Magnetic Therapy Offers Natural Pain Relief

Paul Forcey



No one can deny the power of magnets, racing pigeons find their way home across thousands of miles, and Salmon use the earth's magnetic pulses to travel through oceans to make their way back to their spawning grounds.
The ancient Celts built their places of worship at points where the earth's magnetic ley lines intersect.

Are you sitting there reading this and rubbing your wrist because your arthritis is playing up again?
Do you avoid walking up stairs as your knees hurt so much?

Magnets have been helping guide animals around the world for millions of years; they can now help you with your pain.

In the December 2004 issue of the British Medical Journal, one study concluded that wearing magnetic bracelets can significantly reduce the pain of arthritis.
As more questions are raised every day over the use of drugs (Celebrex or Vioxx) to assist in pain relief for arthritis, the study is good news to the over 70 million Americans suffering from the disease.

Arthritis affects one in three adults in the United States, and over half of those feel that there is nothing that can be done to ease their pain.
It is a sad world when people will suffer their pain rather than take medication as they are so frightened of the potential side affects of the prescribed medications.

Magnetic therapy offers a natural risk free pain relief for people who suffer with Arthritis.
The British Medical Journal recently published an article in which researchers acknowledged the need for more research regarding the placebo effect. We know that believing in any particular remedy is more likely to create a positive subjective report of improvement. It's also true that taking any kind of action to alleviate pain results in some sense of ease.

Can magnetic therapy products really help me?

•The British Medical journal thinks so and it definitely can't hurt you.
•Magnetic therapy products are natural and offer natural pain relief.
•You wear them on your body, no invasive operations.
•Cost/benefit, the cost of trying Magnetic therapy products is much lower than trying various drug therapies.

Arthritis pain really wears you down as it drags on for years and years; try magnetic therapy products for natural pain relief.

Macular Degeneration

Alfred Jones




Cranberry Juice is very rich in Antioxidants and Nutrients which can help to prevent degenerative illnesses and diseases, particularly those associated with the eyes, it is a well known supplement that is frequently used in overcoming UTIs or Urinary Tract Infections, and it could be called a vitamin that boosts the immune system, by increasing and improving cellular communication within the body.



Cranberries are very popular in the United States, especially around Thanksgiving Day, because it has become traditional to have it as a sauce with the Thanksgiving Turkey. The berries are very tangy and tasty, they are also loaded with Vitamin C, they were often used by sailors in days gone by, to prevent scurvy.



When Cranberry Juice is taken for Urinary Tract Infections, researchers found that patients passed a anti bacterial substance in their urine, which cured the infection. Unfortunately UTI is one of those diseases that is inclined to periodically return and become a chronic condition especially among ladies. More research has found that if taken regularly, it can be very effective in preventing a return of the infection.



Cranberry Juice is thought to attack the infection in two ways, one is through the acidity that is produced in the urine, which attacks the bacteria, secondly the Vitamin C content is an essential element in helping the immune system to do its work, because it is receiving what is needed, for efficient functioning. The immune system is the natural healer of all illnesses and diseases in the body, but of course it must have the required vitamins and nutrition for this purpose.



Cranberry Juice can also help in preventing degenerative diseases, such as heart disease, strokes and certain cancers, Cataracts are a cause for concern among the elderly, with vision impairment or even blindness, it has been know to slow down and even stop the progressive deterioration of cataracts.

It has also been shown to be very beneficial in helping to slow down macular degeneration, and to reduce the blood leakage with diabetic retinopathy.



I am not in the business of selling either Cranberries or Cranberry Juice, there are already plenty of suppliers out there, so there should not be any difficulty in obtaining a quality product, try to go for a good brand, that is as natural as it can possible be, and do not choose the cheapest, as this could be a false economic choice.

The point that I am making, is that this, is an excellent natural remedy for a number of problems. Cranberries are considered safe for everyone, but if you are going to take it for medicinal purposes, Please consult with your physician first, Antibiotics might be considered necessary, first before trying Cranberry Juice.

Licorice root side effects

John Gibb



If you are thinking about taking Licorice Root, it is important to know all the possible Licorice Root side effects before you begin a regimen. This is a must with any supplement you may take, and here we'll help describe the side effects featured by this natural remedy.


One problem with Licorice Root is that it can raise your blood pressure. Few people know that even a lot of licorice candy can raise your blood pressure! If you are afflicted with hypertension, or disease of the heart, liver, or kidney, Licorice Root may not be the supplement for you. Pregnant and nursing women should not try to harness the benefits of the Licorice Root, for it is unknown what kind of effects this supplement can have with regards to the child.


Another important thing to note, as with any supplements, is that you should never exceed the recommended dose. These are placed for a reason and over-killing a supplement can actually be detrimental to your health. These precautions regarding Licorice Root side effects apply to all sources of the remedy, including capsules, lozenges, tablets, tinctures, dried herbs, or teas. If none of these side-effects apply to you, then check out what Licorice Root has to offer:


One of the longest used herbal remedies, Licorice Root has been useful time and time again to help to alleviate coughing and ease an upset stomach. Chinese believe Licorice Root can help to extend your lifespan, although this is not proven. In addition to these features, Licorice Root has anti-inflammatory effects, immune system boosters, and many other wonderful features. For instance, containing antioxidants and flavonoids, the root can have estrogen-like effects, helping to ease PMS and menstrual problems.


Now that you know the benefits and shortcomings of Licorice Root, you can make a more informed decision on whether this herb is right for you.

Lemon And Parsley Home Remedies

Lee Dobbins



You might think of lemon and parsley as great garnishes for your drink glass and plate, but did you know that you can use them to ease symptoms of common minor ailments?



Sure, the lemon makes a good drink and even tastes good squirted on fish, but you might want to make sure you have some on hand for more than dinner. The lemon can be your best friend when you have a common headache. Simply cut a long strip of the rind and put it on your forehead – rub in the inside white part and then fasten it to your head. Sure, you'll look a little nutty but who cares as long as it gets rid of the ache!



Lemon peel is not only good for the head, but for the feet too! One age old remedy for corns is to apply a lemon peel (white side against the corn) to the corn and affix it so that it stays on overnight. You can remove it during the day, but repeat each night for 7 days.



Parsley is another great home remedy food that is often left uneaten on the side of the plate. Besides being rich in potassium and vitamins it is also reputed to strengthen the kidneys and help with waste removal. And not only that, but it can help relive bad breath too! So next time you get some parsley on your plate, eat up!



Parsley is also good as a topical remedy for bruises. Next time you have a bruise, crush up some parsley leaves and apply straight to the affected area.



One other problem that parsley is a good remedy for is bladder infections. You've probably experienced how quickly cranberry juice can clear up one of these, but if you don't like cranberries or get sick of drinking it, try a parsley tea. Simply pour some boiled water over parsley and let steep for 5 to 10 minutes. Strain out the parsley and drink.

Why everyone talking bout home

Another summer day
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home
Mmmmmmmm

Maybe surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
I just wanna go home
Oh, I miss you, you know

And I’ve been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
“I’m fine baby, how are you?”
Well I would send them but I know that it’s just not enough
My words were cold and flat
And you deserve more than that

Kyolic clears constipation and strengthens your colon

rudy silva



Garlic is another wonder herb. It has action in all areas of your body and can help you eliminate constipation. You can find it in capsules in a brand call Kyolic.



Kyolic is a special garlic preparation, which is aged for 20 months in stainless steel tanks. With this aging, garlic odor is eliminated and certain chemicals are enhanced – S-allyl-mercaptocysteine, S-allyl-cysteine. These chemicals are powerful sources for fighting various diseases – cancer, heart and liver disease.



Kyolic cleanses, soothes, and reduces inflammation throughout your gastrointestinal tract. It is rich in potassium, which is necessary colon wall contraction.



Kyolic is also effective in killing pathogens and bad bacteria that live in your colon and elsewhere in your body. It also binds to heavy metals and other toxins that exist in the blood and colon and sweeps them out of the rectum. Aside from helping in constipation, it is helpful for reducing,



· fungus and other bacteria in your ear

· skin lesions due to bites or insects stings – use liquid form

· arthritis – requires 12 capsules a day

· diabetes – requires 12 capsules a day.



You can buy it in capsule and liquid form. Capsules are easy to take and have no side effects.



Here's how to use it,



§ For mild cases of constipation take 2 tablets once or twice a day.

§ For moderate cases of constipation take 2 tablets three times a day

§ For severe cases of constipation take 2 tablets five times a day.



Or if you prefer you can take 4-5 Kyolic capsules just before going to bed.



Continue this until your constipation is cleared. You can combine this Kyolic remedy with the apples and spinach remedy to help rebuild and remove toxic material, which builds up along your colon walls.



Continuous use of Kyolic is not harmful. It is the allicin in garlic that provides the stimulation to your colon to produce peristaltic movement.



Kyolic can be bought in health food stores or on the Internet. Just type in Kyolic into the google search engine.



Garlic has blood-thinning abilities. Using it with blood thinning drugs, pentoxifylline, NSAID's is potentially dangerous since excessive blood thinning can increase blood-clotting time. Do not use 3 days before any surgical procedure.



Garlic can also cause an allergic reaction or an upset stomach in some people.



Do not use garlic if breast-feeding. Garlic can get into the breast milk giving the baby colic.



Garlic in the Kyolic capsules is an excellent way to deal with constipation. Using it improves you colon function and gives you body nutrients that make it stronger.

Jewelweed, Poison Ivy Treatment from Nature

Judi Singleton



Jewelweed, Poison Ivy Treatment from Nature

Impatiens capensis Other names:Pale Touch-Me-Not, Touch-Me-Not, Wild

Celandine, Spotted Touch-Me-Not, Speckled Jewels, Balsam Weed, Wild

Balsam, Balsam A'Florae, Slipperweed, Silverweed, Wild Lady's Slipper,

Quick-in-the-hand

I love these old names for plants they are so descriptive. You might

know Jewelweed by any of the above names. It is a member of the

Impatiens family and even the impatiens we plant in the yard have some

medicinal value against the below nasties of the wild.

Well, The weather is warm and it is time to get out in nature again. If

you are like me you like to hike and camp but there are some things

about nature that are not so much fun, like poison ivy and poison oak.
Jewelweed is a natural remedy and preventative for poison ivy, oak,
Jewel Weed is an effective natural herbal remedy not only for poison

ivy, but also for poison oak, okra spines, stinging nettle, and other

irritating plants; as well as bug bites and razor burn. Jewel Weed, is

also used for acne, heat rash, ringworm and many other skin disorders.
When traveling across the United States a few years ago I got bit by

chiggers and it proved effective for those rascally little buggers

which itch like crazy. Here are some of the other uses of Jewel Weed I

found in the herbal books. antiparasitic,digestive aid,diuretic,As a

diuretic, it is effective in cases of edema (dropsy).
liver stimulant,mildly laxative. In ointments, it can be used to treat

hemorrhoids and other varicose conditions.




Jewelweed is a smooth annual; 3-5 ft. Leaves oval, round- toothed;

lower ones opposite, upper ones alternate. A bit trumpet shaped, the

flowers hang from the plant much as a jewel from a necklace, Pale

Jewelweed has yellow flowers, Spotted Touch-Me-Nots have orange flowers

with dark red dots. The seeds will 'pop' when touched , that is where

the name came from. The Spotted Jewelweed variety is most commonly used

for rashes although the Pale Jewelweed may also have medicinal

properties. Jewelweed usually grows in wet spots next to creeks and

river beds. It grows in the vicintiy of poison oak, poison ivy and

stinging nettles. Yes, Mother Nature was very nice to us there. Jewel

weed's nectar attracts hummingbirds.

If you step in a patch of poison Ivy or poison oak don't rub it no

matter how much it itches as rubbing cause the oil to spread. Many

people even get the rash from their pets fur. If you can find Jewel

Weed you are in luck. Shred the leaves and put the juice on the rash

immediately. Fresh juice is best but if you can preserve it by freezing

ahead of time that works too. Freeze the leaves in ice cubes and

spread it on the rash. The tea is said to work like a preventive.
