Long before
the prescription drugs available for all our ills they used to use herbs for
healing. They also used to die at an
early age so you need to look at that before you throw out all your meds.
I came across this chart that I
found very interesting concerning using different herbs for health
problems.
I have a live rosemary plant in my
kitchen in a five gallon container that I love.
I use rosemary in my cooking and enjoy having fresh rosemary whenever I
need it. This chart says it is a good
anti-oxidant, I have always heard rosemary is good for your memory. Maybe if you clean out your body you brain
will be better? Just an idea of my own…
Cayenne is said to stop a heart
attack, I have heard it is good for your respiratory so I have always taken it
for my veins. Years ago I was boating on
Lake Powell on a first date with my husband and sliced the top of my hand open,
it was bleeding profusely. My husband (boyfriend
then) had some cayenne pepper and poured it on my wound instantly stopping the
bleeding. The cut was bad enough that it
should have had stitches, but being on the lake in the middle of nowhere this
worked wonderfully. Since then I have
used cayenne pepper on many occasions to stop the bleeding, I think it should
be in everyone’s first aid kit.
Cinnamon is supposed to
help lower blood pressure. I keep a jar of cinnamon on my kitchen table and sprinkle it on my honey toast in the morning
for cinnamon toast. Yeast Infection - In some studies, cinnamon has shown an
amazing ability to stop medication-resistant yeast infections.
Cancer Prevention - In a study published by researchers at the U.S. Department of Agriculture in Maryland, cinnamon reduced the proliferation of leukemia and lymphoma cancer cells.

Now keep in mind I am not a medical professional so this is
only my opinion, you should check with your doctor to see if some of these
things work for you.
You might want to study some of these herbs; I have numerous
books I have used as reference over the years.
Just be careful if you are taking medication that you check to make sure
that herbs don’t interfere with your medication and cause other problems. I myself am a true believer that you can be
healthier with the herbs Heavenly Father gave us.
