Comparing Conventional Medicine to Natural Medicine

Dr. Christopher taught his patients how to eat right and use herbs to in order to be healthy. I love that there is so much information about eating right and using natural medicine on the internet. We have been striving to eat right and using natural medicine for many years and my husband remarks to me how much healthier we are than many people that we know. He tells me how grateful he is that I take such good care of him! I say back to him, “thank you for cooperating”!

I have talked to quite a few people that are trying to get their family on track with eating wholesome foods and using herbs, but many are really struggling with this! The battle is real, but just make those changes little by little and you will get there!

The choice is: are we going to keep eating whatever we want, and use conventional medicine to only get worse and worse, or are we going to change our diet and use the herbs and essential oils to help us maintain optimum health??

Dr. Christopher often said, this is a do it yourself plan. Learn what to do and then do it!
Comparing Conventional Medicine to Natural Medicine

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

How Conventional Medicine uses Symptoms: 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 responsibility for the predicament they find themselves in.

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 and 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 and 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.

    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 them. 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.

    At Herbs First we sell Dr. Christopher's, Western Botanicals and Garden Essence Oils and they are the best I have ever used. Pure and simple, they work. I hope that these products and this newsletter will help you on your road to continued good health. We don't just sell products, we know how to use them and we use them ourselves!

Time to order bulk herbs

Single bulk herbs are 10% off and it is a great time to start thinking about making some winter remedies to help keep your family healthy. Making your own remedies is very easy and you get so much more for your money.

I have been making Dr. Christopher’s famous Anti-Plague (click link for instructions)  for over 25 years. I used to make it about once every two years, but now we are much healthier and the kids are grown-up, so a batch will easily last me 10 or more years. I have used 12 year old Anti-Plague and it works just as good as a fresh batch! It might sound a bit involved, but just break it down into chunks. I would take 5 days making it and put it together on the last day. Once you make this you will feel empowered to make other things too! Order the herbs and other items to make Anti-Plague.

Elderberry Syrup (Elder Berry) is a great one to take during flu season. This is easy to make and a great remedy to help keep everyone from getting the flu. Learn how to make Elderberry Syrup.
Learn how to make an alcohol extract.
 

I’ve been making my own BF&C Ointment for over ten years. I found that I was allergic to the beeswax that is in all of the ointments, so I started making my own ointment using coconut oil as the base. I use it on all of my joints and on my face, neck & upper chest area. It’s keeping my skin looking great and people can’t believe that I am now 60! In this blog post I was using a smaller bottle of coconut oil. I now use two 84 oz. bottles of coconut oil from Costco, melt them, split the 16 oz. bag of BF&C cut between two - 2 quart jars and follow the same routine using the dehydrator to heat it for several days to a week. Coconut oil keeps longer than most oils, so it has been a great one to use to make the BF&C ointment.

Here’s a link to our Herbal Calcium kit. It’s easy, just order one of each item, mix them together and you have it! I add it to my smoothie and you really can’t taste it. A great way to get a plant-based calcium for your family. 

I have made other extracts and oils, feel free to email me, or call me. I love to talk to customers and am happy to answer your questions!

How to Make Dr Christopher's Hawthorn Berry Heart Syrup

By Dr. John Christopher

What You Need:
Dried or fresh hawthorn berries
Distilled water
Vegetable glycerin
Grape brandy
Amber/dark brown bottles

Step-by-Step:
1. If you are lucky enough to have a hawthorn tree, pick tons of berries off of your tree or use dried hawthorn berries that you will need to reconstitute with distilled water until they are their natural size. Fill a stainless steel pot with the berries to about 2 inches away from the top of the pot and then pour distilled water over the berries. There should be one inch of water above the berries.

2. Simmer the mixture for 20 minutes, making sure it never boils. Set the mixture aside in a warm place to steep for 20 minutes.

3. Strain off the liquid and transfer it to a clean container and set it aside. Now mash the simmered and strained berries with a potato masher or some similar utensil.

4. Cover the mashed berries with new distilled water covering
them with an inch of water above them.

5. Simmer these mashed berries and water for 20 minutes, then steep the mixture for 20 minutes, then strain off the liquid as before.

6. Mix this liquid with the liquid from the first straining which was previously set aside and measure the amount of liquid you have. This mixture of the liquids from the two strainings must now be simmered down slowly to 1/4 of its original amount. For example if you had one gallon of liquid, it must be simmered down to one quart.

7. Stir the mixture often while it is simmering down so it will not stick to the bottom of the container and burn. Do not boil. Even if hours are required to reduce the liquid to 1/4 of the original amount, only simmer slowly to do the job correctly. (This is when patience will be your greatest virtue!)

8. When the simmering is finished, measure the now concentrated liquid carefully and then add to it 1/4 of its own volume of pure vegetable glycerin and also 1/4 of its own volume of a good quality grape brandy (Christian Brothers or some comparable brand name) and mix together. For example, if the liquid concentrate after simmering measures 1 quart, then add 1 cup of the glycerin and 1 cup of the brandy.

9. Pour the mixture into dark brown glass bottles, date and label. If desired, when the bottle is tightly sealed, you can turn the bottle upside down and dip the top in melted sealing wax.
You can keep this formula for years at household temperatures. The dosage is 1/2 tsp 3 times a day. It is best taken over a period of several months or years to achieve results, being a tonic formula. Appropriate for all ages.

After you make your own hawthorn berry syrup, you will have a very powerful, healing syrup for yourself and your family.

Everyone could benefit from this syrup, and it tastes so good too! It’s rich in bioflavonoids, antioxidants, nutrients, and active compounds that can truly help transform your heart over time.

Herbal Formulas for Pain

   In the news again is the drug abuse problem with OxyContin. Over 190,000 people have died from this one medication alone. I have never filled a prescription for pain medication even though it has been prescribed after dental treatment and surgeries. I have had great success with herbal formulas which are not addictive, you don't need a presctiption and they are affordable.  We will talk about pain formulas from Western Botanicals in this week’s article.

    Western Botanicals Pain Relief Formula: headaches, back pain, muscle pain, joint inflammation all cause annoying and sometimes debilitating pain. This non-narcotic, natural pain reliever is particularly suited for chronic pain. It relaxes and calms nervous irritation associated with pain.

    Western Botanicals Turmeric Combo is effective in dramatically reducing pain and inflammation. The herbs used in the Turmeric Combo are of the safest available, and can be used on a long-term basis without worry of interfering or reacting to other nutrients or drugs.

    Western Botanicals CTR Formula is short for Complete Tissue Repair. This formula assists the body to recover from injury or trauma. We recommend Complete Tissue Repair Syrup or vegicaps for any injury or degenerative bone, muscle or nerve conditions, it aids in the repair as well as easing the pain. Rub in the ointment or oil into the affected area and it will assist in quicker healing and pain relief.

    Western Botanicals Joint Relief Formula is the perfect blend of herbs that help comfort and soothe pain and swelling in the joints. The herbs work to reduce pain, relieve inflammation and repair damaged tissues. This liquid joint formula is in a base of Apple Cider Vinegar which is well known for dissolving calcifications.

Herbal Formulas for Children

My kids were fairly young when we totally switched over to using Dr. Christopher’s herbal formulas.  I wish that we had known sooner what we know now about taking care of ourselves naturally.  It is very empowering to be able to handle health situations at the time when things are happening. I hate when people say I think my kids are getting sick and I mention things they can do, but they don’t follow through. This doesn’t need to happen. If we give them the herbs as soon as we think they are getting sick, then most of the time it will stop it or at worst shorten it.

    Dr. Christopher has a great Kid-e-Line of extracts for children which are appropriate to give from newborn to elderly.  

    Dr. Christopher’s Kid-e-Calc is a wonderful natural calcium formula designed to meet children’s specific growing needs. As explained in the book, "Biological Transmutations", the silica in horsetail grass can be converted into calcium in the human body, and the other herbs work in close conjunction with this master calcium herb. We need calcium to build and maintain nerve sheath, vein and artery walls, bone, teeth, etc. This combination is helpful for cramps, ("Charlie horses"), successful pregnancies, and building as well as maintaining healthy bones, teeth, hair, skin and nails for children and adults.

    Dr. Christopher’s Kid-e-Col is a mother's favorite formula for her new born baby. This formula is time tested and a blessing for infants. A great combination of Catnip and Fennel for colic, teething pain, flatulence, spasms, etc. This is one I give as a gift when I hear a baby has colic.  Parents are always amazed at how quickly it works to soothe little tummies.

    Dr. Christopher’s Kid-e-Dry is specifically for controlling or overcoming bed-wetting and to strengthen the entire urethral canal, kidneys, bladder, etc. you won't have to beg your child to take this great-tasting extra each day. 

    Dr. Christopher’s Kid-e-Mem helps to promote proper brain function. We all want what's best for our children. Childhood is an important time to learn & grow. We need to give our little ones the proper nutrients so that their brains work optimally. In conjunction with a proper diet, plenty of water, and loving relationships. 

    Dr. Christopher’s Kid-e-Mins are natural vitamins for children, Kid-e-Mins is the ultimate whole-food formula, perfectly balanced with vitamins and minerals the way mother nature intended. Vitamins that come straight from nature are the most precious gift you can give a child. 100% natural to nourish growing bodies. Vitamins a parent can feel good about giving their children.

    Dr. Christopher’s Kid-e-Mune was designed to enhance the body’s ability to prevent the spread of bacteria and viruses. Many herbalists use Echinacea for its ability to build resistance to infections of the respiratory and digestive tracts and strengthen the body’s resistance against many common ailments such as bronchitis, the common cold, sore throats, canker sores, cold sores, etc. Give at the first sign of illness to stop problems quickly before they develop.

    Dr. Christopher’s Kid-e-Reg is a synergistic herbal blend was designed to strengthen and gently cleanse the lower bowel. It is powerful enough for effectiveness and gentle enough for safety. It tastes great and is made with only the finest ingredients. 

    Dr. Christopher’s Kid-e-Soothe was designed to calm yet strengthen the body’s immune responses. Oftentimes, we believe that we are allergic to certain foods, plants or animals, but in reality our immune system may be just overreacting. This simple combination of Marshmallow root and Astragalus has made life easier for those who suffer from allergies, hay fever, asthma, rheumatoid arthritis or any hyperactive immune response. 

    Dr. Christopher’s Kid-e-Trac has become one of the most popular formulas for mental sharpness and clarity, emotional balance and overall health of the brain and nervous system. This formula has been used traditionally for helping the brain function properly via assisting the body with delivering the nutrients to the brain and calming nervous system. Works wonderfully for depression and anxiety symptoms.

   Dr. Christopher’s Kid-e-Well is a synergistic herbal blend was designed to help strengthen and assist the immune system of children. This formula is powerful enough to be effective, yet gentle enough to be safe. It tastes great and has been used traditionally during times of cold and flu.

Here are two of my favorite kid’s formulas from Western Botanicals. I think you will agree that it is good to have some Herbal Ear Drops on hand to treat those middle of the night ear infections!

    Western Botanicals Herbal Ear Drops soothes and reduce the painful effects of earaches. Also used to decrease lymphatic swelling associated with congestion and infection. Contains Garlic bulb, Mullein leaf & flower, Lobelia herb & seed, pure Olive Oil.  I recommend getting the 1 oz. bottle and replacing it every two years. This one bottle will save a family so much grief from the misery of ear infections and the high cost of running to the doctor.

    Western Botanicals Immune Boost Formula Syrup - the primary ingredient in Immune boost is Echinacea which has been scientifically proven to stimulate the immune system, reduce inflammation, destroy harmful bacteria and speed wound healing. This very powerful and potent herbal combination should be used at the first sign of illness to stop it in its tracks! No child can resist the taste and you will be amazed with the results. Available in 2 oz.  4 oz. syrup and capsules.

Are your kids going back to school with focus problems?

Summer has flown by and the kids will be heading back to school soon! If they struggle with focus, Western Botanicals has three formulas to try. Everyone is different, so it is nice to have several to choose from. I love that Western Botanicals formulas come in capsules, alcohol extract and syrup, so there is a formula that everyone can take.

Attention Calm has been historically used for ADHD - Attention Focus has been historically used for ADD.

Western Botanicals Attention Calm formula supports mental focus and clarity and is wonderful for people who are concerned about the side effects of a less holistic approach. Difficulty focusing or calming down is often associated with the nervous system. The herbs in Attention Calm are very calming and contains Ginkgo leaf, Passion leaf and flower, Oregon Grape root, Black Cohosh root, Valerian root, Blue Cohosh root, Wild Yam root, St. John’s Wort herb, Grape seed, Hops flowers, Scullcap herb, Lobelia herb/seed pod, Chamomile flower, Wood Betony herb. Available in capsules, extract 2 oz and 4 oz and syrup 2 oz and 4 oz.

Western Botanicals Attention Focus formula is used for attention problems where mental focus and clarity are a concern without hyperactivity. Trouble focusing can often be tied to the nervous system. Attention Focus Formula addresses those symptoms and contains Ginkgo leaf, Passion Flower herb & flower, St. John's wort flowering top, Grape seed, Oregon Grape root. Available in capsules, extract 2 oz and 4 oz and syrup 2 oz and 4 oz.

Western Botanicals Brain Circulation formula is a great aid for mental fogginess, poor memory, stroke recovery or for an afternoon mental pick-me-up. The herbs in this formula promote more blood and oxygen circulation to the brain helping brain function. Brain Circulation contains Ginkgo leaf, Kola nut, Calamus herb, Ginger root, Gotu Kola herb, Rosemary leaf, Habanero Cayenne pepper. Available in capsules, extract 2 oz and 4 oz and syrup 2 oz and 4 oz.

As with so many health concerns I want to reiterate that diet is a large factor in any attention dysfunction and should be primary in assisting in focus and mental clarity concerns. Refined foods and processed sugars should be avoided. Whole natural foods need to be the primary food source. Please address these issues along with using a formula to aid the problem.

Please call me, I'm happy to take your order and answer your questions!

Sleep Problems

I have talked to quite a few people lately that suffer with sleep issues. It is important to your health to get a good night’s sleep, and having a natural sleep aid to use that does not have negative side effects is a plus. We have a lot of great herbal formulas and essential oil choices to help you get the sleep you need. The first five remedies are made for sleep, the ones that follow after that are remedies that you may have on-hand that work as well.

Dr. Christopher’s Slumber formula contains Black Cohosh Root, Blue Cohosh Root, Hops Flower, Lavender, Lobelia Herb, Mullein Leaf, Passion Flower & Valerian Root. This blend of herbs is calming to the system and promotes a restful night’s sleep. Available in capsules.

Dr. Christopher’s Sleep Well Spray contains fresh Valerian root, Chamomile flower, Catnip & Passion Flower. The sublingual spray is very easy to use, just spray three squirts into the mouth at bedtime or when sleep is a problem.

Western Botanicals Sweet Dreams formula is a natural, non narcotic, non-alcohol based herbal product which helps to relax the body, mind and spirit allowing you to gently drift into sleep. Used effectively by children and adults. Not habit forming and completely non toxic to the system. Available in capsules or syrup 2 oz and 4 oz.

Western Botanicals Rest Easy Tea is a soothing blend of Chamomile flower, Scullcap herb, Catnip herb, Peppermint leaf, Stevia leaf, Spearmint leaf, Passion Flower herb, Lemon Balm leaf, Lemon Grass herb and Lavender flower. Available in 4 oz, 8 oz & 16 oz re-closeable mylar bag.

Garden Essence Oils Nite Cap blend contains Lavender, Chamomile, and Valerian essential oils. The oils in the blend help to relieve nighttime restlessness and is a great sleep aid. These are full strength oils. Mix a few drops into lotion or a carrier oil and massage into neck, abdomen, down the spine, legs and feet in the evening before bed. Make a roller bottle using your favorite carrier oil and add 2 to 10 drops into the 10 ml bottle or 4 to 30 drops into the 1 oz. roller bottle.

Both my husband and I take Kava Kava every night. I’m pretty active and on the nights that I don’t take it I know that I didn’t when morning comes because I have achy muscles.  Kava Kava is a great muscle relaxant, is calming for anxiety, stress and restlessness. It is available in capsules, 2 oz and 4 oz. extract and bulk cut and powder.

I have also used Dr. Christopher’s famous anxiety/nerve/depression combo for many years. It is both Relax-Eze and Mindtrac taken together. Sometimes I take them individually, but together they are amazing and work wonders for sleep! If I wake up in the night with worries I’ll pop two capsules of Mindtrac and it quiets down my brain and I drift quickly into a deep sleep. These two go to the root of the sleep problem for me, which is the fact that I am a more anxious worry type person. Great for anxiety, depression and sleep!

Other herbal formulas that may promote sleep are Dr. Christopher’s Valerian Nerve extract and Western Botanicals Nerve Calm, available in capsules, extract and syrup.

Other essential oils that promote calming and sleep are Lavender, Cedarwood, Celery, Chamomile, Clary Sage, Marjoram, Valerian and Vetiver to name a few. If you have some of these oils add a few drops into the roller bottle with the carrier oil or add to some lotion and you are good to go!

Please call me and I’d be happy to take your order and answer your questions!

Are bug bites bugging you?

There are several great remedies available to help with bug bites and I have used all of them at one time or another. Plantain Ointment/Stings & Bites is a Dr. Christopher favorite. If you know what the plant looks like and you are having an issue with a bug bite, you can just pick some of the leaves, chew them and place them on the bite. It works well to draw out the poison that is causing the itching. Plantain is commonly seen in grassy areas. Learn what it looks like, it might come in handy someday! Note that we have a few jars of the old label Stings & Bites and then after that it will be back to Plantain Ointment.

Lavender essential oil is a well-known favorite for many  people and I find that it works well for mosquito bites and bee stings. I was recently stung by a bee and it really hurt. I put the Garden Essence Lavender oil on the area and it didn’t swell and the pain went away. Lavender is a great summer remedy for sunburn as well, making it a must have for every household.

I recently had some mosquito bites that weren’t responding to the Plantain Ointment or Lavender oil. I was asking friends for some other ideas because the bites were very bothersome. One of them came up with Dr. Christopher's Black Ointment so I decided to give it a try and it worked! Sweet relief!

Another essential oil that works on bites is one that helps deter them. I will add a few drops of Garden Essence Pest Away blend to lotion and put it on my exposed areas and it works pretty well at keeping them away. I’ve also used it directly on the bites and had them stop itching.

So there you have it, some great natural remedies to help you with this pesky problem!

Is eating whatever you want working for you?

---

This is a photo of a diabetic man’s foot, both feet look like this. He has lost the feeling in them, so isn’t in pain, but this is due to years of eating the wrong food throughout his life. His motto was "I'm gonna eat what I want, when I want, I only live once". This is what a lot of people say and do. Is it worth it??

 

I had a gal call the other day looking for some help with neuropathy in her feet. I told her what I would do, which is take the Nerve Reinforcement formula internally, along with using the Nerve Damage essential oil mixed into the Complete Tissue and Bone Massage Oil. I would also take the Complete Tissue and Bone Formula internally to aid in the healing.




I then asked her if she knew the reason why she has neuropathy in her feet and she said she is diabetic. I asked if she was using the Pancreas Formula an she said no. We talked about needing to treat the cause of the neuropathy so that she can have a successful healing. We talked about diet, which is what Dr. Christopher always did with his patients. Diet needs to change in order for the healing to happen. With diabetes you can’t mess around with eating sugar and grains that turn to sugar. I suggested looking up Paleo recipes to replace the grain foods. Almond flour and coconut flour make good pancakes, muffins, etc.  She ordered everything that we had talked about, and it is up to her to make the big change which is diet.

Is your health where you want it to be? Are you willing to take responsibility for your health? Dr. Christopher taught that there are no incurable diseases, only incurable people – people that aren’t willing to make the changes necessary in order for the healing to happen. You can find Dr. Christopher’s healing programs here.

I’m here to help, just give me a call!

Adrenal Formula for travel, hayfever solutions

It’s that time of year again! If you are thinking travel, you are right. If you are thinking hayfever, you are right.

A friend posted the following on facebook:  “We are awake at 4 am because of the time difference, as are most tourists here. The streets and restaurants are bustling by 5 am and the sunrise cafe breakfasts on the beachfront are spectacular. @ Honolulu, Hawaii”

My husband and I have been to Hawaii three times and have never had this problem because we take Dr. Christopher's  Adrenal Formula on vacation. It has not let us down and we have never been up early like my friend says happens to most people. If you want to get the most out of your vacation, take the Adrenal Formula in the morning and early afternoon. Your body will thank you and you will get to enjoy the vacation that you thought you were going to have.

Even though my husband and I are affected less and less by hayfever, it is still a problem for a few weeks a year. Our backyard gets covered by a layer of yellow pollen from our three Honey Locust trees for at least three weeks every spring. I found a combination of essential oils a few years ago that work great in the diffuser and under my nose to help me with the symptoms. I use equal parts of lemon, lavender  and peppermint, I love the smell of the blend. The peppermint helps keep my nose clear and the other oils help with the symptoms. Read the blog post about the oils here.  I also take one of the sinus formulas that I talk about in this blog post. I never take medication, only use the oils and the herbs.

Old newsletters are always posted on the blog. and are great to refer to when you are looking for a solution!  Be sure to bookmark it!

Feel free to give me a call to place an order or ask a question.  For more serious health concerns David Christopher from the School of Natural healing is available for a free three minute consultation Monday - Thursday 1:00 - 2:00 mountain time 1-800-372-8255.
