Clip branches from flowering trees and shrubs, such as forsythia, crab apple, and dogwood. You can enjoy a preview of these spring blossoms by bringing the branches indoors, and placing them in a vase filled with warm water.
GINSENG & DIABETES
Researchers have found that American ginseng (Panax
quinquefolius) can help lower blood sugar levels in people
both with and without type 2 diabetes. Ginseng may lower
blood sugar by slowing digestion, increasing sugar uptake in
cells or by increasing insulin levels -- researchers aren't
sure of the exact mechanism. If you take ginseng -- for
whatever reason -- be careful to watch for any hypoglycemic
(low blood sugar) reactions.

Kidney stone treatment
This is from a chat member who gets kidney stones from all of her meds. When ever she has an attack she now does the following:
She takes some tincture of wild yam to relax the area where kidney stones are.
Then she drinks: 1/4 cup of Apple Cider vinegar and 1/4 cup of oil mixed together.
She adds a little sugar and water to make it more palatable. She then lies on her right side with her head elevated. The next day her pain is totally gone.
Chanca piedra is for kidney stones too
Kidney Stones
The massage of olive oil over the body tones up the muscles and organs,
it relieves muscular pains. Some physicians also advocate the massage of
olive oil for epilepsy. It relieves the Sciatic and arthritis.
The
ointments prepared from olive oil are very good healing agents. It heals
the sinus and fistula very quickly. 25ml of olive oil mixed with 250ml
of barley water, if taken internally, is highly effective against
chronic constipation. It is good Diuretic, hence is used in Ascites. It
also removes the kidney stones.

usually remove rancid odor in a few days)

Another chat member writes this testimony:
Life is good. Not always as we would like it to be, but always as we need it to be.
Nothing is a waste if we learn from it. Even the bad things
I was told I had two yrs to live - over six yrs ago
Chronic asthma and constrictive airway disease
Got rid of three inhalers, two oral meds, a pulmo aide machine
Diabetes pills, arthritis meds, and have not had a cold or flu for six yrs
I started taking pure Elderberry concentrate from Wyldewood Cellars
I was doing it just to improve my health and Started by drinking a glass of Elderberry Wine a day as I heard it reduced
heart disease risk. Then all the other things got better
I began reading up on Elderberrys they are a powerful anti viral - proven in a medical study in Israel
Have been used for thousands of yrs for just about everything in Europe and Native American herbal history.

Before you chop up jalapeno's or any hot peppers, remember to rub
vegetable oil on your hands first. By doing this, your hands and
fingers won't suffer from the pepper burns!
If your mouth is burning from red pepper...chew some plain
bread...it will absorb it...Water won't
help at all.

ACUPUNCTURE TO CONCEIVE?
For women trying unsuccessfully to have a baby there are
many grueling and expensive options to explore. But some
women are adding another option to the list -- acupuncture.
Many medical experts say acupuncture is able to deal with
some of the problems relating to an inability to conceive.
In some cases it's a matter of easing the stress and dealing
with the patient's state of mind. Harvard University has
started a behavioral medicine program to treat infertile
couples.
X-rays will weaken your homeopathic remedies, so use care
when traveling by air. If you want to pack your remedies in
a suitcase that you plan to check, invest in a lead-lined
photographic film bag. This bag will protect your remedies
in case your checked suitcase happens to be x-rayed. If
carrying a small number of remedies with you on the plane,
carry them in your pocket. They should survive the metal
detector you will walk through, but will not survive the
x-ray examination of your carry-on luggage.
If you think you can win, you can win. Faith is necessary to victory.
