Comparing Natural Medicine to Conventional Medicine

    I have talked to quite a few people lately that have discontinued using herbal medicine.  I couldn’t understand why, so I started asking them about it.  They mention that herbs cost money and drugs are free, so they are going the free route. This wasn’t the case several years ago when we had many people using herbs because they couldn’t afford the cost of medication.  I know how times can be hard for people and free sounds good, but is free worth it? 

    There is a huge difference in how natural medicine works in your body versus man made chemical drugs. I love how when I use natural medicine I can feel the healing happening.  Conventional medicine can’t heal a badly sprained ankle in six hours, but herbs can.  Conventional medicine can’t cure arthritis, but herbs can. I know because this happened to me!  Conventional medicine has many negative side effects causing you to need more drugs – herbs heal without negative side effects.

Comparing Natural Medicine to Conventional Medicine

Main Focus of Natural Healing: To create a healthy person.

What we do with Symptoms in Natural Healing: Let our body guide us in the healing process by listening to the symptoms.

Natural Healing Method: Create a proper living environment so that the body can heal itself. This is accomplished through changes in diet, cleansing and nourishing with herbs, positive thinking and lifestyle changes.

Products used in Natural Healing: Wholesome foods such as fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts, seeds, vegetable juices, herbs and essential oils. No side effects.

Modalities used in Natural Healing: Wholesome food program, cleansing & detoxification, exercise, hydrotherapy, emotional therapy and lifestyle changes.

Emotions people have that use Natural Healing: Positive attitude toward healing through following wholesome food programs, cleansing & nourishing. Control of your healing.

People that use Natural Healing: Recognize the fact that past habits created the level of health, and take responsibility of making the changes necessary to heal themselves. Being in control.

Main Focus of Conventional Medicine: Destroy, kill or cut out a disease or malfunctioning body part.

How Conventional Medicine uses Symtoms: Different methods are used to suppress or remove the symptoms. The symptom is thought of as a disease and is treated as such, never getting to the cause of why those symptoms are present.

Conventional Medicine Method: Attack, kill and remove disease using drugs, radiation or surgery. Alter or remove malfunctioning parts or organs such as mastectomy, hysterectomy, tonsillectomy, radiation, etc.

Products used in Conventional Medicine: Drugs made from chemicals, animal waste and toxic elements. Many side effects which starts the drug cycle of more and more medication to alleviate the symptoms.

Modalities used in Conventional Medicine: Surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, steroids, dialysis, colostomies, insulin, etc.

Emotions some people have that use Conventional Medicine: Negative attitude, coping, fear, anxiety, depression. The complete feeling that your life is in someone else's hands.

Many people that use Conventional Medicine: Feel that they are an unlucky victim that caught a disease. Feel helpless and want others to "fix" them. Total lack of control and responibility for the predicament they find themselves in.

    As you can see there is a big difference in how these medicines work. I  choose natural medicine and have always had great results with it. I don't want to have my body parts cut out or replaced, I want to keep what I have in good working condition!  It is my hope that this blog will help people realize their health is in their hands, and that our bodies can heal if we feed it what it needs.

There Are No Incurable Diseases!

    Dr. Christopher taught that there are no incurable diseases, only incurable people. If people will follow the incurables program they will get well. Most people won’t do it.  I have talked to many people over the years, with quite a few of them being neighbors with cancer.  When I tell them about the program, the incurable people will always say, “I’m not going to do that”.  They continue doing what they were doing and die.  It was the “acceptable” way of dying, because they did everything their doctor recommended.  Order the booklet here.

Below is an email from a long-time customer who has given me permission to share her story with you.

Hi Kathryn,

    You know, when I first found out that I had such an aggressive cancer (Inflammatory Breast Cancer), the first month I spent getting my head in gear for the fight ahead.  My immediate family was very supportive and would help keep out any negative people or comments.  I was too vulnerable at this time. I have a wonderful husband who took a week off to get me started on a routine, my parents, and seven kids (ages 15-33) who have been a tremendous help, I couldn't have done this without them.  Most important is the time I had to focus on The Lord and find His direction.  Through Him I truly felt empowered, almost as if this were going to be an adventure--I know that sounds strange, but I have God's grace to go through this!

    After the vulnerable phase, I was able to take on those family and friends who think I should go get cut, burned and poisoned.  But, it always comes down to my decision!  This is the way I chose and I know I made the right decision.  I've spent great times with my family, we're all closer than ever!  I haven't been sick.  I still have my hair--and it's never looked healthier!  If I were to die from this--yet I don't think I will--I wouldn't trade this time for being mutilated, burned and nauseated all the time--this would make me very grumpy and my poor family would have sad, sick last memories of me.  Not gonna happen!

    I've got to tell you that I've spent many years studying Dr. Christopher's teachings, but only short times here and there.  My husband was self-employed and we didn't have health insurance--we wanted to be responsible with our health and had to look for something else.  Little did I know this was going to be one of our greatest blessings, as I had to look for an alternative to orthodox medicine. That's when I heard about Dr. Christopher and how he treated people using God-given herbs.  He was an incredibly knowledgeable man and had such a heart for people.  I tried to get as much information on his teachings as I could.  I even received a scholarship for the SNH, but didn't finish.  I'm sure I will now!  It helps to go through an ordeal first-hand, I've learned so much!  And yet, realize I have so much more to learn!  Because of this training, the alternative method wasn't so foreign to my family.  This is why they are so supportive, it's natural to them.

    A lot of my friends are natural-health minded, but there are many who aren't. What's ironic is that the friends that aren't like-minded will ask if I have something for what ails them.  I guess it takes time to teach/show people that there's another way, then being there when they're ready to listen or have a need.  During vulnerable times, I just stayed away from the well-meaning friends or family that strongly believe I needed to go get cut, burned and poisoned. 

    You don't know how many times I referred to "Herbal Legacy" to gather more information to help me through this.  Also during this ordeal, I would become fearful of the "Cancer" word, then The Lord would remind me of the definition from the website and it would again put things into perspective and I knew it could be overcome.  Now I'm in the final phases of this program!  Since the cancer's blood supply bled out last month, which was a huge relief physically (my breast inflamed to the size of a honey-dew melon and was quite uncomfortable) the cancer is constantly coming out in the poultices!  I also have fibroid tumors--I previously knew of only one, but I probably have about a dozen of them.  One tumor has already passed through one of the wounds and it was filled with cancer.  The other tumors are gathering in that area; it looks like they will be exiting soon!  This whole process has been amazing!  It shouldn't be long and I'll be applying healing poultices!  I will then go for another thermogram to make sure all the cancer is gone.

    Again, I can't tell you enough how pleased I am with the "Curing the Incurables" program, along with your great service!  Over the years, I have always received great service, great newsletters and great prices from Herbs First, but now when it's so important to me, I've looked back to see what an important job you have and that you all have served faithfully!   Thank you!!!!!

Using Lung & Bronchial for Hayfever

    I have used Lung and Bronchial Formula for many years and it is one that I have reached for often. This hay fever season  I keep getting phlegm in my throat, where I am coughing and clearing my throat often, as well as being stuffy.  I decided to see if Lung and Bronchial would take care of all of these symptoms. I have been taking it for three weeks now and have been pleasantly surprised by the fact that Lung & Bronchial breaks up the phlegm, and clears my nose as well. I am no longer coughing or have that choking feeling I sometimes get when the phlegm is thick and sticky.  This formula keeps the lungs and bronchial system clear and is very useful to people with Asthma, Bronchitis, Tuberculosis, CPOD and Hayfever! Order Lung and Bronchial capsules, extract or bulk as Resp-Free.

    For the uncontrollable itchiness that hits me in my throat, nose, eyes and ears, I still take Immucalm, which has always worked wonders for that symptom. These are two great natural products that aren’t going to make you sleepy or affect you adversely in any other way.  I love that I can take care of myself with herbs. Herbs are affordable and the only side affects are the ones that they are used for!  Order Immucalm capsules today!

    Quite a few people have been asking for the HCG for weight loss lately.  We still have a small supply, you will have to call to place an order for it.  Feel free to call me if you have any questions about any of the products we carry.  801-228-1901.

Have a great month!
