Hope Herbs and the Graces of God





















All forms of Disabilities have plagued Gods people and then the so called man made medications that may even HELP us get through the disabilities are more damaging than help. (they put us in bondage a slavery to the manufactures and their regulators otherwise known as the government ).Think about it; if a pill cured a disability what would happen to its manufacturer? You got it they would go out of business. BUT OUT OF GOODNESS. But the majority of this  Generation is composed of 2 aliments 
1. GREED and 2. PRIDE. So is this what we want to turn to for help? however, God offers the best Solution for all disabilities. and they are Natural and to composed of 2 elements 1. Love and 2.Truth and through both of these; individually and collectively he demonstrates CHARITY. Yes sometimes with pain or sorrow but TRUE CHARITY which heals all disabilities. and its proven by examples
here is only one example with diabetes
But there are many other natural Solutions that will heal but before even that begins to work we must get rid of every ounce of PRIDE within our lives, not for one day but a lifetime. For any true healing of any disability is a lifetime. But in the healing process one will gain HOPE and as time goes on JOY then Peace then Charity THEN THEY WILL SE KNOW AND FEEL LOVE AND TRUTH and then and only then all will be well!!


ACHIEVED ALL THROUGH HUMILITY… the complete opposite of PRIDE.


God Bless,






Below is a short video off a man on many man made medications who decided to trust GOD and help his disability with God given desires and resources "HERBS" and "PERSEVERANCE" two more components.







Like I sad Previously there are many natural Solutions for disabilities and or circumstances. here are a few more but many many more...




Poor Circulation:Cyane, Ginger, Hawthorne, all used to increase circulation If there was a need for amputation due to poor circulation why not trust God and eliminate any pride and try this with your doctor(humility).


Epilepsy: Valerian, Hops, Black Cohosh, Skullcap,Passion Flower Bee pollen ( to supplement the full and trusts spectrum of B complex vitamins), GABA,Taurine,
There is even a Rice diet that has helped those with Epilepsy.


Diabetes Herbs: Watch this video and watch GOD at work…

Lou Gerichs Disease: Incurable by Western Medicine But TOTALY REVERSIBLE with natural medicines. 
Cancer: Esiac Tea is one of the most powerful tonics on the face of this earth 
There are many other great natural solutions That help disabilities as well.




In Conclusion Throughout this blog I have given your some solutions for free why not do the same for someone else wether it be an elder person, Shut In, or a person with a disability. Charity is another for of healing that comes from God and is above all the most powerful particularly if done with a pure intentions!!!





                                                                                                                                                                   If you do not have God in your life why not give him a try but not only for a cure but because of Charity. If you are blaming God for something; a death, Loss of a loved one or any other excuse then watch this short video clip from Start to Finish.

Making a Power Survival Tonic in Detail


Making a Power Survival Tonic in Detail

A Tonic is used to supplement the nutrition of the ENTIRE human anatomy and main systems and vital organs independently and collectively. 
The Goal is to supply nutrition mainly to the Central Nervous system which will help all the other main systems and dispense necessary nutrients to the skeletal and muscular systems. 

Note: Each superfood/herb is absorbed at a 1. different rate, 2. and absorb more in different parts of the body. This is because the natural enzymes attach itself to the molecular structure AS NEEDED until fulfilled.(Complete)  e.g. a certain herb may absorb more effectively in the intestinal wall or GI track or even blood stream (vascular wall because their is a better Nutrient call or pathway to a targeted area or system of the body. 





Take Slippery Elm bark, this herb is so nutritious that if famine broke out one could nutritionally survive on it alone. It is also said that it is the only herb that will go through the entire body and every organ individually and if there happens to be a ulcer or cancerous sore/tumor it will remain around the ulcer or sore or tumor and provide nutrients and eliminate the cancer from the sore nutritionally.





Another example is Bee Pollen this powerhouse provides mineral , vitamins and amino acids and hormones and more This superfood TARGETS THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM SPECIFICALLY by providing a TRUE spectrum of "B" vitamins and more, to nourish the brain . Then in turn while keeping the main systems healthy. it provides optimal nutrient support fotr the immune system. 


Other Powerhouse Supplementation's:
Celery will help recovery the body after loss of fluids slowly and safely. If you ever worked out hard and drank a chemical recovery drink Try Celery juice it will replace the sodium levels in an unbelievable fashion and safely.
Coconut Water This will provide another form of rehydration as well al supplying electrolytes and helping balance a PH level.
Coconut Oil taking a tablespoon of raw organic Virgin coconut oil will help ANY herb absorb more effectively and will provide nutritional support that will increase or maintain healthy energy levels.

A good natural survival tonic powder recipe

10 ounces of warm filtered water
1/8 part Bee Pollen 
2 parts slippery elm bark
1 part Chlorella
1 part Spiruilla
Take this in a natural non processed juice or warm water can be sweetened with RAW Wildflower honey.

Follow up with a tablespoon of Coconut oil both right before and immediately after This will bring this nutritional tonic to a new level both absortionwise and the way it is distorted molecularly but Naturally without ANY synthisization(s)

Bee Pollen as a food for Survival





















Bee Pollen as a Food for Survival


Be Pollen has many nutrients it is highly beneficial with a full spectrum of B vitamins, Minerals,proteins, free amino acids, hormones and trace elements. And they are true vitamins individually and collectively.  This is because there is no need of synthisization to produce a new b vitamin. This again is due to the cross pollination and how the bees collect their pollen. Its main ingredients consist of 21 percent protein, 48 percent Carbohydrates,10 percent fatty acids, 3 percent ash, 14 percent fiber.

The B vitamin spectrum especially B6, niacin, B12, B9, and B15 are all vital supplements for the central nervous system which in turn supports all the other main systems. 




A few of the  vitamins found in bee pollen are; Thiamine(vitamin B1) , Riboflavin(B2), Pyridoxine(vitamin B6), Nicotinic Acid(Nicotinamide), Pantothenic Acid(part of B complex) Ascorbic Acid(vitamin C) ,
Retinol(vitamin A), Tocopherol(vitamin E)
All the nutrient however effect the entire body and especially in the production of natural energy (this requires a constant level of B12 to be maintained during an energy cycle). 


No other food on earth offers such a broad spectrum of nutrition  and naturally, Bee pollen is not only a good food source but a medicine. Domestic and Raw bee pollen is the best and must be refrigerated. 






Bee Pollen Medicinally helps maintain a strong immune system and will aid in helping strengthen a weak one. 










"Bee Pollen Tonic Recipe"
6 ounces of warm filtered water( not hot)
1/8 teaspoon of Raw domestic bee pollen
Mix very well drink down and any leftover granules swallow whole chased down with a little warm filtered water. 

Note Do not give bee products to infants or young children or if you are allergic to bee products if you are in doubt chet with a  traditional MD.



Making Herbal Tinctures


 Herbal Tinctures

Herbal Tinctures are a herbs in a concentrated form it is said at times to be at 12 times its normal strength.  This is because during the infusion process all the nutrients and vital enzymes are collected and all collectively and naturally infused as one nutrient. this nutrient can be in anti biotic form anti- septic form as a calmative or even all brought together in formulation for a multiple purpose solution. The purpose of the concentrated nutrient will directly address another nutrient that has been compromised through malnutrition illness or passed through by the food process. Example one of the Main symptoms of a Cold and flu is a week immune system. So how do we directly address the week immune system not only to make it strong again but the ability to maintain a all healthy nutrients levels this will build a good foundation for overall health and wellness. "NATURALLY" an example of this a few herbs to use would be echinacea and goldenseal as a combination/ formula  for a duration of initial wellness then Slippery elm bark is another powerhouse of a nutritional herb. So powerful if famine broke out you could literally live off this alone indefinitely. and is safe enough to give to an infant.  Also herbal tinctures are convenient to administer you an take it in a juice warm water or subliminally or on the tongue. 
There are various types of tinctures: 
Alcohol Tinctures These are the mother of the tinctures they have a long shelf life before they begin to loose their potency.
Glycerin Tincture These tinctures are great for diabetics and or children where alcohol would not be applicable in its administration particularly with children diabetics those with alcohol problems.
Acid Tinctures These are herbal tinctures extracted with an organic apple cider vinegar preferable raw. they are less potent and shelf life is short they are good for a common cold season or sporadically during the year.



Note when making a tincture it is said to press the infused/ Soaked herbs then discard them Why I am doing now is taking the press herbs in a coffee grinder and grinding the as much as possible and placing them back into the Pressed liquid then bottle it with all the natural plant materials it creates  an ongoing infusion process to maintain it true potencie(s) and achieve a deeper and greater extraction process. This was taught to me by a natural doctor. he said if the tincture liquid is particalless it is missed its true potential.

Also remember Roots and seed are the sternest pert of the herbal plant and are very potent for ttincure making. Think about it, The BEGINNING (root) and the end(when the herb goes to seed all nutrients concentrate up t the seed )this is goos not only for tincture potency but making your own essential oils.


When using Alchol tinctures sometime it is required to use a min strength of 100 proof for a good extraction Also the better grade alcohol the better the preservation of the tincture (longer shelf life before it begins to loose its potency) 


A good Alchohol Tincture recipe.
1 ounce echinacea plant antibiotic and antibacterial properties
1/2 ounce of echinacea Root plant antibiotic and antibacterial properties but much more potent
1/4 ounce Goldenseal  antiseptic properties
1/4 ounce of pure raw Bee pollen

directions:
Place all ingredients in a clan jar and initially fill it so that all combined herbs are now equal to one part so we need to add three pars of good 100 proof alcohol like grain or vodka and shoe it well let it sit for a day in a dark cool place like a (Shoebox in a cloud room or basement) then after the first day check the liquid levels and add more alcohol if needed(the hens will absorb the initial alcohol quickly then shake daily for two weeks but then let it sit for a total of a miminum of 6 weeks but a word of advise the longer the better.(better extraction more potent and better formulated).

A good Acid Ticture

Apple Cider Garlic this will hep get rid of the cold and even a strong virus due to the anti-viral properties of Garlic.

2 cloves of garlic pressed in a clean glass jar
1/2 teaspoon of dried oregano
4 ounces of Organic Raw unfiltered Apple cider vinegar 

directions:
Place all in a clean glass jar and shake daily for two weeks and then it is ready for use as needed.

A simple Glycerine Tincture 

Due to its limited extraction capabilities and preservation I would limit these to plant materials and not rely on them for a good root extraction.  You will se retail versions of glycerine tincture but they are exreacted through a process of forced distillation and during this process critical enzymes and molecular wall are damage making it not as potent as a homemade cold infused tincture.

2 ounces od dried dandelion greens
4 ounces of food grade vegetable glycerine
3 ounces of distilled water

directions:
First mix the distilled water and the glycerine until it becomes very clear.

place herbs in a clean glass jar and add 2 parts glycerine
mix well then add more glycerine until it is about 1 inch above the soaked herb shake well for 2 weeks let stand in a cool dark place for 4 weeks and use are needed it is said glycerine tincture begin to loose there potency after only one year.

The power of Thyme


The power of Thyme















Thyme is a powerful herb with strong antiseptic properties. This her is also another antibiotic great for Cold and Flus, Bronchitis and even pneumonia.
