It has a stronger action than hydrocortisone, according to research studies conducted between 1971 and 1991. Curcumin: When applied to the skin and exposed to sunlight, turmeric is strongly antibacterial. Curcumin is the constituent responsible for this action. Curcumin is also more strongly antioxidant than vitamin E. Cholesterol: Chinese clinical trials in 1987 indicate that turmeric lowers cholesterol levels. Cancer: Turmeric may be a valuable preventive remedy for those at risk of developing cancer. But more research is needed. Other actions: Research has shown that turmeric has an anticoagulant action, keeping the blood thin. It also increases bile production and flow and has a protective action on the stomach and liver.

History: In feudal Russia, the serfs noticed that travelers sewed plantain seeds and recited prayers in order to bring good to the herbs growth. Because traveling was a dangerous endeavor in those days, Russian serfs regarded readily available food from the nature God’s gift to travelers. Plantain is known for its tenacity and ability to thrive in disturbed soil, allowing the rapid proliferation of the herb rapidly in colonized lands. When European settlers brought the plant to the Americas, the Indigenous people noticed that wherever the Europeans went that plantain would sprout there.

St. John’s wort has an ancient reputation for warding off witchcraft which may be due to the plant’s wide range of medicinal uses. RESEARCH: Depression: Clinical research from the 1970s onward has established that St. John’s wort is an effective antidepressant. In a recent study in Austria 67% of patients with mild to moderate depression improved when given an extract of the herb. Hypericin: Hypericin has a marked antiviral activity. It (and to a much lesser extent, the whole herb) appears to act against enveloped viruses, e.g. herpes viruses and HIV, as well as hepatitis B and C. in controlled studies, the hypericins relieved symptoms of anxiety and depression in women probably through a process of monoamineoxidase inhibition. Safety: St. John’s wort is a very safe medicine. However, the herb does interact with many conventional medicines, reducing their effectiveness and potentially causing serious health problems. Those taking prescribed medication should consult their medical or herbal practitioner before taking St. John’s wort.

This constituent increases the liver enzyme levels in the body. Therefore, alcoholics and those with liver disease or chronic conditions that leads to liver disease should avoid taking comfrey. Also, for healthy individuals taking comfrey, be sure to monitor your liver enzyme levels through your regular blood tests that you get from the doctors office. Since comfrey absorbs easily through the skin, wearing gloves when applying the ointment, cream or poultice is preferable. Because of its rapid healing properties, comfrey must not be used on dirty wounds because, the rapid healing with trap the dirt leading to pus/abscess. Do not use if pregnant or breastfeeding. Avoid excess consumption. USE FOR AT LEAST 6 WEEKS AND NOT MORE THAN THAT! As for internally use, I have had good experience using the Russian comfrey (Symphytum x uplandicum) internally, for 6 weeks, with no incident. If you decide to use this particular species, be sure that the herbalist or the person behind the counter gives you this brand. There is another species known as Common comfrey (Symphytum x officinale) which should be used only topically and can be easily confused for the Russian comfrey. If your liver is congested and weak, the fresh mature leaves can be used in place of the fresh, young ones. https://www.sandysmedicinals.com/irish-sea-moss-seaweed-version-of-stinging-nettle daily 0.75 2020-10-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f553c7b4382891a490b85c0/1602205215697-48AAKFJVVPZZ4TYQRBFN/4164ABFD-6E0A-4A9E-924D-A9638AA66B62.JPG Irish Sea Moss- Seaweed version of Stinging Nettle - Monograph Botanical Name: Chondrus crispus Common Name: Carragheen Family Name: Rhodophyta, Gigartinaceae Plant Parts Used: Dried thallus (young shoots).

As a warming stimulant, cayenne is a valuable remedy for poor circulation, improving blood flow to the hands and feet and to the central organs. Applied to the skin, capsaicin desensitizes nerve endings and acts as a counter irritant, stimulating blood flow. This is due to its rubefacient characteristic- increased blood flow to the affected part, and this helps to stimulate circulation in cold rheumatic and arthritic conditions. In turn, this aids in the removal of waste products and increases the flow of nutrients to the tissues. Externally, cayenne pepper is used in ointment, liniments, and plasters to treat muscular pains, arthritis, rheumatic pains, psoriasis, headache, neuralgia, lumbago, and unbroken chilblains (use in moderation). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f553c7b4382891a490b85c0/1600287075640-FJ3E6RT8UYK7TGS0YF9V/image-asset.jpeg Cayenne Pepper- Muy Caliente, and Loving it! - Related Species & More Information Related Species: The genus Capsicum includes red and green chilies, cayenne, paprika, and bell peppers. Many closely related species and varieties of C. frutescens exist, all with different grades of pungency. Paprika or Hungarian pepper (one of the mildest peppers), and the large green and red peppers that are eaten as vegetables are both varieties of C. annuum and are important medicinal foods. More Information: Just drop by any organic foods store and ask for the organic cayenne pepper. The organic one is reddish orange in color, not dark red (that one is not organic and is probably less than 80,000 units in strength). You want the organic, SUPER HOT one that is at least above 80,000 units. I say 80,000 units because that was what the legendary herbalist, Dr John Christopher started out with. There are lesser strength units out here, but I recommend starting with 80,000 units if you want to see results. And please, take your time ingesting the cayenne/honey paste; just ingest it with a spoon and enjoy with any tea of your choice; preferably herbal tea.

It stimulates the kidneys to remove toxins in the urine and encourages steady elimination of toxins due to pollution or infections. For the liver, dandelion has the capacity to clear obstructions and stimulate and aid the liver to eliminate toxins from the blood. This makes dandelion a blood purifying herb particularly due to it high mineral content. Dandelion leaves are a very powerful diuretic and one of the most natural sources of potassium. The diuretic power is comparable to Furosemide but unlike Furosemide, dandelion does not leach potassium from the body. This makes this herb ideal for water retention due to heart problems as well as decreasing blood pressure. Additionally, its high nutritive minerals are helpful in treating anemia. The seeds is also an excellent form of food for explorers and adventurers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f553c7b4382891a490b85c0/1600197699898-OS2SZUNCHBI9R5RQ00VX/image-asset.jpeg Dandelion- A Poor Man's Diuretic - What else can dandelion do? Dandelion is beneficial for many conditions such as acne, eczema, psoriasis. As part of a wider treatment for arthritic conditions like osteoarthritis and gout as well as muscular rheumatism, dandelion root and leaves are most effective. Again, this happens through the cleansing of the blood and the bodily tissues. A tonic salad made with dandelion leaves can be eaten regularly for its cleansing benefits. The young dandelion leaves can be eaten fresh as steam pot-herb. With chicory and endive greens, it provides a pleasant source of mild vegetables bitter necessary for balance nutrition. Roasted dandelion root makes a pleasant beverage especially as a suitable coffee substitute which can be consumed daily.
