FOREWORD
Herbs are plant food substances. This is not a scientific definition, it is a practitioners
definition. It is used by the people who make recommendations about how to build better
health naturally. If a person uses herbs they are an herbal practitioner. Herbs have been
used since people began eating. They are not new and they were used long before there
were people who called themselves doctors or scientists and they worked and they still
do. A large amount of information concerning what herbs to use for what was intuitive
and some trial and error as people sought out what helped them but what we now have is
an impressive list of plants that build better health. There is a solution to every physical
problem. It was meant to be that way. It is not experimental. The great religions of the
world say much and give much information about the use of herbs. It has been said each
person has an herb. Since there are so many physical differences between us, it stands to
reason one herb may do more for a certain person than another but do not despair. There
is an herb for you too. Often there are many herbs that are especially helpful for you, just
waiting to be discovered. Luckily when eating an herb if the wrong one is taken, nothing
much happens and if you do eat too much of it, body mechanisms usually reject it and
you leave it alone. Interestingly enough, an herb which tastes awful to a person may
indeed taste very agreeable to the same person when it is needed. Part of the fun is
discovering your herb or herbs and in the process an acquaintance with herbs that help
other people is gained. One of the ways to tell what an herb will do is to taste a little of it.
This is much easier to do with a liquid herb than a tablet or a capsule but in any case it
should be done before you ask anyone else to try an herb so it will at least be known to
you. Practice has shown that even when two people have the same physical problem one
may be helped more than another. This is because people are different and some folks are
less ready to get well than others. Even when you know exactly what they need, they still
find some way to keep it from working or a reason for not taking it. Never despair, that
the herbs don't work. This is a cooperative team effort. The team is made up of the herb
or herbs, the Creator who gave them to us, the one who gave the advice, and the person
using the advice. Each member of the team must do their part. Then it works like the
book says it does and that is what we can expect most of the time. Help those who are
good team players.
It is widely accepted that foods do alter the structure and function of the human body.
Herbs are natural food medicines in that respect. In this sense, the offerings in this book
are intended as an addition to the diet for that purpose. They can and do alter the structure
and function of the body favorably and if a disease goes away then a person has been
benefited by a change of diet. The concept of letting the foods we eat be our true
medicines has been around for a long time, and proclaimed by many prominent
practitioners, and what better way to do it. Regular drug medicines are concentrates,
fractionates and synthetics. Many times they are made from plants to begin with but they
are altered and the so-called active principle is isolated and removed and concentrated.
This creates an unnatural condition where man has tried to improve on nature by forcing
the body to do something it wasn't meant to do. This is not the way to build health
naturally. When you remove a substance from a plant in that manner you no longer have
the other parts of the plant that act as controls to see to it that harmful side effects don't
take place and that the natural medicine is absorbed at just the right rate. To make matters
even worse, sometimes in the manufacture of drugs, portions of what have been removed
from the plant have been altered in strange ways. Now we really get into harmful side
effects. But the worst insult to building better health naturally is when a synthetic drug is
made, usually from coal, tar or petroleum, which may mimic nature or, which the body
has never seen before and runs uncontrolled in the body, then it is anybody's guess what
will happen. Then take the case of a person taking more than one drug at a time and these
drugs interacting. A person literally becomes a walking experiment. This would be
harmful to a well person, but think what it could do to a sick person.
An example of this would be where a person has headaches all the time because there is
gas in the large intestine all the time. Powerful drugs are taken to relieve the pain and an
ulcer of the stomach is created. Now the person still gets headaches and has the torture of
an ulcer as well. The body was forced to stop feeling a headache at times despite the gas
and a side effect occurred. Now an ulcer drug must be taken and the ulcer is not cured but
the body does not feel the ulcer and all of a sudden there is a problem where the man can
no longer perform as a man. Now we need a tranquilizer. The tranquilizer keeps the
nerves from being as upset but causes nightmares and the original headache is such a
problem it is decided to cut the nerve in the brain which senses pain. Now the brain can
no longer monitor and control the body, and all manner of drugs are needed to force the
body to work. Each of these drugs can have its own side effects and interact with the
others to cause more side effects.
You can imagine the rest of the story. Wouldn't it have been easier to address the original
problem and put some Ginger in the diet to aid the digestion and rapidly blow the gas out
of the body through the nearest most appropriate exit? Then the headache would have
gone away. We could have repeated adding ginger to the diet, until the digestive problem
was finally resolved and the headache no longer occurred.
Please accept this offer to build better health naturally. The information in this Book was
written because you are respected and appreciated, and loved. Someone does care about
you and would like to see you well. Herbs are your birthright. Discover yours.

THE AUTHOR
Dr. A. B. Howard B.S.ed., M.S., N.D. carries a diversified educational background,

including biology, biochemistry, botany and plant physiology. Following his
undergraduate baccalaureate work in Science, Language and Education from
S.E. Missouri University, he went on to continue his studies abroad at the Free University
of West Berlin, Germany. Furthering his knowledge, he earned his Masters of Science
degree from Michigan State University, received a Doctorate of Naturopathic Medicine
from the Anglo-American Institute of Drugless Therapy in Bournemouth Haints, Great
Britain. He earned a second Naturopathic Doctor's Degree from the American University
of Natural Therapeutics & Preventative Medicine in Mesa, Arizona. While becoming an
Iridologist and Herbologist of distinction, Dr. Howard ran exhaustive studies on vitamins,
minerals and herbs, always mindful of their positive effects on the human body.
Dr. Howard then formed The Center For Building Better Health Naturally. Which had its
formal beginnings about 1972. Since that time he has devoted himself to practice and
further research and published materials through The Center For Building Better Health
Naturally. In the process (which is still ongoing) a great number of solutions for
regaining and maintaining health have been assembled. The Center published the first
Book, "Herbal Extracts" in 1983 and the book was an immediate success, since that time
it has been renamed "Herbs For You" in 2008. As more experience was gained, a number
of other successful works have been published and are available through the Center. It is
the intention of the Center to share this information, so a person can be responsible for
their own health.
HERBS FOR YOU, BUILD BETTER HEALTH NATURALLY & SUPPLEMENT TO

THE COPYRIGHTED WORK HERBS FOR YOU, BUILD BETTER HEALTH
NATURALLY.
For those who want more and to know what an herbal practitioner does when faced with
more difficult cases there are the VOLUMES I, II, III, IV, and SUPPLEMENT
VOLUME WORKING EDITION. These derive from decades of practical herbal
experience and observation. This is the "body shop" and its "how to analyze, fix and
repair manuals."
Furthermore, in practice as a Naturopath and nutritional consultant, he has demonstrated

dedication and perseverance of philosophy to achieve the objective purpose to help
expand the nutritional knowledge and wisdom of humankind. In short, Dr. Howard has
devoted his life to building better health naturally.

WHY, HOW, WHEN AND WHERE TO USE HERBS
Herbalist use herbs in liquid form because they are more easily digested and absorbed. In this
way they work the way they are supposed to in the herb books. Remember, the true taste of
an herb is your guarantee of it being genuine. If you prefer, herbal fluid extracts can be
added to juice for flavoring. With herbal extracts we totally eliminate the necessity of
swallowing all those pills and capsules and wondering if the capsule you swallow will be
able to get through the barrier film on the walls of your stomach and intestines and get to the
area you want it to work.
Herbal extracts, are not concentrates, they are dilutions. This is just like the dilution you
make when you put a tea bag into a cup of hot water. When you make a dilution, like a tea,
you have a water extract of an herb and this is very easy to digest, much easier than eating the
contents of the tea bag. The extracts described in this work are made with water and grain
neutral spirits (a natural alcohol). When the extract is kept in the liquid solution for 2 to 4
weeks, we get far more out of an herb than if a capsule of powdered herb is in the body
soaking for 8 to 24 hours. Alcohol is used because it readily dissolves all of the oily, waxy,
enzyme and hormonal portions of an herb. Water alone cannot do this. In this way, we get
everything the herb has to offer to build better health naturally.
Dr. William Donald Kelly, a noted U.S. author of many works on regaining health, shares
with us the process of our pancreas manufacturing a small amount of alcohol at all times so
we don't freeze. This is a natural and ethical use of alcohol by our bodies. When an herbal
extract is made with a pure grain neutral spirit (a spirit produced from grains, not a synthetic
gas, and devoid of any other material dissolved in it other than water), is taken in a quantity
of drops rather than a glassful, the alcohol functions as a carrier for the herb. Indeed, in many
cases, an actual complex is formed where the alcohol combines with the herb to form this
herb carrier team. This same alcohol carrier principle is how a mouthwash works, or, an
extract of iodine (tincture) when placed on a cut. Many brands of underarm deodorants also
follow this principle. When mouthwash is used internally for a mouth bath, a certain amount
of the mouthwash is absorbed through the tongue and surrounding structures in the process of
cleaning the breath. A tincture of iodine is used externally to kill germs. An underarm
deodorant is used for the same purpose and or a perfume effect. If an individual can not
tolerate these kinds of products, then they should be advised to use herbal tablets, teas,
capsules, powders, or the like, in place of the type of herbal extract we describe here.
Herbs For You, as described in these pages, are taken on or under the tongue, mixed with
fruit juice or used externally, as indicated. When used internally, they are carried through the
tongue or stomach walls almost directly into the blood stream and thus, bypass the nearly 27
feet of tortured digestive tract. When applied externally to the skin, herbal extracts are rapidly
absorbed and enter the blood stream within seconds. They go where they are supposed to go
and do what they are supposed to. They are absorbed especially well from the soles of the
feet, the palms of the hands, the insides of the thighs, the temples of the forehead, the spine
and back of the neck or any other places where you can feel the pulse beat of the heart. This
gives the practitioner and the user a great deal more flexibility and is very helpful for babies
and grownups who, cannot or will not swallow anything. It should also be emphasized here
that an herbal extract can be applied to the entire spine, from the tip of the coccyx (tail bone)
upward and on to the neck, to work with great rapidity and efficiency.
62
This work and its applied use is given to you because someone does care about you a very
great deal and does want to see you well and happy. Once you identify the herbs for your
body type, they are your true herbal friends and they will not desert you in times of need. The
goal of this information is so you can have a body without physical problems. Then you are
free to be yourself, do things, play, work, move around, and enjoy life.
With the best of all possible intentions and regards for you,
Dr. A.H.
P.S. Please, as a natural practitioner, familiarize yourself with the appearance, taste and smell
of the herbs you use so you can judge their quality, just as you can judge a good cup of coffee
or a good cup of herbal tea. Then you can taste, judge, compare and recognize the quality of
good herbal extracts. You must have an extract of very high quality to get the results
promised in this work. Now go for it.
Dr. A.H.
THE CORRECT STRENGTH OF EXTRACTS
"The question arises as to what strength an extract should be. Years of practice and
observation have revealed it is something like making a soup. You make it so it tastes the
way you expect it to taste. You know the appearance, taste, and smell of the herb in the field
where the Creator made it and this is what you want the finished product to be like. When
you do this, the extract is then "TISSUE COMPATIBLE." That is to say the finished product
should not burn the back of the throat and destroy tissue or overwhelm the body systems by
acting too forcefully. Therefore, prepare herbal extracts to be "TISSUE COMPATIBLE" and
then they act just like the plant was created to work when you take it. The herbs can then be
enjoyed without concern."
**Dr. Eugene C. Watkins, B.S.ed, M.S., N.D., "The Center For Building Better Health
Naturally lectures."
The information in this book relates to all forms of herbs, whether it is liquid, capsules,
tablets, or teas. For the proper usages or dosages in whatever form you are using please
consult the manufacturer of their products.

CHILDREN DOSAGE
ALL DOSAGE, AS STATED IN THIS BOOK, ARE BASED ON AN ADULT DOSAGE.

(unless otherwise indicated).
CHILDREN DOSAGE:
For children 25-50 lbs. use 1/3 of the dosage given.

For children above 100 lbs. use full dosage given.
FOR INFANTS AND SMALL BABIES:
Usually, a practitioner works with 1 drop on the tongue at a time, then the affect is noted
before administering more. Wait a few minutes before you give more and, in general, do not
exceed 5 to 10 drops at a time.
EXTERNAL USE FOR EYERYONE:
If using the herb externally, we use whatever is necessary to cover the area, such as the soles
of the feet, the length of the spine and back of the neck, on the chest and or abdomen.
TEAS
Teas are the traditional method to prepare herbs. Steep (let set) 1 teaspoon of herb in 1 cup
boiling hot water for 3-5 minutes. For bark and dried roots, boil lightly for 5 to 15 minutes,
which is known as a decoction (dee-cock'-shun). Teas have a distinct usage in the form of a
pleasing and at the same time, correcting beverage.
Their disadvantages are that teas do not dissolve oily or waxy substances from the herb and
much of the remedial effects are not obtained. Also heat can destroy some of the more
delicate and active components of the herb.
CAPSULES
Encapsulated herbs are the modern refinement of herbal science. The herb powder is (after
grinding) sealed in a gelatin capsule to prevent contact with air. This keeps it fresh. You
don't have to taste the herb and it is easier than taking the powder. The herbs may then be
swallowed without tasting the herb. There is a disadvantage among the advantages.
Powdered, encapsulated herbs rely upon the digestive system to digest it. Many people may
not digest the capsule or contents properly. In practice, this is common and the practitioner
hears the phenomenon, "The herb doesn't work like the book said it would." This can be
compensated for by taking more capsules than usual or a liquid digest aid to digest the
capsule and if necessary its contents.
64
PETS
1. Can I give herbs to my cat, dog, horse, etc.?

Yes. Herbs work about the same for other life forms, as they do for people. After all herbs
were and are a part of their natural foods before we were around. Adjust the amounts
according to body weight. Look at the human doses and go accordingly.
2. Does that mean I should give my horse a gallon?

Adult doses of herbs given in this book are based on about 120-150 lbs. Go accordingly for
their weight. For instance if you would take 4 capsules of an herb to clean the bowel, such as
Cascara Sagrada, then feed your horse 1/2 cup full. The next day you will be able to tell how
high the horse is by looking at the sides of the stall.
3. What if my pet or animal will not take the herbs?

Rub liquid herbs on the outside of the body. The foot pads are very well. On dog or cat, for
general purposes, give them enough to cover all the foot pads twice per day.
4. Can I put the herbs directly on the spot where my pet or animal has the problem?
If you can for yourself, then you can for them. Otherwise put the herbs all around the area.
5. What if I want to put eye herbs in my pets eyes?

Dilute some and try it in your eyes. If it works out, than you can give it to your pet or animal.
If for some reason your pet is squeamish, then use the foot pads as an approach.
6. What if the liquid herbs don't get through the thick horse hair?
Shave the hair to get to the skin.
7. Will parasite herbs hurt my pet?

No. Herbs are not drugs. Herbs have governing and regulating mechanisms built into them to
prevent problems. If your pet does not need the herbs their bodies will throw them off or up
harmlessly.
8. Should I increase my pet's bowel movements when worm herbs are being used?
The rule is one bowel movement per meal your pet has. If your pet naturally has more during
this time that is ok too.
9. If I put herbs on and injured leg for instance, would they be effective through all the fur?
You can try an external time release wrap. Soak a layer of gauze with the herbs(s) and wrap
the area. Cover this with plastic sandwich wrap. Then hold all in place with an elastic
bandage. Change morning and night. Allow the area to dry before applying a new wrap.
10. What if my pet is emotionally upset or too frisky, will the herbs work the same for them
as they do for me?
If it is a condition that demands immediate attention, it is worth a try. If you need to clam
your pet first, use mineral supplement herbs to their diet, or if need be, use the nerve herbs.
Of course remove as many of the upsetting elements from your pet's environment as
possible.
65
11. How quickly will the herbs work on my pet?

As a rule pets are more fun to work with than humans if they know you love them and your
are truly trying to help them. Then they will respond very quickly.
12. Should I give my pets and animals herbal vitamins and minerals?
This would be one of the finest things you could do for your pets or animals. They need their
natural diet too. Naturally grown and wild herbs are one of the last reliable ways we can give
our pets the best of what it needs.
DRUGS AND HERBS
They are not the same. Herbs are plant foods. Drugs are man made and have side effects.
Herbs were made by our Creator and have only intended effects. If you read the Holy
Bible you will see in the book of Genesis that he gave them to us for our medicine. Herbs
were here long before there were people calling themselves doctors. Herbs contain
governing and regulating mechanism to control their actions. Drugs do not. In this country
and in other very civilized areas there is a strange relationship between herbalist and
medicine. People in these two different groups do not get along. This is unfortunate. If it is
true that doctors and herbalist truly want to see their patients or clients get well then why not
use anything and everything within their grasp to do so? At present the group representing
chemical drug medicines want to put herbalists and their herbs out of business or at least
discredit their past. They have great power, money and influence. The more effective an
herb is, the more likely you are to see and hear terrible things written and said about it in
newspapers, magazines, on the Internet news and information sources on computers and of
course TV and radio. Keep in mind some of these herbs being so bitterly attacked have been
in recorded use for thousands of years. Herbs and also natural vitamins said to be
dangerous and have side effects like drugs. They aren't and they don't. As an example one
evening the TV news cast proclaimed "scientific studies" show that Vitamin C and
Vitamin E cause terrible diseases! This sort of scares and misinforms people. Vitamin E and
Vitamin C are vital for health. Many so called herb books are now written by pharmacists
and chemists. They list much confusion, scary and terrifying side effects of herbs. Don't be
fooled these people do not practice with herbs nor do they take them, but yet they want you
to believe they are the experts. The experts on herbs are the ones who use herbs. By the way
if you do find a herb or natural vitamin does not agree with your body type, leave it alone.
There are plenty of other herb foods and vitamin food sources you can use. These people
who wish to scare you about herbs do have mountains of money, power and influence on
their side but there is one thing they don't have on their side. "They don't have something
called "THE TRUTH." So don't be frightened. Herbs were here long before the people that
hate them and they will be around long after there gone. Herbs are your birthright. They were
put here for our use. Enjoy them.

THE KEYS TO PRACTICE FOR THE NATURAL PRACTITIONER
You become a natural practitioner at that moment when you decide you are one. And, when
you advise yourself to take something natural, such as Bee Pollen, as a supplement to your
diet, you are already practicing. As you see yourself finally improving over a period of the
next few weeks and months, despite the stress you are under not letting up, and are pleased
with the progress, you can advise others to take it too. As you see them improve, and are
pleased, the process is complete; you, for sure, are a consulting natural practitioner. Spend
your time with those you can help. Some people are not your consultees. Some people have
simply given up and others are just "as independent as a hog on ice," others have not suffered
enough and are unwilling to give up their illness. These are nobody's consultees. Do not
squander your concern on people you cannot help. As a general rule, relatives and family
members are usually among your most difficult to help cases. Mainly, they don't "need" or
seek out your advice. Send them elsewhere. Work with those for which you can be a
consultant. There are four parts to our work: #1. The suggestions we make, #2. The
herbs used and their quality, #3. The Creator and #4. The person. You don't have to
worry about the Creator - the Creator is always willing for what is good. It is the other
parts of the team we must be most concerned about. We, and good quality herbs will do
our best. Then, when you have the consultee pulling in the same direction, you have the
whole team moving straight toward building better health naturally and it will occur.
You can't force a person to get well, so don't get into a tug-of-war with them.
1. Take stock of how their body is functioning now.
2. Decide how their body should be functioning.
3. Choose what it will take to permit their body to function the way it should.
A. Make sure they have an overall supplement of natural source Multi-Vitamins and
Minerals.
B. Make sure they are getting enough protein of high quality. You may wish to supplement
with a liquid protein source.
C. Make sure they are digesting properly. Check for any of the 4 B's: Bloating, Burping,
Burning or Belching. You may wish to give a digestaid.
D. From your "herbal tools" choose the cleaners, repair herb(s), oxygenator(s), herb(s) to
remove the physical trauma from areas, poison antidotes, circulatory and specialized
correction herb(s) needed to do the job.
E. Regenerate tissue and organs and glands.
F. Dissolve the congestive rocks (waste mineral deposits) in the area.
G. Dissolve the congestive fat deposits (cholesterol), triglycerides, etc. in the area.
H. Clean the dirt out (accumulated debris) from the area.
68
4. Take the herb(s).
5. Allow the herb(s) to work.
6. Discharges: Expect that there may be discharges from the body as the herbs work and the
body casts out poisons and other impurities through the blood, lymph, skin, hair, nails, urine,
saliva, mucus, lungs, sinuses, ears, throat, tongue, eyes, stool, etc. This is desirable. The
presence of these poisons in the body is what is causing the "dis-ease" in the first place. If
poisons discharge rapidly and discomfort occurs, follow on through with the cleansing
process. Make the person more comfortable in this way: increase bowel movements, give
poison antidotes, stop eating, increase fluid intake such as mineral water, low acid juices, or
Green Drink (for Green Drink, blend 1 handful of green lettuce with one pint of distilled
water and drink). Induce sweating. If diarrhea occurs, give an enema and complete the
process the diarrhea is trying to accomplish. Flush out what is causing the problem. Get all of
the eliminative systems working and it will take the pressure off of the others and make the
person more comfortable.
7. Reassure the consultee (the person being counseled).

Share the knowledge with them, that the body is normally in a state of constant change and
because of this a person can get changes for the better.
8. Do what you can to counsel them.
All physical problems which plague your consultee have Areas of Approach where real
improvement can take place, even if it is just to advise them to "Do unto others as you would
have others do unto you." Check these key areas in which to start and work on any or all of
them, where needed, until well:
A. Improve the circulation.
B. Oxygenate, put the "breath of life" back in the body.
C. Use a digestaid and get them digesting.
D. Use a bowel cleaner and/or urinary tract cleaner.
E. Use an herb or herbs for the nerves, which calm the system and rebuild the nerves
themselves.
F. Take Nutrients from high-quality natural sources, which provide needed proteins, oils,
and carbohydrates.
G. Use an herb or herbs, which provide energy and relieve stress such as: natural sources
of B-Complex vitamins, minerals and adrenal gland(s) supplements.
H. Drink plenty of clean mineral water.
I. Eliminate foods and life style, which harm.
69
J. Laugh a lot and hang around others who do. It is hard to laugh and be sick at the same
time.
K. Get the bones of the spine, neck, head and any other bones needing it into proper
alignment.
L. Walk daily, and when you do, find things you like to see and don't talk to anyone that
isn't there.
M. Use an overall supplement of natural source multi-vitamins and minerals in sufficient

quantity that they are felt.
9. Follow your most deeply felt "passion" (wish) to do that which you have always wanted to
do in life. Make that your "work" and you won't get tired or sick easily.
10. Quit any job that makes your stomach churn or stay tied up in knots and or any job that
hurts people or the world more than it helps them.
11. Move to that area: mountains, desert, seaside, plains or other area where you ought to be.
12. Eat food prepared by those who love you.
13. Live with those who love you and whom you love.
14. Select those foods you know you do best on.
15. Maintain personal fitness, avoid chills.
16. Realize there are several different kinds of body types (vegetarians, meat eaters,
combination vegetarian-meat eater types) and therefore, learn several herbs for each category
to work on, such as: nerves, digestion, bowel elimination, etc. You can make your
suggestions more flexible, in this way, as you learn to match the best herb for a certain body
type. You can let the consultee taste the different possible choices and help choose if you
like. Often, an herb or herbs that taste horrible to another will taste quite acceptable to a
consultee in need of building better health naturally.
17. If someone is convinced they need drugs or an operation to get well, they probably do.
Different people need different things to get them well. Refer them to a medical doctor who
does this and leave them alone.
18. Realize, when someone has suffered enough, they will seek your counsel and follow it
and get well.
19. Don't add to, or complicate the problems of your consultee.
20. Put together a program with materials from what the Creator has provided for us in
nature that will work on what is bothering them.
70
21. The best Natural Practitioners know that sometimes one of the best things you can do for
your consultee is to truly listen to them.
We do not know all there is to know about herbs and nutrition at this point. We now know
quite a bit more than isolated groups of people in times past knew, who used a limited
number of herbs which grew only in their area. We now have a much wider scope of shared
experience and the whole global area from which to draw. This has resulted in a more
comprehensive and coordinated approach to solve our problems. We now have herbs and
accumulated information from many parts of the world to choose from to find what works
best. We also have new combinations of these that were formerly unavailable. So, go for it
and enjoy the riches we now do have.
Welcome to the community of Natural Practitioners!

CAUSES
Dear Friends,
With this work, you now have the information to solve just about any physical problem you
may encounter. A myth put together by those who have other interests," there are about
30,000 "diseases" and new ones jumping up all the time." There are probably only a dozen or
so basic reasons why bodies get into trouble with "germs" or other harmful agents. This is
proven by practice in approaching body problems very calmly and very basically. Please
know, you can understand what the problem really is. You have not been forgotten. The
Creator has provided for you. What remains is, learning to understand how to use our herbal
gifts.
Regardless of what kind of "disease" name has been put upon what the person is suffering
from, look at the following circumstances that could be causing the problem. Look for what
natural function(s) has or have been repressed or, in some way, unfavorably altered. Once
this is recognized, choose the herb or herbs which resolve what is, in fact, the true
malfunction. Then health will return and "disease" will go away.
I. CIRCULATION
2. OXYGENATION
3. DIGESTION
4. QUALITY OF NOURISHMENT
5. ELIMINATIVE ORGANS
6. POISONING
7. ACID/ANTI-ACID BALANCE
8. DAMAGE-INJURY
9. STORED SHOCK-TRAUMA IN NERVOUS SYSTEM
10. QUALITY OF PLAY
11. QUALITY OF WORK
12. QUALITY OF AIR
13. QUALITY OF HOME LIFE
14. QUALITY OF COMMUNITY LIFE
15. EMOTIONAL
You'll probably find something on this list at fault for whatever is bothering you in the way
of a physical problem. Determine the herb(s) which work(s) in those areas and begin using
what is needed. If improvement does not occur, then use more of the herb(s) or increase the
frequency of use or both. If a problem gets worse when you use herb(s) and you have taken
enough, often enough and long enough to correct what you want, by all means change the
herb(s) you take. Reaffirm your ideals, work toward them and practice your faith. Succeed!
Wishing you the best, Dr. A.H.

"GREEN DRINK"
WHAT IT IS.
Green Drink is a liquid, which you make yourself with a blender. It is essentially a "live
food." By using a blender and water with fresh, green, edible leaves, you can prepare a
drink with the vegetable material "chewed" several thousand times a minute by the
blades in a blender. Chewing a green salad with teeth, even if each bite is chewed with
good teeth 32 times, liberates only approximately 2% of the available nutritional leaf
fluids of chlorophyll. This is because the intracellular fluids are contained in microscopic
cellulose cells which are essentially wood. The human body has no mechanism to digest
cellulose. This means in order to digest the cellular contents of a leaf, the teeth must
mechanically separate the cellulose structures. A good blender can deliver as much as
80% of the leaf's cellular fluids. This makes your salad greens approximately 40 times
more effective. So instead of 40 salads a day, one is enough to make a big difference
when blended. Chlorophyll is "plant blood" and embarrassingly similar to hemoglobin.
The complex molecules of chlorophyll and hemoglobin are alike except the vegetable
material has a speck of magnesium in the center and the hemoglobin has a speck of iron
in it, so one is green and the other is red.
WHAT IT DOES:
Green Drink nourishes the blood stream and is the next best thing to having a blood
transfusion without the worry of infection or contamination. Green Drink is an
oxygenator, a poison antidote and a gentle flush to rid the body of poisons both internal
and environmental. It is a source of natural vegetable Vitamin A, which unlike other
sources, can be taken without fear of toxic build up. No one has ever died from an
"overdose" of green lettuce. This is of considerable value for correction of skin and eye
problems, as well as sweeping all internal skin surfaces clean. The natural high quality
Potassium content has a considerable effect on muscular strength and stabilization of
blood sugar levels, which all add up to increased energy and a properly functioning
system.
WHY NOT JUST TAKE A COMMERCIALLY PREPARED CHLOROPHYLL

PRODUCT?
Commercially prepared chlorophyll liquids are not "live." They are preserved and do not
have the biological activity of the freshly prepared "live" drink.
FOR HOW LONG IS THE "GREEN DRINK" GOOD?

It is best made fresh every 24 hours.
SHOULD OTHER THINGS BE ADDED TO "GREEN DRINK?"

Couldn't you add pineapple juice to flavor or maybe Kool Aid or Gator Aid?
No! Then it isn't Green Drink. Green Drink is Green Drink.
PREPARATION:
Green Drink is made with a blender. Blend 1 handful of any fresh "green leaves" with 1
pint of (distilled) water for one minute and drink. If you don't want it "crunchy," then
filter through a paper coffee filter or a piece of cheesecloth. Acceptable green leaves are
73
leaves such as the green lettuces: Escarole, Bib, Romaine, Endive, Swiss Chard, Collards,
Dandelion Leaves, Birch Tree leaves, and sprouts of Alfalfa which have been allowed to
grow a little longer and develop more chlorophyll. If a strong diuretic Green Drink is
preferred, then it can be made with fresh Parsley; or if a milder diuretic is preferred, then
a single nice sized sprig of Parsley.
HOW MUCH DOES A PERSON USE?

Generally 1 pint (1/2 liter) per day for cleansing, nourishing, increased energy and a
sense of "well-being."
ALTERNATIVE INTENSIVE USE:

If rapid progress is required and rapid turn-around time is of the essence, then enough
"Green Drink" should be prepared the evening before and refrigerated so that it can be
taken every hour on the hour while awake until well. If leaving the house, an insulated
bottle or thermos bottle should be used for portability and your convenience. At this rate,
an average adult body size (calculated at 150 lbs. or 68 Kilograms), every drop of fluid in
the body will have been exchanged one time for "Green Drink" in two weeks time. If
this is done continuously until well at this rate, a person's blood stream becomes very
clean and everything it touches becomes very clean and functions better. Thus a wide
variety of benefits and conditions are known to respond favorably. The renowned U.S.
naturopathic doctor Dr. Bernard Jensen states from extensive clinical practice "If you are
green inside, you are clean inside."
SHOULD I EAT ANYTHING ELSE DURING THE TIME WHERE I AM

TAKING "GREEN DRINK" INTENSIVELY?
Yes, do eat. The ALTERNATIVE INTENSIVE USE is not a fast. It flushes out and
oxygenates. SEE and follow the printed instructions: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
ON THE IMPORTANCE OF PROTEIN OF AND SUGGESTED SOURCES BELOW:
for meals.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THE IMPORTANCE OF PROTEIN AND SUGGESTED SOURCES
Protein is essential for the health and well-being of the body and its repair. It plays many
roles. One of these is the stabilization of blood sugar. By having protein of high quality
at meal, eaten to satisfaction as tolerated, the blood sugar stabilizes and energy levels
normalize. The "taste for sweets" disappears, as well as the tormenting desire for
(carbohydrates) starches and sugars. The physical need is no longer there. Protein also
plays an essential role in building and maintaining immunity. To get the maximal effect
from protein, it is very important to get it digested. Therefore a digestaid may be needed
at each meal as well.
PROTEIN SOURCES: Choose something from this list at each meal.
Whole grains: for weight loss use RYE, YELLOW CORN, WILD RICE, BROWN
RICE, or MILLET. For weight gain use WHEAT OR BARLEY. These grains may be
enjoyed as breads, crackers or cereals both hot or cold.
74
Nut butters: PEANUT, ALMOND, SESAME (Tahini) or SUNFLOWER nut butters.

(Note: only nut butter which contain only the nuts themselves, for instance Peanut Butter
made only from peanuts. As natural nut butters contain no preservatives such as sugar or
margarine (hydrogenated fats), they do require refrigeration after opening.)
Eggs: As long as you do not harden the yellow of the egg there is no need to worry about
cholesterol. Enjoy them "over easy," "sunny side up," soft boiled or poached.
Cheeses: Aged chesses only as they are easier to digest, such as SWISS, MUNSTER,
FETA or CHEDDAR. NO AMERICAN PROCESS TYPE CHEESE OR CHEESE
SPREADS.
Note: If any of the 4 B's are present, Bloating, Burning, Burping or Belching during
the meal or after, take a digestaid with each meal. Use either GENTIAN or SWEET
ROOT at the rate of 10 to 40 drops or more with each meal to ensure complete digestion
and so you get the protein value out of your food instead of just the calories.
GARLIC WATER INJECTION

(Retention Enema) "Antibiotic Cleaner"
This preparation is used for a wide variety of conditions. It is especially helpful where the
person is incapacitated, unconscious, cannot keep anything down or will not drink what they
need. In any case where a food antibiotic is needed as with the flu, fevers, diarrhea or to
break up congestion anywhere in the body such as the heart area, sinuses, abdomen, blood
stream or the entire body, a garlic injection can be prepared and used. Garlic penetrates,
cleans and also kills "germs" (microorganisms) of many types. Then circulation rushes back
into the area and repair can occur.
The use of garlic to restore health and to maintain it is not new. Garlic was used in Egyptian
times. The practice of blending it to increase its activity with the modern high- speed blender
is of course new. To one pint of water (distilled) add a peeled "button" (the natural pieces
which garlic breaks into) and blend. After blending, filter the garlic water through a paper
coffee filter or cheesecloth. Add 80 drops of liquid A.C.S. (All Cells Salts mineral formula)
to restore mineral complexes (electrolytes) necessary for the nervous system of the body to
do its job. Then add 1 tbsp. of honey to the liquid to restore normal blood sugar and prevent
fainting. This is especially important in diarrhea or after operations or the shock of an
accident. Put the liquid garlic water with minerals and honey into a baby enema syringe
(obtain from a hospital supply store or drug store), insert into the rectum for as long as
possible. Room temperature water is usually the best as it can be retained longer. Cold water
causes contraction and hot water relaxation. Use daily until well. In times of crisis repeat
hourly until the crisis is past.
SPECIAL NOTE:
The right kind of garlic to make this work is real garlic, that is the kind that is easily
recognizable by its aroma. Garlic (scentless) without its characteristic garlic aroma is just
another onion.

ACEROLA CHERRY
Malpighia glabra
PROPERTIES AND USES: Unusually high in natural Vitamin B-1 which provides a sense
of well-being.
COMMON NAMES: Barbadoes Cherry.
PARTS USED: Fruit.
BODILY INFLUENCES: After years of searching, we finally have a source of the fresh,
ripe, yellow Acerola Cherry (Malpighia puncifolia Linnie and Malphigia glabra). Now you
can enjoy the benefits of an exceptionally high source of natural Vitamin C (ascorbic acid).
Because these cherries are especially high in Vitamin C, their taste is somewhat tart. Before
this, we could only get dried Acerola Cherry powder mixed with some form of sugar or
sweetener. That was to make them taste better.
NOTE: Acerola Cherries are also unusually high in natural Vitamin B-1, which provides a
sense of well-being.
DOSAGE: One teaspoon three times per day.
ALFALFA
I/
414 14.1‘
•
Medicago sativa
, PROPERTIES AND USES:

Food, alterative (good for the
whole body), CO-Q 10 source,
body nutrients, tonic, joints,
stomach and arthritic
discomfort, stops excess
sweating, deodorizes, pituitary
gland nutrient.
COMMON NAMES: Lucem

Alfalfa — Medicago sativa
and Buffalo Herb.
Photograph by Barbara Jacobs
PARTS USED: Leaves.
BODILY INFLUENCES: This food, which has its name from the Arabic language is
known as the "father of all foods." Alfalfa comes to us originally from Asia. It is always a
matter of great humor for herbalists when some chemist isolates a new vitamin and discovers
it is also found in Alfalfa. Alfalfa is very easy to digest as it contains at least eight active
enzymes. These enzymes help a person to digest the food as well as the plant itself. Large
quantities may be eaten for the purpose of relieving joint pains, repairing and maintaining
bones, repair of stomach and as a source of hormonal nutrition for the all important pituitary
gland. Alfalfa, due to a root system as deep as 125 feet, brings up a rich storehouse of
76
Calcium, Potassium, Magnesium, Phosphorous and Sodium. These minerals are in excellent
balance for a healthy system.
NOTE: Do not be concerned Alfalfa

could contain harmful sodium. This is not
saltshaker sodium. It is an organic plant
sodium which nourishes the blood stream
and promotes youthful, flexible joints and
repairs the stomach. Alfalfa provides a
balanced spectrum of vitamins and
minerals. Deodorizes and prevents excess
perspiration, stops hemorrhage, soaks up
uric and lactic acid to prevent nerve
irritation, lubricates joints, relieves pain,
and is diuretic (relieves fluid retention).
DOSAGE: 20 to 80 drops after each meal

and persist until results are achieved.
Enjoy the many short range benefits and
especially those long- range benefits
which occur over months and years. If
capsules are preferred, one to 4 capsules Alfalfa — Medicago sativa
instead. A good idea is to start with one Photograph by Dr. Eugene C. Watkins
capsule and work your way upward as
needed and desired.
ALL CELLS SALTS (MINERALS) (A. C. S.)
PROPERTIES AND USES: Mineralizer, food, blood cleanser, lymphatic cleanser, relieves
cellular congestion, Down's Syndrome (genetic calcium congestion causing malformation of
head and retardation in the young).
COMBINATION: Bladderw rack, Atlantic Kelp, Arrowroot and Irish Moss.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The combination has a seafood taste and is most interesting
because it has all of the 13 organic tissue salts, which are found in the body. Each different
type of tissue in the body contains a different concentration of mineral salts and elements,
which make up its construction and insure its proper function. This combination contains all
of them. It is truly a source of food for every cell in the body. Organic minerals will replace
inorganic mineral build-ups in the body and this combination excels as a cleanser for that
reason. The salts break up congestion in the cells and the fluid that surrounds them. This
could be described as a type of "chelation therapy." Not only is the cell-choking
accumulation removed, the new minerals and elements are right there to replace worn out
parts. This represents a tremendous advance for herbal science. As the wastes are flushed free
from the cells, the urine often clouds up and smells strange as well as with the bowel. There
may be strange tastes in the mouth as the sinuses clean. Five to six, 12 oz. portions of spring
water should be taken daily to complete the flushing process. Sometimes this process
continues for months, but at a safe rate. When the urine is no longer cloudy and the stool no
longer has strange smells, the flushing is complete. A clean body is now ready to survive for
77
a very long time. A maintenance amount of 40 drops three times per day should keep the
body clean. This combination is recommended for expectant mothers and while they
breastfeed their child. The children thus fed are calmer and quieter with improved
development from the high quality of nutrients to be found in this combination.
DOSAGE: For general and all-purpose use for full spectrum mineral supplementation,
40 drops, three times per day. For oral chelation, start with 40 drops three to four times per
day. Within the first three weeks of use, work up to 120 drops three to four times per day. It
is okay to estimate the drops. A person soon learns to be quite accurate with this. Each time
A.C.S. is taken, 16 oz. of water should be taken with this to flush away what has been
dissolved. If pregnant or nursing, 40 drops three times per day. If capsules are preferred,
3 capsules, 3 times per day.
NOTE: The appetite may decrease during this time and weight loss may occur due to the
cleansing process, however, as this combination is also a food of the finest type, there is no
need to worry and the increased energy is a blessing. ALL CELLS SALTS (MINERALS)
can be used as a source of herbal calcium-magnesium.

The long appreciated and tested herbal
experience of India gives us this ginseng-like
remedy for improved sexual function, abundant
energy, increased ability of concentration, and
lung problems. Ashwagandha is highly valued
in conditions of long-standing stress from
chronic disorders.
DOSAGE: 40 drops or more three times per day or as needed to achieve desired results.

ASTRAGALUS
Coptis trifolia
PROPERTIES AND USES: Powerful

immune system builder, Interferon
production, improve appetite, expel poisons,
strengthens the ability to digest, repairs
chronic lung problems, reduces fluid
swellings, provides energy by being an
adrenal gland(s) nutrient and increases
circulation.
COMMON NAMES: Mouth root, Canker

Root, Yellow Root.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: (Milk Vetch Root) Powerful immune system builder. Comes to
us from Chinese herbal medicine with the recommendation of nearly 2,000 years of recorded
satisfactory use as a powerful immune system builder. We know from use and clinical
investigation in the Western world that the root of this legume (a type of plant which enriches
the soil and produces proteins by having nodules or "bumps" on its roots that collect nitrogen
from the air) does indeed activate the liver to produce a substance called interferon.
Interferon holds tightly to the surface of body cells and causes them to produce the body's
own antibodies (proteins) which kill viruses and viral infections. This can be especially
helpful where drug medicine has no answer. Also,
please understand that many times a vaccination
or immunization can leave lingering viruses to
masquerade as a whole host of symptoms and
baffling "diseases" which are seldom connected
with being the true cause. As just a single
instance, who would ever think of warts under the
eyes or elsewhere as being a side effect of an
immunization, but they can be. Astragalus, with
its ability to see to it that viruses are killed, can be
very helpful as an answer to the common cold,
provided a person has a decent diet and two to
three bowel movements per day. Because viruses
are killed, pus is expelled from wounds and they
are healed. Astragalus also works to improve
appetite where needed, and either cause the skin to
sweat and expel poisons or, if perspiration is
unwarranted, reduce it. Astragalus strengthens the
ability to digest, repairs chronic lung problems,
reduces fluid swellings, provides energy by being an adrenal gland(s) nutrient and increases
circulation. Astragalus and another Chinese herb, Dong Quai (Chinese Angelica), are often
82
combined for this purpose. Thanks for this friend of the immune system and energy builder
must be given to the Creator and the Chinese for its discovery.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops three times per day. If Dong Quai is also taken to form a team then
take both in the same amount.
BARBERRY

Sweet Basil.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Basil is

most commonly known as a
condiment, cooking or table flavoring
for adding a little interest to the taste
83
buds with its mild warming, cooling and spicy qualities. As an herb, Basil is most closely
associated with alleviating stomach complaints, such as cramping, by increasing the flow of
gastric juices to prevent food from forming gas in the stomach and to calm the nervous
system. For nursing mothers, use of Basil can increase the flow of milk to satisfy baby's
needs.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops before meals or three times per day. For nursing mothers Basil can
be applied directly to the breasts as needed.
BAYBERRY
Myrica cerifera, L.

DOSAGE: 10 to 40 drops once a day for energy or as desired. 40 to 80 drops per meal as a
correction and prevention for allergies. For rejuvenation, longevity, rebuilding stamina and
for all other internal uses one teaspoon to one tablespoon three times per day.
BEE PROPOLIS
Apifera propolis
PROPERTIES AND USES: Colds, coughs, flu,

viral flu, fevers, antibiotic, bowel poisons.
COMMON NAMES: Bee Propolis
PARTS USED: Bees manufacture from selected

bark, leaves and flowers.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Honeybees have been

around a long time. They were created before us,
if you believe in the Bible, and have had more
time to work things out. Bees have a very well ordered social system and do not waste much
time or resources on things like war, crime or insanity. There is no need for jails or prisons
full of criminal bees kept in cells. Honeybees are a highly disciplined team dedicated to
helping each other survive. And they make valuable products like honey, wax and something
called propolis. Propolis is a Greek term meaning before the city or pro - polis. It was
observed 25 hundred years ago that honeybees have tunnels and walkways they go through to
get inside their dwellings. These tunnels and walkways are made of a resin, something like
hardened tree sap, and we call this material propolis. As a matter of fact, the bees do collect
the sap of selected trees and buds and leaves and mix this with wax. Bees sweat wax, not
sweat like we do. This wax is mixed with their saliva and the sap. At this point it becomes
propolis. Ok, why all this effort to make propolis? They don't eat it. Entrance and exit
tunnels and walkways are built out of propolis. Bees can't very well take off their shoes
when entering their houses. So, they put up a sticky, antibiotic propolis mat and tunnel
which traps germs, viruses, fungus, dirt, etc. They don't track diseases into their home. We
don't do that and we get sick. Honeybees also put propolis plugs into any undesired
openings, which are found in their home. They also put a light coating of propolis on the
wax honey cells to protect them. If a large insect, or heaven forbid, a mouse should come
looking for some honey, or an errant snake should invade their home, it is stung to death. If
it is too heavy to drag back out, they completely coat and encase it in propolis. Once that is
done, the creature, does not putrefy and destroy the honey and hive. People have theorized
that if we could eat bee propolis then we could kill the germs and things, which try to kill us.
And people have tried it. It seems to work pretty well. Some people sip drops of liquified
bee propolis throughout the day when they have a sore throat or fever or other infectious
malady. Others take bee propolis capsules or liquid to help prevent infections. Now
remember, we are a lot larger than honeybees and come in contact with more things. Add to
this that frankly, we eat a lot of harmful things and, too much of them, not enough of the
good things. Some people do not have a meal as much as they have a series of metabolic
insults starting with a cup of coffee and a doughnut and ending with a cigarette. And we get
sick. So don't expect bee propolis to be able to do everything to keep you well. Help it
along. On an interesting modern note, scientists tell us there are things, which harm our
86
bodies called free radicals. They cause the body to break down and eventually bring about
old age. You might think of these free radicals as unstable oxygen structures and their kin.
Where do they come from? Ultra-violet light shining on air causes free radical structures of
oxygen. Let us not forget our modern society also provides sources such as chemical
manufacturing plants, power plants, radiation, and excessive food processing, smoking and
being sick. Would it surprise you to hear that bee propolis is crammed full of things to
counteract free radicals? It is, they are called antioxidants. Now you understand why some
people take bee propolis each day. They typically use a capsule or twenty drops at each
meal. Oh yes, in parting there is something else you may wish to know. Bee propolis
contains many wondrous and wonderful individual components. As an example, bee propolis
liquid is being applied (the width of the person's hand) to the length of the spine daily to help
repair spinal cord injuries. Many modern day drugstore companies have isolated and
concentrated many individual parts from bee propolis and market each of them as the "most
active ingredient" in propolis. Don't you think if it were so, the bees would have made it that
way to begin with? The fact is, bee propolis varies wildly in its make up from one part of the
world to the next, but all of the parts together do the job as intended. You need all of the
parts of propolis to make it work right regardless of their differing proportions and
concentrations. That means that Bee Propolis is something more important with all of its
parts put together than any of its parts taken separately. This "bee glue" is a powerful
antibiotic and anti-putrefaction agent (coats and prevents dead and rotting cells from
spreading in the body so they can safely be removed). Can be used hourly as an antibiotic in
severe cases to regain a foothold on life.
DOSAGE: 20 to 40 drops three times per day or if no improvement, 40 drops per hour until
better.

BILBERRY
Vaccinium frondosum
PROPERTIES AND USES: Macular

Degeneration, white spots under nails, selenium,
iron, zinc, manganese, Vitamin C sources.
COMMON NAMES: Blue Whortleberry, Blue

Tangle, Bluets, Huckleberry.
PARTS USED: Berries.
BODILY INFLUENCES: (Huckleberry) In the

1920's the discoverer of Vitamin C, Albert
Giorgy, was concerned about the "spark of life" and where it came from. After years of
careful research he concluded it was Vitamin C that put and kept the spark of life in the body.
When food is eaten, Vitamin C is the substance that puts life back into the food to make it
part of the body's living tissue. We now know why Bilberries, Black Currants, Chippewa
Pine and Wild Rose Hips are used for so many different conditions to recover good health.
Bilberry is a good tasting berry that contains the much sought after natural Vitamin C.
Natural Vitamin C is not just one vitamin, it is many related Vitamin C's. Therefore, we call
it, more properly, Vitamin C "complex." Chemical Vitamin C, known as ascorbic acid, is just
one synthetic type of Vitamin C. Bilberries contain all of this naturally occurring complex
and the related substances found with it. The compounds Rutin, Hesperidin and
Bioflavonoids are found right along side the natural C "complex." These compounds are the
"glue" that sticks your body together so it does not fall apart. Bilberries affect rapid repair of
broken blood vessels and prevent them from breaking. Hence, you hear "take Bilberry to
prevent bruising." The result of taking the natural C "complex" and related substances
together as an extract is that of greater activity. They are far more active than a chemical
Vitamin C and you don't have to keep increasing the amount as with chemical Vitamin C to
get the same effect. In fact, historical evidence shows, Bilberries have been gratefully
acknowledged for a very impressive array of help. Many are the conditions that fall within
the influence of Bilberries. When we look at mineral sources, Bilberries are one of the
highest known sources of the mineral zinc and provide a generous source of iron, manganese
and selenium. Iron is required for energy, and both zinc and manganese are closely associated
with production of healthy connective tissue. Selenium takes special care to ensure proper
cell division and prevent harmful mutations. These prevented harmful mutations could very
well have been cancerous or "bad cells." If not out-right cancerous cells, then they might
have been seen by the body as "foreign protein," and set off a war between the body's
immune system and this "foreign protein." This is the case with conditions like osteoarthritis
and other autoimmune or allergic reactions where the body is fighting itself. According to
current nutritional research, both zinc and selenium (from natural food sources) are active in
ensuring proper cell division and the prevention of cancer cell formation. Bilberries are such
a valuable source of so many essential mineral complexes, it is no wonder then, that a long
list of healing actions have been recorded and attributed to this marvelous wild berry. Here is
a partial list: Bilberries are a tonic (good for all body systems), strengthen and restore
eyesight. It should be noted that many and persistent are the accounts of improvement in
88
eyesight through the use of Bilberries, including correction of macular or "fine-focus"

degeneration of the eye, repairs tiny blood vessels in the back of the eye, correct tonsillitis,
sore tongue, laryngitis, violent continuous diarrhea with blood loss, intestinal putrefaction,
bowel disorders, act as a bowel regulator, mouthwash, gargle, discourage roundworms, and
ease vomiting. Apply directly for skin problems and inflamed gums, gastric colitis, water
retention, typhoid fever, sore tongue with white patches, wound healing, rheumatism (sore
joints), bladder problems, gravel in urinary system and mucus in breathing passages. All in
all a very impressive champion of good health. Bilberries blend in with the body's natural
functions to give them all a boost and herein lies their secret.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops on or under the tongue three times per day or hourly if condition is
severe.
BISTORT
Polygonum bistorta
PROPERTIES AND USES: Dry coughs, expels

mucus, Vitamin C source.
COMMON NAMES: Patience Dock, Snake Weed,

Sweet Dock, Dragonwort, Red Legs, Easter Giant,
Officinal Bistort.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The dried rhizome

(underground
stem) of Bistort
was a favorite in
old-time cough medicines because of its expectorant
qualities (casts out diseased mucus from lungs and
respiratory tract). It is also a favorite for present day
coughs. Apply to throat, lungs and back three to four
times per day. Place a white towel on the chest and
back and wear with a high-necked natural fiber
undershirt to aid Bistort by conserving body heat to
break the congestion loose. Bistort is assisted in its
work by its antibiotic content of tannins (commonly
known as bitter astringents) and Vitamin C.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops hourly while awake and

externally as given above. Oil of Cajeput can be
applied also, along with Bistort in the same manner to
magnify the effect.
89
BITTER ORANGE
Citrus aurantium
PROPERTIES AND USES: Allergies,

hay fever, pollen, pollution, emotional
upsets, bronchitis, asthma.
COMMON NAMES: Sevile Orange,

Chongcao, Zhi Shi.
PARTS USED: Juice & Peals.
BODILY INFLUENCES: If you want to

breathe easier when troubled by allergies,
hay fever, pollen, pollution, emotional
upsets, bronchitis, asthma or the other torments that cause a restriction to your breathing,
consider using the herb, Bitter Orange. As a bonus you may find your energy levels,
concentration and circulation are better with the use of Bitter Orange. The scientific name
given to the most common type of Bitter Orange, in use by herbalists, is Citrus aurantium.
The Bitter Orange is especially prized for the problems we seek to correct. Although it is
called Bitter Orange, its immediate taste could be described as a pleasant taste of orange with
a little bit of bitter chocolate taste at the end. Altogether, it's not bad. Bitter Orange, as a
plant, was at home in China originally, but now grows wherever the climate is warm and
friendly enough. This gift from the Creator has been in continual use along the trade routes
of the Arabian traders since the 16th century. You can say it has been adequately "field
tested". In those parts of the world Bitter Orange is considered a food and is eaten in small
amounts as needed. Those who need and use this herb seem pretty satisfied with it. Bitter
Orange is one representative which has been repeated by enlightened practitioners down
through the corridors of time. The idea is: "We should let our food be our medicine and our
medicine be our food". Modern science has studied Bitter Orange to find out what is in it and
why it works so effectively. What they found is that it contains, among other compounds, a
bitter stimulant known as synephrine (suh-nef-ren). These compounds work together to open
troubled breathing passages and increase physical
activity without side effects! This is a Godsend
for those suffering with breathing and circulatory
problems. You may have to wait a few minutes
after taking Bitter Orange before you get its full
effect. Please Note: Some people use Bitter
Orange to assist weight loss by taking advantage
of its stimulant qualities. If so, this probably
should not be abused any more than one would
abuse coffee or tea for that purpose. There is a
difference between use and abuse and a person
does know the difference. Additionally,
experience with Bitter Orange from South
American folk usage indicates to use it when there
is trouble sleeping and for frazzled nerves. Traditional Chinese medicine also uses Bitter
Orange for indigestion, constipation and abdominal discomfort. American folk use says:
90
"For the desperate and adventuresome with trouble breathing, spray Bitter Orange extract
directly into the throat with a clean perfume atomizer (mist sprayer) and inhale." Relief is
swift and in some cases it may cause a violent discharge of thick mucus for two or three days,
which when endured, can stop future attacks.
DOSAGE: 40 drops under the tongue as needed.
BLACK COHOSH
Cimicifuga racemosa, L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Poison antidote, female

hormone, lowers blood pressure, promotes normal
hair growth, antispasmodic, sedative, support adrenal
gland function, meningitis (see: below), allergic
reactions.
COMMON NAMES: Bugbane, Bugwort, Rattleroot,

Black Snakeroot, Squawroot.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: As a poison antidote,

Black Cohosh has
several useful
functions. Its regular
use, and use in crisis,
can prevent allergic reactions and correct allergic reactions
of stings and bites from poisonous creatures of all kinds
(bees, mosquitoes, spiders, snakes, etc.). Also, as a poison
antidote to prevent colds and childhood illnesses or clear
them up. Black Cohosh absorbs and neutralizes the poisons
of disease so the body can heal itself. This is of special
importance with internal poisons from cysts, fistulas, boils,
carbuncles and acne. Menopause and its tortures and many
widespread female problems are handled routinely by Black
Cohosh. The action of
Black Cohosh on the
circulatory system is to
slow the heartbeat and strengthen its output as well as
increase the pulse strength. At the same time, it acts as an
arterial and nerve sedative which is most important to
reduce hypertension (nerve-induced high blood pressure)
and far safer than Digitalis. In folk medicine, it has long
been used as a fomentation, (cloth soaked in the extract
used externally) for headaches, sedative for upset nerves,
migraine, epilepsy, insomnia, meningitis (inflammation
and painful infection of membranes around brain and
spinal cord), painful menstruation and to ease labor.
91
DOSAGE: 10 to 60 drops three times per day. Apply the extract liberally to poisonous stings
and bites externally. If meningitis 10 to 60 drops hourly as needed and apply same to entire
spine, neck and temples.
NOTE: Some individuals are very sensitive and may develop a headache if too much is
taken, so start with 10 drops and gradually increase.
BLACK CURRANT
Ribes nigrum
PROPERTIES AND USES: Repair connective

tissue, arthritis, kidney and urinary system, gout,
Vitamin C-Complex, Fibromyalgia.
COMMON NAMES: Quinsy Berry.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Used for these

conditions: reducing fever, stomachache,
diarrhea, easing migraine headache, fatigue,

BLACK ROOT SEE: CULVER'S ROOT
92
BLACK WALNUT
Juglans nigra, L
PROPERTIES AND USES: Antibiotic, antiseptic,

tonic, vermifuge (antagonistic to parasites), lymphatic
cleaner, apply externally for brown hair color.
COMMON NAMES: Black Walnut, English Walnut,

Euopean Walnut.
PARTS USED: Hull (not shell), leaves, nutmeat

(nutritive).
BODILY INFLUENCES: The nutmeat has long

served as a nutrient of great value and contains the
valuable element Manganese said to encourage parental
behavior through proper body chemistry. Although the
leaves can be used, the dried, powdered hull is
possessed of greater activity. Widespread incidents of
various sorts of internal human parasites are now a
commonplace reality. Black Walnut hulls have a great strength which disables and
disintegrates parasites. In cases of general debility where parasites may masquerade as a host
of baffling symptoms it should be safe to assume that a person needs cleansing. Six months
to a year of daily use often shows dramatic results. Although this may seem slow, Black
Walnut kills the parasites and not the person, which is a distinct advantage. As iodine is
contained in this valuable hull, thyroid problems are often corrected at the same time and a
healthy loss of weight may result and a great sense of well-being returns as the thyroid
resumes normal function. A highly satisfactory douche can be prepared for multitudinous
infections in the female area. Black Walnut also reduces lymphatic swellings.
DOSAGE: 40 drops three times per day. 80 drops to one cup distilled water as a douche.
BLACK WALNUT MEATS
Juglans nigra, L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Cartilage repair,

hormone manufacturer, manganese, wrinkle
control.
COMMON NAMES: Black Walnut, English

Walnut, European Walnut.
PARTS USED: Nutrient inside of shell.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The good tasting nut

meat, especially Missouri Black Walnut meat, is a
good source of a vital trace element known as Manganese. White rats, when deprived of this
93
element in experimental diets, devour their young. Manganese is, for this reason, sometimes
referred to as the element of parental love. It is known that Manganese is essential for sex
hormone production and to activate various enzymes in the body. Fat and carbohydrate
production are influenced by Manganese; as well as normal bone development. Manganese is
essential for healthy connective tissue and should be thought of any time ligaments or
tendons are drawing up or shrinking and causing discomfort and resultant joint swelling.
Epilepsy, convulsions, poor muscle coordination and some forms of mental disorders are due
to nutritional disorders involving, at least in part, an inadequate supply of Manganese. These
conditions are labeled as various things, such as: genetically transmitted hyperactive, or
learning disabilities. Our agricultural soils no longer are dependable sources of Manganese,
nor are chemical fertilizers. It makes good sense to look to the undepleted forest soil where
Black Walnuts make their home, for nutmeats containing Manganese. It makes even more
good sense not to overlook a nutritional deficiency as a cause of a "mental disorder" before
assuming a more complex problem.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops three times per day.
BLADDER WRACK
Fucus versiculosus
PROPERTIES AND USES: Weight reduction, energy, colds, stress, iodine source,
pushes aluminum out of the brain and nervous system, improves memory.
COMMON NAMES: Sea Wrack, Bladder Fucus, Seaweed, Sea Oak, Kelpware, Black
Tany.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Sea vegetable used for weight reduction, nourishes thyroid to
normalize weight. Valuable major mineral and trace element source to stop fatty
degeneration of muscles, tones muscular system and heart muscle and reverses cellulite.
Used for "fat neck" (enlarged thyroid gland at base of neck) also known as goiter. Rids
body of Aluminum.
NOTE: Internal growing goiter may make it difficult to swallow although no external signs
are noted. Also used for chronic bladder irritation.
DOSAGE: 10 to 40 drops three times per day. If nervousness results, reduce the amount as
the thyroid is being stimulated too much. This condition corrects itself within a few hours.
BLESSED THISTLE
Centaurea benedicta
94
PROPERTIES AND USES: Oxygenator to brain, heart, lungs and blood system, promotes
mother's milk, chest complaints, catalyst,
energy and sense of well-being through
oxygenation, menopause, female puberty,
improve liver functions, good potassium
source.
COMMON NAMES: Holy Thistle.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Thistles are the

"poor man's" oxygen tent. Among those,
Blessed Thistle has gained for its distinction
the service of oxygenator to heart, lungs,
and brain. In disability of the lungs, added
oxygenation can often correct conditions
caused by congestive waste. Added
oxygenation to the heart allows fuel for the machinery to be used properly. Memory and body
function are aided greatly by proper oxygenation. When mother's milk is scant or slow in
starting, Blessed Thistle is the rescuing herb. (40 drops three times a day). For proper
development of the female body during teens or the specter of menopause, smoothes the road
(20 to 40 drops two to three times per day). Blessed Thistle serves as an activating agent and
catalyst for all other herbs. Blessed Thistle also shows remarkable activity for proper function
of that most valuable organ, the liver.
DOSAGE: 40 drops three times per day. 40 drops hourly if needed for shortness of breath.

BLUE COHOSH
Caulophyllum thalictroides

Hormone regulator, ease child
delivery, genetic taint, regulate
menstrual cycle, high in selenium.
COMMON NAMES: Squaw Root,

Pappoose Root. Blue Ginseng,
Yellow Ginseng.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Is found

in rich soil of the broad-leafed
forest. Its miniature, dusky, red
flowers and blue stems respond to
the first waves of spring before
everything else has leafed out. The
root knows its greatest service as a
woman's friend to nourish, regulate
and repair the reproductive system.
Hence, cramping, frequency of cycle, infections, and cleansing discharges are all part of its
job. During the last two weeks of pregnancy, it is used for easy delivery. In the case where
the young woman's menstrual cycle has
been suppressed, use Blue Cohosh.
"Epilepsy" and seizures have also responded
to this herb to restore proper brain function.
Nor can we overlook its application for
bronchial irritation and sore joints for both
men and women. Consider Blue Cohosh to
rid the body of "venereal taint" which may
have been passed on from one generation to
another or contracted more recently. When a
virus or germ of a venereal nature
contaminates the body cells and is not
completely eradicated, it may become a part
of the genetic material and masquerade as
many kinds of baffling and seemingly
unrelated disorders. It is here Blue Cohosh may be relied upon to give relief by working on
the actual cause in such baffling cases.
DOSAGE: 40 drops per day, starting 10 days before and during menstruation. In severe
cases, 40 to 80 drops three times per day after meals. To start the cycle where it has been
96
suppressed, the same is recommended. For seizures or sore joints, 40 drops three times per
day after meals. For easy delivery apply to the abdomen.
BLUE FLAG
Iris versicolor
PROPERTIES AND USES: Powerful

lymphatic cleanser, liver regulator, dropsy
(fluid accumulation), swollen lymph glands,
cysts, torpid liver (lazy, clogged liver).
COMMON NAMES: Iridaceae Orris

Root, Iris florentina, Flag Lily, Water Lily,
Snake Lily, Poison Flag, Slender Blue Flag,
Blue Iris, Vegetable Mercury Plant, Dragon
Flower, Flower-de-Luce, Dagger Flower.
PARTS USED: Dried rhizome

(underground stem) and roots.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The spectacular

beauty of this iris is common throughout the
U.S. Its presence adds a calming touch to
the landscape. The root and underground
stem afford us with a material capable of
exerting a tremendous influence on all body
fluids, digestive juices, blood stream,
urinary flow, alimentary canal, glandular
secretions and especially the lymphatics.
Because of its great energies, it is often
combined with other herbs to actually slow
its function to prevent momentary
discomforts during the cleansing process. In
the goal of longevity, the Blue Flag finds its
greatest role in the service of clean body
fluid.
NOTE: The properties discussed above are

for only the Wild Blue Iris and Orris Root
(Iris versicolor and Iris florentina). No other
varieties.
DOSAGE: One to five drops twice per day.

Start with one drop twice per day.

BODILY INFLUENCES: When the pace of life pushes a

•
person instead of them controlling it, Blue Vervain can often .
help a person obtain a calmer condition and the world appears

less disturbing. In conditions of flabbiness and unambitious
circulation, new vigor is afforded. The circulatory effect on the Blue Vervain
lymphatics is also greatly beneficial. Obstructions of circulation

to the brain are removed and consequently the longstanding
reputation of correcting epilepsy has been recorded. Obstructing
kidney stones can be corrected through the efficient use of Blue
Vervain. Also good for skin complaints due to nerves and as a remedy to poison oak, helps
clean out afterbirth. Blue Vervain deserves great praise.
DOSAGE: 10 to 40 drops three to four times per day taken internally on the tongue or
externally applied. Spray on area as needed and take internally if poison oak. For removing
afterbirth one teaspoon hourly as needed.
BONESET
Eupatorium pelfoliatum
PROPERTIES AND USES: Viral flu, fevers,

builds immunity, Inteferon production.
COMMON NAMES: Thoroughwort, Teasel,

Ague Weed, Joe Pye, Fever Wort, Thorough Stem,
Thorough Wax, Cross Wort, Wood Boneset,
Vegetable Antimony, Sweating Plant, Indian Sage,
Tea ral.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Is a gift of Native

American Indian medicine, much appreciated by
those who pioneered and settled the West, to correct colds, flu and what we know now were
98
virus conditions. Boneset is especially helpful in viral flu and fevers with aching bones and
muscles and bowel pain. One teaspoon of Boneset extract to one cup of hot water (preferably
distilled or spring water, not tap water) taken hourly until relief. Then, 3 to 4 times daily until
all symptoms are gone. Boneset encourages sweating to reduce fever and discomfort by
expelling poisons and cooling. Modern investigative evidence does indeed reveal that
Boneset causes the body to produce a substance in the liver called interferon, which, in turn,
causes proteins to be made by the body cells that cause the destruction of viruses.
DOSAGE: To avoid viral conditions such as described above, take a maintenance dosage of
40 to 80 drops per day. For others, use as given above.
BORAGE
Borago officinalis
PROPERTIES AND USES: Joy, calcium

source, potassium source.
COMMON NAMES: Burrage, Bugloss.
PARTS USED: Leaves.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The ancient

Greeks, Romans and later, English herbalists,
made frequent use of its valued properties.
Aside from being a popular flavoring in
cooking and special dishes, Borage has been
continually associated with "joy in the mind"
to whomever shall use it, unless you are
already so happy you can't notice it. It carries the title of "protector of the heart" and the
reputation of "purging (driving) sadness and melancholy from the heart." Its rich storehouse
of the easily absorbable minerals: calcium, potassium and various other "mineral salts"
enliven the blood stream and deliver energy to the cells. When you feel well it is difficult to
feel sadness. Borage is recognized today as also being an effective remedy for heaviness and
discomfort of the chest and throat.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops hourly, as needed. Apply an equal amount to throat and or chest
BRAIN & NERVE COCKTAIL—W (B. & N.C.-W)
PROPERTIES AND USES: Brain and Nervous System Cocktail, Brain and autonomic
nervous system (automatic controls) regeneration, regeneration and maintenance of brain and
nerve tissue which coordinate the body and the physical function of memory.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The brain is a part of the nervous system and its electrical
functions can be upset. The brain, along with a great deal of nerve material in the spine,
autonomic (involuntary) nervous system and the rest of the body is responsible for receiving
and sending information to body parts. The brain is a body control organ with glands in it and
99
is not mysterious. It is a nerve, message transmission center and is more liquid than even the
blood. Both the brain and the nerve material in the rest of the body receive and send
information and commands. The autonomic nervous system running along each side of the
spinal column functions to a great degree automatically to coordinate many organs and
glands. The spinal nerves all by themselves can cause you to take your hand off a hot stove
without having to think about it first. The control center of the brain (hypothalmus, pituitary
and the pineal complex), when functioning properly, can greatly assist the recovery of the
failing body. It should not be neglected in a nutritional program because when the glands of
the brain work properly, then the brain cells,
nerves and organs can work properly. This
combination of herbs provides Alfalfa to clean
and feed the pituitary, Barberry for the
hypothalamus, Chamomile for the pineal
gland, Gotu Kola (does not contain caffeine)
for the entire brain and memory, Parsley for
the involuntary nervous system and Black
Walnut with its cleaning and corrective
electrical properties for all of the nerve
tissues. It is for that reason we use the herbal
combination, Parsley and Black Walnut for
the autonomic nervous system; Scullcap for
regeneration of all nerve tissue; Barberry and Yellow Chamomile sp.
Gotu Kola for hypothalamus; Alfalfa to clean Photograph by Barbara Jacobs
and feed. Contrary to some "rigid opinions,"

many herbalists are pleased to report that nerves and brain cells do regenerate with very
satisfactory results. In cases of nerve and/or brain damage as well as just maintenance of
these structures in a healthy condition, the brain and nerve herbal combination should be
considered. If you don't know what else to do, clean the blood and bowel. Clean and nourish
the nervous system and repair it at the same time. The brain and nervous system function
better when they are clean and nourished. You will feel better. People seldom eat any food
for the purpose of a body part or parts. They eat their food with their tongue and eyes. You
can be different and consciously eat something just for your brain and nerves. B. & N.C.-W
can also be of assistance in getting off drugs.
COMBINATION: Alfalfa, Parsley, Chamomile, Gotu Kola, Barberry, Black Walnut.
DOSAGE: 20 to 40 drops at each meal depending on severity of case. 20 to 40 drops at each

meal for maintenance. For external use, first apply Vitamin E oil, from 100 or 400 i.u.
capsules, on the affected area, then use gauze or cotton soaked in the extract and place on the
area. Cover with plastic wrap on top of the gauze and hold with an additional wrap overnight.
If head area, then rub Vitamin E into scalp followed by one tablespoon of B. & N.C.-W on
the scalp, also rub on temples, around the ears and back on the neck in quantities needed,
three times per day and wear shower cap overnight. In the daytime, apply Herbal Adjustment
twice per day to the scalp.

BREWER'S YEAST
Saccharomyces cerevisiae
PROPERTIES AND USES: Allergies, calm nerves, sense of well-being, energy, high
and low blood sugar, allows cells to digest glucose, cracks at mouth corners, sore tongue,
trouble sleeping when tired, stress, Vitamin B-Complex, protein, Chromium source for
insulin source.
COMMON NAMES: Brewer's Yeast.

PARTS USED: The microscopic part.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Brewer's Yeast is a microscopic plant without chlorophyll
(green colored structures in plants that eat light as their food). Therefore, it must have
much the same right kinds of foods you do to live on. By feeding yeast a good diet
(things you might not eat) and letting them grow, they assemble a rich natural mineral
complex and manufacture the entire Vitamin B complex of vitamins. By making an
extract of Brewer's Yeast cells, which involves removing their cellular contents from their
external covering, we obtain their treasures on which we can run our bodies. The nerves
can carry messages properly, the brain functions properly, our emotional environment
stabilizes and life is pleasurable again. Natural energy levels soar. Hypoglycemia (low
blood sugar) is stabilized by the beautiful protein profiles provided by Brewer's Yeast,
as well as a complete natural profile of B-Complex Vitamins. Diabetes, or high blood
sugar, is likewise favorably influenced by the same properties. Brewer's Yeast also has an
additional property to correct pancreatic function. When the diet has chromium restored to
it the pancreas, in many cases, will again make the hormone insulin needed for the
digestion of blood sugar. And, Brewer's Yeast just happens to be one of the best, most
reliable and easily obtained sources of organic chromium. The tongue is a very sensitive
indicator for what is going on in the body, much like looking at a "dip-stick" of an
automobile. Sore tongue, red tongue, black tongue, groove down the center of the tongue,
vertical lines in the lower lip, loss of upper lip, scalloped tongue (where teeth
indentations are shown on the side of the tongue) and cracks at the sides of the mouth
corners disappear. Persist no matter what, until the condition is corrected. Correcting these
abnormalities of the tongue has a much greater effect on the entire nervous system and brain
than just the cosmetic effect, which is seen.
DOSAGE: 40 drops to 80 drops three times per day.
BUCHU
Barosma betulina
PROPERTIES AND USES: Aromatic, stimulant, diuretic, diaphoretic (encourage
sweating out poisons), carminative (relieves gas), urogenital system (urinary tract &
reproductive organs), prostate, kidney and lower back pains, potassium.
COMMON NAMES: Bookoo, Bucku, Oval Buchu, Buccu, Short Buchu.
PARTS USED: Leaves.
101
BODILY INFLUENCES: This jewel among herbs makes its home in one of the most
desolate deserts in the world, in Southern Africa, the Kalahari Desert. In that tortured
environment, it develops its great strength to relieve kidney, bladder, prostate, uterus
discomfort and lower back pain. Buchu is quick in its action. Buchu finds its primary
application in urinary and reproductive system problems (both male and female). It is
helpful in painful urination and for inflammation, gravel, and infected mucus of the bladder.
It is effective in leucorrhoea (whitish mucus-pus female discharge) and is a stomachic and
stimulant tonic. Most effective in kidney support and is an excellent source of herbal
potassium.
DOSAGE: 10, 20 or 40 drops three times a day.
BUCKTHORN
Rhamnusrat
L_ist
PROPERTIES AND USES: Gentle bowel cleaner,

regularity, itching, warts, restore normal Probiotics
(flora).
COMMON NAMES: Black Dogwood, Black Alder

Dogwood, Alder Buckthorn, Black Alder Tree,
Persian Berries, European Black Alder.
PARTS USED: Bark
BODILY INFLUENCES: An excellent, non-habit

forming, laxative and bowel cleaner. Not quite as
strong as Cascara Sagrada (also a wonderful bowel
cleaner). An aid to restore proper bowel flora
(helpful bacteria) which prevent many contagious
illnesses. These normally occurring helpful flora
(bacteria), are encouraged by the use of Buckthorn, and manufacture the B Vitamins &
antibodies (natural substances that promote immunity), which act much like a natural
vaccination against a multitude of illnesses. Take with a dietary source of fiber, such as eight
to twelve capsules of Alfalfa or raw chopped carrots or Oat Bran daily. To get rid of warts, or
itching skin, take Buckthorn internally and externally. Internal cleansing eliminates the cause.
For itching conditions, rub Buckthorn Extract into the area 3 to 4 times per day. Hourly, if
problem is severe. If drying of skin is a problem with use of extracts, apply Vitamin E oil
from 100 or 400 i.u. (international units) capsules as needed. For intensive action, apply
Vitamin E oil first to the skin, then a pad of gauze or cheese cloth material soaked with the
extract, cover with plastic and leave on overnight. Clean the area and allow the area to dry
before repeating the application for the daytime. Change morning and night. Persist until the
condition is corrected. Buckthorn is your friend.
DOSAGE: For internal cleansing and bowel regularity, 40 drops to one teaspoon, each night
before retiring, increase to one tablespoon in juice, if needed to blast things loose.

Bugleweed - Lycopus virginicus
Photograph by Barbara Jacobs BODILY INFLUENCES: Bugleweed was rediscovered
during the latter part of the 20th century by a great living,
Amish herbalist, Solomon Wickey, for heart conditions. Acts chiefly on blood vessels to
relax them to normal size, while healing inflammation of the blood vessel caused by heart
problems, self-intoxication (poisons generated internally) and chronically deteriorated hearts.
The action of Bugleweed on the heart itself is to reduce the pulse to a normal speed and add
power to each heart contraction. All this, with no harmful side effects. Additionally, we have
here an excellent tonic for the whole system, which settles the stomach and normalizes the
appetite. Well before 1880, Bugleweed was used for relief of insomnia, curing diabetes and
correcting "egg-white" in the urine (albuminuria). Bugleweed stops hemorrhaging of blood
from lungs and intestinal hemorrhaging with blood in the stool. Bugleweed reduces irritation
to the intestine from diarrhea and stops diarrhea. Bugleweed expels mucus and pus from
lungs due to old, chronic, dry coughs, and is a recognized tuberculosis remedy. It has often
been said that using Bugleweed is like having a combination of the herbs Fox Glove
(digitalis), Blood Root (Red Root), Black Cohosh and Wormgrass.
DOSAGE: 10 to 40 drops after each meal or every four hours while awake during crisis
period. Bugleweed can also be rubbed on the chest and back several times a day to amplify
and assist its internal use.
BURDOCK
Arctium lappa, L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Blood cleaner, hair,

liver cleaner, stubborn skin problems, "Shingles."
COMMON NAMES: Clotbur, Grass Burdock,

Bardana, Burr Seed, Hardock, Hareburr, Hurr
Burr, Turkey Bur Seed.
PARTS USED: Root, Seeds, Whole Plant.
103
BODILY INFLUENCES: Skin dis-eases of all kinds can be corrected by the use of this
herb. Take internally and apply externally. Take long enough,
until the skin clears up. Beautiful liver cleaner. Tonic. Clears up
swelling and hard spots of the liver, which can be felt by pressing
the area at the bottom of the ribs from one side of the body to the
other. Strengthens hair growth after six to eight months of use.
Mix with half Yellow Dock extract and apply to painful skin
blisters known as "shingles" which follow the nerve tracts
(pathways) around the waist. If dry skin, eczema, acne, boils, or
sties on eyelids or congested lymphatics are your problem, Burdock
Burdock is your herb. Arctium lappa, L
Photograph by
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops three times per day. Take with a good
Dr. Eugene C. Watkins
bowel program (see: Buckthorn or Cascara Sagrada or C.C.E.-W)
to remove the offensive wastes, which Burdock is loosening up
and dissolving. Make sure the bowels are moving at least two and preferably three times per
day to prevent "sick feeling."
BURNING BUSH SEE: WAHOO
BUTCHER'S BROOM
Ruscus aculeatus
PROPERTIES AND USES: Repair bones and soft

tissue, shrink varicose veins.
COMMON NAMES: Sweet Broom Root, Knee Holly.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Formerly used as a broom

by meat cutters to "cleanse" their meat block and
prevent sickness. Antiseptic, antibiotic herb much like the herb Knitbone (Comfrey) in its
action to rapidly heal injuries and broken bones.
DOSAGE: Apply liberally, every two hours while awake, on the area, which needs repair, if
accessible, until repaired. Internally take one teaspoon to one tablespoon three to four times
per day, depending on the severity of the case. For daily maintenance of healthy body,
structures or building strength, 20 to 40 drops per day.

CALENDULA
Calendula officinalis
PROPERTIES AND USES: Cancer and tumors,

blood cleanser, circulatory corrective, wounds,
varicose veins, gums, frostbite, fistula, athlete's
foot, skin pigment disorders, diarrhea.
COMMON NAMES: Garden Marigold,

Calendula - Calendula officinalis
Holigold, Mary Bud, Port Marigold.
Photograph by Dr. Eugene C. Watkins
PARTS USED: Leaves and Flowers.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Salves and extracts of this plant, the original Marigold (not the
garden variety), have been in use in Europe for centuries with
great affection and appreciation. For correction of skin
problems such as varicose veins and cancers, too much or no
pigment of skin, frostbite and athlete's foot, Calendula is used
in the following manner: Apply Vitamin E oil from 100 or
400 i.u. capsule(s) to the affected area. Soak gauze in the
extract and apply over the area, cover with plastic sandwich 4
wrap and a cloth wrap to hold all in place. Change once each
day but allow area to dry between applications. Taken
internally, it has proven effective for jaundice, water
retention, pockets of the colon and stomach problems, as well
as viral and bacterial invasion. Many reports from Germany Calendula - Calendula officinalis
and Austria indicate strengthened vision from continued use. Photograph by Barbara Jacobs
Operation wounds are also corrected by external applications.
DOSAGE: 5 to 20 drops internally three times per day or externally as needed.
CAPSICUM
Capsicum frutescen, L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Stimulant, diaphoretic

(causes sweating), condiment (seasoning), aperients
(expels gas), hemostatic (stops unnatural bleeding),
energizer, calmative, cleaner.
COMMON NAMES: African Birdseye Red, Red Pepper,

Bird Pepper, African Pepper.
PARTS USED: The fruit.
BODILY INFLUENCES: This is probably the most

effective and harmless stimulant in the herbal kingdom.
People today often complain of not having enough energy.
105
Capsicum produces an immediate effect of heat and energy. It is not known to actually burn
or blister, although in pure strength, may taste like "liquid fire." The renowned doctor and
surgeon, William Beaumont, observed, in his now classic observations of the stomach
through a hole, which formed after a gunshot wound to a young fur trapper, that Capsicum
does not irritate in any way the lining of the human stomach, despite its sensation of great
heat. That Capsicum cleans infected mucus from the stomach, digestive tract, circulatory
system and other organs should be understood. It does not produce mucus. Increased
circulation to the stomach gives it a healthy pink glow, not to be mistaken for irritation.
Indeed, Capsicum is used by the Mormons and the people of the Balkan countries to heal
bleeding ulcers of the stomach. Capsicum stops the flow of all unnatural bleeding within
seconds. It may be administered internally or externally with the same results. To stop heart
attacks, immediately drink 40 to 80 drops of the extract in a cup of water. The heart attack
will stop in short order. A powerful influence is exerted at the same time over the nervous
system to produce a great calm of abundant energy.
NOTE: Capsicum will stop bleeding of all unnatural types internally and externally, but will
not stop menstrual bleeding or internal bleeding of a cleansing nature. Much gas is often
expelled as Capsicum works to restore order, thus headaches are also commonly relieved.
The U.S. Dispensatory Part I recommends Capsicum as a totally workable remedy for
malignant sore throats and also as a gargle. The best action of Capsicum is prolonged by the
addition of a catalyst herb. Hence, Capsicum is often combined with other herbs as in the
Herbal Adjustment (see: listing for Herbal Adjustment). It is also strongly recommended by
the U.S. Dispensatory for local application for joint pains especially due to rheumatism.
Capsicum should be a part of every home emergency kit and its regular use as a food cannot
be too strongly recommended.
DOSAGE: 20 to 40 drops of the extract, diluted in a cup of water, as often as needed or

apply externally as given above. If contact with eyes or private areas, don't panic, or be
frightened. Flush with water and be patient, calm and peace will return.
CARPENTER'S SQUARE
Scrophularia nodosa
PROPERTIES AND USES: Spleen, tonsils.
COMMON NAMES: Figwort, Knotty Rooted Figwort,

Kernelwort, Scrofula Plant.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: A member of the mint

family, with a square stem. Excellent lymphatic cleaner
- cleans spleen and tonsils. To remove fig warts from
bottom of foot, open capsules of Vitamin E 100 or
400 i.u. (international units) and apply to the sole of the
foot. Soak two layers of cheese cloth or absorbent gauze
with Carpenter's Square extract and lay this over the
106
offending area, then cover this with plastic sandwich wrap and finally wrap a cloth around
the foot to hold all in place. Repeat morning and night until corrected. Wash the area each
time between applications and allow to dry before putting on a fresh application.
DOSAGE: To clean lymphatic tissues listed above, 40 drops per meal three times per day.
CARROT ROOT
Daucus carota

Nourishes skin, Vitamin A source,
nourish eyes, helps maintain
eyesight, cancer (bad cells),
cleans out all hollow organs.
COMMON NAMES: Bee's Nest

Plant, Bird's Nest Root, Garden
Carrot.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES:
Organically raised (without
chemical fertilizers and poison sprays) on a healthy natural soil, Carrot Roots are a
dependable vegetable source of Beta-Carotene (Vitamin A) for healthy eyes and skin. It is
safe to assume, if there is any kind of problem with the eyes or skin (internal or external
skin) then extra Vitamin A should be taken. Vitamin A has a major assignment to keep all
internal surfaces clean and function as a natural anti-biotic. Clean surfaces work better;
hence, the acknowledged role of Vitamin A in preventing premature aging, liquifying and
draining sinuses, gallbladders, draining abscesses, broom to sweep all hollow organs clean,
etc. And here is the beautiful part, not a single patient has ever been lost by "O.D.-ing"
(Over-Dosing) on carrot juice, which is of course, loaded with vegetable Vitamin A. The
same cannot be said for synthetic Vitamin A. Vegetable Vitamin A or Beta-Carotene is
actually a double Vitamin A and must be broken in half to become active. The body will
break down only as much as it needs. There are numerous recorded cases of people living
exclusively on organic carrot root juice until their "incurable" cancers were cured. We are
talking here of going well beyond any scientifically recommended allowance. When this is
done, Vitamin A assumes an extended role and greatly strengthens the Thymus gland for
excellent immunity levels. We know then, that proper intake of Vitamin A plays a vital
maintenance role in keeping the body free of "bad cells" and, as such, it is an essential part of
any diet.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops three times per day. Carrot Root juice recommendations as given
above.
107
CASCARA SAGRADA
Rhamnus purshiana, D.C.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Baffling disorders,

bowel cleaner-regularity.
COMMON NAMES: Sacred Bark, Purschiana

Bark, Persiana Bark, Chittam Bark.
PARTS USED: Bark.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The bark of this wonderful tree provides us with one of the most
wonderful bowel cleaners found in nature. Its name, in Spanish, means bark-sacred or sacred
bark. This is as natural a solution to bowel problems as you can find. This is what animals in
nature nibble on to stay regular. Cascara Sagrada gives the bowel the strength to move. A few
drops of the tea on the exposed intestines of a recently sacrificed laboratory white rat will
cause the intestines to move. You can imagine what it can do for a live person. Responsible
people enjoy the benefit of this herb to obtain one easy and complete bowel movement per
meal just as was intended by nature. Bowel wastes
removed more frequently in this way, prevent all
manner of mischief, including prostate problems,
uterus problems, bladder and urinary tract disorders, -
hysterectomy, ear, throat, lung, liver, eye, sinus and -
cold infections, etc. Bowel wastes, when not

frequently eliminated, are reabsorbed from the colon
into the rest of the body and seek to be eliminated
through emergency exits such as skin, lungs, ears,
throat, sinuses, etc. You could tear out and throw
away fully one third of all the so-called "diseases"
of medical books with the practice of good bowel
management. Even, if you did make Cascara Cascara Sagrada - Rhamnus purshiana, D.C.
Sagrada a habit, so what. It would be a good habit. Photograph by Dr. Eugene C. Watkins
Then energy surges back into the body as a side
effect of good bowel management. The body no
longer has to try to deal with backed-up bowel poisons and a new and better day does dawn.
DOSAGE: Evening or before breakfast, 40 to 80 drops or more in juice (Cascara Sagrada is

bitter) as needed to promote one bowel movement per meal. If chronic constipation increase
to a tablespoon each evening, if needed, to blast things loose. If capsules are preferred, one to
four capsules instead. A good idea is to start with one capsule and work your way upward as
needed and desired.
CAT'S CLAW SEE: UNA DE GATO
108
CATNIP
Nepeta cataria L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Stimulant, tonic,

antispasmodic, normalizes blood pressure, decreases the
desire for cigarettes, carminative (dispels abdominal gas).
COMMON NAMES: Catnep, Catmint, Cat's Wort.
PARTS USED: Herb, leaves.
BODILY INFLUENCES: For parents whose children or

babies experience colic (spastic gas pains) Catnip is a
Godsend. Often a child will scream with discomfort and
cannot even tell the parents what's wrong. The extract is
applied generously to the back and the abdominal area. By putting drops on the tongue as
needed, tormenting gas will be rapidly expelled from the body. In cases of high blood
pressure where arteries are nervously cramped, Catnip is swift and effective. Those desiring
to quit cigarettes may do so by placing several drops on the back of the tongue anytime a
cigarette is desired. Although domestic cats go a little looney in the scent of catnip, or when
eating it, be assured just the opposite is true with people.
DOSAGE: Five to 20 drops three times a day or as needed. In cases of high blood pressure,
40 drops three times per day.
CEDAR BERRIES
(Single-Seeded Cedar Berry)
(Juniperus monosperma)
PROPERTIES AND USES: Supports and corrects

pancreatic function, sustains immunity, dissolves
"bad cells."
COMMON NAMES: Single Seeded Cedar Berry.
PARTS USED: Seeds and pods.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The Cedar Berry tree is

a needle bearing tree and an evergreen that lives in the American Southwest. Think Texas,
New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Colorado and you have the picture of where it is at home. It is a
tough, hardy competitor able to persist on poor soil where other trees can not. It ranges in
size from that of a shrub to up to 30 feet tall if it has enough water and better soil. "Out
West," its common name is the "Single-Seeded Cedar Berry" tree. There are two kinds of
Cedar Berry trees. One kind has the female flowers on it and the other kind has the male
flowers on it. The flowers on the female trees produce a small waxy seed pod with a single
seed in it. That is the part which we use. Under the stomach and liver is a carrot shaped
organ/gland called the pancreas. It empties its digestive juices from its blunt end into the
109
small intestine. This is very important to the digestion. When the pancreas itself gets sick,
you need a no nonsense remedy. We use the seed and its pod from the Cedar Berry tree for
that purpose. This remedy was found out of sheer desperation by Dr. John Raymond
Christopher from Utah after much prayer and fasting. His search was for something to repair
a pancreas that had "bad cells" in it. This is a very serious condition because the pancreas is
the main digestive organ and normally eats up any "bad cells" that occur in the body. You
can imagine the panic, if the organ you rely on to eat up malignant "bad cells," is itself being
eaten up. In practice he proved the value of this remedy of the Single-Seeded Cedar Berry
and shared it with all of us. Along with this remedy, he gave us the wisdom to restore the
function of the pancreas so the pancreas will eat up the "bad cells" in itself and anywhere else
in the body.
DOSAGE: 1 teaspoon per meal.
NOTE: As always make sure there are two or more bowel movements per 24 hours so that
debris can be removed from the body.
CELANDINE
Chelidonium majus
PROPERTIES AND USES: Eye problems,

jaundice, pass urine, insomnia.
COMMON NAMES: Tetterwort, Garden

Celandine.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Celandine is

diuretic (removes excess fluid) and
purgative (bowel purge). Recommended for rheumatism and gout sufferers caused by kidney
trouble. It is a specific for liver disease such as jaundice and for inflammation of this very
vital organ that has been called "the chemical works" of the body, as well as for swelling of
the gallbladder, rub over kidneys to pass urine. As a sedative, helps induce sleep and relieves
spasms. Advised in cases of insomnia, anxiety, asthma, bad nerves, or for chronic bronchitis.
Helpful for people suffering from serious allergies and for conditions that can lead to
hardening of the arteries and to angina. Persistent reports of restoring sight and improvement
of vision continue to be heard. Perhaps the most dramatic is that of the parent bird rubbing a
Celandine leaf into the empty eye sockets of their young when crows and other predatory
birds have pecked them out. These same reports indicated continuous attention of this nature
causes the eyes of the baby birds to grow back. The Russian Herbalist Denissenko claimed
many cases of cancer cure with the use of Celandine, by rubbing over the area externally to
break shell.
DOSAGE: EXTERNAL USE ONLY as some individuals may be sensitive. Use in amounts
needed to cover the area being corrected. Apply three times per day.
110
CELERY SEED
Apium graveolens
PROPERTIES AND USES: Eases heart, lungs,

kidneys, joint and muscle problems, potassium source.
COMMON NAMES: Wild Celery, Garden Celery,

Smallage.
PARTS USED: Seed.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Is a powerful diuretic

(removes excess body fluid) for swollen conditions. The excess fluid exits through the urine
and skin, and lungs and bowels. This eases the heart and lungs and kidneys, so they do not
have to work in such a fluid cramped space. Not surprisingly, many joint and muscle
problems clear up as Celery Seed takes out the irritating wastes, along with the water the
body has been retaining, in an attempt to dilute the wastes to make them less harmful.
DOSAGE: 40 drops to 1 teaspoonful three times per day.
CHAMOMILE
Matricaria chamomilla, L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Any kind of

childhood or baby's complaints, especially fever
and teething, nervine for all ages.
COMMON NAMES: Garden Chamomile,

Roman Chamomile, Ground Apple, Pinheads,
Whip Plant, Manzanilla, Low Chamomile.
PARTS USED: Flowers and herbs.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Chamomile has been

used effectively to release a person from the
addiction of various drugs such as smoking
tobacco, alcohol and many others. Chamomile
gives a person a calm feeling without itself becoming an addiction. It has been used since
Roman times with no recorded ill effects. This plant truly belongs to the people and anyone,
who would try to take it from you, probably doesn't like anybody, including themselves, very
much. Roman ladies used Chamomile externally as a rinse for the hair to bring out blond
highlights. Among chamomile's many virtues are calming an irritated stomach and at the
same time softening the skin externally. Applications of an herb or herbs on cloth in liquid
form, as in this case a mixture of Chamomile, Knitbone and apple cider vinegar, on a cloth is
called a fomentation. This mixture is used for bruises, sprains and prevention of gangrene.
When a sudden cold or fever besets the child or baby, then the cooling blue principle of
Chamomile is the friend to reach for. Measles, stomach pain, teething, earache, colic
111
(abdominal gas pains) and convulsion require Chamomile. The extract can be rubbed on the
gums of baby when 'teething" and on the abdomen for gas. When convulsions occur, the
extract can be applied directly to the spine and the back of the head. For the ear, coat the
inside of the ear canal with Vitamin E oil, from a 100 or 400 i.u. capsule, and then insert a
cotton ball soaked in the extract. Also apply the extract externally all around the ear "shell"
and over the temples and forehead. In all the above cases, multiple applications can be made
one after the other according to the severity of the case. From the cradle to "check-out time".
Chamomile is your faithful and willing-to-help companion.
DOSAGE: Babies, 4 to 10 drops as needed internally, in crisis situation give internally and
then apply successive applications until relief is obtained. For relief of smoking or drugs in
adults (who really seek relief), 10 to 60 drops as needed on or under the tongue any time
drugs are desired. For external applications, soak gauze in the extract and cover the area,
cover gauze with plastic and hold in place with a cloth wrap.
CHAPPARAL SEE: GREASE WOOD
CHASTE TREE BERRY
Vitex agnus-castus
PROPERTIES AND USES: Menopause, normalize

desire, adaptogen, handles many conditions.
COMMON NAMES: Agnus castus, Tree of Chastity.
PARTS USED: Bark, Seed, Berries, Leaves.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The berries of this shrub

or small tree, growing wild and cultivated as an
ornamental around the Mediterranean sea, are used for
relief of premenstrual symptoms, excessive bleeding,
fibroid tumors due to hormonal imbalance; to start the
normal menstrual cycle again after discontinuing birth
control tablets, for the flow of milk in nursing mothers
and for menopausal torments. Additionally, the
berries have been used, since ancient Greek times, to quiet sexual appetites. It is this diversity
of function that leads to the conclusion that Chaste Tree Berries must act as an adaptogen,
that is to say, function in several discretionary ways depending on what is found and needed,
interacting with the internal physical and emotional environment of the person. Otherwise,
herbalists could not recommend, with success, Chaste Tree Berries, for such diverse and
apparently conflicting reasons (what is needed during menopause is not what is needed for
premenstrual symptoms, nor what is needed to quiet sexual desire). Recent clinical
experience from Germany indicates Chaste Tree Berries do indeed cause the production or
reduction of any of several female hormones, depending on what is needed and what must be
balanced out to promote proper function and comfort.
112
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops one to three times per day. Additionally, apply similar amounts
externally to the lower abdomen and or breasts.
CHESTNUT LEAF
Castanea dentata Mill.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Varicose

veins, hemorrhoids, blood thinner,
dissolves and prevents blood clots.
COMMON NAMES: Chestnut Leaf
PARTS USED: Leaves.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Take for

inflammation of blood vessels and or
clots due to injury or surgery. Take
before surgery to prevent blood clot
formation. Corrects circulatory problems
to the brain when the arteries in the neck
are clogged or clogging up. Take to
correct stroke damage to blood vessels
or damaged blood vessels anywhere in the body including hemorrhoids. Also provides a good
source of choline (one of the B vitamins known to dissolve cholesterol).
DOSAGE: Apply externally and liberally to the

troubled area three times per day and/or internally
20 to 40 drops two to three times per day until the
condition is corrected. Use with a good bowel
program to eliminate the wastes loosened and
dissolved in the
process of repair
vq, and cleaning. (See:
Cascara Sagrada,
Buckthorn or
C.C.E.-W). If
hemorrhoids, be
sure to use a
rounded teaspoon
lip of Psyllium hulls
or seed stirred into
Horse Chestnut
a large glass of
Aesculus hippocastanum
water and drink the
Photograph by Barbara Jacobs mixture each
' evening to keep
the stool soft and prevent irritation. If capsules of Psyllium are preferred take six to eight
capsules with a large glass of water. Also use 40 to 80 drops of Ginger Extract at each meal
to prevent gas and or rapidly expel the same.
113
CHICKWEED
Stellaria media
PROPERTIES AND USES: Contact healer,

refrigerant, emollient (soother and softener), discutient
(dissolves fat and tumors), weight loss, high iron.
COMMON NAMES: Scarwort, Satinflower, Starweed,

Stitchwort, Huehnerbliss.
PARTS USED: The whole herb.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Chickweed is one of the all-

purpose herbs. It
has the effect of soothing and healing whatever it comes
in contact with. It has been used on shrunken tissues
such as the drawing up of the fingers where tendons will
not relax. Congestion of the liver is often opened up
with Chickweed by internal and external use. The
ranges of chest troubles covered include pleurisy,
coughs, colds, bronchitis, and hoarseness. In addition to
this, the list of known relief includes the following:
rheumatism, inflamed and weak bowels, stomach
inflammation, kidney trouble, scurvy, ease the heat of
hemorrhoids and their sharp pains, and open the tiny
blood vessels around the liver so that it is soft and
functioning. It should also be mentioned that Chickweed is much prized by the American
Indians for swelling of all kinds, redness of the face, boils, blood poisoning, cancer-swollen
testes, and ulcerated throat and mouth. Safe fat burner to help lose weight.
DOSAGE: 20 to 60 drops three times per day in tea or under the tongue. Can be applied
externally over the kidneys on gauze soaked with the extract.
CHICORY
Cichorium Intybus, L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Cleans glands, spleen, kidney

and urinary system, liver and gallbladder cleaner.
COMMON NAMES: Wild Chicory, Wild Succory.
PARTS USED: Root.
114
BODILY INFLUENCES: Much of the long stretches of calming, blue flowers blooming in
profusion along the waysides and highways during July and August in North America are
Chicory flowers. Its restful presence not only delights the eye with its beauty, as an herb, it
delights the body. Liver, kidneys, spleen,
lymphatics, stomach and urinary pathways are
relieved and disgorged of their morbid wastes
with un-roasted Chicory root. A substance
called inulin (a carbohydrate), which makes up
about one third of the root, provides the
hypoglycemic (low blood sugar sufferer) and
the diabetic (high blood sugar sufferer) with a
non-irritating source of food. Inulin does not
_ s‘ W
dr I
requithpancsgldoruein
and thus, the blood sugar levels have a better
chance to return to normal. Liver bile (gall) is
stimulated and heart disorders are helped, by
reducing nerve irritation. Gout and skin
eruptions are reduced, by neutralizing uric acid.
Chicory - Cichorium intybus, L
Joint stiffness is alleviated by the same action.
Stomach mucus, which inhibits absorption and
prevents stomach juice secretion, is cleared
away, restoring digestive function. During the U.S. War between the states when the
Confederate troops could no longer get a steady supply of coffee, roasted Chicory root was
consumed instead of coffee. To this day, some folks still add this roasted root to their coffee
or, happily drink it instead of coffee, as a delightful herbal beverage.
DOSAGE: 20 to 40 drops three to four times per day on or under the tongue. Use with
a good bowel program to eliminate the wastes loosened and dissolved by Chicory.
(See: Cascara Sagrada, Buckthorn or C.C.E.-W).
CHIPPEWA PINE
Pinus strobus
PROPERTIES AND USES: Vitamin C

source, longevity, repair bones, soft tissue,
scurvy, "Osteoarthritis," "Lupus."
COMMON NAMES: Deal Pine, Soft Deal

Pine.
PARTS USED: Young bark, fresh needles.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Is the Eastern

White pine, Pinus strobes. This is the
historical source of an especially active form of the Vitamin C complex of Vitamins. The
wisdom of using the needles and the young bark of the Eastern White Pine together has been
passed on to us by the Iroquois and Chippewa Native Americans as a means to survive stress
115
and rigorous, inhospitable winter conditions of the north. Although the Vitamin C content
found in the needles is not in high amounts, modern investigative techniques have revealed,
when mixed with the young bark of the same tree, the effects of the available Vitamin C are
multiplied impressively. Chippewa Pine is used to affect rapid body repair in cases of injury,
strengthen fragile capillaries, repair blood vessels which cause varicose veins, prevent
bruising too easily, increase connective tissue and skin flexibility, tighten loose teeth, restore
gum health, prevent skin wrinkling, neutralize poisons and prevent infections. We now know
the compounds which we call free radicals (abnormal "hyper-active" forms of the oxygen and
hydrogen and oxygen which are unstable and react with things they should not and cause
damage) are neutralized and eliminated, as well as, prevented by Chippewa Pine. One theory
of the cause of premature aging and deterioration in old age can be laid at the doorstep of
these free radicals, which are observed to cause abnormal cell division and the loss of
protective fat layers in cell membranes. When cells divide abnormally, our immune system
may not recognize the new cells and their altered protein as our own and attack them. These
autoimmune reactions (the body fighting itself) are at the heart of some of the baffling
conditions that are labeled "lupus," "osteoarthritis," or some form of "allergy" or other catch
all labels. It is no wonder then, that some cases so labeled, respond so beautifully when free
radical fighters such as "Chippewa Pine" are added to the diet. While it is true that free
radicals occur during the normal life processes in the body, they are also caused by exposure
to radiation and environmental poisons. High fat intake and the frying of fats in food
preparation produce them. One of the proven ways to counteract this is to give the body
enough natural Vitamin C and its correlative factors (rutin, hesperidins, bioflavonoids) occur
in nature with it. When you do this, the Vitamin C combines with the free radicals and
renders them harmless. Better yet, it can prevent their formation. In this role, Chippewa Pine
is classified as an antioxidant (prevents formation and or activity of abnormal oxygen
compounds known as free radicals and their damage), a poison antidote and thus potent
immune system booster by protecting and repairing itself and cutting down on the immune
system's workload.
DOSAGE: As a daily maintenance of good health, 40 to 80 drops three times per day. A
good rule is one drop per pound of body weight per day. In severe cases 1 teaspoon 3 times
per day.
NOTE: To handle conditions of deterioration and reverse them, use one teaspoon three times
per day. Also, eliminate environmental poisons, reduce excess fat intake and fried fats.
Reduce exposure to radiation. Also, undertake a complete supplementation, improved
digestion and cleaning program for the entire body. SEE: ALFALFA, SWEET ROOT,
CASCARA SAGRADA. Eat green salads. (This means no Iceberg "head" Lettuce).
CHLORELLA
Chlorella pyrendoidosa
PROPERTIES AND USES: Concentrated source of chlorophyll from fresh water plants,
Vitamin B- 12 source, helps remove mercury and other heavy poisonous metals, improves
memory especially short term.
COMMON NAMES: Chlorella
116
PARTS USED: The Plant Cell.

BODILY INFLUENCES: Chlorella is a microscopic green miracle plant, which helps to get
pesticide poisons out of the body. The poisons bind to the undigested cell walls of
chlorella after we eat it and are ushered out of the body by way of the bowel. In this
way lead, cadmium and other heavy poisonous metals are dumped. We spray pesticides
on our foods to kill weeds and bugs to keep them from crowding out or eating our foods
before we can get them. Then when we eat it we get some of pesticide poisons ourselves.
This is how we can expect to contaminate our liver, encourage the growth of "bad cells,"
disrupt the development of children in the womb, suppress the function of our dis-ease
defenses (white blood cells and lymph node cells, for instance) and mess up our skin and
eyes. Chlorophyll (plant blood) all by itself helps eliminate a whole family of petroleum,
based poisons called di-oxins from the body by encouraging bowel movements. The
concentrated source of chlorophyll from the fresh water plant chlorella (an alga) does an
excellent job of this. Chlorella is so nourishing it is the basis for an entire food chain. This
life-sustaining plant could be called the "grass of fresh water." More to the point, it is a
fairly complete food source in and of itself, including vitamins. There are at least 20
different types of chlorella's. We chose a thin walled Chlorella for the job because it is
easier to get at the digestible part and then we go one step further and make a liquid out of
it that goes more or less directly into the blood stream. A vital point for vegetarians is
that chlorella contains Vitamin B-12. If you are feeling puny and don't know why and
want to perk yourself up, sometimes a good slug of B-12 from a plant such as chlorella
each day will do the trick. Your liver will love you.
DOSAGE: One to three teaspoons per day.
CHUCHUHUASI
Maytenus krukovii
PROPERTIES AND USES: Important women's herb, arthritis, osteoarthritis, cancerous
tumors and preventative herb, immunity builder, repels mosquitos.
COMMON NAMES: Chuchuhuasi.

PARTS USED: Bark, Root and Leaves.
BODILY INFLUENCES: (Chew-chew-huh-wah-see) is the South American Indian
name for the rain forest tree known botanically as Maytenus macrocarpa. Its home is the
steamy jungles of Peru, where it is well known and used by the people, especially in and
around Iquitos, Peru on the Amazon River. Because of the remoteness of this area, its
use was unknown to the rest of the world until recent times. Yet, it is now, perhaps,
the most popularly used rain forest herb in Peru. Life in a jungle environment means
dealing with infections, bites and "dis-eases" of many kinds. Remedies must be found
and used. Chuchuhuasi serves this multi-purpose function, and it is commonly taken in
the liquid extract form. Among Chuchuhuasi's strongest properties is the building of
immunity and, at the same time, enhancing sexual activity and function. The ability of
Chuchuhuasi to do this has attracted strong scientific interest. (See: Clark, Leo. "The
Rivers Ran East" Funk and Wagnalls 1953). This is accomplished by using the root bark
as a liquid and taking orally
117
three times per day. Rather than just working on the relief of symptoms, Chuchuhuasi
apparently works on the actual cause of arthritis and, in this manner, restores joints to
working order. This, of course, has aroused considerable excitement in the scientific
community. The same can be said regarding Chuchuhuasi's anti-tumor properties. The
U.S.D.A. (United States Department of Agriculture) has isolated the alkaloid (active bitter
compound) "maytansine" as being most prominent in the compounds believed to be active in
the shrinkage of tumors. As if all this would not be enough to recommend the daily use of
Chuchuhuasi, it is also applied to the skin to repel jungle mosquito's. Now, the mosquito's of
the Peruvian jungle are rumored, by the local inhabitants, for the benefit of tourists, to be,
"So large you can hear them when they walk, and Senior, they may even possess backbones."
At any rate, accounts of their ferocity are legendary and Chuchuhuasi undoubtedly a
welcome remedy.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops three times per day as maintenance. One teaspoon three times per
day for more serious cases. Externally as given above.
CILANTRO
Coriandrum sativum

Antibiotic, calmative for the
stomach and for application to
joints, muscles, tendons, bones and
nerves plagued by the discomfort we
call rheumatism and fibromyalgia.
COMMON NAMES: Coriander,

Coliander, Coriander Seed Herb,
Coriander Seed.
PARTS USED: Leaves
BODILY INFLUENCES:
(Coriandrum Sativum) A time
honored antibiotic. When you see the word for an herb called Cilantro, think Coriander and
you will make the right connection. The Spanish, some time back, decided to develop their
own pronunciation for the name of the plant, hence, Coriander became Cilantro. The
Spanish-speaking peoples of South America and North America do relish the taste of this
slender, green, annual plant chopped up in their food, for the zing it adds and to encourage
the appetite. Be that as it may, the plant and its seeds have been in use since Biblical times by
the then Egyptians, and to this day by the Hebrews, in the religious observance of Passover
commemorating their exodus from Egypt. The seed of the plant (which emits a smell similar
to the insect known as bedbugs) is actually a pretty good antibiotic. You can understand then,
why it was used by the Romans in food preservation. It is no wonder it was used in medicine
by the Greeks and others for healing. Today it is used in many cosmetics and deodorants. In
the Middle East, Cilantro (Coriander) is prized as an herb, which excites passion by the user.
Many people use Cilantro as a calmative for the stomach and for application to joints,
118
muscles, tendons, bones and nerves plagued by the discomfort we call rheumatism and
fibromyalgia.
DOSAGE: Internally one teaspoon three times per day as needed to engender "passion" or
for the stomach as needed. Externally, apply as needed, to the affected areas.

CLEANSING CORRECTIVE
EXTRACT - W. (C.C.E. — W)
PROPERTIES AND USES: As a basis

for all remedies, excellent flu remedy.
COMMON NAMES: Scandinavian

Corrective.
COMBINATION: (There are several

combinations in use. This is one of the
most common). Aloe, Angelica,
Camphor, Carline Thistle, Manna,
Senna — Cassia acutifolia Myrrh, Rhubarb Root, Saffron, Senna,
Photograph by Barbara Jacobs Theriac, Zedoary.
BODILY INFLUENCES: This most

valuable cleansing corrective has roots in centuries of European herbal experience and
studies in Northern Europe. The originators of this all-embracing liquid, Urban Hjarne, and
120
Dr. Samst, reported nothing short of miraculous results. When used internally, regularly and
daily, it has lead to a very extended and active life span. Cleans blood, bowel, nerves and
repairs them. It is a life extender. C.C.E.-W is an antibiotic, a poison antidote, and an outright
corrective for numerous common and many baffling types of conditions. Its antibiotic
activity is excellent. Poison antidote for bee stings and insects. Take internally and apply
externally, as needed. It may be used externally as follows: apply Vitamin E oil to the area
from 100 to 400 i.0 capsules. Then take cotton or gauze soaked in the liquid extract and place
over the affected area. Cover with plastic and hold in place with a wrap overnight. Cleansing
Corrective Extract-W has been used on a wide variety of serious or hopeless problems with
very favorable results. It is taken internally for many diverse problems. The following is a
partial list: sinus, deformation of hands and legs, stiffness of joints, wounds, scars, diarrhea,
arthritic complaints, sprains, loss of hearing, gallbladder attacks, blood clots, hemorrhoids,
cancer problems, head and brain disorders, digestive problems of all kinds, birthmark, moles,
liver spots, memory, loss of appetite, anemia and high or low blood pressure. For severe
itching conditions, such as chicken pox, paint C.C. E.-W on the areas with a Q-Tip or cotton
bud to relieve the torment. Also, take for allergic reactions. For emergencies, or in a crisis
condition, 1/2 ounce (one standard measure tablespoonful) can be taken at once. If flu is
threatening, take one tablespoon to prevent it or if it is in full progress, take one tablespoonful
every four hours, while awake, until the symptoms go away and stay away and get through
the flu in record time. It would be unusual to have to take C.C. E.-W more than three times in
one day. Many times, in the early stages of flu, one tablespoon will just wipe it out. If needed
to counteract a persistent threat, take one tablespoon, or more, until the flu no longer
threatens. If a baby or small child objects to the taste, or if the person is bedridden and cannot
take by mouth, then rub in sufficient quantity to cover the entire abdomen instead of taking
internally. Please Note: you will clean out large quantities of solid and liquid wastes, rapidly,
which are the cause of the flu. Every time you flush these wastes away you can see what was
tormenting the body and causing the flu. C.C.E.-W is also an excellent daily regimen to keep
the body clean and avoid many kinds of problems. C.C.E.-W is normally taken daily, such as
each night, as part of a bowel maintenance program. Take (mercifully in juice) each evening
in sufficient quantity to produce at least two, and preferably three, bowel movements per day.
This may not be a "civilized" idea, but is a good health idea and "good habit." In so-called
primitive societies, where there are an abundance of natural foods and fiber, there are on an
average of three bowel movements per 24 hrs. In these societies, they simply do not have
many of the "dis-eases" we suffer from in modern "civilized society": the hemorrhoids, skin
conditions, hypertension, allergies, etc. They don't even have names for them. The concept
here is, when you put something into the body, then you should evacuate something so the
wastes do not back up and cause a breeding ground for putrefaction and "dis-eases." By
observation of healthy functioning systems, such as with a new born baby (unpolluted by
junk food), if you feed the baby, then be prepared to diaper at the same time, or if you feed
the dog (unless you feed him the same kind of food you are eating) then you must be
prepared to walk the dog. If there are three meals per day then we want three bowel
movements per day. Then, most of the hysterectomies, prostate operations, yeast miseries,
bowel cancers, eczema, psoriasis, parasite problems and fully 1/3 of all the "dis-eases" listed
in medical books can be avoided. Remember here, the time-honored wisdom: "Miseries
missed are blessings received too."
REGULAR DOSAGE: 10 to 80 drops each evening. For more involved conditions, up to

one tablespoon, as necessary, to obtain desired activity, for as long as necessary. If you need
it, you need it. For a complete bowel maintenance program, take four to six capsules of
121
Psyllium and four to six capsules of Alfalfa. Psyllium acts as a lubricating, internal exercising
bulk and the Alfalfa as a deodorizing "scrub brush." Be sure to take a large glass of water
with the Psyllium so it can do its job and so it does not gum up. For all other uses: use as
given above.
SERIOUS DOSAGE: Externally as given above. Internally take one teaspoon three times a
day the first week. Two teaspoons, three times a day the second week. One tablespoon, three
times per day until condition is corrected. For serious conditions at the start, increase to one
tablespoon three times per day. In emergency situations, two tablespoons at once on the
tongue or in fluid. For daily maintenance of a healthy system, one to three teaspoonfuls. If flu
symptoms occur, then two teaspoons to one tablespoonful every three to four hours while
awake until symptom free.
CLOVES
Caryophyllus aromaticus
PROPERTIES AND USES: Nausea, sore throat,

teeth, gums, and plaque, kills parasite eggs.
COMMON NAMES: Mother cloves.
PARTS USED: Whole Bulb.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Is made from the

unopened flower bud or "whole clove," not powdered
cloves. Tastes good, breath freshener, stimulating and
aromatic. To alleviate toothache, place Clove extract
on a cotton ball and lay next to tooth between gum
and cheek and or rub on the gums. To cure the worst
attacks of nausea, combine 40 to 80 drops of Clove
extract with 40 to 80 drops of Ginger extract in a cup
of water and drink. Do not use Clove Oil in this manner. It is far too strong! Clove extract
raises the body temperature and warms the hands and feet by increasing the circulation.
Kidneys are disinfected, as well as the skin, liver, and respiratory surfaces. Hulda Regehr
Clark, an American naturopathic physician, shares in her book, "The Cure For All Cancers,"
that whole cloves kill the eggs of parasites.
DOSAGE: A drop on the tongue as needed or desired. For therapeutic activity, 40 drops in
V2 cup of water three to four times per day. For severe nausea, combine 80 drops of Clove
extract with 80 drops of Ginger Extract in a cup of water and drink. For severe sore throat
apply externally to the throat as needed: Clove Extract, Oil of Cajeput and Herbal Adj.
(Adjustment) Combination. For the exact procedure of killing the eggs of parasites with
whole Cloves, it is recommended you refer to Dr. Clark's Book.

CORNSILK
Zea mays
PROPERTIES AND USES: Gentle repair for

kidneys, bladder, urinary complaints, diuretic (relief
of fluid retention), bedwetting.
COMMON NAMES: Maize, Jagong, Turkish Corn.
PARTS USED: Covering over the entrance to the

female flower.
BODILY INFLUENCES: One of the finest gifts

the Native Americans gave to the world is in the corn
plant. Its flowers are two in number. The male flowers
at the top of the plant and the female flowers on the
side of the stalk. At the top of each female flower
or "cob" (female ovary) is a covering of silk. It is
this delicate spring silk which is harvested for the kidneys. There is no finer, nor more gentle
touch to comfort an irritated kidney, bladder or urinary tube. Cornsilk is very rich in
123
Vitamin K, which can stop hemorrhaging where blood vessels are weak. Vitamin K is often
used for hemorrhaging in newborn babies. Cornsilk is also used to stop bedwetting. Stress
and/or eating too much meat, with too little exercise, can cause uric acid buildup regardless
of age, and the highly painful condition of "gout" can occur. When this occurs Cornsilk
affords much comfort.
DOSAGE: 40 drops after each meal. In severe cases, 40 drops per hour while awake and a
glass of water. For infant bleeding, apply to the sole of each foot two drops, repeatedly, until
bleeding stops.
CORNSILK COMBINATION
Zea mays, Arctostaphylos uva-urs•

BODILY INFLUENCES: The "silk" from

the top of the female flower or "cob" of the
corn plant is the gift of the Native Americans
for very sensitive and irritated kidneys to
soothe and repair them, restores urine flow to
normal, relieves fluid retention. Coats internal
surfaces of tender, inflamed kidneys, bladder
and urinary passages for comfort. Gravel Root

CRAMPBARK
Viburnum opulus, L.

Promotes pregnancy, antispasmodic,
nervine, tonic, relaxant, diuretic,
expectorant, astringent, sedative,
emmenagogue (promotes
menstruation).
COMMON NAMES: High

Cranberry, Snowball Tree, Squaw
Bush.
PARTS USED: The bark.
BODILY INFLUENCES:
Crampbark is highly regarded as an
antispasmodic agent. Promotes pregnancy, and is highly effective. It is considered one of the
best female regulators and relaxants of the ovaries and uterus, and is highly effective in
preventing miscarriage due to nervous afflictions during pregnancy. The dried bark is
extremely high in Vitamin C and a very good source to supplement the system. Crampbark
will speedily quiet the uneasiness and relieve the pains of uterine and abdominal cramps, and
is a remedy to compensate for nervous disorders and spasms of all kinds.
DOSAGE: As a supplement to the diet for the nervous system to calm nerves and regulate
the female system 40 drops three times a day. To relieve cramping apply enough to cover the
abdomen as often as needed. Also apply to the lower back and spine as needed for the same
purpose. To stop miscarriage see Crampbark and False Unicorn Root combination.

Crampbark
Dr. John Raymond Christopher states,
"Barring chemical or drug contamination's,
within one year of use, the child will be here
125
or you will be selecting names." Taken by prospective mother. If after four months nothing is
on the way, then please have prospective father take also. After conception for mother, 40
drops per day to prevent further difficulty. Corrects male and female reproductive organs.
Prevents miscarriage and stops threatening miscarriage. This combination is a most valuable
formulation for correction of all types of female as well as males disorders of genito-urinary
areas as well as the kidney and liver problems. Settle stomach and cleans the blood stream.
COMBINATION: Crampbark, False Unicorn Root.
DOSAGE: 40 drops, three times per day faithfully, and as given above. Usually, within a
year you should either be feeding or choosing names. The longest recorded case, which was
pronounced "medically hopeless" took three years and then a happy, healthy baby girl was
born to a happy, healthy mother. To prevent miscarriages, elevate the legs (no reaching
upward or lifting), and 60 drops every 3 hours during the day is usually recommended by
herbalist if bleeding has already started.
CRANESBILL
Geranium maculatum, L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Corrects

mercury poisoning from mercury teeth
fillings (heavy metals), wrinkles,
bleeding gums, baffling disorders,
diabetes.
COMMON NAMES: Geranium,

Tormentil, Spotted Geranium, Wild
Dovefoot, American Tormentilla,
Storksbill, Wild Cranesbill, Crowfoot,
American Kino Root, Astrigent Root,
Spotted Cranesbill.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Derives its name from its appearance after its flower petals drop
and its resulting resemblance to the bird bill of a crane or stork. Don't underestimate the
ability of the root of this wild geranium. Cranesbill does not resemble the tame geranium in
appearance or smell. It is a distinctly different plant. Cranesbill stops diarrhea, shrinks and
dissolves tumors; powerful, non-irritating astringent for aftershave. Beauty aid removes
wrinkles due to enlarged pores and skin abuse. Apply after cleansing of skin and before
moisturizer. Female system restorer, also useful in menstrual complications, night sweats,
relaxed vagina, relaxed rectum, weeping sores, in potentially fatal cholera (intestinal
dehydration), diabetes and mercury poisoning. For sore mouth and bleeding gums, rub on
area for relief.
DOSAGE: 20 to 40 drops three to four times per day and or apply externally as desired. For
more serious problems, internally one teaspoon to one tablespoon three to four times per day.
126
Make sure to use a good bowel management program with this to clean out the wastes
Cranesbill dissolves to prevent "sick feeling." (See: Cascara Sagrada, Buckthorn or
C.C.E.-W).
CUD WEED
Gnaphalium polycephalum
PROPERTIES AND USES: Correct

emotional torment and the abnormal behavior
of men and women, swollen tonsils, head lice.
COMMON NAMES: Life Everlasting,

Mountain Everlasting.
BODILY INFLUENCES: This fine herb has

been reintroduced into use, this century, by the
renowned Amish herbalist, Solomon Wickey, who has found it to contain a form of organic
Lithium (a naturally occurring metallic mineral). He has put it into use to correct emotional
torment and the abnormal behavior of men and women with impressive results. Cudweed
does not exhibit the potential harmful side effects shown by the use of medical Lithium.
Cudweed may also be used, to good effect, for swollen tonsils. For this purpose, use full
strength as a gargle. Repeat every hour if tonsils are abscessed. Apply to scalp, externally, for
head lice, three times per day. As a moth repellent, wrap the flowers in cheesecloth and store
with woolens.
DOSAGE: 40 drops three times per day after meals. For special uses, see above.
CULVER'S ROOT (BLACK ROOT)
Leptandra virginica
PROPERTIES AND USES: Bowel cleaner, lazy and

or congested conditions of the stomach, duodenum,
liver, gallbladder, pancreas, remedy fevers (including
serious types), expel worms, jaundice (yellow whites of
eyes and skin due to congested liver and gallbladder and
or infection), swollen glands, infant diarrhea, chronic
constipation, syphilitic impurities, sallow complexion,
dull frontal headache, thick and white coated tongue and
to remedy the condition of pleurisy (excess fluid
accumulation around lungs and or heart). Take for the
"miseries."
COMMON NAMES: Black Root, Bowman's Root,

Oxadoddy, Purple Leptandra, Whorlywort, Tall
127
Speedwell, Beaumont Root, Culver's Physic, Physic Root, Tall Veronica, Brinton Root, Hini,
Quitel.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: This native North American plant is well established in Native
American herbal medicine. In France, the herb is known, and appreciated, as Veronique and
in Germany, as Leptandrawurzel. It was introduced by Dr. Culver into white man's medicine
and is hence also known as Culver's Root. In the South, where it is still used extensively in
folk medicine, it is known as BLACK ROOT. The very broad range of maladies, with
seemingly no specific origin, which respond favorably to this herb, make it easy to
understand why it is so widely and effectively used throughout the South for many kinds of
the "miseries." Culver's Root is, observably, a good bowel cleaner, but much more. It also
works especially well on the vital area of the duodenum (first 12 inches of the small
intestine), where acid treated food from the stomach meets with the anti-acid secretions in the
small intestine and produce a great deal of the body's heat. It is vital to the body that this area
be balanced between acid and anti-acid activities, otherwise so many kinds of unpleasant
disorders and just plain, "feeling bad" and "miseries" can occur. Culver's Root works on lazy
and or congested conditions of the stomach, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, both the small and
large intestines and restores them to normal and balanced activity. Here is a partial list of
disorders for which Culver's Root is given effectively: to remedy fevers (including serious
types), expel worms, jaundice (yellow whites of eyes and skin due to congested liver and
gallbladder and or infection), swollen glands, infant diarrhea, chronic constipation, syphilitic
impurities, sallow complexion, dull frontal headache, thick and white coated tongue and to
remedy the condition of pleurisy (excess fluid accumulation around lungs and or heart, with
stabbing pain and shortness of breath, short, dry cough, chilliness).
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops each evening. Follow with a little juice, if desired, as its taste is
bitter and somewhat acrid. In stubborn cases, take three times per day. In serious cases, give
hourly, as needed, 10 to 40 drops and at the same time rub into affected areas, (abdominal
and or chest areas) in quantity needed to cover the area.
DAMIANA
Turnery ayhrodisiaca, UrB.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Aphrodisiac, stimulant, sexual rejuvenator, laxative, increase

physical control of extremities.
COMMON NAMES: Damiana.
PARTS USED: Leaves.
BODILY INFLUENCES: When sexual debility increases due to abuse or advanced age,
Damiana has been the traditional remedy. Although its use has been discouraged and
ridiculed by "medical science" and a person no longer sees it in traveling medicine shows,
these bitters still have their place today. Those who have used Damiana and see that it works,
wonder why others try to argue that it does not work. Although Damiana is reported by users
to have a definite effect of sharpening a person's perceptions, no claims are made for
128
correction of emotional or psychological problems. Motivation for sexual continuance

remains a personal matter. On the physical level, Damiana knows its job and when allowed to
work, it will work. William Meyers, M.D., of Philadelphia describes it in glowing terms as a
dependable and consistently effective remedy in all cases. Care should be taken not to over
stimulate by use of Damiana beyond the internal strength of the person. Acts energetically to
relieve impotency in men and frigidity in women. Use to restore nerve control of body
extremities (arms, hands, legs, feet and head).
DOSAGE: As people may vary greatly, 5 to 10 drops up to one teaspoon to one tablespoon
three times daily until results. The idea is to normalize activity, not to exhaust body systems.
Be prepared to wait for 10 days before the full effects are noticed.
DANDELION LEAF
Traxacum officinale
PROPERTIES AND USES: Eyes, skin,

Vitamin A source, cleans out all hollow organs,
Potassium source, Hypoglycemia.
COMMON NAMES: Dandelion Leaf
PARTS USED: Leaves.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Strengthens eyes and

skin. Very high in non-harmful vegetable Vitamin A
known as carotene. Excellent potassium source for muscular strength. Helps to stabilize
blood sugar in hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) sufferers. Take daily to prevent and eliminate
mucus buildup, as well as infections and sinus infections. Taken daily, the immune system is
strengthened. Keeps all internal surfaces and hollow organs free from infected mucus.
Dandelion Leaf provides an excellent source of potassium for energy and muscular strength.
DOSAGE: 40 drops or more, two to three times per day after meals.
DANDELION ROOT
Traxacum officinale
PROPERTIES AND USES: Repair stomach and

joints and its bladder and liver cleaning properties,
vigorous body cleaner.
COMMON NAMES: Dandelion Root.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Vigorous body cleaner.

Is favored for its rich mineral content, to repair
stomach and joints and its bladder and liver cleaning
129
properties. Dandelion root is a valuable source of organic sodium (not the salt shaker kind of
sodium), for relief of ulcers, stomach disorders, and joint and muscle stiffness.
DOSAGE: 40 drops or up to one teaspoon three times per day.
DEVIL'S CLAW
Harpagophytum procumbens
PROPERTIES AND USES: Puts crumbling

bones back together.
COMMON NAMES: Tuber Devil's Claw

Secondary Root.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: This valuable

plant has been found effective in the treatment
of some cases of "arthritis type problems,"
especially where the bones are crumbling, there is pain or inflammation or any combination
thereof. This action appears to be due to the presence of a glycoside (a class of compounds
occurring in plants composed of a natural form of glucose sugar and one or two other
products which often have medicinal properties) called harpagoside that reduces
inflammation in the joints. Devil's Claw is not effective in all kinds of "arthritis problems,"
but it is well worth considering in cases where there is inflammation and pain and or the
bones are crumbling. Also relieves liver & gallbladder complaints.
DOSAGE: 40 drops to one teaspoon three times per day.
DONG QUAI
Angelica sinensis
PROPERTIES AND USES: Regulates hormones, menopause, hormone replacement,

estrogen hormone balance.
COMMON NAMES: Dong Quai.
PARTS USED: Root
BODILY INFLUENCES: Dong Quai comes from China. The root of this Chinese Angelica
herb is a time proven and tested remedy for feminine distress. Dong Quai contains a very
remarkable type of phyto-estrogen (vegetable source estrogen). It can act as estrogen
for woman if needed. If, on the other hand, estrogen levels are too high in the body, this
phyto-estrogen competes with the body's estrogen for activity sites and lowers the body's
estrogen levels to normal. This explains the apparent contradiction of why herbalists have
successfully recommended Dong Quai for maladies we now know were caused by
130
a condition of too high or too low levels of estrogen. For example, when P.M.S.
(Pre-Menstrual-Syndrome) occurs and there is too much estrogen, Dong Quai is
recommended. When menopause occurs there is too little estrogen, once again, Dong Quai is
recommended. In both cases, Dong Quai can handle the job. This causes people who work
with synthetic estrogen in the orthodox medical field much consternation and head shaking.
They are used to drugs that act in a limited manner with possible undesirable side effects and
not the safe, balanced, multi-task capability with which many herbs are endowed. Dong Quai
strengthens and oxygenates all of the female organs. Circulation is restored and "dryness" is
solved. Traumatic injuries such as during childbirth and operations are corrected. Pelvic
congestion is corrected and expelled. The antibiotic nature of Dong Quai to eliminate
infection and thus calm nerves, as well as its hormonal balancing ability can be especially
helpful in cases of a condition labeled "endometriosis" where there is infection and or uterus
lining cells (endometrium) get scattered and grow in many unusual parts of the body where
they have no business being, even in the lungs and nasal passages. These, then are also active
hormonal sites which can throw the body into an uproar. Dong Quai can help to correct this
hormonal imbalance, as well as the infection.
DOSAGE: For menstrual disturbances, starting 10 days before and during the period, 40
drops three times per day after meals. For correcting more serious problems, increase from
one teaspoon to one tablespoon one time per day and, if found really necessary, three times
per day until problem(s) disappear. For maintenance, 40 drops per day.
DOSAGE: In cases called "endometriosis," 40 to 80 drops three times per day internally, and
externally apply 80 drops three times per day on the lower abdomen. Also, institute a bowel
maintenance program, which produces two, and preferably three, easy and complete bowel
movements per day. (See: Cascara Sagrada, Buckthorn or C.C.E.-W).
DULSE
Rhodvmenia palmata
PROPERTIES AND USES: DuIse is the finest sea vegetables known for the thyroid gland,
cold hands and or cold feet, to prevent fibroid tumors in breasts, of the uterus and on the
ovaries. Take to reduce swelling of thyroid, enlargements or swollen lumps in the intestinal
area.
COMMON NAMES: Dillisk, Water Leaf
PARTS USED: Leaves.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Purple in color DuIse is one of the finest sea vegetables known
for the thyroid gland. Use for overactive or underactive thyroid. The thyroid is found at the
base of the neck, in front, and swells when it cannot get enough of its vital nutritional
requirements. Mild but very effective. Take if fearful, for cold hands and or cold feet, hands
that tremble when extended with the fingers spread apart; to prevent fibroid tumors in
breasts, of the uterus and on the ovaries. Take to reduce swelling of thyroid (gland that plays
key role in the rate at which calories are burned, controls calcium levels in blood stream,
proper growth of hair, skin and nails, ovarian health). NOTE: Kelp, A.C.S. (All Cells Salts),
Bladderwrack and Hair-Nail-Skin extract can also be used for the same purpose. Results will
131
show you, after one month of use, which of these is the very best for your body type. DuIse
also contains an abundant supply of the mineral element silicon, which helps to grow strong,
beautiful, flexible nails. Dulse, as do other vegetable sources of the mineral element silicon,
also has the unique property of being able to act as the mineral element calcium in those who
have trouble with calcium absorption. As an example, Dulse can be used to help heal broken
bones where calcium absorption is poor. Enlargements or swollen lumps in the intestinal area
are reduced by Dulse. These can be felt under the skin. They are swollen lymphatic areas.
DOSAGE: 10 to 40 drops, or more, following meals. If body temperature or trembling hands

are a problem, gradually increase the amount taken until hands and feet and tip of nose are
warm and trembling stops, then take as necessary to maintain the normal condition.

Echinacea - Echinacea sp.
Photograph by Barbara Jacobs I BODILY INFLUENCES: The function

I of Echinacea is in the ability to expel
morbid material, hence circulation is improved. It has long been held that the average person
has 10 to 20 pounds of morbid material in the blood system and alimentary canal which is
chronic and uneliminated. It is a perfect breeding ground for dis-ease and malfunction, hence,
the extraordinary, valuable role of Echinacea is highly desirable. Auto-infection, where the
body is infectious to itself due to stale wastes is eliminated by Echinacea. As this occurs, help
in the following areas are observed:
strengthen the immune system,
syphilis, gonorrhea, gangrene, tired
feeling, resolving of pus pockets and
pimples, elimination of piles,
correction of lymphatic inflammation,
snake bites, stinging creatures, bad
breath, toxic tonsils, prostate
problems, sexual impotence, and foul
discharges. It should be noted that
Echinacea produces temporary skin
disturbances in cases of weak kidneys,
lymphatic engorgement, poor lung and
bowel elimination. The body simply
kicks waste out through the skin. This
may alarm some people as they think the Echinacea has made them sick. Persistence in its
132
use will soon clear up this temporary corrective disturbance. Care should be taken to assist
Echinacea by increased bowel elimination with a laxative as needed. Dry brushing of the skin
with a brush, made of vegetable fiber, non-synthetic clothing and gentle sunbathing will
greatly diminish skin irritation. Deep, old, bluish chronic conditions respond to Echinacea.
External dryness and bluishness due to internal dehydration and oxygen starvation are a
specialty of Echinacea. This may be applied externally with gauze or cotton and covered by
plastic and held in place with a cloth wrap. Vitamin E oil from 100 or 400 i.u. capsule(s)
should be applied before the gauze to prevent irritation to very sensitive skin.
DOSAGE: 5 to 40 drops one or two times per day internally. Start with 5 drops and
increase if necessary. Be sure to use a bowel cleaner such as C.C.E.-W (see: Cleansing
Corrective Extract-W) to keep the debris flowing and prevent "sick feeling," while
Echinacea does its job.
ELDERBERRY
Sambucus nigra

colds, flu swellings, respiratory problems,
energy, anemia, and sexual energy.
COMMON NAMES: American Elder,

Sambucus, Sweet Elder.
PARTS USED: Whole Herb.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Long

esteemed through daily use for good
health into great age, Elderberries have
been passed on to us. In the United States, Michigan
legend and folklore has endeared this plant for use in
life extension. Much gratitude has been expressed by
users in the relief of headache due to cold, shaking
disorders, rheumatism, jaundice, kidney problems,
epilepsy and syphilis. A wash for inflamed eyes can
be made by 20 drops of the extract in one-half cup of
distilled water. An extract of the flowers is held by
many to be aphrodisiac (exciting sexual desire). Elderberry - Sambucus nigra

PARTS USED: Rhizomes (underground

stems), and roots.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The mystery of

sickness has long plagued mankind. There is
little doubt that most of our systems today
need what the car industry jargon calls a
"major overhaul." Indeed, most of us could
use this and Elecampane performs just that
service. With Elecampane, parts of the body
are cleaned, renewed and reset for proper function. Since the time of the Greeks, Elecampane

channels: colds, flu, sore throat, irritation and dryness at the back of the mouth and behind
the nose. Breathing its vapor is aromatherapy and will clean the nose and chest. It may be
applied externally across the sinuses to relieve congestion and headache. Apply to the chest
and back for bronchitis, asthma, fevers, and related disorders. Taken internally, it relieves the
following conditions: croup, asthma, hemorrhoids, inflammation of reproductive and urinary
organs, and fever disorders. Taken internally with Buchu, the prolapsed (fallen) uterus is
corrected and offensive odors are diminished. Can also be applied to aching joints.
DOSAGE: Take drop by drop on the tongue as desired. Apply externally on cuts, scrapes
and wounds to prevent infections and speed healing. Eucalyptus can be applied to chest and

EVENING PRIMROSE
Oenothera biennis
PROPERTIES AND USES: Central

nervous system (brain and spine), mental
depression, nerve acids, whooping cough.
COMMON NAMES: Scabish, Tree

Primrose.
PARTS USED: Whole herb, seeds.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Evening

Primrose Extract with its natural oils from
its seeds and all the properties of the whole herb, gives relief in whooping cough, water on
the brain, mental depression, rashes, skin irritations, eliminates nerve acids which poison the
system and thus restores function of solar plexus and central nervous system. Eliminates
long-term nervous tension in the brain and spine.
DOSAGE: 30 to 40 drops three to four times per day internally, and externally, apply
liberally to the troubled area. Can also be applied the length of the spine from the coccyx
(cock'-sis or tailbone) to top of the head.
EYEBRIGHT
Euphrasia officinalis
PROPERTIES AND USES: Eye problems, mental depression, oxygenation, radiation

poisoning, prevent deafness in unborn if mother exposed to measles.
COMMON NAMES: Eyebright.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Traditionally used to correct vision and strengthen eyes. Cleans
eyes and sinuses, delivering rich oxygen supply to the entire head for healing and correcting
functions. This extra lift of oxygen can often times correct depression when it is due to
hypoxia (oxygen starvation). One of the ways Eyebright does this is by increasing the
peripheral circulation (blood vessels near the surface of the body). Eyebright achieves this
due to its abundant supply of the Vitamin B known as Niacin. As it does its work, Niacin can
produce a beneficial "purple tingly blush." Eyebright is an organic source of the mineral
element silicon, which among other things, builds strong nerves. Eyebright contains a
surprisingly large amount of the organic form of this mineral element, silicon. This may well
explain the way Eyebright corrects some problems, by first strengthening the nerves that
service the area and then repair can take place. Eyebright can be taken effectively for cough,
hoarseness, earache, headache, for irritating discharge of mucus from eyes, sinuses, nose,
throat or bowel. If the mother-to-be is exposed to measles, give Eyebright to prevent deafness
137
in the child to be born. Rub into abdomen liberally and apply to the length of the spine
several times per day until all threat of harm is passed. Avoid chilling while doing this.
DOSAGE: 40 drops three times per day. Also, liberally rub on or around areas in trouble,
several times per day. For example, whooping cough, rub on chest and back hourly as
needed, while awake, until well. For correcting eyes, rub on temples, sides of nose and under
eyes, three times per day until it is corrected. 80 drops or more, as needed, to improve
peripheral circulation.
FALSE UNICORN ROOT
Helonias dioica
PROPERTIES AND USES: Bright's

Dis-ease (big bubbles on surface of urine),
diabetes, prostate problems, reproductive
system of either the male or female, promotes
pregnancy, tape worms.
COMMON NAMES: Star Grass, Drooping

Starwort, Blazing Starwort, Devil's Bit,
Unicorn, Red Seed, Eenhorn, Unicorn Horn.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The uses are as

varied as they are useful. When kidneys lose
protein into the urine, as in Bright's Dis-ease,
large, persisting bubbles remain on top of the urine. This is corrected by False Unicorn Root;
as is the condition known as diabetes. When there is an atony or lack of tone in the kidneys or
uterus, think False Unicorn Root, as well as in relaxed vagina. Nor are the healing powers of
this root confined to the female system. Prostate problems, as well as involuntary loss of
semen, yield to False Unicorn Root. It can be used to correct almost any problem in the
reproductive system of either the male or female body. So gentle is this root, that it is also
used for a stomach that would reject almost anything else to repair it. If this were not enough,
tapeworms have been expelled by its use. When mixed with Crampbark, fertility has
occurred in the most amazing cases where it was thought absolutely impossible due to a
variety of "good medical reasons." Please, do not use for pregnancy or impotency until the
general system is strong enough to bear such activity. When used to promote fertility, mix
with Crampbark. See: Crampbark and False Unicorn Root Combination.
DOSAGE: 40 drops three times per day for the prospective mother and father, taken
faithfully for up to a year, if necessary.

FENNEL
Foeniculum officinale

Curb appetite, expel gas, digestaid,
regulate estrogen, menopause,
vision and hearing.
COMMON NAMES: Wild

Fennel, Sweet Fennel, Large
Fennel,
PARTS USED: Seed.
BODILY INFLUENCES:
Licorice taste, curbs appetite, good
for excess stomach acid, tonsillitis,
pink eye, ulcers on the eyes, gout,
prevents gas in stomach and
bowels, rub on insect bites, dissolves fat, stimulates milk flow for nursing mothers. Fennel
has been known to act as estrogen where there is a deficiency (as in menopause), and to
reduce an excess of estrogen (as during P.M.S.). See: also Dong Ouai for additional
information.
DOSAGE: For estrogen regulating properties, 40 drops three times per day. As an eye bath,
20 drops in 1/2 cup of distilled water two to three times per day. Hold a cotton ball soaked
with the water-diluted Fennel extract above eyes and squeeze drops out and let run into the
eyes for five minutes at a time. Repeat three times per day. Do both eyes, even if only one
eye has the problem. They are sympathetic. Take 40 drops, after meals as a digestaid and to
prevent gas. Then don't eat again until you are actually hungry.
FENUGREEK
Trigonella .oeran grecum
PROPERTIES AND USES: Lymph gland

and skin cleaner.
COMMON NAMES: Fenugreek.
PARTS USED: Seed.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Its warm spicy

flavor gently enters the lymphatics and
cleans them. After using Fenugreek for a
few weeks, a person usually can detect the
faint spicy aroma of Fenugreek on the
139
surface of the skin, indicating how it permeates the body tissues with its gentle cleansing
action. Combines well with the herb Knitbone (Comfrey) to form a combination, which
soothes its action still further.
DOSAGE: 40 drops three times per day. As an added benefit 40 drops three times per day
of Knibone(Comfrey).
FEVERFEW
Pyrethrum parthenium, sm.

Migraines, radiation poisoning,
Niacin source, "motor mouth"
(talks continuously).
COMMON NAMES: Feather Few,

Febrifuge Plant.
BODILY INFLUENCES: This

miniature chrysanthemum has been used
for beauty and relief of suffering since
the dawn of humanity. When the
Romans invaded Great Britain, they took Feverfew with them and planted it there and used it
for ready relief of sore joints and migraine headaches. And there it grows to this very day.
Indeed, the skin, nervous system, reproductive and urinary organs are stimulated to discharge
their poisons. In the process, relief is gained for nerves and from pressure on the brain, as
well as, tension from overexcitement. Feverfew reduces fevers by inducing sweating. Used in
this way, the person is kept warmly wrapped so they can "sweat it out." Poisons are
eliminated, through the skin. Parkinson's Dis-ease or its older name "Saint Vitus dance"
(a shaking disorder of the nervous system) also responds to Feverfew. All manner of
digestive disturbances, such as colic (stomach and intestinal gas pains) are handled.
Alcoholic delirium and loquacity (running off at the mouth or motor mouth) are remedied
by Feverfew. Inflammation in the lungs, abdomen and stomach are a specialty of Feverfew.
Feverfew contains a rich supply of the Vitamin B known as Niacin, which can produce a
beneficial "purple tingly blush" as it improves peripheral (blood vessels near the skin)
circulation. All of this, and the beauty of Feverfew is for you.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops three times per day. This amount can be used hourly if a severe
condition exists. Additionally, apply in amounts needed to the spine, back of the neck, around
the ears and down the neck out to the shoulders, then the temples, forehead, top of the head
and any other part of the head which hurts. 80 drops or more, one to three times per day to
improve peripheral circulation.

FIGS
Ficus carica
PROPERTIES AND USES: Ulcers, burning

stomach.
COMMON NAMES: Fig.
PARTS USED: Fruit
BODILY INFLUENCES: Time tested

traditional biblical remedy and wonderful
food. Apply cotton soaked with fig extract
directly to gum boil or mouth ulcer. Leave in
place until healed. Change daily. Follow same procedure for external boils and ulcers. For
foul smelling ulcers and cancers, saturate cotton cloth or gauze with mixture of milk and fig
extract and apply directly to the area. This removes stench. Figs are the most alkaline
(anti-acid) of presently known herbs and far better than any alkali-seltzer for the stomach.
Figs soak up acids and neutralize them. Internally, relieves heartburn by coating the stomach
walls. Add 40 to 80 drops to one cup of milk, if desired, or take by itself.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops three times per day and as needed to counteract excess
stomach acid as well as repair stomach ulcers.
FLAX
Linum usitatissimum, L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Ulcers,

cholesterol and or triglyceride reduction,
cleans arteries, contact healer.
COMMON NAMES: Linseed, Winterlein.
PARTS USED: Seed.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Very old and

effective remedy as a universal healer.
Dissolves cholesterol and reduces
triglycerides (a type of body fat) to normal. (Please note, when dissolving hunks of
cholesterol into small harmless pieces, a cholesterol test may show elevated levels of
cholesterol. This does not mean cholesterol has increased, it means your cholesterol is being
broken up and can be read by the test while the body is flushing it out). Used internally and
externally to kill the bad cells of the body by starving them and feeding the good cells.
Excellent for injuries both inside and outside the body. Strengthens weak areas, such as
ruptures and varicose veins. Heals urinary and reproductive tract. This is a swift and effective
remedy.
141
DOSAGE: 20 to 80 drops per meal. Can be applied externally as a dressing on cotton cloth
or gauze to the injured area.
FRENCH VANILLA
Vanilla aromatica
PROPERTIES AND USES: Joy, stimulant.
COMMON NAMES: Vanilla-Bean Plant,

Vaniglia, Vanilla Bean.
PARTS USED: Bean.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Most expensive of

all the Vanilla Extracts to produce. Natural
vanilla, not synthetic, comes from the seedpod
of a wild tropical orchid. Being an excellent
aromatic stimulant and tasting very good, it is
often added to ice cream for its delightful taste and pleasing aroma. It stimulates sexual
activity and is therefore considered to be an aphrodisiac. It calms the nerves and elevates the
mood to joyful. Vanilla was used in Mexico by the Aztecs in earlier times as a flavor for a
food, allowed only to royalty known as chocolate. French Vanilla can be used in times of
anxiety, low-grade fever and joint pains.
DOSAGE: One to five drops taken on the tongue as often as desired and required.
GARLIC
A Ilium sativum
PROPERTIES AND USES: Antibiotic,

baffling disorders, lowers high blood pressure,
CO-Q 10 source.
COMMON NAMES: Clove Garlic, Garlic

Cloves.
PARTS USED: Whole bulb.
BODILY INFLUENCES: This is the

dominant member of the onion family. It
leaves no doubt of its presence. True, there is
odorless garlic, but then without its
penetrating odor, it's just another onion. The
word Garlic means spear-like and refers to its
leaf shape. Ah, but in its true state, its wonders are proclaimed as the "secret" of countless
self help books. Its reputation is indeed well deserved.
142
Known in and
_ since Biblical times
. for its antibiotic qualities and as a "cure for heart
problems." Its ability to lower high blood pressure has been
noted in many cultures throughout the world. The modern
malady of arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) is
corrected as well. Intestinal infections such as diarrhea and the
dis-eases of cholera, typhoid and parathyroid have been
conquered by Garlic. Liver and gallbladder function perk right
up under its function. Putrid conditions and mucus of the
digestive and intestinal tract are cleared by Garlic. Garlic
enemas can be given for the same reason.

DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops after meals, or four times per day for Dr. Eugene C. Watkins
more serious conditions. For cleansing antibiotic garlic enemas,
40 drops per cup of water.
GENTIAN
Gentiana lutea
PROPERTIES AND USES: Tonic,

lifesaving digestaid, gout, fever, powerful
alterative (changes for the good), fevers,
oxygenator, general debility, anxiety,
increased immunity, female weakness,
dizziness.
COMMON NAME: Yellow Gentian,

Bitter Root, Enzian.
PARTS USED: Root.

invigorating tonic is handed down to us from the very early antiquity of medicine, from the
Greeks, Arabs and others, long forgotten. In Germany &
Austria, it is customary in pubs to include on the shelf, a
little clay jug with a glazed finish and the characteristic
blue Gentian flower and is dispensed under the name
Enzian (Gentian) as an immediate remedy of over
indulgence. While its taste does not immediately
recommend its use, its effect is sought after and a person
learns to appreciate its taste for that reason. Its roots
contain a vast quantity of condensed oxygen, thus occurs
an exhilarating tonic action. Recognized medical use from
the time of antiquity to date would fill a volume all its
own. Perhaps it is best for us to think of it as containing — —
six powerful digestaids. The Dispensatory of the U.S. Bottle Gentian - dentiana ancirewsii
offers this word of highly significant and workable advice Photograph by Barbara Jacobs
in the use of Gentian: "It is the condition of the stomach
and the system generally, not the name of the dis-ease which must be taken into consideration

when prescribing it. There is scarcely a complaint in which it cannot be advantageously given
under all circumstances." At once a person sees a prevailing philosophy by which the
herbalist is often considered to work miracles. While diagnostic machines with mysterious
names and "buzzers and lights," are no doubt impressive and expensive, they are not
necessary to building better health naturally. What is necessary is to know the remedy and
use it. Beyond this, happy chemists in their sterile towers can busy themselves finding the
mechanisms of herbs or why a remedy works the way it does. When they do, we will be
receptive to hear their findings, as it will be interesting. But for the herbalist, building better
health is as simple as recognizing we do have herbal solutions for physical problems, seeing
what herbs are needed to get at the root cause of the malfunction in that area of the body and
using it. Then health returns and we are all happier.
DOSAGE: 10 to 40 drops following meals or more if overindulgence demands.
GINGER ROOT
Zingiber officinale
Asarum canadense, L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Stimulant,

dispeptic (settles upset stomach),
diaphoretic (promotes elimination by
sweating), diuretic (water retention),
carminative (dispels gas), digestaid,
female circulation.
COMMON NAME: Canada Snake

Root, African Ginger, Black Ginger.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Although

Ginger has been known and enjoyed
by both sexes in Japan and China for
thousands of years, it can be truly said
to be
especially
the woman's
friend. Ginger is traditionally used with great relish as a digestaid
by Chinese and Japanese and is served with the food. For the • I

carries warmth and removes obstructions. If flow of milk is too ,
scant and the baby demands feeding every two hours, rest can be
afforded by enriching the milk flow by mother taking Ginger. The Ginger - Asarum canadense, L
stimulating and warming effect when taken as a tonic are a true Photograph by
comfort, especially in northern climates. Should a person decide I Dr. Eugene C. Watkins
to put a little Ginger in his or her life, the benefits of the herb will I
not be disappointing. Many an upset stomach has been prevented and corrected by the use of
144
Ginger. Its action is swift and effective. Russian experience reports great relief with Ginger in
the maladies of migraine, alcohol and lymphatic problems, as well as heart troubles, heart
palpitations and lack of stamina in children.
DOSAGE: One to 40 drops as desired. If tormenting gas, 40 to 80 drops in a cup of water

and then go someplace where you can be alone.
GINKGO
Ginkgo biloba

Memory, Alzheimer's, brain
circulation improvement, recovery
from stroke, ringing in the ears,
baffling disorders, eats free radicals
poisons.
COMMON NAMES: Madien Hair

Tree, Ginkgo Tree.
PARTS USED: Leaves
BODILY INFLUENCES: The

leaves and other parts of these
ancient trees, of which there are two kinds, male trees and female trees, have been found
fossilized in layers of rock from the time when dinosaurs roamed the Earth. The Ginkgo tree
was thought to be long extinct. Then, during the last century some seeds turned up in a
hollow rock in China. No one knew what kind of seeds they were. They were planted and
they grew! Low and behold, they turned out to be the seeds of the long extinct Ginkgo
(Ginkgo Biloba) tree. Recent clinical testing has revealed both long and short-term memory
are improved, for all ages and body conditions, by the use of Ginkgo leaves. Tests indicate
Ginkgo solves the memory problem caused by a condition known as cerebral ischemia
(is-kee-me-uh, brain anemia) where the blood vessels to the brain do not carry enough blood,
also sometimes described as cerebral vascular insufficiency. Whatever it is called, the
results are impaired mental performance. Tests indicate Ginkgo solves this problem. Tests
also indicate, one of the ways Ginkgo solves this problem, is by acting as a vasodilator
(an agent which opens constricted blood vessels). The importance of proper circulation in the
maintenance of good health and the reversal of dis-eases can hardly be underestimated. We
are indeed grateful for this gift to memory and its presence with us again today. Fossil
records indicate, in the ancient past, Ginkgo grew throughout North America and many other
regions. Many people now have a Ginkgo tree again for its beauty and thick shade. You
might say it has come home. Ginkgo's role in memory improvement is to bring oxygen and
blood sugar to the brain and thus, normalize brain function. Those who suffer from
hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) and Alzheimer's dis-ease
(ahlts'-hi-merz), thought disturbances occurring in the onset of senility are benefited by
Ginkgo's assistance in the proper release of energy to the nervous system for normalization
145
of mental activity. The TEXTBOOK OF NATURAL MEDICINE, Vol. I, Ginkgo Biloba,

published by Bastyr College, Natural Health Sciences, Seattle, Washington, 1993,
Drs. Pizzorno and Murray, presents extensive and careful research to show, as circulation
to the brain normalizes with the use of Ginkgo, these conditions are reversed: "senility,
dizziness, headache, lack of vigilance, macular degeneration (deterioration of the fine focus
area in the back of the eye), diabetic retinopathy (fat in arteries causing poor circulation and
subsequent deterioration of the image reception area in the back of the eye), ringing in the
ears, hearing loss, depression, short term memory loss, angina (heart pain due to reduced
blood supply), intermittent claudication (klaw-duh-ka'-shun, pain in the calf of the leg(s) due
to insufficient blood circulation), impotency (when due to arterial insufficiency) and asthma
(Ginkgo acting as an anti-allergy agent)." This information clearly indicates, Ginkgo can be
taken for prevention of problems as well as their reversal. Certainly, in the prevention of
strokes and heart attacks and those conditions mentioned, Ginkgo should be considered as a
valued herb.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops three times per day as maintenance. 80 to 120 drops three times
per day in therapeutic use for the reversal of serious conditions.
GOLD THREAD
Coptis trifolia

Reverse alcohol abuse, repair canker
sores, stomach ulcers.
COMMON NAMES: Mouthwort,

Canker Root, Yellow Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The

roots of this plant truly look like
thin, golden wire. It is the product of
cold, northern swamps and mossy
woods. Given occasionally
(10 drops per week to children), it can prevent pinworms. Combined half and half with
Golden Seal, we have a combination to bring about disgust for alcohol (here you have further
proof of the action of a water and grain alcohol extract, as an agent capable of reversing
alcohol abuse). 40 drops following nutritious meals, and a willingness to stop alcohol abuse,
brings about success. Gold Thread may be used full strength as a wash in the mouth to repair
canker sores ("slick spots" that hurt), and taken internally to do the same for stomach ulcers.
Gargle with one half water and one half Gold Thread for sore throat. Gold Thread also brings
about the return of the true appetite and assists digestion if taken 20 to 40 drops per meal.
DOSAGE: 20 to 40 drops per meal or as given above.

Golden Bough sp.
. ' ''

BODILY INFLUENCES: The leaves are the parts used,
not the berries. As such, they are beneficial to your health,
contrary to what you may have been taught. This is like
the old problem with the potato, the part you eat comes from under the ground and is a good
food. If you cook and eat the part that grows above the ground it can kill you. You don't fear
eating potatoes, and you need have no fear of adding Golden Bough leaves to your diet.
Golden Bough is for nerves that are worn to a frazzle. If you feel like crying when someone
points their finger at you, it's Golden Bough time. Due to our ancestral memory, many of us
do still associate this plant with joy and well-being at Christmas time. To lower chronic high
blood pressure due to nervous tension and to correct balance problems and epilepsy, nervous
system instability, anxiety, paralysis, weak pulse, poor outflow of blood with each heart
contraction (tired from walking across the room), enlarged heart and water retention and high
blood pressure, put 40 to 80 drops of Golden Bough along with an equal amount of Herbal
Adj. in a cup and drink it as needed. Golden Bough, among its other virtues, is a beautiful
storehouse for the mineral element zinc, which prevents the formation of certain cancers. In
Germany, Golden Bough is given medically to post-operative cancer patients to raise their
immunity and thus prevent reoccurrence of the cancer. Let's take it now and avoid the
problem altogether.
DOSAGE: Five to 80 drops every 4 hours, while awake for crisis. 40 to 80 drops daily for
maintenance.
GOLDEN SEAL
Hydrastis canadensis, L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Tonic, alterative (works

on all body systems), antibiotic, yellow dye for
clothing, varicose veins, infections of veins, diabetes.
COMMON NAME: Yellow Root, Hydrastis, Orange

Root, Ground Raspberry, Yellow Puccon, Yellow
Paint Root.
PARTS USED: The rhizome (underground stem) and

the roots.
147
BODILY INFLUENCES: The Cherokee Indians first noticed that their clothing dyers using
nnlrlen Real fnr unit-len vellnut aarmentc never ant ill Thp vellnut
shirt wearers were also frequently spared from common illnesses.

Through this observation, it was discovered that Golden Seal was
responsible for their good fortune. The plant was held in great
esteem and reverence in their herbal pharmacopoeia (list of
medicines). Since that time, the use of Golden Seal has spread
throughout the world to relieve not only common contagious
illnesses, but to rid the circulation of blue and blocked veins
resulting in varicose veins. Cold and bluish lips, hands and feet
may benefit from this function also. Golden Seal is the great Golden Seal
catalyst herb, which will boss the function of other herbs with Hydrastis canadensis, L
which it is combined. It will stay on the job, supervising activities Photograph by

of the work crew, and will Dr. Eugene C. Watkins
do the job it has to. Used
in the mouth to correct pyorrhea (swollen gums), it is
massaged into the gums every evening. Golden Seal
exerts its rank over the injustices of stomach ulcers,
diarrhea, indigestion, skin eruptions, small pox,
scarlet fever, enlarged tonsils, sore throat, colds, abuse
of infectious constipation and any job it is given. It
has been found to effectively reduce excess blood
sugar in diabetes. It is taken only when needed and
sources of B complex such as yeast, yogurt, rice bran,
and liver are taken with it to feed its function and
prevent its depletion of the B complex during its
work. Golden Seal is in the heavy-duty class among the herbs of the herbal kingdom and is
truly an herb for all seasons.
DOSAGE: Five to 20 drops are taken after meals or every hour during a crisis condition.
GORSE
Ulex europaeus
PROPERTIES AND USES: This herb is for a person who is

experiencing the condition of "hopelessness."
COMMON NAMES: Gorse.
PARTS USED: Flower essence.
BODILY INFLUENCES: This remedy as given during the

• a. first half of the 20th century by Dr. Edward Bach, the
renowned English physician and homoeopath (practitioner of
the science of "like cures like"), is a remedy, from the wild
flowers of the hardy Gorse bush, for a person who is
experiencing the condition of "hopelessness." Dr. Bach
assures, that a person who takes the remedy faithfully will, one day, no longer need it.
148
DOSAGE: Take three drops on or under the tongue four times per day. Take faithfully, even
when the "hopeless" feeling is not there at the moment, and take until it is certain the remedy
is no longer necessary. In times of emergency, if the feeling of "hopelessness" is intense put
12 drops in a cup of water and sip slowly until the feeling lifts.
GOTU KOLA
Centella asiatica
PROPERTIES AND USES: Memory, blood

cleaner, high blood pressure, mental depression,
reduces brain fatigue, scaly skin, baffling disorders.
COMMON NAMES: Indian Pennywort, Marsh

Penny, Indian Hydrocotyle, White Rot, Thick-leaved
Pennywort, Hydrocotyle.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Tiny, delicate water lily from the island of Sri Lanka (formerly
Ceylon) off the southeastern coast of India. This is the plant the famed "elephants of Ceylon"
snatched up a mouthful of before going into the water for their frolic. The memories of these
elephants were said to be phenomenal and the subject of many stories and much amazement.
Guess what? People can eat Gotu Kola leaves also and their memory can improve. Memory
temporarily winking out is not just a problem of the aged, as you well know. Younger folks
just don't talk about it. If you would live, and live well, for a very long time you must have a
very powerful nervous system and this is what Gotu Kola produces. Gotu Kola reduces brain
fatigue and revitalizes worn out bodies. In many religious orders, Gotu Kola is used to
correct conditions of the skin that look like fish scales (ichthyoids), and parasitic swellings of
the body (elephantiasis), leprosy, syphilitic ulcers and bruises. "Mental disorders" and blood
pressure problems have also yielded to the blood cleaning and brain restoring powers of Gotu
Kola. Gotu Kola also deserves its reputation as a poison antidote.
DOSAGE: Therapeutically and for memory, 20 to 40 drops three times per day after meals,
but you must remember to take it. For a stronger nervous system, brain, and memory, a year
of use can make a great difference and thereafter, 20 to 40 drops per day as a maintenance.
GRAPE SEED
Vitis vinifera
PROPERTIES AND USES: Antioxidant, has free

radical scavenging properties, seeks out and destroys
poisons.
COMMON NAMES: Grape Seed.
PARTS USED: Seed.
149
BODILY INFLUENCES: (Made from organically grown grapes) I know that many of you
desire to have a good source of Grape Seed (pro-antho-cyanidins) for their antioxidant and
free radical scavenging properties. We have that. It is made from the seeds of organically
grown grapes. This is important. Grapes are sometimes heavily sprayed with some rather
nasty poisons. Some of these poisons wind up inside the grapes and inside the seeds
themselves. That presents us with a dilemma. Are we adding to the problem of what makes
cells go wild and produce bad cells, or are we, hopefully, doing more good than harm with
the protective part of the grape seed? Rather than get into that puzzle, wouldn't it be better to
just use organically raised grapes as a source of our product? We thought so, and that is why
we did not have a liquid Grape Seed extract product, like everyone else, right away.
*Proanthocyandins, antioxidants and free radicals scavengers are terms used as, roughly, the
same things these day. In common terms, they mean compounds from nature, which seek out
and destroy poisons, which make us age too rapidly or die too soon, or both.
DOSAGE: 40 drops per meal.
GRAVEL ROOT
Eupatorium pupureum
PROPERTIES AND USES: Kidney and

urinary problems, stones, impotency, gout,
rheumatism discomfort.
COMMON NAMES: Queen of the Meadow,

Joe-pye, Trumpet Weed, Purple Thoroughwort,
Kidney Root, Grave Weed, Hempweed.
Gravel Root - Eupatorium pupureum
Photograph by Barbara Jacobs PARTS USED: Phizome, leaves, flowers.
BODILY INFLUENCES: As its name implies, Gravel

Root's primary function is in the dissolving of stones in the
kidneys, urinary bladder and gallbladder or anywhere else
stone deposits occur in the body. Uric acid accumulations
often deposit in the joints due to nerve stress and poor diet.
These thousands of tiny, sharp crystals are known to cause
great agony at times, even in normal movements. These can
be dissolved with Gravel Root. Additionally, Gravel Root
increases urinary flow and may be used when urinary flow
is scant and for foul odor. Happily, Gravel Root is a
recognized agent to restore fertility for those who are sterile. Gravel Root - Eupatorium pupureum
DOSAGE: 10 to 40 drops three times per day. Six to eight, '

12 oz. glasses of spring water are also taken daily to complete the flushing of stone deposits
or acid crystals.
150
GREASE WOOD (CHAPARRAL)
Larrea Tridentata; I. divaricata;

ZYGOPHYLLACEAE
PROPERTIES AND USES: Antibiotic,

antiseptic, antifungal, antibacterial,
nourishing, cleaning corrective, dissolves
"bad cells", cleans out drug L.S.D.
COMMON NAMES: Chaparral,

Creosote Bush, Black Bush, Grease Bush,
Gobonadora, Dwaif Evergreen Oak.
PARTS USED: Leaves and small stems.
BODILY INFLUENCES: This remedy comes from the American Indian Pharmacopoeia
(listing of official Indian medicines). Greasewood bush has dark, sticky, resinous-filled
leaves and stems. It has the distinct taste of telephone poles or creosote, hence its common
name Greasewood Bush. It performs a very valuable service as a douche for the female
system (20 drops of extract to a cup of water). Greasewood is most valuable due to the rising
widespread use of commercial antibiotics whose use encourages the growth of many types of
fungi (funguses), in the body. Jason Winter's Red Clover Tea Blend employs Greasewood as
an agent to dissolve tumors and cancers on the advice of the American Indian. Indeed, of the
Indian nations, the Eapoch, Pimas, and Maricopias of the desert southwest have long
employed Greasewood to be effective in the following conditions: weight reducing, prostate
trouble, skin and stomach cancer, leukemia, cancer, arthritis, warts, chronic backache,
bronchitis troubles and to stimulate normal hair growth. Studies indicate Greasewood may
remove L.S.D. residues and prevent acid "flashbacks."
DOSAGE: 10 to 40 drops one to three times per day depending on severity of condition.
Two to three bowel movements per day are recommended, when using Chaparral to complete
the cleaning process.
GREEN GINGER SEE: MUG WORT
(GREEN HULL) BLACK WALNUT
Juglans nigra
PROPERTIES AND USES: Kills body parasites.
COMMON NAMES: English Walnut, European

Walnut.
PARTS USED: Hull.
BODILY INFLUENCES: This extract is made
151
from the green hull of the Black Walnut, which covers the shell, and contains the nutmeat
before the hull turns black. The extract is used as a safe method to kill body parasites without
killing the person.
DOSAGE: 40 drops three times per day.
GROUND IVY
Nepeta glechoma
PROPERTIES AND USES: Lead

poisoning, baffling disorders, muscle
atrophy (foot or wrist drop).
COMMON NAMES: Gillrun, Hedge

Maids, Hove, Robin-run-in-the-hedge,
Tun Hoof Cat's Foot, Hay Maids,
Alehoof Gill-go-over-the-ground, Robin
Run Away, Catspaw, Carrion Flower.
BODILY INFLUENCES: (Alehoof,

Gill-Go-Over-The-Ground) Plumbers used to work with lead pipes (Plumbum is the Latin
word for the metal lead), and hat makers drew patterns with real lead pencils and,
customarily, wetted the tip in their mouth. Needless to say they often went "mad as a hatter"
with lead poisoning. A remedy had to be found, and it was found in this low growing, tiny
flowered, square stemmed representative of the mint family. Ground Ivy is a specific for
removing this deadly metal lead from the system. For many years the burning of leaded
gasoline spewed this heavy metal into the air and from there, into ground water systems and
soil and into our drinking water and food. Older homes still have lead pipes, and older house
paints commonly contained lead. The problem is still with us, as lead does not break down.
Indications of lead poisoning listed in the medical work of Taber's Cyclopedia Medical
Dictionary are as follows:
"Anorexia (chronic loss of appetite), nausea, vomiting, salivation, anemia, the lead line on the
gums, purging, abdominal pains, muscle cramps and pains in the joints. One of the most
typical findings is the abdominal pain known as lead colic. There may be an impairment of
any part of the nervous system, often leading to muscle atrophy (at'-ro-fee, wasting away)
and the characteristic foot or wrist drop. Various blood changes may be found, especially the
"stippling" of the red (blood) cells."
152
HAIR, NAILS, AND SKIN (H. N. & S. -W)
PROPERTIES AND USES: For the growth and repair

of hair, nails, skin and restoration of normal hair growth
and color.
BODILY INFLUENCES: This combination should be

used in cases of poor nails, hair loss, graying hair, and
need for greater "body." When the skin is dry, cracking
or flaking, the nutrients needed, will be found in this
combination. Prevents peeling and splitting of nails and
retarded nail growth. Splitting nails, peeling nails, or
thin nails usually show results within 30 days. For hair
problems, 9 months to one year of use may be expected
to produce satisfactory results. In due course the hair
may feel silky and resilient when rolled between the
fingers as the mineral element silicon is replenished;
hair will no longer split. Settles nerves in sluggish
thyroid, warms up cold hands and feet and tip of nose.
Promotes energy and weight loss by turning the body thermostat up to normal. The glow of
health is the true friend of beauty. Enjoy it.
COMBINATION: Dulse, Horsetail, Rosemary, Sage.
DOSAGE: 40 drops, three times per day.
HAWKWEED SEE: RUPTUREWORT
HAWTHORN
Crataegus oxvacanthus
PROPERTIES AND USES: Heart regulation

and repair, heart food.
COMMON NAMES: Noble Epine, Quickset,

Thorn Apple Tree, May Tree, White Thorn.
PARTS USED: Berries, leaves, bark, flowers.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Is a food for the heart.

The English Hawthorn tree produces a fruit much
like a crab apple, which the human heart finds an
attractive and desirable food to correct and regenerate itself. In practice, this tiny apple, its
seed, the leaves and blossoms of the tree are a beautiful food to support the heart's normal
function and/or correct the heart function. It is a good form of "life insurance." Do not be
alarmed if you feel "pin prick" sensations around the heart with its use. This is an indication
that the heart and its circulatory vessels are being cleaned.
153
DOSAGE: 10 to 40 drops three times per day. For maintenance, 40 drops once per day.
HEART TONIC (H.T. COMB.) (HT)
PROPERTIES AND USES: Cardiac tonic -

specific. Repair of heart and circulatory system,
high blood pressure normalize.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Heart herbs which

nourish the heart and repair valves, reduce swelling,
restore feeble heart action, open congested heart
blood vessels that are clogged, very slowly, so that
the congestive debris is liquified and flushed
harmlessly from the body. "Living heart insurance
policy"; grow your own new heart instead of a
transplant. You have a new soft tissue body every
four months. Make it a better one. You can make a
tremendous difference in a years time with the
regular use of Heart Tonic and walking for exercise.
HAWTHORN: Long kept the secret of a Scottish

physician, old hearts were traded for new ones.
Nature's own transplant was achieved as a new heart grew into the place of the old, defective
one. Hawthorn feeds the heart muscle directly. It opens closed and cramping blood vessels to
prevent coronary infarction (heart attack due to spastic blood vessels). Hawthorn is
engineered in such a way that opening blood vessels occur without trapped debris clogging
up a blood vessel somewhere else as it is released.
MYRRH: Myrrh is the gummy, bitter, exuded resin from

the bark of thorny trees in the Middle Eastern countries. It
was one of the three gifts given to Jesus of Nazareth at his
birth. Myrrh has the undisputed reputation to function in the
binding up of wounds and as a healer of open wounds. It is
truly fit for a king. It is now known that Myrrh is extremely
effective in speeding up the flow of sluggish circulatory
fluid by a factor of four to one. This along with its catalyst
(regulatory) properties with other herbs make it beneficial
for the heart and the circulatory system. The heart's thirst Developing Hawthorn
for circulation is quenched by its use.
Crataegus oxyacanthus
Photograph by
MOTHERWORT: This bitter mint is part of the common
knowledge of many Indian nations. It receives top honors as Dr. Eugene C. Watkins
their heart medicine. Not only does it calm the nerves and
prevent spasms, but acts as a tonic and helps regulate the menstrual cycle. Motherwort
removes obstructions especially of the mucous type. The nerves to the heart and arteries are
calmed and supported. Motherwort is a specific for albumen (egg white in the urine).
154
GENERAL REMARKS: Seldom has there been a more satisfying experience for a
ilatutupaunt., 1../l1lAl1 man, vvct a piiu UI vvin.o UI
months, to hear a weak and enfeebled heart build itself

back to a strong and even rhythmic contraction with the
sound of a kettle drum, and to watch pressure subside to a
normal level. With the leading cause of death today
statistically stated as heart failure, action is needed.
Routine examination reveals the spread of heart dis-ease
to be nearly universal. As always, prevention today is yet
the rescuer from miseries. A living health insurance
policy might be afforded for us by the daily intake of
known heart herbs.
Ripe Hawthorn
COMBINATION: Hawthorn, Myrrh, Motherwort. Crataegus oxyacanthus

DOSAGE: 20 drops, twice per day for one week, and
thereafter, 40 drops, twice per day. If capsules are preferred, three capsules three times per
day.
NOTE: The Hawthorn in this combination enthusiastically clean out waste nitrites and
nitrates from the heart area in their haste to prevent disaster. When this occurs, slight twinges
or stings may occasionally be felt around the heart area. There is no cause for alarm, as no
actual damage is occurring, only good things. Usually, after about a week, this work is done
and the amount taken can be increased to 40 drops, twice per day, without alarming a person.
HERBAL ADJUSTMENT (HERBAL ADJ.)
PROPERTIES AND USES: Headaches, shoulder and

neck tension, stop cramping, arthritic discomfort,
distortion of the spine, joint and muscle pains, sports
injuries, stop heart attacks and strokes, stop internal
bleeding.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Is a quick acting

dramatically effective procedure for relief of headaches,
leg cramps, menstrual cramping, arthritic discomfort,
sports injuries, back discomfort, neck and shoulder
tension, heart attacks, strokes and internal bleeding. For
relief of pain and cramping two liquids are applied to
the skin, one is Peppermint Oil which is cool and the
second is a combination of herbs known as Herbal ADJ.
which is hot. The Peppermint oil is applied first and the
Herbal ADJ. second. The procedure of using these two
liquids together is called an "Herbal Adjustment." In some cases, as given here, Herbal ADJ.
is also taken internally and will be described individually. This procedure will not interfere
with medication and will not make a person "groggy." Needles and injections are not used.
HEADACHES AND TENSION - For headaches, apply 1st Peppermint Oil from the tip of
the tailbone, up the spine, and on to the neck and the back of the head, on the scalp, and on
155
up to the top of the head. Make the application about the width of the person's hand. Next,
apply the two liquids to the temples and forehead. Have the person lean the head back so as
to avoid getting any of the liquids in the eyes. (Should an accident occur, flush thoroughly
with water, remain calm and peace will return). Also apply to any additional areas of the
head, which are hurting. Finally, apply in front of and behind the ears, down the neck on both
sides and out to the shoulders. This complete application will have an effect on the entire
nervous system of the body. The affects are quick and relief is swift. Repeat as needed. For
additional help, if needed, put 40 to 80 drops of Herbal ADJ. in a cup of water and drink it
down. Do not sip as it is hot and best to get it over with as soon as possible. If a mild
headache is in progress, usually an application of the two liquids to the temples, forehead and
back of the neck are all that is needed for headache relief.
CHIROPRACTIC ADJUSTMENTS - The Herbal Adjustment liquids penetrate quickly

into troubled areas. After application the liquids at once relax the nerves and muscles, which
then allows the bones to go back into their proper places and the circulation resumes its
normal function. In this way oxygenation and relaxation of cramping muscle pain is
alleviated. The Herbal Adjustment liquids may be applied several times in extreme
conditions and then repeated as needed. Do not get into eyes, and wash hands after
application. Application before a chiropractic adjustment makes for a very easy and quick
adjustment. It will be noted the adjustment is speeded up and "sticks" (stays in place) far
longer.
ARTHRITIC DISCOMFORTS - For arthritic discomforts the two liquids are applied to the
area as needed.
CRAMPING AND MENSTRUAL CRAMPING - If cramping or menstrual cramping,

apply the two liquids directly to the offending area. If additional help is needed put 40 drops
of the combination Herbal Adj. in a cup of water and drink it. (Herbal ADJ. will not stop a
normal menstrual flow as it is a natural bleeding). Repeat as necessary.
HEART ATTACKS, STROKES AND INTERNAL BLEEDING - To stop a heart attack,

stroke or internal bleeding put 40 to 80 drops of the Herbal ADJ. in a cup of water and drink
it. Also, apply to chest and neck or area(s) of bleeding. Repeat as needed. If stress is great
and a heart attack is a real possibility while you are trying to repair the heart with other herbs
such as Myrrh and Mullein, (and or others, SEE: HISTORICAL USES OF HERBS &
PROGRAMS at the beginning of this work) use Herbal Adj. to keep yourself alive during the
process even if it takes months. Lives have been saved, by doing this.
"LIVER SPOTS" - Or "age spots," as they are also called, dissolve easily with the
continued daily application of Herbal Adj. on the spots. Please consider that in some way, the
body is not functioning as it should or these "liver spots" or "waste dumps" of concentrated
pigment, would not have appeared in the first place. If they do occur again, then think in
terms of improving overall health as needed, such as digestion and bowel elimination, to start
with. For suggestions consult the HISTORICAL USES OF HERBS & PROGRAMS in the
front of this work. (Remember to follow the advice about not rubbing your eyes after
application of Herbal Adj. or bringing Herbal Adj. into contact with private areas. If an
accident, then follow the advice as given earlier in this topic).
156
SKIN CANCERS - It must be observed, to be truly appreciated, how the daily and persistent
application of Herbal Adj. externally to skin cancers, dries them up, causes them to fall off
and leave healthy, pink skin in their place. This process can take as little as a matter of days
or two weeks and, in some cases, up to six and nine months or more, but it does work. It is
suspected that when Herbal Adj. takes so long to do its job, that it is working, on a problem
much deeper inside the body, of long standing, and you are working on something more than
just skin deep. Never-the-less, praise the Creator, it does work. Persistence is the key here, no
matter what, continue the application at least once per day and for more desperate conditions,
three and four times per day until results. Before you heal anything you usually have to slow
the condition down and then stabilize it. Then reversal can take place. But, in the meantime,
you are not getting any worse and that is a kind of victory too. Many Practitioners also use
Vitamin E Oil from capsule(s) on the area first and then apply Herbal Adj. on top of that.
This reduces any possible irritation and assists in repairing the area more quickly, with the
prevention of any possible scar tissue.
SPORTS INJURIES - For sports injuries such as sprains, twists, bumps, bruises, torn
tendons, ligaments, etc., apply Arnica to the area to take the physical shock out of the nerves,
then Peppermint Oil and then Herbal ADJ. to the area for relief of pain and to correct the
circulation. Then, apply the repair formula OL' NUMBER 11 (SEE: OL' NUMBER 11) to
start the repair process. This is done as soon after the injury as possible. Repeat every 3 to 4
hours as needed. However, it should not be thought that this procedure will not tackle chronic
and old injuries with equal determination, because it will. The night procedure for sports
injuries is to open capsules of 100 to 400 i.u. of Vitamin E (i.u.'s = International Units,
meaning a system of measurement for the amount of a liquid vitamin) and apply the oil to
the injured area. Then, soak a natural fiber cheesecloth or gauze with the repair formula
OL' NUMBER 11 and wrap the area with the cloth. The larger the wrap, the greater and
quicker the affect. Wrap this then with plastic sandwich wrap, and an additional cloth wrap
around this, to hold everything in place for the night. This procedure forms a thermal and
moisture barrier, to drive the herbs into the area and pull poisons out, in a time-release action
during the night. The herbs are driven into the body, congestion is broken up, swelling
reduced and function restored. There is a two-way traffic flow here. Herbs are pushed into
the body area and poisons are pulled up and sweated out of the body at the same time. The
next morning remove the application and discard the herbal cloth as it is "spent" and contains
poisons. Wash the area and allow it to dry. Note: This process of applying an herbal tea or
herbal extract to the body soaked in cloth is known as a fomentation (foh'-men-tay-shun). For
the daytime, apply the herb Arnica, Peppermint Oil and Herbal ADJ. every 3-4 hours. Repeat
this daytime and nighttime process until the area is repaired.
LOWER HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE - To lower dangerously high blood pressure, put 40
to 80 drops of Herbal Adj. and 40 to 80 drops of Golden Bough in a cup of water and drink it.
Repeat as needed.
CHIROPRACTIC PHYSICIANS: When the area to be adjusted is too tense for the needed
procedure, Peppermint Oil and Herbal ADJ. applied to the spine, neck and shoulders rapidly
relaxes the areas. Then, minimal pressure is required to achieve remarkable results.
MASSAGE THERAPISTS: Peppermint Oil and Herbal ADJ. applied to tense areas of the
spine, neck, shoulder and other areas (avoid eyes, under arm and private areas) produce a
warming and relaxing effect, which makes therapeutic massage a very rewarding experience.
157
GENERAL NOTE: If for some reason a person should have an allergic reaction to
Peppermint Oil, (if there is one, it is usually confined to temporary redness of the skin) many
practitioners enjoy the use of Oil of Cajeput in its place.
NOTE: Just the Herbal ADJ. combination is put in water to make the drink. If a Peppermint
tea is desired, only 1 - 2 drops of the oil to a cup of water makes a good tea.
COMBINATION: Black Cohosh, Blue Vervain, Capsicum, Indian Tobacco, Siberian

Ginseng.
DOSAGE: As given in the above work. Additionally, Herbal ADJ. can be given as part of a
daily herb regimen, to "spark" an herbal program and get it to work, at the rate of 40 drops in
a cup of water, 1 to 4 times per day.
HE SHOU WU
Polygonum multiforum
PROPERTIES AND USES: Cardiovascular dis-ease

(heart and circulatory system problems), selenium
source.
COMMON NAMES: Foti Root.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: (He'-shoe-woo,

sometimes also pronounced ho'shoe-woo) Is a well-
known and cherished herb in traditional Chinese medicine, whose scientific name is
Polygonum multiflorum. h is now known, through modern investigative techniques, that
HE SHOU WU is very high in the vital trace element mineral, Selenium. This knowledge
allows us to better understand why it has been used with such success for cardiovascular
dis-ease (heart and circulatory system problems). As nearly as can be observed, this trace
element works in a manner similar to Vitamin E. That is to say, it acts as an anti-oxidant and
keeps body cells from breaking down more rapidly than they can be replaced. This also
suggests the reason for continued reports of taking He Shou Wu and living long and well
without the ravages of aging running rampant with an individual.
DOSAGE: As a daily cellular maintenance, 40 drops, three times per day. To correct more
involved conditions, 80 drops to one teaspoon, three times per day.
HIBISCUS FLOWERS
Hibiscus sabdariffa
PROPERTIES AND USES: Astonishingly large amounts of two valuable trace mineral
elements, chromium and selenium, destroys harmful cancer causing compounds in the body,
known as "free radicals." Selenium does this by protecting the genetic machinery of the cell
nucleus or "cell headquarters", when it is in the process of division to form new body cells.
158
Selenium also corrects heart and circulatory dis-eases by preventing the break down of the
circulatory system.
COMMON NAMES: Shoe Black Plant, Chinese Rose.
PARTS USED: Flowers.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Contain an astonishingly large amount of two valuable trace

mineral elements, chromium and selenium. While it is true that many sea vegetables do
contain these trace elements as well, no other single herb has been found with levels as high
for these two vital trace elements combined, as in the flower petals of this splendid tropical
and sub-tropical flower. In order for us to tolerate
and use the glucose (blood sugar) normally present
in our blood stream, chromium is needed so the
nerves and brain can function properly. The body
makes a substance with chromium in it called
Glucose Tolerance Factor. With this the body can
then produce and use the hormone, correcting the
dis-ease condition know as sugar diabetes (where
insulin is not produced in sufficient quantity or even
at all). The trace element Selenium functions much
like the oil based vitamin complex known
collectively as Vitamin E, when it comes to
destroying harmful cancer causing compounds in
the body, known as "free radicals." Selenium does

this by protecting the genetic machinery of the cell nucleus or "cell headquarters," when it is
in the process of division to form new body cells. Selenium also corrects heart and
circulatory dis-eases by preventing the break down of the circulatory system.
HOODIA
Hoodia Gordonii
PROPERTIES AND USES: Substains food satisfaction,

weight loss.
COMMON NAMES: Hoodia.
PARTS USED: "Cactus" above ground.
BODILY INFLUENCES: You have tried all the rest.

Now try the best! This is the herb for weight loss. If
you are serious about weight loss, now you have the
support to do it. The herb Hoodia may be the answer
you have been waiting for. It is a small "cactus
looking" plant two to three inches tall. The plant comes
159
from the desert of South Africa where conditions are harsh, at best. The plants, the people
and the animals there are hardy resourceful survivors. It is the perfect home for the plant
Hoodia. People who live there are known to chase a rain cloud for miles just to get a
drink of water. They have learned many skills to survive and they know what to do when
they must go on a long trip to find food and shelter. Enter the herb Hoodia. When they
take the herb it tells the body to use its resources and not spend its time being hungry for
food. You don't have to live where food is scarce to take the herb. If you decide to take it
you can choose if you want to eat or not. Some people say ten drops at a time, as needed,
is enough. Other people say they need as much as one teaspoon three or four times per
day to keep from getting hungry. Hoodia is not known to have harmful side effects. You
might say it has been "field tested" for hundreds of years without a problem! Make sure
you get the real plant when you buy a product labeled, "Hoodia." There are a least a
dozen different kinds of this little "cactus-like" plant and only one of these types is the
highest quality. It is known as Hoodia gordonii. The world's supply of this herb is
limited, therefore making it hard to locate and very costly. After all, it only grows in the
desert. This particular plant is regulated and only so much of it can be collected and sold.
This ensures that the herb will not be over-collected and be available for future
generations. This is why it is really expensive. But, if it works for you then is it really
expensive? Only you can say. Our Hoodia is put into a liquid form so it goes to work
right away. Oh yes, when you taste our liquid Hoodia you will see what the genuine
weight loss Hoodia really tastes like. We invite you to compare its taste and effectiveness
with anything else you have used that calls itself Hoodia. Go for it!

DOSAGE: 10 drops to 1 teaspoon as needed.
HOPS
Humulus luplus, L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Radiation poisoning,

Niacin source, potassium, sleep well.
COMMON NAMES: Hops.
PARTS USED: Leaves.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Sleep well. Calm nerves.

Provide hormones, especially for the female system.
Clears up skin problems of all kinds, including
ringworm. Apply externally and take internally. Use
externally for skin discoloration, as well as for sores of
the skin. Hops contain one of the richest known sources
of a Vitamin B known as Niacin, which can produce a beneficial "purple tingly blush" as it
improves the peripheral circulation (blood vessels near the skin).
DOSAGE: 20 to 40 drops after meals. 80 drops or more, per day, to improve peripheral
circulation.
160
HOREHOUND
Marrubium vuteare
PROPERTIES AND USES: Coughs, fevers, obstructed

menstruation, baffling disorders, red spots under skin.
COMMON NAMES: White Hound, White Hoarhound,

Hoarhound.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Horehound is the no-nonsense

candy of the pioneers and adventurers that settled the North
American Continent; and when you taste it, you will get an
idea of what they were like to consider this herb as a candy.
It is a bitter mint and an immediate remedy for sore throat,
coughs and colds. Its taste is very distinctive, aromatic and medicinal. Whenever heavy, dry,
disgusting mucus must be discharged from lungs and respiratory passages, Horehound is the
botanical herb of choice, safe, reliable, and effective. It can also be rubbed on the chest and
back, then cover up and sweat out the cold and or fever. Take for obstructed menstruation,
suppressed urine, stomachache, wasting away disorders, anxiety, trouble breathing, pain, and
to improve circulation and banish red spots under the skin.
DOSAGE: 40 drops after meals, or as often as needed in respiratory problems. Externally,

use enough to cover the skin of the chest and back area, as needed, and cover up warmly.
Apply to the skin where red spots occur, three to four times per day.
HORSETAIL
Equisetum arvense
PROPERTIES AND USES: Kidneys, blood

pressure, skin problems, elasticity of tissue,
drive out heavy metals, contains M.S.M.
(Menthyl Sulfonyl Methane) for joint problems.
COMMON NAMES: Scourbrush, Nerve Root,

American Valerian, Shave grass.
PARTS USED: The plant.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Horsetail, also known as

Shavegrass, bears the reputation of "surgeon
without a knife."When rolled between the fingers,
the stems of the plant reveal its true nature of
containing silicon, the same material, which makes
sand and crystals strong and resilient. This natural
161
crystalline structure not only supports the body and gives it a smooth finish, but acts as an
internal surgeon to shave away unworthy tissues and slough them off. The body structure
thus renewed has greater integrity and elasticity. At the rate of 40 drops per day, a smooth
finish is given to the skin much like the surface of an apple, and provides the skin you love to
touch. Nerves become very resilient, nails flexible and tough and hair becomes "silky" as is
noted when rolled between the fingers. Allow up to four months or more of patience to see
these changes. Horsetail is a slow moving herb when it comes to producing these effects but
once it becomes part of these structures, you really have something you can count on. A
maintenance amount then of 10 to 20 drops per day can maintain these desirable benefits.
American Indian use for kidneys and fluid retention is well documented. Here 40 drops three
times per day are recommended. The ingestion of Horsetail at the rate of 40 drops three times
per day allows the body to cast out impurities of all kinds, including heavy metals and other
pollutants through the bowel, urine, skin and nails and lungs. Horsetail is also known to
restore joints and repair elastic tissue.
GENERAL NOTE: If through the continued use of Horsetail over a period of several
1
months or years Mercury amalgam fillings drop out of the teeth, be glad you are free of this
deadly poison. Replace with gold or inert
plastics. In the study of the eye, called Iridology,
when discolored rings occur around the outer 1 411
edge of the blue or brown part of the eye(s), it is iiikfr‘
called a scurf rim. This is an indication of body
1
pollution, which has settled in the skin area and
lot
can be cleansed effectively by Horsetail, if
further contact with pollutants are avoided.
Wear natural fiber underclothes and clothing.
Horsetail also cleans out lead poisoning.
Horsetail strengthens the lenses of the eyes and
their other structures when taken internally.

medicine experience indicates your choice of

herbs for bleeding from the stomach or the intestinal tract to be that of Horsetail. It also
contain M.S.M (Methyl Sulfonyl Methane) to remedy joint problems.
DOSAGE: 40 drops per day for skin and hair and nails. 40 drops three times per day for
more involved conditions.
HYDRANGEA
Hydrangea arborescens
PROPERTIES AND USES: Fluid retention, diuretic, kidneys and urinary system, dissolves
stones, lower back pain.
COMMON NAMES: Seven Barks, Wild Hydrangea.
PARTS USED: Root.
162
BODILY INFLUENCES: (Hi'-dran-gee-uh) Is known by many herbalists, as an old friend,

trusted and tried, for the kidneys and bladder. This friendship also extends to the urethra
(u'-reath-ruh), the tube leading from the
bladder, which exits the body. Hydrangea also
cares for the ureters (u'reet-ers), two tubes,
one from each kidney, connecting the kidneys
to the bladder. Excess fluid build up, known
as dropsy, or as it is more modernly called,
edema (ed'-deem-muh), is relieved by
Hydrangea root. Think of Hydrangea for
lower back pain, when due to kidney distress,
including inflamed kidney tissue. Hydrangea
has earned its reputation of being a friend in
need when gravel or stones are being passed,
to ease the passage and relieve the agony. If
this is the case then take one tablespoon, at
once, when in distress and repeat as needed.
Combines well with Marshmallow, See: Marshmallow. If prone to stones and prevention of
stones is a concern, then a maintenance amount of 40 drops per day is a good idea.
DOSAGE: 40 drops three times per day and as given above. To gradually dissolve stones,
one teaspoonful three times per day with a full glass of mineral or other trusted water.
HYSSOP
Hyssopus officinalis L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Expel gas, tonic, expels

mucous, stimulant, reduce high blood pressure.
COMMON NAMES: Hyssop.
PARTS USED: Tops and leaves.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Hyssop is a biblical herb.

In the Old Testament Psalms 51:7 recommends the
use of Hyssop to clean
and purify the body. '7e; 1
More modern use -
elaborates on the
property of Hyssop as a
regulator of blood
pressure, the reducer of
high blood pressure as well as increased circulation. Hyssop
Hyssop -Hyssopus officinalis L
lubricates internal tissue fluids and sweeps away debris to
prepare clean surfaces for absorption and elimination, thus,
Hyssop is a hygienic herb. Through this action, surfaces of
lungs, stomach, blood vessels and all vital body parts are cleaned internally. Hyssop provides
one of the most basic approaches that can be taken to restore system functions.
163
DOSAGE: 20 to 40 drops one to two times per day.
INDIAN TOBACCO (LOBELIA)
Lobelia inflata
PROPERTIES AND USES: Specific

for asthma, powerful nervine, cramped
muscles, "Charlie horse," abdominal
cramping, antispasmodic, nervous
agitation.
COMMON NAMES: Lobelia, Puke

Weed, Emetic Herb, Emetic Weed,
Asthma Weed, Gagroot.
PARTS USED: Herb and seeds.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Indian

Tobacco is perhaps the most serviceable, responsible and reliable herb of the herbal kingdom.
It is a wonderful systems (regulator), and as Dr. John Christopher remarked it is one of the
"thinking" herbs. It has the power to coordinate, direct and assist the use of other herbs or act
alone, which makes it an herb of much leverage. Its usefulness has encouraged much
jealously from the physicians of lesser ability. Doctors who did not recognize its true
properties branded it as poisonous. In active practice, it is seen that the extract under the
tongue will, within seconds or minutes (in severe cases),
stop spasms, convulsions, and asthmatic attacks. With
use, it easily directs itself and the other herbs to handle
the body's condition needing help first and the lesser
conditions next. It may also be rubbed on the chest and = -
spine when it cannot be taken by mouth. In those cases

where Indian Tobacco does empty the stomach, since it is
an antispasmodic, the emesis (throwing up) of putrid
material, does not even cause bruising. Indian Tobacco
will not act as an emetic (stomach pump) unless an emetic •'
is necessary, and then it will act strongly upon the putrid
stomach, to empty it without bruising. When rubbed
across the entire abdominal area, it will relieve any
associated, painful gas. Indian Tobacco is very helpful in
food poisoning. Indian Tobacco is an antagonist to
poison, whether animal or vegetable in origin. Indian
Tobacco is at once, both tranquilizing and energizing. Lobelia — Lobelia siphilitica
This is a peculiar concept, but experience has proven it to Photograph by Dr. Eugene C. Watkins
be true. For relief of menstrual cramping or relief of
"Charlie horse" (painful cramp in leg muscle) or any muscular cramping, apply liberally to
the area and quickly rub in. When externally applied, please use a good quality extract, not a
watery one for the action to be accomplished.
164
DOSAGE: One to twenty drops, one drop at a time on the tongue. (First brush a little
Peppermint Oil on the tongue if sensitive stomach). Externally, use as much as is required.
INKBERRY
Phytolacca decandra, L
PROPERTIES AND USES: Cancer disorders,

tumors and prevention, mercury poisoning and
mercury fillings (heavy metals).
COMMON NAMES: Poke Root, Redweed,
Red Ink Plant (the berries), Garget, Pigeon
Berry, Scoke, Skoke, Virginia Poke, Pocan
Bush, Cancer Jalap, American Nightshade,
Red Ink Berries, Coakum.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The name Inkberry

derives from the practice of using the juice from
the berries of this plant as a ready made natural
ink for writing letters home during the U.S. War
Between The States when supplies or regular
ink were short. The root of this herb has the
particular ability to excite the entire glandular
system to expel mercury. It has achieved distinction in the battle to dissolve cancers and
tumors. It is taken by Native Americans to prevent and dissolve cancers and tumors. When
using Inkberry keep the bowels open with a natural bowel cleaner, such as Cascara Sagrada
or Buckthorn or Combination C.C.E.-W, otherwise, you may experience some nausea or
discomfort as the Inkberry dissolves the cancer or tumor. Use a bowel cleaner in sufficient
quantities to produce at least two, preferably three, bowel movements or more per day.
Usually the "sick" feeling clears up within ten minutes after the bowel movement. This good
habit of cleaning, and keeping the bowel this clean, may be continued for as long as a person
wishes to enjoy good health.
DOSAGE: For daily maintenance as a prevention of cancers or tumors, 10 to 20 drops. If
dissolving a cancer or tumor, 40 to 80 drops two to three times per day.
IRISH MOSS
Chondrus crispus
PROPERTIES AND USES: Connective tissue repair, bowel softener, soother and bulk
exerciser, cold extremities, iodine, magnesium, vital trace element.
COMMON NAMES: Carra green, Carra green Moss, Carragheen Moss, Pearl Moss, Salt
Rock Moss.
165
BODILY INFLUENCES: This is not a moss, and it is not from Ireland. It is a valuable sea
vegetable (not sea weed). Its fresh appearance is like that of a small natural sponge and a
delicate sea green in color. Some of the worlds finest Irish Moss comes from the cold,
northern Island Province of Prince Edward Island, Canada. Irish Moss is prized for its rich
supply of essential minerals, especially magnesium and vital trace elements, as well as its
dependable knack of rebuilding connective tissue in the body. Where joints and cartilage are
turning stiff or inflexible, Irish Moss is the answer. The fluid binding power of this plant is
well known. It can absorb 30 parts of water for every one part of itself. A person can see, at
once, why it is used to moisturize the body internally and promote a youthful appearance. It
should be noted here, as well, that Irish Moss is also lubricating to the bowel and its rich
supply of magnesium is also laxative in its action on the large intestine. These properties all
work together to maintain natural regularity. Cellulite (dehydration of skin cells with scar
tissue formation) cannot coexist or occur when Irish Moss is used. All irritated passages and
internal surfaces are coated and protected by Irish Moss.
DOSAGE: 40 drops after meals. In severe cases, one teaspoonful after meals.
JASON WINTER'S TEA SEE: RED CLOVER BLEND
JERUSALEM ARTICHOKE
Helianthus tube rosus
PROPERTIES AND USES: Diabetes,

enzyme boost.
COMMON NAMES: Earth Apple,

Girasole.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: These are

actually the tubers, or "potatoes," on the
roots of tall growing, small, yellow
flowered, wild sunflowers. They require no
insulin hormone, from the pancreas, for their digestion, and, as such, are a safe source of
carbohydrate for use by diabetics or those suffering from low blood sugar. This sunflower is
probably one of the most competitive, successful plants in nature. Once you get a start of the
plant in your garden, it spreads from its roots with great determination and is hard to kill. An
excellent source of food for all. One of its primary virtues is a very active enzyme system.
The digestive body processes receive a direct and immediate boost. You do not have to be
diabetic to use this food from the roots of the wild sunflower.
DOSAGE: 40 drops after each meal. In more serious cases, one teaspoonful after meals.
166
JEWEL WEED
Impatiens pallida
PROPERTIES AND USES: Poison

ivy, poison oak, skin care.
COMMON NAMES: Quick-in-the-

sand, Slippers, Snap Weed, Pale Touch-
me-not, Slipper Weed, Balsam Weed,
Weathercock, Touch-me-not.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Is also

known as wild impatiens or "Touch-Me-
Not" plant. It owes these names, in part,
to its attractive and unusually attached
flowers (hanging from the plant by their
sides to form a perch) which mature into
a seed pod, which silently, but literally,
explodes when touched or brushed up
against, scattering its seeds for the next generation. Jewel Weed is listed in the Boy Scout's
survival manual to counteract the torments of poison ivy. The Jewel Weed stem is picked,
crushed, and the slippery, slightly sticky sap is
then applied to the area of poison ivy contact.
The effect is rapid in relieving the irritating )0'
torment and itching. Luckily, Jewel Weed
usually grows near the poison ivy plant. This
kind of solution is often found in Nature. That is
to say, the solution to your problem is probably
growing near where you live, if you will allow
the wild plants to grow. Jewel Weed is also
highly prized as a skin care herb to moisturize
and tone the skin and protect it from irritation.
For this purpose, Jewel Weed is applied on a
regular basis after cleansing. Internally, Jewel Jewel Weed — Impatiens camenis
Weed functions to flush kidneys and bladder Photograph by Barbara Jacobs
and acts as a diuretic to remove excess fluid

accumulation. If the stomach must be emptied, then take one tablespoonful, all at once.
DOSAGE: To flush kidneys and bladder, 40 to 80 drops three times per day with a large
glass of water. If stubborn problem, then 40 drops hourly, while awake, with a cup of water
until well. Externally and other uses as given above.
167
JUNIPER BERRIES
Juniperus communis, L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Dissolve uric

acid, acids, gout, digestaid, kidneys and
urinary system antibiotic, build immunity
systems.
COMMON NAMES: Juniper Bush,

Juniper Bark.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Take if working

among the sick. Builds immunity. Dissolves
uric acid crystals, which can cause kidney
stones, gout and rheumatic (joint) discomfort.
Test for uric acid crystals by squeezing back of upper arm, if painful, uric acid crystals are
abundant. Good digestaid. Prevent and expel gas. Juniper Berries, is a powerful antibiotic for
the entire urinary system, including the kidneys, the ureters, (tubes leading from the kidneys
to the bladder), the bladder itself, and the urethra (tube leading from the bladder to the exit).
For a kidney flush, take 40 drops and a large glass of water (in this way, Juniper Berries can
work without causing irritation) three times per day. Diuretic for correcting fluid retention.
Raise low blood sugar and stabilize at normal level. Apply externally to kill fungus.
DOSAGE: For most purposes, 10 to 40 drops following meals. If urinary tract infection or
joint discomfort, 80 drops to one teaspoonful three times per day with a large glass of water
until well. Also make sure the bowels do their duty at the rate of two to three times per day.
NOTE: Protein must be taken with each meal in order for Juniper Berries to work to stabilize
blood sugar.
KELP
Fucus versiculosus or Ascophyllium nodosum (you choose)
PROPERTIES AND USES: Energy, hair, stress, calcium source, magnesium source,
potassium source, vital trace elements, weight reduction, add to animal food to prevent
frequent veterinary visits.
COMMON NAMES: Sea Wrack, Bladder Fucus, Seaweed, Sea Oak, Kelpware, Black
Tany.
PARTS USED: Leaves.
BODILY INFLUENCES: This valuable sea vegetable, growing as tall as 100 feet
(approximately 30 meters) up from under the water, supported by balloon like gas bladders,
can be put to the same uses as Irish Moss (see: Irish Moss). Hands and feet that stay cold year
168
around, hands that tremble when they are extended and the fingers are spread, "thick neck"
(the base of the neck is swollen due to an enlarged thyroid gland), unusual fears, not wanting
to wear tight fitting clothes around the neck, weak or brittle nail and hair growth, easy weight
gain; any, or all of these, are indications of needing food for the thyroid gland. Kelp differs,
however, in generally containing more iodine salts and is therefore, more aggressive in its
support of thyroid function. A person should use smaller amounts in the beginning to become
accustomed to its stimulating effects. Kelp is known as an excellent storehouse of other
minerals, including an impressive amount of calcium and magnesium, as well as vital trace
elements. Kelp is considered a must by many natural practitioners as part of the diet, when
dieting, to prevent mineral depletion due to reduced food intake. Kelp increases the
metabolism of the body to burn calories more rapidly. This is quite important in people that
tend to gain weight very easily. Kelp is also highly valued as a diuretic if excess fluid build-
up.
DOSAGE: 10 to 20 to 40 drops per meal or three times per day. This amount can be doubled
if the hands and or feet do not warm up.

elevated to sainthood lightly by herbalists.
Photograph by Barbara Jacobs But this one is and bears the name of a Saint.
Those who craved, in desperation, the
intervention of a Saint to ease their sufferings, found it in this plant. Hence, its true name,
St. John's Wort. Wort is an old English name for plants. Bell's Palsy can strike swiftly. When
Bell's Palsy strikes (Inflammation of the trigeminal, try'-gem-a-nul, nerve), one side of the
face may become paralyzed and the face horribly distorted. Often, the eye may have to be
taped shut to avoid it drying out and an ulcer forming on the eye. A person could easily
experience terror upon seeing their face in the mirror in such a state. Sometimes this paralysis
is permanent if help is not given. St. John's Wort renders its mercy to the sufferer.
St. John's Wort is the most used remedy in Europe for depression and anxiety attacks.
169
Internally, 40 drops 4 times per day. For those with very sensitive skin, apply first, very
gently, Vitamin E oil from 100 or 400 i.u. capsules to the same area. Then, apply very gently
so as not to further irritate the face nerves, St. John's Wort to both sides of the face from the
ear over the entire area out to the tip of the nose. Apply 10 to 20 drops to both sides of the
face several times per day and additionally, any
time the face starts to hurt. Relief follows swiftly.
Do not get in the eye. Additionally, St. John's
Wort is a blessing of great magnitude for the .
following conditions: bed wetting, pain in the

coccyx, (cock'-siks or tailbone), nerve problems of
all sorts including: neuralgia (burning nerves), 111
"shaking sickness," tics and tremors, concussions

regulate the period, strains and sprains, lower back
pain, worms, mucus congesting the head, and
diarrhea. As an aside, when farm animals develop
"white spots," which become sensitive to light, sore with eruptions, put them in a dark place
out of the sun and paint the affected area with Vitamin E oil from 100 or 400 i.u. capsules
and then apply a diluted solution of 10 drops of St John's Wort to one cup of water three
times per day. The animal will recover swiftly. Be kind when you do this, and speak
reassuringly to the animal.
DOSAGE: 20 to 40 drops three times per day. For external use, apply generously, three to
four times per day. Proceed with Vitamin E oil from 100 or 400 i.u. capsules if very sensitive
skin. 20 to 40 drops per day, after meals to maintain strong, steady nerves. If "Bells Palsy" is
a problem, then also take 80 drops of Rice Bran three times per day internally; very gently
apply Arnica hourly, to remove the physical trauma, the Herbal Adjustment to improve
circulation to the area. Avoid contact with eyes.

PROPERTIES AND USES: External and

internal damage to body, contact corrective,
grows healthy new cells rapidly, nutritive,
valuable source of organic Calcium. Corrects
Poison Ivy and Poison Oak.
COMMON NAMES: Comfrey, Knitback

Bruisewort, Healing Herb, Slippery Root.
PARTS USED: Roots and leaves.
170
BODILY INFLUENCES: Old bones, broken bones, old flesh and damaged flesh are
replaced with new by virtue of the fact that Knitbone feeds only the best body cells and
encourages thorough, rapid growth of healthy new cells, hence its title of "cellular
proliferant." Healing is swift when taken in sufficient quantity. It is high in protein and is easily
digested for any bodily repair. Knitbone is a most remarkable healer and has proven itself
effective in the regeneration of nerve and brain tissues and all other soft tissues and bones.
Hence its common name, Knitbone. May be taken in large quantities as it is a nutritive, a
food especially good for delicate digestive systems. Its chief healing ingredient (allantoin) is very
soothing to any irritation, internal or external. It as well as Rose Hip is indeed body glue to
prevent and correct wrinkling and aging. Enjoy it and live well.
NOTE: (Comfrey) Fear not. Over the years, just about every herb we hold dear, to get our
selves well, has been attacked by "scientists with 20/20 rifle barrel vision." They have
attacked Apples, Alfalfa, Apricots, Borage, Capsicum, Chamomile, Coltsfoot, Gravel Root,
Licorice Root, Lobelia, Sassafras and now even Comfrey, the gentlest and most comforting
of herbs and seek to instill us with fear and self-doubt. Even some herbalists, who should
know better, got on the bandwagon. They say Comfrey has a "deadly poison" in it called
pyrrolizidine alkaloids. If indeed pyrrolizidine alkaloids do occur in healthy Comfrey plants
grown in healthy organic soil, then they are most assuredly antibiotics rendered harmless to us
and guided by the dependable natural governing wisdom of the miracle that is Comfrey. All
Antibiotics are poisons. That is what the name means, anti (against) biotic (life). An
antibiotic kills the things that try to kill us. Beware of those who seek to separate us from our
trust and belief in the Creator, and what has been given to us and take the Creator's place.
"Scientists" can prove anything if they get the right test subjects, plants from sick soil, and set
the experiment up just right and not give any of the other herbs that might help Comfrey do its
job. The only qualified people to say if Comfrey is good for you are the practitioners who give
it and the people who take it and get well in record time. If "scientists" truly want to learn
about herbs then they should approach the subject by learning to use them, with respect, an
open mind and gratitude for what the Creator has given us. Then their "scientific proof' will
look much different.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops as needed with meals or externally as needed. If Poison Ivy or Poison
Oak, apply externally as needed.
KOREAN GINSENG
Panax Schinseng Korea
PROPERTIES AND USES: Glandular nourishment, build immunity, viral infections
(including AIDS), oxygenation, germanium source.
COMMON NAMES: Asiatic Ginseng, Ginseng, Chinese Ginseng, Wonder-of-the-World.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Panax Schinseng is from Asia. It has been applauded through
the centuries as one of the magic elixirs of life for stamina, well-being and longevity. Its
praises and reputation are legendary, real and earned. As a glandular food, the glands of the
body are nourished. It is a fact that a person could say, if the glands of the body do well, so
171
does the body. The older the root the better. Millions of people in China, both men and
women, have sung the praises of Ginseng for millennia for counteracting stress, for building
stamina, and a multitude of different and wide-ranging problems. Ginseng has been used,
successfully, for conditions as different as rheumatoid arthritis, AIDS, allergies, high
cholesterol, candida yeast infections, cancer and viral infections. Modern investigative
techniques have revealed one of the possible reasons why Ginseng can do this. Ginseng
contains a reliable source of the rare, and much sought after trace element of Germanium.
Germanium acts by attaching itself with the available oxygen in the body to increase and
normalize cellular and tissue oxygenation. In this way, "the breath of life" can circulate
throughout the body, poisons are neutralized, immunity increased and tissues regenerated.
Dis-ease conditions are reversed and prevented. Take every day for its accumulating, life-
giving benefits and one day others will marvel at your stamina and well-being. Obtain
Ginseng from a reputable supplier, pay for the best, get it and enjoy it. Ginseng is a proven
fact. (See: also True American Ginseng).
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops per meal or three times per day.
KUDZU ROOT
Pueraria lobata
PROPERTIES AND USES: Break alcohol addiction.
COMMON NAMES: Kudzu.
Kudzu — Pueraria lobata PARTS USED: Root.

' BODILY INFLUENCES: Is a hardy, invasive, aggressive,

climbing vine from Japan. Its single most appreciated property in the West is its use to break
alcohol addiction.
DOSAGE: 40 drops any time alcohol is craved.
LADY'S SLIPPER
Cypripedium pubescens
PROPERTIES AND USES: Excellent

nervine, anti-spasmodic, epilepsy, migraines,
blood pressure, regulates brain stem.
COMMON NAMES: Nerve Root, Moccasin

Plant, Yellow Root.
PARTS USED: Rhizomes (underground

stems) and roots.
BODILY INFLUENCES: This orchid of the
172
deep, North American forest is remarkable for its delicate, showy, waxy, yellow moccasin-
shape flower. This true orchid is a savior of the exhausted nervous system and produces a
quick calming response in the nerve centers
of the brain. Despite its quick activity, it ° rn
is not narcotic. It acts rapidly to relieve
the worst of migraines and restores a calm
outlook. Users recommend it in epilepsy
to restore function of balance centers in
the brain. It is also recommended for the
medulla oblongata (brain stalk), which
controls the functions of breathing,
heartbeat and blood pressure. Its entire
energy is granted to the nervous system.
Lady's Slipper can be rubbed on the back of
the neck to calm a nervous heart, "irritable
coughing" and hiccupping.
DOSAGE: 10 to 40 drops three times per

day internally. Rub on back of neck, spine and temples as needed if migraine headache, also
take 40 drops or more internally.
LAPACHO
Tabebuia altissima,
,ort,
Tabebuia avellanedae
PROPERTIES AND USES: Cancer and

cancer preventative (in South America),
repairs genetic disorders.
COMMON NAMES: Pau d' arco,

4 Taheebo, Ipe roxo, Tecoma.
PARTS USED: The inner bark.

Lapacho relative

BODILY INFLUENCES: Experienced
herbalists consider that both the Tabebuia
altissima (purple flowered) and Tabebuia
avellanedae (red flowered) varieties should be mixed together for the best possible effects.
South American medical doctors proclaim nothing short of miracles for quick relief of pain
for cancers of all types as well as their cure within one month in many cases. Once again,
South American Indians made known a tree which they have used for thousands of years to
cure their people. The first was the Cinchona tree bark which yields quinine and cures
malaria. Lapacho taken as a boiled tea three times per day (one heaping teaspoonful of the
bark to make one cup of the tea) is reported to be their method. The extract is possibly many
times stronger if made properly. The chemistry of Lapacho is quite well known to the
scientific world. Dr. Frederick Koch, M.D., used substances from the tree bark called quinine
during the 1930's in Detroit, Michigan, with astonishing results to cure even advanced cancer
cases before going to South America in order to continue his practice. He especially used a
173
single quinine, which he described as oxidizing or burning up the encapsulated pockets of

stagnant cancer-causing points. He reports in this

LECITHIN
PROPERTIES AND USES: Dissolves cholesterol and fats, dissolves fat deposits around
eyes and throughout body, cleans arteries and veins, repairs kidneys, insulates brain and
nerve, brain and nerve cells talk together better, restores reproductive fluids.
COMMON NAMES: Lecithin.
PARTS USED: Whole Plant.
BODILY INFLUENCES:LECITHIN (less'-uh-thin) is needed so the body can work.

A healthy normal liver with a good diet naturally makes LECITHIN. Lecithin is a sticky
yet slippery liquid that looks and feels like a cross between a medium heavy oil and a
non-sweet syrup. LECITHIN dissolves fat into very tiny drops. It also dissolves
cholesterol into very tiny drops. Then the body uses the fat and cholesterol as food and
to make hormones. Yes, LECITHIN also dissolves cholesterol into very tiny droplets.
This is wonderful because then the cholesterol does not build up into harmful, clogging
deposits in the arteries and veins and other areas. Put simply, if you have no LECITHIN,
no usable cholesterol and no digestible fats then you have no hormones. People must not
have enough LECITHIN these days because so many people have too much un-dissolved
cholesterol and run out of hormones far too soon. Either their liver is not working right
or their diet is lacking in enough digestible Vitamin B complex vitamins, or both things
are happening. LECITHIN is not dangerous. It is a nutrient made by the liver from
basically two of the B complex vitamins and other very common ingredients. LECITHIN
is also vital to coat and insulate the nerves and brain and keep them from "shorting out."
174
Lecithin is the basis for a fluid that helps the brain and nerve cells to talk to each other.
LECITHIN is needed by every tiny living cell in the body as part of the covering around
the cell. It keeps the cell coverings (membranes) soft and able to use fats and cholesterol.
The liver and gall bladder demand LECITHIN. It keeps them from being congested and it
decongests them. The reproductive fluids of the body are made up of LECITHIN to a
great extent. The filters in our kidneys use LECITHIN as a coating to prevent irritation
and stay in good repair. It's probably safe to say, science will one day discover many
other vital functions which LECITHIN performs.
DOSAGE: Two or more capsules of LECITHIN, derived from soybeans, per day or as
advised by your doctor or natural health care provider as a dietary supplement derived
from soybeans.
CHILD DOSAGE: One or more capsules of LECITHIN, derived from soybeans,

per day or as advised by your doctor or natural health care provider as a dietary
supplement derived from soybeans.
LEMON GRASS
Andropogon citratum
PROPERTIES AND USES: Calms nerves, longevity,

antibiotic.
COMMON NAMES: Verbena Grass.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Has a reputation of being

associated with longevity, possibly due to its
demonstrated antibiotic properties and calming effect
on the nervous system.
DOSAGE: 40 drops as needed or 40 drops daily as a
maintenance.
LICORICE ROOT
Givcvrrhiza glabra, L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Specific for low blood

sugar, ulcers, coughs, stress, allergies, stamina,
magnesium source, sweetener.
COMMON NAMES: Sweetwood, Suessholz,
Bois de-Reglisse-doux.
PARTS USED: Dried root.
175
BODILY INFLUENCES: Licorice Root is sweet, somewhere between 4 to 50 times

sweeter than cane sugar without the calories and does not increase thirst. Licorice Root can
be so sweet, it has a bitter taste unless diluted. It is a
specific for low blood sugar symptoms. If a person is not
feeling up to par and has a habit of eating white flour
products or sugar products, it is safe to assume they would
benefit by Licorice Root. Powdered Licorice held on the
tongue and allowed to dissolve coats the throat to relieve
sore throat. The Egyptians, Greeks and Romans used
Licorice to combat the ravages of stress. When battle troops
in the quest to conquer the world experienced stress this
was their mainstay. People today also experience stress.
Licorice Root is a remedy for stress, be it from interpersonal
relationships, allergies, or lack of energy. Licorice Root
feeds the energy and hormone manufacturing glands known Licorice Root - Glycyrrhiza glabra, L
as the adrenals. As such, they are able to bring the entire
system into better balance and promote well-being. When
the need occurs for hormones, for either the male or female
system, Licorice provides the building blocks for the adrenals to make these hormones. This
is especially efficacious for women who have had a hysterectomy, to prevent the discomforts
of hormone imbalance.
DOSAGE: 10 to 40 drops three to four times per day under the tongue or on food as a
sweetener.
LIFE EVERLASTING SEE: CUDWEED
LILY OF THE VALLEY & BLESSED THISTLE
Convallaria majalis & Centauria benedicta
PROPERTIES AND USES: Angina pectoris

(chest pain due to heart), heart valve repair, heart repair,
circulatory correction, varicose veins, fluid retention,
dyspnoea (difficult breathing), antispasmodic.
PARTS USED: The whole herb.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Nature has provided us a

wondrous, miraculous remedy for the deterioration of
heart muscle, heart valves, heart pain in chest, heart pain
in left arm and stagnant blood in the veins, delivers
oxygen to oxygen-starved heart and brain, repairs blood
vessels, improves memory. When lilacs bloom, look also
for the perfumed scent of Lily of the Valley. The
delightfully perfumed little white bells herald the presence of the heart's friend. The most
active part is the root. Herein reside the glycosides that correct acute heart failure, cardiac
edema, heart valve insufficiencies and dilation of the heart chambers. Small arteries that feed
176
the heart itself are

. . assisted
. in their circulation to
. prevent and correct coronary infarction
(cramped heart blood vessels, usually tatal). A powertul
effect is exerted on the pumping chambers of the heart
making it beat slower and giving it more force. 5 to 40
drops on the back of the tongue will stop chest pain '
more or less instantly without the possible side effects
of Digitalis (Foxglove). There is no harmful buildup in
the blood stream as it is not stored for more than a few
hours. The leaves and flowers also show some activity
but are not as strong. Jesus of Nazareth made reference -ak-11
11 ■:.
to Lilies of the Valley and was aware of their splendid Blessed Thistle - Centaurea sp.
presence when he pronounced them more beautiful than Photograph by Dr. Eugene C. Watkins
Solomon in all his glory. We are indeed grateful to this

day for that recognition and their potential to help the heart.
NOTE: Other practitioners have been frightened of this little lily because of its similar
function to Foxglove, but herbal practice has not supported their fears to be warranted. As
with any herb, however, if you feel you have noticed consistent unpleasantness to an herb,
either lower the dose or discontinue its use.
COMBINATION: Lily-of-the-Valley, Blessed Thistle.
DOSAGE: 10 to 40 drops per meal, or three times per day. If chest pains, then 40 drops at
once.
LINDEN FLOWERS
Tilia americana
PROPERTIES AND USES: Remedy for the nerves.
COMMON NAMES: American Basswood,

American Linden, Lime Tree, Spoonwood,
Bast Tree, Tilia Flowers, Whitewood, Wuckopy.
Linden Flowers - Tilia americana

BODILY INFLUENCES: Is from trees related to the
same kind of tree which produces the lime fruit so
widely used in beverages and as flavorings. The flowers of this tree produce a tea and an
excellent extract that are, at once, soothing to irritated nerves and conditions of restlessness.
Much loved and appreciated throughout Germany, where it is known and enjoyed as
Lindenblueten Tee. In France, it is known as tilleule. Its use proved to be so inspirational to
the renowned French author Marcel Proust, that he wrote his famous work "A la recherche du
temps perdu" (The Search For Lost Time). The Linden tree and its flowers have been
admired and known to herbalists since early Greek and Roman times, as an old and friendly,
familiar and trusted remedy for the nerves.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops 3 to 4 times per day, as needed.
177
LOBELIA SEE: INDIAN TOBACCO
MACA
Lepidum mayenil
PROPERTIES AND USES: Nourishes the glandular control bridge of the brain (pituitary-
hypothalamus-pineal-complex) and encourages it to work properly, ovaries, testes, adrenals,
pancreas, thyroid, thymus etc., and they begin producing their hormones again, suffering of
menopause, sugar craving and depression during and after menopause, fertility is increased
and sexual function is strengthened, more youthful skin, improved sexual desire, normalizing
vaginal lubrication and improved emotional balance. For both men and women: Energy and
stamina, anemia, build immunity and improve memory. Can also be used for animals.
COMMON NAMES: Maca.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: This herbal gift comes to us from the native people high in the
Andes Mountains of Peru, South America. It is used both as a food and a medicine. When
you live at such great heights in a harsh and challenging environment, you look for anything
you can to help develop the stamina to survive. The herb Maca figures prominently in the
ability to master this struggle. Maca is a hardy survivor of harsh growing conditions and
makes its home at heights between 9,000 to 14,500 feet. This is an area where the direct
rays of the sun can hit plants (and people) without having been filtered through a cloud
first. Where Maca is at home, many people would be clawing for a decent breath of air when
they just try to move around. Thin, rocky soils dominate the landscape and fierce winds with
biting cold can whip up out of nowhere. No other cultivated plant grows as high up as Maca.
Maca has the ability to survive here where other plants perish. Perhaps for this reason, the
native peoples of Peru who live there, turned to this hardy member of the Nightshade Family
of plants (familiar relatives are the potato, tomato, egg plant and tobacco) to find that it helps
them survive as well. The Maca plant lies on the ground and looks a little like a flat-growing
potato plant. It has ivory colored flowers and tubers (underground storage roots) resembling
an upside down pear. This storage root is the part, which is used after boiling it for five to
six hours, to harness its positive properties. Maca's mature taste can be described as
something like the taste of peanut brittle without the peanuts in it, or a type of bee pollen.
When we consider all the things Maca is traditionally relied upon to do, the best guess in
figuring out how Maca works is that it nourishes the glandular control bridge of the brain
(pituitary-hypothalamus-pineal-complex) and encourages it to work properly. This control
bridge then coordinates and encourages the function of all the other glands below the head.
This action includes the glands of the body such as the ovaries, testes, adrenals, pancreas,
thyroid, thymus etc., and they begin producing their hormones again. This is a far different
approach than orthodox medicine's practice of dumping finished chemical hormones into the
body, which may or may not be unbalanced, and cause the body's glands to shrivel and stop
any production of hormones that might be going on. We know that artificial chemical
hormones can be a problem. Maca has been used, according to archaeological evidence in
Peru, since probably 1600 years B.C. If there was any problem with it, we probably would
have found out about it by now. Many physicians of South America and Dr. Vianna Muller
178
of New York in the U.S., find Maca especially useful for women to relieve the torments
and suffering of menopause, sugar cravings and depression during and after menopause.
When Maca is given to men or animals, fertility is increased and sexual function is
strengthened. Yet when scientists examine Maca, they do not find it to contain hormones.
They do find it to contain a class of chemical compounds known as glucosinolates, or more
specifically, p-methoxybenzyl isothiocyantate. These compounds are often associated with
herbs known as aphrodisiacs. Peruvian folk medicine describes the use of Maca to be for the
following: for men and animals, increased fertility and increased sexual function. For women
during menopause to relieve hot flashes, correction of menstrual disorders, more youthful
skin, improved sexual desire, normalizing vaginal lubrication and improved emotional
balance. For both men and women: Energy and stamina, to correct anemia, to build immunity
and improve memory.
NOTE: Some cleaning may occur as the glands are nourished and coordinated and
encouraged to function again. If this occurs, then be sure to use Maca with a good bowel
management herb or herbs, to ensure at least two or more easy and complete bowel
movements per day. Feelings of "nausea" can be prevented in this way.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops daily. In severely debilitated cases one teaspoon three times
per day.
MALE FERN
Aspidium filix-mas
PROPERTIES AND USES: Worms

(tapeworm, roundworm, pinworm and
seatworm), tonic, vulnerary (healing).
COMMON NAMES: Male Shield Fern,
Bear's Paw Root, Sweet Break, Knotty Brake,
Shield Root.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: To rid the body

of those uninvited guests (parasites) who force
their attentions upon you and whose ruin is
better than their company. The Center For
Disease Control in Atlanta, Georgia, U.S.A., indicates according to extensive studies that one
North American in four suffers from one or more infectious parasites. The host (person) is
often unaware of this. He/She often has a wide range of seemingly baffling and unrelated
complaints that respond to nothing. Male Fern (European Male Fern is preferred), was a
closely guarded secret used to extract princely sums for royal owners of tapeworms. Today
the secret is known. It has been proven safe and effective for many types of parasites.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops three times per day, morning, noon, and night until results. Repeat
at six month intervals. Must be taken with a good laxative Senna or Cascara Sagrada or
179
combination C.C.E.-W (Cleansing-Corrective Extract-W) to ensure all is flushed down the

drain.
MANDRAKE SEE: MAYAPPLE
MARIGOLD SEE: CALENDULA
MARSHMALLOW
Althea officinalis
PROPERTIES AND USES: Reduces inflammation,

poison absorber, lubricant, repairer, coats and
lubricates kidney stones to slide them out.
COMMON NAMES: Mallards, Mauls, Sweetweed,

Cheese Plant, Mortification Root, Wymote, Althea.
PARTS USED: Root (has greater strength), leaves

and flowers.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The root of this plant is

the source of the original Marshmallow candy still
seen in supermarkets but no longer made from the
plant. Three virtues characterize Marshmallow's
corrective properties. The root is particularly rich as a source of Calcium, Oxygen, and Pectin
(jelling agent like that found under the peelings of apples). This
combination of virtues is tailor made for soothing inflammation in ,
any hollow organ, especially lungs, urinary system and

reproductive system as well as the food canal. Marshmallow in
'44
.. 2
these areas sticks to surfaces and absorbs mucous and poisons. It .
also serves as a lubricant. For anyone who suspects stones in the

kidney, it would be wise to take Marshmallow on a daily basis to
coat stones and allow them to slide easily out of the body instead
of the more usual excruciatingly painful experience. Anyone who
has left claw marks passing stones can easily confirm the need for
Marshmallow. Marshmallow is often used externally as a poultice
(pole'-.tiss) for gathered breasts or mastitis (see: 01' Number 11).
A poultice is an herb, usually moistened, wrapped in cloth and Marshmallow
applied to the body. Marshmallow has been used to great effect in Anhea officinalis
these conditions, colds, coughs, lung disorders, swollen glands, Photograph by
chronic constipation, swollen joints, kidney hemorrhages, Dr. Eugene C. Watkins
laryngitis, skin boils, vaginal irritation, psoriasis, bedsores, gum
boils, teething children, weak digestion, diarrhea and infections. The powdered root can be
sprinlcled into bedsores to rapidly heal them.
DOSAGE: 40 drops one to three times per day. If crisis, one teaspoon to one tablespoon
as needed internally.

MAYAPPLE
Podophyllum peltatum
PROPERTIES AND USES: Bowel cleaner-

regularity, cancer of the testicle, fevers, lazy
or polluted liver, cleans glands, tuberculosis
of lymph nodes, pin worms, lead poisoning,
venereal dis-ease problems, venereal warts.
COMMON NAMES: Mandrake, Hog Apple,

Wild Lemon, Racoon Berry, Yellow Berry,
Indian Apple, Duck's Foot, Ground Lemon.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: This deep woods and wayside umbrella shaped, Springtime
blooming plant, not quite knee high, is a familiar sight in
much of North America. The Mayapple root corrects the
following conditions: bilious troubles (liver-gallbladder
caused vomiting), dropsy (fluid retention), congestion of
the liver, constipation, torpid (lazy, polluted) liver, lead
poisoning, diarrhea, catarrhal (infected mucus congestion)
or malarial jaundice
(yellow skin),
N # — intermittent and
remittent fevers,

warts, scrofula
(swollen, infected lymphatics which can result in a variety
of tuberculosis of the lymph nodes or "filters"), typhoid
fever, prolapsed rectum (prolapsus am), uterine dis-eases,
pin worms, a specific for cancer of the testicle.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops three times per day. If cancer of the testicle, then open capsules of
100 or 400 i.0 (International Units, a measure of liquid vitamins) Vitamin E and apply to the
entire scrotum. Then apply Oil of Cajeput and Herbal Adjustment directly to the skin.
Finally, soak a single layer of cheesecloth or absorbent gauze with Mayapple Extract and
wrap this around the scrotum. Cover this with plastic sandwich wrap and a cloth and wear
with snug but not tight fitting under shorts. Leave on overnight. The next morning, remove
the application and discard. Wash the area and allow to dry. Then repeat the application for
the daytime. This is an around-the-clock, time-release corrective action. Persist until the
condition is corrected. Be sure to use with a good bowel program (see: Cascara Sagrada,
Buckthorn,. C.C.E.-W) to carry off the wastes to avoid skin irritation. This same procedure
can be followed for other body parts for the other conditions listed above, where practicable.
Apply Mayapple to venereal warts as needed.
181
MEADOWSWEET
Spiraea ulmaria
PROPERTIES AND USES: Blood thinner,

arthritis, fevers, pain relief, natural aspirin source,
headache.
COMMON NAMES: Queen of the Meadow,

Sweet Meadow, Meadow-wort, Meadow Queen,
Spirea, Pride of the Meadow.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Pain reliever. Natural "aspirin." This plant was studied by
German chemists to derive its acetyl-salicylic-acid (the chemical compound we call aspirin
today) for study so it could be produced cheaply and synthetically from coal tar. Then they
did just that. They kept part of Meadowsweet's Latin plant name, Spiraea ulmaria to create
the drug name "a- spirea -in" or aspirin. The problem is, as with any synthetic, there can
be side effects, which can harm the body. In this case, internal hemorrhage is one common
result. It is estimated that cheap, readily available chemical aspirin causes several thousand
deaths worldwide each year. This does not count any of the possible harmful drug
interactions with other medications. There are no accurate records kept. If there were,
general concern alone would probably cause it to be withdrawn from the market. With
natural "aspirin" you don't have to fear internal hemorrhage, as it has not been separated
from its naturally occurring compounds, also found in the plant, which regulate its activity.
For best results, take with two full glasses of water. Used to relieve pain and many other
complaints such as: colic (abdominal gas pains), respiratory problems, gout,
arthritis, water retention, rheumatism (sore joints), reducing fever, and correcting painful
urination.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops to one teaspoon after each meal and or when needed. Also apply
externally and liberally to affected parts, as needed.
MILK THISTLE SEED
Cnicus lanceolata
PROPERTIES AND USES: Reverse alcohol abuse,

clean and repair liver and gallbladder, oxygenation,
selenium source, to prevent "bad cells."
COMMON NAMES: Milk Thistle.
PARTS USED: Seed.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Is for the liver. This well defended, handsome, thistle member
of the Aster family is easily recognized by the characteristic mottled white areas in its
leaves where there is no pigment. The main healing force of Milk Thistle lies in its seed.
182
Milk Thistle seed has proven itself effective for fatty degeneration of the liver as well as
poisoning and congestion of the liver through many forms of abuse. Where protection,
detoxification and or regeneration of the liver, with a flushing effect on the gallbladder,
needed, the seeds of the Milk Thistle plant are a ready, willing and able herbal remedy.
DOSAGE: For maintenance of and protection of the liver, 40 drops per day. For correction
of conditions listed above, 40 to 80 drops three times per day. An equal amount can be
rubbed into the liver, as well, each time it is taken by mouth. Apply the Milk Thistle Seed
Extract over the area of the liver, under the ribs in front, from one side of the body to the
other. For more serious cases, also apply directly to the entire liver area: Vitamin E from
100 or 400 i.u. capsules, and Herbal Adj. (See: Herbal Adj.). Then prepare an application
of absorbent gauze or cheesecloth saturated with Olive Oil. Next prepare a second cloth in
the same manner, saturated with Milk Thistle Extract and place these two layers, first the
Olive Oil layer and next the Milk Thistle layer, over the liver area. Cover with plastic
sandwich wrap and leave in place overnight, each night until well. Do follow a bowel
management program, which will produce two, and preferably three, bowel movements per
day. (See: Cascara Sagrada, Buckthorn, C.C.E.-W). A person must be able to void the
disgusting wastes cleaned out of the liver, as Milk Thistle Seed does its job, to prevent
nausea.
MILKWEED ROOT
Asclepias syriaca, L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Softens gall stones,

apply externally to remove warts.
COMMON NAMES: Common Milkweed,

Common Silkweed, Silkweed, Silky Swallow Wort.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY
INFLUENCES: ,
Removes warts. Apply directly to the "Mother Wart" t p.

(the first one which appeared on the body), 4 times per 4r7
day, five drops at a time. When the "Mother Wart" leaves, toi

required. Prepare the skin to prevent irritation and
encourage the process, by applying and massaging into Photograph by Barbara Jacobs
the area, Vitamin E from 100 or 400 i.u. capsules

(i.u. International Unit, a measure of liquid vitamins). Soak two layers of absorbent gauze or
natural fiber cheese cloth with one half Milkweed Extract and one half Marshmallow Extract.
Lay this over the liver, and as a modern adaptation, cover with plastic sandwich wrap.

Finally, put a cloth wrap around the body to hold all in place. The packs are worn each night,
through the night, until the stones are passed.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops, three times per day internally. Use a good herbal bowel cleaner
such as Cascara Sagrada, C.C.E.-W Combination, or Buckthorn, at the rate of 40 to 80 drops
or, if necessary, up to one teaspoon or even one tablespoon each evening to keep the bowels
open and moving three or more times per day. If a rash should occur during the procedure of
gallstone removal, even though the bowels are moving three times or more per day, then rub
Black Cohosh or Virginia Snake Root (poison antidotes) into the troubled area, as needed.

Mugwort — Artemisia- absinthium BODILY INFLUENCES: An old-fashioned rub for
sore muscles on horses contains Mugwort, and it works
beautifully. You know what? It works just as well for
184
people. To stop motion sickness the sailor used Mugwort. One to two drops on the tongue
before flight or sailing and the problem is handled. Mugwort is also excellent to rub on
bumps, bruises and sprains. It has long been thought that Mugwort takes upon itself the
bitterness of human suffering and hence, absorbs our bitter residue (of nerve produced
poisons) to absolve us from our suffering. Indeed, modern investigative evidence does show
Mugwort to expel poisons from our body, warm the body and bring the gallbladder to
functioning again. Roundworms and tapeworms perish and are expelled by Mugwort. For
pink eye, place 10 to 20 drops of Mugwort in a half-cup of distilled water and use as an eye
bath for five minutes, three times during the day. For corns, apply Vitamin E oil from 100 or
400 unit capsules and then place a pad, wet with the extract, over the corn and cover this with
plastic wrap. Change morning and night. Wash the area and allow to dry and then replace
with a fresh dressing. The same for burns, as from x-rays, or otherwise. To bring a person out
of a cataleptic state (stay in a fixed position and no movement), apply to the back of the neck,
spine, temples, forehead and top of the head. Repeat as necessary. To expel worms irritating
the rectum, put one teaspoonful to one tablespoon of the extract in a cup of distilled water
and fill a one-cup baby syringe with the solution. Insert the lubricated syringe (lubricate the
insert with Vitamin E from 100 or 400 i.u. capsules) into the rectum and squeeze very slowly
so that all of the fluid is retained. This is called an injection and not an enema. In an enema
the water is expelled after flushing the colon. With the injection technique, relief is very
rapid. Mugwort is the herb of choice for somnambulism. This is a disorder where a person
does things and does not remember them. In advanced stages, sleepwalking can occur. Here,
a person may perform feats normally done while awake or even more extreme than when
awake, such as walking on the roof of a building. 40 to 80 drops, three times per day, may be
used in this case. Hydrocephalus, or "water on the brain," can occur from injuries (as in
childbirth or falls), infection (as with parasites, germs, viruses, fungus), tumors and
congestion. In this instance, Mugwort reaches the heights of its corrective purposes. Apply
Vitamin E from 100 or 400 i.u. capsules to the scalp, generously rub Mugwort into the scalp
and cover the head with a shower cap. Leave on overnight. This moisture and thermal barrier
will drive the herb into the area with a time-release action. The next morning, remove the
dressing, wash off the area and allow to dry out. Repeat the dressing for the daytime. If you
desire it to work more slowly, wait until evening for the next dressing. With this technique it
is vital that the person have at least three or more bowel movements per day. The offending
poisons being released can then go down the drain instead of up and out through the skin.
Yes, there may be drainage through any body opening as well, if the bowels and kidneys are
not kept open or are in a weakened condition. Therefore, it is a good idea to give the bowel
cleaning herbs and the kidneys, cleaning and supporting herbs, such as C.C.E.-W and
Comsilk Combination (see: C.C.E-W & Comsilk Combination) in conjunction with
Mugwort. When you find painful spots at the joints (a nerve control center), acupressure
points and muscles that cause other painful spots, the body's electrical system is upset. These
spots travel around the body, first one spot then another, then back to the same spot. Chase
them out of the body by continuing to apply Mugwort to each spot as it acts up. When you
need Mugwort, it is there and ready to function, a friend and comforter to all, if you will
allow it.
DOSAGE: For general purposes, 10 to 40 drops, one to three times per day, after meals. For
other uses and specific uses, see as given above.

MUG WORT & WORMSEED
Artemisia absinthium &

Chenopodium anthelminticum
A
Kill parasites, see: Mugwort,
Wormseed.
COMMON NAMES: Mugwort

(Wormwood), Green Ginger,
Absinth, Ajenjo, Old Women.
Wormseed American Wormseed,
Jesuit Tea, Jerusalem Oak
Chenopodium.
Wonnseed - Chenopodium anthelminticum

PARTS USED: Tops and leaves
Wormwood. Seeds and herb-
Wormseed.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Dr. Esch of Michigan State University, a world renowned

parasitologist has indicated the incidence of parasites is so widespread that if all solid objects
were to be swept away and leave only the associated parasites, the outline of buildings,
people, animals and plants could yet be seen. Parasites prey only on an undernourished and
waste-clogged system. When stagnant wastes occur due to improper bowel management
(that is less than one elimination per meal eaten during the day), dregs back up in the body
to any area available and provide the perfect breeding ground for pests. Mugwort and
Wormseed may be used to swiftly eliminate them and taken as a daily maintenance program,
prevent and halt their proliferation. Medical science has often been baffled by prolific,
bewildering and bizarre symptoms that do not fit in with any known diagnosis. When this
is the case, it would be safe to assume that the body is plagued by various parasites.
COMBINATION: Mugwort, Wormseed.
DOSAGE: For the elimination of worms, the herbalist, Alma Hutchens suggests the
following: To expel worms with more success, plan to give the remedy during a full moon,
as the tenants are more active at this time. Omit the evening meal, give the prescribed
dosage, and again in the morning before breakfast, followed by an herbal laxative, repeat for
three days to make sure the larva are expelled. 40 to 80 drops is the customary amount for
this action.
NOTE: Wormseed is especially good for hookworm. Mugwort has a special effect against
roundworm and tapeworm. Male Fern Root is used as a specific for tapeworm and is taken
with a good laxative such as Cascara Sagrada. Black Walnut Hull is used especially for
parasites outside the digestive tract.

MULLEIN
Verbascum thapus
PROPERTIES AND USES: Repairs connective

tissue, general repair, varicose veins, cartilage
repair, epilepsy — seizures, heart regulation and
repair, coughs, heart circulation, asthma, bronchitis,
smokers cough, lung repair, pain relief, menstrual
cramping, iron source, universal healer.
COMMON NAMES: Velvet Plant, White Mullein,

Verbasum Flowers, Woolen, Bullock's Lungwort,
Flannel Flower, Shepherd's Club, Hare Beard,
Hig Taber, Cow's Lungwort.
PARTS USED: Leaves.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Mullein is for the lungs,

lung hemorrhages, tissue repair and internal
irritations. This familiar tall, single-stemmed,
yellow flowering Mullein is seen flowering in the
second year of its life span. Mullein can grow as
high as six feet. The flowering spike at the top of the plant carries numerous, small, simple,
soft, yellow flowers. The entire plant is active herbally. So pervasive and familiar was the use
of Mullein in early America, one of the Missouri pioneers named Helderman, was heard to
offer this valuable advice to his young grandson: "Young sprout, you see that plant (Mullein)
over there? That'll heal about anything." Indeed, Mullein can be brought into service to heal
many different broken and torn structures of the body. Even for a seemingly hopeless
condition such as a painful, suppurating
("weeping") varicose vein there is hope for
more than the typical advice of, "Well it's
just your age. You are just going to have to
go home and learn to live with it." To repair
such a problem, apply Vitamin E from 100 or
400 i.u. capsules around the area, then Arnica,
Oil of Cajeput and Herbal Adjustment. Next,
soak a layer of absorbent gauze or natural
fiber cheesecloth with half Knitbone and half
Mullein. Lay this over the area, then cover
with plastic sandwich wrap and then wrap
with a final cloth to hold all in place. Leave
on overnight and change each morning and
night. Wash the area and allow to dry before
putting on a fresh application. Persist until
well. Mullein is a remedy for air pollution and
damage to the lungs. As further proof of its pollution converting properties, you can often see
it growing near expressways and interstate highways making good clean oxygen out of the
hydrocarbon pollution. Nature often puts the remedy near the problem. Long before there
187
were roads or paved highways, the Native American peoples smoked Mullein leaves to
relieve lung congestion. Mullein may be used to improve the strength and vigor of the whole
body, and especially for shortness of breath, asthma, colds, nerve disorders and heart
conditions. Venereal disease in women, with or without bleeding, find in Mullein a valuable
remedy. Childhood headaches and epilepsy respond surely to Mullein's favorable energies.
DOSAGE: For general use, 40 drops three times per day, after meals. For severe cases of
shortness of breath and asthma, 40 drops per hour, every hour, while awake. Also, twice
daily, rub Mullein over entire chest and back along with Vitamin E from 100 or 400 i.u.
capsules followed by Herbal Adjustment and Oil of Cajeput. Avoid contact with eyes and
private areas.
NOTE: For children's Dosages, a good "rule of thumb" or general rule is, one drop added per
additional year, for example, 3 years old = 3 drops. Of course, a child's Dosage can be
repeated, as needed, to obtain the needed results, especially in times of crisis. Children are
not all alike. They are individuals. Therefore, some children need much more of an herb or
herbal combination then others, but, we do not wish to overdo a good thing, therefore, it is
best to use the gradual approach, as time permits, to ascertain the best amounts needed for
the individual child.
MULLEIN (FLOWER) OIL
Verbascum thapsus oleum verbasum
PROPERTIES AND USES: Prevent

stretch marks, hearing, repair connective
tissue.
COMMON NAMES: Mullein Flower Oil.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Mullein Flower

Oil is of great service to repair chronic, long
existing joint problems. It is applied
liberally to the joint(s) in trouble, three to
four times per day, until well. To prevent
stretch marks during pregnancy, apply
Mullein Flower Oil daily, at least twice per
day, to areas of stress: hips, abdomen, inner
thighs and breasts. For those losing larger
amounts of weight when dieting, to prevent
stretch lines, the same is advised. For relief of earache and ear pressures, soak a cotton ball
with Mullein Flower Oil and insert into the ear canal(s). Leave in overnight. Insert a fresh
cotton ball with oil in the morning for the daytime. Repeat as necessary until well.
DOSAGE: As given above.
188
MYRRH
Commiphora myrrha
Commiphora molmol
PROPERTIES AND USES: Antibacterial, antiseptic, antiviral, circulatory, immune system.
COMMON NAMES: Myrrh Gum, Gum Myrrh Tree.
PARTS USED: Resin.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Myrrh has the undisputed reputation to function in the binding up
of wounds and as a healer of open wounds. Myrrh is extremely effective in speeding up the
flow of sluggish circulatory fluid by a factor of four to one. This, along with its catalyst
properties with other herbs, makes it beneficial for the heart and circulatory system. It has
long been taken internally and applied to the gums, as a dental herb to prevent infection often
experienced after tooth extractions. After the umbilical cord is cut, Myrrh is applied to
prevent infection. For sore nipples, Myrrh is mixed with Vitamin E oil, from capsules, or
melted beeswax and applied to the area. Myrrh is a first-rate remedy for infected sore tonsils
and sore throat. It may be used as a gargle 80 drops to a 1/2 cup of water, or as a coating
when powdered Myrrh is mixed with Vitamin E oil, from capsules. Myrrh raises the
immunity and the white blood count to fight infections.
NETTLE
Urtica dioica, L
PROPERTIES AND USES: Arthritis, dissolves uric

acid, repairs kidney and urinary system, start and continue
milk flow, stubborn skin problems, calcium source,
chromium source, magnesium source, helps circulation,
weight reduction, hair.
COMMON NAMES: Common Stinging Nettle,

Great Stinging Nettle.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Most people experience a

stinging sensation when touching fresh Nettle leaves.
After soaking the leaves in water for a few hours they lose their sting, but they do impart, to
the water, a beautiful astringent quality. After shaving or as a facial, Nettle provides a
marvelous antiseptic service and functions as a skin toner. On further examination of Nettle
we find the properties necessary to correct the miseries of bladder inflammation, dizziness,
spleen and lymphatic problems, liver, and yes, even the "heartbreak of seborrhea, eczema,
and psoriasis." Part of Nettle's corrective powers are due to the presence of a rich source of
189
the mineral element chromium which is essential for the pancreas to produce and utilize the
hormone insulin. To restore hair color, the extract is massaged nightly into the scalp. For
weight loss, Nettle is combined half and half with Bladderwrack, 40 drops of the mixture
three to four times per day. It is now known that Nettle contains a generous supply of the
easily absorbable minerals of calcium and magnesium. These mineral properties alone can
help explain the remaining functions of Nettle. Number one, Nettle can help nursing mothers
to start the flow of milk and continue it, and expect themselves and baby to be calm and free
of cramping. Number two, Nettle, by itself, can be very useful to clean painful acids from
muscles, joints and kidneys and thus, obtain much comfort for the sufferer.
DOSAGE: 40 drops, three to four times per day. Externally, as needed, to cover the area
generously, three to four times per day, or more often if itching is involved.
NUTMEG
Myristica moschata
PROPERTIES AND USES: Expel gas,

nausea, joy.
COMMON NAMES: Nutmeg.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Is much enjoyed

in North America as a spice, especially around
Christmas and the New Year observances,
to flavor a drink known as eggnog. Since
Nutmeg was first introduced into commerce in Europe, in the 12th century by Arab traders,
it has been used to flavor foods, and for relief of nausea, vomiting and gas. Use only in small
amounts to achieve its calming and pleasing effects.
DOSAGE: 1 to 10 drops as needed in a little milk, water or juice. As a flavoring, add to

foods according to taste.
OAT STRAW
Avena sativa, L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Hair, drives out foreign objects, mercury poisoning and
mercury fillings (heavy metals), calcium replacement, chromium source, magnesium source,
silicon source, aching muscles, sleep aide, promotes hair growth.
COMMON NAMES: Wild Oats, Oat Bran.
PARTS USED: Plant tops.
190
BODILY INFLUENCES: Among experienced practitioners you will find use of the dried
oat plant stem known as oat straw, scientific name, Avena sativa. This straw has a high
content of a heavy, natural mineral known as silicon and the mineral element, magnesium.
The smooth, hard, shiny finish on the Oat Straw, that is so resilient, owes its properties
to silicon. So beautifully finished as a flexible and strong support is this Oat Straw, that it
is difficult to get it to rot and return to soil again. Thus, what we have here are the properties
we desire for the strengthening of nerves,
fingernails, bones, teeth, skin and hair. With
Oat Straw, we put that same resilient finish on the
body. There is much evidence that silicon can be
used extensively for the basis of life itself, just as , 4 ,,o*
carbon. Even more astonishing is the apparent lik
ability of silicon to easily change to calcium in the
body, wherever it is needed. As many people have 4 ,r, 411% Vi d 1/4

functions of the body by speeding them up and or
slowing them down, but are not changed themselves in the process). Magnesium also
prevents muscles from contracting too strongly and cutting off circulation. A great number
of dis-eases are caused in this manner. The reason so many different-appearing dis-eases
occur is that this stress attacks the weakest part of the person's body make up and that varies
from person to person, even though the basic cause is the same. You may occasionally
encounter a baffling disorder or dis-ease and just don't know what to do. If you do, go back to
basic nutrition and give magnesium and you will be right most of the time.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops after meals. In a year's time, a person will be amazed at the
difference in the body's vigor and ability to withstand rough treatment.
OIL OF CAJEPUT
Melaleuca leucadendron oleum cajuputi
PROPERTIES AND USES: Apply externally to kill fungus and infection. Bites, insects,
parasites, poisoning, allergies, pain, sprains and aches, serious injury, colds, cough and flu,
stopped up nose, antiseptic, canker sores, cold sores, expel mucus, sore throat, earache,
headache, head lice, yeast problems, swollen breasts, venereal disease problems, acne,
athletes foot, toenail fungus, cuts.
COMMON NAMES: Cajeputi.
191
PARTS USED: Circulatory fluid of the Cajeput Tree.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Comes to us from the tropics of India and the Molucca Islands of
Indonesia. This small tree, or tall bush with drooping limbs, is much like a weeping willow,
with multiple layers of paper-like thin bark. Cajeput oil is related, in function, to something
called "Tea Tree Oil," but the action, and not unpleasing taste of Cajeput, is preferred by a
great many herbalists. In spite of its tropical home in a humid, hot environment, the Cajeput
tree does not fall prey to fungus or infections because of the antibiotic oil which circulates in
its sap (circulatory fluid). It maintains very good health, thank you. This oil can be taken by
people for the same purpose. If candida yeast infections are a problem, then mix three to four
drops with a little food and eat at each meal. Naturally, to prevent reinfection, "drug
antibiotics" must be eliminated from the diet, as well as meats, where the animals have been
fed on antibiotics as part of their diet. Another thing to consider, is possible reinfection where
the yeast problem would be traded back and forth. In this respect, sexual partners must
exercise care to prevent reinfection. A bowel program is also a must to eliminate the bowel
residues which play host to, and furnish a convenient home base for the yeast to retreat to or
attack from. If a cold or the flu, sprinkle a few drops of Oil of Cajeput on a handkerchief or
tissue and breathe deeply, as needed, to keep nostrils open. To open stopped up sinuses
immediately, put one drop of Oil of Cajeput in one half cup of water (distilled is best) and
irrigate the nose, lean the head back and sniff several drops through the nose into the throat.
An eyedropper is a good aid to this procedure. In cases of flu, fever, tight chest and or
laryngitis, place one to two drops directly on the tongue and apply several drops to the throat
and chest area. Cover up and sweat the mucus loose as the oil penetrates and breaks up the
infected mucus. You may cough up mucus as tough as tire treads, but you will be well in a
very short time. Oil of Cajeput is a pain reliever if sinus blockages or headaches occur. Apply
the oil to the painful area and the pain leaves. The same can be done for toothaches or tooth
abscesses, to clean them. Place one drop of the oil on a cotton ball and lay between the gums
and cheek and leave there until relief. For external sores and abscesses that just won't heal,
mix one part Oil of Cajeput with three parts olive oil, place on gauze and lay over the area.
The area will slough off dis-eased tissue and build healthy, pink, repaired tissue in short
order. For relief of swollen breast(s) due to congestion, apply full strength to breast(s)
externally as needed. For boils and carbuncles (multiple boils involving an area), generously
rub the Oil of Cajeput directly on the area. The oil will penetrate at once and relieve the pain,
and mix with the purulent (pus) material and push it out or dissolve it. Oil of Cajeput is very
handy to have around the house for ordinary cuts and scrapes, as well as, serious cuts and
gashes. In these cases apply, as needed, full strength to heal without a scar and prevent
infection. You need not "medically wash" the area and cause more pain. Just apply, or let drip
on, the Oil of Cajeput. Swellings around the toenails or fingernails are repaired by a few
drops directly applied. Ringworm and external fungus infection, such as athletes foot, are
also quickly dispatched by Cajeput. If "dryness" occurs in the area where Oil of Cajeput is
used, also apply oil from 100 or 400 units Vitamin E capsules. If head lice, mix one part
Oil of Cajeput with three parts of olive oil and apply to the scalp. Leave on overnight and
shampoo next morning. Repeat each evening until free of lice. Then, ten days after free of
lice, repeat process to kill any remaining lice or hatched eggs. In cases of "colitis problems"
with hemorrhages, apply 80 drops of Cajeput Oil, three times per day to the abdominal area.
When "erosion of the cervix" occurs, douche daily with five drops of Cajeput in one cup of
distilled water. The same mixture can be used as a vaginal douche for gonorrhea. Impetigo
(a highly infectious rash of yellow, pus-filled skin blisters) can be fully corrected in a short
192
time by direct applications. Oil of Cajeput is truly a potent weapon among our herbal
resources for building better health naturally.
DOSAGE: Apply to chest to expel mucus. And as given above. For mosquito and insect
bites, apply directly to the area. To repel mosquito's, apply EXTERNALLY TO EXPOSED
AREA. Do not get in the eyes. If this happens accidentally, flush with water. (See: Cascara
Sagrada or C.C.E.-W for a bowel program).
OLIVE LEAF
Olea suropaea
PROPERTIES AND USES: Defeats harmful

microorganisms, antibiotic, virus and bacteria
and many types of fungal parasite problems,
energy, repair of heart and circulatory problems,
normalizes blood pressure, reverses colds and
flu, fatigue and muscles soreness, strengthens
the immune system's scavenging ability.
Olive Leaf— Olea sp. COMMON NAMES: Olive Leaf

PARTS USED: Leaves.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The Olive Leaf in liquid extract form is renowned for defeating
harmful microorganisms. As an antibiotic, it proceeds with equal ability against virus and
bacteria and many types of fungal parasite problems. The Olive Leaf possesses the ability to
disrupt the virus when it tries to reproduce and stops it in its tracks. Users also report other
categories of improvement, including increased energy with repair of heart and circulatory
problems, and normalized blood pressure. Freedom from recurrence of colds and flu with
fatigue and muscles soreness, demonstrate Olive Leafs role in strengthening the immune
system's scavenging ability.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops three times per day. 40 drops per day as a maintenance. 40 drops
hourly, if continued antibiotic relief is needed.
OL' NUMBER 11 (FORMULA #11 - OL'11)
PROPERTIES AND USES: Bone, flesh, cartilage and nerve

repair, longevity.
COMMON NAME: 01' Number]], Formula #11, OL' #11.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Used to repair or strengthen any type

of brain, nerve, flesh, cartilage or muscle injury weakness. It has
been known to repair bones in 1/3 the average time. Very healing
and provides the body with all the necessary elements for tissue
repair. For bumps, bruises, sprains, breaks, deep tissue damage,
severed nerves, repair of heart and stroke damage, think
193
Or Number 11. For maintenance and body building 01'Number 11 is at your service.
DOSAGE: If you cannot work on the area directly, then take 01' Number 11 internally.
40 to 80 drops, three times per day for repair or adding strength to the body. For severe
injuries or heavy athletic training, one teaspoon to one tablespoon, three to four times per
day. Additionally, for serious injury, you can work on the area directly. One very successful
procedure is as an overnight application. Apply the following things directly to the area
externally. Apply the herb Arnica directly to the skin of the area or around the site to get the
physical shock out of the area. In this way, the injury can heal rapidly. Next, apply Vitamin E
from 100 or 400 i.u. capsules (International Unit, a measure of liquid vitamins) to improve
the action of oxygen for repair and to prevent irritation if very sensitive skin. At this point,
apply externally, either Peppermint Oil or Oil of Cajeput and Herbal Adjustment. This
relieves pain and improves the circulation in the area to be repaired. Next, soak a single layer
of natural fiber cheesecloth or absorbent gauze with 01' Number 11. Wrap this cloth, soaked
with 01' Number 11, around the injured area and cover it with plastic sandwich wrap. Then,
wrap a cloth around all to hold in place for overnight. The next morning, remove the
application and discard. Wash the area and allow to dry. (Never reuse the application, as this
thermal and moisture barrier application also draws poisons out through the skin, as well as
driving the repair herbs internally). Repeat the application procedure for the daytime.
Continue with an application for the day and night until well.
COMBINATION: White Oak Bark, Marshmallow, Mullein, Mugwort, Indian Tobacco,

OREGON GRAPE
Berberis aquifolium
PROPERTIES AND USES: Nerve tonic, depurient

(purifies), alterative, lymphatic cleaner, antisyphilitic,
skin corrector.
COMMON NAMES: Mahonia, Rocky Mountain

Grape, Trailing Mohonia, Mountain Grape, Wild
Oregon Grape, Holly-leaved Barberry.
PARTS USED:
Rhizomes (underground stems) and roots.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Similar in action to Barberry,

both plants contain an unusual, yellow, bitter principle
called Berberine. This gives Oregon Grape its great
detergent, antibiotic strength in cleaning the lymphatics
and clearing up secondary syphilis (that is, those
problems after the primary canker sore, wherever swollen
glands, throat and pelvic area are concerned). Whenever
characteristic dots like puffs of cotton occur in the iris of
the eye, called a "lymphatic rosary," Oregon Grape is recommended. Changes in appetite as
194
with Barberry, often occur in the body and a person reaches out for unusual and different
foods than those of the normal junk food diet. An unusual desire for a salad instead of a
cigarette is not uncommon. Oregon Grape is especially kind to the polluted blood stream and
cleans it as well as cleaning the reproductive organs. Especially uplifting is the willingness of
Oregon Grape to attack chronic illness. Oregon Grape is one of the heavyweights to tackle
serious problems of the liver, lymphatics, joints, female and male reproductive systems and
general conditions of ill health.
DOSAGE: Five to 20 drops one to three times per day.
OSHA
Liqusticum poteri
PROPERTIES AND USES: Cancer

disorders and tumors and preventative,
build immunity, viral infections, tested and
true pioneer remedy.
COMMON NAMES: Porter's Lovage,

Colorado Coughroot.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Osha is, in many

ways, related to the herb Angelica (SEE:
ANGELICA) and can be used for similar purposes. Osha, however, has been used, not just
for the stomach to promote proper stomach acid, but has much successful folk use for what
we now know are immune system problems and problems resulting from virus attacks. North
American Pioneer medicine is not speculative, but rather very direct. You used what you
knew worked, by use and direct observation, and just solved the problem. And if it is a purely
physical problem, it gets solved in a hurry. Even when it was not purely physical, at least
some relief from suffering could be expected. Osha belongs to this class of remedies, and
survives as folk knowledge because of its reliability and not because of scientific
experimentation. Hence, its reputation in the use of destroying cancerous conditions and
correcting immune system problems, by, as we know today, reviving the immune system and
getting the body in condition to use its own natural potent weapons of immunity.
DOSAGE: 40 drops per day as maintenance of the immune system, and eliminate the "junk
foods" and the "crummy yummies" from the diet. 40 to 80 drops, three times per day, to
recover immune functions. In crisis conditions, give 40 drops per hour, keep the person
covered up warmly (with natural fiber bedding) and let them sweat it out. Give a cup of
Yarrow for any thirst during this procedure.
PARSLEY
Petroselinum sativum
195
PROPERTIES AND USES: Autonomic nervous system, fluid retention, diuretic, breath
cleaner, scalp parasites, dry up mother's milk, swollen breasts, deodorant, iron source,
potassium source.

fine source of the B-complex vitamins, both of
which give a direct energy boost to the nervous
system. With all these virtues, Parsley works to
normalize blood sugar. Traditionally, Parsley
has been used to stop the growth of tumors and
cancers. Apply the extract several times per day
to the area. Apply to scalp to kill parasites.
Apply, externally, for relief of swollen breasts
and enlarged glands, several times per day.
Parsley has been used to dry up milk in "wet
nurses." For this use, apply liberally to the

sagging stomach after birth or weight loss
add Buckthorn.
COMMON NAMES: Balm Mint, Ementhe

Polvree, Pfefferminz, Curled Mint.
PARTS USED: Stems and leaves.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Quite aside from

being one of the most popular flavoring agents,
the therapeutic value of Peppermint has its roots
in herbal use from the beginning of man's first
association with it. It has been sought out
through the eons of time as a pleasant refreshment. Its leaves are chewed, teas are made from
its leaves as well as the oil. The use of these brings an exhilarating aromatic sensation as well
as fresh oxygen for well-being. Mothers have long known a cup of the tea will relieve baby's
colic. A touch of peppermint oil to the tongue of a baby or adult pushes distressful gas from
the body and settles the stomach (especially good to calm morning sickness). The oil's
modern, innovative use is part of the Herbal Adjustment explained under its own heading in
this book. A partial list of Peppermint's additional corrective services is diarrhea, dizziness,
convulsion, earache, fainting, fevers of all types, stomach and bowel gas, nausea, nervous
headache, restlessness, motion sickness, spasms, toothache, vomiting and heart palpitations.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops three times per day of the extract or as needed.

lower back pain, venereal diseases and venereal warts.
COMMON NAMES: Prince's Pine, Rheumatism Weed, King's Cure, Ground Holly,
Noble Pine, Pyrola, Pine Tulip.
BODILY INFLUENCES: (Pip'-sis-see-wah) Say it softly and slowly and you will hear,
in this American Indian name, the spring rain softly falling on the petals and flowers of this
cheerful little spring flower. Use for any of these conditions: burning urine, prostate irritation,
mucus in the urine, water retention, lower back pain or pressure (due to the kidneys), sore
joints due to gonorrhea, or skin disorders. Many chronic problems, with no seeming cause
or cure, may be due to a secondary or primary manifestation of a venereal infection(s), which
may or may not have been inherited. In these baffling cases, consider Pipsissewa as a key to
200
open the lock. Pipsissewa is gentle on the stomach. Rub on sore muscles after heavy lifting

202
PRICKLY ASH
Xanthoxylum americanum
PROPERTIES AND USES: Overall stimulant, cardiac

stimulant, alterative, deobstruent (dissolves obstructions),
antiseptic, sialagogue (moistens dry mouth), nervine.
COMMON NAMES: Yellow Wood, Toothache Bark,

Suterberry, Pellitory Bark.
PARTS USED: Bark and berries.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The action of Prickly Ash is that

of an overall stimulant. The demand for a stimulant should
not be abused, such as with coffee. Prickly Ash is not a
neuro-whip like excessive coffee, but an agent to swallow
up fatigue produced by lactic and uric acids (waste acids
that cause fatigue). This produces renewed vigor and
alertness as if a person
had just had a good sleep. The action is slower than .1111P
-
Cayenne, but within minutes, the effects are distinctly '

_ _
noted. The stimulating activity is not overshadowed by ,
the calming effect on the nerves. It has a more enduring .
effect than the stimulation noted by Cayenne. In

problems of paralysis, syphilis, skin disorders and
94,
lymphatic engorgement, the deobstruent properties of
Prickly Ash make it an effective agent for clearing and
A .04

correcting those afflictions. In the over-relaxed Xanthoxyhum americanum
condition of the female system and under-functioning
tissue, these are traded for new tone and efficiency. Prickly Ash should not be overlooked
for asthma and cold extremities or colic, diarrhea and dropsy (fluid retention).
DOSAGE: 10 to 40 drops three times per day, or as needed.
PROTEIN
Lacto-Albumin predikested
PROPERTIES AND USES: Longevity, baffling disorders, building body repair, injury,
cancer disorders and tumors, diabetes.
COMMON NAMES: Protein.
PARTS USED: Protein bearing parts.
BODILY INFLUENCES: (High quality pre digested protein fraction of milk). Milk has
-
often been introduced as Nature's most perfect food. It probably would be, if it could be
digested. Eighteen per cent (18%) of the North American population, for instance, has a milk
203
intolerance to cow's milk. That means, for them, milk is a foreign substance which cannot
be properly digested. Hence, allergies, skin problems, colds, flu and worse occur. This is
unfortunate when a person cannot eat the food which might help them. Milk was meant to
be a fully sustaining diet for the young, in humans, for at least the first six months. Now,
if you could find a way to digest milk, it could become one of the most important protein
sources in the diet. A way has been found. Digestive enzymes (proteins that break down food
substances) have been added to the finest proteins in milk. The result is a life-sustaining
source of very high quality protein with very few calories. Remember, cancer patients die,
finally, unless mishandled through ignorance, from protein starvation. This can be prevented,
by giving an adequate protein intake of high quality digested protein. For the normal person
who wishes to slow down the ravages of aging and its sorrows, protein, vitamins and
minerals come to the rescue. Take enough so that you see the difference. For training
athletes, a protein supplement, plus protein in the regular food, gives a double intake of
protein for rapid development. Heal injuries and surgical operations quickly with increased
protein intake. To stabilize high or low blood sugar levels, an adequate amount of high
quality protein intake, taken frequently and well digested, is vital for normalization of either
condition. For young women developing tissue integrity, protein is a must. It may take
several months to redevelop true natural stamina from adding adequate protein to the diet, or
longer, if under continuing stress. Think about it. A person could have gotten worse under
stress. To not get worse and actually get ahead of the game is quite something. At any rate,
what else would you have been doing? Hence, be patient and rich rewards will be yours,
my friend.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops, daily, following meals, or if need be, in place of meals. If diabetic
(high blood sugar) or hypoglycemic (low blood sugar), then up to one teaspoon or more taken
five times per day.
PUMPKIN SEED
Cucurbita pepo
PROPERTIES AND USES: Worms,

pinworms, male fertility and virility,
foot odor, white spots under nails,
selenium source, zinc and copper source,
Muscular Dystrophy.
COMMON NAMES: Pompion, Cold

Seeds.
PARTS USED: Seeds.
BODILY INFLUEINCES: u000 source

for the valuable trace element Zinc which builds skin integrity internally and externally,
promotes normal wound healing, is needed to insure a strong immune system in developing
baby, grows healthy hair and nails and prevents onset of some cancers. Zinc eliminates foot
odor in some individuals. One way to determine if a body has a Zinc deficiency, is to look for
white spots under the fingernails. If present and chronic (persistent), then be assured there is
a Zinc deficiency. Pumpkin Seed is an especially good source of the trace mineral Zinc for
204
men especially to promote virility and fertility, maintain proper prostate health and to correct
a swollen prostate. One of the first warning signs, for
men with prostate problems, is that the urinary flow is
slow to start. Pumpkin Seed is also high in another
valuable trace element: namely, selenium. Selenium,
being an antioxidant, prevents damage from poisons to
the body's genetic materials, that are responsible for cell
duplication and sex cell reproduction and to prevent
cancer cell formation. Excellent parasite remedy;
especially good to rid the body of pin worms, round
worms, and tape worms. These problems are far more
widespread than most people would ever suspect, even
today. Pumpkin seeds also contain the element Copper
which must be and is balanced with its Zinc content this corrects Muscular Dystrophy.
SPECIAL NOTE: If many baffling symptoms and "none of the herbs seem to work," then
it is time to "deworm." It is estimated, conservatively, that one out of every two people has
one or more infectious parasites - yes, even in the "civilized" areas of earth.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops three times per day. To rid the body of parasites, one teaspoon to
one tablespoon each evening with a good bowel cleaner. (See: Cascara Sagrada, C.C.E.-W or
Buckthorn). You must be able to flush out what Pumpkin Seed has killed to prevent nausea.
PURPLE LOOSESTRIFE
Lythrum salicaria: LYTUACEAE
PROPERTIES AND USES: Eyes, secretory glands

and organs, nervous system.
COMMON NAMES: Spiked Loosestrife, Sage

Willow, Purple Willow
Herb. 14,
PARTS USED: Herb.
BODILY
INFLUENCES:
Loosestrife is a
member of the mint
family, long esteemed
in strengthening the
muscular fibers and
correction of eyesight. For conditions of clouded vision or
restoration of eyesight, prepare eyewash of 20 drops to 1/2
cup of distilled water and bathe the eyes with an eyecup two-
three times per day for five minutes at a time. Although Loosestrife exerts astringent
properties on the mucous membranes, its action is not drying which makes it a valuable
205
tonic for a weakened, over-extended colon and intestine. Purple Loosestrife is especially
attracted to the troubled gallbladder, liver and kidneys to function as a tonic and a nutrient to
restore them to a strong and healthy condition.
NOTE: Chemical companies want you to buy poison and kill Purple Loosestrife as a terrible
weed endangering crops. It was pointed out that it only grows near water and can't endanger
field crops. Then they said it crowds out aquatic plants, which also support waterfowl. The
fact is it grows there until the damage done by man can be corrected and then the other
naturally occurring plants can return.
DOSAGE: 20 to 40 drops per 1/2 cup water as a douche for vaginal infection. 40 drops three
times per day for all other uses.

Pygeum Bark — Pygeum africanus
Photograph by Barbara Jacobs I BODILY INFLUENCES: Comes to us from

the herbal experience of Africa. Like the herb,
Saw Palmetto, PYGEUM BARK contains an active substance called beta-sitosterol, which
reduces inflammation of the male prostate to normalize hormonal activity. It thus prevents
the inability to function sexually and corrects it in the aging male body.
QUACK GRASS
Triticum repens
PROPERTIES AND USES: Baffling disorders, kidney and urinary systems, gout, selenium
source to eat free radical poisons.
COMMON NAMES: Couch Grass, Shelly Grass, Quick Grass, Quitch Grass,
Twitch Grass, Dog Grass, Quickens, Witch Grass, Knot Grass, Dog Weed, Chiendent,
Dog's Tooth Grass.
206
BODILY INFLUENCES: Triticum repens is also known by many other common names,
such as: Dog Grass, Witch Grass, Shelly Grass, Quick Grass, Twitch Grass, Knot Grass, and
Dog Weed. This is an undistinguished looking, but dependable, valuable wild grass with an
unsuspected hint of sweet taste. Of special interest to herbalists and natural practitioners is
the fact that Quack Grass contains a very rich and
effective source of the trace element, Selenium. This
friendly herbal source of the important trace mineral
element, Selenium is used by the body to cause an
enzyme (a compound produced by the body which
speeds up or slows down the living process without
itself being altered) called glutathione peroxidase
(glu'-tuh-thy-own purr'-ox-uh-dase) to stop destructive
free radicals (dangerous oxygen compounds formed in
the process of living as fat stores are maintained, and
from environmental pollution and when fats are fried)
from interfering with or causing mutations (defective
or enemy cells) during normal cellular division.
Another word to describe what the Selenium in
Quack Grass is doing here is the word, antioxidant. me,Aratimitil
By stopping the formation of defective cells, this
immediately suggests the use of Quack Grass to prevent Quack Grass —Tritscum repens
formation of cancerous cells. This explains why earlier Photograph by Barbara Jacobs
herbalists have reported using Quack Grass for such a

variety of conditions. Certainly, we know many animals eat Quack Grass when they are sick.
Cats eat Quack Grass to throw up hairballs. (No, you do not have to have hairballs to take
Quack Grass). Quack Grass is used to clean out the bladder and urinary tract. For men,
Quack Grass can reduce swelling of the prostate gland. For this purpose, Quack Grass
combines especially well with the herb Saw Palmetto. Quack Grass also dissolves the acids
which torment joints and kidneys and cause gout.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops three times per day. As a maintenance, 40 to 80 drops per day.
QUINCE
Cydonia vulgaris
PROPERTIES AND USES: Skin

care, hair.
COMMON NAMES: Golden Apple,

Quince Seed.
PARTS USED: Fruit.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Quince is

a tree, about the size of an apple tree,
which grows wild in Persia. From
there it has been much planted
throughout Europe and North America
207
for its fruit, seeds and as an ornamental. The fruit has an acid taste and produces a calming
effect. The esteemed American Natural Practitioner, Jethro Kloss, used the juice to rub on the
scalp to correct thinning hair and to prevent hair fall and to grow hair again where the roots
were not dead. The covering around Quince Seeds makes them quite slippery, when wet, and
produces a soothing and toning affect when applied to the skin as a skin care regimen. The
seeds are also used to make a tea, or a liquid extract, for soreness of the mouth and gaseous,
stress related disorders of the stomach and or intestines. Quince Seeds can be used as a gentle
bowel cleaner and to clear up an irritated or dry cough.
DOSAGE: 80 drops, as needed, for gaseous conditions. For coughs, 40 drops hourly, as
needed. Apply to the scalp, at least once per day, for hair conditions as described above.
For sore mouth conditions, hold 80 drops in the mouth as long as comfortable and repeat
as necessary. As a bowel cleaner, one to three teaspoons each evening.
RED CLOVER
Trifolium pratense, L.

Sialagogue (moistens dry mouth),
deobstruent, alterative, sedative.
COMMON NAMES: Cow Grass,

Purple Clover, Cleavers Grass, Trefoil.
PARTS USED: Flowering tops.

'
BODILY INFLUENCES: Red Clover

owes some of its richness to the ability
of extracting Calcium, Silicon and
Mineral Salts from the earth. It promotes
an alkaline environment of the blood
stream, which is antagonistic to cancer.
It has been long recognized as an anti-
cancer herb, which promotes a healthy
granulation of the afflictions and their dissolution. It is admirable for correcting lymphatic
problems, kidney conditions, malignant ulcers and sores of long standing. Dr. Jethro Kloss
(a noted early 20th Century American Herbalist), praises it highly. Extended and successive
use of Red Clover extract has been responsible for removing external cancer and old skin
ulcers. Wet a large area of the skin surface several times daily with the extract. The rich iron
and mineral content has made it a favorite of Russian folk medicine for shortness of breath
and anemia.
DOSAGE: 20 to 40 drops three times per day on the tongue or in juice or water. Apply or
spray on one tablespoonful, or more, each time, if external cancer or shingles.
208
RED CLOVER BLENDED
PROPERTIES AND USES: Cancer,

tumors, degenerative disorders.
COMMON NAMES: Jason Winter's

Tea.
COMBINATION: Greasewood,
Red Clover, Buchu.

combination was made famous by a
desperate amateur American herbalist,
Jason Winter. Necessity being the
mother of invention, he cured himself of cancer. In the process, he developed this herbal
combination to do the job. Now many others have used this combination and report similar
results and claims for its effectiveness in eliminating cancer. The herbal components of the
formula perform strongly together as a team to increase each others effect over what they
produce if taken separately. Greasewood by itself has a long history of having been used to
dissolve cancers and tumors by the American Indians in the desert southwest. Red Clover is
the prime herbal alterative (regulating herb) of northern American Indians, for counteracting
scrofulous (lymphatic) disorders and skin dis-eases, and as an antidote for cancer. It is also a
specific for the kidneys and thereby, helps with the removal of toxic material from the body.
Buchu is known to be rich in potassium and facilitates the removal of irritating poisonous
wastes from the blood and lymph through the kidneys while at the same time immediately
soothing any inflammation that might be caused from poisons being eliminated. Buchu
provides the spark, which coordinates this highly effective herbal team.
COMBINATION: Red Clover, Greasewood (Chaparral), Buchu.
INTERNAL DOSAGE: 10 to 20 drops daily as a preventative. One teaspoon after meals,

to kill and dissolve "bad cells." In very advanced cases, up to one tablespoon three times per
day. The amount taken should be managed in this manner: Give only as much as the body
can eliminate daily without nausea or discomfort. Also, one tablespoon of C.C. E.-W
(Cleansing Corrective Extract-W) per day and one tablespoon of Alfalfa (Multi-vitamin,
mineral and protein supplement) three times per day. When using Red Clover Blended for
dissolving cancers, be sure to use in conjunction with a good bowel management program
which produces at least two, and preferably three, easy and complete movements per day.
To flush out what Red Clover Blended is killing and dissolving to avoid nausea and "sick
feelings." (See: Cascara Sagrada, Buckthorn, C.C.E.-W).
EXTERNAL APPLICATION: Work in this manner: Each night, apply Vitamin E from 100
or 400 i.u. capsules (International Unit, a measure of liquid vitamins) to the area as an
oxygen extender ("bad cells" and tumors cannot exist in areas of good oxygenation), then
apply Oil of Cajeput (decongestant and pain reliever), next, apply Herbal Adj. (increases
circulation and pain reliever). Then, soak a single layer of cheesecloth or absorbent gauze
with Red Clover Blended and wrap this around, or place over, the area to be corrected. Cover
this with plastic sandwich wrap to form a thermal and moisture barrier and drive the herbs
209
into the area, while pulling poisons out through the skin. In the morning, remove and discard
the application. Wash the area and allow to dry. Then repeat the application procedure for
the daytime just as you did for the nighttime. Repeat in this fashion until well. A debt of
gratitude for the formula concept of Red Clover Blended is owed to one of the finest
Naturopathic Physicians ever, from Chicago, Illinois U.S.A, Dr. Michael Michaels.

easy delivery. Nausea during pregnancy is relieved and
prevented through the use of Red Raspberry Leaf tea. Red Raspberry Leaves prevent
spotting, miscarriage and hemorrhage when taken throughout pregnancy, and relieve
afterbirth pains. They enrich mother's milk. Take daily each time a child is being carried, as
every pregnancy is a new and different uterus. 40 drops, following meals, during and after
pregnancy. Red Raspberry Leaves are especially soothing to children for stomach and bowel
complaints. Give if prolapsed (fallen) uterus or anus.
210
DOSAGE: For children, one to five drops, every one to two hours while awake. During
pregnancy, and those contemplating pregnancy, take 40 to 80 drops three times per day and
also after birth until uterus is normal in size. 40 to 80 drops, three times per day, to prevent
excessive menstrual flow due to weakened body tissues.
RED ROOT (BLOOD ROOT)
San guinaria canadensis
PROPERTIES AND USES: Gum disease,

plaque, apply externally to gums to clean teeth
roots, skin cancer, high blood pressure, yellow
skin, apply externally to eczema.
COMMON NAMES: Blood Root, Red

Paccoon, Indian Paint, Pauson, Red Paint
Root, Indian Red Paint.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: A cheerful, low growing, early spring, wild flower with delicate
white petals and a golden center. The root sap, which is a brilliant red was used by the
American Indians as a cosmetic. It was employed as lip rouge and for facial marks of
distinction. They also applied it, directly, to cure skin cancer and eczema. More modern use
shows Red Root to clear up yellow skin, as in hepatitis caused by a liver infection or
congested gallbladder. Even more recent tests have shown the use of Red Root extract to be
one of the major dental discoveries in history. Reports indicate that 60% of the people who
lose their teeth do so not because of gum and bone
deterioration. These problems are caused by germs
living on the roots of the teeth, destroying gum tissue
and the jaw bone in which the teeth rest, as well as the
roots of the teeth. These horrible germ colonies are
called plaque. Now for the good news - studies
indicate, after two weeks of applying Red Root to the
gums after each brushing, plaque is reduced by 50%.
In another two weeks, half of the remaining plaque is
gone, and so on. A novel use of Red Root, for this
purpose, can be achieved by adding 40 drops of
Red Root extract to the water-pick container before
cleaning the teeth. Be sure to run a full container of
plain water through the water-pick after use to prevent
clogging. For very troubled areas, put several drops of
Blood Root - Sanguinaria canadensis
Red Root and Formula OL' NUMBER 11 (bone-
rnotograpn oy ttarnara Jacoos
flesh-nerve and cartilage restorer) on a piece of I
cotton, place it between the gum and cheek. Let it rest
there all night and, if necessary, repeat this procedure for daytime use. In larger amounts (30
to 40 drops, three times per day) Red Root can lower dangerously high blood pressure. No
affect is noted on blood pressure if it is not high. Red Root is an arterial sedative if it finds
the arteries of the body in a cramped condition. To use Red Root as a mouthwash, remove
211
one oz. of mouthwash from a pint bottle, add one oz. of Red Root to the remainder and then
use as regular mouthwash.
DOSAGE: 40 drops three times per day, internally. Externally, as needed to cover the skin
area, three to four times per day. For the gums, apply as needed, to cover the area each time
the teeth are brushed (two or three times per day).
REISHI MUSHROOM
Ganoderma lucidum

PROPERTIES AND USES: Cancer disorders and
tumors and preventative, high blood pressure, build
immunity, viral infections.
(
COMMON NAMES: Reishi Mushroom.
PARTS USED: Mushroom.

Reishi Mushroom - Ganoderma lucidum
photo is 1/3 actual size BODILY INFLUENCES: (Ree'-she)

Photograph by Barbara Jacobs MUSHROOM- Is the Japanese word for a healing
mushroom, much researched in Japan. The wisdom
of the use of this mushroom, Ganoderma spp., (spp. means several species, or more than
one of this type) comes to us originally, from ancient Chinese medicine. Recent investigation
of this particular mushroom indicates it works with the body cells to produce a substance
known as interferon. Interferon is a potent, protective, natural protein. It is produced by body
cells that have been invaded by a virus; they, in turn, produce the interferon, which prevents
healthy cells from being invaded by a virus. The Chinese have long used and praised this
mushroom to promote longevity. Even a partial list of its uses would be quite impressive. It is
used in cases we would describe as chronic fatigue; also, for tumors, cancer, hypertension
(high blood pressure) and immune disorders, including those which fit the pattern of what we
describe today as AIDS. The Reishi mushroom is used as a food item in Japan and China by
many people, so there seems to be no problem with its use as an herb if a person can
normally eat mushrooms. Further claims made for its use are to relieve breathing problems,
liver problems and act as an antioxidant. As an antioxidant, the Reishi Mushroom is used to
protect against free radicals (dangerous, destructive, over-active types of oxygen molecules
that react with things they shouldn't and eventually cause the breakdowns we describe as
various dis-eases and old age) produced in the body through the regular processes of living,
environmental poisons, radiation, excessive fat intake, body fat stores maintenance, and
frying fats in food preparation. In order to perform its observed duty, the Reishi Mushroom is
thought to combine with these free radicals and render them harmless. Thus, is described
then, this gift from the eastern part of the world.
DOSAGE: As a maintenance, 40 drops three times per day. 80 drops, three times per day, for
more involved conditions. For serious conditions, one teaspoon to one tablespoon three times
per day.

RICE BRAN
Orvza sativa
PROPERTIES AND USES: Energy, sense of well-

being, hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), sore tongue,
stress, Vitamin-B Complex, CO-Q 10 source, allergies,
calms nerves.
COMMON NAMES: Nivara.
PARTS USED: Outer covering or rice grains.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Source of original B-complex

discovery - outer layers of rice grain. Vitamin B-Complex
source for strong, steady nerves and sustained energy. The
B-Complex could comfortably be described as the "don't
go crazy vitamins." The B-Complex has been proven, again and again, as the vitamins to use
when you feel there is nowhere to find cessation from aggravation. Rice Bran, being a very
rich source of a balanced B-Complex profile of vitamins, can be vital to maintaining normal
blood sugar levels for those suffering from low blood sugar. The B-Complex allows the
nerves of the body to feed on blood sugar and function normally for a harmonious personality
and a clear head for memory and clear thinking. To develop natural stamina, take Rice Bran
and eat high quality protein foods on a regular basis. Persist until results, no matter how long
it takes, whether you feel the results within minutes, or it takes months and much
recuperation is required.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops following meals. Stress and increased mental and physical activity
"burn up" more of the B-Complex vitamins. If a trying time arises, double the normal amount
on that day.
ROSEMARY
Rosmarinus officinalis
PROPERTIES AND USES: Arthritis, hair,

night sweats, nightmares, baffling disorders.
COMMON NAMES: Rosemary Plant,

Garden Rosemary.
BODILY INFLUENCES: This well-known

kitchen herb is the perfect complement for many
types of fowl and enjoys widespread use the
world over, as is the practice in New Zealand when the Maori people boil a wild turkey in hot
volcanic springs. When Queen Elizabeth of Hungary, in the 14th Century, suffered from joint
pains and found Rosemary, she regained her health so well that, at the age of 72, she was
213
asked by the King of Poland to marry him. It is no wonder that the famous Eau de Cologne
has as one of its COMBINATION, Rosemary. (Eau de Cologne means Water of Cologne and
Cologne is a famous ancient city, which is now in the country of Germany, and gave its name
to this scented water). Rosemary is a wonderful stimulant for the circulation. Frequent baths

should we overlook its diuretic action to ease
complaints of the lower back due to kidneys. Rosemary may be used as an enema to clean out
offending wastes, which cause irritation and thus stop the diarrhea. For the gentle touch with
lasting benefits, Rosemary may be your herb.
DOSAGE: For the bath, one teaspoon to one tablespoon in the bath water. For the scalp,
20 to 40 drops applied directly each night. As a douche, one teaspoon, to a cup of distilled
water. For circulation and as a diuretic, 20 to 40 drops, three to four times per day. For
preparing a wild turkey, one tablespoon added to the inside of the turkey before heat is
applied.
ROYAL JELLY
Gelare regia
PROPERTIES AND USES: Energy, glandular nourishment, hormone replacement,

menopause, aged skin, nourish skin, stress, Vitamin-B Complex, pantothenic acid.
COMMON NAMES: Royal Jelly.
PARTS USED: Manufactured by glands of the brain of the worker bees from nutrients
consumed.
BODILY INFLUENCES: When an ordinary, infertile worker bee is chosen to become a

Queen, the community pools its best nutritional and hormonal resources and produces a very
special liquid called Royal Jelly. This highly prized, special food not only provides a much
longer life span, along with this comes greater size, strength and a retractable, reusable
stinger. Royal Jelly also imparts a life vigor capable of sustaining phenomenal and continued
fertility. This is the best the combined group has to offer. The normal young bee is fed this
Royal Jelly and develops into a Queen. With the Queen rides the promise for future
generations and survival of the group. Women especially, and also men, are very pleased
with the external use of Royal Jelly to the skin after cleansing or shaving. The application of
214
Knitbone at the same time is a fine compliment to this practice. This gift of Nature to combat
stress, can be taken internally and gives the entire hormonal system a pleasant boost. Royal
Jelly can be applied to troubled and aged skin to smooth and repair it.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops, three times per day, to counteract stress and nourish the body's
hormonal system. Externally, as desired and needed, to nourish and pamper the skin.
RUE
Ruta graveolens
PROPERTIES AND USES: Repair

connective tissue, carpal tunnel syndrome,
sprains and aches, serious injury, falling
sickness, whooping cough, croup, glandular
swelling, worms, brings on period, vision and
hearing.
COMMON NAMES: Garden Rue,

Countryman's Treacle, Herb of Grace.
BODILY INFLUENCES: So valuable was it considered in the Old Testament times, along
with Mint, a person could pay their tithe (monetary offering) in Rue or Mint. Rue is for
strong eyesight. It strengthens the eye muscles. Also esteemed to give one "insight." Kills
parasites when strewn on the floor or when taken internally. Can be rubbed on stings and
bites to allay their torment. Wonderful functional aid to the ovaries and uterus to insure
regular periods (do not use if pregnant). Calms anxieties and irrational states brought on by
daily strife and worry.
Used to cure sprains, aching tendons and pain in feet and anldes. Rue works on the cartilage
between the bones to remove and prevent
deposits. Think Rue for tennis elbows, damaged
joints and Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. For example,
if Carpal Tunnel Syndrome problems occur
(pinched nerve problem at the wrist with resulting
soreness, weakness, tenderness and reduced
thumb movement), rub Rue on the shoulder, wrist,
back of hand and thumb along with Herbal Adj.
(Adjustment) and Oil of Cajeput and Arnica. Also
take internally, A.C.S. (All Cells "Salts"
minerals), 40 drops, three times per day for
minerals, to prevent cramping. Use Rue to relieve
dizziness and glandular enlargements. Relaxes
tense shoulder and neck muscles. Corrects
whooping cough and croup (alarming raspy
breathing). Apply externally to the troubled area,
in quantities needed to cover the area liberally, three or more times per day.
215
DOSAGE: Internal use - 5 to 20 drops in water or fruit juice before meals. Children: one to
five drops in water or fruit juice (if whooping cough, every hour while awake). To strengthen
eyes: 10 to 40 drops daily. For falling sickness and all other purposes, 40 drops before meals,
diluted in water or fruit juice. Do not take if pregnancy is desired.
RUPTURE WORT
Herniaria glabra

Ruptures, kidneys and urinary system.
COMMON NAMES: Hawkeed.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Known

down through the ages for its use in
healing ruptures; coating stones from
kidneys and bladder as well as
breaking up the stones to cast them out
of the body. Relieves fluid
accumulation around the heart. For
ruptures, apply Vitamin E oil from 100 or 400 i.u. capsules. Prepare a time-release
application with a thermal and moisture barrier to drive the Rupturewort into the troubled
area in the following manner: apply a layer of absorbent gauze or cheese cloth soaked with
Rupturewort over the area of rupture, cover with plastic, and wrap a cloth around this to hold
all in place. Leave on overnight. Wash

SAFFLOWERS
Carthamus tinctorius
PROPERTIES AND USES: Iron source,

sweats out a fever or cold, gas and bloating.
COMMON NAMES: Dyer's Saffron, Saffron

Seed, Parrot's, Corn Safflower, Bastard Saffron,
American Saffron, Thistle Saffron, False Saffron.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Give if low iron blood

count, so absorption of iron is made easier. One
teaspoon of Safflower Extract added to one cup of
hot water to make a tea, taken frequently, sweats
out a fever or cold. Good remedy for childhood
complaints. Rub on back of neck, wrist, spine,
temples and forehead hourly, as needed. Aids in
production of stomach "juices" so food can move
through without gas and bloating.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops following meals or as

an in-between meal pick-me-up.
SAGE
Salvia offlcinalis; LABIA TAE
PROPERTIES AND USES: Sweats out poisons,

brain stimulant, sex stimulant, restores hair and
hair color, balance Zinc and Copper.
COMMON NAMES: Garden Sage, Meadow

Sage.
Sage - Salvia officinalis; LAB1ATAE

PARTS USED: Leaves.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The Old English experience states, there is no need to die if Sage
is in the garden. The strong, aromatic, camphorous odor along with the warm, mild bitter
taste, has made it a favorite as flavoring for soups and seasonings. Much is made today of
hair color, so for those who desire no gray hair, Sage with Rosemary as a rinse and taken
internally will restore and preserve hair color. However, with continued use, the hair may be
somewhat darker than the original color. Indeed, falling hair loss (where the root is not
destroyed) and dandruff can be remedied with the extract massaged into the scalp. Sage is
a great regulator for sexual activity. Excessive desire, as well as enfeebled ability are both
normalized. In taking enough Sage internally to care for hair, this side effect of normalized
sexual activity may also be noted. As of yet, no complaints have been reported with these
217
side effects. To counteract night sweats, Sage has long been revered. Its effect on the
Medulla oblongata (brain stalk) provides us with remedial action for breathing, heart and
blood pressure problems. For those who use their voice for singing or public speaking,
Sage is a remedy for laryngitis and produces a strong voice. Many recorded cases of periodic
depression have been lifted by continued use, as depression can occur in many cases due
to physical problems.
DOSAGE: 20 to 40 drops two times per day. As a rinse for the hair one part extract to
four parts water.
SANICLE
Sanicula marilandica L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Discutient (tumor

dissolver), alterative, depurative (purifying),
vulnerary (healing), astringent.
COMMON NAMES: Worm Sanicle, Pool Root,

American Sanicle, Black Snakeroot.
PARTS USED: Roots and leaves.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The American herbal

practitioner, Jethro Kloss, in his monumental work "Back to Eden," aptly describes Sanicle
in this manner: "This is one of the herbs that could be called a cure-all, because it possesses
powerful cleansing and healing virtues both internally and externally." Sanicle's great
strength includes its uncanny ability to seek out and find anything, which needs correcting
and works on that area first which needs it most.
It also deserves distinction as a "thinking herb." 17-a-*31vit-,(-- Artt

categories of its ubiquitous (seemingly everywhere) application.
DOSAGE: 40 drops two to three times per day. If brain tumor, also apply to entire scalp,
back to neck and temples. Rub one tablespoon into the scalp at night and wear a shower
cap. Wash the area in the morning. During day rub Herbal Adjustment into scalp three
times per day.
218
SARSAPARILLA
Smilax officinalis
PROPERTIES AND USES: Allergies,

lungs, glands, skin, stamina, blood clots,
anti-stress, sense of well-being, energy,
hormone replacement, female problems,
venereal diseases, dermatitis.
COMMON NAMES: Jamaica

Sarsaparilla, Honduras Sarsaparilla,
Spanish Sarsaparilla, Guay-Aquil
Sarsaparilla, Red Sarsaparilla.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: During the 1800's, Sarsaparilla, as a drink, was as well known as
the coca cola drink of today. The reasons it was enjoyed were many. First of all, it is an
excellent source of energy to recover from exhaustion, secondly, it helps a person conquer
stress; thirdly, it is a frisky hormone source for both men and women; lastly, it handles and
prevents venereal disease, especially when mixed with half Golden Seal. Sarsaparilla can also
be effectively employed for relief of menopause, skin eruptions, lymphatic problems and the
"heartbreak of psoriasis."
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops following meals or as an in-between meal pick-me-up. Apply

externally daily, as needed, to skin problems and swellings. As a hormonal source for women
or men, 80 drops three times per day.
SASSAFRAS
Sassafras officinale

Allergies, dissolve and prevent blood
clots, blood thinner, hangovers, poison
ivy, poison oak.
COMMON NAMES: Sassafras Bark,

Ague Tree, Cinnamon Wood, Saloop,
Saxifrax.
PARTS USED: Bark.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Sassafras,

the tree with three different kinds of
leaves on it, is the tree which yields a bark and a root bark which is the real and original
flavor source of root beer. Sassafras is a widely used folk remedy, and commonly used as a
"Spring Tonic." When the body has to switch from heating to cooling after a winter of
219
heating, sometimes, in the matter of a few hours, it can cause a very listless and overwhelmed
feeling. Sassafras tea is called for to thin the thick winter blood for summer cooling. As a
consequence, Sassafras provides abundant energy. In addition to this, it possesses almost
miraculous properties to dissolve and prevent blood clots. When blood clots occur, they are
usually accompanied by a burning, stinging sensation under the skin. Apply Vitamin E from
100 or 400 i.u. capsules to the area, then soak a layer of cheese cloth or absorbent gauze with
Sassafras Extract and lay this over the area and cover with plastic sandwich wrap. Finally,
wrap a cloth around this to hold all in place. Leave on during the day or night and change
morning and night with a fresh application. Wash the area and allow to dry before putting on
a fresh application. Persist until all

prepared by mixing the following
together in one cup of distilled water:

A.C.S. (All Cells Salts), 80 drops
adv
Sassafras, 80 drops Wild Rose Hips
and one teaspoon of Siberian Ginseng. Sassafras officinale
Naturally, this remedy is best Photograph by Barbara Jacobs
administered only after extracting the

promise of never having to repeat this procedure. Sassafras also counteracts the harmful
effects of smoking. For relief of poison ivy or poison oak torment, apply full strength
Sassafras Extract to the troubled area or make a strong tea of the fresh or dried bark and do
the same. A spray bottle or clean perfume atomizer is a good means of application to the
itching areas. Apply as often as desired, or saturate cheese cloth or absorbent gauze with the
extract and lay over the area until relief is obtained. Change dressing every four to six hours
and allow area to dry between applications. Knitbone Extract can also be used, in conjunction
with Sassafras Extract, for added relief and repair of any scratch marks from the ordeal.
SPECIAL NOTE: Some governments ban the use of Sassafras because of an experiment
conducted by some "Scientists" on white rats. The "Scientists" irritated white rats by force-
feeding them concentrated Sassafras, equivalent to 10 gallons of the tea per day, per rat. The
rats hated it and got sick. This proved that Sassafras was dangerous to your health and
therefore, was officially banned. It is our opinion then, that if you drink less than 10 gallons
per day of the tea, and you like it, it's probably good for you.
DOSAGE: 10 to 20 drops following meals. To thin the blood, instead of using aspirin
(produced from coal tar and synthetic vinegar), 40 to 80 drops, three times per day is usually
sufficient. If a person feels too cool then reduce the amount.
220
SAW PALMETTO
Serenoa repens
PROPERTIES AND USES: Hair, hormone

replacement, development, increase breast size,
prostate problems, testosterone source, testicle
size.
COMMON NAMES: Saw Palmetto.
BODILY INFLUENCES: This relatively small

palm tree inhabits the coast of the U.S. from the Carolinas southward. Its roots help to hold
the coastal shoreline together. Produced on its branches is an edible "date" like fruit. The
fruit, along with its seed, have been used by the original coastal inhabitants since before
any recorded history. Although the date is said, through modern investigation, to contain
male hormone, it has been and is used, successfully, by both men and women to ensure
complete sexual development. Men and women, both, use Saw Palmetto to develop their
proper proportions and functions. In women, continued use of Saw Palmetto, in about 60%
of cases of underdevelopment, does produce increased breast size. Of the other 40%, 20%
show no change, and 20% show increased aggression with no change of breast size. For men,
Saw Palmetto rebuilds shriveled testicles and corrects associated disorders. For women,
Saw Palmetto rebuilds diminished ovaries. For both sexes, Saw Palmetto produces solid flesh
weight and increased strength without fat. This is of special interest also, to body builders
and athletes, both men and women. French researchers report: Saw Palmetto prevents male
pattern baldness. The isolated cause is stated to be the overproduction of a male hormone,
dihydrotestosterone, in the areas of the scrotum and scalp. Saw Palmetto balances this out
and the hair is retained. Saw Palmetto can be given in cases of convalescence, where the
person is wasting away, to put flesh back on the bones for successful recuperation.
(Combines well with Barberry. SEE: BARBERRY).
DOSAGE: 30 to 40 drops, three times per day. For men threatened with male pattern
baldness, take 30 to 40 drops, by mouth, three times per day, and once per day, rub
Saw Palmetto into the inner thighs and into the scalp in amounts needed to cover the area.
For women, take 20 to 40 drops, three times per day internally, and once per day, apply to
both breasts. Athletes, 30 to 50 drops, four times per day.
SCARLET PIMPERNEL
Anagallis arvensis
PROPERTIES AND USES: Digestaid, gas and bloating.
COMMON NAMES: Red Chickweed, Red Pimpernel, Weather-Glass, Poor Man's Weather
Glass, Shepherd's Weather-Glass.
221
BODILY INFLUENCES: In appearance, much like

that of chickweed, but with reddish colored flowers.
Also known as poor man's weather glass or barometer,
as the flowers are said to close when rain is
approaching. The plant actively digests raw meat.
Powerful and effective digestaid. Use to prevent gas
and bloating and get more than just carbohydrates
from your food. Scarlet Pimpernel — Anagallis arvensis
DOSAGE: 10 to 20 drops per meal, or 40 drops if
you "munch a bunch."
SCULLCAP
Scutellaria lateriflora
PROPERTIES AND USES: Nervine, calms and

repairs nerves, hyperactivity, antispasmodic,
antivenomous, insomnia, antiviral.
COMMON NAMES: Mad-dog Scullcap, Mad
Dogwood, Pimpemal, Madweed, Helmet Flower,
Blue Scullcap, Skullcap.
PARTS USED: Dried herb.

Scullcap - Scutellaria lateriflora
I BODILY INFLUENCES: Wherever a person
I sees the suffering of hypertension or stress,
Scullcap should be thought of at once, to ease the physical effects. Scullcap does not produce
a zombie-like effect as drugs often do. Scullcap works to normalize activity and prevent
hyperactivity. Concentration is possible once again.
It has been used for treating the bites of mad dogs.
From this the determination of this herb once called a 4 ' -
Mad-dog Scullcap, can be seen. It is not necessary to

have hydrophobia to use Scullcap to calm the nerves.
In fact, a highly desirable side effect from long-term .
t V4cii
use is repair of the nervous system itself. Nervous
twitches and nervous irritation are a specialty of _ 4, Y Al I
Scullcap. Epilepsy, convulsions and shaking, poisonous

insect bites and snakebites have all been remedied 11b•
by use of Scullcap. The Dispensatory of the United
,
States highly recommends its use on the authority of
Dr. Cleaveland and others as a treatment for delirium Scullcap - Scutellaria lateriflora
tremens (alcoholic hallucinations). He indicates that he Photograph by Dr. Eugene C. Watkins
prefers it to all other nervines or antispasmodics except
where an immediate effect is desirable. For those who suffer from insomnia, persistent use of
Scullcap should definitely be considered.
222
DOSAGE: 10 to 40 drops three to four times per day or as needed for sleeping.
SENNA
Cassia acutifolia
PROPERTIES AND USES: Bowel cleaner-

regularity, magnesium source.
COMMON NAMES: Senna.
PARTS USED: Leaves.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Senna is an effective

flush to clean out the bowels. It relies, for its
main function, on the elaborate use of water,
which it draws to itself for the purpose of flushing out the 25 feet of the alimentary canal,
known as the small and large intestines. This ability is most likely due to a group of
anthracene (vegetable detergents) compounds, that have been identified by modern
investigation, which occur when the leaves are dried. Used as a frequent and highly effective
home remedy by many pioneer and farming families. At the first sign of any kind of sickness,
such as a cold or flu, they used their "See-nee tea." The idea was to clean out the poisons,
which are the source of the sickness. And it was often very effective for this purpose, as well
as many other undefined reasons for feeling sick. Although Senna contains a generous supply
of the mineral magnesium for calming cramping muscles, Senna was usually given with
Ginger or Fennel to provide more comfort by rapidly expelling the gas associated with
cleaning.
DOSAGE: For daily maintenance, 40 to 80 drops each evening. For cleansing put two or
three teaspoons and 40 to 80 drops of Ginger or Fennel in a little fruit juice for flavoring, and
drink this. Then, follow this up by drinking two large glasses of water. If needed to continue
to expel gas, repeat the Ginger or Fennel drops.
SHEEP SORREL

• "
COMMON NAMES: Common Field Sorrel,
Common Sorrel, Red Top Sorrel, Field Sorrel.
14.'1% Vfili
Sheep Sorrel - Rumex acetosella PARTS USED: Whole herb.
I BODILY INFLUENCES: The Shaker
religious community of the U.S. puts forth as one of their principles, the concept of health
223
as being normal and illness as being abnormal. Part of their search for health includes the
knowledge of how to use Sheep Sorrel to prevent scurvy. Scurvy, as we know today, is
a potentially fatal disease caused by a deficiency of a vitamin called Vitamin C. The effects
caused by scurvy are very similar to what happens in the case of advanced age where
deterioration of the body takes place and death ensues. When it was first used by the
Shakers, they, and other people, had never heard of vitamins. Yet, they knew Sheep Sorrel
prevented scurvy. They also used it to cure scrofula (glandular swellings), skin diseases,
boils (with external applications), and, in extract form, to cure cancers and tumors. Here is
a plant, which combines the unique features of combating the ravages of aging and reverses
the condition of "bad cells." It is understandable that many people enjoy making Sheep Sorrel
a part of their daily supplemental program.
DOSAGE: 40 drops, three times per day. In times of crisis, as with boils and swellings,
40 to 80 drops hourly while awake. If "bad cells" in the body, then one tablespoon, three
times per day. For an external application: Apply to the skin of the affected area one after
the other.
1. VITAMIN E from 100 or 400 i.u. capsules.

2. HERBAL ADJ.
3. OIL OF CAJEPUT
Then soak a single layer of cheesecloth or absorbent gauze with Sheep Sorrel. Place the cloth
over the area. Lay a piece of plastic sandwich wrap over this, cover with another cloth and fix
in place. Leave on overnight, each night, until the area is corrected. In the morning, remove
and discard the application (never reuse the application). Wash the area and allow to dry. If
needed, a daytime application, in the same manner, can be done to speed the healing process.
SHEPHERD'S PURSE
Capsella bursa pastoris, Medik.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Stops bleeding, blood

in urine or and stool, diarrhea, kidneys and urinary
system, stops bleeding after delivery, bent penis.
COMMON NAMES: Cocowort, Pick Pocket,

Pick Purse, Toywort, Poor Man's Pharmacetty,
St. James Weed.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Takes its name from the

shape of its miniature seedpod, as it is shaped like a
drawstring purse a shepherd traditionally wears.
Astringent, (stops unnatural bleeding). For kidney
discomfort, blood in urine, corrects bladder
disorders, stops bleeding after childbirth; bleeding
from lungs, colon bleeding, and hemorrhoid bleeding are corrected. Stops diarrhea.
224
DOSAGE: For maintenance, 10 drops, twice per day. For crisis, 20 to 40 drops, every hour
while awake, with a cup of water. Externally, apply over area continuously, as needed, until
bleeding stops and or drink one teaspoonful in a cup of water, three times per day.
SIBERIAN GINSENG
Hemidesmus indicus
PROPERTIES AND USES: Stress, nutrition for adrenal glands, high blood pressure, low
blood pressure, high blood sugar, low blood sugar, energy, stamina, reproductive support, jet
lag (crossing time zones rapidly).
COMMON NAMES: Survival Root, India Root.
PARTS USED: Dried root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: For millennia Ginseng has been relied upon for energy and
combating stress. Many different plants are sold under the name of "Ginseng" or "Siberian
Ginseng." One of the finest and not the most expensive comes from India. Perhaps if it were
more widely known and cost more, more would be heard about it. At any rate, this marvelous
Ginseng, from India does not have to remain a secret. Try it and form your own opinion.
Speaking of stress, you may have noticed the stresses of modem life are incredible at times.
Until such time as people cease to be wolves to each other and we can appreciate a more
convenient but rapid pace of life, we can use some support. Siberian Ginseng helps to
compensate for constant change. A stronger nervous system and well-nourished adrenal
glands (a gland on top of each kidney, which can make about two dozen different anti-stress
hormones) do much to meet the challenge of life. If the adrenal glands are not working well
and the door to the garage sticks we may sit down next to the house and cry about it. If
however the adrenal glands are well-supplied with the building blocks for anti-stress
hormones, we may just decide to tear the garage door off its hinges and then do it. After all,
why let a garage door bully you. In the case of an illness where it seems too much effort to
even walk across the room, rather than give up, try Siberian Ginseng. If you must lose sleep
and/or extra demands are placed on your shoulders, try Siberian Ginseng. Then see if you
don't feel like going bear hunting with a handle whip and a chair. Crossing time zones by
aircraft can upset the body rhythms especially when the night was much too short in the air
and when you land the people there are already having lunch. Then it is Siberian Ginseng
time. When suffering from the stress of a cold, hay fever, asthma, blood pressure problems,
monthly upsets, poor diet, long hours, desert heat or winter conditions, convalescence,
operations, injuries, teenagers, tax collectors, competition or you name it, try Siberian
Ginseng and get back to the top of things. Athletes seeking peak performance and body
builders can safely rely on Siberian Ginseng to provide a competitive advantage in training,
performance and development.
DOSAGE: Maintenance and stress maintenance, 20 to 40 drops daily as needed. If in

competition 20 to 40 drops three times per day. If serious illness, one teaspoonful three
to four times per day.

Skunk Cabbage - ktodes foetidus
Photograph by Barbara Jacobs I BODILY INFLUENCES: Holding incredibly tight to the

I earth of the swamp mire, is this prize for embattled nerves.
Skunk Cabbage ventures forth in the cold, early
spring swamp for its time to bloom. Over the whole
area in which the Skunk Cabbage plants group and
claim for their habitat there is the faint, but
distinctive, odor of skunk. This aroma is just the
scent, which attracts pollinators to its flowers. The
survival strength of Skunk Cabbage is so
concentrated, that it can be seen blooming with the
ground still frozen at the tip of its single large top
root. Its virtues, provided for our use, are the
correction of anxiety, epilepsy and Parkinson's
Dis-ease, (an uncontrollable shaking disorder of the
nervous system). Useful allay for spasms of hay fever, nerve disorders and lung afflictions
(including tuberculosis). Rub on tender spots of a"sore head" (suture line of the skull).
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops following meals, and or anytime an attack of nerves occurs.

Apply, as needed, to sore spots on the head to realign the bony plates of the skull so that the
brain functions properly.
SLIPPERY ELM
Ulmus fulva, Mich.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Mumps, canker sores, sore throat, radiation poisoning, niacin
source, easy to digest nutrition, baffling disorders.
COMMON NAMES: Red Elm, Indian Elm, Sweet Elm, American Elm, British Tea
(the leaves).
PARTS USED: Bark.
226
BODILY INFLUENCES: Nutritive, soothing, coats; heals even bedsores when powder is
applied externally. Coats sore throats, and heals internal ulcers wherever they may be in the
digestive tract or intestines. Excellent food for people who "can't eat anything." Slippery Elm
corrects burning irritations of the female tract,
enlarged prostate, painful testicles, remedies 4. 4
4
mumps (painful, inflammatory, contagious thk
viral "dis-ease" of the salivary glands) and
soothes the bowel. Slippery Elm also takes ,„,14erk
another kind of "burning" out of the body and
protects it against radiation. Slippery Elm is a
good source for the B-Vitamins, Thiamine,
Riboflavin and Niacin (B-1, B-2 and B-3). ,
DOSAGE: 40 drops to one tablespoon, three
times per day, depending on the severity of the
case. 20 drops per day after 7th month of
pregnancy to aid easy delivery. For sore
throat, let drops trickle down the throat
throughout the day as needed. If mumps
occur in adulthood, for the man the condition
can lead to sterility, thus, the urgency of
taking measures to correct a condition that in
a child might not seem as great in importance.
One tablespoon of the extract, four times
per day, and 30 to 40 drops of Black Cohosh,
internally, three times per day, and apply
a similar amount of Black Cohosh to the
swollen areas or the salivary glands, hourly, until better. In children, one teaspoon
of Slippery Elm, three times per day, and apply Black Cohosh in a similar manner.
To remove radiation, one teaspoon to one tablespoon, one to three times per day.
To protect against radiation accumulation, one teaspoon per day.
SOLOMON'S SEAL

BODILY INFLUENCES: (For External

Use Only) This herb is used for bumps,
bruises and acne.
DOSAGE: Apply externally as needed.
227
SOW THISTLE
Sonchus oleraceus
PROPERTIES AND USES: Stress, energy.
COMMON NAMES: Musk Thistle, Hare Thistle,

Rabbit Thistle, Sharp Sow.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Our American Native

peoples have been able to learn much and teach us
much by their observation of wild animals. It was
observed that the hare (rabbit), in desperation,
while being wonied by wolves or foxes, has often
been observed to snatch a mouthful of this plant in
mid-leap, during full flight, to get the extra burst
of energy necessary to evade its tormentors. This
is an emergency energy source for quick pick-me-
ups with no harmful aftereffects. Non-addictive,
pure energy. (Combines well with Siberian Ginseng, SEE: SIBERIAN GINSENG).
DOSAGE: 10 to 40 drops as often as needed.
SPIKENARD
A ralia racemosa
PROPERTIES AND USES: Acne, blood

cleaner, gout, reduce uric acid from stress.
COMMON NAMES: American Spikenard,

Pettymorrel, Life of Man, Spignet, Indian Root,
Aralia Bark.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Spikenard is a

member of the Ginseng family of plants and
part of Native American Indian medicine. One
of its most important properties is in the area of
purifying the blood. This alleviates many forms
of acne conditions. Spikenard reduces uric acid
build up, which can result in muscular
discomfort, sore joints and gout. Spikenard is
taken during the last three months of pregnancy, and in difficult cases, the last six months of
pregnancy, to shorten labor and provide for an easier process of delivery. The further virtues
of Spikenard lie in its value as a remedy for cough and chest complaints to cut loose
228
congestive mucus. Spikenard's proof as a time-honored old workhorse, is in its inclusion in

so many cough remedies both ancient and modern.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops, three times per day for blood purification. 80 drops per day if
pregnant. In cases of muscular discomfort, sore joints or gout, 80 drops, three times per day.
Additionally, rub into affected areas, in quantities needed to cover the area, three times per
day. If cough or chest complaints, 40 drops hourly, while awake, until relief; also rub
liberally into chest area and cover up to sweat it out and break congestive mucus loose.
SPIRULINA
Spirulina arthospira
PROPERTIES AND USES: Radiation poisoning, radiation protection, Vitamin A source,

Vitamin B-Complex source, niacin source, Vitamins B-1 and B-12, magnesium source,
protein source, weight reduction.
COMMON NAMES: Spirulina.
BODILY INFLUENCES: (Spy'-roo-leen-ah) Is a protein and vitamin source and much

more. The group of water plants known as algae gives us this plant. Spirulina is a very
nutritious, tiny, aquatic plant, which prefers an alkaline water (anti-acid) environment.
Spirulina is especially appreciated for its enormous agricultural potential, in that it can
produce up to 20 times the yield of soybeans, in the same amount of space. From a nutritional
point of view, its high quality protein content of 60% to 70%, a high vegetable iron and
magnesium content, the unsaturated, essential fatty acids of gamma-linolenic, linoleic and
arachidonic, a rich source of chlorophyll, and an abundant supply of growth elements for new
cellular life, RNA and DNA, as well as a reliable vegetable source of Vitamins A, B-1, B-2,
Niacin and B-12, make this a very valuable plant with which to properly nourish ourselves.
Spirulina protects against radiation and helps us rid ourselves of it. Spirulina also helps out
with the nervous system, so we maintain our good humor. When a person wishes to maintain
proper health or reduce weight by reduced food intake, Spirulina can help satisfy nutritionally
and correct deficiencies, without filling a person up on empty calories and carbohydrates.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops per meal. If used as a dietary supplement at a meal lacking

protein, or to correct deficiencies of nutrients given above, then one teaspoon three times per
day.
SPRING VIOLET
Viola Odorata L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Stubborn skin problems, ears and throat, headache.
229
COMMON NAMES: Sweet European Violet, Violet Leaves, Violet Flowers, Sweet-scented-
Violet, Sweet Violet.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Both leaves and flowers are active. A specific for ear
disturbances and has a soothing effect on inflamed surfaces. For headache, saturate a cotton
cloth (cheese cloth or absorbent gauze)
and apply to the back of the neck,
persistently, until discomfort lifts. TB
(Tuberculosis) of the skin and eczema
yield to the corrective properties of
violets. Since ancient times, cancerous
growths, especially of the throat and
tongue, are consistently reported to be
dissolved.
DOSAGE: For the ear (always work on

both ears as they are sympathetic), swab
the ear canal with Vitamin E oil from 100
or 400 i.u. capsules, then insert a cotton
ball saturated with Spring Violet Extract.
Leave in overnight and repeat the
procedure for daytime. This process acts
as a time-release of constant soothing and healing qualities. The extract may appear hot at
first, but this soon abates. Internally, 40 drops to one tablespoon in a cup of water. Sip
slowly, four times per day, or as needed for hoarseness.
SQUAW VINE SEE: PARTRIDGE BERRY
STILLINGIA
Stillingia sylvantica, L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Lymphatic problems, skin disorders, syphilis, pancreatic

digestaid, cystic fibrosis (pancreas disorder).
COMMON NAMES: Silver Leaf Queen's Root, Queen's Delight, Yaw Root.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Dr. Thomas Young Simons in a published paper for the
American Medical Recorder described Stillingia as," a valuable, alternative remedy in
syphilis afflictions, and others ordinarily requiring the use of mercury." It is comforting
to note that the orthodox medical profession has indeed found an alternative to mercury,
a deadly poison. Stillingia combines well with Prickly Ash and Sarsaparilla. Wherever
engorged lymphatics are sluggish in flow, Stillingia can be called upon to digest out the
morbid matter, which suppresses its flow. Exercises highly desirable conditions on the
230
digestive glands and digestive organs so that they secrete (cause to flow) their normal
fluids. This is a highly desirable condition, as it also works on other glands of the body
and the lymphatics. It is a remedy for primary and secondary syphilis conditions, especially
when they affect the skeletal and facial bones. Croup remedy (respiratory infection with
alarming labored rasping sounds when breathing), rub on chest and back and wrap up warm.
(For this use, Stillingia is often combined with Oil of Cajeput. See: Oil of Cajeput). Stillingia
is held by some herbalists to be the remedy for cystic fibrosis (pancreas malfunction in
digestion that usually leads to death by the age of twenty unless a proper program of care can
be established and maintained). Of special interest is the work done with cystic fibrosis by
LaDean Griffin (American herbal practitioner of distinction), where she notes the restoration
of the pancreatic digestive function is achieved by the use of Stillingia. Noted from this work
is that a key for body function is the ability to digest not only food, but to digest out as well,
choking waste from the body. All natural practitioners will be well advised to see to it that
their consultees can digest. For this purpose Juniper Berries, Ginger, Gentian, and Stillingia
are good reliable choices.
DOSAGE: 20 to 40 drops after meals. For crisis condition of croup, 20 to 40 drops hourly.
NOTE: See: special instructions at the beginning of this work for DOSAGES to children and
babies.

Knob Root, Horse Balm, Knot Root.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: To break up and dissolve stones in kidneys and bladder, as

well as waste mineral accumulations of circulatory and heart valves, Stone Root finds some
of its greatest service. At the same time, a general flush of the blood stream and urinary
tract is required so that Stone Root can do its job properly. Drink six to eight glasses of
GREEN DRINK (SEE: GREEN DRINK) or spring water per day, while taking 80 drops,
three times per day, of the extract. To dissolve kidney and bladder stones, or stone
accumulation in the heart valves, including those caused by uric acid accumulations,
231
Stone Root can be also be used externally. Apply Vitamin E from 100 or 400 i.u. capsules
to the skin in the area to prevent irritation and to make oxygen more efficient. Then apply
Arnica and then Herbal ADJ. (Herbal Adjustment, SEE: HERBAL ADJ.) to the same area,
to remove physical shock and increase circulation.
Next, soak a single layer of cheese cloth or Agompw.

application procedure for the daytime. Continue

until all is corrected. Although seldom necessary, if
a stone should start to slide during the process of ,
dissolving in the urinary tract, take one tablespoon

of Marshmallow Root, internally, to ease its
passing. The service of this valuable root does not
stop with this. Stone Root is also successfully •
employed to reduce swelling and discomfort of

hemorrhoids, as well as correcting them. In this
instance, 80 drops, three times per day, is taken Photograph by Barbara Jacobs
internally, and a gentle bowel maintenance program

is used to prevent irritation and straining. Persist until the problem is handled. Two weeks
often shows a marked improvement in hemorrhoid problems. (See: Cascara Sagrada,
C.C.E.-W and Buckthorn).
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops, three times per day, and as given above.

in creation, as well as blood purifying, especially for eczema and
healthy skin. Excellent general tonic for entire system. Prevents night sweats. Strengthens
weak intestines. Observe the eye and see if the autonomic nerve wreath is too far away from
232
the pupil or just a thin weak line. This wreath reveals the condition of the involuntary
nervous system and the shape and condition of the colon (large intestine). Its normal position
is about one third of the way from the pupil to the edge of the iris (blue or brown portion of
the eye with the pupil in the center). If the wreath is too far from the pupil, then use
Strawberry Leaf. A remedy for greatly reducing blood pressure.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops, on or under the tongue, following meals.
SUNDEW
Drosera rotundifolia, L
PROPERTIES AND USES: Sundew lends us its

digestive power to ensure we can digest properly.
COMMON NAMES: Long-leaved Sundew,

Round-leaved Sundew, Dew Plant, Lustwort,
Youth-wort, Long Sundew.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Sundew is a tiny plant

that lives in places known as bogs and eats animals to obtain much of its nourishment. A bog
is an acid pond or "swampy" area so filled with naturally preserved vegetation that, many
times, you can walk on it; something like walking on a water bed, which, however, may
break through without much warning. The Sundew plant has learned to live on the bog
surface and to eat animals because there are very few available nutrients in the bog "soil."
An advantage of this behavior is that not as many other plants can compete with Sundew.
Little Sundew lures little animals to its sticky flowers with nectar and sweet scent. In this
manner, Sundew captures its prey, holds it fast and then dissolves it with its powerful
digestive enzymes. Many people enjoy eating meat too, but they do not have, or no longer
have, the digestive enzymes to properly do so and get into digestive trouble. Sundew lends
us its digestive power to ensure we can digest properly. A principle of Natural Medicine says:
regardless of what is wrong with you, if you can get the digestion working, you'll probably
make it just fine.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops, or more, with each meal, as needed, depending on the size of the
meal and what was eaten.
SUNFLOWER SEED
Helianthus annus
PROPERTIES AND USES: Arthritis, Vitamin D-Complex.
COMMON NAMES: Garden Sunflower, Common Sunflower, Comb Flower, Wild

Sunflower, English Mosa (Prepared Pith).
PARTS USED: Seed.
233
BODILY INFLUENCES: In all the vegetable Kingdom, the seeds of the Sunflower stand
out as the only readily reliable and available
vegetable source of non-harmful Vitamin D.
Sunflowers stand tall, with their heads following
the path of the sun across the sky each day, as they 11161,"
411
manufacture their oils and Vitamin D with sun Ay
energy. They perform wonderfully as solar -
collectors and, moreover, as a source of buoyant
cheerfulness. It is doubtful that anyone can stand •
qv-44
viewing a field of sunflowers in full bloom
(the flowers all face the same direction and look
like they were all planted to face in the same
Sunflowers - Helianthus annus
direction) and remain depressed for very long.
We know, for bones to develop properly and be
maintained properly throughout adulthood,
Vitamin D is a necessity. Vitamin D, working with the glands at the base of the neck and
above the chest, known as the parathyroids, holds the mineral calcium in the right places in
the body. This provides for steady nerves, strong healthy bones - at any age, healthy skin,
proper clotting of blood and a regular heartbeat, as well as preventing muscular cramping and
cold sweats. Natural Vitamin D does not dissolve in water. It forms from oil and dissolves in
oil. The absorption of Vitamin D from Sunflower seeds is assisted by their own content of
light natural oils in which the Vitamin D is formed. Enjoy this good tasting treat from the
sun, and Sunflowers, and enjoy the good health it brings.
DOSAGE: For maintenance of good health, 20 to 40 drops per meal. For more severe cases,
40 to 80 drops per meal.
SUTHERLANDIA
Sutherlandia frutescens
PROPERTIES AND USES: Improves the

workings of the immune system (bone marrow,
thymus gland, liver, lymph nodes, spleen and other
parts of the body). It assists the body to root out and
clean out viruses wherever they may be in the body,
no matter how long they have been at their
destructive work.
COMMON NAMES: Cancer Bush, Kankerbos,

Belbos, Bitterblaar, Gansies.
PARTS USED: A medium sized shrub with green

leaves and bright red flowers. Parts used are above
the ground: leaves, green stems, flowers and seeds
with pods.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The desert herb Sutherlandia has the scientific name of
Sutherlandia frutescens. Sutherlandia seems to be an herb which mainly improves the
234
workings of the immune system (bone marrow, thymus gland, liver, lymph nodes, spleen
and other parts of the body). It assists the body to root out and clean out viruses wherever
they may be in the body, no matter how long they have been at their destructive work. What
is surprising is just how many problems may be caused or aggravated by viruses and their
poisons.
WHAT IT WORKS ON: Once body cells are weakened by something such as poor diet,
poor bowel functions, harmful medications, emotional upsets, overwork, or other types of
"stress" (stress = anything that threatens your survival), "dis-ease" organisms can move in to
work their mischief. One of those "dis-ease" causing organisms is known as a virus. It is
smaller than a germ, fungus or parasite. It takes over the machinery of a living body cell,
perverts it and makes poisons. The virus makes that body cell sick, then multiplies itself
inside the infected cell and then those offspring go off to invade other cells and so on. Unless
something is done, this goes on and on until disaster results. The herb from the desert areas of
South Africa known as Sutherlandia reverses this destructive process. The mischief caused
by viruses and their poisons can be unraveled and corrected. Sutherlandia also works on the
tumor causing viruses called retroviruses.
WHAT TO EXPECT: Should you choose to use Sutherlandia there may be a few "bumps in
the road" to recovery, so to speak. It takes you back through the many past problems the body
has had and you repair them as you go. But, wouldn't it be worth it to develop an immune
system that viruses just bounce off of? It would be great to get back to original condition
again wouldn't it? It is a pretty tall order to build a strong immune system these days. This is
especially true if you have lived for a while and your body has gone through some damaging
battles and collected some "junk." If the body has "walled off" areas of struggle in the past,
these may be cleaned out in the process of restoring the immune system. Sutherlandia acts as
an adaptive to help one cope with anxiety and depression.
When you see the number of conditions that have been corrected by Sutherlandia, you
wonder if viruses were mixed into the cause of most all of these ills.
FOLK MEDICINE USE FOR SUTHERLANDIA COLLECTED SINCE VERY EARLY

TIMES UP TO THE PRESENT. TAKE A LOOK.
• Indigestion, poor appetite, ulcers of stomach and esophagus, painful gas blockages, liver
conditions, diarrhea, diabetes, cancer of the pancreas and other cancers.
• Colds, flu, asthma, chronic bronchitis and tuberculosis.
• Varicose veins, hemorrhoids and heart failure.
• Swellings, backache, muscle ache, kidney and urinary tract infection and joint
discomfort.
• Anxiety and depression.
• Chicken pox, the deadly world-wide flu epidemic of 1918 and conditions where the
body's immune system is fighting good cells too instead of only enemy cells as in the
case of:
• AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) and HIV (Human Immunodeficiency
Virus).
WHY YOU SHOULD CONSIDER TAKING A FEW OTHER HERBS AS WELL:

During the time Sutherlandia is working, it helps to have a poison antidote working
along with it. For this reason we have suggested some VIRGINIA SNAKE ROOT or
235
BLACK COHOSH. You will also want to make sure you are having regular bowel
movements to eliminate the poisons that are being cleaned out by Sutherlandia. For this
reason we suggest some CASCARA SAGRADA or C.C.E.-W. Please understand it is also
vital to have a diet rich in high quality protein so Sutherlandia can do its job properly. The
white blood cells made in the bone marrow and those in the lymph nodes, as well as the
interferon made by the liver to fight viruses all require protein to make them. For this reason
we have included BEE POLLEN in the combination.
DOSAGE: SUTHERLANDIA is not candy. You can only go so fast when you set out to
unravel all of the ills of the past caused by viruses and repair them as you go along.
Experience has shown 3 to 10 drops with meals can be a pretty good pace unless advised
otherwise by your health care practitioner.
EXTERNAL USE: Apply to troubled area(s), enough to cover the area each day, until the
problem is resolved.
SWEET ROOT
Acorus calamus
PROPERTIES AND USES: Cancer disorders,

tumors and prevention, digestaid, build immunity,
prevent flu, allergies.
COMMON NAMES: Calamus Root, Grass

Myrtle, Myrtle Flag, Sweet Myrtle, Sea Sedge,
Sweet Cane, Sweet Grass, Sweet Rush, Sweet Sedge.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: This beautiful, little,

erect-standing, yellow-flowered, water-loving plant
has helped the most helpless of stomach and
intestinal cases. Regular daily use of Sweet Root
builds immunity; especially against the flu. Where
sickness of known or unknown origin had reduced
the body to skin and bones and a person could not gain weight back, Sweet Root has worked
miracles. If frostbite, cover the area with Sweet Root extract and alternate warm, hot and cool
cloths until circulation returns. Its action is especially centered on normal function of
pancreas, spleen, gallbladder, liver, stomach, and intestinal tract. Sweet Root proves the old
rule: If you can just get them digesting their food again (good food, not junk food), they can
get well regardless of how hopeless it looks. Many people can no longer digest grains,
especially wheat. They eat their wheat bread or pasta or cereal and then it eats them. The
lining of the intestines is dissolved. They become allergic, experience diarrhea and or terrible
headaches and pains. Sweet Root corrects this. Sweet Root cleans and repairs the organs of
digestion, correcting for too much or not enough stomach acid. Then a person starts
absorbing minerals and vitamins - the stomach is a stomach again. Tumors, cancers and
swellings disappear; even cancers of the lung (here, additionally, Yarrow is also taken at the
236
rate of 40 drops, three times per day). The pancreas, gallbladder, liver and small intestine
digest the proteins needed for repair and regaining of weight and strength and a sparkle can
be seen in the eyes. For serious conditions, take 40 drops, three times per day.
DOSAGE: Start with 10 drops per meal and gradually work up to 40 drops per meal, if
needed. Sweet Root not only digests our food, it digests chronic accumulated "debris" out
of the body. So, start slowly and use with a good bowel program (See: Cascara Sagrada,
C.C.E.-W and Buckthorn) to remove this chronic "debris." By using a good bowel program,
wastes are removed more frequently (two, and preferably, three times per day). This prevents
re-absorption of wastes being cleaned out, and prevents "sick" feeling. You will note a
pleasant difference with the digestion. To build immunity 40 drops per day.
TANSY
Tanacetum vulgare, L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Kill parasites,

duodenal ulcers, bruises and freckles,
heart palpitations, brings on period.
COMMON NAMES: Hindhell, Common

Tansy (tanacetum crispurn), Double Tansy,
or Double Flowered Tansy.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Also known as

"Shoo-Fly," was grown next to windows in
early America, before the invention of screen wire, to keep insects out of the dwelling.
Indeed, it does "shoo" away "bugs" of many kinds. Apparently, the smell, while pleasant to
most people in general, just about gags most "bugs." When taken internally, by people, it
does kill parasites. Folk medicine use, of long standing in Russia, employs Tansy for
duodenal ulcers (an ulcer of the first 12 inches of the
small intestine, a most sensitive area) to repair them. In
the original thirteen colonies of the United States, Tansy
was in common usage, instead of today's "pill," to prevent ' -

highly recommends Tansy for heart trouble and to correct heart palpitations (irregular and
rapid beats of the heart), which we may consider sound advice.
DOSAGE: To bring on menstruation, 20 to 40 drops three times per day. Do not take if
pregnancy is desired. For the heart, 10 to 20 drops after meals. For a corrective tonic, 10 to
237
20 drops after meals. If parasites, take a bowel cleaner and fast for one day. (The evening of
the full moon is the best time to take Tansy, as parasites are most active and easily
dispatched). That evening, one teaspoon is taken in a glass of water, along with a good bowel
cleaner. (See: Cascara Sagrada, C.C.E.-W and Buckthorn). Repeat again in one month.
*Jethro Kloss' original book "BACK TO EDEN" is highly recommended for practitioners.
The works of Jethro Moss are those of a highly successful natural practitioner and it is best to
learn directly from the practitioner.
TART CHERRIES EXTRACT
Prunus cheasus sativa montmorencv
PROPERTIES AND USES: Natural source of

Melatonin, helps unclog arteries and also been
shown to be effective in shrinking tumors.
COMMON NAMES: Tart Cherries.
PARTS USED: Cherries.
BODILY INFLUENCES: CHERRIES contain

among other things something called
MELATONIN (mell-uh-tone-in). This is a
substance normally made by a gland deep in the back of the brain known as the pineal
(pi nee-al) gland. The name pineal refers to its shape which is roughly like that of a pine
cone. The gland is even more interesting when you learn that it contains cells similar to the
cells of the human eye. The pineal gland also contains crystals. Medical text books often
refer to these crystals as "brain dust." It is believed by other fields of study that both of these
structures are activated in some way by light. But, lets get back to the discovery of
Melatonin being found in tart cherries. On a physical level, adequate Melatonin has long
been recognized as necessary for a good night's sleep. Even more important, Melatonin is
believed to be responsible for the proper functioning of our biological clocks. These are the
living clocks in the brain that time the process of hormone production in our body, as well as
other functions. This function is fairly important. It is believed that the presence of
Melatonin plays a large role in the aging process of the human body. At this point it may
help to look at turtles for comparison. There are no senior citizen homes, prisons or insane
asylums for turtles. Turtles continue to be active and behave as turtles ought to for the
duration of their life. In addition to that, no matter how long they live they do not stop their
sexual functions nor do they stop producing young for as long as they are alive. This is
probably the way the human body should function too. But, we seem to run out of Melatonin
and therefore cannot continue to produce hormones. We used to be told that only chemists in
laboratories could make the additional Melatonin needed by the brain. This synthetic type of
Melatonin in tablets was supposed to do what natural Melatonin was meant to do. On the
whole, the results were wishful thinking. The Synthetic product was missing something to
govern and ensure its true intended function, in the human body. This is what happens when
pharmacists and chemists presume to improve upon the Creator's gifts and say they are
producing "health foods." Unfortunately, there is always something slightly wrong or more
than slightly wrong with synthetic products. Our greatly educated college and university
238
graduates know many impressive facts, but they fail to understand something very simple.
The "life force" that creates something alive is missing from something that is synthetic.
What our Creator makes is endowed with life, what the chemist makes is dead! The
question is, "which would you rather eat?" But wait there is more. In addition to a
rich supply of Melatonin, Tart Cherries contain compounds called ANTHOCYANINS
(ann-tho-sigh-ann-ins). Natural food researchers, at Michigan State University, have shown
these anthocyanins to work ten times better than aspirin to reduce swelling and discomfort.
These same anthocyanins are also shown to be more effective than Vitamin C and Vitamin E
in preventing plaque "junk" from clogging up our arteries and heart. Want some more good
news? Tart Cherries have also been shown to be extremely effective in shrinking tumors!
There is even more good news Tart Cherries also taste pretty good, a lot like my mother's
cherry pies when I was growing up. The most sought after Tart Cherries are named
Montmorency and grow in the northern "little finger" area of Michigan, known as Traverse
Bay, on Lake Michigan.
DOSAGE: As a natural source of MELATONIN for the conditions listed above take 40
drops to one teaspoonful of the liquid extract Tart Cherries three times per day, depending on
the severity of the condition that needs correcting. To sleep better, be patient, it may take up
to one month before you notice results. Repairing the sleep machinery in the body, may take
that long before it can be activated.

TRUE AMERICAN GINSENG
Panax quinquefolia
PROPERTIES AND USES: Glandular

nourishment, stamina, build immunity, viral
infections, oxygenation, germanium source,
selenium source, longevity.
COMMON NAMES: Sang, American

Ginseng, Ninsin, Grantogen, Ginsing,
Red Berry, Five Fingers Root, Ninsin Root,
Garautogen.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: TRUE

AMERICAN GINSENG (COLLECTED
FROM THE WILD) - Panax quinquefolia, has
been applauded, down through the centuries, as
the magic elixir of life for stamina, well-being and longevity. Its praises and reputation are
legendary, real and earned. As a glandular food, the glands of the body are nourished. It is a
fact that a person could say, if the glands of the body do well, so does the body. In general,
the older the root the better. As the great American Herbalist, Dr. John R. Christopher
eloquently explained," it takes time for Ginseng to gather the strength of the Earth to itself."
It is no secret that the Chinese have preferred our North American Wild Ginseng to theirs
right from the beginning. Apparently, they have this concept, that Ginseng grows best in soil
that has never been disturbed by agriculture or human habitation and so, reaches its complete
potential. In the wild, True American Ginseng has the additional element of being a hardy
wild survivor, which has taken everything adverse environmental conditions can throw at it
and yet survived. This can bring out, and develop, all the survival qualities inherent within
the plant, which can then be passed onto you.
And that is the great advantage over cultivated
varieties of Ginseng. Ginseng has figured
strongly, for millennia, in the Native North
American medicinal plants used by both men
and women for counteracting stress, building
stamina, increasing longevity with health, and
preventing and clearing up a multitude of
different and wide-ranging problems. In recent
times, claims have been established for Ginseng
being used successfully for conditions as
different as rheumatoid arthritis, AIDS,
allergies, high cholesterol, candida yeast
infections, cancer and viral infections. Modern
investigative techniques have revealed one of
the possible reasons why Ginseng can do this. Ginseng contains a reliable natural source of
the rare, and much sought after, trace element of Germanium. Germanium acts by attaching
itself with the available oxygen to increase and normalize cellular and tissue oxygenation.
240
In this way, "the breath of life" can circulate throughout

the body, poisons are neutralized, immunity is increased
and tissues regenerated. Dis-ease conditions are
reversed and prevented. Take each day for its
accumulating effects and life-giving benefits and, in
time, others will marvel at your stamina and well-being.
Obtain this type of Ginseng from a reputable supplier,
pay for the best, get it and enjoy it. Ginseng has earned True American Ginseng Root
its honored position in the herbal world. Panax quinquefolia

DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops per meal, or three times per
day.
TRUE SAFFRON
Crocus sativus

Menopause, dark clots during flow,
baffling disorders, appetite, bloating,
regulate hormones.
COMMON NAMES: Spanish

Saffron, Cake Saffron (pressed),
Autumn Crocus, Hay Saffron,
Loose Saffron.
PARTS USED: Tips of the female

parts of the fall crocus flowers
(stigmas) and the male parts of the
flowers (stamens).
BODILY INFLUENCES: Known as True Saffron to distinguish it from many types of

imitations, and "fools gold" look-alike herbs, that have the same color. The taste is so
distinctive and clean, once this has been experienced, a person will not be fooled by
imitations. Every practitioner should be familiar with its taste. True Saffron is the most
expensive herb-spice currently known. The cost for high quality True Saffron can be as
much, per ounce, as for pure gold. But then, in some conditions, only the best and most
expensive is good enough to do the job. Saffron is much beloved by the Swedish people for
cooking, baking, and flavoring. A few drops in a cup of water turn it a bright sun-yellow. In
the spring, one of the first plants to bloom is the crocus. This is the source of True Saffron.
So hardy is it, at times, it can be seen blooming through the snow. It takes around 70,000
flowers to yield one pound of Saffron. Saffron is the female organ of the flower, very
carefully collected by hand, early in the morning, while the flowers are open. It, obviously,
contains all of the elements of new life and hormones serviceable for normal function of the
female system. This True Saffron is highly prized for all feminine disorders. For dark clotted
losses during menstruation, five drops, four to six times per day. Think Saffron also, for
correction of the following conditions, anxiety, coughs, whooping cough, upset stomach,
241
stomach gas, intestinal gas pains, insomnia, loss of appetite, menopause, gout, and uterine
hemorrhage.
DOSAGE: 10 to 40 drops, four to six times per day. For menopause, if extra assistance is
needed, some women use 40 drops of True Saffron and 40 drops of Yokum (See: Yokum),
one to three times per day.
TURKEY RHUBARB
Rheum palmatum
PROPERTIES AND USES: Acute

diarrhea, constipation, (adaptigen),
hemorrhoids, relaxed digestive
organs, duodenum, dry mouth.
COMMON NAMES: China

Rhubarb, East India Rhubarb.
PARTS USED: Dried rhizome and

root.
BODILY INFLUENCES:
Dr. John R. Christopher's practical
use and popularization of this herb
has led us to, in his words, "A most
valuable and reliable organic friend for stimulating, cleansing, and toning the vital alimentary
(digestive tract) and intestinal areas." Turkey Rhubarb's peculiar ability is that of a laxative
and astringent means it can be used in constipation or diarrhea. The offending material is
rapidly flushed from the body without irritation to the bowel. The bowel is not left in an
overly relaxed or flaccid condition as with commercial laxatives. It is recognized that
diarrhea is a natural action of the body to give itself an enema. The body fluids are lavishly
used to flush out offensive material. This may sound highly incongruent, to give an enema
or to take Turkey Rhubarb if a person has diarrhea, but that is exactly the right thing to
quickly bring an end to the diarrhea. In children and adults with distended or bloated bowel,
Turkey Rhubarb is an exact remedy. It keeps the bowel soft to prevent hemorrhoid irritation.
It also encourages the flow of fluids in the mouth. At the same time, gastric juices and the
flow of bile are highly encouraged, and the all important first 12 inches of the small intestine
(duodenum), can resume its function. The origin of Turkey Rhubarb is the Middle East,
which grants it its name "Turkey."
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops evenings, so it can work overnight. More can be taken, if needed,
to loosen up chronic accumulations of hardened wastes. In times of diarrhea, 40 to 80 drops,
along with 40 to 80 drops of ("All Cells Salts" minerals) to prevent dehydration as the body
cleans itself. Not addictive. Can be taken daily to promote and maintain normal bowel
movements.
242
UNA DE GATO
Unicaria guianensis
Unicaria tormentosa
PROPERTIES AND USES: Arthritis, rheumatism,

cancer, gastritis, irregularities of the female cycle,
build immunity.
COMMON NAMES: Cat's Claw Inner Bark,

Cat's Claw Bark.
PARTS USED: Bark.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Is a Spanish named

herb. Translated, the herb name, Una de Gato
(oon-yuh-day-got-toe), means Claw-of-Cat or, as we would say in English, CAT'S CLAW.
In the remote area of Iquitos, Peru, where Una de Gato is at home, it is very widely used and
depended upon to handle a wide variety of problems, including those of a serious nature.
Una de Gato is the bark of the jungle and highland dwelling vines of the two plant species,
Unicaria quianensis and Unicaria tometosa. These are the only two species represented
throughout South America. The curled projection, or "claw," that the vine puts out to help it
climb into the trees, gives Una de Gato its common name, Cat's Claw. Because of the
remoteness of the area where it is at home, in North America we did not know of its long and
accepted uses until later in the 20th century. Thanks to the American researcher, Nicole
Maxwell, and her over 30 years of dedicated field research and living with and observing the
native use of these and other botanicals, we have first-hand information based on observation
and experience from the jungle areas of Peru regarding the use of Unicaria quianensis and
Unicaria tomentosa. Both are good. The preferred species she recommends as a first choice,
however, is the quianensis. (For further information see: HUNTING FOR MEDICINAL
PLANTS IN AMAZON by Nicole Maxwell, Citadel Press, New York, New York, 1990).
Additionally, German and French sources, and users there, have shared their enthusiastic
results, and simply cannot be silenced in their wholehearted endorsement of the tomentosa
species of Una de Gato. In more enlightened and tolerant areas of the world, such as Peru,
where freedom of speech regarding herbs and Folk Medicine is an accepted and appreciated
fact, sellers of herbs must put the traditional and accepted uses on the side of the herb
package. Unlike North America, where you are not even allowed to claim that an herb is
"high fiber" or "low fat" or "low sodium" without a scientist saying you can, and that after a
very expensive and lengthy process of proof which may cost as much as 200 million dollars
to make such a "sweeping claim."
Here is what is listed in Peru as the Traditional and accepted South American Native Folk
Medicinal uses of Una de Gato.
UNA DE GATO: (Take to correct) ARTHRITIS, RHEUMATISM, CANCER, GASTRITIS,

IRREGULARITIES OF THE FEMALE CYCLE.
From all reports, this is one of the South American Indian's very best arthritis remedies.
Although it is not scientifically accepted, people there use it to get rid of their arthritis,
243
including the type we call rheumatoid arthritis, where the body is actually fighting itself.
Una de Gato is also, especially, noted for its anti-viral properties, tumor dissolving
properties, its effects on cellular regeneration and cardiovascular repair. As in all jungle
areas, one of the things, which must be guarded against is infection. Una de Gato is a potent
immune system builder. This is especially important in conditions described as rheumatoid
arthritis and/or osteoarthritis, where the body is attacking itself, commonly called
autoimmune reactions. Una de Gato reestablishes the proper immune system orientation for
cells that are "true friends" and those that are the actual foes. A strong immune system is
essential to reversing the effects, and prevention, of any kind of disease. Hence, a wide range
of disorders are reported to be corrected by the use of Una de Gato in Peru and Europe. Very
well documented South American medical information shows Una de Gato to be nearly
miraculous in combating cancer, even in advanced stages, where as much as 10% of body
cells are in a state of metastasis. Because of the shared reputation Una de Gato has earned for
itself, no immune problem or cancer is regarded, in Peru, as "incurable."
DOSAGE: 40 drops, three times per day to maintain immunity. For dis-ease conditions listed
above, one teaspoon to one tablespoon three times per day.
NOTES: With the use of Una de Gato, as with any herb, which destroys bad cells, do use a
good bowel management program which produces two, and preferably three, easy and
complete bowel movements per day. In this manner, the wastes and poisons the body is
getting rid of, can be eliminated from the body and nausea is prevented. This allows the body
to clean itself up and to get well. (See: C.C. E.-W, Cleansing-Corrective-Extract, Cascara
Sagrada, Buckthorn). Common sense and good sense, both, demand that you eliminate
anything from the diet and the environment, which is a poison. A good place to start,
regarding what you eat, is any food with any kind of chemical additives such as: chemical
dyes, preservatives, flavor magnifiers, stabilizers, pesticides, herbicides, and the like.
Eliminate junk foods - and you do know what those are.
Scientific evidence published by French researchers in the respected journal "Planta Medica,"
9 December 1982, titled "Alcoloides de l'Unicaria quianensis," shows Una de Gato to contain
the compounds: Rubiaceae, Tetracyclic and Pentacyclic Oxindole alkaloids. Biochemical
analysis of the bioactive alkaloids show them to be comprised of 40% pteropodine,
50% speciophylline, 10% mitraphylline and various phytochemicals, all of which exhibit
in-vitro (in laboratory apparatus) effects of absorbing interest.
UVA URSI
Arctostapitylos uva-ursi
PROPERTIES AND USES: Infections of bladder, antibiotic for the entire urinary system,
chronic gonorrhea, female white mucous discharge, astringent, tonic, kidney gravel.
COMMON NAMES: Bearbeny, Upland Cranberry, Arberry, Mountain Cranberry,

Bear's Grape, Kinnikinnick.
PARTS USED: Leaves.
244
BODILY INFLUENCES: In the American Indian Pharmacopoeia (list of herbal medicines),

we find Uva Ursi listed for what modern doctors
vok
would probably call cystitis (bladder infection) and
nephritis (kidney infection). Both conditions are very -
11,4
prevalent in women today and wreak havoc to prevent
satisfactory sexual function. Uva Ursi is a remedy for
all of these and for chronic gonorrhea. It is a powerful
antibiotic to invaders of the uro-genital (urinary and
reproductive systems). To prevent stones in kidneys 4.
and aid Uva Ursi in performing its function, drink six
-
to eight glasses of liquid per day (i.e., vegetable juice, 11111
herbal tea) or spring water with a small amount of
apple cider vinegar to flavor (three teaspoons to three
Uva Ursi - Arctostaphylos uva-ursi
tablespoons per day). This keeps the urinary tract
alkaline, so stones do not form; Uva Ursi's full
antibiotic qualities can reign supreme. Uva Ursi,
Comsilk and Gravel Root are among the kidneys' best friends. For this invaluable knowledge,
we are deeply indebted to the American Indian.
DOSAGE: 10 to 40 drops three times per day as needed. A glass of (spring) water is taken
each time with Uva Ursi to help the flushing action.
VALERIAN ROOT
Valeriana officinalis, L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Calm nerves,

sleep when tired, heart regulation and repair,
calcium source, studied to make Valium.
COMMON NAMES: Setwall, Vandal Root,

Wild Valerian, Great Wild Valerian.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Not everyone likes,

or appreciates, the smell of Valerian Root, but
many find its scent quite soothing. Interestingly enough some cats love the scent. As an aid to
sleep when you cannot, but must, Valetian Root finds its greatest service. When a person has
gone for many nights without proper rest, 40 to 80 drops in a little juice can provide "blessed
relief." Indeed, for nervous agitation, Valerian Root, with its gentle, proven source of
absorbable vegetable calcium, can be taken on a regular basis during the day as it is also non-
addictive. Valerian Root does not produce side effects of nightmares, or worse, addiction, or
stupor. Unlike the modem synthetic drug Valium, which was modeled on the scientific
information gained by the investigation of Valerian Root, and can cause these unpleasant side
effects. Valerian Root provides a release from tension. Because the heart is slowed and
strengthened, there is also correction for heart palpitations (heart has too many beats and or is
not rhythmic). While doing this, the normal functions of the stomach and intestines to move
245
and secrete fluids are restored, thus providing a most comforting aid to proper digestion and
elimination. If Valerian Root is your herb, then you do indeed have a friend.
DOSAGE: 40 drops after meals, or three to four times per day, as needed. For sleeping,
40 to 80 drops, Y2 hour before bedtime.
VINCA (PERIWINKLE)
Vinca major, Vinca minor
PROPERTIES AND USES: Leukemia,

blood cancer, high blood pressure,
nightmares.
COMMON NAMES: Periwinkle,

Death's Flower, Hundred Eyes.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Its brilliant

blue flowers can be seen blooming at any
time during the growing season, even in
very cool climates. Vinca is a leukemia remedy for many body types. In those body types
where it is the remedy, a marked difference should be noted within the first two weeks of use.
Take at the rate of 40 to 50 drops, three times per day. It is in the leaves that we find Vinca's
healing virtues. Long used as a cure for nightmares and high blood pressure. It is thought that
when a man and wife take the leaves together, it binds them more closely together. Certainly,
if it can relieve nightmares, it may also calm marital stresses. Its name, in Latin, means to
bind closely together. Vinca is rubbed on muscular cramps, and is used to stop internal
bleeding of the nose and mouth.
DOSAGE: Five to ten drops, twice per day, for daily use; increase, if necessary, once you
are used to the effects of Periwinkle. For nose and mouth bleed, 20 to 40 drops all at once
and repeat, as necessary, every one to two hours. For muscular cramping, gently massage in
enough to cover the area and repeat, as necessary, to relax the spasm. For other uses, as given
above.
VIRGINIA SNAKE ROOT
Aristolochia serpentaria, L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Heart regulation and repair, increase arterial flow, fevers, viral
infections, antibiotic, after-effects of immunization, vaccination complications, pneumonia,
poison antidote, venereal disease, baffling disorders, convalescence.
COMMON NAMES: Virginia Snake Root.
PARTS USED: Root.
246
BODILY INFLUENCES: (Aristolochia serpentaria), as it is known scientifically was

hunted almost to extinction by the demand of early U.S. practitioners. Its use was first
learned from the American "Indians" in the often desperate struggle to survive in the "new
world." Persistent rumors of near miraculous recoveries among European settlers treated by
"Indians," proved to have substance in actual fact. Virginia Snake Root was used by U.S.
practitioners with such consuming enthusiasm; even the "Indian" suppliers found it very
difficult to locate new supplies for them. Virginia Snake Root neutralizes poisons of many
kinds, including: snakebites, mosquito bites,
spider bites, bee, wasp and scorpion stings, as L ,01 -Zor
well as poisons that build up through
intemperate living and depravation. When a
person is ill, there are poisons in the body. As
- f. 4
the daily activities of living take place in the •

body, waste material builds up. Add to this, ,
poisons given off from germs, viruses, fungi, al- .1

do,' -
etc., that may be living in the body, also
feeding on this waste. When these poisons -
are not eliminated by the body, they build up

and a person gets sick. Virginia Snake Root
immediately neutralizes these poisons.
(One way to tell if Virginia Snake Root is -
needed, is to take a few drops and see if

you feel better within seconds or minutes).
Virginia Snake Root - Aristolochia serpentaria, L.
In this way, the body gets a reprieve and
gains valuable time to eliminate through
bowel, urine, lungs and skin. At this time, if
needed to assist Virginia Snake Root in its work, give herbs that can increase bowel
movements (See: Cascara Sagrada, C.C.E.-W or Buckthorn), or an enema daily, as needed.
Virginia Snake Root, meanwhile, loosens lung mucus, increases urinary flow and induces
sweating to complete poison elimination. Additionally, herbs can be given to provide
strength and nutrients. (See: Alfalfa Dulse, and liquid Bee Pollen) Then the person gets
well. (A related plant of similar function to Virginia Snake Root, is Black Cohosh).
Virginia Snake Root, thus, has a wide variety of applications with fevers, poisonous bites
and stings. Take 40 to 80 drops at once, internally, and apply liberally to the bite area. Repeat
any time the area starts to hurt. Throat and kidney infections, even where tissue is destroyed,
are corrected. Vital forces and nerves are restored. Arterial flow of blood is increased to the
hands, feet and skin, and the body warms up. The heartbeat is fuller, stronger and blood
circulates better. Here is help, especially for the exhausted and depressed case in the latter
stages of fevers or pneumonia. Convalescence from colds and other recent "flare ups" are
also securely guided to recovery.
DOSAGE: 20 to 40 drops, on or under the tongue, three to four times per day, as needed.
In emergency situations, such as bee, wasp, scorpion stings or spider bites, 40 to 80 drops
immediately, and repeat anytime the area starts to hurt. In snake bites, Y2 to one full oz. is
given immediately, internally, and thereafter, as needed, any time the area starts to hurt, as
well as liberal external applications.

PARTS USED: Root, Bark.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Wahoo is a bitter tonic and sometimes we need that. "Lazy
livers" and constipated gallbladders respond well to its resolute command to "wake up."
Wahoo is a kind of resolvent for the digestive system. As a bitter tonic for the whole system,
it has been effectively employed by herbal practitioners, in small amounts, to perk up the
system. The Native American Winnebago used it to also treat disorders of the uterus; the
Mohican, as a laxative and Meshawakis, as a lotion on the temples and cheek bone area for
the eyes. Its name, Wahoo, means Arrow Wood, in the Dakota language. Its square stem
relates this plant to the mint family.
DOSAGE: 10 to 20 drops after each meal for general use. Externally, rub on the temples and
cheek bones areas, for the eyes, 8 to 10 drops, three to four times per day, to improve eye
function. If liver problem, rub one teaspoon into the liver area, each day, and take with a
good bowel program which produces at least two, and preferably three, bowel movements
per day to push out the wastes loosened up by Wahoo. (See: Cascara Sagrada, C.C.E.-W.
or Buckthorn).
WHEAT GERM

skin care, vision and hearing, Vitamin E-Complex,
CO-Q 10 source, protein source, longevity,
antioxidants, baffling disorders, bones and soft tissue,
cleans out arteries, varicose veins, heart regulation and
repair, nourish eyes and maintain eyesight, prevent
nearsightedness, hormone replacement.
COMMON NAMES: Wheat Germ.

Wheat —Triticum aesti rum
PARTS USED: Sprouting part of the plant.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Contains the entire complex
248
of vitamins known collectively as Vitamin E. Fresh, sweet wheat grain hearts are a prime
source of Vitamin E and protein. Vitamin E is vital for the function of heart and lungs, and
well-known as a life extender. The function of strengthening the longitudinal muscles of
the body is a specialty of this complex of vitamins. Hence, its importance in repairing and
preventing ruptures, and strengthening and/or repairing muscles, such as the heart muscle.
If the eye(s) is crossed then apply Vitamin E liberally to the sides of the nose, under the eyes
and on the temples, three times per day, until the muscle tone is normal and the eye(s) are
held straight in position. There is a fairly well founded theory that the degenerative aging
process is caused by a group of poison oxygen compounds called free radicals. Free radicals
are formed in the body's process of living, and poison the body. It is important to neutralize
them. Free radicals are also put into the environment from manufacturing processes,
insecticides and pesticides on plants and animals used as food, cleaning fluids, chemical
additives to foods and from exposure to x-rays and radiation. Vitamin E neutralizes free
radicals. In this day and time, it makes good sense to use Vitamin E as a daily supplement.
If a person is moving to a mountain environment, it can help greatly, to prevent exhaustion
and a host of problems, to include extra Vitamin E in the diet. It is well established that
Vitamin E prevents near-sightedness in babies, if mother takes sufficient Vitamin E while
pregnant. This is especially important for some Asian societies where whole populations
may have a problem with this dietary deficiency, as evidenced by the too prevalent problem
of myopia (near-sightedness). With regard to normal continuing sexual function and fertility,
Vitamin E is essential for both men and women. For women in later childbearing age, there
is good evidence of preventing chromosomal problems and resulting birth defects, if
ample Vitamin E is taken on a regular basis, and in increased amounts during pregnancy.
Wheat Germ Extract also contains all the natural correlative factors (related supporting
substances) which support Vitamin E Complex in a stabilized form and make it efficient, as
nature intended.
DOSAGE: 40 drops to one teaspoon three times per day, depending on the need. For
troubled areas apply externally as it will oxygenate the areas.

WHITE OAK BARK
Ouercus alba
PROPERTIES AND USES: Antibiotic, fistula

(abnormal tube growth between body parts), prolapsed
(fallen) rectum, prostate, varicose veins, stones, drain
sinuses.
COMMON NAMES: Tanner's bark.
PARTS USED: Leaves, bark.

Oak Tree — Quercus sp.

BODILY INFLUENCES: American Indian knowledge
249
employs White Oak Bark and other types of oak barks for swollen neck and goiter (enlarged
thyroid gland). To correct bloody urine discharge due to ulcerated bladder as well as sinus,
post nasal drip and varicose veins White Oak Bark is employed. White Oak Bark can be
applied externally as well as internally with great benefit. Externally, cover the area with
Vitamin E oil from capsules (100 or 400 i.u. capsules as
they are less sticky and will spread easier). Soak cotton
gauze in the extract and put over area after applying
Vitamin E. Follow that with a plastic wrap and hold in
place with a cloth wrap. White Oak Bark shrinks varicose
veins and hemorrhoids. It is a powerful antibiotic for all -
infections. Its astringent qualities quickly stop diarrhea.

For swollen glands such as prostate or relaxed anus, the
herbalist, Alma Hutchens, reports Oak Bark Tea often
dissolves and remedies dangerous fistulas, such as anal
fistulas (wild, alternate channel from the rectum to the Oak Tree Acorn — Quercus sp.
outside of the body). For this, the method to use is a Photograph by Dr. Eugene C. Watkins
Sitzbad (German word for sitz bath). Prepare the bath by

diluting 40 drops of the extract per cup of fluid for the sitz bath. Stay in this warm water for
15 to 45 minutes daily as needed. Add additional hot water with White Oak Bark Extract as
needed to keep the bath warm. For sinus congestion and post nasal drip, or relaxed throat,
one teaspoonful to 1/2 cup water as a gargle.
DOSAGE: 10 to 40 drops three to four times per day. If sinus problem crisis, 40 drops
hourly until relief.
WHITE POND LILY
Nvmphea odorata, Solond.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Cancer,

tumors, prostate, combats Candida,
yeast problems, aphrodisiac.
COMMON NAMES: White Water

Lily, Cow Cabbage, Toad Lily,
Pond Lily, Water Lily, Water Cabbag,
Sweet Water Lily, Sweet-Scented Lily,
Sweet-Scented Water Lily.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Time

honored remedy, known as "Star-Fallen-In-The-Water" by the Ojibwa "Indians" of North
America. Much appreciated for its beauty as well as its reliable healing properties. Resident
of calm waters, bearing large, delightful, floating, white flowers with golden centers and
producing a captivating perfume described as "brandy-like," hence, its alternative name -
Brandy Bottle. The root is the part used. The taste of the root of White Pond Lily is unique,
warming, slightly dry, and mineral in character. Used to correct all complaints of uterus or
prostate and dissolving all types of cancers and tumors in the area. Recognized as an
250
aphrodisiac (reduces sexual desire for rest and healing), as well as a pain reliever and its
soothing qualities. Excellent to quiet infant diarrhea, ulcers in mouth, inflamed gums and sore
throat. Take internally, and apply directly to troubled areas, as well.
DOSAGE: 10 to 40 drops three times per day. Apply on troubled areas, hourly, as needed.
Use cotton ball soaked with the extract to place in mouth for sore throat or gums.
WHOLE APRICOT
Prunus armenica
PROPERTIES AND USES: Glandular

areas, cancer preventative, Vitamin B-17
source, moles.
COMMON NAMES: Whole Apricot.
PARTS USED: Kernel.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Dr. Ernest J.

Krebs, a noted authority on cancer, has
often stated that if a person eats six to
twelve apricot kernels per day, they will
never have to worry about cancer. He
recommends peach or cherry kernels, as well. Contained within these kernels is a very
small amount of a substance called nitriloside amygdaline (laetrile, Vitamin B-17). It
goes directly to a cancer cell, stings it, and kills it. This is especially true of glandular
cancers, such as the prostate and other glands. The same is true for moles on the skin and
internal tumors. For moles, take Whole Apricot internally and also apply Whole Apricot and
Oil of Cajeput, three times per day, to the area until corrected. There is no fear necessary for
this extremely small amount of cyanide; remember
Vitamin B-12 is also a cyanide compound and is
absolutely essential to life or a person develops a deadly
disease known as pemicious anemia. Head lettuce, as a
further example, contains a very small amount of
opium. Although it is not recommended, head lettuce
does not cause a person to go unconscious or stupefied,
and head lettuce is still eaten. Once you taste apricot
kernels, you can recognize an accentuated almond taste. Ili'
That is the part that kills the cancer cells. It is also Whole Apricot - Prunus armenica
present in almonds, but to a much lesser extent. You Photograph by Barbara Jacobs
may find your body is hungry for this taste and the truly
wonderful effect it has. The safe rule is not to eat any more apricot kernels than you would of
the apricot fruit during a day.
DOSAGE: 10 to 20 drops per day, as a daily maintenance. 40 drops to one tablespoon three
times per day, if cancer in the body. Keep the bowels open to expel the dead, nauseating cells
and poisons with a good bowel program which produces two, and preferably three, bowel
251
movements per day. (See: Cascara Sagrada, C.C.E.-W or Buckthorn). If necessary to quickly
relieve the nausea of this regimen, take, as needed, 10 to 40 drops of a poison antidote such
as Black Cohosh or Virginia Snake Root. Additionally, an enema can be taken. Usually,
within 10 minutes of taking the enema you will feel better. If necessary, repeat the enema.
WILD CHERRY BARK
Prunus virginiana
PROPERTIES AND USES: High blood

pressure, colds, coughs, whooping cough,
breath easier, expel mucus, tuberculosis.
COMMON NAMES: Choke Cherry,

Wild Black Cherry, Black Cherry,
Black Choke, Rum Cherry, Cabinet Cherry.
PARTS USED: Bark.
BODILY INFLUENCES: This widely

distributed tree of North America has an
agreeably bitter, slightly warm, slightly sweet taste. The shared knowledge of the Native
Chippewa Inhabitants of North America did much to bring this gift of nature to our attention.
The inner bark of the Wild Cherry Tree, with all its wild vigor, has and does enjoy wide use,
by many North American Natives, for coughs, colds, whooping cough, bronchitis, asthma,
tuberculosis, daily recurring fevers and to lower high blood pressure. Old-time cough drops
actually used to contain some Wild Cherry Bark and worked really well until they were
gradually cheapened to taste good and became little more than a confection. European settlers
were quick to pick up this valuable information. Jethro Kloss, the beloved American herbal
practitioner of the first half of the 20th century, used Wild Cherry Bark for all these purposes
with great success. He stated outright, that it cures the chronic respiratory condition of
asthma while loosening and expelling old dis-eased mucus from the lungs and respiratory
passages. Wild Cherry Bark's sedative properties calm and soothe lungs, stomach and
intestines. Research shows the inner bark of the Wild Cherry tree contains a vegetable
compound known as hydrocyanic acid. Nature often finds use for minute traces of a
compound known as cyanide, which, in its isolated chemical form, is highly poisonous. In
the case of B-12, a vitamin essential for life, this principle of cyanide construction is found.
This principle is found again in the case of the apricot kernel, which also contains a minute
amount of vegetable cyanide, in this case, to kill cancer cells. The presence of hydrocyanic
acid in Wild Cherry Bark, as an antibiotic, may well account for its success in such infectious
diseases as whooping cough and tuberculosis. Wild Cherry Bark's bitter and astringent
properties find great usefulness in the case of a relaxed stomach and intestines to make them
active again.
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops, hourly while awake, until well. If desired, it can be taken a few
drops at a time and allowed to trickle down the throat for maximum effect. Wild Cherry Bark
Extract can also be rubbed into the throat, chest and back areas. A towel is placed on the
chest and on the back underneath the clothing. Then cover the person with warm bedding.
Use only natural fiber clothing and bedding. Heat and moisture are built up and assist
252
Wild Cherry Bark in breaking up hardened mucus congestion. The towel and warm clothing
also absorb the poisons, which are sweated out. For stomach and intestinal use, 40 to 80
drops, three to four times per day.
WILD LETTUCE
Lactuca elongata
PROPERTIES AND USES: Relief of

pain in association with any disorder
including migraines.
COMMON NAMES: Wild Opium,

Lettuce, Snake Weed, Trumpet Weed,
Snake Bite.
PARTS USED: Leaves.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Is related to

garden lettuce but much stronger in
taste, with a sticky, white, milky sap in
its circulatory system. Wild Lettuce was used, during the U.S. War between the States, by the
South when they could not obtain laudanum (a liquid opium preparation) for relief of pain.
Wild lettuce is not as strong, but does not have the addictive quality or unpleasant after
effects, as does opium. Here, the substitute exceeds the perverted choice as a remedy.
To reverse insomnia due to mental overwork,
Wild Lettuce is the answer. Irritation of the MOW
bronchial tubes, lungs, and a cough where the

person is wasting away, are reversed so the area
can be repaired. Wild Lettuce is often mixed with 1.1.41
Wood Betony for pain and headache relief. •
fk*
(See: Wild Lettuce & Wood Betony
Combination). It is interesting to note that the
leaves of Wild Lettuce often line up in a north-
south direction and earn the common name of wo

electrical and magnetic qualities to calm and r
the nervous system of a person. Certainly, balance the
in this day and time, any plant which can help
alleviate our pains and restore our nerve energies, maw
should be called friend and thus it is with
Wild Lettuce. Wild Lettuce - Lamas sp.
DOSAGE: If insomnia, 30 to 40 drops a half hour I

before bedtime. If necessary, repeat every five minutes, for the next half hour until sleep is
possible. If pain or bronchial irritation, the same as above, but also rub in quantity necessary,
on the chest.
253
WILD LETTUCE & WOOD BETONY
Lactuca elongata & Stachys officinalis
PROPERTIES AND USES: Relief of pain

in association with any disorder including
migraine.
COMMON NAMES: Wild Lettuce, Snake

Weed, Painfree, Prickly Lettuce, Milk
Lettuce, Wood Betony, Lousewort,
Wild Lettuce - Lactuca sp.
Wellprice, Costheal.
PARTS USED: Juice and leaves of

Wild Lettuce and whole herb of Wood Betony.
BODILY INFLUENCES: During the war between

the States, when opiates were not available but pain
relief was needed, Wild Lettuce was the remedy at
hand. Pain relief properties are legend with this
combination and it is not addicting. Wood Betony is
described in Europe, as being effective as a remedy
for no less than 50 to 60 different disorders. The
American Indian recognized 55 real diseases. They
were probably pretty close to the truth and had cures
for all before advent of the white man. Most probably,
this sophisticated analysis rests on the premise that
there are probably only a handful of real root causes
of physical illness. Hence, the suggested use of
Wood Betony in almost any disorder. Wood Betony - Stachys officinalis
DOSAGE: 10 to 40 drops three times per day or
hourly if needed in acute conditions.
WILD ROSE HIPS
Rosa canina
PROPERTIES AND USES: Longevity, baffling

disorders, bones and soft tissue, bumps, bruises and
sprains, convalescence, cure for scurvy, gum disease,
plaque, hemorrhoids.
COMMON NAMES: Dog Rose, Bedeguar, Dog Rose

Galls, Hep Tree, Hip Tree, Wild Brier, Brier Rose,
Hip Fruit, Hips, Eglantine Gall, Hop Fruit, Hog Seed.
Hip Seed.
254
PARTS USED: Flowers, Seed Pods.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The seed cradle of roses, located under the flower head after the
petals drop, is called the "hip." An extract of this "hip," without its seeds, contains a pure
natural Vitamin C. A true Wild Rose Hip Extract contains no chemical sour taste of synthetic
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) as an additive. Beware of Rose Hip extracts that say on the label,
"with rosehips" or list rose hips as one of the ingredients. Wild Rose Hips contain not just
Vitamin C, but also the supporting substances called
bioflavonoids ("living colors"), such as rutin and
hesperidins which, in turn, make the absorption of
Vitamin C easier. In this way, the connective tissues
of the body are made elastic and youthful. This
prevents wrinkling and sagging, strengthens the blood
°"40010
vessels, capillaries (tiny blood vessels) included, and
stops the inclination to bruise easily. Scurvy is a
dis-ease which causes death with symptoms almost
indistinguishable from degenerative aging. But there
is good news. The Wild Rose Hip cures scurvy. The *A,
Vitamin C in Wild Rose Hips is a poison antidote and
increases the effectiveness of all other vitamins. With
A 4%1
Wild Rose Hips - Rosa canina
all these wonderful qualities, we can see why the Photograph by Dr. Eugene C. Watkins
Wild ose Hip wraps its "babies" (the seeds) in a
'
cradle of Vitamin C and associated substances. It is, then, no wonder that Wild Rose Hips
easily qualify as a life extender and protector. Take daily, as it does not store for more than a
few days in the body. Cultivated roses are never used as a source for this extract, as they have
lost the ability to bear seeds for offspring and are no longer tough enough to be "hardy
survivors" like the friendly, familiar, Wild Rose. If you were ever curious what the hip of a
Wild ose would taste like, you may be pleasantly surprised.
'
DOSAGE: 5 to 20 drops, three to four times per day. If debilitated, or more serious cases
needing body repair, 40 to 80 drops, three times per day.
WILD YAM
Dioscorea villosa
PROPERTIES AND USES: Hormones, zinc source,

the fertility of women, progesterone, preventing the
onset of some cancers. Give for spastic hiccoughs,
rheumatism (sore joints), hardened liver, diarrhea or
cholera (frequent dehydrating bowel discharges resulting
in extreme dehydration, and usually death, if not handled
properly). Taken throughout pregnancy to prevent
miscarriage or other problems.
COMMON NAMES: Colic Root, China Root,

Devil's Bones, Yam.
PARTS USED: Root.
255
BODILY INFLUENCES: WILD YAM - Dioscorea villosa ("Mexican Wild Yam")

Traditionally known to be the woman's friend. Wild Yam contains a class of compounds
called saponins "soap like" with the properties of acting like sex and anti-stress hormones.
From these, a woman's body can easily make the female hormone, progesterone. By
taking Wild Yam, the compound dehydroepiandrosterone, abbreviated, D.H.E.A.,
(dee-hydro'-eppy-ann-droster-own) is obtained. This nutrient compound is normally
found in a healthy, functioning body of both men and women. Apparently, the human
body can make a host of different hormones and or anti-stress compounds from the building
blocks contained in dehydroepiandrosterone. It has been observed that this compound,
dehydroepiandrosterone, however, decreases with the deterioration experienced during the
aging process and onset of heart "dis-ease." An exciting prospect is immediately suggested,
namely to supplement the diet with Wild Yam, which contains this nutrient, and see if we
have to age so fast or have heart "dis-ease." Who knows what would happen if we didn't
run out of hormones! And, a reassuring point is that there is no known toxic level for the
sensible use of the herb, Wild Yam. Among
the many things Wild Yam can do for a women
is to restore the tissues of the reproductive
dmisko
tract to a normal, healthy, functioning condition , ,
if the tissues are too thin and sensitive.

North American Indian women understood and
took a small amount of Wild Yam on a regular /
basis as support for a healthy reproductive

system. Wild Yam possesses a generous supply ,
7
of the mineral Zinc and, as such, protects skin of , r
both internal and external nature. Food sources *

women are benefited by the properties of the
root of this delicate, slender plant to correct Photograph by Barbara Jacobs
intestinal irritation. Jaundice, (yellow skin due

to gall stones plugging up the gallbladder duct or tube to the small intestine) is flushed out
by Wild Yam. Especially helpful to the pregnant woman as tonic for the uterus to prevent
cramping, restlessness, nausea, and nervousness. Taken throughout pregnancy to prevent
miscarriage or other problems. For men and women, Wild Yam relaxes tense muscle fibers,
and soothes the nerves in cases of nervous anxiety. Wherever mucus blocks the breathing
passages, Wild Yam is considered to be one of our best anti-mucus agents. It is especially
good for the lungs and relief of bronchial congestion. Wild Yam is stimulating and at the
same time a relaxant so it does not make you drowsy. Give for spastic hiccoughs, rheumatism
(sore joints), hardened liver, diarrhea or cholera (frequent dehydrating bowel discharges
resulting in extreme dehydration, and usually death, if not handled properly). We hear so
much today about hormone replacement therapy and how good it is and then, in the next
breath, we hear of the harm it causes. This is due to side effects caused by the nature of the
types of hormones commonly used by scientists. Namely, synthetically made or engineered,
through genetic tinkering in laboratories, or those which come from the urine of pregnant
256
horses, etc. which have been isolated and concentrated. The herbs as designed and given to us
by the Creator don't cause those kinds of problems, when used sensibly, because they already
contain the governing factors which regulate their actions and uses. So, don't go making a
drug out of it or use "abominable" (example: horse urine or worse) sources! Don't take the
herb and isolate what is called the "active principle" out of it and or concentrate it or
synthesize it! When you do that, you will take away or alter the limiting and governing
factors that regulate the herb function when you take the whole herb and you will have side
effects! Don't do that! If hormone replacement is desired, then consider the kind where you
don't have to worry about heart attacks, strokes or cancer. Use Wild Yam for progesterone
and the building blocks for other hormones and Dong Quai and or Black Cohosh for a source
of estrogen (See: Dong Ouai, See: Black Cohosh). Men and women can also use Saw
Palmetto (See: Saw Palmetto).
DOSAGE: 40 to 80 drops, three to four times per day if active discomfort. For daily
maintenance, 40 to 80 drops per day. During pregnancy, as a daily tonic, 20 drops twice per
day. If cholera or terrible diarrhea, then put one teaspoon of Wild Yam in a cup of water
along with one teaspoon of A.C.S. ("All Cells Salts," minerals) and one tablespoon of crude
sugar or Honey and drink hourly until better. For hormone supplementation or replacement,
40 to 80 drops, three times per day.
WILLOW
Salix nigra, Marsh.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Natural aspirin,

pain reliever, blood thinner, prevent blood
clots, sore eyes, typhoid fever.
COMMON NAMES: Catkins Willow,
Pussy Willow.
PARTS USED: Bark.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Willow bark is a

source of natural aspirin. All willows are
known to be active as pain relievers. The
strongest is, perhaps, the white willow. This
natural source of aspirin will not cause your
stomach to bleed or burn the nerves and brain.
Willow bark contains a compound known as a
salicylate (sal'-liss-uh-late), which is the
natural aspirin without the harmful, strong,
synthetic vinegar used to manufacture tablets from synthetic salicylates. For those who wish
to relieve pain and fevers, or keep their blood thinned and prevent clots that cause heart
attacks, nature's perfect remedy is the willow bark. summer bowel complaints of children
respond especially well to this remedy (SEE: CHILDREN'S DOSAGES, at the beginning of
this work). A local application around the eyes, hourly, as needed, (but not in the eye) is
excellent for sore eyes. Typhoid fever (potentially fatal, infectious bacterial dis-ease,
accompanied by high fever and abdominal red spots with discomfort, causing damage to the
257
spleen, connective tissue around the intestines which connect to the back body wall and to the
digestive area of the small intestine known as Peyer's Patches) finds its exact remedy in the
willow bark.
NOTE: This particular willow, Salix nigra, BLACK WILLOW, was in common use in
Victorian England as an aphrodisiac. It was there that the common name "PUSSY
WILLOW" was attached to this herb. Black Willow does, indeed, reduce tension which
might prevent normal reproductive functions.
DOSAGE: To keep the blood thin, 40 drops one to three times per day. If too cool, reduce
amount and or frequency. To reduce tension, 40 to 80 drops, as needed. If fever or Typhoid
infection (Adult), 40 to 80 drops every three hours, as needed, to relieve fever and
discomfort.
WINTERGREEN OIL
Gaultheria procumbens
PROPERTIES AND USES: Natural

Aspirin, Fibromyalgia, Rheumatoid
Arthritis, joint, muscle, tendon,
bone and nerve pain. Astringent,
expels mucus, relieves gas, stimulant,
brings on stubborn menstrual flow.
COMMON NAME: Checkerberry,
Spring Winterberry, Canada tea,
Boxberry, Wax Cluster, Spice Berry,
Mountain Tea.
BODILY INFLUENCES: When we say WINTERGREEN we mean any of many small,
hardy evergreen herbs about six inches tall or, if you prefer, 15 centimeters tall, that grow as
a kind of ground cover. It is found in abundance in the North Eastern region of North
America (U.S. and Canada). The best known type of Wintergreen has the scientific name
of (Gaultheria procumbens). Wintergreen has leathery, green, broad leaves and loves to grow
as a thick carpet in the partial shade of the woods in its rich earth, but can be found on open
ranges too. Its most common name of Wintergreen is surely due to the fact that in the winter
its leaves can still be seen to be alive and green. Its white bell-like flowers produce edible
scarlet red berries that taste spicy and refreshing with a texture somewhat like a moist,
ground up nut or grain. Contained within the entire plant is an ache and discomfort
relieving, compound similar to aspirin. The chemical name for this compound is salicylate
(suh-liss'-uh-late). The natural oil from the Wintergreen plant is almost 98% salicylate in
the form of methyl (meth'-u1) salicylate. It is found in a surprising number of places in every
day life, classified as a flavoring agent. For example, widespread use is made of Wintergreen
in toothpaste, common beverages such as root beer and Coca Cola and chewing gum.
258
When you go across the sea to England you will find Wintergreen Oil is currently recognized
in their official medical book, the British Herbal Pharmacopoeia (farm-uh-ko-pea-uh) as a
specific remedy for rheumatoid arthritis. That means if you have joints, muscles and
tendons, bones or nerves that hurt and you put
Wintergreen Oil on the area externally, it fixes
it. Wintergreen works in two ways, one way is 1111- _ „,;i9s,4401
to quickly relieve discomfort and the other way At •40*-
is to break up the uric (your-ick) acid or other

deposits. Then the body can flush them out.
This is why we say you should also drink a large
glass of clean natural water. Even better, you \
can drink a diuretic (die-you-ret-ik) tea. This is
a tea, which will encourage the kidneys to go to •
work. As examples, try Peppermint tea or Alfalfa Wintergreen — Gaultheria procumbens

tea to flush the crystals and wastes out of the body Photograph by Barbara Jacobs
that the Wintergreen Oil breaks loose. It should also

be mentioned here that this new dis-ease you hear so much about called fibromyalgia
(f-eye-bro-my-al-gee-uh) is very similar to what used to be called by the old-fashioned word
"rheumatism" (roo-muh-tiz-em). It just so happens that Wintergreen Oil can be used
externally for rheumatism with pretty good results. The people of England were not the first
to discover Wintergreen. Our American "Indians" or first Americans knew this plant well
and appreciated it for the taste of its refreshing berries. They lived basically outside without
our modern heating. This can be a real stress on the joints. You can believe they gave thanks
for the boiled tea of Wintergreen to relieve the torment of rheumatism. They not only drank
the tea to treat coughs loosen mucus and relieve discomfort, they wrapped body parts with it
as well. The natural oil is seldom used these days because there is a synthetic oil which is so
plentiful and cheap. Herbalists however demand the natural and enjoy its added benefits
even if it does cost a bit more. The natural plant oil has a control mechanism built into it so
you don't have to worry so much about side effects. Wintergreen Oil is used mainly
externally, although a small amount can be brushed on the tongue as needed. Wintergreen
Oil "tightens" or tones living tissue. Wintergreen Oil is also a non-habit forming stimulant.
DOSAGE: As stated, Wintergreen Oil is a pain reliever. It handles swellings and can be
rubbed on rheumatism areas for relief. Apply to the chest to break up mucus and brush a
little on the tongue.
WOOD BETONY
Betonica officinalis
PROPERTIES AND USES: Pains of the head & face, cataracts (poor circulation to the lens
of the eye causing it to turn cloudy and blurring vision), or in the case of glaucoma,
depression & migraine headaches, mental sharpness returns & brain coordination.
COMMON NAMES: Betony, Lousewort.
259
BODILY INFLUENCES: In ancient Greece, the common expression was "sell your coat &
buy Betony." This plant was highly valued for all pains of the head & face as we still value it
today. Wood Betony has the marvelous property of opening cramped or spastic blood vessels
and thereby reestablishing circulation. Practitioner please take note: It has been observed
that when the circulation to an area (an organ or gland or the whole body) is made
adequate, healing takes place. If you have eye problems such as cataracts (poor circulation
to the lens of the eye causing it to turn cloudy and blurring vision), or in the case of glaucoma
(circulatory fluid goes into the eye but cannot leave as easily, pressure builds up and can
cause blindness), you want to normalize the circulation. Rub Wood Betony from the side of
the nose over the upper cheek, up onto the temples on both sides of the face. Use 10 to 20
drops on each side three to four times per day. Do
both sides of the face, even if the trouble is with one
eye. The eyes are sympathetic, if one cries, they
both cry. Here a discussion of eyes, and eyesight in
general, is in order. In the main, vision, or seeing, is
mainly a matter of seeing what we like to or what
makes an impression on us. Look at things you like,
•
'1146 a e.o"
e It
calmly & admiringly to gain improvement of your
vision. If blood vessels to the eyes are plugged with
fat or cholesterol, use a digestaid such as Gentian,
internally & externally, from the nose to the
temples. If blood vessels to the eyes are plugged Ni* •
with "rocks" (waste mineral deposits), use Dulse for IP
the thyroid (the thyroid controls calcium levels in
the blood), 40 drops three times per day continually,
& apply either of the two herbs, Gravel Root or
Stone Root from the nose to the temples. If scar
tissue blocks the blood vessels to the eyes, rub on
Chickweed. If you wish to strengthen the muscles, Wood Betony — Betonica officinalis
which focus or hold the eyeballs straight or move
the eyes, apply Vitamin E from 100 or 400 unit
capsules. Vitamin E from a natural source
strengthens muscles & is oxygenating for the "breath of life," as are many of the herbs. If
vision problems still persist due to sinus congestion & pressures on the eyes, apply Bayberry,
and let the mucus drain out into the throat, and even through the eyes if necessary, until the
vision returns. For improvement of night vision, 40 to 80 drops, per meal, of Dandelion
Leaves and/or rub Vitamins A&D (fish liver oil source) from the sides of the nose & up onto
the temples. Often Purple Loosestrife alone has restored sight. Rub this on externally three
times per day as well. Then you have a team of herbs, which are both known to oxygenate the
head area. Many forms of depression & migraine headaches disappear, mental sharpness
returns & brain coordination is restored when circulation returns to the head. A bowel
program is essential to eye improvement. Remove bowel wastes more frequently so they do
not get reabsorbed and move up to escape through the sinuses by using them as emergency
exits. Take internally, 40 drops of Bayberry to liquefy and drain the sinuses. Then congested
sinuses do not choke or put abnormal pressure on the eyes.
If you have to regenerate eye structures also apply, externally and liberally, the repair
formula named 01' Number 11. Sometimes the eyes & eye structures are "pouting" or
"sulking" like an animal, which has been mistreated. Usually this is due to emotional shock,
260
bumps, blows or previous injury. To remove shock from the area & bring back the eager
activity of the eyes, apply five drops of Arnica to side of the nose, across the upper cheek &
onto the temple, four times per day. Repeat daily until the eyes regain their normal activity.
DOSAGE: 40 drops of Wood Betony internally, three times per day, and as given above.
WORMSEED
Chenopodium anthelminticum
PROPERTIES AND USES: Killing and

expelling hookworms, deafness due to
brain disorder is reversed, as well as
ringing in the ears, Asthma, pressure in
the uterus, convulsions, epilepsy, pain on
the side of the head, repairs damage from
stroke, paralysis and pain in the shoulder
blade. One of the most curious properties
of Wormseed is to conquer the condition
of aphasia (uh-faze'-yuh), where a person
cannot express themselves properly
through speech or has loss of verbal
comprehension.
COMMON NAMES: American Wormseed, Jesuit Tea, Jerusalem Oak, Wild Worm Seed,
Stinking Weed, Wormseed Plant, Goosefoot, Jerusalem Jak.
PARTS USED: Seeds and herb.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Has a deep, resinous, penetrating scent which is very distinctive
and upsetting to ants. While its reputation of killing and expelling hookworms is solidly
accepted by demonstration, its other talents are just as valued. Deafness due to brain disorder
is reversed, as well as ringing in the ears. Asthma, pressure in the uterus, convulsions,
epilepsy, pain on the side of the head, loss of control on one side of the body (stroke),
paralysis and pain in the shoulder blade all fall within the realm of Wormseed's determined
correction. One of the most curious properties of Wormseed is to conquer the condition of
aphasia (uh-faze'-yuh), where a person cannot express themselves properly through speech or
has loss of verbal comprehension. Here, the motor and sensory nerves are restored to working
order, which is a feat of no small importance. A round of applause from all Herbalists and
Natural Practitioners, if you please.
DOSAGE: For all uses listed above including parasites, take internally, 20 drops (in juice, if
preferred) per day, after meals, for one week, and thereafter, 40 drops (three times per day)
after each meal until well. For correction of hearing loss or ringing in the ears, swab the ear
canals with oil from 100 or 400 i.u. Vitamin E capsules (International Unit, a measure of
liquid Vitamins) on a Q-Tip or Cotton Bud and then insert a cotton ball soaked with the
extract into each ear. Change morning and night for continual fresh, time-release effect. If
convulsions, apply to the back of the neck, spine, temples and top of the head continuously,
as needed, until relief. For recuperation pain in the side of the head, from stroke, correction of
261
epilepsy or aphasia, apply to back of neck and entire spine, temples, and top of the head each
day in quantities needed, and take internally, as given above. If asthma, apply to spine and
back of neck, as well as the chest, once per day. If pressure in the uterus, apply to spine and
neck and over the ovarian area once per day or more, as needed. Take with a good bowel
management program, which produces at least two, and preferably three, movements per day.
Keep the poisons released by Wormseed moving out of the body. (See: Cascara Sagrada,
C.C.E.-W or Buckthorn).

YARROW
Achillea millefolium
PROPERTIES AND USES: Vulnerary

(healing), stimulant, tonic, incontinence,
fistulas, Bright's Disease, (large bubbles
on the surface of urine), diuretic,
high blood sugar.
COMMON NAMES: Thousand Leaf;

Noble Yarrow, Old Man's Pepper, Milifoil.
PARTS USED: hole herb.
BODILY INFLUENCES: The Honorable

Greek hero of legend, Achilles, said the
juice from fresh Yarrow put into the eye will
take away redness. The American Indian
knew Yarrow as a swift remedy for the
rundown feeling and indigestion. He further
used Yarrow as a remedy for increasing the
urinary flow from the kidneys. Although
sweating has become socially unacceptable,
it is essential to the health of the skin. For those able, sauna and exercise are recon -unended.
Yarrow settles nerves and thus reduces high blood pressure. It relieves shortness of breath
and wasting of spinal marrow. Its list of successes is legion. Beneficial results in this partial
list confirm its revered status among herbalists: Childhood dis-eases, including infant
diarrhea, uterus problems, Bright's dis-ease (egg white material in the urine), gas, piles, sore
nipples, fistulas, flu and hair loss. Yarrow may be taken for involuntary loss of urine, bed
wetting, spitting up of blood, as a nervine and as a remedy for common colds and high blood
sugar.
DOSAGE: 30 to 60 drops three times per day in fluid or under the tongue.
262
YELLOW DOCK
Rumex crispus; L.
PROPERTIES AND USES: Astringent, tonic,

scurvy, skin problems, especially itch, lymphatic
system, syphilis, spongy gums.
COMMON NAMES: Curled Dock, Sour Dock,

Narrow Dock, Garden Patience.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Alma Hutchens cites

Yellow Dock as "A favorite herb of ancient Indians,
old time doctors, early settlers and herbal
practitioners." Perhaps its prime function is due to its
extremely rich organic iron content. Because of this,
oxygen for the breath of life is combined easily with
food materials for energy and to oxidize food and
reduce them to easily eliminated ash from the depths of the cellular mitochondria
(body's furnace). Yellow Dock is often recommended
for prenatal cases so mother and baby can have proper
oxygenation for a normal pregnancy. The rich supply
of iron provides baby with enough iron to survive on
a diet of breast milk for six months after birth without
additional iron, as is expected. The solids of
Yellow Dock when analyzed are up to 40% iron.
This type of iron cannot be picked up by a magnet.
Iron formulas often employed in the prenatal diet by
"modern" doctors are straight from iron ore and can
cause liver poison and black stools. Yellow Dock's
iron is closely associated with the living plant
nrocesses and is
easily absorbed.
Modern science
today will do well
to recognize the
relative activity Yellow Dock — Rumex crispus; L.
rates of different Photograph by Barbara Jacobs
types of iron rather I
than make false assumptions that iron filings are as good
for you as Yellow Dock iron. Healthy mothers and babies
speak much for the difference. Herbalists have
traditionally used this mineral-rich plant for sore joints,
blood from the lungs, tumors, leprosy, cancer, chronic bronchitis, dis-eased spleen, swollen
lymph glands and as a valuable source of iron for male and female system. Rub the extract
on spongy gums each evening until relief. Loose teeth are thus replaced in proper position.
263
Use the extract for shingles by combining Yellow Dock with Burdock to make an
application. Apply Vitamin E w/selenium from capsules to the affected area. Then place a
cotton cloth, with no dye, soaked in the extracts over the area followed by a plastic wrap and
a cloth wrap to hold it all in place. (Ratio for this solution is 10 to 2). Ten parts of water to
one part of each two Docks. This may also be used on other types of skin eruptions and skin
allergies.
DOSAGE: Internally 10 to 40 drops one to two times per day. During pregnancy, 10 to 40
drops three times per day.
YERBA SANTA
Eriodvction glutinosum
PROPERTIES AND USES: Asthma attacks, all-star expectorant herb to cleanse the lungs
and throat, colds, fluid in the lungs.
COMMON NAMES: Bear's Weed, Mountain Balm, Gum Plant, Consumptive Weed,
Tar Weed.
BODILY INFLUENCES: From the Spanish language we have the name Yerba Santa, or, as
we would say in English, "Herb Saint." This herb of the high desert mountains in the desert
southwest of the U.S., with its gray-white miniature trumpet flowers, has long been revered
by the Spanish community as a life-saving lung herb. The clean refreshing scent and taste of
Yerba Santa immediately suggest the relief it affords for removing mucus, draining fluid
from lungs and their restoration to normal function. Take internally, 40 to 80 drops per day,
or hourly as needed for relief. For serious cases of mucus and or fluid in the lungs, open
capsules of 100 or 400 i.u. Vitamin E and rub into the areas of the chest and upper back. Soak
a single layer of absorbent gauze or cheesecloth with Yerba Santa Extract and lay one layer
over chest and one layer over the upper back. Then cover with plastic sandwich wrap and
finally, a cloth wrap around the body or a T-shirt to hold all in place. Finally, take a plastic
trashcan liner and make holes for the head and arms. Pull this over the head and wear like a
nightshirt. Cover up warm and sweat it out. Change the application morning and night. Wash
the area and allow to dry before applying a fresh application. During the sweating out period,
give Yarrow Tea as a drink, one cup per hour, while awake. Prepare by the usual method of
tea making by putting one rounded teaspoonful of the dry herb in a cup of hot water and let
steep (set) for three or more minutes, then strain through a paper coffee filter, or put one
teaspoonful of Yarrow Extract in a cup of water for an instant tea. For additional helpful
herbs to remove mucus and fluid from the lungs: apply to the skin of the chest and back
Herbal Adj. (Adjustment), Oil of Cajeput and Pleurisy Root to remove fluid from lungs and
break up congestion. Caution: Do not get Oil of Cajeput or Herbal Adj. in the eyes, on
underarm area or on private areas as they cause a burning sensation (not blistering) and it
could be alarming if you are not aware that no actual damage is being done.
DOSAGE: To breathe easier, take 40 to 80 drops three to four times per day or hourly, if
needed. For other uses, as given above.
264

YOHINIBE SEE: YOKUM
YOKUM
Yokum aphrodisiaca
PROPERTIES AND USES: Proven aphrodisiac (produces sexual desire and strength),
carries blood to the pelvic area; stimulates the spinal nerves, stimulant to the parasympathetic
nervous system** (resulting in profound emotional feelings), impotence & frigidity; hot
flashes during menopause.
COMMON NAMES: Yohimbe.
PARTS USED: Bark.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Also known as Yohimbe Bark, is from West Africa and a well
established part of traditional folk medicine practice. Yokum is a proven aphrodisiac
(produces sexual desire and strength) and is recognized by scientific medicine as indeed
increasing penis erection strength. This quotation from F. Joseph Montagna PEOPLE'S
DESK REFERENCE, Page 855 tells it all, "Tingling sensation in the genitals*, carries blood
to the pelvic area, stimulates the spinal nerves, stimulant to the parasympathetic nervous
265
system** (resulting in profound emotional feelings); overcomes psychological impotence &

frigidity, overcomes mental & physical barriers; produces pleasurable warm shivers through
the back during intercourse." In some cases the body should be strengthened before using
Yokum. A bowel program (See: Cascara Sagrada, C.C.E.-W or Buckthorn) and a cleaner
such as Gravel Root may he required for proper functioning. Many women find this bark
extremely helpful in controlling hot flashes during menopause.
* reproductive organs
** involuntary nervous system of the neck and lower back
DOSAGE: To restore sexual function or alleviate hot flashes, 40 drops, one to three times
per day after meals, as needed.
YUCCA
Yucca schidigeria
PROPERTIES AND USES: Joints are lubricated

and strengthened and elasticity is restored. There
is some indication, part of Yucca's work may be
accomplished by detoxifying or neutralizing the
poisons given off by unfriendly colon bacteria or
flora, which inhibit the manufacture of healthy
cartilage, as well as providing lubrication for the
joints.
COMMON NAMES: Tapioca Plant, Sweet

Cassava, Madioca, Cassava Plant, Bitter
Cassava.
PARTS USED: Root.
BODILY INFLUENCES: Is a desert plant with

long bayonet shaped protecting leaves around a stout, central, erect stem which carries a
terminal cluster of white flowers. As with most all desert plants, they successfully resist
drying. They must survive under harsh, hot, arid
conditions. The substances they manufacture and store
for the processes of living are very concentrated.
There is no in between with respect to how much help
they can give us. They are either very, very bad for us
or very, very good for us. Yucca is very, very good
for us. Yucca moistens skin and prevents drying.
Excellent joint lubricant; dry, cracking joints glide
smoothly again. Joints lacking flexibility are
strengthened, elasticicity is restored and returned to
service. There is some indication, part of Yucca's
work may be accomplished by detoxifying or
.
. tne poisons • .. colon
neutralizing given on ny unmencuy
bacteria or flora, which inhibit the manufacture of healthy cartilage, as well as providing
lubrication for the joints.
DOSAGE: 40 drops, one to three times per day. Also, apply externally, as needed, to
troubled skin areas along with Vitamin E, as additional nourishment for the skin, from 100 or
400 i.u. (International Unit, a measure of liquid vitamins) capsules.
