FOCUS ON: TART CHERRIES EXTRACT

Cherries contain among other things something called MELATONIN. This is a substance normally made by a gland deep in the back of the brain known as the pineal gland. The gland contains cells similar to the cells of the human eye. The pineal gland also contains crystals. Medical textbooks often refer to these crystals as "brain dust." It is believed by other fields of study that both of these structures are activated in some way by light.
On a physical level, adequate Melatonin has long been recognized as necessary for a good night's sleep. Even more important, Melatonin is believed to be responsible for the proper functioning of our biological clocks. These are the living clocks in the brain that time the process of hormone production in our body, as well as other functions. It is believed that the presence of Melatonin plays a large role in the aging process of the human body.
But we seem to run out of Melatonin and therefore cannot continue to produce hormones.
In addition to a rich supply of Melatonin, Tart Cherries contain compounds called ANTHOCYANINS. Natural food researchers have shown these anthocyanins to work ten times better than aspirin to reduce swelling and discomfort. These same anthocyanins are also shown to be more effective than Vitamin C and Vitamin E in preventing plaque "junk" from clogging up your arteries and heart. Want some more good news? Tart Cherries have also been shown to be extremely effective in shrinking tumors! Tart Cherries also taste pretty good.
DOSAGE: As a natural source of MELATONIN for the conditions listed above take 40 drops to one teaspoon of the liquid extract Tart Cherries three times per day, depending on the severity of the condition that needs correcting. To sleep better, be patient, it may take up to one month before you notice results. Repairing the sleep machinery in the body may take that long before it can be avtivated.

HOW TO FIX KNEE JOINTS

Pure Herbs, Ltd. is one of three medicinal grade supplement companies I deal with. They buy only the highest quality raw materials in the world, second only to Nature's Sunshine Products.
Their current newsletter says this about "How to fix knee joints":
1. If possible: Get the knee(s) into position where there is the least amount of discomfort.
2. Take twice daily, one teaspoon of HORSETAIL. Horsetail is loaded with MSM (MethylSulfonylMethane). This is vital for healthy elastic joints. Horsetail is a rich source of the mineral Silicon which builds long-lasting, resilient, elastic connective tissues.
Take twice daily 80 drops of A.C.S. (All Cells Salts "minerals"). This all natural multi-mineral herbal formula contains an easily absorbed supply of the minerals calcium and magnesium. Both calcium and magnesium are accumulating pain relievers. Or take four tablets of Calcium-Magnesium twice per day. Or take 6-12 capsules of ALFALFA per day.
3. Apply the following EXTERNALLY to the knees three times per day:

  • Apply VANE EASE or VITAMIN E from capsules. These will oxygenate and rebuild blood vessels in the area in need of repair.
  • Apply FIVE OILS or OIL OF CAJEPUT or WINTERGREEN OIL for swift penetrating, decongesting pain relief.
  • Apply ARNICA to erase the effects of injury to the area and for pain relief. Also helps to erase past accumulated "stored trauma" (continuing electrical disturbances to the nerves). Make sure to be diligent and continue ARNICA each day until all pain is eventually discharged. "Stored trauma" prevents an area from healing properly.
  • Apply HERBAL ADJUSTMENT. This will immediately restore circulation to the area in need of repair.

4. DISCONTINUE all irritating acid liquids such as: ORANGE JUICE, GRAPEFRUIT JUICE and SODA POP (this includes diet drinks). Some people may also have to discontinue TOMATO JUICE or SALSA.

See if you don't feel better in a short amount of time.

Note: Fresh LEMON JUICE is ok. It does not turn acid in the system.

PRECAUTION: When using the liquids externally as described in this write-up, take care not to get the liquids in the eyes or on the private areas, otherwise the sensations of great heat can occur. In case of accident, flush with water, remain calm and peace will return.
