So, I wanted to share with you a 22 minute video about Swine Flu: http://vimeo.com/6423968
Remember for preventative measures use Garlic. If you get it, up the dose of Garlic.
Then I wanted to share the simpliest of God's wisdom in regards to foods.
EAT LOTS OF SWEET POTATOES
It's been said that God first separated the salt water from the fresh, made dry land, planted a garden, made animals and fish... All before making a human. He made and provided what we'd need before we were born. These are best & more powerful when eaten raw. We're such slow learners...
God left us a great clue as to what foods help what part of our body!
God's Pharmacy! Amazing!
A sliced Carrot looks like the human eye. The pupil, iris and radiating lines look just like the human eye... And YES, science now shows carrots greatly enhance blood flow to and function of the eyes.
A Tomato has four chambers and is red. The heart has four chambers and is red. All of the research shows tomatoes are loaded with lycopine and are indeed pure heart and blood food.
Grapes hang in a cluster that has the shape of the heart. Each grape looks like a blood cell and all of the research today shows grapes are also profound heart and blood vitalizing food.
A Walnut looks like a little brain, a left and right hemisphere, upper cerebrums and lower cerebellums. Even the wrinkles or folds on the nut are just like the neo-cortex. We now know walnuts help develop more than three (3) dozen neuron-transmitters for brain function.
Kidney Beans actually heal and help maintain kidney function and yes, they look exactly like the human kidneys.
Celery, Bok Choy, Rhubarb and many more look just like bones. These foods specifically target bone strength. Bones are 23% sodium and these foods are 23% sodium. If you don't have enough sodium in your diet, the body pulls it from the bones, thus making them weak. These foods replenish the skeletal needs of the body.
Avocadoes, Eggplant and Pears target the health and function of the womb and cervix of the female - they look just like these organs. Today's research shows that when a woman eats one avocado a week, it balances hormones, sheds unwanted birth weight, and prevents cervical cancers. And how profound is this? It takes exactly nine (9) months to grow an avocado from blossom to ripened fruit. There are over 14,000 photolytic chemical constituents of nutrition in each one of these foods (modern science has only studied and named about 141 of them).
Figs are full of seeds and hang in twos when they grow. Figs increase the mobility of male sperm and increase the numbers of Sperm as well to overcome male sterility.
Sweet Potatoes look like the pancreas and actually balance the glycemic index of diabetics.
Olives assist the health and function of the ovaries
Oranges, Grapefruits, and other Citrus fruits look just like the mammary glands of the female and actually assist the health of the breasts and the movement of lymph in and out of the breasts.
Onions look like the body's cells. Today's research shows onions help clear waste materials from all of the body cells. They even produce tears which wash the epithelial layers of the eyes. A working companion, Garlic, also helps eliminate waste materials and dangerous free radicals from the body.
Have a Happy Halloween and May the Lord continue to bless you with Health.

Life is amazingly busy and there is so much to remember. So, this month I could like to share a few of the herbs that help improve brain function (a.k.a. The Brain Herbs). The four that I want to talk about are the herbs that I used in my formula assignment for the School of Natual Healing. They are: Ginseng, Skullcap, Ginkgo Biloba, and Chamomile. Now while Chamomile is not specifically a brain herb, there is a reason for it and I will discuss that when I talk about it.
Ginseng (Panax quinquefolius) is an adaptogen which means that it helps the body regulate or bring back to balance the health of the body. It is good as an energy booster as well. The chinese use it to balance "qi" and effect the "yang" so balance would return. Because of the type of herb that it is, it can be a great advocate in helping balance the health of any part of the body. For the sake of the formula, I combined it with the nervine herb Skullcap. This was to help guide the ginseng to where it was needed.
Skullcap (Scutellaria lateriflora) is one of the best nervines. It helps to, either, calm or stimulate the nerves as is needed. It works on the Sympathetic nervous system (the spine and the nerves that control the involuntary muscle movements) as well as the blood vessels and brain. It is calming and has a similar effect to Quinine, except there are no harmful side effects or after effects. It is helpful in calming down nervous twitches, spasms, restlessness, as well as claming emotional tentions and the physical problems that can result from them. Skullcap is also nutrient rich, so the nerves are supplied with the materials they need for better functioning (tones). Dr Shook said about Skullcap: "Skullcap is a slow working, but sure remedy for practically all nervous afflictions, but it must be taken regularly for a long period of time to be of permanent benefit."
Ginkgo Biloba (Ginkgo biloba) is used as a memory enhancer. It has flavanoids as well as other natual chemicals that help fight Alzhiemer's disease as well as Dementia and Vertigo. This herb also helps with blood flow so it can move needed chemicals over the blood/brain barrier. (Much safer than anti-depressants that can do the same thing). However, if one is taking anti-depressants it is recommended that you consult with your doctor before using it. Ginkgo also has flavanoids which helps in the nutrition area as well.
Chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla) is also a nervine, but it has a calming effect. So, if the nerves are over stimulated, then they are brought back to a normal active state. This also helps to balance out the use of the chemicals that the body needs. In addition to it's help with nerves, it can help calm other disorders, such as: Cramps, Ulcers, lung diseases, fevers, pain and swelling, bruises, sprains, etc.
The formula I used was 1 part of each in powdered form (1 part = 1oz of weight) when combined it is very helpful is clearing up mental clouds and forgetfulness. It has to be taken for a few weeks before a change is noticed.
Good luck with all you endevor to do this month. Happy Labor Day!

Herb Corner Issue 20
These and many other thoughts have run through my head as I have prepared to continue my education in another state. The stress has been great at times, the anxiety painful, and the bumps plentiful. Yet there have been many helpful and simple things that have helped relieve much of that stress. They are:
1) Deep breathing for 5 minutes. - If you don't have five minutes, then just take a few breaths that expand your stomach and fill your lungs so your chest rises. Then release it with an audible sigh.
2) Gratitude prayers - when working through all that needs to happen with preparation, you find that as you give thanks for the blessings you have seen, you will soon see that there is even more to be thankful for, for He will always be there to help you and guide you.
3)Increased Nutrition and water intake - Green drinks, wheat grass shots, and more fruits and vegetables are very beneficial. They provide nutrients to combat the damage that stress can cause in the body. Also, drinking enough water helps to flush out toxins that add to the feelings of stress.
4) "Grounding" - This is simply shuffling your bare feet in the grass for 5-20 minutes (whatever you have time for). This causes the static electricity in the body (that has been used up) to leave and give space for positive energy to enter through the crown of the head. (After doing this for a while, you should feel really good, relaxed, and clear headed) I love it!
5) Hugs - Four hugs a day can keep the blues away.
And...
6) Laughing - This produces endorphins that elevate mood and moves the lymph in the body to keep the immune system working correctly.
The following quote is from a book and I thought it fit. Hope you enjoy:
“And really, why shouldn’t we be afraid? In case you haven’t heard, life is terminal. Cigarettes will kill you. So, will your cell phone. Your microwave, the power lines, the squirming germs that raw meat leaves behind on your kitchen counter and the chemical cleansers you neutralize them with… all potentially lethal. Your car is a deadly weapon, alcohol a quite killer. Too much fat, too much sugar, too much exercise or not enough… Don’t lick the lead-based paint on your window sills, don’t lick the back of that postage stamp, and don’t lick any strangers, oh, that can take you down quickly, indeed! Don’t drink the water and don’t drink less than eight glasses a day. Hold your breath in traffic, off-gas your furniture, stock up on duck tape! Don’t talk to strangers, and if you’re female, don’t go home- you’re more likely to be a victim of domestic violence than of burglary, mugging, or any other type of physical assault combined. Your environment is toxic, your natural resources are dwindling, your days are numbered, but whatever you do, don’t panic! The stress, don’t you know, will kill ya.”
-The Scarecrow “Batman: Rise of Sin Tzu, pg. 62-63”
Good night to all. Good luck in all of your endevours. Until next month,

Slippery elm (Ulmus fulva) is a medium-sized tree native to North America. It can reach well over 50 feet in height and is topped by spreading branches that form an open crown. The red-brown or orange branches grow downward, and the stalkless flowers are arranged in dense clusters. The plant's leaves are long and green, darkening in color during the fall. The bark has deep fissures, a gummy texture, and a slight but distinct odor.
The bark from this tree is what is used. It is mostly found in powdered form. But it can also be found in capsules. Slippery elm contains mucilage which turns into a slick gel-like substnace when it gets wet. This allows it to coat the walls of the mouth, throat, stomach, and intestines. It also has a soothing effect. It can be used externally as a poultice to help with wounds, boils, burns, and skin inflammations.
Taken internally is can help with ulcers, coughs, sore throats, other stomach problems, and bowel problems (such as chron's disease, diahrrea, and IBS). Ways that it can be taken is in the capsules, as a tea, or it can be made into a greul. This gruel is made by slowly adding water to slipprey elm bark powder. If a lot of water is added it just pools and doesn't mix very well. It can be given to babies as a food when they are weaning or given to the eldery.
A modern miracle with Slippery elm began on October 30, 1838. This is the day of the Haun's Mill Massacre. Little Alma Smith had his hip blown off from the musket fire. His mother was prompted to use the bark from the slippery elm tree as a poultice for the wound. After cleaning it with lye soap, she made the slippery elm bark poultice and put it in the wound. For a period of five weeks this seven year old boy lay on his face until a flexible gristle had formed that became the beginnings of his new hip.
Wishing you all a Happy Fourth of July and a Good Pioneer's Day

To all the Father's out there: Happy Father's Day! Here are the last four cell salts.
Calcium Sulphate (Calc Sulf) is used for infections, pus and general toxicity. It works to detoxify the body, improve digestion, as well as finish and clean up Chronic Infections. The main function of Calc Sulf is skin and tissue support. Six other uses for Calc Sulf include: Acne, Hang Nails, Burns, Itching Feet, Cradle Cap, and Sore Throat.
Potassium Phosphate (Kali Phos) helps the nerves and the grey matter of the brain. When nreves get depleted by stress it can cause sleeplessness or depression. Mainly it is the Central Nervous System that is affected by Kali Phos. Some of the emotional indicators that Kali Phos needs to be used are: Depression, Hysteria, Nervousness, Fear, and Anxiety. Six more uses for Kali Phos are: Asthma, Heart Palpitations, Bad Breath, Dry Mouth, Eplilepsy, and Whooping Cough.
Sodium Phosphate (Nat Phos) governs the acid balance in the body. The body should have the balance of 70% alkalinity and 30% acidity. Alkalinity equals health. Over-acid conditions allow diseases to come. The closer one is to the 70/30 balance the healthier they are. Some signs of an over-acid condition are: Sour Body Smell, Parasites, Sour Smelling Discharges, and Candida or Vaginal Infections. Six ailments that Nat Phos can be used for include: Ance, Hives, Itching, Ph Imbalances, Yellow Creamy Discharges, and Vomiting of Sour Fluids,
Sodium Sulphate (Nat Sulf) is responsible for liver health and head injuries where one has become depressed and irritable. It is also responsible for helping the body rid itself of excess water. Six other uses are: Alcoholism, Coughing, Loose/Huge stools, Bloating, Swelling, or if one is Suicidal.
Wish you all a wonderful beginning to summer!

Here are the next four cell salts and a suggestion for prevention of the swine flu.
Calcium Phosphate (Calc Phos) helps with calcium metabolism. When the metabolism is disrupted it can cause osteoporosis or bone spurs. It can be an aid in teeth and digestive problems, but works mainly with bone tissue. Other uses for Calc Phos include: Eczema, Gout, Infections, Smoking, and Worms.
Potassium Sluphate (Kali Sulf) is specific for the third stage or inflammation. This is the stage where infection (pus) or boils appear. When there is a lack of this cell salt there are usually yellow discharges. It is recommended for high fevers, when the body is working to get the bacteria to multiply faster to eat the toxic substances that are making the body sick. (The are the garbage men, let them take out the trash. Don't stop them from doing there job.) However, the main funtion for Kali Sulf is the making and distributing of oil. Other things it can be used for are: Age spots, Arthritis, Deafness, Scarlet Fever, Vitiligo, and Wandering Pains.
Sodium Chloride (Nat Mur) commonly known as table salt. However, the homeopathic works to the benefit of the body instead of creating problems as regular table salt will. This is due to the diluting and shaking to make it a 6X potency. It is the most used cell salt for digestion, arthritis, and water distribution. It is the key to dry mucus membranes or excessivly watery discharges. Usually, the person who needs this cell salt is experiencing grief and/or self isolation. Some other uses include: Canker sores, Depression, Heart Palpitations, Loss of taste, Hang nails, and parasites.
Silicea (Silica) is nicknamed "The Surgeon." This is because of its ability to help the body rid itself of foreign objects. This cell salt is also responsible for connective tissue strength. It can aid in dissolving scar tissue. Someone who needs Silica is usually timid and the hands and feet are continuously cold. Other uses for Silica are: Boils, Sleepwalking, Cysts, Hip/joint disease, Smelly feet, and shyness.
When it comes to the swine flu, garlic is the herb to use. The dose is 16 cloves of fresh garlic a day if infected or 4 cloves a day as a preventative measure. This may sound simplistic, but it works.
If you want a readymade product, there is no better remedy than Dr. Christopher's Anti-Plague Formula (now called Super Immune Garlic Formula). If infected I would suggest consuming a 4 oz bottle per day until all symptoms have terminated. The dosage on the label would be enough to work as a preventative.

Hey everyone! For the next few months I will be sharing a little bit about each of the twelve cell salts. They are prepared and taken the same way homeopathics are: diluted and succussed (shaken) 6X. Also, these are also non-toxic and can be taken with any medications you may be taking. And anyone, infants, pregnant women, etc. can take them will no problem also. Each newsletter will cover four cell salts. My books with all the information is currently buried, so this is comming from a set of notes that I took.
Calcium Flouride (Calc Fluor) is essintial for the connective tissues. It helps relax tightened muscles and firm up sagging muscles or tissue. Calc fluor can be used for: bone spurs, lower back weakness, cysts, varicose veins, hemorrhoids, cracking joints, etc. Note: For those that are using or looking into flouride treatments, Calc flour can strengthen the enamel on teeth better than the flouride treatment.
Iron Phosphate (Ferrum Phos) is important for the oxygenation of the blood. Ferrum phos is unique because it carries oxygen to all parts of the body and there is no need to worry about iron toxicity. It is helpful during the first symptoms of cold or flu, but is most helpful with blood conditions. These could be as simples as nosebleeds, to hemorrhoages, etc. Other things it can help with are: arthritis, bronchitis, eye inflammation, morning sickness, tinnitus (ringing in the ears), etc.
Potassium Chloride (Kali Mur) is used in conditions where there is grey or think white mucus. This cell salt works with Fibrin (a protein that helps with the formation of a clot) to keep body fluids in correct thickness. It is very good for auto-immune diseases, bruising, facial redness, heart palpitations, kidney inflammation, nasal congestion, etc.
Magnesium Phosphate (Mag Phos) deals with muscular nerves and fibers. It feeds the heart and cardiovascular system. It is benefitial for spasmodic conditions. Some signs that it is needed: fast onset of cramping, symptoms relieved by heat and pressure. Other uses include: back chills, bloating, cramping, darting pains, etc.
Until next month, have a Happy Easter.
