How Licorice Root is a great body cleanser (especially when combined with these 8 herbs)!

27 Thursday Jul 2017

licorice root

Licorice Root really helps us!

  • Licorice’s name is from the Greek word meaning, ‘sweet’.  It’s tart sweetness is long lasting.  It can be up to 50 times sweeter than sugar without affecting insulin!
  • Licorice root is the most used herbs in Chinese medicine! (4) It has documented uses back to ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome. (5)
  • It’s been used in Chinese medicine as a “guide herb” to enhance their effects and essentially guide the other herbs to where they would be most beneficial. In 2013, this use was observed and reviewed by the Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. (3)
  • It’s been used for medicinal purposes including indigestion and stomach inflammation [42], cough suppression, ulcer treatment, and use as a laxative.  In an Iranian Journal of Pharmaceutical Research study, the leaves tested well against bacteria and thus may work as a staph and candida cure. (8)
  • It also helps: as an antiviral, antimicrobial, blood pressure, leaky gut, autoimmune issues like hepatitis, hyperlipidemia (high blood fat), inflammation-induced skin hyper pigmentation, and might help prevent neurodegenerative disorders and dental caries, anti-ulcer, anti-diabetic & anti-tumor.
  • There are at least four main types of compounds found in licorice root: flavonoids, coumarins, triterpenoids and stilbenoids. (9) 
    • Flavonoids: rich antioxidants & anti-inflammatory
      • An example is the Flavonoid glabradin which is anti-inflammatory, has effects metabolism and functions as a phytoestrogen — which creates a positive effect on women’s health. (11)
    • Coumarins & Stilbenoids: anti-inflammatory & antibiotic

    • Triterpenoids: steroid (10)

  • When Licorice Root is combined with 8 other herbs the synergistic effect is powerful!!  Here’s the only Licorice Root I purchase because it’s already combined with the 8 synergistic herbs & I trust its safety.

9 reasons you'll want licorice root

1) HEARTBURN | FOOD POISONING

  • Licorice root (glycyrrhiza glabra) helps heartburn, indigestion, nausea and stomach pain.

2) LEAKY GUT | ULCERS | CANKER SORES

  • It’s anti-inflammatory & soothing.  It protects against ulcerative disorders and helps gut health.
  • It can speed the repair of stomach lining.
  • It can suppress H.pylori. (study)
  • It can be rubbed on gums to help stop tooth bacteria and canker sores

3) LIVER | HEART | CHOLESTEROL

  • It increases bile flow and lowers cholesterol levels.
  • Bile acids account for the elimination of excessive cholesterol.
  • Licorice root’s antioxidant action may enhance capillary health & hinder arterial plaque.

4) ADRENAL FATIGUE

  • It helps us regulate cortisol (the stress hormone) more efficiently so the adrenal glands don’t wear out.

5) IMMUNITY

  • It even helps by stoping the growth of bacteria & viruses like Hepatitis C, HIV and flu.  The triterpenoid content has been confirmed as an anti-viral.  It even raises interferon, a key to fighting off viruses.  It’s anti-allergenic effect is useful for hay fever, allergies and asthma.
  • It can help herpes and shingles if ingested or applied to the skin.  Several studies show the antiviral action may suppress the return and progression of cold sores due to the herpes virus.

6) COUGH |  THROAT | RESPIRATION

  • It helps loosen and expel mucus and bring relief to a sore throat.  It also helps relax bronchial spasms while helping to fight off the viruses that cause respiratory illnesses and infections.

7) PMS / MENOPAUSE

  • It has an estrogen-like effect (phyto-estrogen) in women which helps with PMS, fertility & hot flashes.

8) PAIN RELIEF | SKIN

  • It has aspirin-like action and helps relieve fevers & soothes pain.  It helps abdominal and other muscle cramping and soothes eczema and other skin pain.
  • It helps people with chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia pain because it lowers cortisol stress levels.
  • Applied to the skin in a poultice, it helps rashes and pain due to its anti-inflammatory nature.

9) DEPRESSION

  • Licorice root contains many anti-depressant compounds.  It might be one of the most over-looked of all herbal wonders.
  • It encourages adrenal gland function.
  • It has Asparagine amino acid that is needed to preserve equilibrium in the body’s nervous system.

When Licorice Root is combined with 8 other herbs, the synergistic effect is powerful!!  Here’s the only Licorice Root (which is already combined with the other 8 herbs) I use because I trust its safety.

Buckthorn Bark Helps the bowels & liver (especially when mixed with 8 other herbs)!

03 Monday Jul 2017

Tags

bowel, constipation, diarrhea, herb lax, liver

buckthorn bark image

Here’s the purest form of Buckthorn Bark I’ve found that’s combined with 8 other synergistic herbs!

History

Buckthorn bark is peeled off plants and dried for 1-2 years before being used as a mild (but highly effective) laxative. The longer the bark is dried, the milder its actions.  Buckthorn Bark was listed in both the United States Pharmacopoeia & British Pharmacopoeia.  Some great components in Buckthorn Bark include

  • crystalline glucoside (frangulin),
  • anthraquinones like: emodin, Aloe-emodin, rhamnicoside, frangula-emodin, alaterin, chrysophanol, & rein
  • flavonoid glycosides,
  • resins
  • tannic acid.  4

3 Reasons You’ll want to get Buckthorn Bark in Your Body Every Night!

1) constipation | hemorrhoids | fissures

  • Buckthorn Bark contains rhamnus frangula which increases the colon’s ability to spontaneously contract to push the fecal matter through your colon instead of remaining stationary and becoming impacted.  As your colon contracts more regularly, more frequent movements are produced. 3
  • Buckthorn Bark makes stools softer and gives them more volume to pass easily.  5
  • Buckthorn Bark affects the intestinal nerves to relieve constipation and ease evacuation of the bowels.  It helps to relieve pain and pressure, especially for people who have hemorrhoids, anal fissures or have had rectal-anal surgery.  2
  • The tannins in Buckthorn Bark allows hemorrhoids and anal fissures to heal more quickly because the softer stools pass more easily, without irritation.
  • Buckthorn bark is used to cleanse the colon in prep for gastrointestinal procedures. 3
  • Buckthorn Bark is effective in cases of chronic constipation and atonic constipation, which is caused by inadequate intake of fluids, poor diet or overuse of purgatives that result in loss of natural reflexes. 4
  • Buckthorn Bark is also used to ease abdominal bloating.

2) blood purification

  • Buckthorn Bark has been used as a ‘blood purifier’ and diuretic.

3) liver | gallstones

  • Buckthorn Bark stimulates the production of bile secretions, which promote healthy gallbladder and liver functions, helping with problems like cirrhosis, jaundice, hepatitis and gallstones.
  • It’s also used to help overcome parasites.

When Buckthorn Bark is combined with 8 other herbs, the synergistic effect is powerful!!  Here’s the purest form of Buckthorn Bark I’ve found that is already combined with 8 other synergistic herbs!

How Rhubarb Root is a great Body Cleanser- especially when it’s mixed with 8 other herbs!

24 Saturday Jun 2017

antimicrobial, constipation, diarrhea, herb lax, kidney, liver, rhubarb root, weight loss

how rhubarb is a great body cleanser

Things that Make a Difference in How Well Rhubarb Root Works…

  • Rhubarb’s name is from the Greek verb, ‘to flow’.
  • Europeans have used Rhubarb Root medicinally since the 1200s.
  • By the end of the 1800s, it was clear that the medicinal characteristics of rhubarb are affected by the soil composition and climate, so it’s really important to purchase Rhubarb Root from a company which ensures proper soil composition & climate.
  • When Rhubarb Root is combined with 8 other herbs, the synergistic effect is powerful!!  Here’s the only Rhubarb Root I purchase because I trust its safety.

11 Reasons You’ll want to get Rhubarb Root in Your Body Every Night!

1) Rhubarb Root Helps Digestion, constipation & diarrhea!

  • When constipated, the colon is not spontaneously contracting, therefore fecal matter sits and builds in the colon causing the constipation. It’s the purgative actions of Rhubarb Root that will not only move the fecal matter but will also tone the colon so it contracts on its own more regularly.
  • The colon does not become dependent on the Rhubarb Root to contract, so once cleansed, constipation should not return.
  • It’s difficult for the contractions to completely clean the long and winding colon, therefore pockets of debris might be left behind.  This is when the astringent, tannin acid, comes after the purgative action and does a thorough wash of the colon.  It removes any left over pockets of fecal matter or infectious bacteria.
  • It gives us smoother bowel movements!  The A-factors (or anthraquinones) in Rhubarb Root act as a time released healthy laxative which is smoother than other laxatives.
  • Emodin (found in Rhubarb Root) is metabolized by the large intestine’s gut flora to help absorption, secretion, motility & peristalsis without affecting the stomach or duodenum.  1  
  • It’s helped GI bleeds by eliminating blood, bacteria and toxins.  2 , 6, 7

2) Rhubarb Root aids in weight loss!

  • It aids weight loss by dramatically increasing the rate the human burns fat
  • It optimizes metabolism by improving circulation.  The copper and iron in rhubarb stimulate the production of new red blood cells, which boosts metabolism.

3) Rhubarb Root is Antimicrobial!

  • Rhubarb’s anthraquinone has been used as antifungal 16 , 17 and molluscicidal 18 agents.
  • Rhein, from anthraquinone, has in vitro antimicrobial activity against a wide variety of gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. 3, 17, 19

4) Rhubarb Root Helps Ulcers (Helicobacter pylori)!

  • Rheum emodi extract was found to inhibit ‘in vivio’ all strains of Heliocobacter pylori (both sensitive and resistant) at a concentration of 10 mg/mL.  The H-Pylori didn’t develop any resistance to the Rhubarb Root after 10 times even though they usually acquire resistance to Amoxicillin and Clarithromycin after 10 passages.  (25)

5) Rhubarb Root Helps the Kidneys!

  • Clinical studies have evaluated rhubarb extracts in patients with CRF and report reduced uremic symptoms and reduced blood urea nitrogen. 13 , 14
  • A number of animal studies have observed the effects of rhubarb in rats with Chronic Renal Failure. Rhubarb Root tannins produced an increase in glomerular filtration rate, decreased levels of uremic toxins, and increased blood flow to the kidneys. 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12

 

 

6) Rhubarb Root Helps us Avoid  Alzheimer’s!

  • Traditional Chinese medicine suggests rhubarb improves the memory in senile patients. 15  This is because it has vitamin K which plays a significant role in brain and neuronal health.  It can prevent the oxidation of brain cells & stimulate cognitive activity to help delay or prevent the onset of this disease.
  • In in vitro experiments, rhapontigenin exerted a dose-dependent protective effect on mitochondrial functioning against amyloid beta (1-42) neurotoxicity. 1 

7) Rhubarb Root Helps Menopause!

  • Rhubarb Root’s lindleyin significantly reduced the frequency and severity of hot flashes in perimenopausal women.  (25, reference 76)
  • Lindleyin has potential beneficial applications as selective ER modulators ‘in vitro’ (25, reference 77)

8) Rhubarb Root Helps Cancer Patients!

  • Apoptosis, as well as anti tumor action, has been demonstrated, and rhubarb extract has been suggested as an adjunct to chemotherapy. 2 , 3 , 4 
  • Rhubarb is anti inflammatory.  Rhubarb extract 20 mg/kg daily administered for 6 weeks to patients undergoing radiation therapy for cancer resulted in a reduction in radiation-induced lung toxicity in a randomized clinical trial. Evaluation of anti-inflammatory markers suggests that an anti-inflammatory action of rhubarb is responsible. 5

9) Rhubarb Root helps Bones!

  • The vitamin K in Rhubarb Root stimulates bone growth & repair.

 

10) Rhubarb Root helps the Heart!

  • It protects against cardiovascular conditions due to the high antioxidant content.

11) Rhubarb Root Helps the Liver!

  • In rats with induced cholestatic hepatitis, emodin caused a decrease in total bilirubin, improvement in the liver enzyme profile & liver regeneration. 20
  • 2 Other great things rhubarb does include anti platelet properties, 21 anti hypertensive effects, 22 anti inflammatory action, 23 and glucose homeostasis. 24

 

 

When Rhubarb Root is combined with 8 other herbs, the synergistic effect is powerful!!  Here’s the only Rhubarb Root I purchase because I trust its safety.

CLEANSE lymph

Why I ♥ this!

Allergic reactions cause inflammation (in the joints, intestines, sinuses), hives (and other skin rashes, bumps), pain, foggy thinking and exhaustion.  I want those effects to leave as soon as possible!  I used to have 37 acquired allergies.  I dreaded these awful symptoms!   Here’s what I did to get over the initial allergic response & to strengthen my immunity to help avoid future pain.  I take ALFALFA and rub on Herbal Blend cream (to stop the itch!) and move on to this amazing list that has helped me every time…

  1. NUTRIFERON► raises immunity, increases interferon, contains MACH (patented blend of pumpkin seeds, safflower flowers, plantago seeds & honeysuckle buds) to stimulate cellular immunity!
  2. HERB LAX► mild cleansing
  3. LIVER DTX► helps bile flow, milk thistle standardized to 80% silymarin, antioxidant (reishi mushroom, schizandra chinesnsis)
  4. VIVIX► global cutting-edge cellular DNA repair, phytonutrient, anti-inflammatory, defends cells, increases energy production, resveratrol (ingredient in Vivix) repairs cellular ‘typos’, anti-inflammatory response to high fat/carb diet!
  5. DETOX BATHS► helps our largest organ (the skin) to release toxins.
  6. REBOUNDING► up & down movement forces lymphatic fluid to flow & flush toxins, supports bones & joints (NASA uses it with astronauts regain bone density when returning from space), ↓ cellulite, ↓ weight, fun, ↑ balance & posture, ↑ cardiovascular, endocrine & immunity!
  7. PERFORMANCE► hydrates better than water, balances electrolytes, maintains blood sugar, stamina builder
  8. LYMPHATIC MASSAGE► help nodes to drain from MassageByHeather.com

 

Here are some great stories…

alfalfa nature's multitasker

This super green food does many great things!

More info about Detoxification from our private L&E site.

Benefits I’ve found using alfalfa…

  • super-green food
  • super-alkalizing food
  • thins blood
  • thins mucus
  • body deodorizer
  • helps clear acne
  • increases milk supply
  • alleviates pregnancy discomfort
  • anti-nausea
  • anti-histamine
  • anti-inflammatory
  • helped arthritis
  • deep root system obtains more nutrients
  • anti-edema
  • helps allergies
  • digestive enzymes
  • relieves sinus congestion
  • detoxes thyroid

FAQ…

  • What nutrients are found in Alfalfa?
    • Protein, Vitamin A, C, E, calcium, potassium, phosphorus & iron
  • Can someone be allergic to Alfalfa?
    • Yes, but only the stem portion of the plant causes allergies.  The brand I trust removes the stems so it doesn’t cause allergies!
  • Does it matter how the alfalfa is processed in terms of effectiveness?
    • Absolutely!  The brand I trust only uses 7 yr old & older plants.  This means the roots are at least 25 feet deep and they can pull up the nutrient reserves from deep in the soil!  We use no herbicides, pesticides, fungicides, bactericides, growth regulators, hormones or other chemicals which deplete the nutrients and add toxicity.  We use special harvesting equipment to make certain the greatest concentration of vitamins and minerals are maintained.  To get the best results, we must use the best techniques!
  • Why is the serving size so large (10 tabs)?
    • If I wanted to eat a veggie serving, I wouldn’t eat just one pea or just one blueberry and expect great results.  Since alfalfa is a food, and our alfalfa is concentrated into a tablet form, we don’t have to eat platefuls of alfalfa plant to get the healthy results.  I use 1-7 servings of our alfalfa each day, depending on how many symptoms I want to address.

Grape extract kills cancer cells

Resveretrol — found in grapes — Previous research has shown grapeseed extract has an effect on skin, breast, bowel, lung, stomach and prostate cancer cells in the laboratory.  It can also reduce the size of breast tumours in rats and skin tumours in mice.  However, the University of Kentucky study is the first to test its impact on a blood cancer.  Lead researcher Professor Xianglin Shi said: “These results could have implications for the incorporation of agents such as grapeseed extract into prevention or treatment of haematological (blood) malignancies and possibly other cancers.  “What everyone seeks is an agent that has an effect on cancer cells but leaves normal cells alone, and this shows that grapeseed extract fits into this category.”      more from BBC

(November 28, 2008) — Family life gets crazy around the holidays, and kids can get out of their bathroom routine. A new study finds childhood constipation is much more than an inconvenience – it’s a common, sometimes serious medical problem that costs nearly billion each year to treat. That’s equal to major chronic illnesses like asthma and ADHD. We have some important tips for parents to help treat or prevent the problem before it gets serious. … > full story

OUR COMMENTS

Motto:  “If it goes in, it must come out!”  

  • If you eat one full meal a day, you should have one full bowel movement a day.  (2 meals, 2 movements, etc.)  
  • Ideally, BMs should float, clean easily (not liquid, sticky or hard), and not smell too odorous.   
  • If you don’t have the ‘ideal BM’, you can increase fiber, herbs and alkalinity.

 

Fiber

  • helps digestion 
  • eases constipation,
  • cleanses bowel, blood and arteries.   

 

Herb Lax

  • strengthens intestinal muscle action
  • cleanses intestine and blood
  • increases nutrient absorption
  •  

    Alfalfa   

    • increases alkalinity of cellular system
    • enzymes help digest food in the stomach before it enters the intestine
    • natural body deodorizer

      • Tea consumption had its origin in China more than 4,000 years ago[5]. Green tea has been used as traditional medicine in areas such as China, Japan, India and Thailand to help everything from controlling bleeding and helping heal wounds to regulating body temperature, blood sugar and promoting digestion.
      • The Kissa Yojoki (Book of Tea), written by Zen priest Eisai in 1191, describes how drinking green tea can have a positive effect on the five vital organs, especially the heart. The book discusses tea’s medicinal qualities, which include easing the effects of alcohol, acting as a stimulant, curing blotchiness, quenching thirst, eliminating indigestion, curing beriberi disease, preventing fatigue, and improving urinary and brain function.

      • Japanese researchers claim that drinking five cups of green tea a day can burn 70 to 80 extra calories. Dr. Nicholas Perricone, a self-proclaimed anti-aging specialist, appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show and told Oprah’s viewers they can lose 10 lbs (4.5 kg) in 6 weeks drinking green tea instead of coffee.
