Two more great formulas for Cold & Flu Season

We talked about Dr. Christopher’s Super Garlic Immune Formula and Western Botanicals ImmuDefense in our blog a few weeks ago. These are great formulas and work really well. I like to have a variety of herbal formulas on hand so that my body doesn’t become immune and stop responding so I have a few other favorites I rely on.

Western Botanicals Echinacea and Goldenseal will boost the immune system and assist in fighting infections. This is a really great and simple formulation that is very effective in getting things turned around when you take it at the first sign of illness. Don’t wait and let things set in, take it right at the beginning and you can avoid getting sick. Available in capsules, 2 oz and 4 oz extract and 2 oz and 4 oz syrup!

Dr. Christopher’s X-INFX formula. I had to laugh a few weeks ago, this formula keeps changing names and I had to call and ask how do I pronounce this name? I sure wish the FDA would quit insisting on name changes with these great products, because honestly, I am having a hard time keeping track of what some formulas are currently named! This in the famous Infection Formula, formerly INF and Lymphatic Formula. Whatever the name, this is a great formula! It helps to clear the lymph system so that the body can fight infections. It is available in capsules and bulk powder and is a must have for your herb cabinet!

We sell these and other great healing herbal formulas and essential oils at Herbs First. Free shipping in the United States on your $75.00 order! Order online or phone in your order at 801-228-1901. Email me and I can send you links to help you learn more about what you need to know!

Have you tried Deep Heat Ointment for muscles issues?

Fall marks the time when homeowners are out cleaning up the yard to get it ready for winter. We stained our fence a few weeks ago and I can honestly say that staining the fence was hard work. My husband and I worked on it together using paint brushes and rollers. After rolling a few of the 6’ slats I realized that was hard on my back. I suggested that he do the upper fence and I would do the lower sitting on a stool. That worked much better than doing the whole 6’ height. We are on the tail end of the leaf cleanup now and I think we are about done with the yard for the year.

I’ve been watching a neighbor work on his house the last few weeks, he had a big project going on and it appeared that his back was hurting. He confirmed that he was struggling with all the work.

My favorite ointment for back problems and any other sore muscles is Western Botanicals Deep Heat Ointment. It is a combination of their Deep Heat Oil and CTR Ointment and it’s a very healing blend. The smell is amazing too. I love how it penetrates into the skin and you feel that deep heating right into the muscles to help relieve the pain and soreness. Available in 5 oz and 16 oz sizes.

Wishing you the best as you strive to care of your family!
