Lymph cleansing

[Guest guest]

Hi Gang,

Recently been experiencing a string of problems that DH and I believe

are related to the need to flush my lymph system.

I've been having rashes on scalp and legs that are maddening, SUPER

tired, and general yucky feeling. I have had problems with Eczema

off and on my whole life, but this is different; I dont think they

are syptomatic of Shingles based on what i have researched, they look

more like maybe psoraisis. blah - blah - blah

I started doing some ocotillo tincture twice a week along with Liver

Detox tea to start flushing my system - kind of prep work because i

am going to try a body cleanse again. Also just got a rebounder to go

along with it all and plan on using at least 3 times per week.

Anyway to my question - i am reading up on assorted receipes and want

to build a Lymph tea and tincture and i wanted to bounce these off

you guys and get any imput or personal experience you might have.

Especially with regards to which medium would be best for the

tincture (Alch vs ACV)

For the tea i was thinking:

Ocotillo bark

Poke Root

Cleavers

Licorice

Mullien

For the tincture i was thinking

Ocotillo bark

Poke Root

Cleavers

Burdock root

Goldenseal root

A couple of the recipes i read suggested Stillingia root - which we

dont know much about and then there was a like 10 other things that

were also in the Liver detox tea and so i thought i would alternate

liver tea and Lymph tea thru the days that I am working on this

problem.

Thanks in advance for any input

Sylvia, These are the ingredients from Herbal Release made for lymph cleansing... I would take them and make your own tea... (If it is psoriasis... check the files for some formulas) Each herb was carefully selected for its ability to work with the lymphatic system to produce a positive cell environment. In doing so, these herbs provide benefits not currently available in any other herbal formulation. Barberry root bark Affects: liver, spleen, digestive tract, blood Barberry may help with an enlarged spleen. One constituent, berberine, may have antibiotic properties. According to Castleman in The Healing Herbs, barberry may also stimulate the immune system and may activate macrophages. Other sources state that it helps bile flow. Boldo leaves Affects: liver, stomach Boldo is an evergreen shrub that grows in the Andes Mountains. It is said to help with gallbladder problems. One constituent, ascaridole, is said to function as a vermifuge, which expels intestinal worms. Buckthorn bark Affects: liver, gallbladder, intestines, blood Buckthorn is a depurative, which promotes the excretion and removal of waste material. It is also a mild laxative, due to its anthraquinone content, and is said to aid bile production. Burdock root Affects: blood, kidneys, liver Burdock root has a long history as a detoxifier. In Herbal Medications, A.W. and L.R. Priest note that

burdock can be used ". to remove accumulated waste products." It is also known to help with lymphatic congestion. Cascara sagrada Affects: colon, stomach, liver, gallbladder, pancreas Cascara sagrada, like buckthorn root, contains anthraquinone and is thus a mild laxative. It is also a general tonic that promotes well-being in all body systems. Chickweed Affects: blood, liver, kidneys, bladder Chickweed boasts many folk remedies, and is said to be good for the blood and joints. Dandelion root Affects: liver, kidneys, gallbladder, stomach, pancreas, intestines, blood Dandelion has a distinguished

history as a detoxifier. ph Pizzorno and Murray, in A Textbook of Natural Medicine, call it a fine remedy for a toxic liver. The Ayurvedic physician Vasant Lad and Frawley, in The Yoga of Herbs, say dandelion is also good for the lymph glands, and Santillo, in Natural Healing with Herbs, classifies it as a lymphatic, which cleanses the lymphatic system. Echinacea Affects: blood, lymph, kidneys Echinacea was used by Native Americans, and today, it is recognized as an aid to the immune system. Echinacea contains echinacoside, a natural antibiotic, which is probably responsible for antibiotic properties. Studies in Europe have shown that echinacea increases production of T cells. Santillo classifies it as a lymphatic, which cleanses the lymphatic system. Licorice

root Affects: lungs, stomach, intestines, spleen, liver Licorice is well-known as a powerful herb. According to a report in Microbiology and Immunology, licorice may stimulate cell production of interferon. Asian studies and studies published in the Plant Medica (1984, 50) have shown it to be helpful for the liver. Parsley Affects: kidneys, bladder, stomach, liver, gallbladder From the 1850s to 1926, parsley was recognized by the United States Pharmacopoeia as a laxative and a diuretic. Today, it is more commonly used as a breath freshener. Sarsaparilla Affects: blood, skin, circulation, intestines Sarsaparilla, according to Pizzorno and Murray in

A Textbook of Natural Medicine, has been used in Europe since the sixteenth century as a blood purifier. Sarsaparilla is also said to bind to endotoxins and escort them out of the body. If endotoxins remain in the body they can contribute to a number of health-related problems.Sylvia <h10feet@...> wrote: Hi Gang,Recently been experiencing a string of problems that DH and I believe are related to the need to flush my lymph system.I've been having rashes on scalp and legs that are maddening, SUPER tired, and general yucky feeling.

This sounds like it could be candida, Sylvia. Have you looked at that?

Hi Sharyn,

I dont think it's Candida, used to have tons of problems with that " pre-

cleanse " , and dont have any of the ususal symptoms anywhere else - no

blooms or discharges. I did think of that though and thanks for the

input.

The rashy patches are mildly scaley, itch like & $$*$ & $*^ and are

sometimes painful and or slightly Prickly, not watery or blistery.

Thanks again )

This is a great thread. It has caused me to want to learn more about

the lymph system. Think I'll spend some time this weekend researching.

Thanks for planting the idea in my mind, Darth Suzi and Obi Wan Sylvia.
