00:01 The vast majority of illnesses fall in just a few categories
00:05 and can be treated by a very few remedies... 00:09 and most people can do those remedies very well 00:14 We'd like to talk with you about home remedies and simple 00:17 things that you can do for the vast majority of ailments. 00:20 I'm Agatha Thrash, a staff physician from 00:23 Uchee Pines Institute... 00:24 And for the next half an hour, we'll be talking about 00:27 home remedies. 00:48 Welcome to "Help Yourself to Health" 00:50 with Dr. Agatha Thrash of Uchee Pines Institute 00:54 and now, here's your host Dr. Thrash. 01:00 Sometimes when I tell people they should apply a home remedy, 01:04 they say, "Oh, I couldn't DO that. " 01:07 "I'm not a doctor, or I'm not a nurse and I don't know how. " 01:11 And generally, when I tell them that it's probably going 01:14 to be about as simple as making a cup of tea, 01:16 or boiling some water on the stove... 01:19 Then they think, "Well, it probably wouldn't do me any good 01:23 if it's that simple, and neither one of those 01:26 is really probably right on the mark. 01:29 What we need to know about home remedies is that 01:31 any well-equipped home can give you the equipment that 01:34 you need for doing the home remedies for the most part. 01:38 There are a few things that you need to have on hand. 01:41 And sometimes there are a few special routines that you may 01:46 need to learn, but all of these are simple. 01:49 Most of them can be explained on a telephone, 01:52 or can be read from a book, and you can follow them quite well. 01:55 A few illustrations in a home remedies book can often be 01:59 ALL that you need to make it so that you can follow 02:02 the remedy quite nicely. 02:03 Now, we'd like to start today with talking about allergies. 02:07 And since food allergies represent the great majority 02:11 of the allergies that we have, 02:13 we will start with a food allergy. 02:15 Now let me just explain the last statement that I made. 02:18 I said that food allergies make up the vast majority 02:22 of allergies. 02:23 Well, think of it this way... 02:24 You may say, "Well, I get sick in the spring and in the fall 02:27 when the pollens are in the air. 02:29 Well that may be... but during an entire pollen season, 02:33 you may be exposed to as much as maybe 1 teaspoonful 02:38 of something floating in the air, 02:40 but at every meal, you're exposed to cupfuls of food 02:44 and all of those things that go into the body are considered 02:47 by the body to be a foreign element, 02:50 and you can develop an allergy to it. 02:53 Without any question, that thing that gives us the greatest 02:58 amount of allergenic activity, is that of dairy products. 03:02 I supposed that's because many of us were exposed to dairy 03:06 products in infancy or childhood and 03:09 we developed allergies to these. 03:11 Now I have with me today, Don Miller, 03:14 who is from Uchee Pines Institute... 03:16 He is a lifestyle counselor there and in our 03:20 education department, and he will talk with you some 03:22 about dairy allergies. So you can start us off... 03:25 Okay... dairy allergies is the #1 allergen in the world. 03:29 And Dr. Thrash has already mentioned that the early 03:33 exposure to dairy milk will lead to allergies later on. 03:37 And, we find that children who were exposed as infants 03:41 to dairy milk, have a far greater likelihood 03:44 of developing asthma as they get older, 03:47 and things like eczema as they get older. 03:49 As a matter of fact, these things have become much more 03:52 prevalent in this society as years have gone on... 03:55 because of a few things that have happened in our society. 03:58 One, an infant's immune system is still developing, 04:02 and the best way to boost the immune system of an infant, 04:05 is by mother's milk, not cow's milk. 04:08 And children are being taken off the breast and onto the cow 04:13 and, therefore, their immune systems never really develop 04:15 as much as they should, and they're going to have dairy 04:18 allergies down through their lives. 04:20 We are the only species of animal that never really 04:24 weans itself. 04:26 We take dairy products throughout our lives... 04:28 And most people have a dairy allergy. 04:31 It is interesting, the late Dr. Frank Oski, 04:34 wrote a book called, "Don't Drink Your Milk" 04:37 and in the book, he said that he had never seen a child 04:41 with an ear infection or throat infection who had not 04:44 previously drank milk within the previous 5 days... 04:49 ...a very close connection. 04:51 A few years ago, we received a phone call at Uchee Pines 04:56 by Dr. Calvin Thrash... 04:58 And a woman was distraught down in Florida. 05:01 "My child... she's been having earaches, runny nose and 05:06 throat sores... all for a long time. 05:08 Took her to a pediatrician and they've got her scheduled 05:11 to have her tonsils taken out, and her adenoids taken out 05:15 and to have shunts put in her ears... 05:17 Ohhh... what should I do?" 05:19 And Dr. Calvin, the sage man that he was... 05:22 He says, "Ma'am, I'm not even going to ask you whether 05:27 your child is on dairy products because I know that she is. 05:30 Take her off of the dairy products. " 05:32 And then he also told her to give some goldenseal 05:35 and Echinacea, a few simple things. 05:37 Well, the mother did that and within a few days, 05:40 the child was completely cleared up. 05:42 Well, she took her child back to the pediatrician 05:44 and the pediatrician examined her and he said... 05:46 "Well, your daughter is doing fine. 05:48 The medications are working. " 05:49 And the mother says, "We didn't give her the medications, 05:52 we took her off of the dairy products. " 05:54 And the doctor says... "Yes, that would have worked too. " 05:58 Well, the mother was shocked that she would have taken 06:01 all these parts of her daughter's body out 06:03 rather than take away milk, and so she left... 06:06 And now they're medical missionaries in PNG, 06:11 and doing a wonderful work. 06:12 God knows how to take care of his children. 06:14 Now, milk allergies are very, very strong for people who 06:20 have that sensitivity. 06:21 I was staying with a family in England a couple of years ago 06:24 and the grandson had a severe dairy allergy. 06:28 And, any BIT of it and he would have these sinus inflammations 06:36 and all these allergic reactions. 06:38 Well, he had been off of dairy for a long time... 06:41 I had finally gotten him off the dairy and 06:42 one day he walked into the house... he was sniffing and 06:45 his eyes were a little bit puffy and he was 06:46 drinking a can of something. 06:47 I said, "Well, son, what are you drinking there?" 06:50 He said, "Oh, this is a smoothie. " 06:53 I said, "Oh, what's in the smoothie?" 06:55 Oh... just good stuff. 06:57 There are no dairy products in there. 06:58 And I said, "Well, let me see it anyway. " 06:59 So I looked at the can and I'm reading the ingredients 07:02 and about the 3rd ingredient was cream. 07:05 And I said, "Son, this has cream in it. " 07:08 He said, "Yeah but, that's okay isn't it?" 07:10 I said, "What do you think cream comes from?" 07:12 He said, "Well, it comes from the crop. " 07:14 I said, "What?" I mean, English accents I can't pick up. 07:18 I said, "It comes from where?" 07:19 He said, "From the crop. " 07:20 And he said, "Remember... cream of the crop. " 07:22 I said, "No Josh, "cream of the crop" is just a saying... 07:26 it comes from a cow. " 07:28 And so from that small ingredient in this can of stuff, 07:31 he had an allergic reaction. 07:33 We need to be away from the world's #1 food allergy... 07:36 or allergen which is dairy products... 07:38 and once we are, we're going to find we're going to be 07:41 far more cleared up in the nose and the head 07:43 and everywhere else, Dr. Thrash. 07:44 And you know, a lot of people are suffering from a 07:47 dairy allergy when they think it's something 07:48 altogether different. 07:49 They think they have a weak stomach, 07:51 or they think they have weak lungs, 07:53 or weak sinuses, and it's really only a dairy allergy. 07:57 Now what do you do if you already have an exposure to 08:00 to milk and you KNOW you're sensitive to it. 08:02 Well, there are several things that you can do... 08:04 You can, of course, take nettles tea. 08:07 You can take charcoal. 08:09 You can take some anti-inflammatory things... 08:11 Or you can do hydrotherapy. 08:13 Hydrotherapy is really quite good. 08:16 And I have with me today, Valerie Schreiber, 08:19 who is going to talk with you about some of the 08:23 things that she does when she has someone who 08:26 has an allergic reaction. 08:28 Valerie... What can you tell us? 08:31 What I'm going to show you how to do is a treatment that 08:33 you can actually do on yourself, 08:35 and, of course, you can do this very same thing to someone else 08:37 So I'm going to have Melissa lie up here as though 08:40 she were in the bed... 08:42 And the first thing that you want to do is to draw 08:45 the congestion away from the head because 08:48 here's where the sinuses are... 08:49 here's where all the pain is... 08:50 And many times, you have a bad headache and stuffed up nose 08:54 and your cheekbones hurt quite a bit. 08:57 So, you want to do that by placing their feet in some 09:01 nice hot water, tolerable. 09:04 And so what this does is, it begins to take the congestion 09:08 ...congestion simply means that there is pooled blood 09:11 in that area of the head, or congestion lymph fluids as well 09:16 And so you want to release that and it will pull it on down 09:20 to the feet. 09:21 And then the next thing you'd want to do is 09:23 get yourself just a regular, nice thick hand towel 09:27 and you can take this hand towel, wet it down real good 09:30 in water, wring it out, put it put it in a plastic bag 09:33 and microwave it if you have a microwave. 09:36 If you don't have a microwave, then just put it over a pot 09:40 and just boil it down into a pot till where it's real nice 09:42 and hot... or sometimes your own faucet hot water 09:45 is hot enough. 09:47 Then you can take this hot pack 09:51 and you can wrap it in another towel, 09:53 because you don't want it to burn your face, 09:55 and then just put it right over top of your head... 09:59 leave it so that your nose... you can breathe. 10:03 And when you're doing this for yourself, you'll probably 10:05 want to do this for... oh, 20 minutes to a half hour 10:08 and you can, if you have a heating pad... 10:10 You can lay a heating pad over this and it will keep it hot 10:13 for that long and you won't need to exchange it. 10:16 Most of the time, this will do the trick. 10:18 However, there's another treatment that you can do 10:22 that is equally as nice. 10:23 You can get yourself a bowl like this... 10:27 fill it with hot water and then have yourself 10:29 another bowl that you can finish with cold water 10:33 because usually we finish our treatments with cold. 10:35 However, sometimes in sinuses, they're very delicate 10:38 and they don't like anything cold. 10:40 So you can fill this with cold water, 10:42 and then you would just... and I'll stand side too 10:45 so you can see how to do this... 10:47 so that you can continue to breathe 10:48 You put your mouth over the edge of the bowl like so. 10:53 And then duck your head down into the bowl of water 10:58 ...just like this. 11:02 And you can hold it there for maybe up to 20 minutes. 11:05 And I tell you, it no sooner gets in the water, or this 11:09 pack no sooner gets on the head, 11:11 and you start to feel that WONDERFUL RELIEF... 11:15 especially when you have that headache 11:17 And pretty soon, the sinuses begin to drain back 11:19 in your throat and you can feel everything 11:21 starting to release. 11:23 Thank you, Dr. Agatha. 11:24 Oh, you're very welcome... 11:25 And I think the treatment for acute sinusitis 11:29 is one of the most welcome treatments that we have 11:32 because the person is aching from the lower part of the face 11:37 right on up to the top of the head. 11:39 And so we are always grateful that we have that. 11:42 I have found, also, that for sinus problems, 11:45 not only a hot foot bath, but also a foot RUB 11:49 can be very helpful. 11:50 Now another form of allergy... not every case of asthma 11:55 is caused by allergy but, for the most part, 11:57 asthma is an allergic reaction. 12:01 And, I'd like us to discuss some things about asthma. 12:06 The person who has asthma will often feel that 12:10 they're helpless against it. 12:12 They simply can't breathe. 12:13 And they get to thinking, "Well, for sure I'm going to 12:18 have a serious problem and I might die with this attack 12:22 of the asthma. " 12:23 But actually, there are a number of things that they can do 12:26 for themselves that can be quite helpful. 12:29 And one thing is simply to make a fist like this... 12:32 and leave a tiny, little hole right here where the 12:36 index finger makes a curl like this... 12:39 and then you just hold that up to the mouth 12:41 and blow and it's... 12:45 ...they blow their breath out through that tiny, little hole. 12:50 Now the pressure between the lips and the diaphragm 12:54 causes the lungs to sort of dilate in this way 12:58 and that dilation makes them able to breathe 13:01 better right away. 13:03 So the person who might be beginning to get a little 13:06 anxiety, or might begin to feel this helplessness and being 13:10 borne down a stream that they cannot stop... 13:12 They will often feel immediately that they are being helped 13:16 and that all is not lost to them. 13:19 Then, of course, there are some variety of other things that 13:23 they can do for asthma. 13:24 And my helpers, Don Miller and Valerie Schreiber 13:27 will talk with you about some of these things now.. Don Miller 13:31 Okay, the first thing, I just want to explain one thing 13:33 about asthma because it's really a bad actor 13:36 We have a thing called "intrinsic asthma" 13:39 and "extrinsic asthma"... sorry about that. 13:43 Intrinsic means... basically we don't know where the thing 13:46 is coming from. 13:47 We have no idea. 13:48 We have nothing that we can say eliminate this and we 13:51 won't have the asthma. 13:52 Now normally, we don't look close enough 13:55 because it usually is something still in our environment 13:58 but the intrinsic basically begins after the age of 30 14:01 is the most serious type of asthma, 14:03 and we just have to keep looking for the smoking gun. 14:07 Extrinsic means basically it's caused by something out there. 14:11 We've already mentioned the dairy allergy... 14:13 which is the #1 allergy that's going to cause your asthma. 14:16 It could be dust, mold, mildew. 14:18 It could be the perfume on your 1st grade teacher. 14:20 It could be something out there, it usually begins 14:23 in childhood... it goes from there, it's seasonal after that 14:27 It's episodic... it's because sometimes you get into the 14:30 situation and sometimes it can be brought on by 14:33 an emotional situation. 14:36 But intrinsic and extrinsic means basically 14:39 sometimes we know where it comes from 14:41 and sometimes we don't. 14:42 But when we DO know where it comes from, 14:44 eliminate those things and we might eliminate the asthma. 14:47 So that's what those two things are, Dr. Thrash. 14:49 That's very good... intrinsic and extrinsic are 14:51 the two commonest forms of asthma. 14:56 In fact, that encompasses almost all cases of asthma. 14:59 Now, there are a large variety of treatments for asthma 15:06 and Valerie Schreiber is going to talk with us about 15:09 another aspect of the treatment of asthma. 15:12 Well, we find at Uchee Pines that hydrotherapy is 15:15 probably one of the very best treatments besides restricting 15:18 the diet that we can do... 15:20 And so we do, on our patients, hot and cold on the chest 15:23 which we do with towels and compresses 15:27 But I'm going to show you one that we use in the evening 15:29 and can be used throughout the day as well... 15:32 and especially with children... 15:33 You know how, when nighttime comes on, 15:36 and one of the things that happens with the bronchi, 15:37 is they begin to constrict and they can have another attack 15:40 So we do a treatment that we do a compress on the chest 15:45 and I want to show moms at home... 15:47 This is a nice way to do it. 15:49 If you have everything already in a little bag, 15:52 like I have a ziplock bag, 15:53 And, if you notice on here, it will say... 15:55 "Heat compress for chest" and then it will even tell you 15:59 what it's for, colds and bronchi and asthma, flu and so forth. 16:02 And then I write at the bottom, it tells you exactly 16:05 what you're supposed to do. 16:06 So that when an emergency comes, you don't have to run 16:09 around the house looking for the book to figure out how to do it 16:12 You have your whole little compress all together 16:16 and you can just pull it out and your directions are 16:19 right there and you'll know exactly what to do. 16:21 So this is what we do. 16:22 And I teach moms how to do this all the time... 16:25 and they tell me how effective this is... 16:27 especially for their children. 16:29 First, you would you'd get one of the children's 16:32 T- shirts or dad's T-shirts if it's an adult, 16:35 and you would take this T- shirt and you'd 16:37 put it down in cold water, wring it out as tight as you can. 16:40 Now you want to work very quickly in this. 16:42 And you would go ahead and put this on your child 16:49 Then you would get yourself a garbage bag 16:53 and you just kind of cut out the neck hole 16:56 and the arm hole... 17:04 Now this compress is put 17:06 in cold water... there we go 17:14 And then, we go ahead and we put a turtleneck on 17:18 because we want to close off ALL air... we want to get that 17:26 over your head... 17:35 and what we do... we have like a turtleneck around here 17:38 and you notice the cuffs are tighter here... 17:40 and then we would take and cuff this inside of her under panties 17:44 and then I suggest, for moms, to go ahead and put another 17:46 sweater over top of this. 17:48 Now what happens is... because this is cold water, 17:51 is the T-shirt is in there, her body temperature will drop 17:54 down a little bit and then it will begin to heat up. 17:57 And it will heat up to maybe 100-101 18:00 And it will stay like that for several hours 18:03 And what that does is, it keeps the bronchi dilated 18:06 instead of restricting which happens many times at night. 18:10 And they get a lot of comfort from this... 18:11 And 9 times out of 10, they won't have an attack 18:14 This is very good for any kind of a bronchial congestion 18:16 type of thing. 18:19 Yes, so you can use it not only for asthma but for any 18:22 kind of bronchitis. 18:23 You can even use it for pneumonia 18:25 and pneumonia is something that may follow some of these 18:31 different types of chest afflictions. 18:34 Now, changing gear just a little bit... 18:37 Let's go to another aspect of home remedies 18:42 and that is in the area of nutrition with 18:47 the antioxidant teas. 18:49 You'll hear a lot today about green tea and black tea 18:53 being very high in antioxidants. 18:56 And it is true that they are. 18:58 But then the very highest source of protein 19:02 that we have in the plant kingdom I suppose is 19:05 probably tobacco leaves. 19:07 But tobacco leaves come with a lot of other things as well. 19:11 So, we want to know what we can do other than 19:15 the antioxidant teas. 19:17 And teas that can be used also for such things as 19:21 weight control... 19:22 We want to know what we can do for these kinds of things. 19:25 So, Valerie Schreiber has a number of things here 19:28 that I think will be self-explanatory when she 19:32 tells you what they are. Valerie. 19:34 Well to talk once again about antioxidants... 19:39 The two best families in the plant kingdom are the 19:43 foods that have high quantities of vitamin E 19:47 and high quantities of vitamin C. 19:49 Those are considered the highest in antioxidants 19:52 which we're hearing a lot about today... free radicals... 19:55 ...they will go and destroy the free radicals. 19:58 And so your vitamin C again are in your fruits 20:00 but they're also in your red peppers and your potatoes 20:03 and there are many vegetables that have it. 20:05 And your vitamin E... 20:06 those would be in your nuts and your seeds and your 20:10 whole grains... 20:11 And so, again, if you're eating a very good diet, rich in 20:15 phytochemicals which means plant-grown foods that 20:20 God has given us, you will have sufficient antioxidants 20:23 in your body and you won't need to run out and take 20:26 supplements... 20:27 Because your body will work much better with the food. 20:31 Dr. Agatha, would you want me to talk about weight... 20:33 Yes, why don't we go ahead and talk about weight. 20:36 Weight control and what you have that might be helpful 20:39 for people who are trying to win the battle with the bulge. 20:43 Well, what we have here also, with the teas... 20:47 and there are many flavorable teas out here... 20:51 We have one that's here called "Sunburst C" 20:53 ...that happens to be one of the teas that is high in 20:56 antioxidants but it's also very flavorable! 21:00 And here's a nice one that's a peppermint tea. 21:07 This is one of my favorites, "Wildberry Zinger. " 21:10 And these teas are quite delicious... 21:13 And what you can put in the teas is... you can go ahead 21:16 and add a little bit of Stevia as a sweetener. 21:18 Now this is not going to cure your weight problem, 21:22 but this is sort of like a support system for you when 21:25 you begin. 21:26 And the thing that will support you more after you get 21:30 going in your diet program, or weight loss program, 21:32 will be as those pounds come off. 21:34 That will kind of support you and really spur you on. 21:37 But in the beginning, when you've been used to 21:39 eating all day long and drinking sodas and those 21:42 types of things, we like you to go to some flavorful herb teas 21:47 and let me just show you this... 21:49 there are some dieter teas out there as well 21:52 because there are some herbs that play a role in helping to 21:56 possibly suppress your appetite and do various things to help 22:02 you with your weight loss and digestion... 22:04 and that type of a thing. 22:06 So, there are a number of those out there but 22:09 one other thing that I wanted to suggest to you 22:12 that are trying to lose weight, 22:14 is we have some nice imitation coffee, I guess you could say. 22:20 There's Pero and Roma and Cafix. 22:23 There's a number of them out there. 22:24 And, a cup is only 5 calories. 22:27 So when you're try to stop the evening meal 22:30 and that's what we highly suggest... for those that are 22:33 trying to lose weight, is to go on the 2-meal-a-day program... 22:36 nothing in-between... drink lots of water 22:42 About 10 or 15 minutes before your meal, drink a glass of 22:45 cold water that will help suppress you overeating 22:48 And then in the evening, in place of a meal... 22:51 now this is just to help you get over the hump, 22:53 ...is to make yourself a nice cup of Pero or Cafix 22:56 And you will find that will soothe this "wanting to eat" 23:00 in the evening. 23:02 And then eventually, you'll be able to drop that off 23:05 as you're losing weight and you'll be so pleased with 23:07 the weight coming off of you, 23:09 you won't even want to do some of these things anymore. 23:13 These are just crutches, they are not cures. 23:15 But, as we know about many things that are on the 23:21 healing edge of things... 23:23 that if we can get just a little help... 23:26 then the body will do its own thing 23:29 and we can get over that major affliction. 23:33 Another problem that people often have is 23:36 nausea and vomiting. 23:38 Now nausea and vomiting can usually be handled in the home 23:41 except in VERY small infants under the age of 23:44 6 months perhaps when a protracted case of nausea 23:48 and vomiting and especially if it also has diarrhea. 23:52 This may require professional help, 23:54 but the average case of just a little food poisoning 23:57 or a little bit of nausea in grandmother 24:01 who may have eaten something that didn't agree with her, 24:04 some of these things can be rather nicely handled 24:07 by just very simple things that we can do in the home. 24:11 Now, if a child has a problem with nausea and vomiting, 24:19 we can use a paste made of carob, 24:24 or we can use slurry made of charcoal. 24:28 And, so I've asked Valerie if she will show you a slurry 24:31 made of charcoal and just how you would make it up for a child 24:36 Well... here is our charcoal... 24:40 I notice you're taking that top off very carefully. 24:42 VERY carefully because charcoal is like powder... 24:47 It will FLY everywhere. 24:49 So you want to be very, very careful with charcoal. 24:52 You don't move swiftly at all with it... 24:55 You move very carefully and slow with it. 25:02 Now I tell you, charcoal is the most wonderful thing... 25:04 Don't go anywhere in the world without it. 25:06 Have it with you everywhere you go. 25:09 Especially if you go below the border... FOR SURE! 25:13 Or if you go overseas... anywhere. 25:15 Now charcoal does come in many forms... 25:18 You can get it in capsule and tablet form. 25:21 However though, I caution you in the tablet form, 25:23 look on the bottle... read... many times now, 25:26 they're starting to put sugar in it. 25:28 So, I would go to the capsule for traveling especially... 25:31 If you're flying or driving in the car, 25:32 you certainly don't want to open one of these up and mix it, 25:34 unless you stop the car and get out. 25:36 But in the airplane, you can't quite do that. 25:38 But this is a nice way to mix it... 25:40 and you would just get yourself a teaspoon and you could 25:44 heap it up about like this for a child, 25:46 I guess, just about like this and pour it in one of these 25:50 little jelly jars... 25:51 And you notice, I'm being REAL careful because this 25:54 stuff will fly like crazy. 25:55 So you have one of these jars that has one of those... 25:59 like canning lids and when you put it on there, 26:02 you just tighten it real good and then you can begin 26:04 to shake it like this. 26:06 This is an easy way to do it moms... for your children. 26:10 And, let me tell you a nice way to get children to drink this... 26:16 you know, because many times the children will look at this 26:18 and they will go "Yuck, I have to drink this. " 26:20 So I tell moms to put it in grape juice... 26:24 Give the children a straw and 9 times out of 10, 26:27 they won't even know that they've had charcoal. 26:29 And they'll just drink it on down because it will 26:31 taste like grape juice to them, 26:32 and very well hidden in grape juice for children. 26:34 So, now if it's babies and you want to give your baby 26:38 charcoal for whatever reason... 26:40 and I know we've done this for our jaundiced babies. 26:42 You can let this charcoal settle right down to the bottom 26:46 and then you can see through it, but it will still 26:49 be kind of smoky color. 26:51 And then, if you want, you can still strain it through 26:54 a paper towel or some gauze and put it in a bottle for the baby. 26:57 So, I encourage you, out there, moms... 27:00 Don't do anywhere without your charcoal. 27:02 Get yourself charcoal. 27:04 Very good, and I like charcoal also because when you have 27:09 made it, it's very good for a sore throat... 27:12 People who have a headache will often have a headache because 27:15 they have some kind of toxicity in the body 27:18 and just drinking down a charcoal slurry 27:22 will be very helpful. 27:23 And, as Valerie said... you can use both the mixed up 27:29 black part but you can let it settle and people who have 27:33 very sensitive stomachs, will not be able to take that 27:36 that's black, so they can just let it settle, 27:38 and take the fluid that's on the top and drink that down 27:43 and often that will give them a lot of benefit 27:45 just from that kind of thing. 27:48 So, we hope these very simple things will become 27:50 second nature to you 27:51 in your own home. |
