Could Herbal Remedies Be Right For YOU?

According to a 1997 Canada Health Monitor Survey, 56 percent of Canadians take some sort of natural health product. And while only 20 percent reported taking herbal remedies, that proportion had doubled from a survey only three years earlier. Judging by the burgeoning shelves of natural remedies in pharmacies, and even grocery and department stores, more Canadians than ever seem to be giving alternative remedies a try.

Could Herbal Remedies Be Right For YOU?

Herbs for Those with Stomach Ache, Ulcers, & Heartburn

I specialize in safe, food-like herbs. I prefer them to drug-like herbs. The remedies I have suggested here are as safe as foods, taken in food-like quantities. When herbs are powdered and encapsulated, they can be dangerous. They are more like a drug and you have to be more careful. I use herbs because they aren't drugs.

The Wise Woman Tradition

The Wise Woman tradition is invisible. Without healers, without diseases, without cures, without certificates, without guarantees, it exists. It has no rules, no right answers, no promise of life eternal. The Wise Woman tradition is a spiral of uniqueness, everchanging, like a woman, steeped in and rising out of the blood mysteries, the wisdom of womb-ones, the knowledge of those who hold their blood inside.

The Wise Woman tradition honors the ordinary and avoids the exotic, works simply and steers clear of complication, accepts failure, chaos, and the eternal void with humor instead of fear and dread. The Wise Woman tradition is compassionate and heart-centered. It honors the Earth. It is local and ecological and urges us to use our dooryard weeds instead of the latest miracle herb from far away.

Valerian
Is it ... or is it not ... worth much?

Valerian has a long history in the lore of folk medicine as a remedy for insomnia, digestive upsets, tension headaches, anxiety and heart palpitations. No one is yet sure why it works -- when it works, which I'll talk about in a moment. Nor do they agree on its active ingredients. It may, in fact, work through a combination of factors. It's been used for centuries and it's widely available in pharmacies and health food stores.

So, yes, Valerian is the stand-by herbal sleep aid from way back, and while it still makes all the lists of natural sleep remedies, as far as I'm concerned, you can keep it. It doesn't work for me. From what I've read it evidently "doesn't work for everyone" -- so it comes with a big disclaimer right there. Maybe it will work for you ... and maybe not.

Spice Up Your Life!

I have to admit, when you first see it in the grocery store, it looks very odd. I even remember a fellow shopper picking up a piece and asking her companion, "What in the world do you suppose this is?" It doesn't much look like a vegetable, despite being kept in the produce section. It is, in fact, used as a spice and has long been classified as a medicine in many cultures.

Its taste is spicy, pungent and distinctive -- slightly hot, and it's often used along with other strong, hot spices, making it a special treat for those who appreciate food that bites back!! Naturally, it's caught the notice of nutritionists -- people who want to know what kind of stuff we put in our bodies and what it does for better or worse. And the news here is especially thrilling. It has more than a dozen kinds of anti-oxidants (those tumor-and-cancer fighters that do wonders for everyone!!!) and numerous applications when it comes to physical healing. No wonder it's been used as medicine for centuries.

Herbs For Immunological Health

The body's immune system is a complex, yet amazing system that is never at rest. Because this system of the body is so busy all the time, you must be sure to feed it the proper, and essential, nutrients it needs to stay in tip top shape.

Of all the systems in the body, your immune system plays the largest part in your day to day interaction with germs. We are constantly coming in contact with germs and parasites as well as other harmful things; if the immune system is not functioning properly due to malnourishment it cannot defend your body against these nasty little things.

What's in Chi Formula?

Eleuthero

Research has found that Eleuthero is an adaptogenic herb that improves the ability to handle stress. Eleuthero has been shown to reduce the activation of the adrenal cortex in response to stress. Eleuthero helps to increase physical and mental endurance and helps to improve memory. Eleuthero benefits mental and physical endurance and has powerful anti-fatigue activity.
