A Global Blend of Fragrant Herbs Create a feeling of health and well being with this herbal tea HOW THE TEA BEGAN: Whilst working in a hospital in
Tijuana Mexico, I became aware that patients were given a special herbal tea to
drink throughout the day. Now the field has broadened. To quote a well-known professor of Encology when informing a patient he was free from cancer, “The tests show you are now in remission, I suggest you keep on drinking that tea.” DR Joan Dale STRESS, POLLUTION, INADEQUATE DIET AND LACK OF EXERCISE ALL TAKE A HEAVY TOLL ON OUR BODY: Of course most of us lead a
busy life which makes it tempting to succumb to easy and timesaving alternatives
with questionable nutritional value at meal times. We don’t set aside enough
time to relax, but instead put too much emphasis on meeting daily deadlines.
Sometimes stress, like pollution, is difficult to avoid. But all these dangers
to good health can be effectively neutralized if we take responsibility for our
own well-being. We hope you too can experience similar benefits and a feeling of well-being. PLANT POWER: The use of plants in the
treatment of health problems had its origins in man’s evolution from his more
primitive forms. It was not until many thousands of years had gone by, and
communication from one generation to another over the centuries, that it became
apparent that the use of plants for medicinal purposes could be beneficial to
people suffering from many forms of disease. During the 18th Century, a new
class of industrialists became intensified. It was a period, which saw the
growth of the population from the countryside to industrial areas, unfortunately
at the expense of the country and the people. It was also the beginning of a
period, which saw a conflict between the Physician who preferred to attend the
needs of the wealthy, and those who exploited the needs of the working class.
Many people, when living in the country, would have treated themselves, by
collecting from the countryside, various herbs and plants to help them with
various health problems, rather than resort to drugs, with their many side
effects. However, people should be warned that the indiscriminate use of various
plants, used in unbalanced proportions can be quite harmful, and cause
irrevocable damage, as well as reverse the process of what they are trying to
achieve. RED CLOVER (Trifolium pralense) "All ancient medicine was herbal, and the ancient Romans, Greeks and, Hebrews, etc., not only used herbs for medicinal purposes, but they were also part of their religion. Hippocrates used four hundred different herbs in his Temple of Aesculapius in Greece in the 4th Century BC, and a hundred of those original herbs are used today. Disocorides created British medical history with his ‘Madeira Medical’ in 100 AD and his use of herbs as the basis of medical practice was used for sixteen centuries. The cultivation of herbs flourished in the Middle Ages, and one of the herbal plants used widely was what we call Red Clover, or correct name Trifolium Pratense, meaning flowers, which are grown extensively in Mid and Southern European countries. Flowering time is early Spring to late Summer and the plants are harvested when in full bloom. The flowers are vivid red. There is also a white clover, except that the medicinal qualities are considered to be more potent in the Red Clover. The plants are exported to many countries, including the USA and Australia. Red Clover is generally used today by herbalists as a blood cleanser. Used in conjunction with Gotu Kola and Chaparral in precise proportions, it helps to break up growths and tumors, and is a total liver cleanser.” Red Clover has been used to restore fertility. It is especially good to calm the nerves and cleanse the blood. It helps to break growths and tumors when in combination with Chaparral and other herbs. CHAPARRAL ( Larrea divaricala,Larrea mexicane) “During the last decade, a lot of attention has been concentrated by the Medical profession on a herb called Chaparral - a shrub that contains a certain component that has the extraordinary ability to halt the progression of many forms of cancer, including leukemia. Research in the USA has focused on Chaparral to try to identify the particular substance in the shrub that seems to target tumors, and to examine what appears to be its anti-cancer ingredient. There is no doubt as to the value of this plant in the management of many health problems. Medical historians have become aware that this shrub was used extensively by the Ancient Aztecs, who combined it with other herbal properties, not only to help with various illnesses, but also to give them a feeling of health and vitality. Recently discovered amongst the ancient ruins of the Aztecs were some herbs, one of which was identified as Chaparral. Grown extensively in the southern countries of America, including Peru, it is now grown in certain areas of the USA. Because of the powerful properties contained in this herb, it is unavailable to the public. It must be used in correct balance in relation to other herbs. It is particularly beneficial when used in correct proportions with Red Clover and Gotu Kola.” Chaparral is an astringent and can be used extensive for sores and wounds. When combined with Red Clover and Gotu Kola it is used to help rid the body of growths and tumors by purifying the blood. GOTU KOLA or PENNYWORT (Hydrocotyl Asiatica)“Situated in many remote areas of Tibet are a number of temples. Meditation is not just practiced, but is a way of life. The average age of the majority of people who have lived in these Temples for many years is approximately 120 years. Many of them attain the age of 150 years. It is the belief of these people, many of whom are Monks, that a man does not gain wisdom and understanding until 70 years of age. They believe that man is not only what he eats and what he drinks, but also how he thinks. It was noted by a group of researchers from various ‘civilized’ countries doing research into the longevity of the Monks that everyone drank an herbal tea mixture. On being questioned, the Monks said that people had been drinking it for over two centuries. It was stated that the herbal liquid not only purified the body, but also helped to direct their minds into positive awareness. It seems that it originally came from the Himalayan Mountains, and was sent to Indian markets; and across to Mongolia, where the herb grows in abundance and was soon cultivated by the Monks of Tibet. We are fortunate to have these herbs made available to us in our “civilized” country". Gotu Kola is known as the Brain Food’ as it improves the memory and retards the aging process. PENNYWORT The common name for plants of
the Hydrocotyl Family. More Information The extraordinary endurance of
athletes, plus people who work out regularly in gyms, and those who jog morning
and night certainly enhance their muscles and reduce the fat contents of their
body. However, the role of the blood seems to be ignored and struggles along
trying to get rid of waste matter built up in the body. Take care of the inner body and the rest will take care of it self. You will be as happy and healthy as you deserve to be.
