of juvenile acne is hormonal changes from puberty, mostly in teen girls and boys. This hormonal activity causes the sweat glands to produce oil which gets inflamed or may get infected by bacterial invasions, creating breakouts called acne. There may be clear-to-white or yellow pus. Also allergy issues may cause teen acne; look for sensitivity to dust or sanitary issues on the skin.

P a g e | 27

Medical treatments for acne include antibiotics which always have side effects and cause other problems. Anti-bacterial creams are also for symptomatic relief and do not address the cause.

Natural Acne Rosacea Remedies

See also Teen Acne Remedies, Cystic Acne Facial skin redness, acne rosacea looks like acne in adults. Fairly common in those 40 50 years old, symptoms of acne rosacea include redness of nose, cheeks or both; there may be pimples on the forehead, nose, cheeks and chin. Acne rosacea also consists of long-term facial redness with the background of spider veins. The spider veins are usually on the cheeks. Causes of acne rosacea, say the medical community, are allergic reactions or symptoms of stress. Medical treatments use antibiotics or topical gels that reduce symptoms which must be used almost indefinitely and may have severe side effects; they are also quite expensive. From the natural viewpoint, acne rosacea is a reaction to stress, and may be a depletion of Bvitamins. Acne rosacea has been shown to include digestive disturbances involving one or more digestive organs such as the stomach, pancreas, liver, gallbladder and colon, etc. I have seen natural solutions very successful, but it does take weeks to months to be free of this condition. Symptomatic relief can happen within a few days. Help your digestive system by avoiding spicy foods and alcohol. Also eliminate tobacco, black tea, and fast foods.

See also Homeopathy for Children class notes which includes additional homeopathic remedies for ADD/ADHD. Attention deficit hyperactive disorder or ADHD affects children as well as adults. Symptoms include dysfunctional behaviors such as poor concentration, difficulty in school, impulsiveness, and erratic emotions. Natural remedies help support the imbalances in the nervous system. Treatments include behavior modification, special diet, flower essences, essential oils, herbs, and other natural remedies for ADHD symptoms. Medical treatment for ADHD often uses drugs made of stimulants that may stunt the growth of a child, exhaust the nervous system, and become addictive along with all the other side effects. Homeopathic remedies for ADHD are more successful when used in combination with nervine herbs. Specific herbs calm overall tension. Homeopathy for ADHD is very specific to each child; homeopathic remedies are compatible with conventional treatment. One challenge in finding the right homeopathic remedy for a specific child with ADHD is discovering the childs personality underneath the drug facade. Improvement, while using homeopathy for ADHD, can still be seen while children are on medication. A second challenge is reducing drugs slowly, one at a time, under your doctors supervision. Improvement in the symptoms of ADHD may be seen in minutes, hours, days, weeks, or months. You may need to try several homeopathic remedies for ADHD, maybe several at the same time, and use them for 1 to 2 months each. Diet for ADHD In a diet for ADHD it is helpful to change the diet for the entire family, not just the child. Refer to Dr. Christophers Mucusless Diet. Be prepared for resistance for the first couple of weeks and then a very pleasing improvement thereafter. Remember sugar and other carbohydrates create nervousness and instability in both children and adults. Also, a lack of good oils such as fish and flax oil or too much of rancid, bad oils, like those in French fries, can cause mental weakness and worsen the problem. In summary, avoid sugar and bad oils and make sure there are enough good oils in a healthy diet for ADHD. Supplements are helpful when used along with the Natural Healing Protocol below. DHA a fish oil extract, is helpful, but must be taken over a several-month period. Also use a good Vitamin B-complex that feeds the nerves.

When your adrenal glands are so fatigued, it causes low energy, tiredness, exhaustion, weakness, allergies, sleep problems, low sex drive, poor concentration, and the inability to cope with stress. Causes may come from nutritional deficiencies, adrenal or pituitary tumors, or prolonged stress. Modern medicine often ignores the causes and uses steroids or stimulants with their attending side effects. Use the natural way to help adrenal fatigue through good nutrition and helpful supplements to rehabilitate the adrenals.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) Natural Remedies

Chronic fatigue (CFS) is a debilitating disorder where the patient is plagued by overwhelming fatigue. Symptoms include chronic exhaustion, joint pains, sore throat, headaches, muscle aches, and glandular swelling. Common cause is unknown, and is often frustrating for sufferers.

P a g e | 35

Modern medicine has very little answers and mostly prescribes rest. When pressed, they may prescribe stimulants. The natural perspective of chronic fatigue is generally a stress response in over-achieving and perfectionist women; statistically those who are executive women in their 30s to 50s experience symptoms. This may also cause hypersensitivity to environmental conditions, often emotionally caused. Also see Stress & Exhaustion Remedies What you can do naturally is to start by cleaning up your diet, making sure you are free of tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea and diet products. Homeopathy and cell salts are often indicated because of hypersensitivity as they do not interact with other medications and are nontoxic.

Natural Remedies for Anxiety

See also: Stress & Exhaustion Natural Remedies. Anxiety and nervousness are symptoms of your body responding to stress. The medical community has put the name of General Anxiety Disorder or GAD to this. Millions of Americans experience anxiety each day. It helps them deal with a tense situation in the office, or keep focused on an important speech. In general, it helps one cope. But whenanxiety and its symptoms are in the forefront of your day, and all of life is affected, it is time to seek help. Symptoms include the mind racing, worry, uneasiness, irritability, headaches, sweating, difficulty concentrating, heart palpitations, tightness of chest,

P a g e | 37

shaking or internal trembling, need for frequent visits to the bathroom, insomnia or trouble getting to or staying asleep, nausea, exhaustion, or being on edge. Causes come from a myriad of reasons: heredity, brain chemistry, or it could be a learned behavior due to some of lifes experiences. Some causes may come from the food we eat, the friends we hang out with, or the places we work. Using drugs or alcohol to calm or medicate are certain reasons for anxiety. Modern medicine generally uses anti-depressants or Valium-like products to depress the nervous system. These drugs treat symptoms, not allowing the person to get to the cause of what is making them anxious, and have the ability to change. Side effects are numerous and include dependence, becoming hard for a person to stop. Also, many people feel emotionally and mentally numb when taking these medications which, again, doesnt allow for working through the problem that is causing the anxiety. From the natural perspective, anxiety is a combination of apprehension, nervousness, and restlessness which may be due to the causes above, or not being able to work through problems, or express individuality. Symptoms can be expressed psychologically or physically. Natural healing begins by finding and treating the stresses in your life. While examining what is stressing you, nourishing your nervous system with natural supplements can go a long way to helping you calm down, have a clearer mind, and relieve the symptoms of anxiety. Next, look to your diet, first eliminating fast foods, alcohol, tobacco, coffee, and black tea. Adding a liquid calcium-magnesium twice a day may be helpful to calm down nerves and relax muscles. Then, exercise. Exercise is perhaps the safest and most effective method of managing stress. According to studies, exercise thwarts depression and anxiety by enhancing the body's ability to respond to stress. It seems to give the body the opportunity to practice dealing with stress, and forces the body's physiological systems to communicate much more closely than usual: The cardiovascular system communicates with the renal system, which communicates with the muscular system. All of these are controlled by the nervous system. This workout of the body's communication system may be the true value of exercise; the more sedentary we get, the less efficient our bodies in responding to stress.

Natural Remedies for Stress & Exhaustion

Tired of feeling stressed and exhausted? You can have more energy, think clearly, and feel overall motivated by becoming aware of the cycle you are in, and following 3 simple ideas. See also Dave's Anxiety Natural Remedies.

The Cycle
The cycle begins when we take on too many projects, or do more thanour bodies and minds are capable. So, we rely on stimulants to help us meet our extra obligations. This stresses the adrenals whichcauses exhaustion, so we take more stimulants to feel energetic and get caught up in the cycle of increasing our intake of stimulants, taking on more projects, getting less sleep, getting more stressed, etc, etc, until we are completely exhausted.

The real problem is, then it starts working on other weak points in our body (organs or tissues), producing the possibility of conditions or diseases as a result of too much stress. Then our immune reserves start tapping not only our adrenals, but from other organs, depending upon personal weaknesses. Adrenal Fatigue is seen as exhaustion, and increasing amounts of caffeine only leaves you more exhausted as the drug (caffeine) wears off. Other symptoms include dark circles under the eyes. If it progresses much further we see the person feel faint when standing up quickly. Another symptom is the inability to fall asleep. It actually takes energy to sleep. (Many sleep medications force you to sleep while creating dependence.)

Breaking the Cycle of Exhaustion

First, consider your work and life situations. Are you taking breaks at work and actually eating lunch? Are you avoiding fast foods that rob you of nutrition and further exhaust your energy? This is a good start. What do you do for fun? Are you having enough fun in life or are you at the daily grind? Sometimes it takes an attitude to have fun and see the humorous side of life. Also, learn when to say no, to keep your full plate from overflowing.

Second, make sure you are getting the nutrition you need by going to your local health food store where you can find whole-food vitamins. New Chapter Whole-food vitamins are different; they are made from whole foods that your body recognizes the nutrients and knows what to do with them. Available in one-a-day, men's and women's formulas. Third, certain herbs are tonics and can restore the adrenal functioning and help you have the energy you need. As your mineral reserve is probably low, use cell salts to fill the void. Use other homeopathics for emotional and physical support.

Cushing's Disease Natural Remedies

An overproduction of cortisol brings on Cushings disease. Symptoms include muscle wasting, fatigue, moon face, buffalo hump on upper back, fat on abdomen, thin bones, diabetes, fatigue, sleep, depression, and emotional problems. Other symptoms of Cushings are swollen eyelids, skin thinning, loss of menstrual periods, and increased thirst and urine. Causes may include pituitary or adrenal tumors, or cortisone therapy for arthritis or asthma. Use natural therapies only with doctors medications. Modern medicine uses pituitary surgery or medications (side effects), but may be life-saving. Naturally, help the body to reduce tumors and help normalize body chemistry. Always remove tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea and sodas to let the body have the best chance to heal itself. Use Stress Multi-Vitamins from New chapter for optimal nutrition.

Age Spots Natural Remedies

These unappealing brown spots are found on the hands, face or other parts of the body. Melanin is increased from sun exposure, age and hormones. Age Spots are usually treated with bleaching agents that have to be repeated because the spots always come back. From the natural perspective, age spots generally come from hormone therapy, i.e. estrogen birth control methods or a pregnancy related event. Age spots or skin discoloration also comes from liver and colon disorders. It is easily treated, but takes 6 12 months. Eliminate chemical birth control and other medications which tax or damage the liver. (Evaluate your medications, especially statin drugs.) Brown or red spots are often signs of liver imbalance. Signs of liver symptoms include irritability and anger. To support the bodys healthy functions include exercise in your routine, eliminate tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea, soda---These are liver robbing foods.

Sunburns, Relief of Sunburn Pain with Natural Remedies

see also more on Heat Exhaustion, Age Spot remedies When the skin is over exposed to the sun or UV radiation, the resulting tissue damage is known as sunburn. Sunburns are categorized in three ways, depending on the severity of tissue damage:

First-degree burns affect the outer layer of the skin, causing redness, heat and burning sensation and eventually dryness and peeling of the skin. Second-degree burns damage tissues below the top layer of skin causing burning sensation, redness, discomfort and blisters that may ooze. (DO NOT pop blisters.) Third-degree burns damage all layers of the skin and may also damage underlying ones, muscles, and tendons. There is generally a lack of pain in the area because the nerve endings are destroyed. These burns need immediate medical attention in a medical facility.

In all cases, you can use homeopathic remedies to help sunburn pain. Increase fluids to prevent dehydration while recovering from sunburn.

P a g e | 43

Measures to Help Prevent Sunburn

1. Limit skin exposure to sun, especially intense midday sun. Risk of sunburn is highest from 11 am to 3 pm but it is better to stay out of the sun until after 5 pm. 2. Use PABA-free sunscreens that protect against UV radiation and have a SPF or sun protection factor of 30 - 50. 3. Cover up with light clothing (a long-sleeved shirt, long pants, and a wide-brimmed hat).

Relief of sunburn pain can be very fast when using homeopathics and cell salts. Natural remedies for sunburn excel in their ability to relieve burning pain and help speed the healing. Although there are various over-the-counter pain relievers (NSAIDS), these only relieve symptoms and also slow the healing process. Using Alive Vitamin C will help as an anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant.

Heat Exhaustion, Rehydrating Natural Remedies

See more about Sunburn remedies, Age Spots Heat exhaustion occurs when the body over heats. Normally, the body cools itself by sweating. But if you are exposed to high temperatures for a long time and don't replace the fluids you lose, the body systems that regulate temperature become overwhelmed. As a result, the body produces

P a g e | 45

more heat than it can dissipate. Heat exhaustion requires immediate attention, because it can progress to heat stroke, a serious (even fatal) illness. The person is mentally alert but weak and exhausted. They are still sweating; but they MUST be re-hydrated and cooled. Heat Stroke or Sunstroke is the stage past heat exhaustion. It is very dangerous even fatal. The person is no longer sweating. They are confused, tired, dizzy, fainting, and the face can be flushed. There may also be nausea, a rapid pulse and severe headache, or a fever. They need immediate re-hydration and cooling. VERY DANGEROUS seek medical attention then cool and re-hydrate the person quickly. Exposure to the sun or heat without adequate water and cooling may create serious conditions. Re-hydration and cooling is essential. Modern medicine will use intravenous rehydration solutions. There can be chronic, long-term effects from heat or sunstroke. The following natural solutions may help you if you have experienced heat exhaustion or heat stroke and are experiencing continuing symptoms. Rehydrate by eating or juicing carrots, celery or lettuce. Cool teas of demulcent herbs are often helpful to restore body fluids.

Anemia is a lack of iron (hemoglobin) from low red blood cell count. Sometimes a person is without symptoms, however, iron deficiency anemia usually brings with it thin breaking fingernails and persistent fatigue, frequent yawning, light-headedness, shortness of breath or dizziness, sores on corners of mouth, pale face, and lower lip paleness. Most common causes of anemia are lack of iron absorption from poor digestion or heavy menstrual bleeding in women. Other causes include poor bone marrow red blood cell production. The spleen can destroy red blood cells prematurely. Medical treatments can include iron supplementation. They also look for stomach bleeding or tumors. They also look at medicines and radiation treatment that can destroy the red blood cells. Anemia is often discovered through blood tests.

Ankle Problems Natural Remedies

Loss of strength in one or both of the ankles can cause one to limp or have pain. Here we are talking about non-surgical ankle weakness. Pain or weakness may be in the tendons, ligaments, or joints of the ankle. Common causes include general overall weakness, obesity, over use, injury or repeated injuries. If severe enough surgery may be required for ankle weakness. X-rays or MRIs may verify the problem. Pain relievers and anti-inflammatory medications may slow or stop the healing process and may have side effects and toxicity. Naturally, what you can do is improve circulation in the ankles, reducing inflammation and pain, and maybe lose some weight so the body can heal itself. Diet is always important as poor foods will not help the body to heal. Reduce alcohol, tobacco, coffee, black tea, and processed foods in general. Natural supplements to help ankle weakness include using anti-oxidants such as Grape seed extract at 300 mg a day for connective tissue integrity. Fish oil at 6000 mg a day acts as a circulation aid and is anti-inflammatory also.

Initial help for anorexia may need to correct constipation, menstrual or digestive disorders. Diet must be addressed. As for lifestyle, get counseling to help you to recover a healthy diet and a reason to enjoy life. Diet is extremely important as many anorexics consume less than 500 calories a day. Someone who is active needs around 100 grams of protein per day. Even if the calories are low the protein needs to stay high to avoid muscle loss. The rule is to have protein at each meal. Do the obvious of avoiding alcohol, tobacco, coffee, sodas, black tea and refined sugar. Natural supplements for anorexia include using a good liquid multi-vitamin every day. Use digestive enzymes at meals as well as a good probiotic. Take 50 mg of Zinc as a most important supplement. You can have protein shakes at various times of the day.

Natural Remedies for Osteoarthritis

See also Rheumatoid Arthritis Natural Remedies > Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease and the most common form of arthritis affecting most people over the age of 50! It is the wearing away of cartilage with inflammation. Symptoms of osteo arthrits include joint inflammation which develops pain, stiffness associated with inflammation; injuries or over-use causing inflammation; stiffening with swelling; joints may deform, or bony growths may appear in or around the joints. Several of these symptoms may happen together, or individually. The causes are often a diet rich in animal fats, sugars, salts, etc. Other causes may include the use of tobacco, alcohol, coffee, injuries, and stress. Modern medicine treats arthritic conditions by attempting to contain the symptoms using toxic drugs that bring about side effects. The drug companies have designed medications to be used for a lifetime. Western medicine considers all chronic conditions to be irreversible. This view is so prevalent that most people believe the fallacy. Dont be fooled into thinking there is only one way. Prescription medications may interfere with the action of homeopathic treatment. They hamper or stop the action of the homeopathic remedy in the body. Steroids such as prednisone are the most addicting and the hardest to remove. Medications can only be removed or altered with a physicians advice. As your body is regulated under the influence of drugs, slowly wean off medications, allowing for an easier transition. Why homeopathy does so well for Arthritis Homeopathic treatment of Arthritis has been proven successful for over 200 years. Homeopathic remedies are safe for anyone and can be used along with any other treatments or medications. They may be used during pregnancy, and while nursing. Treating arthritic symptoms with homeopathics is best used in conjunction with a clean and nutritious diet. The Mucusless Diet is a good guide to follow. Always remember to eliminate tobacco, alcohol, coffee, soda pop, and dairy products. Pain is an indication of an energy blockage (the energy doesnt move through and organ or system in the way nature intended it. Remove the blockage, and the pain will go away permanently. On the other hand, if joint damage is too far gone the body cannot repair itself. Through the natural remedies pain can be eliminated either through continued treatment, or may

go away permanently even though the joint is damaged. With severe damage, pain may not be the only factor, but joint mobility will. More stubborn cases can only be positively affected by finding a persons homeopathic constitutional remedy, often determined by an experienced Homeopath. Homeopathic remedies are very specific in their action and can be used for acute and chronic conditions.

Lupus (SLE) Natural Remedies

Lupus (Systemic Lupus Erythematosis) is a serious autoimmune disease that affects the bodys connective tissues. It occurs when the body produces abnormal antibodies that attack normal body tissue as if it were a foreign invader; a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disorder that may affect many organ systems. The disease affects 9 times as many women as men. It may occur at any age, but appears in most people between 10 and 50 years old. (Approximately 1 in 700 women are affected.) Symptoms of lupus vary widely with the individual and are characterized by remissions and exacerbations. At the onset of lupus only one organ system may be involved; additional organs may become involved later. The course of the lupus may vary from mild episodic to fatal illnesses. The following organ system manifestations may be seen, but other manifestations are possible: Musculoskeletal. Almost all people with SLE have joint pain and most develop arthritis. Frequently affected joints are the fingers, hands, wrists, and knees. Death of bone tissue can occur in hips and shoulders and is frequently a cause of pain in those areas. Skin. A malar butterfly rash over the cheeks and bridge of the nose affects about half of those with SLE. The rash is usually worsened by sunlight. A more diffuse rash may appear on other body parts exposed to the sun. Other skin lesions or nodules can occur.

P a g e | 74

Other symptoms include: fever, general discomfort, uneasiness or ill feeling (malaise), skin rash, malar butterfly rash, sunlight aggravates skin rash, joint pain and swelling, sensitivity to sunlight, pleuritic chest pain, seizures, psychosis, fatigue. Causes of lupus: elevated estrogen levels may increase the risk of SLE; excessive stomach acid; aspartame is suspected; leaky gut syndrome may be a cause due to over-the-counter pain medications (chronic use). Lupus may cause these ailments: chilblains (rarely) as a side effect; hypertension (via the impaired kidney function caused by nephritis; Pericarditis; Raynauds disease; edema (due to nephritis); nephritis; fever; joint inflammation; muscle weakness; numbness. Types of Lupus Erythematosus Discoid Lupus (DLE) is a skin ailment characterized by red lesions that form on the face and scalp; Systemic Lupus (SLE) damages the kidneys, heart, liver, lungs, nervous system, joints and skin; Drug-Induced Lupus is characterized by lupus-like symptoms triggered by various pharmaceutical drugsHydralazine (high blood pressure meds), some heart medications, epileptic, tuberculosis, rheumatoid arthritis medications. Medical perspective will diagnose the problem by looking or the facial rash, take a blood test and may recommend over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDS) that can cause their own damage without resolving the lupus. They may also recommend prednisone or other immunosuppressive drugs that may also carry dangerous toxicity or side effects. Natural perspective includes diet, stress relief and other following natural treatments. The lupus sufferer may need to use natural therapies for flare-ups, specific organ or joint weaknesses, and homeopathic constitutional treatment. For diet, remove toxic substances such as tobacco, alcohol, black tea, coffee, sodas and reduce processed foods. Prognosis for Lupus The outcome has improved over previous years for people with SLE. Many affected have mild illness. Women with SLE who become pregnant are often able to complete pregnancy safely and deliver normal infants if severe renal or heart disease is not present, and the SLE is under treatment. The 10-year survival rate exceeds 85%. People with severe involvement of the brain, lungs, heart, and kidney have the worst prognosis in terms of overall survival and disability. The following natural supplements may alleviate Lupus symptoms: Magnesium levels are often abnormally low in lupus patients. Use as much magnesium as possible until you get diarrhea and then back off the dosage. Pycnogenol may be a useful adjunctive treatment as an antioxidant MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) at 5000mg a day may help to prevent and treat SLE.

MS Multiple Sclerosis Natural Remedies

Multiple Sclerosis is a chronic neuromuscular ailment in which the myelin sheaths surrounding the nerves in the brain and spinal cord (i.e. in the central nervous system) are damaged. There are various theories as to the cause (and none are agreed upon unanimously by medical experts). MS occurs mainly in the Caucasian populations of westernized nations and incidence is 50-100 cases per 100,000 of the population. It is more prevalent in women than in men, and generally commences at an early age most often during early adult years. It is generally accepted that Multiple Sclerosis is neither preventable nor curable, although many patients have gone into remission form many years and various therapies have been demonstrated to alleviate the symptoms of Multiple Sclerosis. Symptoms include many of the following: Hands-dropping things, weakness in the legs with staggering, gait, numbness, eyes blurred or double vision tingling sclerosis includes calcium plaque of the nervous system where they cant transmit messages electromagnetic cut-off, atrophy, degeneration of spinal cord spreads throughout the body chronic virus? slurred speech, tremors, mood swings, loss of bowel functions, paralysis, wheelchairs, to bed-redden hippocratic face unemotional or flat without expression, photophobic independent or rigid, emotionally closed, sensitive. Diagnosis isnt always clear or accurate; when it is, medications can be helpful, but most of the time are ineffective or toxic, or have side effects. In my experience, Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a response to chronic stress of toxicity of physical or emotional causes. Look at your lifestyle and diet. Natural treatments can stop or slow the progression of MS. I would use a combination of diet, cell salts, homeopathic remedies, and herbs for best results. The Swank diet and a gluten-free diet can maintain ones health almost indefinitely. The following natural supplements may alleviate or prevent symptoms of Multiple Sclerosis: Glucosamine may be useful for treatment. Magnesium may benefit muscular health. Curcumin (turmeric) may inhibit further progression because it is anti-inflammatory. Mangosteen may be useful. Evening Primrose Oil may alleviate some of the symptoms as it may aid the myelin sheath. Phosphatidyl Serine (PS), at 100 mg twice a day, may help rebuild the myelin sheath. The following substances may cause or exacerbate symptoms of MS: Aspartame may cause symptoms that closely resemble Multiple Sclerosis. Excessive estrogen levels or a high estrogen: progesterone ratio (estrogen dominance). Mineral toxicity: excessive accumulation of aluminum within the body may cause MS. Excessive exposure to lead may be a trigger.

P a g e | 77

Mercury may cause MS (It has also been speculated that root canal fillings may be implicated in the development of MS.). Hepatitis B vaccine is suspected of causing some cases of MS. For your diet, eliminate toxins that may affect the myelin sheath and general immune health. Eliminate tobacco, caffeine, coffee, black tea, soda, and processed foods.

The medical field has few answers to this as most medications sedate the children, along with other side effects. Natural solutions help these children or people to relax and not be so shy. Nutritional factors may include a magnesium deficiency. Use a liquid or powder magnesium. Increase dosage until the person has too loose a stool, and then back off.

Baby Colic Natural Remedies

Colic for young babies includes painful indigestion. Symptoms of colic include gas, bloating and pain during and after feeding; spitting up may also be a sign of colic. Causes come from feeding baby the wrong type of formula or reaction to something in the formula; also reaction to mothers milk when the mother is eating the wrong foods or is stressed. Colic also may happen when the child is stressed or is eating solid foods too early. Modern medicine uses acid-reducing medicines for colic which may make the body feel better but may be toxic or disrupt the digestion further.
Naturally, the best thing to do is find the cause-usually dietary for mom or child. There are several great colic solutions that help the babys digestive system to work normally. Ideally the child should be breast fed until the childs eye teeth come in, signifying the digestive enzymes are starting to flow and the baby can be put slowly on solids.

Baby Congestion Natural Remedies

Nasal congestion in babies interferes with sleeping and feeding, when nasal pathways are blocked. Congestion comes when a nursing mother may have a diet too rich in dairy products or there is too much stress from lack of sleep which affects the quality of mothers milk. The baby may have allergies to the formula. For baby congestion, most healthcare professionals recommend sucking out the mucus from the nose or using a decongestant if the child is old enough. From the natural perspective, we should look first at the mothers diet, and help the mother and child to normalize mucus secretions to reduce congestion. Clearing the nose is helpful. A humidifier with a few drops eucalyptus oil in the water may be helpful at night. It is good symptomatic relief. Nursing mothers need to pay attention to their diet; also avoid tobacco, alcohol, caffeine, coffee, and soda. If baby is on formula, you may need to change it.

Sciatic Pain Natural Remedies

Sciatica comes from nerve pains radiating from an irritated or damaged sciatic nerve; this nerve feeds the legs. Sciatic pain can be throbbing, aching, or shooting. Sciatic pain can last for a few days typically. Many people have chronic sciatic problems. The cause of sciatic pain is generally injury to the lumbar spine, however there may be a bulging disc aggravated by constipation, varicose veins, or exposure to cold wet conditions. The medical perspective on sciatic pain tells patients to rest for 48 hours, avoiding physical exertion. Pain relievers and muscle relaxers for sciatic pain are often prescribed but bring many side effects. Surgery or steroids may be a last resort for sciatic pain. Natural perspective on sciatic pain is, first, to prevent injuries such as bulging discs, with other contributing causes such as constipation.

Natural Bad Breath Remedies

Bad breath is an offensive odor coming from the mouth. The most common cause is poor digestion. Some say constipation may also cause bad breath. Medications which block or reduce stomach acid may cause bad breath. Sinus problems may also be a cause. Very rarely, bad breath may be a sign of tuberculosis, syphilis, cancer, or even AIDS. Other causes include smelly foods (sardines, garlic, onions, salami, or other strong smelling foods), hunger, or dental problems. Remember to have regular dental checkups. Modern medicine doesnt usually treat bad breath unless a severe medical problem is seen. Bad breath is not treated by doctors with the exception of examining teeth for infection or to give antibiotics for recurring sinus infections. The natural way to get rid of bad breath is to find the cause. Remember, the cause could be as simple constipation or stress. First, eliminate tobacco, alcohol, coffee, soda pop, and fast foods. These things disturb the digestion and contribute to bad breath. Chewing gum may stimulate saliva and better digestion. Further, eating parsley or chewing anise or fennel seeds are natural ways to refresh bad breath. Next, use supplements to help better digestion; using HCL (to break down proteins in food) with meals or even Papaya to increase digestion and reduce constipation. Also, remember to drink plenty of water; stay hydrated.

Bags Under Eyes Natural Remedies

Unsightly swelling of the area under the eyes; the appearance can come quickly with kidney problems or long-term with kidney, liver, and colon problems. Causes are kidney or liver weakness. Medicine sees the bags as a weakness in the connective tissue around the eyes. They use surgery to remove eye bags, but bags may return as the cause has not been addressed. From the natural perspective we see eye bags as kidney or bladder weakness. The eye most affected represents the kidney most affected. There can also be liver or colon involvement when the eye bags are lower under the eyes. This may be a sign of poor nutritional health. Stay away from alcohol, tobacco, coffee, black tea, soda, and fast food. Chronic therapy can take 6 12 months to reduce.

Men's Hair Loss Natural Remedies

Hair loss, also called male pattern baldness, comes from aging in men. Men can start losing hair as soon as they reach puberty but typically it happens from the age of seventeen and older. Men can have hair loss from the front of the head, where the hair recedes (receding hairline) or in the pattern of a circle atop the head. It is caused by hormones turning from testosterone to dihydrotestosterone which destroys the hair permanently. It is basically a hormone issue influenced by the foods we eat. How modern medicine treats male pattern baldness: They often use topical chemicals that produce marginal hair and must be used indefinitely or the hair falls out. (What a great marketing tool.) It also has side effects such as testicular pain. (Sex appeal has its price!) Other strategies include hair implants which may have various results. Michio Kushi, in his book of Oriental Diagnosis claims that hair loss in men is a result of an improper diet. This is not surprising since the typical American diet is either too much animal protein rich or there is too much sugar or even both. This is very evident to typical teenagers or young adults. This is very evident in typical teenagers or young adults. Thus, it is important to have a balanced diet. He further asserts that frontal hair los is from an overconsumption of sugar and is usually related to intellectual individuals.
The monks-cap look comes from excessive salt and a meat and potatoes diet, including those who are blue collar workers (those who work with their hands).

If you have chronic urinary tract infections, see a urologist to be sure there is not a serious problems or even a deformity. From the natural perspective, UTI, urinary tract infections may be a result of lack of antioxidants, poor diet, and sanitation issues. Chronic urinary tract infections may be a sign of childhood abuse, especially if antibiotics dont work, or there are no laboratory signs of infection in the urinary tract. What you can do naturally: Treatment of symptoms of UTI, Urinary Tract Infections can include taking D-Mannose which may help avoid bacteria sticking to the walls of the mucus membranes. Cranberry extracts can also be effective. Remember to avoid tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea, and soda pop. If you are having constant problems, see also Interstitial Cystitis

Incontinence Natural Remedies

Urinary leakage from the bladder includes frequent urging with little flow. Causes in women are generally menopausal problems from lack of estrogen, chronic constipation, weakness from childbirth, or a weak pelvic floor (from sitting too much). There are more women than men suffering from this. Men suffering from this can have an enlarged prostate. Men, see Prostate Problems, BPH Natural Remedies. Other causes of incontinence include prescription drug side effects. Medical treatment for incontinence can include drugs which dry up body fluids (may cause a myriad of side effects) or act to calm bladder spasms. All drugs treat the symptoms of urinary leakage, not the cause. Naturally, we want to get to the cause of the urinary incontinence. Also, getting rid of urinary stressors such as tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea, and soda pop will go a long way to eliminating urinary problems.
Stress and nervousness is often a cause of urinary incontinence, and herbs and other natural treatments can help. Other treatments can include strengthening the prostate, for men, and addressing hormonal issues during menopause for women. Doing Kegel exercises for at least 3 months can help with pelvic floor weakness.

Hemochromatosis Natural Remedies

The traditional form of hemochromatosis is an iron overload disease; the body absorbs too much iron, stores it in the pancreas, liver and heart. It can cause these organs to fail if it is not discovered early enough. If left unchecked hemochromatosis can damage the heart muscle. Too much iron can be too much of a good thing. Those afflicted with hemochromatosis can absorb iron up to 20 times the normal rate. In menstruating women hemochromatosis can remain undiagnosed (as menstruating is one of the only ways to get rid of excess iron); symptoms dont usually come on until menopause. The symptoms are persistent fatigue, abdominal discomfort, swollen liver, raised liver enzymes, joint pains, loss of sex drive and even bronzed skin (too much melanin). A fairly sure sign of hemochromatosis is bronzed skin along with an enlarged liver, diabetes or fatty liver. It is found more in males, more in Scandinavians, dietary iron, or toxic liver (usually from alcoholism). Causes of hemochromatosis are usually from an inherited defective gene sequence or a weak or toxic liver that cannot release excess iron. Other problems that may be a consequence of excess iron may be adrenal damage or heart disease. The medical viewpoint is that hemochromatosis is incurable and should be easily managed through blood donation on a regular basis, a diet low in iron, and a diagnosis of liver, pancreas and heart health. Blood tests are done on those affected and family members who may be undiagnosed because there may be a hereditary link. Vitamin C as not recommended for

P a g e | 99

hemochromatosis patients as it helps a person absorb iron. Research has shown that excessive iron damages cells and organs. The natural viewpoint is that while the hemochromatosis may be genetic, it is a liver weakness as well as adrenal related. Many people use natural therapies along with blood donation and low iron foods. It is always important to avoid tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea and foods rich in iron (mostly meat). A vegetarian diet may be helpful as well as healthful.

See also High Cholesterol Remedies > Having high blood pressure increases your chance for heart disease, heart attacks, strokes, or kidney disease. Normal blood pressure is around 120/80 mmHg. Blood pressure of 140/90 mmHg or higher is considered high blood pressure or hypertension. The kidneys are the first cause of high blood pressure, but are also the easiest to treat. Excess fluids can cause high blood press (kidney weakness). Metaphorically, kidney weakness equals fear. Other

P a g e | 100

causes may come from stress, a diet rich in animal fats, and toxicity related to use of tobacco, alcohol, coffee and tea. Modern medicine treats high blood pressure using diuretics that stress the kidneys and may damage them. Beta blockers lower the heart rate. ACE inhibitors are blood vessel constrictors. Calcium-channel blockers relax the blood vessels. All these treatments supply only symptomatic relief and include a life-time dependence on medications. From a natural perspective, using the word pressure brings up a whole new category of feeling pressured to perform at work, pressured in relationships, or your own high expectations of yourself or others. For men, in general, high blood pressure is related to anger; for women, it is more about stress. For men and women, it could be either or both. Most people dont know how to manage stress nor are they interested how to. And as a result, the drug companies have provided a quick fix which, truly, any of us can become dependent upon for a lifetime. I believe most high blood pressure issues are from financial stress. The way we value ourselves and others has to do with heart health. In most cases of high blood pressure, the cause is a great mystery according to the modern health perspective. Of course, a healthy diet and exercise is the natural way to start helping lower high blood pressure. Take time to address your stresses in life and find ways to minimize them.

High Cholesterol Natural Remedies

See also High Blood Pressure Remedies > Cholesterol is an important component derived from the liver to feed the cells of the body proper fats. When ratios are wrong, excesses build up on the arterial walls. Poor concentration, dizziness, and breathless in normal exertion are some of the symptoms.The common cause of high cholesterol is a diet high in animal fats, and little or no exercise. High stress levels also play a part. Modern medicine uses drugs to combat the problem. In the book Natural Alternatives to Lipitor, Zocor, and other Statin Drugs by Jay S. Cohen, the author describes the drugs as statins which can damage the liver, create flu-like symptoms and dissolve muscle tissue. Many people have contacted their doctors and have quit their statin drugs and have significantly improved their state of well being and are no longer sore and achy, and have more energy. One client was told by her doctor that she should feel poorly as a result of using statin drugs, and she should get used to feeling bad. Dr. Cohen recommends with diet and exercise, nutrition and a variety of herbal supplements. Natural solution in helping high cholesterol is to realize cholesterol is controlled by the liver and is a part of liver health. The cells of our body need proper fats for connective tissue health also. Dr. Dean Ornich says you can reverse high cholesterol with one half hour of therapeutic breathing and another of yoga! Exercising reduces cholesterol 40 to 50 points in as little as 3 to 4 weeks. He also says Americans with a normal diet have an average 220 cholesterol. Vegans average 150 and Chinese that eat a quarter pound of meat (average) a week are at 127. Also, six cloves of garlic or the capsule equivalent per day normalizes cholesterol levels. Check with your doctor when using natural supplements. Most people get their cholesterol checked every 3 to 6 months to make sure natural treatments remain effective.

Low Blood Pressure Natural Remedies

Low blood pressure causes a complex set of symptoms when pressure stays below 100/65. It is more common in young women and tall thin people, accounting for 5% of the population; y in people with varicose veins are more likely to have low blood pressure. Symptoms include:

Waking up feeling tired Depression Nervousness, irritability Concentration weak Sensitivity to weather change Headache or pressure Vertigo Black floaters in the eyes Pale face Cold hands and feet Heart pains, palpitations Tinnitus ringing in ears Deafness Faintness upon standing (adrenal involvement)

Causes of low blood pressure for our sake of discussion are circulatory weakness, diet and lifestyle, or nervous system problems. These are the major causes. If not, less common causes of low blood pressure may be insomnia, diabetes, digestive, hormonal disturbances, thyroid, and adrenal problems, blood poisoning or allergic reactions. The medical community is not certain that this is a condition or disease. Drugs such as high blood pressure meds, circulation meds (including blood thinners), and anti-depressants may contribute to low blood pressure. They may utilize stimulating drugs to raise blood pressure (always with side effects and are short-term fixes). Make sure you are tested for more serious problems. The natural perspective here will discuss the 3 common causes: First is poor diet and fast foods, tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea, caffeine can contribute in a susceptible person. Why not change your lifestyle now? Second, nervous conditions often are the cause of low blood pressure. This is due to long-term stress or extreme stress condition, and not enough B Vitamins (B-Complex). Third, a more serious condition may be heart and circulatory weakness, usually caused from an illness or chronic weakness. Be sure of your cause and the following natural solutions may be helpful. Also, moderate physical exercise is helpful as well as alternating hot and cold showers. Be patient as it may take a couple of weeks to notice change and several months or longer to turn around a chronic low blood pressure condition.

Adult-Onset Diabetes (Type II) Natural Remedies

See also my articles on Diabetes and Insulin Resistance Adult-onset diabetes is a dysfunction of sugar metabolism, contributing to weight gain, high blood pressure, and cholesterol and triglyceride deregulation. The body can no longer utilize sugar (glucose) to feed the cells and the pancreas cannot secrete enough insulin. From the natural perspective, excessive refined carbohydrates in the diet contribute to insulin resistance, ultimately resulting in endocrine problems affecting the whole body. As a diabetic, in addition to your medical care, there are natural steps you can take to support your body. First, consider your overall health. Maintaining a healthy weight and diet are very important. Choose a low-carbohydrate diet to reduce the need for insulin, giving the body a chance to regenerate with the help of natural supplements. Cleanse with a gentle herbal cleanse for a week or two. No need for diarrhea or radical flushing. This type of cleansing rids your system of mucus and other toxins that burden the body so your organs function better. I recommend Natures Way Mineral Sweep Exercise. Keeping your body in shape and maintaining it takes time and effort. Work with your health provider to set up a schedule of regular exercise. Start slowly and work up to a moderate level of exercise 5 days a week. If overweight, you need to develop a plan to lose those extra pounds. Remember, this is a lifestyle change. Losing weight takes the burden off the bodys organs. Eat fiber-rich foods such as apples and vegetables, especially raw vegetables. These carbohydrates are absorbed slower into the blood stream than processed foods, like white flours, white sugars, sweeteners, and fruit juices. Fiber-rich foods relieve pressure on the pancreas and rest overworked organs. Eat frequently. Small meals 6 times a day keep blood sugar from spiking. Large meals tend to spike blood sugar. Include brown rice in your daily diet. It is rich in fiber (slowing the absorption of sugars into the blood) and B vitamins that reduce everyday stress. Use of Artificial Sweeteners. Artificial sweeteners are chemicals that need to be detoxified by the liver. Natural sweeteners such as stevia support the pancreas health. NOW Brand Stevia has some great flavors that help to satisfy sweet cravings

Hypoglycemia Natural Remedies

Hypoglycemia includes symptoms of irritability, anger, dizziness and blurred vision, depression, weakness, and sugar cravings from excess insulin production which causes blood sugar levels to drop below normal. There are 3 types of hypoglycemia but we well talk about functional hypoglycemia because the causes are fairly simple. Rarer types of hypoglycemia can stem from liver failure or tumors of the liver or pancreas. Causes of functional hypoglycemia are often poor diet choices (high in fat and sugar low in nutrients) and stress conditions. Modern medicine rarely recognizes hypoglycemia as a condition or disease as it may mimic other diseases or conditions. As a functional hypoglycemic they usually offer orange juice or sugar for reactions, but this hurts in the long term. Naturally, we want to what is causing the symptoms of hypoglycemia. First, look at a diet. If it is rich in fast foods, sugar, coffee, caffeine, alcohol and sodas, these are the main culprit. Change to a protein-rich diet and fresh whole fruits and vegetables this is to stop an overproduction of insulin. Also see insulin resistance. If the symptoms are still there after a diet correction we think of stress and fatigue from adrenal exhaustion as a common cause. A weak thyroid can also be a cause to a hypothyroid condition.

Insulin Resistance and Adult-Onset Diabetes by David R. Card

See Natural Remedies for Type II Diabetes Download Dave's Low-carb diet in .pdf Adult-onset Diabetes is the disease that most adults can heal without using medications. This is a stunning statement considering billions of dollars that are spent by Americans every year on diabetic medications. Drug companies assume that Americans are unwilling to change their diets and therefore have developed drugs to relieve symptoms; but they never cure the problem. I believe that Americans can turn this epidemic around and find tremendous health. It is a dysfunction of sugar metabolism, contributing to weight gain, high blood pressure, and cholesterol and triglyceride deregulation. Most commonly we see the accumulation of fat on the belly. This big belly or fat on the abdomen is a very good sign of insulin resistance and prediabetes, but it can be taken care of rather quickly, and naturally, without the use of medication. While insulin resistance is a recognized condition in the medical field, medication is generally all thats prescribed. Most of these medications serve to cause problems with the liver and may even burn out the pancreas insulin-producing function. Remember, these drugs were brought about to satisfy Americans needs for relief of symptoms without actually changing their lifestyle. My Experience A new revelation started for me early this summer as I attended an herbal symposium in Ashville, North Carolina. Paul Bergner was teaching a class on insulin resistance. As an herbalist and a nutritionist, he presented countless articles and research studies showing how this problem is killing Americans.

P a g e | 109

After taking the class on insulin resistance, I then decided to take the entire course, and with it came almost 300 pages of notes and scientific articles showing how to reverse this condition in 3 to 6 months, naturally. If you havent figured it out already, Im a skeptic. Before I would share this information, I decided to go on the program he recommended, and see for myself how it would work. Much to my surprise, he advocated a low-carb diet similar to Atkins and South Beach, with a few simple changes. The benefits, all based on scientific researched, show that a low carb diet will increase cardiovascular health, normalize cholesterol and triglyceride levels, blood pressure, uterine fibroids, cancer prevention, and mental well-being, just to name a few. As I am in good health, I started on the program wanting to gain more mental clarity. Within a few days I was thinking clearer and feeling better. To everyones surprise, I have now lost 25 pounds, not restricting my calorie intake, but carbohydrate intake. Basically, I just eliminated any kind of grain, and fruit out of my diet. The amazing part was how easy it was to do. While over the last fifty years Ive had hypoglycemic tendencies, I no longer have that as a result of this. I was very pleased to lose belly fat accumulated over the past few years. Some men consider it a badge of honor, not me. Since then, I have introduced this low-carb diet to many of my clients, and about 50% of them reported much success. I mention all these things because one of the biggest barriers of insulin resistance and diabetes is obesity, especially belly fat. Just recently, a couple experiencing a myriad of health issues decided to go on the low-carb diet together. In 3 weeks the husband lost 10 pounds and the wife lost 7 pounds.

From the medical perspective look for the cause from prescription or over-the-counter medications you are taking. Next, blood tests may be able to tell whether the thyroid or something else is not working properly. Many times there are few answers and doctors may prescribe drugs for dementia or Alzheimers. From the natural perspective we want to find the cause and look at the diet, lifestyle, exercise, and the emotions too.

Dementia Natural Remedies

See also Alzheimer's Remedies, Mind, Memory Class Notes Dementia is a lack of mental functioning, especially with memory. It affects language and speech, memory, perception, behaviors, personality changes, thinking, and judgment. Causes of dementia are numerous including thyroid or blood sugar problems, brain tumors, drug intoxication, chronic infections, anemia, depression, Parkinsons, multiple sclerosis, AIDS, Lyme disease, B-12 deficiency, medications including some cholesterol lowering drugs, and alcoholism.

P a g e | 115

Dementia starts with forgetfulness and affects tasks, problem solving, losing familiar places or objects can get lost, and with low interest in life. When it gets worse people start forgetting events, reading writing, they have poor judgment, go into social isolation, have confused speech, and have hallucinations or delusions. At the worst, as dementia progresses further, the person cant understand language, loses family recognition, forgets to eat and bathe, has incontinence problems, and has problems swallowing. Medications like antipsychotics, mood stabilizers, serotonin, and even stimulants (amphetamines) are prescribed. Other brain drugs that have admitted little change or help but have a large array of side effects. Prognosis by modern medicine is certain furthering of dementia, loss of lifespan and quality of life. Dementia is not thought to be preventable. From the natural perspective we look for the cause whether it is physical, nutritional, and emotional or a chemical poisoning. The cause must be dealt with; this takes someone other than yourself. Find an herbalist, homeopath or natural practitioner.

Mind and Memory Herbs and Homeopathy Class Notes

"Memory is fundamental to our being; it lets us process the myriads of information every second of our lives, then we use that information to live our lives. A good memory will benefit us and help us grow. Herbs have been used for centuries in cultures all around the world to benefit learning, memory, concentration, and to benefit those with conditions such as head injuries and old age conditions of dementia and alzheimers. So the ancients discovered plants that had the ability to enlighten the mind and bring peace to the heart of those that embraced them. We are going to talk about uses of herbs for modern day conditions that can be more effective than any of the drugs on the market for memory and mind health in prevention and care for problems that go from cognitive dysfunction to dementia or even Alzheimers disease."

Stroke Natural Remedies

A stroke is a CVA or cardiovascular accident that affects millions of Americans and more around the world. Apoplexy is the old term used for strokes. The risk for stroke is greater for men, occurring more frequently than women over the age of forty; however, in this modern American age that could be changing. A stroke is a sudden decrease in blood flow in the brain and then the brain doesnt function normally. Strokes may happen due to thrombosis (blood clots). Signs of a stroke include sudden loss of consciousness, inability to speak or move certain body parts, numbness, loss of muscle control, headaches, confusion, and loss of bladder and bowel control.

P a g e | 117

Early signs of an oncoming stroke are dizziness, pressure sensation, headache, sleep disturbances, irritability, and emotional exhaustion. During a stroke you can keep your consciousness or may lose it hours to days later. There can be severe pain, vomiting, extreme snoring, and uncontrollable loss of saliva. In both cases, there is a one-sided paralysis that can affect the face. When the cause of the stroke is hemorrhage in brain tissue, the patients face is bright red. If the cause is a clot of the brain artery, then the face is pale. Main causes of stroke include high blood pressure and arteriosclerosis, anemia of the brain which causes memory loss and senility. These causes come from weak veins in the brain, venous cramping or bleeding within the brain. Other causes may include arteriosclerosis, prescription drugs, diet and lifestyle. Risks include smoking, obesity, high fat and salt in the diet, and alcohol consumption. Always call 911 if you suspect a stroke while using natural emergency measures. Medical treatment for stroke in the emergency room is essential and life saving. Then there are many natural helps for a speedy recovery. Natural perspective on stroke first get emergency help. If you have to wait or there is no help coming, then try the following treatments as they are historically uses and have been used with some success.

Fish oil at 6,000 mg a day is also essential for cardiovascular health. It also acts as an antiinflammatory. This is not a concentrated Omega 3; plain fish oil is more like real fish. Add Coenzyme Q10 to improve cardiovascular function. Natural First Aid for Stroke (Historical herbal usage for information only). Lie still in bed, remove tight clothes. Put an ice pack on the neck and head. Drink 2 teaspoons of Arnica tincture and one teaspoon of Hamamelis tincture in 8 ounces of cold water.

Mixed together it has been used for wounds and trauma, taken 1 teaspoon before a dangerous activity (battles) etc. and a teaspoon as needed afterward. Some modern herbalists have used it with success. Internally, Arnica should be used for short periods (a few days at most). This may not be much different than the toxic effects of antibiotics that are also used usually for short periods.

Fibrocystic Breasts Natural Remedies

See also PMS Remedies, Women's Libido Remedies Fibrocystic breast disease (FBD) is a benign condition of lumps in the breasts which affects over 60% of women ages 30 to 50. The breasts can be lumpy, sensitive, and painful especially during the week before and at the start of the menstrual period. Modern medicine treats fibrocystic breasts with over-the-counter pain relievers which only give symptomatic relief. Common causes are hormone birth control methods, and/or a diet rich in animal fats (which means rich in synthetic estrogens). From a natural perspective, this is a hormonal imbalance from the aforementioned causes. What you can do naturally: The first thing that you can do is find a natural way to birth control, then make sure your diet is free of animal products, especially fats.

Natural Woman's Libido Support

A womans libido is the desire for sexual intercourse. It is influenced by a womans self-worth, how she values her partner, and especially hormonal balance. All three are often needed for a woman to be interested. Sometimes, it is only a matter of one of them being out of balance.

See also: PMS (Premenstrual Syndrome) and Good News for Women's Health Frigidity is the lack of sexual desire. Common causes include exhaustion, poor self-esteem, or an unhappy relationship. A significant cause may be hormone imbalance from childbirth, chemical birth control or other hormonal changes. Hormonal imbalances can cause a wide array of symptoms such as excessive bleeding, menstrual cramping, breast tenderness, bloating and more. Emotional symptoms may include anger, irritability, anxiety, depression, memory problems, concentration problems, crying, low libido

P a g e | 125

and sleep problems. While all these symptoms are common, they are not necessary just because you are of the female gender. Modern medicine often uses testosterone to promote sexual excitement. While often successful, testosterone can promote aggression, anger, irritability, facial hair growth, and acne. As with most pharmaceutical drugs, they have side effects, and may create dependency. First, clean up your diet, eliminating tobacco, coffee, and black tea. Avoid animal fats and products as they are full of chemicals that affect your hormonal balance. Then get some help from your plant friendsherbs. Create better hormonal health naturally with herbs, cell salts, and homeopathy. Try using the herb Vitex (Agnus castus), also known as Chaste Tree Berry, with the cell salt solution.

Wet bronchitis with where there are mucus conditions. There are also acute and chronic bronchitis. Acute bronchitis comes on quickly and last for only a few days and may resolve itself. It may come from a cold or flu or from an allergic reaction. Acute bronchitis symptoms include thick mucus, difficulty breathing, runny nose, sore throat or even a slight fever. Chronic bronchitis lasts for weeks, months, or longer and symptoms may come and go. There can be severe cough with mucus that is worse during wet weather. Breathing is difficult, worse from colds and may develop other severe respiratory problems. Symptoms of chronic bronchitis are severe coughing with bad smelling discharges, bad breath, and may lead to enlarged fingertips. There may be wheezing, ankle swelling, headaches, and red cheeks. Chronic bronchitis is caused from allergic conditions such as dust, smoke or follows whooping cough, chronic heart of kidney diseases. Modern medicine uses antibiotics for acute bacterial infections or chronic flair ups. They may prescribe antihistamines for allergies. If there are severe symptoms they may prescribe inhalers. While these methods may be effective they do not treat the cause but only help bronchitis symptoms, and have toxicity and side effects. Natural perspectives on bronchitis are to remove the irritations of air pollution, stress, and to improve the diet. Also deal with emotional causes.

Buerger's Disease Natural Remedies

See also Raynaud's Natural Remedies Buergers disease is an inflammation of the arteries and veins of the hands and feet that cause pain and damage. It is seen predominantly in men in their twenties through forties, and is found in men from the Middle East. It is caused most likely from a genetic predisposition but mostly from heavy tobacco smoking. It is seen with clots and damage to the veins and arteries. Buergers is similar to Raynauds but the hands dont always change colors and it is not a circulatory problem it is a vascular inflammation problem. The medical field may use blood thinners, anti-inflammatory drugs and circulatory drugs that all have side effects and may only temporarily provide relief. The natural viewpoint is to stop the tobacco smoking that is causing most of the problems, then use natural methods to restore vascular health. Change your diet by first eliminating tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea, and processed and fast foods.

Sometimes vision problems are hereditary, but oft times they come when we dont want to see something we need to change in our lives. As this happens, the eyes weaken and we may need glasses, or some other visional aid. Modern medicine can do some amazing surgeries for a myriad of vision problems and injuries. Watching too much television and computers may weaken eyes because we dont look around and get the depth perception, so the eye muscles are not exercised like they should be. Thousands of my clients over the years can attest to the value of eating healthy. It is great prevention for many health problems. Make sure your are eating a diet of pure and natural foods while staying away from tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea, soda, and fast food. In Chinese medicine, liver health is directly connected to the health of the eyes. These dietary recommendations benefit the liver, and therefore the eyes.
Supplements for the eyes include: Vitamin A (fish-oil based) is important to eye health. 10,000 IU per day is safe to use. Amazingly, it only takes one 25,000 IU capsule per year to save the sight of a child living in a third-world country. Lutein is a supplement that is rich in antioxidants for the eyes. Use 25-50 milligrams per day.

Natural Remedies for Cavities

Dental decay creates cavities in teeth. There may be tooth pain, or no pain associated. For more on tooth pain, see Toothaches and Root Canal Remedies. Causes are poor diet or nutrient assimilation, and lack of dental hygiene. Generally dental treatment includes filling holes, etc. with plastic or metal. The natural solution starts with a good diet and using natural substances to help the body prevent or reduce cavities. Clove essential oil stops pain, strong taste - directly in a cavity works quick and lasts for a few hours.

Toothaches are tooth pain caused by tooth decay on the outside, under the gums, at the tooth roots or bones in the jaws. Dental treatment gives the option of filling cavities, pulling teeth or doing root canals. Causes are poor dental hygiene and poor diet, or lack of assimilation of nutrients, especially calcium. I have found that toothaches and teeth problems in general are a lack of calcium, or calcium absorption problems. Other causes may be facial neuralgia (trigeminal neuralgia) that radiates into the face and teeth. This neuralgia may affect healthy teeth. The natural way is to help the body to repair itself. The first thing to try is Calc phos 6X as a cell salt (10 tablets 2 times daily). Next, use liquid Calcium magnesium citrate (1 tablespoon twice daily), getting at least 1200mg of Calcium. Many customers have seen relief in a day or two.

Natural Remedies for Root Canals

See also Cavity Natural Remedies, Toothache Pain Remedies Root canals are a popular dental treatment for decaying of roots of the teeth. There may also be decay or problems with surrounding tissue and bone. The other option given is to pull the tooth. Symptoms include pain, tenderness, and even muscle or joint arthritis, heart damage, and possible stomach problems.
Naturally, the best way to avoid root canals is prevention by improving lifestyle and diet. Where the porous pulp of the tooth can harbor bacteria and infection, there is hope to help this without drugs or dental procedures.

Celiac Disease Natural Remedies

Celiac disease comes with symptoms of chronic gas, bloating, indigestion, later immune deficiency, and finally neurological issues. Celiac is seen intestinally as damaged and flattened villi. The culprit seems to be gluten. The diet for celiac is so strict that as little as ten milligrams of gluten affects most sufferers. Celiac disease can also cause migraines and emotional problems. Treatment for celiac disease comes first through a diet eliminating gluten. Steroids may also be prescribed for celiac patients temporarily (hopefully). Paul Bergner describes celiac disease best as a food allergy, not just gluten intolerance, where digestion, nerves, and connective tissues are all affected. One never outgrows a food allergy. Most people have food allergies to dairy, wheat or eggs, and other foods. You must totally stop a food for 40 days and then retest. The intestinal system can rebuild almost completely; I have seen homeopathics restore balance completely through clients reports about how they have overcome a wheat allergy by using Carcinosin homeopathic (generally it is their constitutional remedy). But, you must be careful to avoid the offending food. Celiac is also seen to contribute to leaky gut syndrome and can be treated naturally. Part of celiac problems may be Vitamin D deficiency which is important to the matrix of connective tissue health of the intestines.
Diet for Celiac Disease

In your diet for celiac, It is critical to remove NSAIDS (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) because they cause leaky gut syndrome and destroy the integrity of the mucosal wall in the intestine. Avoid your food intolerance. Improve digestion by eating a more natural diet, avoiding tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea, fast foods, processed foods. Heal the leaky gut by using Vitamin D and herbs such as plantain and calendula to heal the lining of the intestines.
Natural Remedies for Celiac Disease include:

Vitamin D--- (5000IU per day) is essential to maintain intestinal integrity.

Acidophilus (50 billion CFUs per day) will help maintain beneficial intestinal flora.

Cholera Natural Remedies

Cholera Asiatica Bacteria
Cholera is a bacterial disease of the intestinal tract. Its rare in the United States but can be difficult in third world foreign countries. It comes from poor hygiene and sanitation. Cholera is pread by eating or drinking food that has been contaminated by fecal waste of an infected person.

P a g e | 151

The symptoms are mild to severe diarrhea, vomiting, and dehydration. Usually no fever is present. The symptoms can start from a few hours to up to 5 days after exposure and last 2 to 3 days. If dehydrated, cholera can kill children and even adults. Medical perspective is antibiotics which shorten the time of diarrhea and can be life saving but is not always available in third-world countries. Natural treatments for cholera have been used successful for centuries. In many countries the important thing is sanitation and hygiene. Prevention of cholera is most important. Treatment can be effective using homeopathic remedies as well as herbs. No solid foods should be taken whenever there is diarrhea because it only makes the diarrhea worse (the cholera bacteria feeds on it). BE VERY CAREFUL WITH CHILDREN---MAKE SURE THEY DONT GET DEHYDRATED OR DEATH MAY BE EMINENT.

COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) Natural Remedies

Chronic breathing problems from bronchitis or emphysema are a very common problem. Symptoms of COPD include coughing, respiratory infections or shortness of breath with or without mucus or wheezing. Cause can be from second hand smoke, chronic smoking or weakness of the respiratory organs. Medical treatment for COPD includes inhalers, steroids, or anti-inflammatory drugs. All these can have medium to severe risks and dont get to the cause of lung weakness. From the natural perspective the first thing to do is avoid smoke or smoking as well as polluted environments. COPD can also be caused from poor diet which causes excess mucus in the body. Eating for your constitution or body type will help reduce mucus, i.e. if you are a cold person you shouldnt eat all raw food because it only makes you colder. See other remedies for lung issues

Natural Remedies for Cold Sores

Cold sores are small blisters around the mouth or nose that come on in one to four weeks and can last several days. The blisters are filled with a clear or yellow liquid. They can feel sore, or sting. Generally they are caused form contact such as kissing. The virus can lie dormant for years and will then respond to stress, or sun exposure. Modern medicine treats cold sores with anti-viral medications either over a short period or a long time for more chronic problems. They help give symptomatic relief, but may have side effects.

Ulcerative Colitis Natural Remedies

Ulcerative colitis is an inflammation and ulceration of the rectum which can ascend up through the whole large intestine. The symptoms of ulcerative colitis are mostly chronic diarrhea with blood in the stool. Frequently there is weakness, lack of appetite, pain of the left abdomen, rectal pain and even cramping. We often see mucus in the stool. Ulcerative colitis can be associated with canker sores of the mouth, rashes, and joint problems. Symptoms may come and go, but often will become more severe. Those most affected ulcerative colitis are 15 to 30 years of age with auto-immune problems. Causes of ulcerative colitis may be lifestyle (stress), poor diet (refined and processed foods.) and likely from smoking. NSAIDS (non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) may also be a cause or aggravate the problem. Modern medicine uses various methods of diagnosis, sometimes linking ulcerative colitis with Crohns disease, irritable bowel, colitis, tumors or even diverticulitis. The treatments for ulcerative colitis may be steroids or other immunosuppressive drugs. If symptoms are not being suppressed by medications and their side effects or toxicity, then surgery may be suggested and can create a non reversible problem. All of which have a low success rate. Natural perspectives believe that the body has the ability to repair itself given the right tools and diet. First correct the diet and use nutritional, herbal, homeopathic and cell salt support. Diet is important. Reduce junk foods, smoking, alcohol, coffee, etc. Eat foods that are fresh and those which agree with your gastro-intestinal system.

Natural Diverticulitis Remedies

The intestine is composed of pouches, also known as diverticula. When one or more diverticula become inflamed, the condition diverticulitis occurs. Diverticulitis usually occurs in the large intestine. Diverticulitis is caused when foods become stuck and are not eliminated. The intestinal lining may eventually protrude through the muscular wall of the bowel, and may possibly spread to the abdominal lining (peritoneum). These protrusions, known as fistulas, resemble root-like indentations. When untreated, sores can spread through the abdominal lining, and peritonitis (inflammation of the abdomen) may occur. This occurrence can be lethal due to the high possibility that infection can spread to the blood, create sepsis, and circulate throughout the body. Signs and symptoms of diverticulitis dont often appear until the disease has progressed. When symptoms do appear they may include abdominal pain especially on the left side after eating meals, rectal bleeding or blood in stools, fever, nausea, vomiting, and bowel irregularities such as constipation or diarrhea, gas, or bloating. Causes or contributors of diverticulitis include irregular or insufficient movement of waste through the colon (constipation), changes in intestinal pressure, unbalanced diet, age, and excess weight on the body. Modern medicine provides examinations, drugs such as antibiotics, antispasmodics, and analgesics, and finally surgery to remove part of the colon; mostly they band-aid the symptoms of diverticulitis to make them feel better. From the natural perspective, diverticulitis may be managed through dietary improvements and physical activity. Maximizing your GI tract everyday with proper nourishment and regular bowel habits is key in preventing developing diverticulitis. Any foods that make you feel sluggish or cause intestinal problems (gas, bloating, and indigestion) are most likely not supporting your colon health. Prevention of Diverticulitis: Eliminate tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea, sodas which are high in chemicals, and fast foods which are high calorie and low nutrition with no fiber. Add whole fruits and vegetables which are high in fiber, and other fibers. Increase your water intake between meals. Minimize extra sugar and processed food intake added sugars gunk up the walls of your intestines and may lead to many GI conditions. Minimize intake of saturated fatty acids and trans-fatty acids, as well as highly processed and hormone containing meats.

P a g e | 157

Use natural supplements that may help support healthy intestinal function and keep diverticulitis at bay. Glutamine is an amino acid that supports intestine function. Aloe vera juice (the whole plant with the bitters) may promote healing.

Constipation Natural Remedies

Constipation is the inability to have a bowel movement every day. This creates symptoms of gas, bloating, abdominal discomfort, backache, and possible headache. Causes come from a lack of water (dehydration), lack of proper diet and fiber, lack of exercise (movement of the body), emotional processes and fears, and many types of medications such as pain killers, some antihistamines, antacids, muscle relaxants, anti-depressants, iron, and some diuretics, etc. Many people resort to using laxatives for their constipation symptoms, which can have lasting side effects. Modern medicine should be evaluating prescription drugs to remove components which cause constipation instead of prescribing laxatives for drug-induced constipation. Doctors also do colonoscopies to look for blockages in the intestines, or sometimes use exploratory surgery.
What You Can Do Naturally for Constipation

Identify the causes (they may be many) which interrupt the natural flow of your bowel movements: First, evaluate any medications (for constipation as a side effect or from those that may be drying to your body), then look at medications such as antacids, acid blockers which interfere with digestion and elimination. Next, antibiotics interfere with normal elimination by destroying friendly bacteria. Also look for other drugs such as pain relievers, even as simple as aspirin or heavier such as opiates. When a person can eliminate these medications, then we can look at diet and lifestyle. Next, eat good food and drink water. First eliminate tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea, sodas which are high in chemicals, and fast foods which are high calorie and low nutrition with no fiber. Add whole fruits and vegetables which are high in fiber, and other fibers. Increase your water intake between meals. Increase your fiber. Psyllium husk is great but must be drunk quickly as it gels up. Start with a teaspoon in eight ounces of water once a day and increase as desired.

Flax fiber (ground doesnt gel up and has a pleasant nutty flavor. You can also put a prune or two into 8 ounces of water over night and eat the prune and drink the juice in the morning. Figs can do the same thing and are great for children. Note on fibers: insoluble fibers such as psyllium, flax will increase bowel movement; soluble fibers (dissolve in water) can cause gas and slow down bowel movements. Exercise: Breathing and moving your body helps to massage your intestines while oxygenating your tissues. Use natural supplements to get your digestive tract working better. Use liquid acidophilus to improve the friendly bacteria. Take magnesium as it helps to move the bowels by hydrating the colon to keep things moving.

Whooping Cough Natural Remedies

Whooping cough is an airway inflammation and infection caused by the Bordetella pertussis bacteria. Mostly in adults it acts like a cough which lasts for up to 3 months. In small children whooping cough can be life threatening as they cant cough up mucus effectively. Then there is the characteristic whoop as a coughing fit. Besides the exposure to someone who has whooping cough, I suspect a weakened immune system plays a part in contracting the bacteria. Exposure to others coughing while carrying whopping cough can lead to an incubation period of 4 to 15 days; the next stage of whooping cough is the mucus and spasmodic stage where we see the whoop or coughing fits mostly at night with the face turning red with the coughing episodes. The final stage, or resolution stage, happens when one recovers lung function and breathing and reduces mucus capacity. There may be other respiratory issues such as pneumonia. Medical treatment for whooping cough includes vaccination, multiple times; some have reported no significant help. Antibiotics can be useful in the first week or two if whooping cough is recognized early. After that, antibiotics are often ineffective. Steroids may be used for coughing spasms while other cough medications can make symptoms worse. From the natural perspective whooping cough has been treated successfully by homeopathics and herbs for many decades. In small children, use standard medical treatment or hospitalization if you feel the symptoms are not yet responding or you feel uncomfortable. You can still use natural treatments with prescription medication to good effect. Natural treatments may also be used preventatively to strengthen the immune system. Diet most children lose their appetite during the first stage and will gain appetite on their own timeline and terms; this will keep their mucus to a minimum. One natural supplement to boost the immune system is Zinc; in children 10 mg of a liquid, and up to 100 mg a day for adults.

Drosera (#1 Homeopathic Remedy for Whooping Cough) nervous; violent spasmodic cough; worse at night with nausea or vomiting; mucus sometimes blood streaked; perspires upon awakening; feels better moving; wheezing cough; worse around midnight.
Best Homeopathic Remedies for Whooping Cough according to Jahrs Clinical Guide 1850

In the first period, period of incubation Dulcamara: moist cough from the commencement, with easy expectoration and hoarseness, and when the cough was brought on by taking cold. Pulsatilla: moist cough from the first with vomiting of mucus of the ingesta or mucous diarrhea. In the spasmodic period, with vomiting and bleeding from nose and mouth Cuprum: the body becomes rigid during the paroxysm, with arrest of breathing and loss of consciousness; vomiting after the paroxysms and rattling of mucus in the chest between the paroxysms. (After cupr, veratrum is frequently suitable.) Drosera (top remedy if nothing else): excessive violence of the paroxysms, wheezing cough,; no fever or else high fever with chills and heat, thirst only after the chills, the sweat is rather hot then cool, and sometime sets in only at night; aggravation during rest, relief form motions.

P a g e | 162

Drosera is generally the best remedy for fully developed whooping-cough, with vomiting of food or mucus and bleeding from the mouth and nose. (After dros, veratrum is sometimes suitable.) The convulsive form of whooping-cough is not always fully developed, and it frequently happens that, at a period when the whooping-cough is epidemic, children are seized with a spasmodic cough which is without a great many of the characteristic symptoms of whooping-cough Belladonna: cerebral irritation of the cough is preceded by a painful sensation in the region of the stomach, with bleeding of the nose and mouth, or ecchymosis in the eye; or when other spasmodic symptoms such as tetanus, convulsive asthma etc are present or when the paroxysms terminate in sneezing. Bryonia: the paroxysms set in principally in the evening or at night, or after eating or drinking with loss of breath, want of air, and vomiting of the ingesta. Mercurius: cough only at night or only in the daytime, two paroxysm succeeding each other closely, and separated from the next two paroxysms by a longer interval or repose; or suitable for the real whooping cough, when the children, during the vomiting bleed profusely from the nose and mouth, with profuse sweat at night and great nervousness; especially when the children are affected with worm and are liable to convulsions. (The last mentioned symptoms sometimes require Carb-veg after Merc.) If the convulsive period has run its course, and catarrhal symptoms remain Carbo-veg: the catarrhal cough frequently becomes spasmodic, or the vomiting keeps up though the other symptoms of whooping-cough have disappeared. Hepar: the cough abates, but is hacking, dry and rough with desire to vomit after the paroxysms, and frequent weeping. Although we have distinguished whooping-cough into stages, yet it must not be supposed that the remedies which have been respectively indicated for the different stages cannot be used for any other; on the contrary, many of the remedies which we have mentioned for the spasmodic stage may in many cases be required in the precursory stage and vice versa. Let it be remembered that the selection of a remedy does not depend upon the name of the disease, but upon the symptoms, the pathological character of the disease and the state of the person.

Crohn's Natural Remedies

Crohns disease is an inflammation of parts of the digestive tract; a person may have problems from the mouth to the anus. It affects the large intestine most frequently and those who have Crohns are between the ages of 15 and 40. Crohns affects more women (ages 15 to 50 years old) than men. Crohns involves lymphatic congestion of the colon area and the colon becomes

P a g e | 163

fibrous and unyielding over time, when severe it can create pockets that perforate the colon, and carry toxic materials into the abdominal cavity (leaky gut). Symptoms of Crohns include abdominal pain, appetite loss, gas, bloating, non-bloody diarrhea, open anal sores or other anal problems. A recto scope inspection shows a granulated look in the small intestine. There can also be weight loss from loss of appetite. The symptoms of Crohns disease come and go and may persist for years without serious symptoms. There may also be associated canker sores in the mouth. In medical diagnosis there are pits and ulceration of the small and large intestine. The first cause of Crohns is most likely from a diet devoid of fiber (lacking fresh fruits and vegetables) which also tends to be rich in saturated fats. Increase dietary fiber and eat a more natural diet, devoid of processed foods. Tobacco, alcohol, coffee, soda pop and fast foods should be avoided at all costs. When these factors improve, you can have significant progress. The second cause of Crohns may be stress to which certain people are more susceptible. Combine these two (poor diet and stress) and there may be a bigger problem. These two causes of Crohns are possibilities, yet none are proven, however. Using herbs, cell salts and homeopathic remedies along with diet change can be very effective; for best results use all three of these in combination. Medical treatments target symptoms of Crohns with steroids, antibiotics or other band-aid medications which come with side effects and long-term dependency; they may also cut out sections of the colon. The problem is that the symptoms continue to progress without dietary and stress changes. The natural perspective usually deals with putting out fires from the severe symptoms while helping correct the underlying problems such as improving digestion, reducing stress, etc. One of the biggest challenges is to slowly wean off prescription medication with your doctor while implementing natural therapies. A hurdle to better healthy is getting off acid reducing drugs. NSAIDS (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) pain relievers also tear up the intestinal tract. This will likely take several months. Let pain be your guide. Dont let periods of remission lull you back to your vices.

Symptoms are usually worse when resting or during the nighttime, causing sleep complaints. You may sense creeping, tingling, burning, cramping, aching, itching, pulling and crawling. Sensations may move around and can be experienced in one leg or both. Movements can be either voluntary or involuntary. Causes may come from kidney failure, low iron levels, pregnancy, peripheral neuropathy, folic acid deficiency, thyroid problems or diabetes. Restless legs can become a chronic condition for which the normal medical field has few answers, except to prescribe drugs which may have mild to severe side effects, making things worse. There is no cure but management through drugs. From a natural perspective, Restless Leg Syndrome is clearly a weakness of the nervous and circulatory systems of the legs. Physical activity improves symptoms.

Depression Natural Remedies

From the natural perspective, depression is an important part of life that everyone experiences at one point or another. The causes are many, but as I see it, depression is natures way of making us stop and look at problems in life, and take time to correct them. Depression can just disappear when the cause is found and the problem addressed. Modern medicine has a mistaken belief that anti-depressants are the answer; but these medications may actually hinder the healing process. Anti-depressants can be useful for a short time. Typical results are an emotional numbness and a reduction in sex drive, with other side effects (see drug labesl), and create a dependence that is hard break. The main cause of depression in WOMEN is hormonal imbalances caused by birth control devices, dairy, meat, or other nutritional deficiencies. Premenopausal women may use 3 Vitex capsules or 4 Blessed Thistle capsules a day. Post-menopausal women can use Eleutherococcus (Siberian Ginseng) at 6 capsules a day and may add 4 capsules of Suma. (This will help the adrenal glands to produce the proper hormones and promote healthy function.) The thyroid can also be a physical cause; symptoms are weight gain, lethargy, depression, etc. Use kelp and other natural products to promote a healthy thyroid function. See your doctor to test the thyroid if it is suspected.

P a g e | 174

Other causes of depression include digestive problems, often caused by stress or other factors. The stomach contains MORE SERITONIN than the BRAIN! Hence, the term gut reaction. Use natural digestive enhancers and avoid all acid reducers and neutralizers. Parasites can also be a cause; symptoms include dark circles under the eyes and nervous irritability with digestive disturbances. This is mostly seen in children. There may also be heavy metal toxicity which natural detox supplements help. What you can do naturally is to stay away from tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea, and sodas. Emotional issues can be cause, from many different emotional traumas specific to the individual. Therefore, it is necessary to use the specific homeopathic remedy in combination with the Cell Salt Solution and supportive herbs. ***Do not go off your medications without consulting your doctor. Even then, get off one medication at a time over a 2-month period. Slow down or stop your drug withdrawal if you do not see adequate results from natural medications.

Neuropathy Natural Remedies

Neuropathy, troubles pertaining to nerves, is also commonly known as diabetic neuropathy, or peripheral neuropathy, although other people may have neuropathy symptoms of tingling and numbness of the fingers, toes or legs, inability to experience touch without pain, and possible feelings of cold, burning or pain in the fingers, hands, feet or legs. Because of the pain, there may be a reduced sense of balance and coordination. The person may also experience pain and cramping in muscles.

P a g e | 176

It has been shown that 60% of all diabetics have neuropathy. In diabetics the cause is excess sugar in the blood, whether consumption of sugars is high or there is poor blood sugar control. Contributing factors may include medications and vitamin deficiencies. Peripheral neuropathy can have the same symptoms, yet the causes may be somewhat different from diabetic neuropathy. The leading causes of peripheral neuropathy are statin drugs (for cholesterol), some blood pressure meds as well as some antibiotics, including a leading factor of Vitamin B deficiency, specifically B-1 (thiamine) and B-12 (in the form of Methylcobalamin). Other less common causes of neuropathy may be hypothyroidism (low thyroid), infections, autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, or even some types of cancer. Modern medicine may use opiate pain relievers (addictive and dangerous), anti-depressants, or anti-convulsion medications. These medications, while somewhat effective to alleviate symptoms of neuropathy, often dont address the cause and may add to the toxic burden on the liver. Natural solutions for neuropathy include examining a persons medications, with their doctor, to look for drug causes or other more serious conditions. Most commonly, there is a vitamin deficiency and a lack of blood sugar control (diabetics).

Dry Hair Natural Remedies

Dry brittle hair can break easily. Causes of dry hair include a lack of iron, zinc, or omega fatty acids. Also, dry hair can be caused by lice, fungus. Rarely dry hair comes from a thyroid problem (weight gain, sore leg muscles, exhaustion, thickened skin). It can also be caused by birth control pills, anti-seizure medications or steroids. Modern medicine has few answers. Natural perspectives for dry hair come from a nutritional deficiency and can be corrected by zinc, iron (if low), or omega fatty acids. It can also be poor hormonal health. Always clean up the diet and remove tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea, and sodas.

Dry Skin Natural Remedies

Skin can be dry, itching, scaling or parchment-like. Many people have chronic dry skin conditions. If it is acute dry skin is usually from a lack of water or fluid absorption. There are various medical treatments for dry skin, but they are often based on steroid and other toxic crmes. From the natural perspective dry skin is connective tissue weakness connected with either toxic blood or what Chinese medicine considers a yin deficiency (cold on the outside but hot on the inside from general chronic weakness). Diet eliminate tobacco, alcohol, coffee, sodas, and especially fast foods. Nutrition for Dry Skin Evening primrose oil is good for skin and female health, 500 to 1,000 mg a day. Flax oil is skin and cardio protective at 4,000 mg a day, not as anti-inflammatory as fish oil.

Natural Earache Remedies

Earaches come from infection or inflammation of the inner parts of the ear. They may also be caused by Eustachian tubes that are blocked or inflamed. They can be acute or become chronic over time. Often ear problems, as the Chinese describe, are linked to kidney problems. One can put a hot pack over the kidneys or use other remedies to strengthen the kidneys. Symptoms are various types of pains felt on the inside or outside of the ear; heat, pressure, stabbing pains, etc. Modern medicine treats earaches with antibiotics. While helping in some cases, this does not address the cause. To treat the cause, support the ear and kidney areas of the body and let it heal itself.
Earache Detection

Press on the tragus (outer ear button). If sensitive, it may be a sign of inner ear inflammation.

P a g e | 181

Pull back ears and put pressure on the mastoid bone. If tender or sensitive, it may be an ear inflammation or infection. Further, slide your finger down the bone behind the ear into the canal and push firmly down to the bottom of the neck. Any tenderness along this Eustachian tube (the equalization tube between the ears and the throat) may indicate a blockage and contribute to an earache or infection. Natural solutions reduce inner ear and Eustachian tube congestion and assist the kidneys in reducing fluid pressure within the ears. Diet suggestion avoid dairy products that may cause excess mucus in the body. See also Natural Remedies for Vertigo

Vertigo and Meniere's Disease Natural Remedies

See also Ear Infections, Earaches, and Tinnitus Vertigo is sensation of objects moving and spinning around. Its an inner ear disturbance involving the eyes or visual stimuli. Your inner ears function is for balance and perception for positioning.

P a g e | 183

Causes are most commonly inflammation of inner ear parts, acoustic neuroma (nerve blockage), cerebral artery disease, spinal degeneration, high blood pressure, anemia, thyroid problems, brain tumors, multiple sclerosis, hyperventilation syndrome, anxiety disorders, stroke, Parkinsons, or Menieres syndrome. Most common acute cause is inner ear inflammation (Labyrinthitis) and responds quickly to homeopathy. Acute vertigo is associated with upper respiratory infections and tinnitus (ear noises). Be aware that dizziness can also be a warning sign of heart attack, stroke, concussion, or brain damage. According to Dr. Robin Murphy, N.D., my mentor, if the episodes are short, the prognosis is good. If the episodes are long lasting it is usually neurological. In older women, it may be a sign of mini-strokes or TIA, or could be a sign of Menieres disease where there is an infection of the Eustachian canals. The chronic condition of Menieres syndrome has severe nausea, hearing loss, and tinnitus (ear noises), and may lead to total one-sided hearing loss. It may also be a sign of a tumor. Modern medicine treats vertigo with anything from low-sodium diets and diuretics to nausea medicines, antidepressants, or surgery. From the natural point of view, vertigo should be looked at as either a nerve problem, ear or Eustachian tube blockage, or kidney weakness. Natural solutions include feeding the nerves, reducing Eustachian tube mucus, and strengthening the kidneys. One of the best things you can do is go off dairy products as well as tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea, and soda pop. This will help keep the ears clear and functioning better.

Ear Infection Natural Remedies

Pain in the ears may signal an inner ear infection. Found mostly in infants to children six years of age, ear infections can affect older children as well as adults. Prominent signs of ear infections include pain, crying, pulling at the ears, dizziness, and discharges when the eardrum bursts, loss of hearing, and sometimes glands under the jaw are painful and swollen. Common causes of ear infections include allergic reactions to dairy or baked goods, feeding a child solid food before they are 12 months, reactions to mothers milk from the food she has

P a g e | 185

been eating, and allergens in the air or even second hand smoke. Look for blocked Eustachian tubes also. Modern medicine usually treats ear infections with antibiotics; then the infection usually returns about every few weeks as the antibiotic only treated symptoms. If chronic, then tubes are put in the ears; sometimes this doesnt work. Then there are the side effects and toxicity of the medications involved. The natural perspective includes recognizing and earache before it gets going. An easy method is to press on the bone behind both ears firmly without causing pain, and moving down to press on the Eustachian tube to the bottom of the neck. If the child, or adult, winces or is in pain on either side, then its most likely an earache or infection. Bear in mind that this method will catch most earaches, but check with your doctor. I suspect that children with vaccinations have more earaches; many other natural health practitioners believe the same way. I used the following methods for my children when they were young and found positive results within 24 to 48 hours; you can also do this while the person is on medication. Nutritionally help the child: Breast feed babies to 12 months old and have a diet free of dairy, bakers goods and simple sugars. Use lots of Vitamin C (1000 mg a day unless diarrhea). The following remedies can clear Eustachian tube blockages:

Tinnitus Natural Remedies

See also Ear Infections, Earaches, and Vertigo Tinnitus is when you hear noises that sound from within the head and not from external sources. These noises can be anything from ringing or hissing to buzzing and almost anything else. There are a variety of causes. Loud or persistent job or entertainment noises can cause serious hard to treat tinnitus. It can be caused by ear canal blockage from ear wax. It can be allergies and mucus conditions. A hidden cause of tinnitus might be a fluid imbalance in the body (potassium and sodium imbalance caused by kidney problems). Causes of tinnitus include organic disturbances of the middle ear from too much noise damage over a prolonged period; this one is hard to treat from a medical perspective. Many times tinnitus can be a medication, the most common of which is aspirin-type medications. Other medication such as antibiotics or sedatives can cause tinnitus. An even more common cause of tinnitus is mineral deficiencies such as zinc and magnesium; deficiencies may come from stress or nutritional deficiencies from eating fast foods. Manganese may also be an issue. Congestion from allergic responses may also be an issue. The medical perspective uses diagnosis to determine the cause (a wise course of action) but offers few solutions. Treatments are usually ineffective unless it is a tumor and surgery may help. Anti-depressants have been found to be helpful for some although little research exists. Remember, other drugs may be causing tinnitus as a side effect check your medications.

P a g e | 187

Tinnitus Natural Help From the natural perspective we look to the causes. If a mineral deficiency, use Zinc at 50 mg, Manganese at 5 mg and Magnesium (enough to loosen the stool, but not to diarrhea). High pitched noises need to be dealt with kidney remedies. Low-pitched sounds are best treated with liver remedies. Other possibilities include nerve damage from a high-noise environment. It can be effectively treated with whatever you decide, using a combination of supplements for at least 2 months at a time. Diet may play a big factor especially when a persons diet consists of nutrient deficient foods such as fast food. Remove foods that obstruct circulation such as alcohol, tobacco, caffeinated soda pop, and coffee; and also these things may cause nutritional deficiencies. Foods that contain aspirin-like compounds such as grapes, almonds, cherries, apricots, and wine should be avoided. Caffeine is implicated in a significant portion of people with tinnitus. Caffeinated foods include foods such as sodas, green and black teas, as well as chocolate. If mucus congestion of the ears is a problem then you can reduce problems by eliminating dairy products or other foods that increase mucus. Regular exercise will help to promote better circulation. Hot foot baths and cold calf packs will help stimulate circulation and reduce ear noises. To help nerve health, take a good B-Complex over several months. Zinc supplementation (50mg per day) is often helpful. Manganese is helpful as a trace mineral. Many practitioners feel that magnesium deficiency is the main cause for tinnitus. Start off with one capsule and increase daily until the bowel loosens up. Stop just before having diarrhea.

Hearing Loss Natural Remedies

Hearing loss is a complex subject where overall volume of hearing is affected. Hearing loss may pertain to noises in the ear (tinnitus) which compete with other sound. Hearing loss will affect over one third of those

P a g e | 189

over the age of 65. Primary hearing loss may be an obstruction in the ear canal, mostly from ear wax build up. Ayurvedic medicine calls it is a sign of cholesterol buildup. Secondary hearing loss is damage to the nerves or hairs which mechanically gather sound. Causes of hearing loss of this type are loud noises of music from earphones, rock concerts, or jobs in noisy environments. Another cause of hearing loss is mechanical injury to the ear drum, or inner ear apparatuses. It may be due to injury, medications, tumors, neuroma, etc. Working in a noisy environment or shooting guns without ear protection may cause hearing loss. Always wear protection. Symptoms of hearing loss include not recognizing certain musical pitches, persons voices, or losing direction of the sound. Emotionally the symptoms of hearing loss can cause a person to gradually withdraw from company of others, and avoid people or situations. This may be conscious from pride, or they may be annoyed subconsciously. Physical causes of hearing loss come mostly from ear wax buildup or some other obstruction of the ear canal. Other causes of temporary hearing loss are drugs. The worst offender is long-term or short-term use of high doses of aspirin. Some antibiotics and other medications may be the cause. Hearing loss may be sudden or slow and may start with infections of the ears, high fevers, and may be linked to tinnitus (ear noises) or Menieres disease (dizziness and ear noises) etc. In children and some adults causes of hearing loss are from sinus congestion or Eustachian tube blockage and can be treated effectively. You must use diagnosis and determine what the cause of hearing loss is in order to treat it correctly. Have the ear canals checked for ear wax buildup. Most often modern medicine resorts to hearing aids. If the damage from hearing loss is too severe, then that may be your only option. Several types of hearing aids are effective. Natural methods for may be effective for some types of hearing loss, so first check with a hearing specialist to determine the cause of hearing loss. Then use some natural methods. First quiet your environment. Take the ear buds and music out of your environment several hours of the day. When using ear buds make sure the music is low enough for you to be able to carry on a conversation. From a spiritual viewpoint, who are you listening to all the time? It is only when you can find an inner quiet and connect to your spiritual voice or higher power that you can find inner peace and joy. Diet is always important. To remove mucus from the body complete removal of dairy products is essential. Then remove tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea and processed foods.

Stress also plays a part in hearing loss. Too much noise in an enclosed space (small room) or many people can cause hearing loss. My theory is a lot of older people have cholesterol buildup in their head and brain and reduced blood flow and this may lead to hearing loss. Chinese medicine says that hearing (tinnitus) noises or hearing loss is either a slow onset or fast onset. Sudden hearing loss is related to an excessive inflammation condition of the liver. It is always related to a high-pitched whistle-like sound. If you press your hand over your ears and the noise is worse, it is the same for deafness. Chronic or slow onset ear noises (tinnitus) or cause of hearing loss is related to deficient kidney function. It may also have a heart-blood deficiency. If you put your hands over your ears and the noise is less, then it is this condition. Use natural remedies for hearing loss.

Eczema Natural Remedies

See other Skin Natural Remedies Eczema is a Greek word meaning to boil out. Too many amino acids are put out through the skin which breaks down the epidermis. Dry eczema has flakes and scales. Wet eczema has discharge coming through the damaged skin. Acute eczema comes on suddenly and lasts less than two weeks. Chronic eczema can come on suddenly or slowly and lasts longer than two weeks. Other types of eczema include: allergic eczema, contact eczema, coin-shaped eczema, and eczema in flexures (folds of the skin). See homeopathic remedies for these types of eczema and childrens eczema. Most causes of eczema usually relate to liver or kidney health. Liver signs include anger and irritability symptoms. Physical problems are usually right-sided. Also look for brown or yellow coloration of the skin. Kidney signs include fears and forgetfulness. Physical signs are abnormal urinary habits or pains in the lower back area. Kidney eczema is usually round in character with a border and reddish inside. Other causes of eczema may be emotional stresses. Modern medicine uses steroids to treat eczema which suppress the immune system. Avoid internal and external doctor-prescribed medications or over-the-counter medicines as they are toxic and only suppress the problem deeper into the body. Remember that 60% of everything that is put on the skin goes into the body and has to be detoxified. Chronic eczema can come on suddenly but lasts longer than two weeks. The skin is thickened, with blisters, wrinkles and flaking. Itching is less intense than in acute eczema. Cause: develops out of acute stage. Important: prevent constipation, do fruit fasts, eat more raw foods. Acute eczema happens suddenly and lasts less than 2 weeks and can be associated with contact dermatitis. Discontinue use of remedies when skin is better. Acute problems usually go away quickly with the right remedy. Use Florasone crme by Boericke & Tafel (Cardiospermum) externally. Acute eczema symptoms start with a red spot. Itching; it can follow from knots, blisters, pustules; discharge is clear and crusts appear; it can move to other areas. Acute eczema comes from allergic conditions and can come from contaminated blood stemming from foods, medications, bacteria, etc. Eczema and Asthma See Asthma Natural Remedies It is commonly known in the natural care circles that people with eczema often also have asthma. This is the result of steroid treatments for eczema. This suppressive measure can weaken the lungs with a resulting asthmatic condition.

P a g e | 192

People with this condition may see the asthma condition improved when the eczema flares up. It is the bodys response to throwing toxins to the surface. When the eczema is fairly calm, the asthma usually flares up. It feels like chasing your own tail. The steroids are administered as inhalers or topically for the eczema. Look for the cell salt formula below to be used topically and in a water solution to be sipped all day. When the proper mineral balance of the body is met, the condition subsides, possibly going away completely. Dietary needs are a cleansing diet and elimination of dairy products. From the natural perspective on eczema we ascertain the underlying organ or organs that are telling us that something is wrong; its like the warning light in our car. We can use a combination of nutrition, diet, and lifestyle and strengthen the right organ with cell salt herbs or homeopathics. Sometimes results can be seen in a few days, but usually results are seen in a few weeks to months. Eczema and Omega 3 Fatty Acids Supplements that support the skin include essential fatty acids such as Omega 3 fatty acids derived from fish oils. Adults need 6,000 mg to 10,000 mg a day for skin and cardiovascular health. Vegetarians may use Borage or Evening primrose oil at 3,000 mg a day. I feel it is essential to take one of these fatty acids. It is important to use natural remedies for eczema topically to help soothe the skin as the internal organs heal. Use Florasone crme by Boericke & Tafel (Cardiospermum) externally. Use Psoriaflora by Boericke &Tafel (Berberis Aquifolium tincture) externally.

Asthma Natural Remedies

Asthma is an inflammatory condition of the airways that makes it hard to breath. Other symptoms of asthma may include wheezing, shortness of breath, dry irritating cough, and chest tightness. Breathing at night may also be a problem. Causes of asthma are usually a combination of things including allergens like pollution, dust, and smoke; diet, stress, and heredity. There can be emotional factors affecting asthma like guilt or grief. Homeopathy for asthma may help these emotional factors. Many children suffer from asthma. It is the number one chronic disease affecting children. Modern medicine treats asthma condition with inhalers or other medications for inflammation and opening airways. They consider asthma incurable and seek to control it.
There are natural remedies for asthma that help support body systems. From the natural perspective, we need to strengthen the respiratory and immune systems with herbs, cell salts, homeopathy for asthma and good nutrition. There are many forms of asthma and many natural supplements. What works for one person may be totally different from what works for another. Most of natural supplements can be used with medications. Be sure to consult a healthcare professional to coordinate your treatment.

Emphysema Natural Remedies

See Bad Habits Homeopathy class notes and Stop Smoking Natural Remedies Emphysema is part of the COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) family of respiratory problems. In emphysema, the alveoli (air sacs of the lungs) are damaged and lose their elasticity. This means that a person absorbs less oxygen.

P a g e | 199

Symptoms of emphysema include not being able to breath on a regular basis, coughing up mucus or difficulty clearing the lungs (not expectorating mucus), and wheezing. It feels difficult to breathe out. Causes of emphysema start with smoking, but may also be seen in those who breathe secondhand smoke, or those who live in polluted or industrial environments. Modern medicine treats emphysema with steroids or other inhalers which have long-term serious side effects. It is seen as a life-long treatment. Oxygen also may be used to help those with emphysema. From the natural perspective those with emphysema have damaged lungs with loss of breathing capacity. The good news is there can be some good results by using a combination of the following supplements to help to strengthen the body. Remember it is important to eliminate tobacco, alcohol, coffee, and sodas, as well as fast foods. If you are on medications for emphysema, you should be able to use these natural supplements along with your medications. DO NOT alter your prescriptions without talking with your healthcare professional.

Far-Sighted Aging Eye Natural Remedies

People in their forties to fifties seem to lose vision; the lenses of the eyes become hard and the ability to focus becomes worse. Causes are generally aging, perhaps heredity. Women going through menopause can experience farsightedness too. Poor nutrition and drug side effects may contribute to this aging phenomenon. Vision changes vary from person to person; those who are nearsighted can become partially farsighted. Many people use glasses, change prescriptions frequently, or using reading glasses as well as bifocals. From the natural perspective, we want to prevent aging by eating healthy, consuming antioxidants in foods and supplements. Starting early, like in your thirties, is the key. Prevention of aging eyes and eye health in general:

Use plenty of light to read Go to bed when tired Use eye exercises to keep eye muscles strong Avoid contacts (Your eye must create new blood vessels as contacts deprive eyes of oxygen.)

Glaucoma Natural Remedies

See other eye natural remedies. When there is too much pressure inside the eye it is called Glaucoma which may peel off the retina and can cause blindness. It is the main cause of blindness. It happens in 2% of people over 40 years of age; two thirds are women and one third are men. It is often found in women during menopause. Acute glaucoma has PAIN, redness, hazy vision, nausea, and rainbow vision, coming on suddenly. See your eye doctor immediately! Chronic glaucoma has no pain and almost no symptoms. It may be noticed as a loss of side vision or blind spots growing. It is diagnosed most frequently by an eye doctor. Causes are seen as adrenal insufficiency, injury, lack of circulation, or injury. It may also be caused from steroid drops in the eyes over a period of time. Toxicity such as tobacco and alcohol contribute. Modern medicine treats glaucoma with eye drops that must be used forever or other medications (side effects). Some success has been seen with surgery and lasers. Natural perspective considers the liver as well as adrenal exhaustion as players. German authors recommend diuretic formulas for successful treatment. Natural treatments can be effective but one must be diligent with frequent visits to the eye doctor to determine success. Emotionally, glaucoma is a sign of inner tension. A German saying is, at the end of life, man looks through a tunnel. This is a sign of blocked feelings such as fear, worry, and grief. The blocked feelings are also seen in blocked tear ducts where it is symbol of uncried tears. It is also connected to the breath. When breathing is free, inner pressures of life and physical problems are released. It is better to examine the causes and learn from them, and release inner emotional blocks. One can remain for a long time depressed when emotional blocks are not confronted. It is painful temporarily, but a releasing emotional conflicts lead to spiritual freedom.

Degeneration of the maculae, which is the center of the retina, affects 1 in 4 people over the age of 65. There are two types; dry and wet. Dry is with a yellowish deposit underneath the retina and is most common (about 90% of cases). Wet is about 10% of cases with bleeding of the

P a g e | 211

maculae. The symptoms include slowly degrading central vision, weak colors, distortions, and reading vision gets gradually worse. Causes are most likely from arteriosclerosis (high cholesterol) from a poor diet or smoking. Alcohol can also damage the eyes. Also there may be a lack of antioxidants in the diet. Medical treatment: wet macular degeneration can be helpful by laser to seal or stop any bleeding. The most common form is the dry macular degeneration and they have almost no solution for this. Progressive eye doctors may suggest antioxidants. What to do maintain moderate exercise; eliminate tobacco, alcohol, coffee, and black tea for your diet; use antioxidant supplements and other supplements to strengthen weakened areas. Using natural remedies for months is important. Most important nutritional supplements: Zeanthin antioxidant that can help to maintain cellular integrity within the maculae Lutein antioxidant that can help to maintain cellular integrity within the maculae Others which are helpful: Pycnogenol antioxidant helpful for eye and vision problems Grape seed extract antioxidant as well as maintaining vascular integrity (vein health) Zinc essential for vision integrity, cell use a lot of zinc

Near-sighted (Myopia) Eye Natural Remedies

Myopia means poor distant vision. It affects about 30% of people in the Unites States. It happens frequently when children read a lot at a young age. Studies show that those in confined areas develop myopia more often. It is also seen more in those people who use computers or watch television too much. Treatment usually results in glasses. Contact lenses can cause loss of oxygen and create extra blood veins in the eyes. Lasik surgery is another option but may cause dry eyes. Use natural treatment to help the vision over a period of time. Eye exercises may be helpful as well as good nutrition. Other ideas include not focusing on the computer or television. Nutritional supplements include a whole-food multi-vitamin by New Chapter for superior absorption.

Eye Posterior Vitreous Detachment (PVD) Natural Remedies

PVD is a condition where the vitreous part of the eye detaches at the back of the eye and threatens the optic nerve. This is a serious health problem that needs to be addressed by a professional. The symptoms when sever are a sensation of cobwebs before the eyes. It is called PVD and is a rare condition (fortunately). Causes may be some sort of weakness or injury. Modern medicine uses surgery and may be essential. It may not help everyone. Natural solutions are meant to prevent the condition by strengthening the eyes and the tissues. Use several while waiting for professional treatment, and use afterward to prevent relapses. (Get regular checkups.) Nutritionally, use Lutein to help protect the retina.

Retina Eye Natural Remedies

See also Eye Natural Remedies The retina is the most back part of the eye that identifies and is sensitive to light. When the light hits the retina, photoreceptors cause a chemical change in the rods and cones to send messages to the brain. Retina problems can come from several causes, from mechanical injuries or diseases such as diabetes. It may also come from lack of circulation or oxygen. Medical treatments for retina problems include surgery, laser treatments, and more. They are often successful, but not always. Natural treatments can be used with other therapies and medicines. I have seen some amazing results. Use medical diagnostics and symptoms for best results. The natural therapies are safe and will not interfere with other therapies. For good eye nutrition, use a whole-food natural vitamin from New Chapter. The absorption is better with this type of supplement. Always eliminate tobacco as it reduces circulation and damages cells. Severely reduce alcohol to one or two drinks a week as it damages the liver which is our primary detoxification mechanism. Coffee or black tea contains alkaloids that stress the liver and kidneys. Sodas reduce calcium and have too much sugar or artificial sweeteners that may be toxic.

Eye Strain, Tired Eyes Natural Remedies

Overuse from too much television or computer use strains the eyes. Eyes may itch or burn or sting. Other causes of tired eyes can come from sand or dust, or allergies etc. Modern medicine often treats the symptoms of tired eyes with over-the counter drugs or eye drops. There may be some side effects and they dont get to the cause. From the natural perspective we can strengthen the weakness of the system whether it is due to liver imbalance or stress. These can cause weakness of the eye muscles. Clean up your diet and remember to avoid alcohol, tobacco, coffee, soda pop and junk food. Lutein and Zeanthin (antioxidants) taken as daily supplements are valuable to protect the eyes. Use combination eye drops from Similisan for temporary relief.

Natural Face Pain (Trigeminal Neuralgia) Remedies

Severe pains that are burning or shooting that comes from facial nerves that come out near the lips, gums, or cheeks. It involves the face, scalp, teeth, nose, ears and other areas. There are six specific spots where the facial nerves come out of the skull. There are pain points. Two of those points are in the eyebrows, two others are on either side of the nose, just above the wings. The other two are in the middle of the chin, next to on another.

the nerves that cause the pain. Surgery may soothe pains but cause numbness, other problems, or even more pain. Natural medicine looks at trigeminal neuralgia as a problems with nerves as a result of mineral deficiencies, stress or unknown physical causes. The goal is to calm the nerves, relieve stress that will lead to pain relief. Nutrition is important to remove nutritional stressors such as tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea and sodas as a start. Nerve health can be increased nutritionally by using food-based B-Complex vitamins from New Chapter, Megafood or Garden of Life.

Fainting Natural Remedies

Fainting happens when a person experiences temporary loss of consciousness. They may turn pale, sweat, feel light-headed, fall, have leg weakness, or experience dizziness. Fainting can happen when blood rushes to the head from various causes. Sometimes with fainting there is a rapid heartbeat. Causes of fainting include strong odors, emotional excitement or upset, mineral imbalances, hypoglycemia, anemia, dehydration, cardiovascular or neurological problems. Medications such as anti-depressants, tranquilizers, or high blood pressure medicines may also cause someone to feel faint. Modern medicine mostly uses electrolytes and changes in diet to help with fainting. No major drugs are used.
Naturally, look for the cause of fainting and treat the cause. If medications are not causing fainting, look to the nervous system or blood sugar problems (hypoglycemia). Natural supplements can help with fainting: Chromium and frequent protein shakes help keep blood sugar levels normal for those with hypoglycemia.

To do this, blood flow to the skin and the heart rate are increased to create better circulation, and then elimination is improved. Disease organisms (viruses from flu or cold) are garbage men just trying to do their job. Help them by facilitating heat and sweating. Then they multiply the work force and the job is done quicker. Hydrotherapy, homeopathy, cell salts, and herbs can help this. Prevention is always your best option. Following healthy diet and lifestyle habits does that. A poor diet increases mucus production in the body. Mucus is produced in response to a toxin build up in the body. Toxins are produced by poor digestion, but more importantly by mucus producing foods such as dairy products, fast foods, processed foods, tobacco, alcohol, coffee, and soda pop, to mention a few.

REMEMBER, WHEN IN DOUBT, SEE A DOCTOR! Modern medicine uses medications to treat fever. These medications can adversely affect the liver while the cause still goes unattended. To reduce the fever artificially only causes toxicity to go deeper into the tissues. Antibiotics are a temporary fix that leaves the dead bacteria as a toxic refuse

Children's Natural Fever Remedies

See Natural Remedies for Adult Fevers> A rise in body temperature above 99 Fahrenheit constitutes a fever. Symptoms may include tiredness, weakness, heat of the forehead, and chills. Causes of fever include toxicity, or the flu or a cold, and may be commonly connected with ear infections. The thyroid, pituitary, and hypothalamus malfunction can also contribute to body temperature. The childs diet may also be the cause of fever. From the medical perspective, fever is an inappropriate response of the immune system and is treated with antibiotics, cold baths, and cold wet towels. While these may temporarily drop the temperature, they dont solve the underlying problems. The most common medical solution is to administer Tylenol which may damage the liver and cause overdosing in children due to the sweet flavorful taste. From the natural perspective, fevers are the bodys response to accumulated toxins. They are a barometer as to what is going on inside our body. Disease organisms are garbage men just trying to do their job. Help them by facilitating the heat and sweating. Then they multiply the work force and the job is done quicker. Hydrotherapy, homeopathy, cell salts, and herbs can help this. REMEMBER, WHEN IN DOUBT, SEE A DOCTOR! In little children the fever can rise to 106 Fahrenheit without problems. For children with high fevers of 105-106 use sponge baths to bring down fever a degree or two. The biggest challenge is to keep children hydrated. Children that will drink fluids are usually safe using natural methods. Dry fevers are dangerous as the child will not drink and this may necessitate going to the doctor. Of course, fevers treated early are easier to manage. If you feel uncomfortable at any time or the fever is uncontrolled for more than 48 hours check with your doctor. The first thing is prevention by having a clean diet that is free of dairy, simple or refined sugars and fast foods.

Natural Uterine Fibroid Support

Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths inside or outside of the uterus and may cause excessive or severe bleeding. Up to 30% of women experience uterine fibroids and 20% of these may need intervention. The growths may be so large as to displace other organs or interfere with proper functioning. Doctors often use surgery to remove large uterine fibroids. Symptoms include severe bleeding, painful bleeding, pain in the pelvic region, headaches, backaches, irritable rectum and bladder, profuse vaginal discharges, especially watery. Stalk-like fibroids that extend into the pelvic cavity can cause pain, nausea, or fever. Larger uterine fibroids

P a g e | 227

may be detected by a pelvic exam as they can grow to the size of a basketball. The size of the fibroids can cause some to the symptom to other organs as they grow. Brown spots on the face, especially around the mouth, may be an indication of uterine fibroids. Menstrual irregularity, another symptom of uterine fibroids, may be caused by excessive estrogen production from chronic use of estrogen-containing drugs like birth control pills. When birth control pills are discontinued, regular cycles and fertility may ensue. Less than 1% of uterine fibroids become cancerous. A release of melanotropin from the posterior pituitary can cause uterine fibroids. However, they are most commonly cause by chemical birth control and a diet heavy in meat, which is also high in estrogens.
A natural treatment begins with early elimination of chemical birth control and a vegetarian diet. Natural ways can be effective especially if treated early. If not severe, fibroids can diminish naturally at menopause when progesterone starts to drop off.

Balfour, M.D.: I believe that many uterine fibroids could be cured, if the homeopath was allowed to treat them. After all, a fibroid tumor is made up of muscle and varying amount of fibrous tissue. It is not malignant, burrowing into surrounding structures till firmly anchored therein. True, after a long time, an occasional fibroid may show signs of malignant degeneration, but they are harmless for many years. The lump of muscle, if not too big, should yield to homeopathy.

Fibromyalgia Natural Remedies

Fibromyalgia (FMS) is a soft tissue musculoskeletal syndrome that is similar to Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. It differs from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) in that the primary symptom of fatigue that is experienced by CFS patients is replaced with musculoskeletal pain in fibromyalgia patients. 90% of fibromyalgia patients are women, usually aged 20-60 (most commonly 45 to 55). Although Fibromyalgia is less prevalent in men, men experience more severe symptoms of Fibromyalgia. Western medicine is beginning to acknowledge Fibromyalgia. The diagnosis often comes after all other diagnoses are exhausted. The theories of cause are all over the place, with one common theory; that it stems from some physical trauma. Hypothyroidism may be a possible precipitating factor (and possibly a direct cause) of Fibromyalgia. Dr. Robin Murphy, N.D., my mentor, has proposed that it is a condition based upon emotional issues with males. It makes sense to me, as most sufferers are women and practically every man I have seen for Fibromyalgia has been abused by some male in their life. The few exceptions are likely physical trauma. Case in point: Some time ago a woman called me about Fibromyalgia, as it started with an abusive second marriage. She divorced him and married a fine loving man, but the symptoms persisted. She had not resolved her issues with the abusive marriage. Often, emotional issues can affect our physical body in the form of a condition or disease. This particular condition is sometimes mistaken for or associated with Epstein-Barr Syndrome or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Major symptoms include muscular pain, depression, anxiety, severe exhaustion, memory, insomnia, digestive problems, blood sugar problems and urinary problems. Here are some descriptions: Irritable bowel syndrome is one of the minor symptoms of Fibromyalgia. 70% of patients experience irritable bowel syndrome which is characterized by alternating diarrhea and constipation, intestinal cramps, flatulence and nausea. Generalized fatigue is one of the minor symptoms of Fibromyalgia. 85% of patients experience overwhelming tiredness accompanied by an inability to perform physical tasks. It may occur without any precipitating events.

P a g e | 229

Anxiety is one of the minor symptoms of Fibromyalgia (62% experience), along with irritability and over-concern without any specific precipitating events causing these feelings. Chronic headache or migraine is one of the minor symptoms of Fibromyalgia (approx. 70% experience). Natural solutions include using supplements and good dietary nutrition for reducing stress and muscular pain. It is important to find a homeopathic remedy to help you deal with the emotional issues that keep the pain intact. For a little extra help, use the following supplements that may help with or prevent symptoms of Fibromyalgia: Vitex helps to increase progesterone which may alleviate some cases of Fibromyalgia (according to anecdotal reports). Magnesium deficiency within muscle fibers is speculated to be a factor in the development of Fibromyalgia. Daily supplementation of 300 - 600 mg of magnesium, especially from the Magnesium malate form, may result in significant improvements in the number of tender points in Fibromyalgia patients (supposedly from the malic acid content of magnesium malate, rather than the magnesium content). MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) has anti-inflammatory affects and is speculated to be a useful treatment for Fibromyalgia.

FLU (Influenza) Natural Remedies

Influenza Viruses are characterized by fevers, chills and body aches. It is the body's way of eliminating toxins. Contributing causes of viruses may be from toxin buildup, possibly from a poor diet, too much tobacco, alcohol, coffee, soda, and fast foods. There are few medical treatments. Anti-viral medications are not used for common flu viruses. However, from a natural approach, there are remedies that build the immune system and increase the body's ability to eliminate toxins. Many people ask me if they should get a flu shot, or not. Truthfully, flu vaccinations have not been proven to work and may contain mercury and other toxic substances. Scientifically, there are over 300 viruses floating around at any one time. That leaves less than 1% chance of success! There are other issues of safety and efficacy, including side effects. In France, many doctors recommend using Oscillococcinum once a week for prevention of the flue or several times a day at the onset of the flu symptoms. I suggest using a few pellets of Oscillo weekly. This should be enough to stimulate the immune system naturally.

P a g e | 232

It is nice to know that you can help the body work through a virus condition, but prevention is even better. A good immune system prevents a virus from reproducing wildly and making you sick. You can improve your immune system by eliminating dairy products, coffee, black tea, alcohol, soda pop and tobacco. Use a natural food source Vitamin C, and the herbs, cell salts, and homeopathics below.

Food Poisoning Natural Remedies

Food poisoning comes when we have a bad reaction to spoiled or poorly handled foods. There may bacteria such as E coli, salmonella, or staphylococcus or others. The symptoms can be slight to life-threatening and last 4 to 6 days if left untreated. Symptoms of food poisoning include upset stomach, intestinal cramps, nausea, or fever. If severe, there may be dehydration. If severe enough a person may need medications ALWAYS CHECK WITH YOUR DOCTOR or go to emergency if symptoms get out of control. If you have taken antibiotics, use probiotics like Acidophilus for 30 days after. From the natural perspective one may have a susceptibility to a specific bacteria from a lack of normal stomach acid and weakened immune system. Natural methods below may eliminate or shorten symptoms. Liquid acidophilus, drink 16 ounces throughout the day. See also Acid Reflux, Heartburn Remedies or Gastroparesis Natural Remedies

Fungal Infection Natural Remedies

Infection caused by funguses can cause cracking, bleeding, and pustules. The cause comes from a weakened immune system and exposure to damp dirty conditions. Regular medicine treats it with oral anti-fungal medications that are often funguses themselves. If original causes are not corrected, medicines must be used for a lifetime. There is also danger to the liver from medications. From the natural perspective, fungal infections can be a result of excess sugar intake and other debilitating dietary problems. This causes acidity, and as the Chinese describe it, it becomes a damp heat condition. You can remove alcohol, tobacco, coffee, black tea, and dairy as well as fruit juices and refined sugars.

Natural Remedies for Gallstones

Gallstones are an over accumulation of bile that forms stones which can block the bile duct and become extremely painful. Symptoms include indigestion, gas, and bloating. There can be a sensation of fluttering or pain in the region of the low right ribs. There may also be a soreness of the lower tip of the right shoulder blade. Common causes include a poor diet, and some prescription medications. Some authorities on the subject think it is an over consumption of fats. Almost exclusively, the medical field removes the gallbladder and many surgeons will also remove a healthy appendix just in case. Many people will report benefits while others feel worse afterward. From a natural perspective, besides the physicality of poor liver function or diet, gallstones are seen as accumulated anger or resentment.

P a g e | 236 What you can do naturally is to clean up your diet, eliminating tobacco, alcohol, coffee, or black tea. Stay away from fast foods. A slow and healthy method of removing stones is to take a teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil with a teaspoon of fresh-squeezed lemon juice in 8 ounces of apple juice and drink before bed each night for 12 weeks. I have found this very effective.

Gastroparesis Natural Remedies

See also Acid Reflux - Gerd > or Heartburn > Gastroparesis happens when the stomach is slow to empty its contents into the duodenum, although there is no obstruction. You may experience some or several symptoms including nausea, vomiting, stomach spasm, loss of appetite, feeling full after a few bites, or bloating. It is often hard to diagnose without looking inside the stomach (only done by a doctor with proper equipment). Another cause could be insulin resistance. Modern medicine treats gastroparesis with medications that force the stomach muscles to expel the food. Side effects cause many of the similar symptoms as gastroparesis as if they are trying to treat it nausea and vomiting. The common cause is a diet rich in fat (including fast food) or high-fiber foods. Other causes can be medications, eating disorders, nervous disorders, thyroid problems and more. Diet changes are essential, along with the help of herbs, homeopathic remedies, and cell salts. Be sure to eliminate tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea and sodas as well as fast food.

Gray Hair Natural Remedies

Gray hair is not always related to age. It is the process where pigmentation of the hair is lost and the hair appears in various stages of gray. The changes can happen very suddenly or gradually. Causes of gray hair include heredity, stress, thyroid imbalances, anemia, and B-12 deficiency. Smoking and alcohol also contribute to early graying. Smokers are four times as likely to gray earlier. Many women, and now men, dye their hair, however, hair dyes can be toxic for some people. Natural Henna may be used to add color, although they are not as long lasting as permanent dyes.
From the natural perspective we want to look at preventing gray hair and gray hair reversal by supporting the thyroid, and helping with anemia and nutritional deficiencies. Homeopathic remedies, cell salts, and herbs can assist. Eliminate other substances that may make it harder to reverse gray hair by stressing the body such as tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea, and fast foods.

Hair Loss in Women Natural Remedies

Hair loss in women is usually in the form of androgen alopecia where there is too much testosterone in relation to estrogen. The hair is thinning. Hair loss in women may be due to a weak thyroid. Sometimes women lose hair after childbirth because they dont lose hair at the normal rate during pregnancy. But after having a baby, women will seem to lose more hair than average; this will calm down after a short time. If this is not the case, hair loss may be due to PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome). PCOS is excessive androgen causing either excessive hair (Hirsutism) or hair loss. Both may be from the same basic cause. Medical perspective is to suppress androgens with Spirolactone or other medications and artificial sex hormones. They may even recommend topical hair gain methods which are expensive and must be used continuously or you lose the hair. There is toxicity and many side effects while not treating the cause for real cure. Natural perspective on hair loss in women is to treat the causes such as hormonal imbalances (excessive androgens, a weak thyroid, not enough nutrition, and even stress). This can be very successful with many benefits (mental, physical, emotional and no toxicity). Take a combination of the herbs, cell salts, and homeopathics for best effect.

Migraine Headache Natural Remedies

Migraines begin about puberty or later, and attack all ages and both sexes; females in general and young people are more liable to be attacked than other person. Migraine is distinguishable by the suddenness and changeability of symptoms sometimes on the left, and then the right side, at other times the front or the back part of the head being more or less affected. In most cases vomiting takes place when the attack is at its worst, after while the patient falls into a beneficial sleep of several hours duration from which he wakes free from pain. These pains generally return every three or four weeks, unless they are cured or helped in the meantime. Symptoms sometimes there are certain preceding symptoms such as shivering, feelings of sickness, giddiness, incapacity for concentrated thought, irritability, yawning, and rabid hunger, etc; next violent, boring, pressing, bursting and heavy or dull pains, located in any part of the head; the sense of hearing and sight is extremely delicate, on which account the person prefers to be in a dark, quiet room. The affected side of the face is sometimes pale and shrunken, the ears cold, and the pupils enlarged or may be hot, red and swollen. The temporal veins distended, pulse rapid, the white of the eye red, the pupil contracted, the eye itself watering and painful. Most causes are not well established as some say it is a genetic predisposition; the fundamental reason seems to be disturbance in circulation stagnation of the blood in the brain and is probably intimately connected with some digestive complaint (stomach, liver/gallbladder problem) and with an irregular blood circulation of the whole system. Dilatation of the stomach, autointoxication (when we ferment food that sits in stomach creating toxicity), disease of the sympathetic system, faulty nutrition, digestive upset, eye strain, heredity, mental and physical exhaustion, excessive meat eating, and excessive emotions are all causes of migraine. It may also arise from anemia of the brain, irregularities in menstruation, or general irritability. Modern medicine sees migraine headaches as incurable and attempts to control them with medications for the rest of a persons life. These medications are not without side effects, and some people find no relief.

Hernia Natural Remedies

Hernias are a weakness of the connective tissue in the lower abdominal region. Problems in hernias can range from a slight abnormal belly protrusion to a strangulation of the intestines. One may notice a bulge or protrusion around the navel area as the most common sign of hernia. Male children can have a hernia in the scrotum. Middle-aged obese people can have lower abdominal or groin hernias. Common causes include poor connective tissue health from wrong dietary habits; obesity; and lack of exercise (muscle tone). The common fix is surgery, but is not always a permanent solution. This can also have side effects and doesnt solve the underlying connective tissue weakness problem. Natural healing comes when we help the body to correct the connective tissue problem internally and externally. According to homeopathic literature, the body has the ability to repair hernias if they havent gone too far. It usually takes 1 to 6 months. Be careful that they dont strangulate (cut off the intestinal flow). Nutrition for Hernia and connective tissue health includes: MSM suggested use of 4,000 to 6,000 milligrams a day for joint and tissue health. Glucosamine HCL connective tissue health. Magnesium Malate for muscular health. Use as much as can be tolerated without diarrhea.

Hives Natural Remedies

Hives can come on sudden or have a gradual onset of blister or welt-like bumps on the skin. Hives may last from a few hours to several weeks. They usually only involve the top layer of the skin which is superficial and usually doesnt affect deeper organs. It is thought to be a release of toxins to the surface of the body. Hives may also come as an allergic reaction and a release of histamine from mast cells. They are often itchy or painful. The causes of hives most commonly known is from allergies to foods, chemicals plants, or medications. The most common medicine to bring on hives is antibiotics. A more serious form of hives involves deeper skin layers and can be seen in the mouth and may stop a persons breathing, or become anaphylactic shock. Modern medicine uses testing to determine that more serious problems are not involved. They often prescribe antihistamines or steroids such as prednisone to treat hives. Mostly, they wait for the hives to go away on their own. Note that all medications, over-the-counter and prescribed, stress the liver and cause varying amounts of toxicity. Natural perspective on hives recognizes that there is an underlying problem of one or more organs. When a person produces hives, it is a visible sign that either the liver or the kidneys are not functioning optimally. This is not well known but is highly effective to treat the correct organ. Hives mostly denote stress of the liver, especially since there are so many toxins in our environment. The liver is implicated especially when a person id grumpy, irritable, or angry. If you suspect the kidneys, you can expect abnormal urination patterns and fear or absentmindedness. Good results can be quite quick but the liver or kidneys take time (a few days to weeks) to become quite healthy. One of the best ways to reduce the occurrence of hives is to eliminate tobacco, alcohol, fast foods, coffee, black tea, sodas, and dairy foods. This is also a good way to prevent hives. There are a number of supplements to help avoid or prevent hives: Quercetin taken on a regular basis will strengthen mast cells and reduce allergic reactions. NAC (n-acetyl-cysteine) supports the liver and reduces mucus. B-Complex supports the adrenals and nervous system.
Vitamin C with bioflavonoid supports the cellular cleansing and allergic reactions.

Excessive Sweating Natural Remedies (Hyperdrosis)

Hand sweat, particularly of the palms is the most disturbing as it can affect ones work, especially if they use their hands frequently. Severe armpit sweating can create smells, and spots as well as salt buildup on clothing. Foot sweat can also disturb work and can cause social problems as it can be very stinky. Causes mostly from stress and nervous disorders, but may be a result of metabolic, circulatory, hormonal, cancer, or obesity disorders. Antiperspirants used for excessive sweating disturb the natural flow of sweat and get absorbed into the body. The most effective ones contain aluminum or other toxic chemicals that may eventually poison the body. These chemicals may also irritate the skin and cause rashes, hives, dermatitis, and more. Medications including anti-histamines or other drugs can cause pressure on the eyes (glaucoma) or dry up the bodily fluids in general. This can lead to dental cavities, dry mouth, etc. More severe measures for excessive sweating include surgery. Just remember the body needs the sweat glands. We just need to help them function to the normal standard. Common sense suggestions include changing clothes frequently, reducing stress, and finding the underlying causes and treating them.
From the natural perspective, excessive sweating may include issues of stress or grief. They may also include poor regulation of the kidney energy as it influences the water of the body. The Chinese also see the lungs as the skin water regulators.

Natural Hyper-Thyroid Remedies (Basedow's Disease)

Basedows Disease (sometimes called Graves disease) comes from an overactive thyroid producing too much hormone. It can be recognized by shiny eyes, later enlarged eyes, swelling of the thyroid, pulsation, falling hair, heart palpitations, tendency to diarrhea, shaking hands, damp skin, irritable voice, and unwanted weight loss from a raised metabolism. The cause is unknown, but thought to be an auto-immune problem. Conventional treatment of hyper thyroid involves medications, thyroid removal, or radiation treatment. Most options tend to be disagreeable and permanent. I have seen many people feel much worse after treatment.
Natural management of hyperthyroidism by supplements is often successful. Eat a light mostly meat free vitamin-rich diet; get physically active, emotionally calm, and avoid iodine products such as Kelp, Bladderwrack and Dulse. Eating soy products keeps iodine from being absorbed. Homeopathic medicines and cell salts help the body to normalize thyroid function.

Natural Hypo-Thyroid Support Remedies

Hypothyroid is slow developing and shows subtle outward signs. The slow destruction of the thyroid is hard to see of detect because the function is kept to normal levels as the thyroid enlarges. Finally, there is not enough tissue to produce the proper amounts of thyroxin and there comes the more obvious signs. Regeneration of some tissue is possible but may need time, patience, and temporary thyroid medication (Preferably Armor natural thyroid by prescription). Prevention is the best solution. Use iodine-rich foods from the sea or ocean and avoid fluoridated water, supplement soy products, and cruciferous vegetables such as kale, cabbage, etc. Symptoms include: forgetfulness, weight gain, PMS, menstrual changes, paleness without anemia, dry skin and hair, low blood pressure, slowed deep-tendon reflexes, cold intolerance, constipation, fatigue, apathy, swelling of tissues, low voice, hoarseness, goiter, brittle nails, stiff achy cramping muscles, weakness, hair loss, mental dullness, slow growth and development, swollen tongue, nervousness that goes into dullness, and the face looking fat with squinty eyes in menopausal women. In youth, growth in children slow and bones are affected. One may also see water retention, slow pulse, and obesity. The under or over-function of the thyroid can cause a goiter. Most often we see goiters as a lack of iodine, and a hyperthyroid condition. Hypothyroid goiters are hard. The anterior pituitary can play a part in hypothyroidism.

P a g e | 252

Causes may include:

Iodine deficiency Children - never developed enough tissue or an inherited defect, OR too much iodine during pregnancy - babies slow down Children and adults - Hashimotos or chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis (most common cause of thyroid failure) Inflammation and scarring damage Medical treatment hyperthyroid condition Temporary failure from viral infection Lithium can cause hypothyroidism X-ray therapy in neck area Dye medical treatments

Three Suggestions for Hypothyroid by Dr. Robin Murphy N.D. Low thyroid but no medications use a general thyroid remedy. One of these may be their general remedy. (Calc Carb, Sepia, Nat Mur, Lycopodium - see more remedies under Homeopathic Choices.) In this group you ignore the thyroid and give one of the above indicated remedies. It stimulates circulation, speeds up metabolism, and helps to normalize the thyroid. Low thyroid, using Synthroid in 2 grains or less a day - generally used for many years Use GENERAL REMEDY (see Homeopathic Choices) first, then build up 1-2 months (in 50-60% of people the thyroid kicks in), improvement in 1-2 months, then can be weaned off prescription slowly. Coming off COLD TURKEY from thyroid medications, people CRASH in 2 weeks or less. Sepia, Calc Carb, Nat Mur, Lycopodium, use in low potency 6c. If crashed then use acute remedy Thyroid 6X -stop general remedy or give together. Use thyroid remedies first thing in the morning. If thyroid kicks in, the person starts getting warm-blooded and restless GOOD SIGN! Thyroid is atrophied; Synthroid medications are not working any more. Use Thyroid 6X, or use Bladderwrack or Kelp. Then go to general thyroid remedies in 6c (Calc Carb, Nat Mur, Lycopodium, Sepia - see Homeopathic Choices below). In Radio-active Iodine damage, there may be a small part of the thyroid still functioning. The real cure is in the persons general (constitutional) remedy. * It is wise to get thyroid function tests every couple of months until the thyroid stabilizes at a normal level for several months. If unsure of your general remedy, consult a professional homeopath. Naturally, you can eat lots of seaweeds to provide organic iodine to waken the thyroid into producing its own hormones. Take them in capsules or powders. Add to this molasses, parsley, apricots, dates, prunes, fish, and chicken.

Hypoglycemia Natural Remedies

Hypoglycemia includes symptoms of irritability, anger, dizziness and blurred vision, depression, weakness, and sugar cravings from excess insulin production which causes blood sugar levels to drop below normal. There are 3 types of hypoglycemia but we well talk about functional hypoglycemia because the causes are fairly simple. Rarer types of hypoglycemia can stem from liver failure or tumors of the liver or pancreas. Causes of functional hypoglycemia are often poor diet choices (high in fat and sugar low in nutrients) and stress conditions. Modern medicine rarely recognizes hypoglycemia as a condition or disease as it may mimic other diseases or conditions. As a functional hypoglycemic they usually offer orange juice or sugar for reactions, but this hurts in the long term. Naturally, we want to what is causing the symptoms of hypoglycemia. First, look at a diet. If it is rich in fast foods, sugar, coffee, caffeine, alcohol and sodas, these are the main culprit. Change to a protein-rich diet and fresh whole fruits and vegetables this is to stop an overproduction of insulin. Also see insulin resistance. If the symptoms are still there after a diet correction we think of stress and fatigue from adrenal exhaustion as a common cause. A weak thyroid can also be a cause to a hypothyroid condition. Natural supplements for hypoglycemia include Chromium taken 2 times a day (GTF Chromium is most effective); B vitamins are also important to reduce stress.

Incontinence Natural Remedies

Urinary leakage from the bladder includes frequent urging with little flow. Causes in women are generally menopausal problems from lack of estrogen, chronic constipation, weakness from childbirth, or a weak pelvic floor (from sitting too much). There are more women than men suffering from this. Men suffering from this can have an enlarged prostate. Men, see Prostate Problems, BPH Natural Remedies. Other causes of incontinence include prescription drug side effects. Medical treatment for incontinence can include drugs which dry up body fluids (may cause a myriad of side effects) or act to calm bladder spasms. All drugs treat the symptoms of urinary leakage, not the cause. Naturally, we want to get to the cause of the urinary incontinence. Also, getting rid of urinary stressors such as tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea, and soda pop will go a long way to eliminating urinary problems.
Stress and nervousness is often a cause of urinary incontinence, and herbs and other natural treatments can help. Other treatments can include strengthening the prostate, for men, and addressing hormonal issues during menopause for women. Doing Kegel exercises for at least 3 months can help with pelvic floor weakness.

Indigestion Natural Remedies

See also Heartburn Remedies, Acid Reflux Natural Remedies When you don't digest food well, you will have indigestion. Symptoms of indigestion include gas, bloating, and maybe even heartburn; the food just doesn't go down well.

P a g e | 257

Indigestion is a really a symptom of stomach, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, large or small intestine imbalances. Causes are improper food choices, over eating, eating too late, or, foods eaten are too cold, too hot, or too spicy. Modern medicine treats indigestion as a bit of a mystery, regularly blaming indigestion on too much stomach acid (when other tests come up negative). To control the acid they prescribe acid blockers which contribute to osteoporosis, immune dysfunction, digestive imbalances, improper breakdown of amino acids, anemia and more. From the natural perspective indigestion is usually sluggish digestion, and, looking at a wider spectrum, may also be from holding anger in the stomach. What can't you digest in your life? Natural treatments can reverse most symptoms of indigestion to restore emotional and digestive balance. When you change your diet and use herbs, they are only needed for a few weeks to months for a chronic problem. Herbs, cell salts, or homeopathic remedies may also be valuable for an occasional indigestion quick fix. Eat smaller meals; monitor what works for you as well as not eating after 8:00 pm. It is important to remove tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea, and fast foods from your diet.
A great supplement for indigestion is DGL (Deglycerized licorice) as it acts to soothe indigestion from an inflamed or ulcerated stomach.

Inflammation Natural Remedies

Inflammation is your bodys reaction to toxicity which can appear as a sore area, heat, or some area of the body not functioning as it should; it is an immune response. You may experience pain, soreness, or discomfort; many have lower energy than normal. Modern medicine attempts to reduce inflammation by using anti-inflammatory drugs which suppress the immune response to it, and can damage the gastrointestinal tract. To naturally reduce inflammation in the body, take care of the cause whether its toxicity, or imbalance of one of your organs, or a wound.

Insomnia Natural Remedies

See also Anxiety Natural Remedies, Stress & Exhaustion, and Sleep Apnea. Good sleep is essential for good health, mentally, physically and emotionally. Insomnia is the inability to fall asleep within an hour of going to bed, or it is awakening one or more times during the night; both include not getting back to sleep. Symptoms include sleeplessness, wakefulness, tiredness in the morning, snoring.

P a g e | 260

Insomnia is found in those over the age of sixty more than others, affecting 40% of women and 25% of men. Causes include shift work, emotional and physical stresses, alcohol, diet (the foods you eat), eating too much, drinking fluids or taking stimulants too close to bed time, medication side effects, restless-leg syndrome, toxicity of the body, and even pollution. Modern medicine uses drugs to treat insomnia; they knock you out and are often addictive to some degree or another. Worse than this, the sleep is artificial and may affect your health eventually. Naturally we are meant to sleep up to eight hours nightly; everyone is different in the sleep they need. It is healthy to wake up at the same time every morning, and to go to bed at a reasonable time. One must condition the mind to sleep well. The bedroom is for sleep and sex only. Watch television, read, and do other things in other rooms. Avoid shift work as your body cant sleep when it should at night. Sleeplessness is a sign of inner restlessness: time to do some inner cleansing. Other signs may include: emotion conflict, nerve weakness from worry, bad dreams, feverish diseases, stomach disturbances, fear of death, or high cholesterol. Many people get used to sleeplessness. The causation of physical factors can be the colon, bladder, fever, or cough. To help insomnia, take care of the cause. Take gentle walks, or use clay packs on the calves. Bathe in a lukewarm bath (a few drops of essential oils added). Magnesium, taken several times a day (up to loose stools) relaxes the muscles when there id physical muscle cramps, or restless legs or tight muscles. Before retiring to bed

Keep water, or other fluid intake, to a minimum about four hours before bed. The same thing goes for caffeine, coffee, and black tea. Alcohol can make you drowsy and depresses the central nervous system, but causes restless sleep. Eat heavy meals at least two to three hours before bed. Electric blankets disturb the bodys electrical system and are harmful to the immune system. Stay quiet and try not to pick fights with family members, or others, before bedtime.

Sleep Apnea Natural Remedies

See also Insomnia Natural Remedies Sleep Apnea is where breathing stops for short periods during the night, which may terrify a significant other. With sleep apnea there is a lack of oxygen during the night which leaves you feeling exhausted all day. Additional symptoms include snoring, difficult concentrating and memory problems often connected with high blood pressure, obesity, poor diet and poor circulation. Medical treatment usually entails using an oxygen machine with a mask. There are problems with compliance as the masks can be very uncomfortable. The oxygen machine and mask do not address the underlying causes. From a natural perspective, sleep apnea is a fundamental breakdown of the whole body system, especially the circulatory and respiratory systems. Obesity is a common contributor that stressed both the circulatory and respiratory systems. If you are obese, start doing what it takes lose weight, and start a physical conditioning program. See 5 Keys to Successful Weight Loss.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) Natural Remedies

Irritable bowel is a disorder which causes discomfort and distress to the intestines. Symptoms are characterized most commonly by cramping, abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, and diarrhea. Some may have constipation while others may have diarrhea, or a combination of both in alternation. Other symptoms include bloating and gas, mucus in the stool, and urging after having a bowel movement. As many as 20 percent of the adults have symptoms of IBS, making it one of the most common disorders diagnosed by doctors. It occurs more often in women than in men, and it begins before the age of 35 in about 50 percent of people. IBS, for most people, can come from poor diet containing fast foods, dairy, tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea, and soda. These things also cause the death of the friendly bacteria in the intestines. Other causes may be due to dietary allergies, or food sensitivities. Stress may play a part in the cause. Modern medicine treats IBS with diet changes, fiber supplements, anti-diarrheal medications, anticholinergic medications (nervous system), anti-depression medications, and counseling. Medication specific to IBS is Alosetron (Lotronex) which is supposed to relax the colon only approved for women. These medications only treat the symptoms and create dependency.

Natural Kidney Stone Remedies

Kidney stones are hard mineral deposits which may get stuck or pass with pain from the kidneys or one of the ureters. Many people dont know that they have kidney stones unless there is a specific problem or during a routine doctors exam. 90% of kidney stones pass spontaneously; 10% need surgery. Symptoms of kidney stones include sudden intermittent pains that may cause radiating pains into kidney, pelvic, testes, legs or abdomen. There is over 50% reoccurrence statistically. Common causes of kidney stones include a diet rich in animal proteins, coffee, black tea, hard water or fast foods. Other less common or serious diseases contributing to

P a g e | 265

kidney stones include sick parathyroid glands (they regulate calcium), infections, or even structural effects. We will mostly deal with the common stones. Modern medicine uses pain killers, diuretics and even lithotripsy to blast kidney stones. Lithotripsy has problems with damage to tissues; surgery has its dangers too. Prevention may include the following: Eating a vegetarian diet as well as drinking water or citrus juices at 2 quarts a day. Avoid tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black or green tea, as well as sodas. Statistically, vegetarians fare best.

Leaky Gut Natural Remedies

Leaky gut is a syndrome where digestive matter moves through the intestinal wall into the abdominal cavity. This provokes an auto-immune response; it may be totally separate, or connected with food allergies (related to Celiacs disease) such as allergies to grains, gluten, or dairy products. Causes of leaky gut can be food intolerances and made worse, or be caused by antibiotics, regular use of NSAIDS (non-prescription pain relievers), and steroid use. It can cause or increase other auto immune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. Leaky gut is not recognized by modern medicine and most likely caused or aggravated by antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDS), steroids and antibiotics. They dont seem to see a connection with leaky gut syndrome and arthritic, digestive, and auto-immune disorders. Natural perspective on leaky gut is to eliminate food allergens and to attempt to eliminate all pain relievers (aspirin may be the worst), antibiotics, and steroids. Then you must use several of the following natural therapies for leaky gut to repair the gut. You can always use other natural treatments for auto immune diseases and symptoms. Gut repair can be effective in 2 to 4 weeks.
Diet for Leaky Gut

It is important to eliminate allergic foods for 30 to 40 days to determine their effects. Obvious dietary concerns are to eliminate tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea, and refined foods.

Leg and Feet Swelling Natural Remedies

Leg and feet swelling, or edema, is an accumulation of liquid in the tissues between the cell spaces and may be annoying at first, but progress to a severe or debilitating problem. Signs include swelling or pitting of the skin where a finger indentation may last for a few seconds to minutes or longer. In most cases swelling of the legs is caused by (#1) a weakness of the kidneys; (#2) lymphatic congestion; (#3) heart valve weakness; or (#4) liver problems. Then there are rarer symptoms of asites, cancer, pulmonary edema, congestive heart failure, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, or kidney failure, etc. More seriously, swelling of one particular leg, right or left, is important as well as leg swelling during morning or night. If the legs or feet are warm or cold, this also has significance. Swelling from vein enlargement is mostly one sided, pressure and pain sensitive and difficult to press. It is a circulatory problem and may be connected to hemorrhoids or varicose veins. Natural therapies may be very effective. Be sure to know the underlying problem. Medical treatment for simple cases of leg and feet swelling (edema) include the use of diuretics and possibly potassium. While somewhat effective, they may produce dependence, cover other symptoms, damage the kidneys, or have other side effects and toxicity. It is important to have the cause of leg and feet swelling diagnosed to rule out serious problems. Naturally, we look for simple solutions first to leg and feet swelling, such as dehydration (not drinking enough water), side effects from medications you are taking, or not getting enough protein. It may also be due to constipation (not having at least one bowel movement a day).

P a g e | 268

For leg and feet swelling (edema) classification one must recognize the following criteria: Kidneys: leg and feet swelling where the skin is warm and is already there in the mornings. Signs are seen in the face also swollen eyelids and puffiness of the back of the hands. It is mostly right sided. Lymphatic congestion: first rule out the other causes. Swelling of feet and legs are at a normal temperature, not hot or cold, and could be either leg. We also see glands swelling in the groin, arms or head. Heart problems: limbs are cold, and the swelling begins in the joint areas, goes to the feet and is mostly left sided. Liver edema, also known as ASITES: before the leg and feet swelling begin the abdomen is enlarged, a water swelling, the navel is stretched where it is only seen as flattened spot. In opposition to the swollen abdomen the rest of the extremities look thin. With this process we often see a colon disturbance. Before the abdominal water swelling, we see and abdominal expansion swelling. It is often combined with constipation. Diet for leg swelling: stop smoking, alcohol, caffeine, coffee, black tea, sodas, and processed foods. Supplements to help with leg swelling (edema) include: Coenzyme Q10 100 mg a day for heart care and protection.
Vitamin B6 is a mild natural diuretic when used at 50mg twice daily.

Leukemia is seen as a type of cancer. Symptoms of leukemia include an enlarged spleen, enlarged lymph nodes, bleeding gums, exhaustion, ulcers, sores or pneumonia. Generally, leukemia can be caused by heredity, exposure to radiation, chemical toxins, Downs syndrome, or even identical twins; chronic forms have unknown causes. Leukemia can be an acute problem (sudden in children 2 5 years old) or chronic in older persons when it involves the lymph glands; it is more prominent in men over 50 years old. Modern medicine uses chemotherapy over a period of time; it may return. The treatments are toxic, have side effects and only suppress the disease.

COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) Natural Remedies

Chronic breathing problems from bronchitis or emphysema are a very common problem. Symptoms of COPD include coughing, respiratory infections or shortness of breath with or without mucus or wheezing. Cause can be from second hand smoke, chronic smoking or weakness of the respiratory organs. Medical treatment for COPD includes inhalers, steroids, or anti-inflammatory drugs. All these can have medium to severe risks and dont get to the cause of lung weakness. From the natural perspective the first thing to do is avoid smoke or smoking as well as polluted environments. COPD can also be caused from poor diet which causes excess mucus in the body. Eating for your constitution or body type will help reduce mucus, i.e. if you are a cold person you shouldnt eat all raw food because it only makes you colder. See other remedies for lung issues

Pleurisy Natural Remedies

With pleurisy the lining of the lungs inflame and cause severe pain upon movement. It feels like someone is standing on your chest and is hard to breathe. Dry pleurisy is the sensation of severe stabbing pain each breath and is usually accompanied with dry irritating cough or a slight fever. Wet pleurisy is the buildup of fluid in the lining (pleural effusion). It appears gradually with uneasiness, feeling dull, appetite loss and may also come on suddenly with chills, fever, sticking pains and pressure in the chest, difficulty breathing and a persistent dry cough. This type of wet pleurisy may be a chronic problem only recognized after years of suffering. Causes of both wet and dry pleurisy are most commonly a chest cold or after a more severe disease such as asthma or pneumonia. Pleurisy can be caused by lung infections, and more rarely by lung abscesses, tuberculosis, lung cancer, lupus or rheumatoid arthritis. Modern medicine diagnoses the underlying cause to treat pleurisy with the appropriate medication, which are antibiotics for bacterial infections or pneumonia. The underlying weaknesses causing pleurisy, however, are not addressed but the symptoms treated. Naturally, we also look for the underlying causes and sometimes rely on the modern medicine to rule out tuberculosis, cancer, etc. Pleurisy is easily treated naturally as herbs, homeopathic remedies and cell salts are very effective and have fast results. Just use the appropriate homeopathic remedy for the dry pleurisy or wet pleurisy. A good natural supplement to help with pleurisy is CoQ10 (300 mg a day) for lung and muscle integrity.

Lupus (SLE) Natural Remedies

Lupus (Systemic Lupus Erythematosis) is a serious autoimmune disease that affects the bodys connective tissues. It occurs when the body produces abnormal antibodies that attack normal body tissue as if it were a foreign invader; a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disorder that may affect many organ systems. The disease affects 9 times as many women as men. It may occur at any age, but appears in most people between 10 and 50 years old. (Approximately 1 in 700 women are affected.) Symptoms of lupus vary widely with the individual and are characterized by remissions and exacerbations. At the onset of lupus only one organ system may be involved; additional organs may become involved later. The course of the lupus may vary from mild episodic to fatal illnesses. The following organ system manifestations may be seen, but other manifestations are possible: Musculoskeletal. Almost all people with SLE have joint pain and most develop arthritis. Frequently affected joints are the fingers, hands, wrists, and knees. Death of bone tissue can occur in hips and shoulders and is frequently a cause of pain in those areas.

P a g e | 279

Skin. A malar butterfly rash over the cheeks and bridge of the nose affects about half of those with SLE. The rash is usually worsened by sunlight. A more diffuse rash may appear on other body parts exposed to the sun. Other skin lesions or nodules can occur. Other symptoms include: fever, general discomfort, uneasiness or ill feeling (malaise), skin rash, malar butterfly rash, sunlight aggravates skin rash, joint pain and swelling, sensitivity to sunlight, pleuritic chest pain, seizures, psychosis, fatigue. Causes of lupus: elevated estrogen levels may increase the risk of SLE; excessive stomach acid; aspartame is suspected; leaky gut syndrome may be a cause due to over-the-counter pain medications (chronic use). Lupus may cause these ailments: chilblains (rarely) as a side effect; hypertension (via the impaired kidney function caused by nephritis; Pericarditis; Raynauds disease; edema (due to nephritis); nephritis; fever; joint inflammation; muscle weakness; numbness. Types of Lupus Erythematosus Discoid Lupus (DLE) is a skin ailment characterized by red lesions that form on the face and scalp; Systemic Lupus (SLE) damages the kidneys, heart, liver, lungs, nervous system, joints and skin; Drug-Induced Lupus is characterized by lupus-like symptoms triggered by various pharmaceutical drugsHydralazine (high blood pressure meds), some heart medications, epileptic, tuberculosis, rheumatoid arthritis medications. Medical perspective will diagnose the problem by looking or the facial rash, take a blood test and may recommend over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDS) that can cause their own damage without resolving the lupus. They may also recommend prednisone or other immunosuppressive drugs that may also carry dangerous toxicity or side effects. Natural perspective includes diet, stress relief and other following natural treatments. The lupus sufferer may need to use natural therapies for flare-ups, specific organ or joint weaknesses, and homeopathic constitutional treatment. For diet, remove toxic substances such as tobacco, alcohol, black tea, coffee, sodas and reduce processed foods. Prognosis for Lupus The outcome has improved over previous years for people with SLE. Many affected have mild illness. Women with SLE who become pregnant are often able to complete pregnancy safely and deliver normal infants if severe renal or heart disease is not present, and the SLE is under treatment. The 10-year survival rate exceeds 85%. People with severe involvement of the brain, lungs, heart, and kidney have the worst prognosis in terms of overall survival and disability. The following natural supplements may alleviate Lupus symptoms: Magnesium levels are often abnormally low in lupus patients. Use as much magnesium as possible until you get diarrhea and then back off the dosage.

Natural Remedies to Help Lyme Disease

Lyme disease comes from tick bites. Symptoms include a circular rash within 30 days of the tick bite which can reach up to 12 inches across. Symptoms may be like the flu with aches, fever, chills and headaches, with possible swollen lymph nodes. The second phase can have loss of facial muscle tone (sagging), stiff neck, and shifting symptoms (moving from part to part). The third stage is chronic arthritic-like condition of the large joints, especially the knees. Modern medicine can effectively treat the initial bacterial assault (first stage) with antibiotics. The next stages, however, there are no effective medical treatments. Other ineffective treatments may include steroids which are suppressive and toxic. The natural perspective of Lyme's is first diagnosing that it is really what you think. After the initial bacterial assault with its damage, the body is compromised and the immune system must be reset. This is done with systemic herbs, a cell salt solution and an appropriate homeopathic. The stage three effects are no longer a bacterial problem, therefore antibiotics wont help.

Melasma Natural Remedies

Melasma is also called cholasma which is a hyper-pigmentation, usually on the face. It is sometimes called the pregnancy mask. Melasma is mostly seen in women. It is a brown discoloration of the skin. Causes of melasma can come from a genetic tendency. During pregnancy it can appear and go away after giving birth. It may also be caused from estrogen-based birth control. Modern medicine considers melasma a cosmetic problem and treats the condition with toxic chemicals or lasers. It does not address underlying causes. Natural remedies for melasma include two perspectives; 1) Chinese medicine considers brown spots of the skin as a liver issue, 2) Hormone imbalances are causing melasma because of the weak liver function. The liver and hormones in women need to be addressed and for normal function to return. When the liver functions better the melasma fades away. It usually takes several months for melasma relief as it takes time for removal of liver stressors. Liver stressors include chemical birth control (talk to your partner about some non-chemical birth control); medications stress the liver to some degree or another (statin drugs for cholesterol are particularly problematic); the diet needs to be free of tobacco, less than 2 alcoholic drinks a week, no soda pop, coffee or black tea.

Mononucleosis Natural Remedies

Mononucleosis is a viral infection that comes on quickly with swollen glands in the neck, high temperature. It comes from the cytomegalovirus or Epstein Barr virus. Symptoms include fatigue, exhaustion, sore throat and swollen glands of the neck. It can have symptoms of enlarged tonsils as well as rashes in about 20% of sufferers. Most people who experience mono are 10 to 40 years old, and most are women. Symptoms typically last several weeks to months and may develop into chronic fatigue symptoms. Mono is transmitted through saliva and is thus the kissing disease. It is a weakness of the immune and lymphatic systems as a result of stress. From the medical viewpoint, they leave mononucleosis alone as there is no pharmaceutical treatment. Their strength is the diagnosis. The natural solution for mono is rather simple as I learned from my teacher Dr. Robin Murphy. He claimed that mono symptoms may go away in as little as two days using herbs and homeopathic remedies. I was skeptical, but the experience with my clients showed me it is possible in 2 to 7 days with most of the persons strength recovered. It is just a weakness of lymphatic and immune function from stress and poor diet.

Natural Perspective Ayurvedic tradition says that tremors are a Vata disturbance of the muscles. It is the nerves of the muscle that need help. Chinese medicine says the liver controls the sinews and muscles and most tremors are caused by liver problems. This includes toxicity from medicines or alcohol which affect the liver. Another cause is often nerve or stress conditions to which natural therapies for tremors are particularly helpful.

Nutrition for tremors includes: Magnesium citrate to relax the muscles. Alpha lipoic acid to increase anti-oxidant power Vitamin B-complex to reduce the consequences of stress.
Lifestyle Slow down if anxious our stressed. Whats the hurry? Smell the roses. If a relationship is making things worse seek counseling. If work is stressing you, re-examine your priorities. Change your lifestyle before the universe (circumstances) changes it for you.

Natural Nightmare Remedies

Nightmares are bad dreams that bother, upset, or frighten an individual, which wakens them during the night or during sleep. Some people can remember their dream and some dont. Children can experience them as night terrors which causes them to scream out, need a nightlight or even cause them to jump into bed with a sibling or parents. Causes are largely unknown in the medical field, and sedating medication may be the only tool, along with the side effects. From the natural viewpoint nightmares are the result of stress and nervous disorders. Treat the nervous system during the day with nervines or other natural therapies and nightmares will diminish. For added nutrition include magnesium to relax muscles and reduce nerve tension. Use Bcomplex vitamins in double amounts as recommended on the package for several weeks or longer if in a stressful life situation.

OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) Natural Remedies

OCD is an emotional condition where certain thoughts star for several hours to months and a person cant get rid of the thoughts, feeling compelled to act on ideas. The causes may come from emotional trauma triggered recently or from the past. This is a persons particular defense mechanism for stress. Modern medicine treats OCD with drugs that must be used for a lifetime (they create dependency) because they only work to relieve symptoms. They are often used in conjunction with various psychological therapies. Medications will have side effects which leads the sufferer to stop taking them. Results vary.

P a g e | 291

From the natural perspective, we can control symptoms to some degree with herbs. I have found success using homeopathics when under constitutional care. I would use a combination of natural therapies with guidance form a counselor or other qualified health practitioners. Only alter medications under medical supervision. Also change your diet to eliminate alcohol, tobacco, coffee, black tea and sodas. Take advice and observations of your partner and friends to gauge the extent of behaviors.

Oily Skin Natural Remedies

This is where a person complains of excess oils of the skin. They have fewer wrinkles and look younger for longer, but I guess it depends on your perspective, and if the oils are causing too much trouble. If you are noticing clothing staining, it might be a problem. Causes of oily skin are unknown and there may be a genetic component. The good old American junk food fast food diet may also be a contributor. Modern medication creams are a temporary fix for oily skin and the ultimate cause is not addressed. From the natural perspective oily skin comes from a dietary imbalance, especially fast foods, tobacco, excess alcohol (more than 2 drinks a week), soda pop, and fast foods.

Topical treatments with natural cleansers help oily skin temporarily and beat chemical based popular treatments. Constipation may be a factor as toxins may be recycled.

Natural Remedies for Pain

Pain is the bodys response to an injury, energy blockage, or damage. It is the sign that your body is working to heal the problem.

P a g e | 294

Modern medicine treats pain by using medications that block receptors to the brain so you dont feel it. This often slows the healing process and causes side effects such as addictions to pain medications, gastro-intestinal problems, constipation and more. There are many different ways in which pain is manifested. The natural way is to simply deal with whats causing the pain, thus removing the energy blockage. Homeopathics, herbs, and cell salts do well for specific types of pain.

Parkinson's Disease Natural Remedies

Parkinsons is a degenerative disease of an area of the brain that produces dopamine. Dopamine has to do with muscular control. It affects most of its victims after the age of 55 and affects men more than women. Symptoms of Parkinson's include loss of muscular and motor control. First symptoms may be facial twitching and then loss of muscular control, clumsiness, awkward movements, shuffling, shaking, high pitched voice, and loss of reasoning. Cant write, or even feed themselves. Mostly the cause is unknown. Many theories abound; lymphatic congestion, protein toxicity, low cholesterol or deficient hormones, especially testosterone or other endocrine degeneration. Modern medicine uses dopamine medications that treat symptoms, which may bring side effects such as hallucinations, poor response, muscular fluctuations and involuntary muscle movement.

P a g e | 299

The natural perspective of Parkinsons comes from a complex set poor health of body systems, neurological (nerve) problems that affect nerve function, lymphatic system, and toxicity of the body. The endocrine system may be compromised. Success may be small improvements, slowing or stopping the progression. Great improvements can be seen in early stages. What you can do naturally is to eat a diet of fresh fruits and vegetables. Eliminate tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea, pork, and dairy products. Research has shown Coenzyme Q10 at 1200 mg a day has improved many symptoms.

Phlebitis Natural Remedies

Phlebitis can be a superficial inflammation of the veins of mostly the legs but can also be found in the pelvis area. Most people dont know they have this problem until there is redness or swelling. It can be the result of an infection locally or somewhere else in the body. Deep vein thrombosis is phlebitis of the deep veins that causes blood clots. This can cause pain, swelling, fevers or chills. Early signs can be a brown staining of the skin on the lower legs. Unchecked the clots can cause a stroke or even death. Causes of phlebitis can come from smoking, a physical injury, birth control pills or other unknown factors. Medical treatments are to reduce inflammation in superficial phlebitis with NSAIDS (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs). Deep vein thrombosis may be treated with heparin-like drugs, aspirin, or Warfarin. They may be life saving over the short term, but only treats the

P a g e | 302

symptoms and may have toxicity and side effects associated. Diagnosis is important to rule out other problems and avoid blood clots. Natural perspectives include supporting normal vein health for prevention. We use supplements, cell salts, homeopathics and herbs as well as improve diet. The most important dietary concern for phlebitis is to stop smoking as well as removing alcohol, coffee, black tea. Regular moderate exercise is important for superficial phlebitis. Check with your doctor for deep vein thrombosis. Supplements valuable to help phlebitis: Vitamin C with Bioflavonoids (Amla C) Vitamin E is a blood thinner Zinc (50 mg per day) strengthens blood veins 1 to 2 Tablespoons of Flax fiber

Natural Remedies to Help Prostate Problems, BPH

If you are urinating too frequently, feel pressure or burning in that area, or your sex life is being affected, you may have prostate problems, or BPH (benign prostate hyperplasia, found usually in older men when the prostate enlarges). Symptoms include changes in urination, split urinary stream, weak stream, intermittent urination, dribbling of urine, bashful bladder, incomplete emptying, frequent nightly urination, or urinary incontinence. Any pain associated can be within the prostate, localized or radiate to the pelvis, above the pubic bone, in the perineum, or in the upper thighs. There can be fever and chills, urging to urinate, as well as frequent and painful urination. Possible signs in the face include swollen lower eyelids that are rosy red colored (generally in elderly men), chin is prominent or cleft, or thick lower lip. This may also involve male hormone problems. Other signs may include receding, thinning hair, deficient hair growth in beard or too much hair growth on entrance of ear canal. See a doctor if you have any of the following symptoms:

Inability to empty the bladder Blood in the urine Frequent urinary tract infections Bladder stones

Urinary retention can permanently damage the bladder. Modern medicine uses drugs that shrink the prostate, or reduce the aforementioned symptoms. There can be side effects from these drugs that cause other health problems (some causing impotence) besides having to take them for the rest of your life. Surgery is another medical option. Natural ways to prevent or help prostate problems are: First clean up your diet, removing alcohol, black tea, coffee and tobacco. Second, change a sedentary lifestyle by exercising. Third, use the following healing protocol. Many people ask me what I would do if I got prostate cancer. If it was a slow-growing type, I would follow the advice of several prominent cancer doctors who suggest just leaving it alone. In their experience, they say that most men can survive 10 to 20 years without further problems and

P a g e | 304

avoid the risk of surgical treatments and side effects from medications that can cause impotence and other urinary problems. Of course, I would be monitored regularly by a doctor. Im not one to rush into a big decision. I would, however, go on a vegan diet. Animal products are high in fat and may contain steroids and hormones (foreign estrogens and more) that adversely affect anyones health. --- Dave

Natural Psoriasis Remedies

Psoriasis symptoms include excessive growth of skin in patches anywhere on the body, most often found in folds of skin at the elbows knees or other joints. It can be very unsightly. Arthritis may be connected. Causes are unknown, but I suspect it is due to a poor immune response, and from stress. Modern medicine treats psoriasis with steroid medications or petroleum creams which are suppressive and can be dangerous. Severe cases of psoriasis have used chemotherapeutic medicines that are toxic and carry dangerous side effects. From the natural perspective, psoriasis is the bodys response to stress and immune function problems, showing up in people who have skin weakness. There is also a possibility to move forward with accompanying arthritis, for some people. It is also a condition of blood toxicity. What you can do naturally is to start with your diet by removing tobacco, alcohol, coffee, sodas, and fast food. Always exercise (move) moderately.

They get depressed, lethargic, have memory and concentration problems, become unmotivated, and have a low libido. These symptoms are all signs of Seasonal Affective Disorder, or SAD.

Natural Shingles Relief Remedies

Shingles comes from a viral disease in the chicken pox family, also called herpes zoster. It affects the nerves and follows nerve pathways commonly in the abdominal or face areas. Sores can be painful and may blister and pop. Later the nerve pains may persist. It is proposed that shingles may be brought on by stress. Shingles are commonly found in older people, which suggests that there may be nutritional deficiencies. Modern medicine treats it using anti-viral medications which may take up to several days for relief, and remember, all drugs have some kind of side effects. From the natural perspective, we see it as nerve stress from immune weakness. It is usually easy to deal with using natural things. First, reduce your stress, and remember to stay away from tobacco, alcohol, coffee and soda pop. Topically, you can use Dr. Christophers Cayenne Ointment. It may seem hot, but stops the pain. Lysine cream helps in getting rid of the virus and soothes the skin. See also Skin Rashes, Anxiety Natural Remedies

Sinusitis Natural Remedies

Sinusitis is an inflammation or infection of the sinus cavities. It can be acute, when the infection lasts less than two weeks at a time. Acute sinusitis is more painful. Chronic sinusitis is less painful but lasting more than two weeks. Causes of sinusitis can come from pollution, dust, allergies, swollen adenoids, damp weather, and teeth problems. It can also be a suppression of vaginal discharges. When a woman has vaginal discharge and uses antibiotics, the problem is suppressed and can be expressed through sinusitis. Using antibiotics can suppress problems in another part of the body and later show up as sinus problems. Modern medicine treats sinusitis with antibiotics, which have side effects. They also use pain relievers, sinus sprays and surgery for some symptomatic relief. It does not cure the root of the problem. From the natural perspective, this inflammation or infection of the sinuses comes from a weak immune system. Strengthening the immune system is closer to addressing the root cause.

Skin Rashes Natural Remedies

Skin rashes are raised skin bumps that may or may not appear red. They medical field claims it is caused by allergies to chemicals, but there are unknown causes. If you see a doctor, a skin rash may be treated with steroids or steroidal creams that may be suppressive (pushing the problem into the body deeper) and toxic. The rashes will go away by themselves or will be suppressed into some other disease, especially of the lungs. It often turns to asthma. Sometimes it may go into the joints. From the natural perspective, skin problems are usually a sign of kidney or liver weakness. Liver weakness can be detected when a person shows anger or irritability while kidney weakness shows up as fear or forgetfulness. Take care of the weak organs and the rash goes away. Liver signs can also bring on headaches behind the eyes.

Skin Rash Homeopathic RemediesSkin Tags Natural Remedies

Skin tags, also called acrochordon, are abnormal skin growths that usually occur on the neck or face, but may be found around the armpits, groin or even eyelids. They are considered benign (non cancerous) tumors. Women are found to have skin tags more often then men. Causes can com from skin rubbing (medical perspective) or even PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome). Some other research suggests insulin resistance (syndrome X). Other natural practitioners consider skin tags may come from allergy shots. Modern medicine treats skin tags by just removing them. From a natural perspective, skin tags are a sign of something deeper so look for the root cause and help the body to fix itself. If it is insulin resistance issue, and there is a big belly, steps need to be taken to reduce stress and improve the diet (described later). Use chromium for better metabolism. PCOS is a hormonal issue that can create skin tags. See PCOS healing protocol. Allergy shots and other vaccinations in general are thought to alter our immune system and cause tumors, benign and cancerous. See also Allergy healing protocols. Diet no smoking, less than 2 alcoholic beverages a week, 1 cup or less of coffee or black tea a day. Use lest than 2 sodas a week. Eat no fast food eat real food. From a homeopathic perspective, skin tags manifest the sycotic miasm. Miasms are genetically inherited or grafted disease states. The sycotic miasm is a deeper health imbalance that causes alteration of tissues, usually benign. Skin tags are a sign of worsening state of health.

Skin Wrinkles Natural Remedies

Wrinkles are the skin forming creases and folds. They make a person look older; many people spend a lot of money to remedy this. The main cause of skin wrinkles is age and sun exposure. Some believe skin wrinkles involve diet, lifestyle or even genetics; I think it involves them all. Millions of dollars are spent every year in this country on wrinkle creams. More money is probably spent on expensive plastic surgery which can be problematic and need to be done again. Skin wrinkles are a natural progression of aging. They can also be symptoms of stress, dehydration, and toxicity issues or the result of hormonal changes at menopause. Diet plays a factor in skin wrinkles; risks include using tobacco, alcohol, sodas, excess coffee, black tea, processed foods too as they interfere with connective tissue health. Nutrition for skin is important. Use the following oils as they help moisturize skin: Evening primrose oil is good for skin and female health (can soften cervix). 500 to 1,000 mg a day. Flax oil is skin and cardio protective at 4,000 mg a day, not as anti-inflammatory as fish oil Omega 3 fish oils is my favorite at 6,000 mg a day of whole salmon oil (from a health food store, not big stores); a must for cardiovascular health.

Vitiligo Natural Remedies

Vitiligo is a skin condition of depigmentation (no pigment) where the melanin is either damaged or destroyed. It is most often seen on the hands. The condition of vitiligo is more evident in people of darker skin because there is more of a contrast. Its also more evident when one is sun tanned. Vitiligo happens in about 1% of the population. Causes of vitiligo are unknown but theories include autoimmune disorders and genetic causes. Medical treatments include transplanting pigments, destroying pigment to match, and steroid crmes; none of these address the cause and may be toxic. There may also be skin paint available for those with vitiligo. Naturally, with vitiligo (skin problems) we look at a liver weakness. It is best to use several natural solutions and it takes 4 to 12 months for great improvement. I have seen about a 50% success rate.

Snoring is an unacceptable noise when a person is lying down sleeping and occurs most frequently when lying on the back. When the soft palate in the throat closes down, it causes a vibration and the snoring noise. The tissue is too soft; this is one of many theories. Modern medicine tries to stop snoring with surgery, but is not always successful. From the natural perspective, snoring is caused by weak connective tissue that can be helped by natural therapies. Snoring may come from excess mucus, allergies and other factors such as weight problems. Poor digestion may also contribute to snoring. Thus, eliminate tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea, soda and dairy products.

Spotting Natural Remedies

Spotting happens when small amounts of blood escape the vagina between menstrual periods for women between. It is fairly common for girls starting their periods or women going into menopause in their mid-to-late forties. The cause of spotting is a drop in estrogen levels at the time of ovulation; this is the most common cause that we will be working with here. Other causes need to be treated differently and seen by your healthcare professional if the following ideas dont work. Other causes may include chemical birth control such as the pill, IUD, or other medication. It can also be pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) as well as endometriosis; watch for ectopic pregnancies or inflammation of the cervix, etc.

P a g e | 319

Medical treatment of spotting varies greatly, but most often the pill is used to control the period (side effects); this does not solve the problem. From the natural perspective the goal is to normalize the menstrual period. Make sure you clean up your diet and remember to remove tobacco, alcohol, coffee, black tea and soda.

Natural Stomach Ulcer Remedies

Our stomach and digestive system is lined with brain-type cells. People that get stomach ulcers are often stressed and hold their anger, stress, and frustration in their gut, suggesting that ulcers are affected by our thoughts. Stomach ulcers frequently cause pain shortly (15-60 minutes) after eating. The pain is generally in the liver-gallbladder region (lower right abdomen). Ulcers are noticed mostly in the fall and springtime.

P a g e | 320

Ulcer symptoms start with bouts of indigestion. It may begin with discomfort in the upper right side of the abdomen and may radiate through a spot in the back. Pains can also be felt in the fingertips. Be aware of low stomach acid conditions which are seen as discomfort right after meals. It is a precursor for stomach ulcers. Excess acid conditions are when there is digestive discomfort 2-3 hours after meals. This sets up the conditions for duodenal ulcers. Duodenal ulcers (below the stomach) often have pain that radiates to the tip of the lower right shoulder blade, which is also a sign of gall bladder problems. These pains are experienced morning and night, subside with eating, and resume 2-3 hours after meals. The medical field uses acid reducers for ulcers. While reducing symptoms, these medications hamper the immune system, contribute to osteoporosis, anemia and poor protein assimilation, and create other side effects. It has been observed that female hormones protect against ulcers. They are rarely seen in women 20 to 45 years old. Another cause is tobacco, which is the number one cause of stomach cancer. Natural solutions include reducing stress. Some people need counseling or a change in job or a relationship. Using nutritional supplements such as Aloe Vera Juice soothes mucus membranes of the entire digestive tract. Olive oil a few drops ingested at a time may soothe stomach pain. Scrape ashes from one burned toast into a glass of water, several times a day, or use charcoal powder in caps.

drained away with creative endeavors without perfectionism and competition. Aerobic exercise also releases stress, especially when done consistently. Causes of Stress: logical thinking without another outlet - people that think too much. Medieval authors wrote that thinking too much caused melancholy (depression); Stress often comes from office jobs when a person does not have another creative outlet. Results of Stress: Affects your self-esteem; takes the fun out of life, makes you too serious; and the following health problems may possibly emerge:
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Heart disease Heart attack Stroke High blood pressure Chronic fatigue Ulcers Colitis Diverticulitis Insomnia

Organs affected by stress:

Endocrine bodily and organ functions Central nervous system stress reactions Hypothalamus brain and body controller Limbic system emotional center of the brain Pituitary controls growth Adrenals energy Pancreas digestive and insulin Liver - detoxification

Becoming numb to problems can also make them worse as there is little incentive for counseling or other therapies. Modern medicine puts a band aid on symptoms so that a person can get on with life. Who needs to actually resolve their problems any way? Doctors prescribe benzodiazepines for anxiety or anti-depressants. The problem is that many people become numb emotionally, lose their sex drive, and some even become suicidal or homicidal. Then there are the issues of dependency, toxicity and other side effects of the medications. One natural perspective for stress is replacing pent up emotions with loving, creative, noncompetitive releases. Do the basics, like choosing a moderate lifestyle where work and play are in balance. It is also sleeping eight hours a night, and enjoying your work and family. It also includes a diet rich in vitamins, nutrients and anti-oxidants. Avoid tobacco, alcoholic, coffee, black tea, soda, and fast food.

Medical perspective is to moderate the lifestyle but may include antidepressants that can calm stress (but they have side effects and reduce the quality of life). They may also use other drugs to regulate blood pressure (more side effects and toxicity). They will likely prescribe statin drugs to reduce cholesterol but that has side effects of its own. Natural perspective is that there is an imbalance in the body. It is an opportunity to look in the mirror and take stock of your life and make some changes so you dont end up dead, or worse in a nursing home or on disability. The following are ideas to help you find health and peace in your life. Why not feel good mentally, physically and emotionally? Find a way to laugh and love life. Walk at least 10 minutes a day. For serious stroke prevention, change your diet now to eliminate tobacco, alcohol, coffee, soda, and fast foods. That will help 80% of the there. Remember to eat three meals a day with protein. Incorporate more fruits and vegetables. Natural supplements, the 2 must-haves are: Garlic (Kyolic brand is really odorless). 2 capsules twice a day for help with blood pressure and cholesterol. It may be that simple.

TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint Disorder) Natural Remedies

With TMJ, the jaws crack and pop easily with yawning and chewing. It can move out of joint and be very painful. Causes may include chronic clenching of the jaws, and stress. Modern medicine treats it with mouth guards, surgery, pain relievers of muscle relaxants. Most of these, at best, are symptomatic relief, along with side effects from medications. From a natural perspective, TMJ is a condition of chronic stress where a person holds stress in the jaw area, which, over time damages the joint. Reduce your stress and help symptoms with natural anti-inflammatory supplements for symptomatic relief.

Natural Uterine Prolapse Support

Prolapse of the uterus is when the uterus falls from poor connective tissue (tendons, sinews, etc) health. Sometimes it slips so far down that it reaches into the vagina, and may be seen coming out the body. There are natural alternatives to a hysterectomy. From the natural perspective uterine prolapse is a sign of poor hormonal health or from chemical birth control methods, or could be weakened connective tissue from childbirth or poor nutrition. Symptoms include vaginal pain, vaginal heaviness, pain during sexual intercourse, anal pain or pressure, low back pain, incontinence or difficulty urinating, urinary tract or bladder infections,

P a g e | 335

and excessive vaginal discharge. Symptoms may worsen with activity but get better with bed rest. Medical treatment of uterine prolapse: Estrogen supplements after menopause have been credited with helping to maintain strong pelvic muscles and ligaments, but there is no strong evidence that hormone replacement medicine after menopause prevents or treats a bladder or uterine prolapse. There are known health risks associated with hormone replacement, and in most women, the risks outweigh the benefits Surgical treatments include tightening the weakened muscles without taking out the uterus, or hysterectomy which doctors usually recommend if symptoms are bothersome or if the uterus has dropped so far that it is coming through the vagina. Possible complications include urinary tract infections, ulcerations or infection, constipation, and hemorrhoids. Natural therapies can often reverse the situation, but dont rule out surgery. Limit heavy lifting and avoid unnecessary straining to have bowel movements. Avoid smoking so that you have a lower risk of chronic cough. Maintain a normal body weight through careful diet and exercise. Exercises (called Kegel exercises) can help to strengthen the muscles of the pelvis. How to do Kegel exercises: Tighten your pelvic muscles as if you are trying to hold back urine. Hold the muscles tight for a few seconds and then release them. Repeat this exercise up to 10 times. Repeat the Kegel exercises up to four times a day. A more intensive effort requires the use of a slant board and lying with the head nearer the ground and the legs up high.

Cell Salts to Help with Uterine Prolapse

To make a cell salt solution, put up to 10 tablets of each cell salt in a 16- to 24-ounce bottle; fill with water and swirl to dissolve tablets. Sip throughout the day. Learn more about cell salts > The science of biochemistry shows us that certain minerals are responsible for connective tissue health. Calcium fluoride is important to connective tissue as an inorganic component for individual cellular integrity. This is not the fluoride that is put into water systems (a toxic substance), but is in the form of cell salts discovered by Dr. Schuessler (Germany) in the 1800s. This is the mineral used for when tissues become weak and saggy or when they become too hard. Cell salts are available in most health food stores. Another cell salt to help in this process of restoring tissue integrity and elasticity is silica. It is a virtual component of tissues and their ability to rebuild and remove scarring. Together Calc fluor 6X and Silicea 6X can help the body to heal itself including both uterine and bladder prolapse. I have included these two cell salts with Kali phos 6X for nervous conditions and Ferrum phos 6X for inflammation from weakened tissues in a Cell Salt Solution for this problem. #1 Calc Fluor 6X connective tissue support #4 Ferr phos 6X inflammation from weakened tissues

Varicose Vein Natural Remedies

Varicose veins are unsightly enlarged veins generally found on the legs from ankles to the groin, on the inner parts of the legs or the back of the calves. There are usually no symptoms or pain unless the varicosity of the vein becomes severe. Moderate to sever varicose veins include redness, itching and swelling. It is worse as the day goes on. There can be associated pain. Legs may also feel heavy. Varicose veins result from weak valves in the legs and blood pools distorting the vein, circulation is not complete and vein walls may be lacking strength. Varicose veins may be from inherited connective tissue weakness, from sitting or standing too long, crossing the legs too

P a g e | 337

much, or poor circulatory health. Pregnancy may be contributing factor for women. If left untreated, varicose veins may lead to more serious problems of phlebitis, blood clots, or leg ulcers. Causes of varicose veins also include a poor diet (junk or processed foods), physical inactivity, standing too much on a job; smoking or certain medications can make the blood stick or the vein valves weak. Medical treatments range from steroid crmes to pressure socks to surgery or laser treatments. There are always side effects and vein re-growth problems. Seek prevention by looking at how you spend the majority of your time. Make sure you are not sitting or standing too long at one time. At night, elevate your legs. Set up a moderate exercise program. It is important to eat a high-fiber diet, avoiding constipation. Tobacco, alcohol, and coffee should be eliminated. It is also valuable to treat these things naturally to prevent further problems such as inflammation of the veins, embolism (clots), and leg ulcers to mention a few. Using natural means may help the body to aid itself in healing for long-term vein health.

Homeopathy four temperaments excerpt:

Phlegmatic Temperament Homeopathic Remedies

The phlegmatic temperament, from a psychological standpoint, is the pillar of society or one who preserves the ideals and normality. They are loyal to friends and family to a fault. They are not as concerned about how life outside their head operates but what is going on inside their head. They seem to be non-responsive to the outside world and slower than the other temperaments. The reason is that they are just looking inside themselves. Calcarea Carb is the archetypal phlegmatic who is very responsible and wants security. They are hard workers and may take on responsibilities which overwhelm them to the point of collapse. This may translate to anxiety and fears about finances and work, and fears of rodents, spiders, insects, the dark, diseases, poverty or heights... Lycopodium has a thinner build than calc carb but has poor muscle tone (flabby). Poor self esteem is an issue as this person is proper in public settings and never wants to be embarrassed, yet is a bully in private. This often causes them to compensate by bragging about real or imaginary feats. Their fears are of people, embarrassment, health, or being alone at night..
Carbo veg is phlegmatic because they are tired, exhausted, weak and cold as a result of some previous debilitating disease condition. Emotionally this makes them very apathetic about people... learn more in the notes.

The Elements of the Four Temperaments

Earth...The personality of earth is described as melancholic. Longing for something better that brings certain dissatisfaction, they want to be perfect, and are often frustrated as no one really achieves perfection in this life. Air...The personality of air is described as sanguine. Opposite of the melancholic temperament, they are happy and social, the party-goers; sanguine are the optimists and are fun to be with when balanced. Fire...The personality of fire is choleric which is in reference to the liver and bile. When balanced they are goal-oriented and have the fire of ambition to heights of leadership and motivation. They can be adventurous, decisive, and bold. Water...The personality of water is phlegmatic which tends to be one who is slower to answer as they tend to think things through more carefully, They are tolerant of others, peace makers, stabilizing society with their conservative family-centered values.

Cell Salts: 12 Essential Minerals

See more in our Learning Center > Schuessler cell salts are the twelve minerals essential to your bodysfunctions. They include forms of calcium, iron, potassium, magnesium, sodium, and silica that work at the cellular level; hence, the name of cell salts. See Cell Salt Descriptions. Without them you couldnt think, bend at your joints, stand up straight, digest food, or eliminate toxins. Many health problems experienced today are because of the lack of particular minerals. Deficiency of one or more of these minerals puts your body out of balance and into dis-ease, where your energy drops to nothing; you experience unclear thinking or depression, or may lose emotional balance; therefore these essential minerals help any condition or disease, and can help quickly. Anyone can buy and use these twelve cell salts, separately or in combination, without fear of toxicity. This includes pregnant or nursing women, old or young alike, those taking medications, and even those using other natural therapies. Cell salts do not react with medications because they are supplying minerals on a cellular level. They are easily given to children, as most children like the sweet taste. Purchase them individually or all 12 at once to make formulas for your particular conditions. See our website for cell salt articles on specific ailments for these powerful combinations, called Cell Salt Solutions. Some of the common uses of cell salts include: See all cell salts >

Calcium (3 forms) for bone health, prolapse conditions, hard knots, and digestion (assimilation) Iron inflammation, iron deficiency, hemochromatosis (iron buildup in the blood), and strength for veins and arteries, inflammation Potassium (3 forms) for depression, anxiety, nervousness, lung health, mucus problems, nerve health, and skin problems Magnesium for all types of pain (especially neuralgia), muscle spasms, and heart health Sodium (3 forms) for digestive power, body water balance (edema or swelling), dry skin, and high body acidity Silicea for bones, hair loss, skin and fingernail problems

Brief History: Dr. Wilhelm Schuessler, a medical doctor who was born in Germany in the 1800s, learned from the early pioneers of biochemistry about

P a g e | 342

these twelve essential minerals required for cellular health. He developed cell salts homeopathically, while grinding them into milk sugar, so they could be easily taken and assimilated, and used on a cellular level. Healthy cells amount to a healthy person. My Experience: As a nutritionist, herbalist, and homeopathic practitioner, I found cell salts tended to be overlooked in the English-Speaking world of Homeopathy. After reading a German book about how to see mineral deficiencies on a persons face, Antlitzdiagnostik by Peter Emmrich, I began to study facial diagnosis. Signs of deficiency can be seen by looking at a persons face. They are seen in the texture or color of skin, puffiness, dryness, greasiness, lines, moles, or bumps. I began using cell salts in my practice. The results were astonishing! People began asking for more information, so I wrote the book Facial Diagnosis of Cell Salt Deficiencies. Soon, a local artist sketched faces of what the facial deficiencies would look like for each of the twelve tissue remedies. They are included in The Power of Cell Salts Seminar available in the workbook along with audio recording. You can also find great information in Dave's new booklet 12 Essential Minerals for Cellular Health. Since that time, a 6-month practical study was done with our customers, including 63 cases (results coming soon). Comments from participants include: I think it made me feel more energetic and mentally balanced. All my white spots in fingernails went away, writes D. Michel, age 51. My face cleared up a lot and that has improved my emotional state. I seem more able to do sports with less problems than Ive had in the past, says S. Krohn, age 45. I feel healthier and have a better vision of life. The cell salts have helped my immune system and my digestion, from D. Scavezze, age 31. Use: Cell salts may be taken internally, or used externally in crmes, baths, or sprays. Cell salts are generally used in the 6X potency (strength). There are several manufacturers. I prefer the Hylands brand, which are available at most health-food stores. They dissolve within seconds in the mouth, water bottle, bath, or lotion. Most clients put their tablets into a water bottle and sip it all day. When taken in water, they can even be acceptable by lactose-intolerant people. If the water method is not sufficient for those who are lactose intolerant, there are homeopathic cell salts available in liquid. Cell salts may also be taken straight from the bottle to the mouth. For more information, see 6 Ways to Use Cell Salts. Experience the power of cell salts for yourself, to better your condition, or as a tonic to improve your immune system.

12 Schuessler Cell Salt Descriptions

See more in our Learning Center > See also How to Use Cell Salts, About Cell Salts, Cell Salt Solutions Cell salts are twelve inorganic biochemicals found in the blood and tissues which catalyze essential processes. They include forms of calcium, iron, potassium, magnesium, sodium,and silica that work at the cellular level; hence, the name cell salts. Minerals are essential to the proper functioning of your body. Having the right amount and proper balance brings cellular health, and healthy cells amount to a healthier you!

Calcium
#1 Calc Fluor (Calcium Fluoride) is essential to the connective tissue of the body; for all conditions of tissue weakness, prolapse, or excessive hardness. It helps the tendons, ligaments, and joints of the body. Calc Fluor is used extensively for the teeth, instead of fluoride treatments of children, to strengthen enamel. Medical fluoride causes brittleness. Anywhere you find hardness of tissues, this remedy applies, which makes it valuable for cataracts of the eyes. Any extreme sagging of muscle or tissue calls for this salt. Facial signs include blue lips, brownish black circles under the eyes, white skin flakes, and translucent tips of teeth. Raised or fan-shaped wrinkles around the eyes, as well as cracked lips. #2 Calc Phos (Calcium Phosphate) is used for bone health, injuries, and osteoporosis. Calcium metabolism, when disturbed, can causeosteoporosis or bone spurs (same problem, different manifestations). This salt treats both of them over the course of several months. It is also useful for teeth and digestive problems. Facial signs in the face are a yellowish waxy appearance, translucent tips of teeth, and white flakes in the teeth or fingernails. There is also a stretched-skin appearance on the cheekbones, and small or thin lips. #3 Calc Sulph (Calcium Sulphate) is used for infections, pus, and general toxicity of the body. The discharges are yellow and filled with pus. This salt is used to detoxify the body and improve digestion. Other uses are to finish, clean up, chronic infections and improve the immune system. Facial signs are an alabaster or dirty white coloring along the lower face or jaw line. There can also be liver spots or brown spots on the face.

P a g e | 344

Iron
#4 Ferrum Phos (Ferrum Phosphate) is important for our blood and oxygenation of the blood. It is very useful for low fevers and the first signs of a cold or flu. It is the most useful for nose bleeds or other blood conditions, even hemorrhages. It is helpful for balancing iron in the body whether it is high in some situations, or low in others, such as seen in pregnancy. It works to reduce anemia by helping the body to absorb iron. Facial signs are seen as bluish black circles under the eyes. Acutely, we see red cheeks and ears, in fever condition. One also sees a sleepless or hung-over appearance. Chronic iron conditions are seen in anemia which can show as paleness in the face.

Potassium
#5 Kali Mur (Potassium Chloride) is used with medium fever conditions. It is useful for mucus conditions of the body, especially for mucus of the lungs with coughs, allergies, etc. The conditions for this cell salt are grey or thick white mucus. Facial signs shown in the face are a milky appearance to the skin; this may be mixed with red, purple or blue. I have seen much success in acne rosacea with underlying spider veins, as well as raised bumps just below the shoulders on the upper arms. #6 Kali Phos (Potassium Phosphate) helps the nerves and gray matter of the brain. When the nerves are depleted by stress, we can see depression or sleeplessness. This is also used in pain and paralysis, fear,suspicion, weakness of memory. This remedy is for the anxious and nervous person. Nerves affected by Kali Phos are of the central nervous system. Facial signs show in an ashen gray appearance as well as a dull appearance of the eyes (they don't sparkle). One also can see, in more chronic conditions, sunken temples or cheeks. Bad breath and body odor (nervous sweat) is also a sign. #7 Kali Sulph (Potassium Sulphate) is specific to the third stage of inflammation or resolution. We find yellow discharges wherever there is a lack of sulphate in the system. There is breakdown of the skin and high fevers from infections or inflammations. This is the body's attempt to foster the bacteria to do their job of getting rid of self-inflicted toxins from a poor diet, or polluted conditions of living in a modern world. When this brings sweating, it is near the end of the toxic condition. It is used for eczema, sinusitis, asthma, psoriasis, and more. Facial signs are seen as brownish-yellow pigmentation of the nose-mouth area. Liver spots, pregnancy mask, freckles, or a lack of pigmentation (vitiligo).

Magnesium
#8 Mag Phos (Magnesium Phosphate) is a nerve remedy also, but deals with muscular nerves and fibers. The symptoms are cramping, fast onset, primarily on the right side of the body. This

P a g e | 345

mineral affects and feeds the heart and cardiovascular system. It is a great antispasmodic, useful for many areas of the body, including menstrual cramps. Mag Phos has a particular sign of symptoms being relieved by heat and pressure. Facial signs are seen as blushing, in acute conditions. In chronic situations we see a constant redness of the cheeks of a bright "magnesium redness" of a long standing character on the nose; this can especially be seen in those with liver damage, including alcoholics.

Sodium
#9 Nat Mur (Sodium Chloride) is one of the most famous cell salts for digestion, arthritis, and water distribution problems. The key is dryness of the mucus membranes or excessively watery discharges. Emotionally one sees grief and personal isolation. The person is very sensitive; prefers to be alone (for a defense). There may be malnutrition, constipation, anemia, and thin salty watery discharges from the body. Facial signs are seen in a gelatinous appearance in the lower eyelid border. The hair line is often red and greasy. Large pores are a sign, as well as dandruff, puffy cheeks and a bloated appearance. #10 Nat Phos (Sodium Phosphate) governs the acid balance of the body. Alkalinity is health and over acid conditions allow for disease. The tongue often has a yellow mucus coating. Acid signs are seen as sour body smell or sour-smelling discharges. Indigestion is a sign of lack of this salt. Candida infections, or vaginal yeast, as well as parasites come with over acid conditions also. Facial signs are seen in blackheads and a greasy combination skin. Yellow raised pimple-like bumps around the eyes. The chin is red. Cheeks have dry or greasy appearance. Rings or metal jewelry can cause discoloration on the skin because of acidity. #11 Nat Sulph (Sodium Sulphate) is responsible for liver health and is used for those with head injuries where one has become depressed and irritable. As with all sulphates, there are yellow discharges. This salt is responsible for helping the body to get rid of excess water. This is valuable for those with water retention. One can also use this for all kinds of hepatitis. Used for diabetes and also for asthma in children, especially in damp weather. This person may also be experiencing bad-smelling gas. Facial signs include a slight greenish cast in acute conditions, as well as a yellow eye sclera. There are signs of swollen lower eye bags. In chronic conditions where the liver is damaged, a swollen purplish red nose will appear, again, especially in alcoholics.

Silica
#12 Silicea (Silica) is responsible for connective tissue weakness and the body's ability to rid itself of foreign objects. This is done by creating pus. This remedy can dissolve scar tissue, and is very useful for keloid scars, skin problems, and vaccination reactions. Emotionally, those

P a g e | 346

needing Silica are timid; their hands and feet are continuously cold. They often wear sweaters in the heat of the summer. Facial signs include a glossy polished shine, as a bald man has, and wrinkles of the skin. Silica has specific wrinkles that run parallel to the ears, crows feet, and more. Generally, you will see deep set eyes. Hair may be brittle, along with finger and toe nails. This deficiency is also seen as red eyes.

Bioplasma
Bioplasma is a combination of all 12 mineral salts which provides a broad-spectrum mineral supply for the body. While feeding and nourishing it also acts as a mild detoxifier, cleaning on the cellular level.

Biochemic Phosphates
Biochemic Phosphates is a combination of 5 cell salts that feeds and strengthens the nerves. A great help for our fast-paced lives, Biochemic Phosphates relieves depression, anxiety, stress, and nervousness. -Calc Phos affects the nerves associated with bones and digestion. -Ferrum Phos soothes nerve inflammation and oxygenates the body for better health. -Kali Phos strengthens the central nervous system and feeds the brain. -Mag Phos for nerve pain, especially where there is spasm and twitching. -Nat Phos affects the nerves by regulating the acid-alkaline balance of the body. Experience for yourself the healing power of cell salts to get healthy, become stronger, or use as a tonic to improve your immune system.

6 Ways to Use Cell Salts

See more in our Learning Center > Cell salts may be taken internally, or used externally in crmes, baths, or sprays. Cell salts are generally used in the 6X potency (strength). There are several manufacturers. I prefer the Hylands brand, which are available at most health-food stores. They dissolve within seconds in the mouth, water bottle, bath, or lotion. Most clients put their tablets into a water bottle and sip it all day. When taken in water, they can even be acceptable by lactose-intolerant people. If the water method is not sufficient for those who are lactose intolerant, there are homeopathic cell salts available in liquid. Not only can you take cell salt tablets internally, you can use them externally in lotions, creams, gels, or in sprays, or even baths. Here, you will also see some cell salt combinations for specific

P a g e | 347

ailments; we call them Cell Salt Solutions. Use them internally, or externally, depending on your situation, to strengthen and support your health. Learn more about Cell Salts > INTERNAL USES

1. Dry Method (in mouth)

Tap the right amount of cell salt tablets (preferably Hylands brand) into the cap and drop them into your mouth. They should dissolve instantly and taste good. Most people like the taste, even children. The most effective way to use cell salts is to take two to 20 tablets at a time, one to three times daily.

2. Wet Method (drinking)

There are almost no rules or precautions when using cell salts in water. Many people use their daily dose of cell salts individually, or in combination, in their water bottle. See how to make a cell salt solution. Sip a little all day long. The cell salts energize the water and create a true mineral water that wont clog up your veins or your arteries, as some supplements do. The bottle can be as small as a few ounces or as large as a gallon; size doesnt matter. Just finish the water by the end of the day. This method allows for higher water intake and a smooth cell salt delivery. The better the water, the better the results, as pure water dissolves out toxins, improves the joints, and your health in general. It is best to use reverse osmosis or distilled water as there are no hard minerals, again, to clog up the body. This method also allows a person to eat or drink anything else. As one sips on the cell salt water, every sip or swallow results in a substantial flow of assimilating minerals. Drink your way to health and sooner or later it will show up on your face.
EXTERNAL USES

3. Cell Salt Gels, Oils, Creams, and Lotions

Cell salts are versatile and can be used in various external ways. In Europe, cell salts are incorporated into crmes and used on the skin. Remember, they work on a cellular level. If you are a do-it-yourself kind of person, you can make your own gels or crmes. Here is the recipe: Take your favorite cell salt or combination of salts, crush the tablets into powder and put into a non-aromatic (non-smelling) gel.

P a g e | 348

Gels have the advantage of being water based and non-sticky and are easily absorbed into the skin. Aloe is a good one. In one ounce of your favorite gel, etc, put five to ten crushed cell salt tablets and mix well, then keep the container tightly closed. Some of the products absorb the salts better then others. Dont worry about the appearance. Creams have an advantage of a slower delivery of cell salts to the skin. They have a time release effect. The disadvantage is slow sticky sensation that may happen. You may continue to rub them in for faster absorption. Lotions as well as crmes can be a commercial product without a smell. Look for products that have simple ingredients and avoid those with chemical sounding ingredients. Lotions ten to absorb into the skin and can have the added benefit of moisturizers. Oils dont absorb the cell salts very readily but are soothing to the skin and can be used in nonsmelling massage oil. Use your cell salt gels, oils, creams, or lotions on acupressure points, chakra centers, organ areas, and meridian lines as well as sore or painful areas. Just remember to consult a doctor if an area is very painful or sore for several days or weeks. Since cell salts are non-toxic, you cant make a mistake. Be adventurous and find the formulas that work best for you.

4. Cell Salt Poultice

Create a cell salt poultice by putting ten or more specific cell salts or a combination of salts (formula) in a quart of purified water and stir or shake vigorously for 2 minutes. Put a soft cotton towel in the water and then wring out the excess. Put the cloth on the part of the body that you want to relieve. You can put cold water on for sunburns. (See the sunburn formula under cell salt sprays.) Hot water poultices, with the right cell salt formulas can sooth menstrual cramps, relieve pain, and more. You can also use the poultice over a particular organ or muscle.

5. Cell Salt Sprays

Put your cell salts into a spray bottle containing purified or distilled water. I would recommend ten tablets per quart. The advantage of spraying is that cell salts are absorbed directly through the skin, working at the cellular level. This is also good for those who are lactose intolerant. One of our customers likes to spray a wrinkle formula on her face before she goes to bed at night. For those with anxiety and panic, use Biochemic Phosphates (10 tablets per quart) to relax. Try this combination for sunburn: Calc Phos, Ferr Phos, and Kali Mur (three tablets of each per quart).

6. Cell Salt Baths

Enjoy the luxury and therapy of putting cell salts into your bath water. The cell salts disperse well into the water while the pores of the body open up to accept the minerals. Use twenty 20 pellets of

P a g e | 349

any cell salt in bath water, or use a combination that adds up to that number of tablets. For a general detoxification bath, put 20 tablets of the Bioplasma pellets into hot water. A simple strengthener for those with osteoporosis would be Calc Phos, Calc Fluor, and Silicea. You can put 20 of each, if you like. A good pain formula is Ferrum Phos, Mag Phos, and Nat Sulph. A relaxing bath should have Mag Phos, Kali Phos, and Nat Mur. To alleviate the discomfort of menstrual cramps, use Mag Phos, Kali Sulph, Kali Phos.

Cell Salt Solutions

See more in our Learning Center > The following is an excerpt from 12 Essential Minerals for Cellular Health by David R. Card: Cell Salt Solutions are combinations of cell salts you can put together to satisfy the cellular needs of the body systems. It is best to use a combination of all the salts listed under each condition, or use individual salts if indicated. Stick to one Cell Salt Solution until the condition or dis-ease improves. The results can show up in days, weeks, or months for those with chronic conditions.Acute conditions usually respond within hours or days. To make your own Cell Salt Solution, place 2 - 10 tablets of each cell salt in a 12 to 24-ounce water bottle and shake. Sip on it during the day. You may use one or all cell salts in a formula, according to your own needs.

How Homeopathy Works

See more in our Learning Center > See more about homeopathy and how to use homeopathic medicines Share your success stories by emailing us at info@daveshealingnotes.com Homeopathy was founded in the late eighteenth century by the celebrated German physician Samuel Hahnemann, known for his work in pharmacology, hygiene, public health, industrial toxicology, and psychiatry. Reacting to the barbarous practices of his day, such as bloodletting (the use of leeches), and toxic mercury-based laxatives, Dr. Hahnemann set out to find a more rational and humane approach to medicine. Dr. Hahnemanns breakthrough came during an experiment in which he twice daily ingested cinchona, a Peruvian bark well-known as a cure for malaria. Soon after he began his experiment he developed periodic fevers common to malaria. As soon as he stopped taking the cinchona, his symptoms disappeared. Dr. Hahnemann theorized that, if taking a large dose of cinchona created symptoms of malaria in a healthy person, this same substance, taken in smaller dose by a person suffering from malaria, might stimulate the body to fight the disease. His theory was born out by years of experiments with hundreds of substances that produced similar results. Based on his work, Dr. Hahnemann formulated the principles of homeopathy.

P a g e | 354

The Principles of Homeopathy

1. Like cures like (Law of Similars) 2. The more a remedy is diluted, the greater its potency (Law of the Infinitesimal Dose) 3. An illness is specific to the individual (a holistic medical model

Like Cures Like

According to Dr. Hahnemann, Each individual case of disease is most surely, radically, rapidly, and permanently annihilated and removed only by a medicine capable of producing (in the human system) the most similar and complete manner of the totality of the symptoms. In other words, the same substance that in large doses produces the symptoms of an illness, in very minute doses cures it. Dr. Hahnemann referred to this phenomenon as the Law of Similars, a principle first recognized in the fourth century B.C., by Hippocrates, who was studying the effects of herbs upon disease. This Law of Similars was also the theoretical basis for the vaccines of physicians Edward Jenner, Jonas Salk, and Louis Pasteur. They would immunize the body with trace amounts of a disease component, often a virus, to strengthen its immune response to the actual disease. Allergies are treated in a similar fashion by introducing minute quantities of the suspected allergen into the body to bolster natural tolerance levels.

The More Diluted, the Greater Its Potency

Most people believe that the higher the dose of a medicine, the greater the effect. But the opposite holds true in homeopathy where the more a substance is diluted, the higher its potency. Dr. Hahnemann discovered this Law of the Infinitesimal Dose by experimenting with higher and higher dilutions of substances to avoid toxic side effects. Today, homeopathic remedies are usually prepared through a process of diluting with pure water or alcohol and succussing (vigorous shaking). Homeopathic solutions can be diluted to such an extent that literally no molecules of the original substance remain in the remedy. Yet, the more dilute it gets the more potent it becomes. This phenomenon has been the source of great fascination among practitioners and researchers in the field of homeopathic medicine, as from the point of view of conventional chemistry; diluted homeopathic remedies may contain no trace of the original substance. In fact, any homeopathic remedy over 24X potency (24 successive dilutions and succussions) will have no chemical trace of the original substance remaining.

Illness Is Specific to the Individual

A session with a homeopathic practitioner is a unique experience for someone accustomed to conventional medicine. For instance, you may suffer from chronic headaches, perhaps migraines. While the conventional medical treatment for this condition is the same for most everyone (some form of analgesic or anti-inflammatory), homeopathy recognizes over two hundred symptom patterns associated with headaches, and has corresponding remedies for each.

P a g e | 355

CYour headache may be in the front of your head. It may get worse with a cold sensation and improve with heat. It may be better while you are laying down, or while you are sitting up. You may be a person who is thin, and easily excited, or the docile, sedentary sort. The first task of the homeopathic practitioner is a process called profiling, or recording all of the qualitiesphysical, mental, and emotional-that will determine the patients remedy or combination of remedies. Practitioners of classical homeopathy consult vast compendiums called repertories and materia medicas to determine the remedy that most closely matches the total picture of the patients symptomology. These compendiums are compilations of the findings of thousands of tests, for over two hundred years, that record how healthy individuals react to different substances. The very detailed reactions of the subjects are catalogued in these compendiums and the homeopathic practitioners task is to match them exactly to the patients profile.

Solve Back to School Anxiety with Homeopathy

Going back to school can be really daunting for many kids but especially if they are starting at a new school, or beginning school for the first time. Homeopathy treats back to school anxiety or nerves very effectively and I am going to show you what to do, as well as give you some further self help tips if you a parent of an anxious child. Although severe or chronic anxiety needs a consultation with a professional Homeopath, if your child is worrying unduly about starting school this year, or about an exam, test or performance, then Homeopathy may be an easy solution.

P a g e | 356
How to Soothe your anxious Child with words Reassure: Its important for your child to know that this is normal and that everyone sometimes has this feeling and that it will pass. Reflect: Reflect what you observe in your child back to them. Try and avoid talking about how you felt on an occasion but instead use phrases that show you understand what they are feeling such as: I can see you are feeling really nervous/anxious; or for older kids: I noticed you looked anxious when we were talking about school today.is there anything in particular you were worried about? Validate: Explain to your younger child that it is normal to sometimes feel worried about something new but once they get to school and get used to the newness, they will feel better fast. Provide Opportunities to Talk: Younger kids may find it difficult to express why they are worried, whilst older teenagers may just not want to talk about it. Just letting them know you are there to chat should they want to, is sometimes enough.

How to soothe with Homeopathy There are many effective Homeopathic medicines for back to school anxiety and they are also perfect to use with other types of anxiety such as a trip to the dentist, or nerves before an exam or performance. All medicines should be available in your local health shop or online. Read the descriptions for each medicine below and choose the one most appropriate for your child. Give the homeopathic medicine 3 times a day if the symptoms are present , for up to 14 days. Calc Phos 30: This is the number 1 medicine to try when your child is reluctant to go to school. They may have headaches and/or tummy aches that prevent them from going. They may deny there is anything is wrong at school but they have the convenient illness that allows them to stay at home. Often the medicine to think of for the younger child. Gelsemium 30: A great general anticipatory anxiety remedy for anxiety before an event such as a first day, exam, or performance. Child feels cowardly and weak. They feel the task ahead of them is too much. (If in doubt and your childs anticipatory anxiety symptoms are hard to define, try Gelsemium first before other homeopathic medicines.) Argentum Nitricum 30: Your child has an anticipatory anxiety and feels very nervous. They are likely to have diarrhoea and flatulence with their anxiety. Lycopodium 30: Give this medicine when your child is fearful that they will fail and look foolish or incompetent in front of others. They are likely to cover this anxiety up with an overly confident manner but they dont feel confident. Often these types will perform very well each time but still have the preceding anxiety. Aconite 30: Give this medicine for a child who is extremely fearful with marked restlessness. They cannot sit still and may actually have a scared expression. This is also the main acute Homeopathic medicines for panic style attacks with a beating heart, senation of not being able to get enough air, and feeling faint. Arsenicum 30: Give this Homeopathic medicine when your child is very restless and insecure with their anxiety. They may show a degree of exhaustion but you know this tiredness has an emotional basis and is linked to anxiety.

Nutrition for the Anxious Child It is important if your child is anxious to watch their sugar intake. Anxiety makes the adrenals work as it causes over production of both cortisol and adrenaline amongst other hormones. The adrenal glands also have to work hard with a diet high in sugar so frequent sources of protein in snacks/meals is important such as nuts and seeds, humous with carrot sticks, eggs, meat and fish. This balances the blood sugar and takes the load off those adrenal glands. There are certain supplements that will help support your childs system and ensure they have the best resources available to help them cope: Multi B vitamin: B vitamins are very important for the nervous system so adequate intake is essential Magnesium is important for many systems in the body but will also help your child be calm at night for restful sleep Vitamin C 1000mg daily: Vitamin C supports the adrenal glands and as they work extra hard in times of anxiety this is key.

For Parents When our kids are not happy it is easy to worry ourselves. Know that this is just a short phase and that your childs ability to weather this storm will give them tools to weather greater storms that may happen in their lives. If your children never hit adversity and find ways to self cope, they will not grow into coping adults. Love is the best provision you can provide as well as a sense of normality in their home environment.

Homoeopathy for Anxiety in Children

A discussion of childhood anxiety and some relevant remedies.

Children experience feelings of nervousness, fear, or worry from time to time. These feelings are part of a normal response to a stressful situation. However, when they occur to such an extent that they interfere with normal life, an anxiety disorder may be the underlying cause. Childhood anxiety disorder may be manifested by symptoms such as extreme nervousness, inability to concentrate, poor school performance, and physical symptoms like nausea, heart palpitations, headache, shortness of breath, and sweating. Childhood anxiety disorder can be the result of a recent traumatic or high-stress event such as a move to a new home and school, divorce of the parents, death of a pet or a loved one, or it can have no obvious environmental or emotional basis at all. Anxiety disorder in children is treated most successfully when treatment begins early. Treating anxiety may include a combination of talk therapy, positive reinforcement, and in some cases medications. Symptoms of childhood anxiety disorder: Anxiety disorder can be difficult to recognize, because symptoms are often attributed to other factors (like social anxiety). Signs of extreme nervousness and restlessness, an inability to concentrate, poor school performance, difficulty relating to peers, irritability, and physical complaints such as nausea, upset stomach and frequent headaches may indicate an anxiety disorder. Causes of childhood anxiety disorder: Medical researchers have not yet fully uncovered the causes of anxiety disorder. There is some suggestion of a hereditary link, as anxiety and other mental disorders tend to run in families, and studies have located small differences in areas of the brain that influence anxiety. How to diagnose childhood anxiety disorder? Anxiety diagnosis is based mainly on observations by the doctor and parents While there are no laboratory tests that can pinpoint anxiety disorder, certain tests may rule out another underlying medical cause of the symptoms. Common categories of childhood anxiety disorder:

P a g e | 360

Some of the most common types of childhood anxiety disorders include obsessive-compulsive disorder, phobias (irrational and overwhelming fears), separation anxiety disorder, post traumatic stress disorder, and panic disorder,. These conditions usually affect children between the ages of 6 and 11. Treatment: Treatment of anxiety in children is more effective the sooner it is addressed after the appearance of symptoms. The most common form of treatment is psychotherapy and teaching positive reinforcement techniques; medicines may also be prescribed for children with anxiety. Anxiety in Children- Homopathic Treatment Aconitum napellus: A panic attack that comes on suddenly with very strong fear (even fear of death) may indicate this remedy. A state of immense anxiety may be accompanied by strong palpitations, shortness of breath, and flushing of the face. Sometimes a shaking experience will be the underlying cause. Strong feelings of anxiety may also occur when a person is just beginning to come down with a flu or cold. Argentum nitricum: Anxiety develops before a big event: an exam, an important interview, a public appearance or social engagement. Dizziness and diarrhea may also be experienced. Children who need this remedy are often enthusiastic and suggestible, with a tendency toward peculiar thoughts and impulses. They often crave sweets and salt (which usually make their symptoms worse). Arsenicum album: Children who are deeply anxious about their health, and extremely concerned with order and security, often benefit from this remedy. Obsessive about small details and very neat, they may feel a desperate need to be in control of everything. Panic attacks often occur around midnight or the very early hours of the morning. The child may feel exhausted yet still be restlessfidgeting, pacing, and anxiously moving from place to place. These children may also have digestive problems or asthma attacks accompanied by anxiety. Calcarea carbonica: This remedy is usually indicated for dependable, solid people who become overwhelmed from physical illness or too much work and start to fear a breakdown. Their thoughts can be muddled and confused when tired, which adds to the anxiety. Worry and bad news may agitate them, and a nagging dread of disaster (to themselves or others) may develop. Fear of heights and claustrophobia are also common. A child who needs this remedy is often chilly and sluggish, has a craving for sweets, and is easily fatigued. Gelsemium: Feelings of weakness, trembling, and mental dullness (being paralyzed by fear) suggest a need for this remedy. It is often helpful when a child has stage-fright about a public performance or interview, or feels anxious before a test, a visit to the dentist, or any stressful event. Chills, perspiration, diarrhea, and headaches will often occur with nervousness.

P a g e | 361
Fear of crowds, a fear of falling, and even a fear that the heart might stop are other indications for Gelsemium.

Ignatia amara: A sensitive child who is anxious because of grief, loss, disappointment, criticism, loneliness (or any stressful emotional experience) may benefit from this remedy. A defensive attitude, frequent sighing, and mood swings are other indications. The child may burst unexpectedly into either tears or laughter. Headaches that feel like a nail driven into the side of the head, and cramping pains in the abdomen or back, are often seen when this remedy is needed. Kali phosphoricum: When a child has been exhausted by overwork or illness and feels a deep anxiety and inability to cope, this remedy may help. The child is jumpy and oversensitive, and may be startled by ordinary sounds. Hearing unpleasant news or thinking of world events can aggravate the problems. Insomnia and an inability to concentrate may develop, increasing the sense of nervous dread. Eating, warmth, and rest often bring relief. Headaches, backaches, and nervous digestive upsets are often seen when this remedy is needed. Lycopodium: Children likely to respond to this remedy feel anxiety from mental stress and suffer from a lack of confidence. They can be self-conscious and feel intimidated by people they perceive as powerful (yet may also be domineering toward those with whom they feel more comfortable). Taking on responsibility can cause a deep anxiety and fear of failure, although the person usually does well, once started on a task. Claustrophobia, irritability, digestive upsets with gas and bloating, and a craving for sweets are often seen when this remedy is needed. Natrum muriaticum: Deep emotions and a self-protective shyness can make these children seem reserved, aloof, and private. Even when feeling lonely, they tend to stay away from social situations, not knowing what to say or do. Easily hurt and offended, they can brood, bear grudges, dwell on unhappy feelings, and isolate themselvesrefusing consolation even when they want it. They are often sympathetic listeners to other peoples problems. Claustrophobia, anxiety at night (with fears of robbers or intruders), migraines, and insomnia are often seen when this remedy is needed. Phosphorus: Children who need this remedy are openhearted, imaginative, excitable, easily startled, and full of intense and vivid fears. Strong anxiety can be triggered by thinking of almost anything. Nervous and sensitive to others, they can overextend themselves with sympathy to the point of feeling exhausted and spaced out or even getting ill. They want a lot of company and reassurance, often feeling better from conversation or a backrub. Easy flushing of the face, palpitations, thirst, and a strong desire for cold, refreshing foods are other indications for Phosphorus. Pulsatilla: Children who need this remedy often express anxiety as insecurity and clinginess, with a need for constant support and comforting. The child may be moody, tearful, whiny, even emotionally childish.

P a g e | 362
Getting too warm or being in a stuffy room often increases anxiety. Fresh air and gentle exercise often bring relief. Anxiety around the time of hormonal changes (puberty, menstrual periods, or menopause) often is helped with Pulsatilla.

Silicea : Children who need this remedy are capable and serious, yet are also nervous, shy, and subject to bouts of temporary loss of confidence. Anxiety can be extreme when they are faced with a public appearance, interview, examination, or any new job or task. Worry and overwork can bring on headaches, difficulty concentrating, and states of exhaustion, oversensitivity, and dread. Responsible and diligent, they often overreact and devote attention to tiny detailsmaking their worries (and their work) more difficult. They often have low stamina and come down with colds, sore throats, or other illnesses after working hard or being under stress. A Case of separation anxiety: Master Rahul, aged 9 yrs, studies in 3rd standard. The child started developing the following symptoms when the school reopened after vacation. : Fear of being alone. Difficulty in sleeping and he gets up frightened from sleep, after which he is unable to sleep. Frequently complaints of headache and stomach ache. He refuses to go to school without his mother. Previously he used to go in an auto with his friends. Throws a tantrum when his mother returns home after dropping him at school. Complaints of loose stools and attacks of breathlessness accompanied by anxiety. Moves anxiously from place to place. Restless. A recent traumatic event had occurred in the family where his mother was hospitalized for a week. The following line of treatment was adopted: Psychotherapy: This helped the child learn to understand his feelings and tolerate the separation to a more natural degree. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy: This taught the child to change the way he thinks about separation, allowing him to respond more appropriately to natural separation from his mother. Medication: Homoeopathic medicine (Ars Alb 200) was given. He recovered well with treatment. There were some brief recurrences of the anxiety, but the coping skills learned through treatment were effective at dealing with the problem when it came up the next time, making each instance shorter and more manageable until the anxiety disappeared completely. The childs self esteem was strengthened through positive reinforcement. The whole family supported and helped the child as he was undergoing treatment.

:: Arnica Rules! in Pregnancy by Miranda Castro ::

First published in Homeopathy Today I was asked recently whether there were any circumstances where homeopathy might be contra-indicated' for pregnant women. The question centered on a woman in her first trimester (3 month's pregnant) who had been involved in a car accident and was in a state of partial shock. She had suffered some abdominal bruising from banging into the steering wheel and was bleeding from the uterus. She was hoping that she wouldn't miscarry, and

P a g e | 363
wondered if whether it was safe to take Arnica. This is definitely one situation where a little Arnica could go a long way! Dick Moskowitz MD, in the introduction to his book Homeopathic Medicines for Pregnancy and Childbirth writes impressively: "I have used homeopathic remedies since 1974 in more than 800 pregnancies. I have found them to be wonderfully safe and effective in many situations in which conventional drugs and surgery are not required." The safety of homeopathic medicines in pregnancy has been confirmed by 200 years of homeopathic clinical practice around the world, and although we don't know what the unborn baby of a hurt mother is going through exactly, we do know that if the mother is in a state of shock then something of this will almost certainly affect her child. And therefore ... anything that can help the mother to heal, to feel better in herself, must and will be of benefit to the baby. I am a self confessed Arnica fanatic. I have been known to wax lyrical about its miraculous properties to anyone who will listen. And this is why...Arnica works! On almost anybody. It is as close to a 'specific' as we can get ... and we (homeopaths) don't have many of those. A specific medicine is one that we can give for a complaint with a high degree of certainty that it will help. Dorothy Shepherd writes in her exquisite little book The Physician's Posy: "You may have heard it mentioned that there are no specifics in Homeopathy, a specific being a drug which, in a doctor's mind, as well as in those of lay people, is associated with a certain disease. ... There is no rule without an exception, so we are taught in grammar, and even in Homeopathy you get exceptions to rules. The best specific I know is Arnica for injuries, falls and accidents of all sorts. In the German language it is called 'Fall Kraut' or 'falling herb', to show its main action." For many people Arnica provides incontrovertible proof that homeopathy works. Because at the end of the day homeopathy as a healing concept is fairly fantastic. The idea that anything so small can have an effect is weird. We have to see it to believe it. And once your have seen it work you are hooked, as many of those (of you) reading these words will agree. It is somewhat impressive to see that egg on your child's forehead, caused by a nasty fall, to reduce and disappear altogether, in front of your very eyes, within minutes ... having given him or her a single tablet of Arnica (in potency of course). There is no further pain and no discoloration. The bruising is healed from the inside. A mini-miracle. I remember the time I stepped out to cross a road early one morning without looking, from behind a large truck. In England we can cross a road anywhere, we are not limited to 'official crossings'. We learn to 'stop, look and listen' before crossing a road and hammer this into our children. Myself included! This particular morning I neither stopped, looked nor listened. I just stepped out, in front of a car traveling at about 30 miles an hour. The car ran over one of my feet (and its fender smashed into my leg). I was very shaken and hurt, but I found to my surprise and great relief, that I could stand on my leg and move all the toes of my foot and so I knew that nothing had been broken. The driver of the car (a pharmacist from our local hospital!) was shaken as well, and relieved that I only wanted him to drive me home. I wanted to get at that bottle of Arnica ASAP! I stood in my sitting room and surveyed my state! I was shaking uncontrollably and crying with relief. The words "I could have died" ran through my mind over and over. Ah-ha! I recognized my old friend Aconite. I took a single dose and the shock and trembling melted away immediately.

P a g e | 364
I turned my attention to my foot. It had swelled to twice its size in a short half hour and was incredibly painful. It was starting to go nasty shades of yellow, purple and black in a small area that I knew would spread to the whole foot and up my ankle and leg over the next few hours. My shin was also painful and swollen. The pain was intense but more of a deep soreness, and this was unusual for me. When I get hurt I usually get sharp or unbearable pains. For example, after dental treatment or if I sprain an ankle Arnica never ever works because I do not have the bruised soreness that guides us to Arnica ... and I am never stoical! This time it was different ... I heard myself telling a colleague (on the phone) "I'm OK really, it doesn't hurt that much. It could have been much worse." Yeah, right! I took Arnica in a high potency, because of the severity of the accident and because I wanted results (I was scheduled to be the best woman (!maid of honor) at my best friend's wedding the following day). The pain eased up within minutes and I used it as a guide as to when I should take my next dose. Initially I took it every 15 minutes or so but was soon able to reduce that to every hour or two. The swelling reduced gradually until my foot was back to normal after by that evening. The discoloration did not spread but reduced to an area the size of a quarter (and disappeared altogether within a couple of days) I was also fortunate in that an osteopathic friend of mine passed by my house and gave me an adjustment that helped my body balance from the jar it had received during the injury. The next day I walked up the aisle easily and my foot fitted in those beautiful shoes I had bought especially for the event! The word miracle comes to mind once again. Even I found myself saying "Well, maybe it wasn't as bad as it looked." Right! A whole (normal sized) car ran over my foot! So. Let's return to the woman who had an abdominal injury, with bruising to her abdomen followed by a passive hemorrhage. While Arnica is always great for bruising, it isn't the only remedy and there is another one that might have been better in this situation. Bellis perennis is a remedy for bruises, especially to the abdomen, with sore bruised pains (just like Arnica), but the pains are more severe. It is also helpful for complaints of the uterus with weakness and bleeding. It is a specific for bruised soreness after abdominal surgery, and for lumps and bumps that remain after bruising. I have used it for exactly this type of deep bruised soreness in pregnancy (where Arnica did not help) and after childbirth, again, where Arnica did not help. They have difficulty sleeping, typically after 3 am, and I have sometimes used this symptom to confirm Bellis perennis in women who are feeling sore and bruised after childbirth. Those needing Bellis perennis tend not to be as stoical as those needing Arnica. The typical 'Arnica patient' always says they are OK when they plainly aren't OK, and this symptom alone can guide you to a successful Arnica prescription ... where there is bruising to soft tissues (muscles) with sore, bruised pains. Get it!!! To bring this discussion back to keynotes, I have found Bellis perennis to be almost a specific remedy for women who experience severe pains in their groin during the last few months of pregnancy, pains which come on suddenly while walking, and which are severe enough to make walking impossible until they have passed. This is due to the stretching of the ligaments and nerves of the uterus and a single dose of Bellis perennis causes the pains to pass quickly this time and helps prevent their recurrence. When a pregnant woman takes a homeopathic remedy we can assume her unborn baby receives something of the same remedy - even if it is a secondary effect. Logically speaking, if a woman is feeling unwell or is hurt, and the remedy stimulates her vital force, her inner healer, then this positive response can only be of benefit to her baby. Arnica alone is a little wonderful remedy during pregnancy (for minor injuries, for discomfort with an active baby

P a g e | 365
who kicks out causing some soreness); during labor (where it can speed labor and help the muscles to do their work with a minimum of physical stress and strain); and after the birth (with healing strained tissues). But don't forget Arnica's close friend Bellis perennis for when Arnica isn't as helpful as expected. Learn your remedies and use them wisely and they will become like dear old friends you cannot imagine how you ever lived without!

:: A Question of Tone in Pregnancy: Caulophyllum and more ::

First published in Homeopathy Today Caulophyllum (or blue cohosh) has long been used by Native Americans as a birthing herb, hence two of its common names: squaw root or papoose root. Caulophyllum's special gift is in working with women whose tissues have lost their tone, especially the tissues of the uterus. Its reputation for establishing effective contractions in labor is deserved. It works like a dream ... when it is called for. Some homeopathic books advise pregnant women to take Caulophyllum (in potency) during the last weeks or even months before delivery to prepare them for an easy labor. Taken in pregnancy, Caulophyllum CAN pave the way for a trouble-free childbirth if it is indicated, but if it is taken routinely and unnecessarily it can also cause some difficulties in labor. If taken repeatedly when not indicated, proving symptoms may develop. Caulophyllum can be taken to prepare women for easier births but is primarily indicated for sedentary women with poor muscle tone, or for those who have a history of gynecological problems or difficult births. Women who are fit, who have healthy muscle tone, should avoid them ... or take them only on the instruction of an experienced herbalist or homeopath. Caulophyllum is a beautiful homeopathic medicine for women in their childbearing years ... for certain conditions during pregnancy, labor or after birth. In late pregnancy Caulophyllum is useful for annoying Braxton Hicks contractions. In long drawn out labors it is needed for extremely painful, ineffective contractions which do not "work," in other words, the cervix does not dilate. The pains "fly about" the abdomen, from one place to another. Sometimes the labor slows down and even stops altogether. After labor the uterus doesn't contract properly and becomes prolapsed, or the placenta is not expelled easily. Exhaustion, trembling, thirst and chilliness accompany the above complaints. Strangely the chilliness is no better for being covered. So what about the use of Caulophyllum at the end of a pregnancy to bring on labor? Since a normal pregnancy can range from 37 to 42 weeks, it is almost impossible to predict a baby's birthday accurately. The question of overdue babies is a vexed one because come the ninth month (by dates) doctors and midwives get itchy fingers and want that baby out! In many Western countries the rise of inductions and Cesareans confirms a trend towards births that are managed by medical professionals rather than births where nature is encouraged to take its course. I am not talking of the wonderful life-saving work that medics are able to offer women whose births have become complicated. I am simply questioning the wisdom of unnecessary interventions that appear to be designed for the convenience of doctors and hospitals. A colleague was called recently by a pregnant woman who had passed her due date and was being threatened with an induced labor. She asked whether she could take Caulophyllum. The homeopath hesitated to recommend a homeopathic remedy since she was healthy and happy in all other respects. She had tried vigorous exercise but it hadn't worked. She jumped at the suggestion to have a spicy meal. She went to a restaurant nearby whose specialty of the house (quite coincidentally) was a salad reputed to bring on labor in women who are ready to deliver! She ate the salad and four hours later went into labor. Six hours later a beautiful baby greeted her spicy parents!

P a g e | 366
Had the spicy dinner not worked then a few doses of Caulophyllum might have been called for, as it can help to start a labor that is late (according to dates) but ready, i.e., the baby is ready to come out and the mother's body is correspondingly ready to deliver. I suggest women take it in the 30th potency (30C) three times daily for up to two days, and then repeat it 3-7 days later if the labor still has not begun. There are other homeopathic medicines that may be indicated at this stage in a pregnancy when labor is delayed, but they really do need to be determined by a professional homeopath who has the skill to work out the correct one. Here are some guidelines for those who wish to us homeopathic medicines safely during pregnancy. Only treat yourself for minor complaints that are recent i.e., mild morning sickness or constipation, a cold or flu, cramps, tiredness, heartburn or insomnia and so on. Chronic complaints (those that are recurring and/or deep-seated) should always be treated by a professional homeopath. Use low potencies (6X, 6C, 12X and 12C) as these are nice and gentle and therefore safe for you and your baby. Take the remedy for a short period of time and monitor the results carefully. The right remedy will work fairly quickly in an acute situation: - 6X--take three to four times a day for up to a week; - 6C and 12X--take two to three times daily for up to five days; - 12C--take once or twice daily for up to three days. Keep good notes. This is an important habit to develop with homeopathy and self prescribing. You will learn about yourself, your unique patterns of illness as well as which homeopathic medicines are helpful for you. It can be frustrating to be faced with a similar flu to the one you had two years ago and, for the life of you, you cannot remember which remedy you took, and it worked like a dream ...! You will need to record the name of the remedy and your reasons for choosing it, the potency as well as how long you took it ... and don't forget to make a note of how (and if!) it works. Monitor the effects of your remedy carefully and if it has definitely helped, you can repeat it if your symptoms return, but only if it helps! If your symptoms keep returning then the homeopathic medicine is only working superficially and you will need to seek the advice of a professional homeopath. Always check in with your health care provider to make sure your symptoms are not serious, especially if they are persistent, as some seemingly innocuous symptoms can be indications of a more serious situation developing. For example, itching in late pregnancy can be a sign of a more serious liver disorder (obstetric cholestasis) which can lead to premature labor, stillbirth and an increased risk of hemorrhage after delivery. My point is this, we need to question unnecessary medications or procedures in pregnancy and childbirth, whether they are allopathic, herbal or homeopathic. This is a perfect time to use common sense and "kitchen cupboard/closet" solutions that are known to be gentle and effective, rather than take anything that could have side effects. Caulophyllum can pave the way for a trouble-free childbirth if it is indicated, but if taken routinely, then it can cause an unpleasantly difficult labor. This is unusual but not impossible. If a homeopathic remedy is taken repeatedly when it is not needed, then proving symptoms may develop ... the symptoms that the homeopathic medicine is capable of curing ... in a person who is experiencing them. (For example, it is not unusual for small babies who are routinely given chamomile tea at bedtime to become irritable and sleepless.) Because homeopathic medicines are non-toxic, they are safe, especially in pregnancy, but it's sensible not to take something for every little complaint. Ask someone who knows--a mother or midwife--to come up with ideas before turning to medical alternatives. It makes sense to avoid unnecessary medications at any time in one's life, not just during pregnancy. If you use homeopathic medicines indiscriminately and with scant attention to the rules, you

P a g e | 367
may end up confused and disillusioned. Use them wisely and sensibly, and you will make a lasting relationship with a wonderful source of healing. Miranda Castro 2012 :: Sweet Dreams: A Good Night's Sleep in Pregnancy :: First published in Homeopathy Today Your Bed | Sweet Imaginings HOMEOPATHIC SUGGESTIONS General aches and pains | Restless legs| Emotional stress Physical Tension | Heartburn | Cramp | Stuffed-up nose | Itchy skin

A good night's sleep can leave us feeling refreshed, relaxed and good-humoured, and a bad night's sleep can wreck our day! Several nights of poor sleep can affect our health making us feels tired, irritable, tense and headachey as well as more vulnerable to infection. It can set up a vicious cycle of insomnia that can be hard to break. In early pregnancy most women find they need more sleep than normal (if they can get it!) and as the pregnancy progresses their energy returns. It is only in the last 3 months or so (depending on how big your baby is) that sleep may be harder to come by, especially deep, uninterrupted sleep. Minor physical complaints that can affect your sleep include heartburn, restless legs, cramps and having to get up goodness knows how many times to pee. Pregnant women with toddlers or small children may find that any extra night-time demands are the last straw. Any extra emotional stresses and those nine months can seem very long indeed. Good quality sleep is vital for our sense of well-being something that we may take for granted until we have problems getting it. Pace yourself at the kitchen/dining table Leave a couple of hours between dinner (or supper) and bedtime. Make it a light meal as rich, heavy food can aggravate heartburn or simply make it harder for you to fall asleep because it lies like an extra lump in your tummy. Eat a larger breakfast and lunch instead! Go easy on fluids with a meal or cut them outaltogether as they can bloat your stomach and make the heartburn worse. Cut down on your fluid intake in the evening if you are getting up at night to pee cut out all those drinks that make you pee more like tea, coffee, soft drinks and squashes. Make sure that you compensate by drinking more in the morning and afternoon, that you have plenty of fluids (generally) and plenty of calcium-rich foods to help prevent cramps dairy foods (go easy on these if you have a tendency to catarrh), figs, almonds, molasses, soya beans and spinach are all high in calcium.
to top Your bed

Make sure your mattress is suppportive and right for you some people like a hard surface such as a futon, others prefer a mattress with some give in it. If you mattress is too hard you will sleep restlessly and wake unrefreshed, if it is too soft you will get backache and wake unrefreshed! As women put on more weight and their 'bump' grows it becomes harder to get out of bed let

P a g e | 368

alone rolling over in bed at night and women who usually sleep on their tummies find it hard to adjust to a different sleeping position. Learn to sleep, or at least fall asleep, in the recovery position if you are waking with lower back ache in the morning. Learn it even if you aren't it's a brilliant position to sleep in especially towards the end of your pregnancy. Lie on your side with your underneath leg stretched out straight. Bend your upper leg so that your thigh is more or less at right angles to your body and place a pillow (or even two) under it. Roll your upper hip over a little more so that your bump is resting on the mattress, your lower back has its natural curve and your body feels relaxed. You may want another pillow under your upper arm. This is a lovely position to relax in at any time. If you are suffering from heartburn at night then you may want to raise the top of your bed a few inches(with a brick or two under the legs) so that your upper body is slightly raised. This will help with heartburn by preventing acid leaking out (into the oesophagus) at night, and it will also help if your nose is blocking up at night. (You may need to raise the bottom of the bed if you are suffering with varicose veins or swollen legs.) Above all, make your bed an island of peace that you look forward to going to each night. Don't take work to bed with you, or read things in bed that are going to upset or frighten you. RELAX! Develop a bedtime routine for yourself, one that includes some relaxing activities: - move your body if you have been sitting down for all or most of the evening, to release some of the tension from your muscles. Take a short walk, put some favourite music on and dance, walk or run up and down your stairs (carefully) until you feel energized. - sink into a warm bath and soak for 15 minutes or so (unless you find that it wakes you up). Put something delicious and smelly in it: lavender oil is wonderfully relaxing, use 4-6 drops of the essential oil. - have a hot (caffeine-free) drink such as hot milk with honey or a cup of herbal tea. Chamomile is good if you find it difficult to get to sleep, or try one of the herbal mixtures such as Sleepytime. - yoga is particularly good for pregnant women and those gentle stretching postures and deep breathing are an excellent way to relax physical tension at any time of day and especially before going to bed at night. There are many yoga classes now that are designed specially for pregnant women.
to top Sweet Imaginings/Comfy in body and mind

When you turn out the light and lie down close your eyes and scan your body. Is it tense? Where? Get yourself comfortable and then relax your muscles one by one starting at your head and moving slowly down your body. If you find a muscle or an area that won't relax then tense it as hard as you can and then let it go gently you will find that it will relax more easily. Then check out your breathing. Let it become deeper and more even. Let the busy-ness of your day and any persistant thoughts trickle out of your mind. Now imagine yourself in a happy, peaceful place. It may be one you have been to or one you

P a g e | 369

have seen in a photograph or holiday brochure. Or make one up. It could be a tropical beach, a peaceful lake, a mountain stream, a beautiful garden. Be creative, follow your imagination, and have a good look around.Try and smell the flowers, hear the birds sing, feel the earth or sand under your feet. You may want to play in the water or climb a tree! When you are ready (finished exploring) find a place to lie down and spend some time soaking up the sun (in your mind!). As you sink into the warm sand or soft grass, let your body to become heavier and heavier and let it sink into the bed. Many people fall into a deep sleep at this point (or even before it!). Don't worry if you don't fall asleep straight away you (and your body/baby) can enjoy the sense of relaxation as you find other ways to fall asleep. Some people like to repeat a (short) beautiful poem or prayer over and over as they have found it to be more meaningful (and interesting) than counting sheep! Or you can count backwards from 600. Or you review your day try going through it backwards starting from bedtime. Many people find they fall asleep well before get to where they woke up that morning.

::Sex in Pregnancy: The Good News!:: Where did the sex go? |What to do? | Don'ts Partners can go off sex too| Homeopathic Treatment

Many couples grow closer during their pregnancy, and are able to express tenderness, affection and love easily, especially if the baby is planned and everything goes smoothly. Some women feel wonderfully sensual when pregnant, they love feeling rounded and full and womanly, and enjoy not having to worry about contraception. Their partners find them sexy too and many couples enjoy a more spontaneous sex life especially with a first baby when there aren't other small persons liable to wake in the middle of the night and want attention! Sex, especially active sex, is an undervalued form of physical exercise it is physically energizing, and especially good exercise for the pelvic-floor muscles. At the end of the day making love can

P a g e | 371

be relaxing and sleep-promoting. And it is perfectly safe. You cannot harm the baby while making love: the uterus thoughtfully moves up and out of the way when you are sexually aroused. Also, the hormones in semen that help the cervix to soften and dilate in early labour will only have that effect when you are in labour.
Where did the sex go?

It isn't uncommon for one or bother partners to go off sex in pregnancy for a variety of reasons. Identifying the cause of your loss of interest will help you deal with it. Use the following to help you work out what is bothering you. Sheer exhaustion must be the number one reason why women go off sex in pregnancy. It can be arduous to carry a baby to term. The physical (especially hormonal) and emotional changes are numerous and stressful. Pregnant women with one or more small children to care for and/or a job will find sex the last thing on their minds as they collapse into bed at night. Having enough rest and sleep can be a complicated juggling act when, for example, your other child is sick and waking at night, or you have a work deadline to meet. Physical complaints such as morning sickness, heartburn, hip pain, constipation, varicose veins of the genitals/vulva (this is not uncommon in late pregnancy), can all make intercourse uncomfortable, or even downright painful. Some women find it difficult getting used to a constantly expanding body, they feel fat and unattractive, or even ugly and have difficulty believing their partners could find them desirable. Taboos against sex during pregnancy are sometimes passed on from mothers or grandmothers to their children or grandchildren. Many women struggle to come to terms with the belief that mothers or mothers-to-be can be sexy ... because as children associating one's own mother with sex may have been difficult or even impossible! Your partner may associate affection with sex and you feel you can't be affectionate because it always leads to his wanting sex when this isn't always what you want. This can cause some women to withdraw their affection and their love, and leads to a rift in the relationship. Major stresses are demanding: a move, the death of someone close to you, worries about your other children or step children, sick relatives, job or money difficulties. These situations can create emotional distress that can cause women to become withdrawn as they deal with the bare necessities of getting through each day. Unexpressed feelings are the cause of many women and men withdrawing emotionally, and then sexually. There may be emotional difficulties in the relationship which become aggravated with

P a g e | 372

the additional stress of pregnancy. Pain during intercourse is extremely off-putting. It is not uncommon in pregnancy and can be caused by the cervix or even the vagina and uterus itself becoming more sensitive than usual. This is a time to try different positions ... there are several that can be enjoyable without discomfort (see diagrammes). Don't feel guilty if you don't want penetrative sex, or scared if you experience discomfort in any position. There are other ways to give each other pleasure, this is a great time to experiment with non-penetrative sex: masturbation won't make you blind and neither will oral sex.
What to do?

Don't forget this is the one job you have taken on for which you may have had no prior training, no experience and for which they may be relatively little support and no pay!!! It isn't unreasonable to feel concerned and anxious about the task ahead, those feelings can affect you in your pregnancy and are best dealt with as and when they surface, rather than waiting for a pile up to occur. Talk with your partner about why you think you have gone off sex. It's essential that you communicate honestly and openly with each other about your feelings, especially around your sexual feelings. Say what it is you need now: patience, love, understanding, wooing ... whatever. Express any resentments and ask for your partner's support and understanding. Some couples find that a good row clears the air, deals with any build up of tension and paves the way to a return of those old sexy feelings. Find ways of being close to your partner without it necessarily leading to sex. It is an important part of growing up and of parenthood that we learn to separate affection from sex and sex from penetration. Ask your midwife or physician for reassurance and help about any physical discomforts or complaints you may be experiencing if you think that your loss of interest in sex is because you aren't as well as you could be. Your local homeopathic practitioner will be able to prescribe on any physical or emotional complaints. Homeopathic medicines stimulate your body gently to heal itself, and are especially suitable for pregnant women because they do not have side effects and are therefore safe for your unborn child. Seek the advice of a counselor or a psychotherapist if you having difficulty adjusting to pregnancy, to your changing body and especially if the whole idea of parenthood scares you. Or if the stresses in your life are overwhelming, and especially if you have become depressed as a result. Seek the advice of a marriage guidance counselor who is trained to work with emotional and sexual difficulties if you find that you can't talk to your partner about the sexual difficulties you are experiencing, or if anger and resentment are causing your relationship to suffer.

P a g e | 373
Partners can go off sex too

Some partners find their pregnant woman incredibly sex and others quite the opposite. Many men equate pregnancy with motherhood with their own mothers, and the taboo against finding their own mother sexy is projected on to their partner. When this happens, women can feel rejected on a deep level and this can affect the relationship if it isn't discussed openly. Anxieties about the responsibilities ahead, about money, about losing the closeness of their loved one. Jealousy and envy, and a complex array of confusing feelings can make men feel like they wish they were single and free again. These are a normal part and parcel of the package deal that is parenthood. Part of letting go of one phase of our lives in order to move on to the next. Some kick and scream more than others! Don't sweep them under the carpet, they need talking through with someone who understands what is happening.
Where did the Romance go? Steps to Intimacy that Work

1. Familiarize yourself with your changing body. Look at yourself in the mirror after a bath or shower. Give yourself a massage with body oil, cream or lotion and pay special attention to your abdomen and breasts. Any cream that has vitamin E in it will help your body to expand more easily without making stretch marks. 2. Talk about the changes in your body with your partner, and how you feel about them. 3. Ask your partner to massage you and talk about which parts are more or less sensitive than usual. Be specific about how you would like to be touched. 4. Encourage your partner to share his feelings too. 5. Make time for each other. See it as a capital investment ... your relationship really is worth it. It is all too easy to leave behind the things you both did together when you were single, once parenthood looms. If you don't make an effort to do this now it will become increasingly difficult once the baby comes along. 6. There is nothing sexier than romance! Make an effort to do those things that gave each other pleasure before you became pregnant: notes, flowers, gifts. Be creative, plan little surprises. A candlelit dinner for two in the bath! 7. Explore the pleasures of sensuality ... a shared bath (if it is big enough!), breakfast in bed, plenty of hugs and kisses and sweet nothings whispered in each others ears... 8. Don't forget about foreplay. You may find it more important now that you are pregnant. Many couples adopt a slower, gentler pace of lovemaking than perhaps they were used to before their pregnancy. 9. Tell each other every day how much you like, love and appreciate the other.

P a g e | 374

Don'ts

Sex/love-making (with penetration) should be avoided if: - you experience pain no matter what position you try - you are bleeding, even if it is only spotting - you have a history of miscarriage and want to play safe, especially in your early pregnancy - your waters have broken in late pregnancy/early labour, as there is a risk of infection
Homeopathic Treatment

The following remedies will help you to recover your libido if they are indicated, i.e. if their whole picture matches yours. If you are experiencing, say, bad cramps, depression and a loss of libido then Causticum will help both you and your sex drive. If you are depressed and irritable, want to be alone, feel nauseous and have lost your appetite as well as your sex drive then Sepia may be the remedy for you. There are many other homeopathic medicines for women who have become stressed and withdrawn in pregnancy. If the following pictures do not fit with what you are going through then you will need to check in with your local homeopathic practitioner.
Causticum

This is for chilly people who hate the cold and drafts but feel better in the mild, wet weather. They lose their appetite when pregnant and go off sweets and sweet things. They become more sensitive than usual to nearly everything. And sentimental, crying easily over the slightest thing even the Andrex ad can set them off. Emotional stresses that involve worrying about others close to them affect them a lot. They lose interest in sex and typically suffer from exhaustion and restless legs (in the evening), indigestion, joint pains (which are better for the warmth of bed), cramps (at night in the feet, toes or soles), indigestion (with burps that taste of the food they ate) and stress incontinence (from coughing, sneezing, laughing or walking).
Natrum muriaticum

These people dislike the heat, especially the direct heat of the sun and stuffy rooms. They become dry and thirsty in pregnancy and suffer typically from cold sores (on the lips or around the mouth), back pain, exhaustion (in the evening), constipation with piles (which bleed), heartburn and stress incontinence. This remedy is for people who are naturally reserved, who find the attention they attract when pregnant difficult to handle and who may withdraw emotionally as a result. They become more sensitive when pregnant and vulnerable to emotional upsets. They hold on to these hurts and become sad and bitter. They go off sex and become more and more introverted.
Sepia

This is for chilly women who become quickly exhausted and run down in their pregnancy. They are vulnerable to the physical stress of pregnancy, losing their muscle tone and suffering from a variety of physical symptoms including back pain (an aching, dragging down pain in the lower back), constipation (with straining and large, hard stools), nausea (with vomiting and gnawing pains which are temporarily relieved while eating). Unusually, they are much better for some vigorous exercise such as running or dancing. This energizes them (although they won't feel like it and may have to force themselves to do it.) Eating helps them temporarily. They look pale and

drawn with dark circles under their eyes. They can become depressed and want to be alone, reacting with spiteful comments if anyone tries to get too close. They can become indifferent to their loved ones, snapping at them for the slightest little thing.
Staphysagria

This remedy is for women who become resentful having been hurt and not expressing the angry feelings. They become exhausted, anaemic and irritable. They brood and fume inside, while appearing OK. This can turn into an active resentment. They withdraw emotionally and then physically and sexually. Or, they can erupt in a temper tantrum when they will end up in trembling and crying. Sex is painful sometimes because of a build up of tension (through unexpressed resentments/hurts).

Labor and Delivery With Homoeopathy

Posted by Dr Ravindra Saraswat on June 8, 2011 at 11:38pm in Homeopathy-for-Women View Discussions

Childbirth is not a disease. It is a normal progression of actions of the body to deliver a baby into this world. Because it is a process, there is plenty that can go wrong and affect the health of the mother and child. Homeopathy can help the process along and help preserve good health of the mother and child. Labor is a series of rythmic, progressive contractions of the uterus that gradually moves the fetus through the lower part of the uterus, through the vagina and into the outside world. It is truly a manifestation of the miracle of creation. This process happens in three stages. The first stage begins with the onset of contractions that cause progressive changes in your cervix and ends when your cervix is fully dilated. This stage is divided into two phases: early (or latent) and active labor. During early labor, your cervix gradually effaces (thins out) and dilates (opens). During active labor, your cervix begins to dilate more rapidly and contractions are longer, stronger, and closer together. People often refer to the last part of active labor as "transition." The second stage of labor begins once you're fully dilated and ends with the birth of your baby. This is sometimes referred to as the "pushing" stage. The third and final stage begins right after the birth of your baby and ends with the separation and subsequent delivery of the placenta. Every pregnancy is different, and there's wide variation in the length of labor. For first-time moms who are at least 37 weeks along, labor often takes between ten and 20 hours. For some women, though, it lasts much longer, while for others it's over much sooner. Homeopathy can help with nearly every problem associated with childbirth. But if complications happen it is imperitive to get the mother professional help immediately. Some common problems include pre-term contractions, labor that does not progress or progresses too quickly, abnormal position of the fetus, excessive pain during labor and delivery, breathing problems for the newborn, hemhorrage during delivery and retention of the placenta. In a hospital setting there can be monitering of the mother and child that can determine stress or problems. But for the sake of this brief article I will not go into all of the medical possibilities.

Remedies that can be helpful during labor and chilbirth with their most common indications are;

Aconite Pains unnaturally violent and frequent. Anxious and fearly. Sure she will die. Cannot bear the pain. Arnica Probably the most useful single remedy. Great discomfort. Bruised, sore feeling. Great for hemorrhage and after pains. Trermbling and agitation. One dose of Arnica 30C after delivery often times prevent post-partum hemhorrage. Belladonna Pains come and go suddenly with bearing down. Cervix does not dialate on account of the spasmodic action of the neck of the uterus. Cervis is rigid, thin, tender and hot.

This list of remedies and their indications is by no means complete. Study all of the remedies listed in the rubrics above. There are many more rubrics that deal with more specific symptoms. Studying a good repertory and materia medica before the actual birth is a very good idea. Conditions of childbirth can change quickly and it may be necessary to apply many remedies in succession. During the emergency is not the time to be studying the repertory and finding remedies. Be prepared. Have remedies in the 30C and 200C potencies available. It does no good

to attend a birth and not be prepared. One needs to have a good selection of remedies available. The wonderful thing about childbirth is that it can be planned. Knowing the approximate date the child is due gives time to prepare. This is the most wonderful and beautiful use of homeopathy. A successful and easy birth that brings a healthy child into the world is one of lifes most treasured moments.
