Where do you get your Calcium?

---

    I’ve been using Dr. Christopher's bulk Calc Tea powder for many years, I add a teaspoon to my smoothie in the morning. I’ve fallen a number of times in the past three years and not broken any bones. One of my falls I hit my collar bone and was amazed that it didn’t break. I had a feeling that my bones must be pretty good! I recently had my bone density checked and found that my bone density is way above that of people my age, and I attribute that to the good herbal calcium that I eat every day.

    Dr. Christopher always taught people to use herbs to get the right kind of calcium for building strong bones and teeth. This is vitally important for the developing child as well as all of the rest of us, for all of our lives.

    “Dr. Christopher’s Herbal Calcium Formula/Calc Tea in bulk is a wonderful natural calcium capsule, extract or tea or powder made up of horsetail grass, oat straw, comfrey root and lobelia. As explained in the book "Biological Transmutations," the silica in horsetail grass converts to calcium, and the other herbs work in close conjunction with this master calcium herb. We need calcium for nerve sheath, vein and artery walls, bone, teeth, etc. This combination is all pure herbs. It is also used for cramps, "Charlie horses," and for all calcium needs in the body.

     Children with crowded, crooked teeth who later must have the wisdom teeth pulled because of a too narrow jaw are lacking calcium in the body. The pregnant woman should increase her natural calcium intake now for two people, so as to build for the child a good wide jaw and tooth material. Sugars, pastries, soft and alcoholic beverages, breads, candies, etc., leach the calcium out of the body, causing varicose veins, cramps, Charlie horses, loss of teeth, nervous upsets, etc. [Herbal Home Healthcare book page.185]”

    Dr. Christopher’s Herbal Calcium is available in capsules, extract and a child version called Kid-e-Calc. It is also available in bulk under the name of Calc Tea in powder and cut. We also have a page where we sell a “kit” to make 3.5 lbs of powder or cut/tea for larger families. Any way you use it, this is going to be the best calcium you can put into your body! Here’s a link to the Herbal Legacy page to learn more about Herbal Calcium.

Does Herbal Calcium Really Work? Yes it does!

    People have been lead to believe for many years that milk is the best source for calcium. A new study has found that people don't get stronger bones by taking traditional supplements or from eating dairy products. In 1944 Dr. Christopher wrote an article titled The Dairy King about a man that kept breaking his bones in spite of being a very big milk drinker.

   Dr. Christopher taught that our bodies are able to use the calcium when we get it from plant sources. Dr. Christopher's  Herbal Calcium Formula is a wonderful all natural plant source calcium formula. The silica in horsetail grass converts to calcium and the other herbs work in close conjunction with this master calcium herb.
    We need calcium to build strong nerve sheaths, vein and artery walls, bones, teeth, etc. This combination is helpful for cramps, successful pregnancies, healthy bones, teeth, hair, skin and nails, healthy eyes and for all calcium needs in the body. Herbal Calcium is available in capsules, extract and bulk as Calc Tea in both cut and powder.

    A few years ago I had a bone density test and it came back with really high results. The person testing it was amazed because most people that are my age usually show bone loss. I have been taking the Herbal Calcium for many years and will continue to do so, knowing that it really does work!

What color is your calcium?

Everyone knows calcium is white, right?  The kind of calcium that your body can use is actually green.  If you have been eating white calcium your whole life you may now have calcifications in your body.  Inorganic calcium will deposit into your joints, form kidney stones and gall stones  because your body can’t use that kind of calcium.  Pretty sad to think that you have been eating something that you thought was good for you and is actually harming you. Then to top it all off Dr. Christopher taught us that sugars, pastries, soft and alcoholic beverages, white breads, candies, etc., leach the calcium out of the body, causing varicose veins, cramps, Charlie horses, loss of teeth, nervous upsets, etc.  That is really upsetting if you are having any of these problems.

    Now for the good news, switching to the right kind of calcium can reverse these problems.  Where do you find the right kind of calcium?  The type that can be assimilated is from herbs, fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts and seeds. In other words, from real food, not the food that is fortified in the process of manufacturing, but eating it in the form it was originally grown.

    Dr. Christopher formulated a wonderful calcium blend called Herbal Calcium.  Dr. Christopher recommend herbal calcium for teething babies, pregnant women, people with varicose veins, people with nerve issues, migraines, broken bones, insomnia and more.  You can read more about it on the Herbal Legacy website.

    Here at Herbs First we carry the full line of Dr. Christopher products.  Herbal Calcium comes in capsules, extract, as Kid-e-Calc for children, and in bulk as Calc Tea.  For people that want to save even more and get a larger amount we have the kit where you buy one of each of the individual herbs and mix them together to get the correct formulation. You will end up with 3.5 lbs of Herbal Calcium for $65.00 by mixing it yourself.  This amount will last my husband and I about six months and we blend it in with our Jurassic Green and drink it down.  Note that you want to be able to use bulk herbs within a year of opening them. 

  Dr. Christopher has been teaching these principles since the 1940’s.  His booklet The Three Day Cleanse and Mucusless Diet is free with a $50.00 herb order.  Put in the coupon code 99104 at checkout. 

Staying Healthy With Plant Based Vitamins & Minerals

I was recently tested by a ZYTO machine and one of the results was that my vitamins, minerals and other nutrients were high. The gal that tested me was amazed and said that I was the first person that she tested that had enough vitamins and minerals in them. I eat Vitalerbs, Herbal Calcium and Jurassic Green which are food based vitamins and minerals. On top of that I get a green smoothie in most days that is packed full of raw spinach, chia seeds and fruit, as well as getting in as much other raw foods as I can throughout the day. It was nice to get some proof that the herbal based vitamins are being used by my body and not just flushed down the toilet, and that my diet is making a difference! I test well on NuSkin’s BioPhotonic Scanner as well which shows that you don’t have to buy pricey vitamins to be healthy.

Dr. Christopher always taught people to eat mainly from a plant based diet and that is what will make the most difference in your health. Vitamins and minerals from plants are readily available and easily used by your body. Dr. Christopher taught pregnant women to use Herbal Calcium to provide calcium to the growing baby. If calcium is not available to the fetus, then calcium will be robbed from the woman’s body to provide that nutrient to the growing fetus. That is why so many women lose their teeth and have problems with osteoporosis. We have a great buy on Herbal Calcium in the mix your own formula, 3.5 lbs of Herbal Calcium for under $60.00. That will last my husband and I six months taking a heaping teaspoon daily. I had a bone density test a few years ago and I tested high for my age!

My husband and I both take a heaping teaspoon of Jurassic Green and six capsules of Vitalerbs every day. I take Hormonal Changease and he takes Male Urinary Tract Formula. We both add Maca Root and Ginkgo to our Jurassic Green which is mixed in fresh squeezed orange juice. We are doing what we can, but still get sick about once every year and a half or so, usually due to overwhelming stress. I think we are doing better than most people and we are working every day to eat better, get our exercise in and de-stress. Mindtrac helps a lot, we have both been taking it since my husband lost his job over two years ago.

As I watch and notice how other people my age and older look, and what their health is like, the harder I work on myself. I know what I am supposed to do, it isn’t the popular way, but who wants to be that kind of popular? It certainly is cheaper to
take care of ourselves with herbs and eat right, than to end up with one disease or another.

Herbal formulas for Varicose Veins

When I hear of people's health issues my thought are often, “we have an herb for that”. It feels good to have that knowledge! Quite often when I tell people about natural options they aren’t interested. I am amazed that so many people are not open minded enough to give simple herbal remedies a try.

Varicose veins can be easily cleared up when you understand the cause and use the procedures to heal them. On the Varicose Veins page at Herbal Legacy we learn that improper diet has leached the calcium from the veins, sugar being the main culprit. There are quite a few herbal suggestions on the page that have been very successful. Increasing calcium intake with a good herbal based calcium such as Herbal Calcium will be of great benefit as well as eating a more plant based diet.

Christopher’s recently released two herbal formulas to make it easy to heal Varicose Veins. V-Vein Formula contains herbs that are specific and time tested in treating varicose veins. The number one herb is Japanese Pagoda flower buds. This herb has been shown to strengthen and fix the permeability of the veins cellular walls. Bilberries support normal formation of connective tissues and protect veins from further damage. Gotu Kola, Ginger and Hawthorne improve peripheral circulation and strengthen cellular tissues. Butcher’s broom contains rutin and ruscogenins that decrease swelling. Marshmallow root is the best soothing and anti-inflammatory herb. Collinsonia root is the most effective herb for hemorrhoids, which is a terrible type of varicose veins. V-Vein Formula works at the problem from the inside. V-Vein formula is available in capsules

V-Vein massage oil is a holistic topical oil for Varicose Veins including Hemorrhoids. V-Vein massage oil contains Horse Chestnut Seed, Colinsonia Root, Oak Bark, Evening Primrose Oil, Lemon Peel, Rue Herb, Arnica Oil, Pine Needle Oil & Lemon Oil. Dr. Christopher’s V-Vein Massage Oil is skillfully prepared in a pure base of extra virgin olive oil with herbs and pure essential oils to bring healing relief to help soothe and nourish the problem of Varicose Veins. Apply to the affected area several times a day and use along with the V-Vein Formula. V-Vein Massage Oil is available in oil.

Gentle, safe, and effective perfectly describes the V-Vein Formula and Massage Oil.

Osteoporosis

I went to a Holistic Health Fair over the weekend and got to enjoy lots of raw foods including raw chocolate sweetened with dates, so good! One of the vendors had a bone density machine and I have been curious how my bones are doing since both my Mom and Grandmother had osteoporosis. The great news was that for my age my bone density level is above normal and the guy told me to keep doing what ever it is that I am doing.

I rarely ever drink soft drinks, which are well known for leaching calcium from the bones. To keep my bones strong I eat Herbal Calcium which is a great combo of herbs that are high in calcium. We have it available in capsules, extract, bulk and for those that want to save money as a mix your own formula. I like to get the mix your own formula because you get 3.5 pounds of powder for $58.00. I add a heaping teaspoon in with the Jurassic Green that I drink every day.

Another product that is great for rebuilding bones is the Complete Tissue and Bone Formula. This formula has been a life saver for me over the years. First when I was battling Rheumatoid Arthritis, and later with occasional injuries. It is a great one for rebuilding bones for any reason including osteoporosis.

Smokers often get osteoporosis as well as women who have gone through menopause. Women that are menopausal would do well to add Hormonal Changease to balance the hormones, as well as Vitamin D which most people are low in. Foods that are high in Calcium and Vitamin D are broccoli, cabbage, kale, watercress, alfalfa, cod liver oil and sun exposure.

Varicose Vein & Spider Vein Treatment

I have been seeing more advertisements on TV lately for Varicose Vein and Spider Vein Treatments. In the past ligation (tying off the vein) and stripping were the norm for the procedure. Now through Sclerotherapy a very small needle is used to inject a solution into the affected vein, causing it to close down and dry up. I know this might sound like a good idea to a lot of people, and I even know people that have had some of these procedures done, but think about it, aren’t the veins there for a reason? Wouldn’t it be better to go to the cause and fix the problem, because if the veins you see are having problems doesn’t it mean that there are veins with problems that you can’t see?

Dr. Christopher states that “sugars, pastries, soft drinks and alcoholic beverages, breads, candies, etc., leach the calcium out of the body, causing varicose veins, cramps, charlie horses, loss of teeth, nervous upsets, etc. “[SNH p.531] Here is what Dr. Christopher taught about Herbal Calcium: “We need calcium for nerve sheath, vein and artery walls, bone, teeth, etc. This combination is all pure herbs. It is also used for cramps, "Charlie horses" and for all calcium needs in the body.” If you have varicose veins then your body is telling you that it needs calcium.

Getting more calcium is going to help many problems that are caused by low calcium levels in the body, but what do you do about the varicose veins? It really is a simple solution that anyone can do at home. Make a strong White Oak Bark tea, simmering it gently until it reduced to one-forth. I would use a heaping teaspoon of herb to one cup of water, steep for 15 minutes, strain and then simmer down to 4 oz of liquid. Then soak stockings of white cotton in the concentrated tea and wear them, covering them with plastic, all night. Cut off the foot part of the sock to pull it up to where it is needed. I would do this nightly for six nights a week, also drinking a cup of regular strength tea 3 - 4 times a day, or taking 2 capsules 3 - 4 times a day for a few months. You can read Dr. Christopher's complete article at Herbal Legacy.

By correcting the problem we are avoiding worse problems in the future. I think that it is a blessing to have the varicose veins inform you that you are low on calcium so you can correct it. Bone loss with osteoporosis is much harder to deal with, so avoid that and other problems by building your body up with a good source of plant based calcium.

White Oak Bark is available in bulk 4 oz, 8 oz. & 16 oz., as well as Western Botanicals capsules and extract.

Herbal Calcium is available in capsules, extract, bulk with Comfrey, and as a mix your own formula.

You can purchase these herbs and others at Herbs First.
