Cold and Flu fighters and Immune System Builders

    Many years ago I would be sick for Christmas and into the new year, usually for a total of six weeks. That was back when I was a sugar queen and didn't follow the mucusless diet. Dr. Christopher taught that if you ate right you didn't have to worry about plagues and I'm happy to say that with following the diet and being off of sugar I rarely get sick.

The top formula for colds and flu is Super Garlic Immune Formula and we used to go through lots of it at my house. Anti-Plague is about the worst tasting thing I have ever tasted, but is oh so good for you. I could feel myself getting better when I ate this. I take a tablespoon every 15 mintues to half an hour when things are really bad. It has powerful and amazing healing qualities. Buy Christopher's Super Garlic Immune formula in 4 oz and 16 oz sizes, or Western Botanicals version  Immu-Defense Syrup in 4, 8 and 16 oz or capsules. The capsules are great to have around for people that can't handle the strong garlic taste of the liquid, but I know lots of people that love the taste too!

Both Dr. Christopher’s and Western Botanicals have some great formulas to choose from when it comes to treating infants, children and adults. Since we are in the midst of winter and more and more people are getting sick, now would be a good time to order some formulas to keep everyone healthy.

I take something at the first sign of sickness such as sniffles, sore throat, fever, or just being exposed to sick people such as at school, church, work or shopping. Western Botanicals Immune Boost Syrup works to boost the immune system as well as kill bugs, and it so great tasting and easy to get kids to take.  Immune Boost is available in alcohol extract, great tasting syrup and capsules.

Dr. Christopher's Infection Formula helps move the toxins out of the blood stream and is a great infection fighter. I like to switch off the formulas I take so that my body doesn't get used to it. The Infection Formula has always been one of the top formula choices to have on hand. Order  Infection formula capsules.

I am still working on weak lungs from years of bronchitus in the past due to a steel mill that used to be in our community. It was a happy day when they closed it down and dismantled it.  I continue to take Dr. Christopher's Lung and Bronchial Formula during the winter months to keep my lungs strong. It is great formula for people with asthma, etc. and I can attest to the fact that it really does a great job of keeping the lungs nice and open. Lung and Bronchial Formula is available in capsules and extract.

A must have formula for any family is Western Botanicals Herbal Ear Drops. A 1 oz. bottle will last most families at least a year. My kids would get ear infections late at night and I would put a few drops in each ear and put a cotton ball in their ear to help hold the oil in. Usually with in 15 minutes they would quiet down and get a good night’s sleep. I keep it refrigerated and warm the bottle it in a glass of hot water. I recommend getting a new bottle every 2 years to keep it fresh. Order Herbal Ear Drops.

Cold Tonic is the recipe that was given out when I was going to The School of Natural Healing. Purchase all the ingredients fresh from the Grocery Store, it take two weeks to make, and is another great infection fighter to have on hand.

Cold Tonic

Raw Apple Cider Vinegar
1 part fresh chopped Garlic Cloves
1 part fresh chopped White Onion
1 part fresh grated Ginger Root
1 part fresh grated Horseradish Root
1 part fresh chopped Cayenne Peppers or the hottest peppers available, i.e. habanero, African Bird, etc.

Fill a glass jar 3/4 of the way full w/equal parts by volume (i.e. a cup of each) of the above fresh chopped and grated herbs. Then fill jar to the top with raw apple cider vinegar. Close and shake vigorously and then top off the vinegar if necessary.

Shake at least once a day for two weeks, then filter the mixture through cheesecloth and bottle and label. When you make this tonic shake it every time you walk by it, at least once per day but the more the better. All the herbs and vegetables should be fresh and organically grown if possible.

This tonic is extremely powerful, 1 tsp for kids and 1 tbsp for adults. Gargle if you have a sore throat and swallow. Do not dilute, take it straight.

Feel free to email me, or call me with any questions 1-801-228-1901.

Have a great month!

Baby It's Cold Outside!

Winter is not the best time to ship liquids to states that are experiencing very cold temperatures. We ship from Utah and it has been below freezing here for most of this new year.   Liquids can FREEZE in the winter months.  Alcohol extracts freeze at -10 degrees, glycerin at 15 degrees.  It may be best to wait until the weather is warmer or ship the quickest method. If you choose to order liquids in the winter we are NOT RESPONSIBLE for any breakage of bottles due to freezing. 

    We hope you are staying healthy, the reports we are hearing is this is the worst year in many years for colds and flu. Many classrooms in the schools have half of the children home sick. David and Fawn Christopher’s latest radio show addresses how to take care of sick people.  During Christmas they had quite a few sick family members they were taking care of.  Listen to the show to learn how to handle this situation. 

    We have written many blogs in the past that you can refer to for help with colds and flu.

    Learn how to make Anti-Plague which is Dr. Christopher’s amazing formula that will knock out just about any illness.  This is very potent and not for everyone but I can personally attest to the effectiveness of this formula.  We have a page with all the herbs in it to make it easy to order all the ingredients you need.  We also have it prepared as Dr. Christopher’s Super Garlic Immune Formula, or Western Botanicals Anti-Plague. This is a great formula to have on hand for cold & flu season.

    Still thinking about getting a flu shot??  Listen to the radio show and read this blog to learn about some great alternatives to help keep you healthy through the season. 

    Learn about a homemade cold tonic to help fight the bugs and other formulas to help get you back to being healthy.

    We love Western Botanicals and they have a lot of great formulas for colds and flu.  They have Anti-Plague in syrup and capsules, which is great for people that can’t handle the taste of they syrup.  Also many other formulas that are amazing for building the immune system to help you get well and stay well. Click on the link above to learn about more great formulas to help get you through the season.

    If you are sick or are getting sick, get off all the sugar and milk products.  Eat lots of citrus fruit including oranges & grapefruits.  Fruits and veggies will help the body to cleanse to help you to get over illness sooner.  Think light when it comes to food drink lots of juices and water. 

Please take care of yourselft and stay healthy this winter!!

Thinning Hair

A few years ago I was talking to a customer who was working with David Christopher on some health issues one of which was thinning hair. The combination that David came up with has been a good one that I have passed on to many people with great success. Take one bottle of Complete Tissue and Massage Oil (2 oz.) and add to it 60 drops of Rosemary Essential Oil. I combined this and sent it to my nephew who has alopecia and it has been somewhat helpful for his problem. About six months ago I was feeling like my hairline was receding and so I mixed up a bottle for myself and started using it on the affected area and it filled in nicely. I mentioned the problem to my sister and she replied that she was having the same problem and had been using it with great success as well. My husband has totally lost his hair and I think we are too late for him, too bad we didn’t know about this one 15 years ago. For people that are starting to have hairloss it would be well worth it to try it. I just massage it lightly into the affected area at bedtime and wash it out in the morning.

In the essential oil class that I took earlier in the year she told us to add the Rosemary to our conditioner which helps the hair to go from gray back to its original color. I just add a drop or two to the conditioner, rub it together in my hands and put it on my hair. Rosemary is for darker haired people, not for blondes. I don’t have very much gray at this point and would love to keep it that way. Also for balding is the BF and C Hair and Scalp Massage Formula, BF and C Shampoo and BF and C Conditioner.

With sugar being in abundance and will power being low, keep your immune system high with either Christopher’s Immune System Formula or Western Botanicals Immune Boost. As Benjamin Franklin said “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” As a preventative take either formula in the morning and evening. At the first sign of sickness do not eat any more sugar. Drink plenty of water and fresh squeezed orange juice, and add the Infection Formula or Anti Plague or any of the other great cold/flu fighting formulas to the Immune formula of choice. Stay off the sugar until you are well for several days. Here's a great link more infecion fighters and a great home-made Cold Tonic.

Have a healthy holiday season!
