We have what you need to fight the virus! Variants don't matter!

We want you to know how much we appreciate your orders, it helps our small family business stay here for you!

This is the time of year that there is a big need for formulas for Virus/Colds/Flu. A fresh batch of Super Garlic Immune formula 16 oz. is now available. This is the top formula for Virus/Colds/Flu and we encourage you to stock up now, while we have it. It is best for us to ship it before the freezing weather comes in, so please keep that in mind and order soon. Virus variants don't matter, Super Garlic Immune Formula covers them all!

My husband & I had Covid back in October and I was grateful that we were stocked up with the formulas we need. I can feel the healing happen and I like to hit it really hard to get over things faster than most people. I don’t love the taste of Super Garlic Immune Formula, but after taking it so many years I don’t think it is so terribly nasty to me anymore! I have taken it as often as every 15 minutes when things are bad, moving to once and hour, and then as I feel the healing happen start getting it further between doses. I would suggest for people to get at least one 16 oz. bottle per person in the house, two if you have the funds.

Below are some great formulas to have on hand this time of year. My husband can’t handle the garlic formulas, so we rotate him through some of the other formulas. He does much better when he hits it hard too, taking something every hour when things are bad and spreading it out and improvement happens.

Please get your orders in while inventory is good on these items, and so that you have them when you need them!

Herbs for Men's Health!

This is Men’s Health Week and also Father’s Day this coming Sunday. We all love our husbands, fathers, brothers, friends, etc., lets help them stay healthy with some good healing formulas. Below are formulas for the most common health issues that men are dealing with today!

Dr. Christopher’s Blood Circulation Formula This group of herbs feeds cayenne and ginger into the circulatory system where the cayenne works from the bloodstream to the heart and arteries and out into the veins. The other herbs in the formula assist these two herbs and work together to equalize the blood pressure (whether high or low) bringing it into a suitable systolic/diastolic balance. Blood flow is life itself. Blood Circulation Formula capsules or extract or bulk as BPE

Dr. Christopher’s Hawthorn Berry Heart Syrup The heart is the most vital muscle in the whole body. It is our life pump, and when it is not properly fed with wholesome foods it suffers malfunction. Heart failure is one of America’s greatest killers. The Hawthorn Berry Heart Syrup is considered by many to be the best heart tonic or food, used historically to help restore optimum health of the heart. Available in 4 oz and 16 oz. syrup.

Dr. Christopher’s Male Urinary Tract formula For the aid of the malfunctioning prostate gland. This formula has been designed to dissolve the stones that are in the kidneys, as well as clean out other sedimentation and infection in the prostate. This formula works exceptionally well by itself. However, when combined with Prostate Plus Formula, another male urinary tract formula, they work very synergistically together.

Dr. Christopher’s Prostate Plus formula For the aid of the malfunctioning, weakened prostate gland. This formula has been designed to help strengthen and tone the prostate while cleansing it with nourishing antioxidants. This formula works exceptionally well just by itself. However, when combined with the Male Urinary Tract Formula, another prostate formula, they work very synergistically together.

Dr. Christopher's Herbal Libido formula is a synergistic blend of herbs for the male & female libido. Aging, stress & many other factors can lead to intimacy issues & can put strain on relationships. Herbal Libido is an all natural, drug free formula that aids the body with blood circulation in the needed areas for sexual health and supports sexuatl health which can lead to greater intimacy & stronger relationships.

Dr. Christopher’s Memory Plus A great combination of old-fashioned herbs used to cleanse, build and increase circulation to the brain. Used historically to help promote improved peripheral and cerebral circulation. All the anti-aging effects of better circulation go along with this ability: increased energy, antioxidant effects, better concentration, etc.

Dr. Christopher’s Pancreas formula Helps the pancreas and has assisted many that have had hypoglycemia or diabetes. Many have had a glucose tolerance test with a clean bill of health after using the Pancreas formula. Many reports have come in about heavy insulin users who continue using the insulin have gradually tapered down on the insulin; and many within a year, have found complete relief using two to three or more capsules, three times per day, six days a week.

Dr. Christopher Formulas, Inspired by God

I was talking to a customer recently and he was telling me why he trusts and uses Dr. Christopher’s formulas. He liked that Dr. Christopher was a Christian and would pray for answers of how to help people to heal. Formulas

would be given to Dr. Christopher via inspiration, and these are the formulas that we have today. I have been using Dr. Christopher formulas for over thirty years and I have always had success with them, and I trust them for the same reason. You can read Dr. Christopher’s story An Herbal Legacy of Courage written by his son David Christopher on the Herbal Legacy website by The School of Natural Healing. It is also available for purchase on our Herbs First website.

If you haven’t tried Dr. Christopher’s formulas, does it make a difference to you to know that the man that came up with them was inspired by God? Does that help you think that maybe there is more to these formulas than other products on the market? We could offer you hundreds of product lines, but we only offer three main brands for a reason. They work!

We are a small family owned business and every order is important to us, and helps us stay here for you. We love our customers and are here to help you. Please email info@herbsfirst.com or give us a call 801-228-1901 if you have any questions about the products in our store. We don’t pressure you to buy things you don’t need, we only suggest what we would do for ourselves in any given situation.

We sell Dr. Christopher's formulas and Western Botanicals herbal formulas and Garden Essence 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. Please email info@herbsfirst.com and I can send you links to help you learn more about what you need to know!

Great time to stock up on Essential Oils!

We had a total of seven people for Thanksgiving last week. My husband and I, our son, daughter-in-law and grandson, and a niece and her husband. We live in three different households, everyone was healthy so we felt good about getting together. Just to be safe we ran the diffuser the whole time with Garden Essence Oils X-Plague blend. It made the house smell so yummy on top of all the other nice smells from the food, and added another layer of protection for us all just in case. We are all well this week, so it turned out good for us. I’m sorry to see the big line at our local Covid 19 testing station and wonder what the coming days/weeks will bring. Its been a hard year for many people!

Your best line of defense to stay healthy is eating a whole-foods plant-based diet. Search WFPB recipes online. We have talked about lots of great herbal ideas over the year, so if you need some ideas on what to stock up on, you can read more on our blog, email us or call us too! Now is the best time to stock up on some formulas, we always run out of the Super Garlic Immune Formula 16 oz. size, so if that is something that your family uses, then please be sure to order a few bottles now. The suggested amount is at least one 16 oz. bottle per family member. These are flying out the door, so please get your orders in!

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

How to make Stone Dissolve Tea

This keeps happening over and over again when the FDA comes to visit....Western Botanicals made an amazing formula called Stone Dissolve Tea that is suddenly off the market. In a search I found information on herbs to use to dissolve stones, but the prepared herbal formulas from herbal companies are gone! Why and how did this happen you might ask? Good question! What you need to know is this is what has happened in many European countries, they are no longer allowing herbal products to be sold. It is pretty sad to see it happening here in the United States and I pray that it will stop, but worry that it will not.

A customer called recently that wanted to buy the Stone Dissolve Tea and at that point I didn’t even know that it had been taken off the market. He was quite sad because he had some kidney stones that he wanted to take care of naturally. He has used the formula in the past and it worked well for him. I had to check on things and after finding out it was true I said no worries, let me give you the formula! He was thrilled!

Stone Dissolve Tea works well for both Kidney Stones and Gall Stones which many people suffer from, so be sure to print out the formula or bookmark the blog page so that you have it!

Stone Dissolve Tea

Ingredients, all herbs are “cut” and mixed together:

2 parts Hydrangea Root – 8 oz

2 parts Gravel Root – 8 oz

1 part Marshmallow Root – 8 oz- use only 4 oz.

2 parts Rosehips – 8 oz

To make the Stone Dissolve tea mix 1/2 cup of the dried herb formula to 2 quarts of Apple Cider (Juice), simmer for 20 minutes and then strain. Water can be used if Apple Cider isn’t available, but of course the Apple Cider version is going to taste better. Drink 2 quarts a day for an active stone and at least 1 cup daily as maintenance.

As you can see, it is quite easy to put together this formula. You could go with all 4 oz and use only 2 oz. of the Marshmallow Root, or buy 8 oz. of the herbs that need 2 parts and buy 4 oz. of the Marshmallow Root.

I have made several extracts this year as well as Dr. Christopher’s BF&C Ointment in coconut oil, aka Complete Tissue and Bone Ointment. It is an easy process and might be something to start learning how to do.

Put something hot on your salad!

Eating whole foods plant based made me wonder how I was going to make my taco salad. I like to have something hot on my lunch salad on cold days. I really like how this turned out and it hits the spot for me. We use this filling in burritos as well. This recipe is one I came up with.

Taco Salad or Burritos - WFPB

2 cans or 2 2/3 C black beans

1 1/2 cups cooked brown rice

1 large onion

5 garlic chopped cloves

1 large green pepper

1 can chopped tomatoes

1 cup frozen corn

1 small can green chillies

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp paprika

1 tsp chilli powder

1 tsp cumin

¾ cup left over cheese sauce

Cook garlic, onion and green pepper in a bit of water for a few minutes until they begin to brown.

Drain and add black beans, tomatoes, frozen corn and seasonings to the pan with your cooked garlic, onion and green peppers. Cook on a medium heat for a few minutes or until the beans have softened.

Add rice and cheese sauce to the pan and mix until it's fully incorporated with the other ingredients.

Use as a taco salad, burrito or eat it as is.

We All Choose Our Hard

I have really come to embrace the term, Choose Your Hard. We all make a lot of choices every day and many of those choices greatly impact our lives. We are choosing our hard. What is your hard? Are you Overweight? Do you have Diabetes, Heart Disease, High Blood Pressure, Prostate Issues, Kidney Problems or some other serious health issue? That’s Hard!

When it comes to health issues many people like to say it is genetic, I can’t help that I have this health issue. Or can you? Really think about it, do you have any control over your health issues? I have a friend that says her doctor is managing her health issues. She is overweight, has diabetes and a whole list of other problems. I have been trying to get her to understand it can be reversed through diet, but it is easier to let the doctors “manage” the diseases for her because then she doesn’t have to do anything! It makes me very sad because as I see it she is choosing a hard life with health issues.

Dr. Christopher taught people that to be healthy you need to eat what he called the Mucusless Diet. Today this is called eating Whole Foods Plant Based (WFPB) diet. There are so many people eating this way now, with lots of online support making it easier to find recipes and make the change. People are getting healthy! My husband and I are getting healthier than we have ever been! This diet change has been hard, but it is the hard we choose! We would rather make the hard change to eat different than most people, than to keep going down the hard path of disease!

Dr. Christopher created many amazing herbal formulas to help heal the problems people may have, and he also stated that for complete healing people need to follow this eating program. I’m grateful for his formulas, and know that once my body heals I won’t have to stay on the herbal formulas forever! Drugs are forever and create a cycle of more and more drugs to maintain some sort of life. Not the kind of life I would want to live!

Here’s a link to all of Dr. Christopher’s formulas, below are the formulas for the most common health issues that people are dealing with today!

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

Herbs for Blood Sugar Issues

I’ve known that I should be eating WFPB/Whole Foods Plant Based for many years. I’ve always been fairly close, but had foods that I had a hard time giving up. Cheese & yogurt were biggies for me. My husband and I quit eating all dairy products the first of the year. We still hung onto meat because like most people, it is hard to make a change. In March my husband and I had our blood work done and we had a wake-up call. Fortunately for us things weren’t real bad, because we eat a lot of the right foods. But right then and there I knew we had to make the big change.

It’s quite a chore coming up with new recipes, but fortunately there are so many people now eating WFPB. I’m happy that my husband has been on board, because he wants to be healthy too. We know way too many people that are very unhealthy and some have even died this year. It makes me sad because so many people aren’t willing to change their diet. I’m hoping that people will notice the change in us and ask for help!

In July just about everything in my blood work was in the normal range except my blood sugar is still too high! My fasting blood sugar was 104 and my A1c was 5.8. I made a lot of progress since March and I’m close to normal and looking forward to seeing how things are the first of the year. In the mean-time along with diet change I am taking the Pancreas Formula.

Dr. Christopher’s Pancreas Formula. It is a synergistic blend of herbs for the pancreas. Our pancreas is an amazing gland in the abdomen that produces insulin & helps our body break down foods. When our pancreas is healthy it is self-regulating, working day & night for our entire life. A healthy pancreas is able to produce the right chemicals at the right times in the right quantities in order to properly digest the food we eat. Today's average diet lacks many essential nutrients that are needed to support normal immunity, blood sugar levels, digestion & glandular function. Not eating a sensible, healthy diet can damage our pancreas & lead to many health problems. Dr. Christopher's Pancreas formula aids the liver with controlling blood sugar, enhances digestion & encourages glandular health. Available in capsules and extract.

I am also using Garden Essence Oils Healthy Spice Blend: The oils in this blend help with restoring health and well-being. Can lower blood sugar, triglycerides, LDL, and total cholesterol in people with type 2 diabetes.

I'm grateful that we didn't let things get too far to where we did have diseases. We were on that road, but made a quick switch to get onto the right path quickly!

Here are links to some websites that you can get lots of information about eating WFPB as well as gather recipes. I’ve made my own book of recipes from what we like to eat from these websites. More will come up if you do a search. There are many facebook groups you can join as well.

Why you should use cleansing herbs

It is interesting to see during this pandemic what people are buying at Herbs First. We are selling a lot of cleansing kits & cleansing herbs. The body has the ability to heal itself. Supporting our eliminating organs and pathways is at the heart of Dr. Christopher’s teachings. In his book, Herbal Home Health Care, Dr. Christopher says, “Well of ninety percent of all disease comes from an unclean body whose sewer is backed up. A backed up sewer means toxins have accumulated in our body.”

I recently read a memoir of my nephew who died of cancer 20 years ago at age 19. It was very common for him to hold in his bowel movement for days and days. When he was getting colon hydrotherapy sessions, the therapist talked to him about the fact that holding in the feces is poisoning the body and she wondered if this is why he got cancer. You need to evacuate the bowels when you have the urge, or it will shut down. It is a common problem for a lot of people today.

Bowels: The bowels absorb nutrients and water we ingest and eliminate the waste that accumulates in our body. Dr. Christopher created the Lower Bowel formula that contains herbs that are laxative, gas relieving, nourishing to correct the movement, and healing. Dr Christopher's Lower Bowel Formula is available in capsules, extract and bulk powder as Fen LB

“When dealing with longstanding health problems, an extended herbal cleanse is an excellent pathway to follow.” This cleanse focuses on herbs that feed and support our eliminating pathway; the bowels, liver and gallbladder, kidneys, and bloodstream. Dr. Christopher's Herbal Cleansing Kits are available in capsules and extracts.

Liver: Our liver makes bile to digest fats, stores glucose, modifies fats, stores vitamins and iron, forms blood plasma proteins, breaks down old red blood cells, recycles or eliminates them, and detoxifies substances. Dr. Christopher formulated the Liver-Gallbladder formula to support the liver. It is available in capsules, extract and bulk cut and powder as Barberry LG

Kidneys: The kidneys aid in excretion of metabolic waste, excess salts, and toxins. They balance the water in the body, balance the pH of our bodily fluids, regulate blood pressure, and regulate red blood cell production. Dr. Christopher’s Kidney formula supports the kidneys and is available in capsules, extract and bulk powder as Junipars.

Bloodstream: Dr. Christopher said, “Our blood stream is life itself and it is our job to keep it clean and pure so that we can have a good circulatory system for delivering food to the body properly and to carry off the waste materials.” Dr. Christopher’s Blood Stream formula is a wonderful formula to help keep the blood stream clean and functioning properly. Available in capsules, extract, syrup and bulk powder and cut as Red Clover Combination.

Dr. Christopher’s Original Formulas are always 25% off
free shipping with a $75.00 order.

Herbs that treat Respiratory Problems

It is hard to believe that we are four months into this Coronavirus Pandemic and things aren’t looking good out there for a lot of people. This virus is a Respiratory Virus and can be taken care of with herbs. We have lots of formulas that focus on treating the Respiratory system. The below items are in stock and ready to ship! What do you need to keep your family healthy?

Dr. Christopher's Super Garlic Immune Formula - I have had amazing results with this formula over the years and can highly recommend it for lung related problems. I have taken it as often as every 15 minutes when I was bad off, this formula has saved my life on several occasions. I have a friend’s son who has asthma and several times he was playing at my house and had an asthma attack. The Super Garlic Immune formula would stop it very quickly and he was able to keep playing with no problems. I have heard many amazing stories of people using this formula. Tastes nasty and will save your life!

For those that can’t handle the strong taste of the above formula, Dr Christopher's Respiratory Syrup is a great option and is more mild tasting. Excellent for fighting toxins and cutting the mucus. Formerly known as Asthma Formula can be taken as often as needed.

Dr. Christpher's Lung & Bronchial formula capsules or extract, and Resp-Free in bulk powder is extremely valuable in strengthening and healing the entire respiratory tract. It promotes the discharge of mucus secretions from the bronchopulmonary passages. It is a very vital formula and a good one to keep on hand and use on a daily basis for people with already compromised lung and bronchioles.

I have used Dr. Christopher's Chest Formula more frequently lately because lung problems have been a part of my life the last 30 years. I was finding myself coughing up phlegm on my morning bike rides, but when I take a dose at night and one in the morning I don’t have that problem. The recent fires kicked things up for me and Chest Formula cleared it up. This formula has been around for at least eighty years and is useful for everyone, children and adults alike; it is especially valuable for breaking up colds, flu, etc. It is available in bulk powder as Herbal Composition.

Please keep stocked up on these formulas. They are in stock now, but we can run out at any time, as they are the top formulas to fight Covid-19 virus.

Bulk Elderberry, Elderberry extract and bulk Yarrow are back in stock as well.

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