Hi Sue,

Despite the great info Kevin puts in his books, he is still out to make a buck...and hey...I guess that is ok. All the remedies that he recommends can be found in books and websites...that is where he gets a lot of his info.

 

You can buy herb books and they will tell you what to take for a specific ailment or part of the body.

As far as treating your mother I think it is best to leave her where she is at or if you want to go to alternative with her take her to a naturalpath, herbalist, or homeopath they will know what would be best for her situation. But if you do that then make sure you check around and see if you can find any info on the person first to see if they have a good track record, just as you would with a Dr. There are good and bad in all places of the work force.

 

Juicing is a great thing to do for any ailment...that is what are bodies are anyway is big juicing machines. They suck the vitamins and nutrients out of whatever we put in and discards the rest. But with all the processed foods we eat, the contaminated water that we drink and the polluted air we breath it is getting harder and harder for our bodies to eliminate the toxins. By juicing ...that helps the body to produce more of the good cells we need to fight off all of the garbage.

 

Here are some juices that are good for the liver:

Cranberry, pinapple, parsley, wheatgrass, beets, sprouts, cabbage, kale, garlic, and onion. With the parsley, wheatgrass, sprouts, kale, onion and garlic you always want to mix them with something else...never just by themselves.

 

Here is a good liver juice...1/2 beet, 3-4 apples and then put in your greens.

 

The herbs...there are tons of herbs for the liver. They are: bitterroot, black cohosh, bloodroot, buckbean, fennel, parsley, plantain, wood betony, fringe tree, celandine, aloes, chicory, holy thistle, angelica, beech, bittersweet, butternut bark, carrot, cascara sagrada, celery, cleavers, dandelion, elder, golden seal, lobelia, magnolia, mandrake, milkweed, milk thistle, motherwort, poplar, prickly ash, rhubarb, sage, self-heal, wahoo, white oak bark, wild yam, wormwood, balm, blue flag, wild Oregon grape, red root, oke root, gentian root, red sage, hops, uva ursi.

 

Unless you have a book it is not easy to know what to do with them...I did some searching to see if they had herbal remedies out there all mixed up for you already you can look at this Sue and see what you think. I know nothing about this company or their products so research it first if you decide to try it.

 

 

Good Luck...have to scoot back to work...K
