I've made mention of alternative cure for cancer, called 4 herb tea. Also known as Essiac. I've been into Natural healing my whole life. I've worked with essential oils. vitamins, and herbs. I thought maybe some people here could share some their own experiences so we can all benifit from the knowledge.
K. For anyone living in the Southwest, If you've ever heard of a cresote bush. It's highly medicanal. You can cure althetes feet with it over night, I meen , no more red skin. My kids got it bad when we moved there. I stripped the leaves off and boiled them. After they soaked it was amazing. They had no pain, or redness the next day, and healed with just that one apllication.
The southwest desert and surrounding areas are full of medicinal plants. A great book if you live in thiose areas are "Medicinal plants of the desert west" Michael Moore

I have absolutely no doubt that there are healing properties in herbs. They have been around alot longer than Western Medicine. However, controlling the dosage could be an issue. Some of those beneficial herbs can be deadly if the dosage isn't controlled. Alot of the drugs used today do come from herbs or extracts, like the drug digitalis comes from foxglove flower.
I used herbs for my animals for ages just because they were vegetarians. I actually grew comfrey in my garden for the bunnies. Also, used many other things I found in the ground and to boost their immune systems during the show season, I always had fresh parsley on hand.
When I was dealing with grieving along with my cocker spaniels, I was desparate for healing. I actually used a mixture of several Bach Flower essences in our water. To a certain extent, it did take the edge off and I didn't have to listen to my doctor when he wanted me to go on antidepressants. Taking a pill won't fix everything in life.
I'm not so much into herbal remedies as I am in healing energies. Our bodies do have an energy field around it and that's where I direct my healing efforts, in the energy fields, to balance the chakras. Depending on where I live, I sometimes will incorporate Reiki in my work. I just won't jeopordize my license, so I'm cautious but I have had much positive experience with the care I provide to others.
That's still aternative healing, which is great. the dosage, is easily checked on line, just check toxic levels of whatever, I researched alot before trying. But I've had excellent benefits from all I've used.
Another I just posted, for those that are having problem sleeping, Use a combination of kava kava, valerian root, and hops, you will sleep just fine. and without drugs!
Nose bleeds. If you know anyone prone to nose bleeds, place a drop or two of vinegar in the opposite ear of what ever side is bleeding, or both if it's both sides, this works, My son had it bad as a kid. After a while the vinegar didn't work as well, so we used a homepathic remedy made from the venom of a bushmaster snake, that worked to the point where he quit having them.

Into herbal remedies big time and have used them for a number of years now. I first saw a naturopathic doc when I had trouble with my stomach...um....10 yrs ago. He did irridology and I went home with a bag of stuff...thought this stuff better work at the cost of it all. Within 6 months I was like a new person. I did a lot of reading. I swear by Goldenseal when I get a bad cold. I have taken 5 flower remedy to sleep...calandular (marigolds) is a good astringint....damiana ....theres an interesting herb.... anyway....its all good stuff......
Yes Damiana is cool. The cost for homeapthic is cheap, like 6 bucks. Finding a supplier that has what you need is the problem. We used to order right from the manufacturer. I can say that every homepathic remedy we have tried work perfectly.
If you are in a climate that you can grow your own hops, I strongly suggest, It requires damp/moist areas. I tricked it into growing in the desert by hiding it behinda brick wall. The hops were big. I'd dry them out, eat about four or five, and I'd be snoozing in no time.
To suggest "alternative medicine" and promote teas as "cure" for cancer and to potentially keep seriously ill people from seeking proper treatment is outrageously irresponsible.
You have already proven yourself offensive, Agin, this post is about people sharing there experiences with natural healing, Heres the topic again.
"I've made mention of alternative cure for cancer, called 4 herb tea. Also known as Essiac. I've been into Natural healing my whole life. I've worked with essential oils. vitamins, and herbs.

So if you have nothing to share, then please get educated on this topic of "Herbal remedies, and natural healing"
I did share. I shared that it's a dangerous game with people's lives. As someone who actually knows anything about this topic I don't want people falling for charlatanry. It is my moral duty as scientist. So you can talk about "opinions" and "getting educated" all night long. I already gave you answers for that many time but you fail to recognize them. If you're such an expert, why don't you explain to me how exactly does this tea cure cancer? So far, I've only heard your opinion about it. If you don't have any scientific proof to share, then educate yourself on real medicine. Oh look, it works both ways.
