EAR PAIN
"I've used CBG EXTRACT for
many things and that stuff is great! I
have used it on the kids and it works!
While in California last May, Stephanie
woke up crying one night with ear pain (she
had a cold). I had my herbs with me (thanks
to God) so I put a couple of drops in
her ears and we all went back to sleep.
She
never complained about her ears again.
This is the kid that will sleep through
just about anything. When she wakes up
with pain, it's
usually pretty bad." G.A.
EAR
PROBLEMS
"A lady had been deaf for
45 years. Taking 4 ALJ 4-5 times
a day for allergies, she was beginning
to hear. She added Stress-J for
the nerves. Before long hearing was
completely restored." J.B.
"My grandson's hearing test
came back with a hearing loss of
30%. At 4 he had tubes put in his ears.
We didn't want that again, so I used CHLOROPHYLL, ECHINACEA & ALJ.
In 4 weeks the test was normal." Ruby
G.
" A nurse called about her baby's ear
infection. She'd finished 2 rounds
of antibiotics with no results. Using CBG
EXTRACT in the ears and internally,
it cleared up. A friend uses CBG
to prevent swimmer's ear." S.Winslow
" Our daughter (3 months old)
had brown fluid draining from her ears,
so we used CBG EXTRACT and GARLIC
OIL in it and it stopped the draining
and she didn't fuss with them any longer." S.B.
ECZEMA & RASH
"I
suffer with eczema in the winter
months, especially my right thumb,
which cracks open in one spot and
never seems to heal until the warm
weather comes in. The past few days,
I've also developed a painful rash
between my second and third fingers
of my right hand. After reading your
comments on TEA TREE OIL this
morning, saying that it is good for
wounds, I applied some to the rash.
An hour later, I noticed that my
finger was no longer bothering me.
When I looked, I noticed that the
rash was completely gone. I then
applied it to my hard-to-heal thumb
and, although the split is still
there, it seems to have closed up
a bit. I've also used GOLDEN SALVE on
that thumb with great results. I
love this stuff!" Joanne
EMERGENCY SITUATIONS
"When S. was 2 years
old, we were at the park and another
child was there that we didn't know and
he bit Susannah on the nose. It broke
the skin and it looked bad after we got
home. I really worried about it, but
I put GOLDEN SALVE on it and kept
it on the wound. In a week it was totally
healed. There was not even a scar. After
that, Susannah would say, "Dat my
Gold?" Only 6 months later, she
smashed her finger in a hinged lid to
a desk. It cut through the nail and looked
like she'd lose the tip of her finger.
When we got to the emergency room, they
stitched it back and said they didn't
know if the blood flow would get there
or not. They wrapped it up with some
of their cream and we were to leave it
alone for 2 days and return. When we
returned it didn't look any better to
me, and they wrapped it again and told
me to continue to unwrap it and put some
cream on. Well, I decided to use GOLDEN
SALVE and by the time I went back
again in 2 days, they said it was looking
fine and not to return. I kept the Golden
Salve on there and now you can't even
tell there was stitches....no scar....nothing! GOLDEN
SALVE is much in use at our house
and has done many great things!" B.
Important Note: We have personally
used Golden Salve on many of our emergencies.
It has herbal antibiotics in it to
keep infection out. It generates new
tissue fast, and heals so well that
you rarely see a scar. Our son, Ben,
has avoided many stitches by using
Golden Salve (after the Capsicum has
stopped the bleeding). My husband,
Randal, has avoided stitches after
cutting himself with a tree saw and
also a piece of metal on the car. PLEASE
be wise in your decision to use alternative
health care for emergencies. Donna

EMPHYSEMA
"A friend of ours had
a cough for months. The doctors told
him he had emphysema. He coughed
at night and even coughed up blood
sometimes. Before finishing one bottle
of ALJ and MARSHMALLOW & FENUGREEK,
the cough was gone." V. G.
ENDOMETRIOSIS
"I've had endometriosis for 10 years.
The daily pain became severe during January.
I would often be hunched over with pain as
I walked. I was taking up to 4-5 pain pills
per day and they were not helping. In June,
I began to take RED RASPBERRY and DONG
QUAI on a daily basis. Within 6 days
I began to notice that there was less pain.
Now, after two weeks of use, I am pain free
and my hot flashes have also subsided." J.H.
ENERGY "I don't do a lot of exercising,
especially bike riding. I was invited
to go mountain biking with a friend
in the mountains of Utah. I was afraid
I wouldn't survive the strenuous climb.
I took ENERG-V and TARGET
ENDURANCE for two days preceding
the ride, and on the day of the ride.
I found that I was not even hungry
during the day-long ride, and even
more, that I was able to keep up with
my friend, who has been riding these
trails for three years. After the 21-mile
ride, I did not experience any stiffness,
and my energy level was normal the
following day." D.Wall
"I was looking for something to help
with weight loss and I chose NATURE'S
CHI (I think I meant to get Fen Chi,
but no matter!) and FAT GRABBERS.
The Nature's Chi is wonderful. I have only
been taking it for 3 days and I feel revitalized.
I have had problems previously with my energy
level and I have been concerned I wasn't
getting all I could from life because I was
constantly tired. When I got home from work,
I would rest, drag myself to the kitchen
to make dinner for my husband, eat, and then
rest some more. These past few days have
been a different story. I took my puppy on
a long walk one day, I went grocery shopping,
I began redecorating my bedroom. I am so
pleased with the results." MJ
ENERGY & FEELING
GOOD
"When I use ony one (1) packet
of the ULTIMATE BUILD, I feel
so good all day long. I think the energy
formula in it really keeps me going
all day. I took the fiber drink at
night for all the wonderful benefits
of fiber in the diet (blood sugar regulation,
colon cleansing, cholesterol, fat grabbing,
etc.). Drinking plenty of water was
really important." Jennie
ENVIRONMENTALLY-SAFE
CLEANING
"It's warm and springy and I
was again reminded of the wonderful
outdoor uses of SUNSHINE CONCENTRATE.
I spent the afternoon cleaning up my
lawn furniture which was effortless
with a bucketful of water mixed with
Sunshine Concentrate. Everything comes
off so easily and I am not concerned
about hurting the environment. Then
it was car wash time. Did you know
that a dot of Sunshine Concentrate
on a bug or tar spot just nearly lifts
right off? Hardly any scrubbing involved.
Thanks Nature's Sunshine for a great
product!" Robin
EXHAUSTED WORKING
IN GARDEN
"I like to work outside in the
garden, but would always be so exhausted
and 'washed out' after only a couple
of hours of work. A friend suggested
I try PRIME FORM RECOVERY. The
taste was so good and the ingredient
list looked so nutritious that I thought
it would help me in some way, so I
ordered some. I was amazed! I drank
some before I went out and after three
hours of work, I came back in to cool
down and have some more. I was able
to go back out and work another two
hours. I need to share this with some
of my fellow seniors!" D.P.
EYES CLEARER
"I ordered some Eyebright Plus because
I've had some problems with my eyes and liked
what was in the formula. I used it as directed,
2 a day, and in two weeks my eyes were so
much clearer. I really like it." Mary P.
FIBROID TUMORS
"I had a history of female problems:
Questionable pap tests, heavy menstrual flow,
uterus lined with fibroid tumors, I'd had
numerous D&C's, and I was on progesterone
to control the bleeding, but it wasn't doing
it. I was bleeding 26 days a month for 6
years. I finally began to hemorrhage so much
that my husband took me to the Doctor who
said I needed an emergency hysterectomy.
Bloodwork showed that my blood count was
too low for surgery without transfusions,
and after receiving several shots I was told
to come back in 3 days for the surgery. We'd
heard of herbs and had a friend who used
them, so we went to her. I began taking NF-X
(NF-X is no longer available, but you
can substitute FEMALE COMFORT
), RED RASPBERRY, CALCIUM
PLUS, and LIQUID CHLOROPHYLL.
Within 2 weeks the bleeding had stopped.
In two months there were no tumors,
the pap test was clear, and that
was 11 years ago. I feel better than
I ever have in my life and I'm thankful
for herbs." D. Scott
FIBROMYALGIA
"I am one of those lucky people who
got very noticeable pain relief in less than
two weeks using FIBRALGIA. It is still
working its magic." Eleanor
FLU -
BEATING IT NATURALLY!
"The new year greeted us
with the flu and guess who got it the worst?
Me! I had to be pretty aggressive fighting
it. My sinuses got infected and my ears
were bothering me. I was using ECHINACEA/GOLDENSEAL,
CC-A, ALJ, etc. and was not being able
to control it.
Finally, I put CBG in my nose!
I'd heard about doing this on a tape.
That did it! I got rid of some pretty
disgusting "green" stuff
and then I could finally breathe. Within
two days, the pain in my face was gone.
I also changed to IGS II instead
of the ECHINACEA/GOLDENSEAL.
The kids had some pretty scary fevers
too (104). We are all doing better
now. I'm extremely happy we avoided
the doctor's office completely!" G.A.
FUNGUS - In House
Tea Tree Oil kills the spores when diffused into wet areas of the house. I have used it after my basement rug was under an inch of water and never had fungus.
I used it when I was getting water in my windowsill with black spores of fungus all around. The tea tree oil was diffused and I have never had a fungus problem. These diffusers are great. Phyllis H.
FUNGUS TOENAILS
"I started taking MSM because
of my knee and am on my second bottle (I
usually only take 2 in the morning). Both
my big toenails have had fungus for a very
long time. Half of my nail now looks completely
normal, it looks like when the other grows
out that my nail will be fine. I can only
attribute it to the MSM because I
am not taking anything else different." G.C.
GALL BLADDER FLUSH
Generally, people who are
trying to flush out their gall bladder
will fast for 24-48 hours on pure apple
juice (the ingredient label says, "apple
juice" only!). The malic acid
in apples is said to break down gall
stones. An herbal laxative (Cascara
or LBS II) can be used as needed
and Gall Bladder Formula is
usually helpful. Usually 2 capsules
of Gall Bladder Formula is
taken every 2 hours during the fast.
One may also wish to take 2 capsules
of Hydrangea with it which is
a stone solvent. At the end of 2 days
at bedtime, drink 1/2 c. cold-pressed
olive oil and 1/2 c. fresh-squeezed
lemon juice mixed. Immediately go to
bed and lie on your right side for
at least 1/2 hour before going to sleep.
In the morning, if you don't have a
bowel movement, take an enema. You
will see dark black or green objects
which look like shriveled peas. You
may want to continue the apple juice
fast another day and do another olive
oil & lemon juice flush at bedtime.
GALL BLADDER STONES
DISAPPEARED
"I had been told due to a CAT scan that
I needed to have my gall bladder removed.
Being only 35 I didn't want to do that. I
had heard there was a cleanse you could do
to get rid of gall stones, so this is what
I read you could do and I decided to try
it:
"Gallstones have been dissolved and
flushed out of the body on a 3-day
fast with nothing but apple juice throughout
the day (not the kind with water from
concentrate, but the kind you buy in
the Health Food Store that is unfiltered
- apples are only ingredient - you
need about two gallons). You can water
it down so that it'll last and be filling
for you. You can eat raw veggies or
fruit if you need to....but nothing
that would have fat in it (to cause
the gallbladder to have to work). Each
evening, right before bed, you take
1/2 c. fresh lemon juice (or frozen
Minute Maid in yellow bottle in black
box) and 1/2 c. cold-pressed olive
oil. Put them in blender with a couple
of ice cubes and it will help to emulsify
them. Guzzle that down (real fast!)
and go right to bed. Lay on your right
side and go to sleep. You repeat this
process for the 2nd and 3rd day and
night. Depending on how many and how
large the gall stones are, they'll
begin showing up in the toilet bowl
- green or black round balls."
I did the 3 day cleanse twice over
two different weekends including fresh
apples and carrots, and the bedtime
knockout - lemon juice and olive oil
cocktail. Well, here's the great news.
I went to the hospital yesterday for
my ultrasound and two techs looked
and looked and said, 'There are no
stones or blockages here, why would
your doctor waste your time and ours?'
I acted innocent, and said, 'Oh well,
I don't mind the hassle as long as
it's good news.' Thanks so much for
sharing natural health information
and saving me from having to have surgery.
I feel so much stronger and healthier
as I was pro-active in the events being
plotted out by the medical community.
This just adds to my belief that miracles
can happen to those who are willing
to let them in." BW
GASTRO-INTESTINAL
BLEED
"I thought I would write and give you
an experience I had with LIQUID CHLOROPHYLL.
Two weeks ago I had an upper GI bleed. I
really lost a lot of blood and felt very
week and woozy. I took SLIPPERY ELM and
also took the last of the NSP Chlorophyll
that I had that night. It was Saturday night
and I hate the emergency room, so I felt
I could take care of it. I got H-p FIGHTER the
next day and started on it, and drinking
1 quart of fresh cabbage juice a day that
my dear Floyd fixed for me. When Monday came
I could not see my doctor, because he was
not in the office. I have problems with doctors
and decided to wait for him, which ended
up being a week. I got another quart of Liquid
Chlorophyll and began taking a lot (probably
an ounce or more in water about 5 times a
day at least). Within 24 hours I felt stronger,
and every day felt better. I also used CHAMOMILE tea, GINGER tea, H-p
FIGHTER, and the cabbage juice. When
I did see the Dr. I told him everything I'd
taken. He said it is working, because when
he pressed my stomach it did not hurt. He
didn't give me any medicine or make me go
through heavy testing. He did a blood test,
and when we got the results my hemoglobin
was 14, lowest accepted normal is 12.5 according
to my lab sheet. In l997 mine was 15. When
the nurse told me, she said he said everything
looks good, and to remember what I did and
keep doing it. He told me I was braver than
he, since he would've put me in the hospital
had he been here. It made me feel really
good that I was able to take care of such
a serious problem. Also made me appreciate
you folks for helping me with my herbal education.
Thanks again. You may use this experience
if you like." S.C. (Tea can be
made from any of the capsules if opened
into a cup and boiling water is added.)
