Western Botanicals Single Capsules

Western Botanicals Single Extracts

I looked in my cupboard to see how many single herbs I have and was amazed how many I have. They are very useful for healing and worth learning about and keeping on hand.

Here are a few that I use, just a small list to give you an idea of how wonderful single herbs can be. I have some in extract and some in capsules and I’ll let you know which ones I use, but they are both great to use. The links go to The Herbal Legacy website that is run by The School of Natural Healing.

Cayenne – I have both capsules and extract. This is a Dr. Christopher favorite and the one he feels turned around his heart problems. He liked to take the powder in water and I have done that from time to time, but I struggle with the hot in my mouth. I have the extract and will use it in an emergency, since it can immediately stop a heart attack and stroke. I use the capsules when mosquitos are out, if I am getting a migraine with those weird eye symptoms or if I’m cold.

Dandelion – I use both capsules & extract, bulk is also available. Amazing herb! I used this back when I wat hit with arthritis and had gout in my feet. I wouldn’t wish gout on anyone, it is very painful. Dandelion helped to break up the uric acid crystals and make life bearable. Click here to read my arthritis story.

Ginger – love this one and use capsules, also available in extract. I would take it all throughout my period from right before it starts to the end and no cramping. I use it for travel and is the great for car/air sickness if taken beforehand. It really works and doesn’t make you all drowsy like the Dramamine does!

Kava Kava – I use capsules at night – 2 at bedtime, its relaxing and I don’t have problems with leg cramps or Charlie horses. I wake up feeling good in the morning. Available in bulk and extract as well.

Lobelia – I have extract. A lifesaver for people with lung/bronchial issues. I’ve woken up in the night with a heaviness in my chest and had the feeling I need to get up right now and take Lobelia. After taking it I’m able to cough up the phlegm and get back to sleep.

Black Walnut & Pau D’Arco – I have used both Black Walnut extract and Pau D'Arco extract  when I was doing the Candida program. It took me a good 9 months of being faithful to finally overcome that crazy situation. I feel so much better now and it is wonderful to not have those crazy sugar cravings and other awful candida symptoms!

Some single herbs are available in syrup as well as capsules and extract, 2 oz & 4 oz. sizes. Capsules are bottles of 100 for the single herbs. Bulk is cut, powder and whole, 4, 8 & 16 oz.

Being aware of symptoms

    My body talks to me and I try to listen. Last week a joint on my foot above my big toe told me it wasn’t happy. Lucky for me it was only in one joint, but it was painful enough that I was limping around all day. I started taking the Complete Tissue and Bone formula along with the Joint Formula throughout the day. By 7:00 pm I was worried that I hadn’t made any progress and with the 4th of July coming up I really did not want to wake up the next morning with my foot still hurting. If I’m not on top of these arthritis flare-ups they can last from a few days to sometimes a few weeks with more joints joining in on the fun. Since the pain was in my foot I decided to try some Dandelion extract, which is what I used years ago when I suffered with gout. I took a squirt right away and another squirt before I went to bed along with more Complete Tissue and Bone and Joint Formula. When I got up the next morning I went about my work all day and it wasn’t until I was going to bed that night that I realized my foot wasn’t hurting.  I was very happy with the next day being the 4th of July knowing that I could participate in the planned activities pain-free.

    I try to be aware of any changes in my body so that if a symptom crops up I can address the problem before it develops into a more serious situation.  It takes not only being aware of a change, but also having the herbs on hand that I may need. Most herbs treat many different symptoms, so it is helpful to have a variety of formulas as well as some well chosen single herbs on hand to choose from. 

    Dandelion was truly a lifesaver for me when I was working on clearing up the Rheumatoid Arthritis years ago.  I had gout so badly in my feet that I couldn’t wear shoes because it hurt too much to have anything touching my feet.  The Dandelion did an amazing job of breaking up the uric acid crystals that feel like you are walking on shards of broken glass in your feet.  This is one herb that I will always have in my herb cabinet.  Click to read my arthritis story

    Here is a short list of ailments that Dandelion can help with: Acne, Anemia, Arthritis, Asthma, Blood Purifier, Blood Cleanser, Breast Cancer and tumors, Eczema, Gall Bladder cleanser, Gout, Hepatitis, Hypoglycemia, Jaundice, Kidney Infections, Liver Disorders, Metabolism stimulator,  Rheumatism, Scurvy, Skin Problems, Water Retention, Weight loss and more.  This little weed is truly an amazing healing herb!  Try using the "milk" from the stem of a dandelion on your wart.  Apply for about a week and then watch it slowly fade away.  Talk about affordable medicine!

    I love using herbs to keep myself and my family healthy. The School of Natural Healing has a great deal on their online Family Herbalist course. If you are ready to take more responsibility for your health, this would be the place to start with that education.
