INTRODUCING:TARAXACUM OFFICINALE" or the "OFFICIAL REMEDY FOR DISORDERS".

HERE , they learned about its invasive properties as a weed  from the pest terminator  .The Europeans learned about its MEDICINAL properties  from The Arabs.The Arabs learned about them  from the Indians.The Indians learned about it from the Chinese .The Chineses...and the STORY keeps on rolling!

I speak no Chinese , and I learned about it from my mother who is not chinese either! 

She used to harvest it wild from the wilderness  .As a little boy , I remeber wandering with mother Sarah pulling  DANDELION  _DENTE DE LIONE_or the "TOOTH OF THE LION". It grew close to the trunk of the olive trees during the spring times.No lion teeth were pulled or found during the gathering process!

Now I  know it is called so due to the shape of the dandelion green leaf that has a look alike sharp lion teeth.It is beleived to act as a tooth /scavenger on the bad bugs in our body and chew them up.

This weed is now well respected all over the world for its value in preventing liver , kidney and gallbladder disorders.It is to be considered like food though just like some of us consider it as a weed and they have the right to say so if they beleive so!.

DO NOT SMOKE IT.DO NOT USE IT TO TREAT ANY DISEASE!

JUST EAT IT LIKE FOOD , use it in salads or soup or juice it with other vegetables!Careful though it is bitter and it might interfer with your medications , so check with your doctor first !

Disclaimer:This DANDELION is not to be used as medicine to treat or cure any disease.Follow directions of  your professional health practitioner ONLY in any regards to  treat disease  .

This literature is to be taken as an educational material based on stories from Indian Ayuervidics,Chinese  and European herbalists like Nicholas Culppeper(England),Russian chemist Gerasimova, the Swiss Vogel, and Eastern European Racz and Marei(Hobbs 1985).

Studies and  research  by the above mentioned Gerazimova and Vogel found out that dandelion reduces inflammation of the liver and is rich in vitamins A,C,D and the B chain plus a good load of minerals and trace minerals.

Here is a list of the alleged benefits of Dandelion:

1-It treats liver,gallbladder and kidney disorders.It stimulates the secretion of the bile.

2-It is condidered as a tonic,blood purifier,system detoxifier,cleanser.

3-It dissolves kidney stones and improves gastro intestinal health through acting on correcting and releiving constipation or diahrea.

4-It assists in weight reduction and treats skin disorders like acne.

5-It helps in lowering high blood pressure , serum cholesterol and acts as prevention for  diabetes.

I personally beleive in following a healthy life style including a diet rich in LOCALLY GROWN ORGANIC GREENS , like dandelion for example.I grow most of what I eat.You can try and see for yourself how  DANDELION GREENS can BE helpful in getting you internally CLEAN.Check it out in your backyard or from a local organic farmer near you.

So now you know.when are you going to apply what you know?

Timing is the key.When?

Like when is the best time to detoxify the body for example? Did you know that the body works by RYTHEMS.They are called the Circadian Rythems or the Biological Clock..TICK...tick ..tick

Time to go to bed time to wake up..do you have any idea how your immune sustem works...It works when you go to sleep.

You want to cleanse and detoxyfy your body just by eating dandelion.WRONG!You got to have ample rest and sleep.Your body has a program to get rid of toxins through the skin(sweating),the lymphatic system(lympho-drainage),the kidneys (filtration)-liver / gallbladder(bile excretion),the colon(bowel movement).

So here is the good news why farmers live longer than anyone else: They wake up early and go to bed early.The key is "Sleeping time"!

The liver is called so because it is the one that determines the LIFE SPAN!

It does so by keeping the body clean from the inside free of toxins.It has a working schedule.

The human body  detox process  according to TCM ( Chinese Traditional Medicine) and Indian Ayuerveda teachings:

11PM-1 AM Liver time detoxification process takes place.

1 AM-3 AM Gallbladder detoxification process takes place.

3 AM- 5 AM Lungs detoxification process takes place.

5 AM-7 AM Colon detoxification process takes place.

Farmers wake up and start work early just like the  birds so they empty their bowls first  upon arising from bed.They get mucho oxygen intake as the earth releases more oxygen into the  air in early hours of the day.

LIFE SPAN?It is all about LIFE STYLE and the STATE OF THE LIVER!

Diet is one aspect.Sleep is another...Sleep tight..tonight!!
