Guest guest Posted September 3, 2000 Report Share Posted September 3, 2000 Here is a very good site to research your herbs; http://www.vitamins.com/encyclopedia/Index/HERBX.HTM . Re: Herbs Does anyone know anything about the herbs Burdock and Black Cohosh. I have been using this menopause cream and have had to go off it after 2 weeks. Here we go again. How come I am so sensetative. The last 2 days I have had pecular and frightening heart beats and problems and really hyper, so much energy, and yesterday sweating all day long and then at lunch I was zapped. Now I have this darkness around my eyes and tired. It got rid of my meno headaches okay but now they are back since being off the cream. I am just waiting for my tests to come back to go on progesterone cream. Such is life. Oh to be so healthy that you can jog and exercise.

Guest guest Posted September 3, 2000 Report Share Posted September 3, 2000 Hi Sherry! Sorry to hear you are not doing OK. From " Advanced Treatise in Herbology " by Shook I found: BURDOCK; Properties: Alterative (modifies nutrition), aperient (mild purgative), depurative, diuretic, diaphoretic (herbs that produce sweating), antiscorbutic. Uses: Rheumatism, gout, pulmonary catarrh, chronic skin diseases (psoriasis, acne, etc.) syphilis, scrofula, cancer, urinary deposits. Externally: Swelling, hemorrhoids, burns, wounds, eruptions. It has a 40% of inulin (also called alantoin). It is very similar to starch. It is a resinoid or camphor-like hydrocarbon that is aromatic, stimulant, expectorant, tonic, stomachic, antiseptic. BLACK COHOSH: Therapeutic Properties: Nervine, tonic, antispasmodic, alterative, diuretic, expectorant, emmenagogue (remedies which stimulate menstruation) and induces free perspiration. Get well!

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2001 Report Share Posted January 4, 2001 So you have read the same info about rosemary? In the herbal materia medica that Hoffman writes he didn't mention any cautions about rosemary. I have heard conflicting info about rosemary. It seems to really work well for me personally. I infuse a " stalk " about 8 or 9 inches long in water to make tea and usually drink this about in a day or two. I wonder what " large " amounts would be? I would also love to see the research on this herb. Thanks for your response and happy new year! Angie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 5, 2001 Report Share Posted February 5, 2001 I find that concoctions work the best, followed by teas, then tinctures, and then the herb in capsule form. We usually use tinctures, because of ease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2001 Report Share Posted February 5, 2001 Does anyone know if liquid forms of herbs are better than pill forms? I found that the liquid works for me but anything in a pill form doesn't seem to have any affect. Am I digesting the pills? I am currently taking propolis for an infection and the pills did not work at all but as soon as I got the liquid form I got results in 24 hours.

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2001 Report Share Posted February 6, 2001 Thank you for this...It explains a lot! One question... how do I know when to use the different methods? Is there a rule or does it depend on what I am curing and if I need the plant itself or the just the tincture? I have many wonderful resources but they don't tell me what form to buy just the herb itself. Thanks again. Margaret White " Phyllis " <georgic@sals " Clarity " <clarity@...>, <Vaccinations > giver.com> cc: " Vac_Homeopathic List " <Vac_HomeopathicListonelist> Subject: herbs 02/06/2001 02:49 PM Please respond to Vaccinations Dear Margaret, I must agree with you. Tinctures (liquid) forms of herbs are only the tincted (color) of the herbs in the distilled water or the alcohol or a mixture of each....This is similar to a tea bag in hot water.... There is nothing of the original body of the herb. These are in the capsule form. In the capsule there is the ground up materials of the herb..i.e. leaves, flowers, buds, blossoms, berries, fruits, stems, roots, or resums (tuber root bulbs) of the medicinal herb. There are many benefits of one that is not in the other and visa versa. There are times when you need to eat the herb raw. Infusions of the flowers of red clover make a wonderful tasting and beneficial tea when making it from fresh picked flower verses the dried flowers that would be sold in bulk or in a tea bag.... Swallowing the dried herbs in the capsule form may be a quick method of consuming the " body " of the herbs, but many benefits are lost because you are not obtaining the enzymes that would be conferred through the live plant. Taking that plant and pouring hot water over it while it is just picked, fresh and raw also may loose some of the benefits. Eating the Herb raw is the best method,....but many of the herbs are difficult for humans to consume just chewing and swallowing that raw material... The dried material is now dead and has lost many medicinal conponents.... Drinking the infusion in hot water extracts only a small portion of the essence of that live material..... Eating after it has been boiled or anything that was floating in the infusion is best to do, but again may still be difficult to digest properly.. Must of the celluose is just roughage in the intestine and thus the benefits are wasted.... The only real methods that I have found to use HERBS is in the spagyric herbal technique that I had spoke of earlier last week. Since the product is oft time made as an infusion but eh benefits of the mineral content is reintroduced into the tincture, this makes it much better for the system and for the pocketbook to boot. Since you need not drink 6 to 8 ounces of it as you would have to do in tea (infusion) form... Or the large amount of celluose that must be consumed by swallowing several capsules of the herb as the dose..... Two to five drops of the spagyric herbal essence is equal to several ounces of the infusionor several capsules of the celluose fibre. As a homeopath, who uses homeopathic remedies to do the stimualtion to the systems in sympathy to its symtomology, I want an herbal that is quick acting, with a little chemistry as possible, with the most benefit from the herbal that may not interfer with the homeopathic remedy, I opt for using spagyrics...

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2001 Report Share Posted February 7, 2001 Thanks again. I am working on healing myself from a several things that are not currently severe but could be if left uncured for. Because I do not have a lot of money, I cannot see my natural healing doctor as much as I would like and so far it seems like he is guessing as much as I, trying to find the solution that will work. I guess it is a matter of finding what works for me. I appreciate your help. Blessings Be. Margaret White " Phyllis " <georgic@sals <Vaccinations > giver.com> cc: Subject: herbs 02/06/2001 08:59 PM Please respond to Vaccinations Margaret, It is really the judgment of the Practitioner that you use or you will just have to use your own judgment.....testing the situation for yourself. Everyone is different and your needs may be ones that are different from someone else's... I explained that herbal spagyrics are my methods of using homeopathic remedies and herbs,....but I only use them as tonics or as need for immediate situations. I do drink herbal teas of fresh and of dried flowers as food but hardly ever as medicine.... I love a tea of fresh Chrysanthemum flowers. It is delightful with a natural sweetness. Fresh Red Clover flower tea is my second choice. I do not necessarily use them medicinally even though both have those applications. I like them as beverages. I drink the occasionally... I never overdo any foods or beverages that are medicinal... This is the suggestion that I also make to others. There are homeopathic remedies of these and other herbs and foods such as garlic, onions, chamomile, coffee, tea, cow's milk, sugar, echinacea to name a few. Overdoing any of these foods or herbs will cause the problems that they are set to heal. So be always vigilant when it comes to herbals as you would with drug therapies...

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2002 Report Share Posted March 22, 2002 Dear Beverly, Below I am pasting in portions of an e mail I just got from an old friend I hadn't seen in 20 years who is now a chiropractor. This is the complementary protocol he was advising, after I explained my condition to him. As far as specific veggies, radishes, and cultivated burdock are good for the liver. Dandelion roots are good. Figs are the highest source of minerals of any of the common fruits and vegetables, and also a rich source of the same polyphenols found in green tea and red wine, without the caffeine and alcohol. Freshly ground flaxseeds and some ginger are also excellent. >>So, eat mostly fruits and veggies, of all sorts, organic when possible, water as the majority beverage, and whole grains. I am not big on cow products because of the mucus factor and the sluggishness it cause the liver and mucus membranes. But you have to get protein somewhere...it looks to me like you need more complete protein. Tofu and other soy products would be best. I assume that you are still a vegetarian. Regarding suplementation: 1) Daily; take a broad spectrum, high potency multivit and min. combo, such as Multigenics Intensive Care. 2) Hepatacin...2-3 tabs , 2-3 tomes per day;This is an ayurvedic herbal preparation for liver health and regeneration...it is documented to be of value inn Hep... two of these tabs supply a proprietary blend of 4:1 herbal extracts...1000mg of Hellebore Root, Spreading Hog Weed Whole Plant, Andrographis Aerial Parts, Chicory Seed, Ginger Rhizome, Amla Fruit, Indian Gall Fruit, Embellia Fruit, Phyllanthus Aerial Parts, Trailing Eclipta Leaf and Root and Arjuna Myrobalan Bark. 3) Lipogen...1-2 tabs each meal...this is a gereat lipotrophic formula for the support of liver function 4) 4-6000 mg of vit C to increase the functional immune syst. stimulating properties. 5) Lipoic Acid...2-3 caps per day 2-3 times daily 6) Silymarin 80 2 tabs 3 times per day... This has Milk Thistle Seed Extract 7) And finally Selanese 2 caps 3X. This #6 combo protect the liver from free radicals, they are antioxidants that that interfere with viral proliferation. It has some sucessful clinical trials backing it up. Well that is about it. I would add that since the spinal nerves do everything and go everywhere including your liver and the immune system that you find a chiropractor to work on your spine with the intention of stimulating and impulsing the spinal nerves that go to the liver as well as spleen. The nervous system is the master system of the body. << __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 11, 2003 Report Share Posted February 11, 2003 Terina, I use herbs all the time, in salad, soup, meats, burritos, pancakes, protein drinks....you get the idea. I have an herb garden and a mint garden. I use all of the regulars....thyme, basil, oregeno, dill, majoram, rosemary, sage - I love pineapple sage - chamomile, feverfew, cilantro, parsley, etc....I also love peppermint and chocolate mint in puddings and chocolate shakes. I use anise seeds in vanilla, Stevia on just about anything I want to sweeten up and fennel in spaghetti sauce. I don't think one can go wrong with herbs.

Guest guest Posted October 12, 2003 Report Share Posted October 12, 2003 When milk thistle, or any other herb, can be proved scientifically that it helps the liver or does anything to help hepC I will believe it. Until then I won't. Herbs are not regulated by the FDA so they can stick anything they want to in them. They do not have to list their ingredients on the bottle. One never knows how much milk thistle, or any other herb, is actually in a bottle. I've never seen one single person say the milk thistle reduced liver damage, or lowered a viral load. Like the liver enzymes themselves, the viral load fluctuates naturally. Both go up and down. Neither are a good gauge of what is really going on in your liver.
