Herbs for Thyroid

Success Stories, Thyroid Health, ,

Hi Lorene,
Just wanted to let you know that I’ve finished all the Nature’s Sunshine Black Walnut you got for me. I  am still taking 2 caps of NSP Kelp/day. Had my Dr. order a thyroid blood test on Tuesday and he phoned me the result yesterday which was 3, down from 6 when I had my  medical . So it working well.

I tried about 3 weeks of the prescribed thyroid medication which didn’t agree with me at all.

I had no problem at all with the Black Walnut or Kelp and I’m very pleased with the result of this last blood test.

I thank you so much for your help and it’s wonderful to know that you are only a phone call away.

Q & A: Ringworm, molluscum and other skin conditions

Immune Tips, Questions and Answers, Skin Health, , , , , , ,

This is a series of emails between a client and Lorene, which might be helpful to others. My responses are in italics.

It may seem frustrating to use different herbs for different conditions, but when compared to the number of multiple drugs, all with very negative side effects, this is really simple.

Our family has used all of these herbal remedies with amazing results over the last 35 years. By results I mean faster resolution, less expensive and no side negative effects than a medical prescriptive route. A few examples of successes can be found under Success Stories.

There ARE frequently positive side effects, such as a remedy effecting a benefit not being treated. Two examples:

  • using black walnut for ringworm, also helps to support the thyroid and strengthen tooth enamel.
  • using an herbal formula to help allergies and lungs will often help a sluggish colon.

June 9th: Hi Lorene,
Our family is now  living in Texas . It is pretty interesting. One of the things about living here is that the kids have gotten lots of different skin stuff that we never had in Canada. Right now my middle son has something called Molluscum Contagiosum. It is smallish white bumps on his left leg that spread and can last for a long time- they are from a virus kind of like planters warts etc. I have tried a couple different topical treatments, but nothing is getting it from its source.

I remembered that when I was in high school, (editor’s note- about 20+ yrs. ago),   I had really bad planters warts on my feet and you had given me 2 different things to take- I think one was beta carotene? And I can’t remember the other. Can you recommend something for me to try with him? I really really appreciate it!
Thankyou so much!    JH

June 10: I treated a 3 yrs. old girl with mulluscum , and yes, it is a virus. At that time I treated them by poking them with a sterilized pin (tea tree oil)  to penetrate the little white bumps, then applying tea tree oil to them. Depends on nature of your son, whether he will let you do this or not. That would be an external application.

 

Internally, your memory serves you well – it was Beta Carotene – strongest NSP product with beta carotene is now Defence Maintenance. At one time we had a straight Beta carotene, but not anymore – I think it was stopped by FDA, probably because it was too effective; certainly no safety issues!

 

The other product would have been HRP-C (for HeRPes),  which  in the US is called VS-C  (for ViruS)- concentrate capsules which can be opened, or VS-C liquid. This can be taken internally, but the liquid could also be applied externally, but it’s a little sticky.

Let me know one way or other, OK? Lorene
 

Jun 12: Hi Lorene,
Thank you for getting back to me! I just ordered the liquid VS-C and hopefully with tea tree that will help. I’ve tried a bunch of other stuff, and it has helped some but new ones keep popping up, he also has some staph infection happening as well- and just got over some nasty impetigo, I was getting pretty desperate so just got him some antibiotics… I don’t think he has ever been on antibiotics before. We might have to come see you when we are on the island!
Lots of love, JH

 

Jun 15: OK keep in touch to know how the VS-C works . 
Golden Seal  (Hydrastis canadensis) is one of the best antibiotics – which I save for heavy duty infections, as it is an endangered species.  For staph,  Oregon Grape (Mahonia aquifolium) is a specific and VERY effective, and it is not endangered.  Golden Seal is available from US as a single in capsules – the strongest form. 

 

Jun 18: Thank you for the tips! That’s good to know about the Oregon grape. I didn’t end up using the antibiotics for him, just waited a couple days and it looked like it turned into Pityriasis rosea
Or something similar, which he had last summer and was misdiagnosed as ringworm. Just this time it looked kind of different so the doctor I think didn’t know what it was. Hopefully the VS-C can take care of both the moluscum & pityriasis.
Thanks again for your insights and help.

 

Jun 18: Skin conditions are obviously hard for many doctors. I have had ringworm mis-diagnosed TWICE . The 2nd time they wanted to operate! I often find my answers upon waking, so it must come in my dreams, so once I figured it was ringworm, I applied Black Walnut liquid externally and took it internally. Something I had endured for months (on my scalp – I think from Bali) was gone in less than 2 wks.

Spring Cleansing for improved health!

Colon/Cleansing, Healthy Solutions, , , , , , , , , ,

Spring has sprung and we hope that some of you are feeling it. Flowers coming up, rivers running high, all the signs of nature are upon us. More differences obviously for those of us more northerly, but even in southerly climes, the differences can be  noticed when you take the time to look, smell or feel.

The beauty of spring is the time for renewal and new growth. For our bodies, it is also one of the best times to clean out accumulated toxins from the winter, which for many is a time of less activity and heavier eating.

Just as your car needs regular oil changes, your body needs regular cleansing.  The liver is a major detoxifying organ in the body, as well as being responsible for enzyme production, energy levels, glucose storage and release, hormonal balance, emotional states and hundreds of other functions.

Clean intestines facilitate proper nutrient absorption and waste elimination. Time proven tradition has shown that spring  cleansing improves digestion and utilization of nutrients, increases energy and strengthens the immune system. Spring cleansing helps ensure better health in the upcoming season, just as does fall cleansing prepare for the next change of season.

Cleansing can be as simple as cleaning up your diet, and undertaking a raw foods feast, or as complicated as fasting and doing enemas. The addition of herbs that have been  traditionally used for cleansing greatly makes any cleanse more effective. Some of the cleanses we have worked with for years are combinations of herbs which are designed to offer whole body cleansing, including liver, kidneys, colon, lymphatic, blood and cellular level.

The packs make it easy for anyone to do, without having to take time off or starve. A few that we continue to use are listed below. If you would like more information on any of these, or how to get them, no matter what part of the world you live in, please contact our office: takethenaturalpath@gmail.com.

You may be surprised at how reasonably priced they are, and as they come from a company that has been around since 1972, their quality is by design, not by accident, and is a given.

Tiao He PAK (CA)  and  Tiao He Cleanse (US) : a 10 – 15 day cleanse that nutritionally benefits the liver, bowels, kidneys and cleanses blood at the cellular level. Contains 3 formulas and 3 single herbs.

DETOX BASICS  CA & US: a 30 day cleanse which includes Berberin for balancing glucose metabolism., Milk Thistle for liver & enhanced glutathione production, Turmeric, probiotics and more.

Dieter’s Cleanse (US only) : a 14 day program that both builds and cleanses in the proper ratio of two to one. Because it contains many anti oxidants and minerals, it can be used longer term for weight loss. Enhances digestive and intestinal  function; balances glands, weight-metabolism and blood sugar.

Parasite Cleansing is also recommended 1- 2x/s per year. NO matter where you live, chances are about 95% that you have parasites. Herbs such as Wormwood, (Artemisia), Black Walnut, Paw Paw are available in several products and Paks.

LBS II: A lower bowel formula that is beneficial for ongoing building and cleansing of bowel tone and function..  The longer you use it, the less you need it – proof that it works! It is one combination in both of the above packages, but as so many people need this on an ongoing basis, it is also available as a stand-alone formula.

If you feel  weak or depleted, your are wiser to build your body a month or more before cleansing. An excellent herbal aid to do this is :

Energy-V : energy booster to increase overall well being, stamina and energy. Includes adaptogenic herbs which help the body adapt to stress.   Contains bee pollen, gingko, kelp, licorice, siberian ginseng, yellow dock, barley grass, rosehips, schizandra and capsicum.

Good health to you – now go out and find yourself an unsprayed patch of nettles or dandelion greens to eat while cleansing!
