Liver friends, Medical Aromatherapy by Kurt Schnaubelt, 375 Essential Oils & Hydrosols by Jeanne Rose, etc.

Hiya Folks:

Have been mostly lurking this Winter due to this and that, but wanted to send a

note addressing two inquiries.

 

Liver friendly herbs: Dandelion root, of course, but don't think anyone has

mentioned Milk Thistle and it is one of the best. We have a friend that has

been supplementing his diet with the Milk Thistle and doing well with it. He

has Cirrhosis of the Liver. Also, I've read about the Buckthorn Berry being

great for the Liver. No experience with it tho. Since how Chris has the

additional Buckthorn Berry potential coming up, you might want to try it.

 

Liver Cleanse~ Do have to agree with Gayla on Huda Clark's whole body cleanse.

It takes a few weeks, but is very thorough and altho some folks think she's a

quack, I think her cleanse is much better than many of the fly by night

companies out there that cost a fortune and may not give you any benefit either.

I confess, I even have a Hulda Clark homemade zapper. Our daughter and sil

made it and I talked them out of it. <grin> She states that you can get very

sick by not doing the colon & kidney cleanse before doing the Liver Cleanse, and

I tend to agree with that. If you don't want to go the whole route, then the

Liver support herbs above should help. I tend to think of the Essiac formula as

a detoxifier rather than a cleanse. I use it and highly recommend it. Folks

say that you should not use Essiac if you have brain tumors.

 

Ahhhh those lovely Aromatherapy & Herbal books. Some of my favorites are:

Ulla-Malja Grace's 'Aromatherapy for Practitioners', Julia Lawless' either one

of hers 'The Encyclopedia' or the 'The Complete Illustrated Guide to

Aromatherapy', Jeanne Rose's " 375 Essential Oils and Hydrosols, and Kurt

Schnaubelt's " Medical Aromatherapy' book.

 

Lotions and such: Donna Maria's Lotions book. Don't have it right near by to

have the correct title of it tho. Very detailed, uses lots of ingredients, lots

of recipes. My only problem with this book is: I would like a simpler

ingredient list on some recipes. In other words: It costs a fortune to have

all those ingredients on hand to do a lot of her recipes.

 

The one herbal I will never be without~I hope~is: 'Herbally Yours' by Penny C

Royal. Buy it frequently as gifts for herbalist friends, and always have at

least two copies for myself. It is a cheap book and well worth having. Do wish

she would update/revise it with a wider variety of herbs in the future, but it

has a great number of herbs listed as is.

 

My Library is much bigger, but those are a good intro to herbs & oils, etc. One

thing about Essential Oil books, I never just use one as a reference. I double

check all the ones I have when looking up specifics, and highly recommend that

everyone do that. I don't have Martin's book yet, but hope to buy it this year.

 

A most fragrant evening to ya,

deb

I just picked up Martin's book Frankincense and Myrrh and have been studying

the Monologues for about a month now...Good stuff for sure!
