Herbal Supplements to take the rest of your life

It's no secret that God's medicine is my prefered method of healing and I truly believe he has provided everything we would ever need in the Earth's garden to overcome any sickness or disease. But if we would just nourish our bodies with the proper vitamins and minerals we (in theory) would never get sick in the first place....well unless it was emotionally rooted....save that for another blog...

So here are some herbs I plan on taking daily/weekly for the rest of my life. Perhaps you may want to consider trying a few.

Digestive Enzymes- I take with every meal

Probiotics- I take weekly or in large quantities after an antibiotic or me that would be collodial silver

Antioxidants- I use trader joe's red powder and take daily

Magnesium- the most important mineral in the body and I take it daily

B vitamins- I take these weekly to support my adrenal glands (THE STRESS ORGANS) if you are under alot of stress you should take these daily!

Alfalfa- is my multi vitamin and I take it weekly.

Epsom Salt Baths

Everyone is familiar with Epsom Salts. You can buy it at any local pharmacy and it is usually used to alleviate sprains or sore muscles. But buy using large quantities such as 8 lbs to 12 lbs in a bath instead of the 1 to 2 cups it is an excellent way to detox. Epsom Salt baths can pull out all kinds of toxins in the body including yeast, parasites, bacterias, and virus'. I always put my kids in an epsom salt bath when they are getting sick with a cold/flu. For children I only use 4 lbs to 6 lbs. I first dry brush the skin with a bathing brush to open the pours and then fill the tub using a dechlorination ball, add the epsom salts and 4 to 5 drops of purification essential oil and vala a natural safe and effective way to pull out the yuckies! Next time your feeling under the weather, give it a try.

The 3 essential oils I can't live without

It is true that I use essential oils daily on myself and my kids but if I could only have access to a few my top "must haves" would without a doubt be Peppermint, Theives and Purification. I use these 3 most often because they have a huge variety of uses and are extremely effective. I use peppermint for aches and pains, headaches, congestion, sore throat, stomach aches, nausea, cramps, gas pains, fevers, and fatigue. I put theives on the kids every single morning before school or church and then again before bed to ward off colds, flu's and virus' and if they do catch something I put it on them 5 times a day to kill those germs fast. And finally Purification, I apply this one over my liver, bladder and kidney's for daily detox and cleansing. I also use it as a mosquito repellant all summer long and it works great. My favorite way of using these oils is topically right on my skin. I do also diffuse all 3 of them every few days. Purification is fantastic at purifying the air and getting rid of unwanted odors and theives of course kills germs in the air and even toxic mold spores! If you haven't yet tried essential oils you should definately check out these 3!
