An email asks, “Do you know of any herbs that cure acne and other things?”
An email asks, “Do you know of any herbs that cure acne and other things?”
To cure acne I use a blend of Evening Primrose Oil, Raspberry Leaf, Nettle, Dandelion, Lemon Grass. Here is the recipe for Acne help. Bring to a simmer in non-metallic pan 2 quarts water, 3 tablespoons Witch hazel bark, 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon, 1 tablespoon ground cloves; let simmer for 5 minutes. Then add 1/2 cup chopped fresh thyme, 1 cup fresh chopped peppermint leaves, and 1/2 cup fresh chopped marjoram. Simmer 5 more minutes, set aside until cold. Mix 1/2 cup of the simmered mixture with 2 teaspoons cider vinegar, 2 ounces grain alcohol (vodka is best), 4 drops lemon oil, and enough water to make one pint. Apply with cotton to acne prone areas after washing. A good aloe moisturizer afterwards is recommended.
For acne that hasn't seemed to respond to anything use 2-3 tsp. dried basil leaves to 1 cup boiling water. Steep 2 hours. Cool then apply with cotton ball.

I had an email that asks “Do you know of any herbs that cure arthritis?”
It has been said that arthritis is helped greatly by a blend of Yucca, Comfrey, Alfalfa, Yarrow, Cayenne, Lobelia, Burdock, Chaparral, Black Cohosh, Cat's Claw and Lemon Grass. Plus it is supposed to be good for Bursitis, Rheumatism and Gout and is a Blood Cleanser.
These and other herbs are not advocated by me, nor are they approved by the FDA. When you have anything important wrong with you I recommend you see your doctor.
