I bought a big jar of celery seed from a discount store and began putting it in almost every thing I ate. Within two days.....the pain was much less and the inflammation was almost gone!! Now....the pain is completely manageable when before.....I was totally consumed with pain daily. Praise God for His provision....

Also, I was having trouble with water retention and began using pure cranberry juice as a diaretic. I drink a cup once or twice a day. It's all but completely gone now!

Tyler....would you be willing to share the medicinal plants you know with us here?? I would really appreciate it. I don't trust the medicines the multi-billion dollar drug companies come up with anymore. The lists of side effects are as long as your arm and I have always felt that chemicals of any kind are soooo dangerous and what is making people sick. I don't even use commercial toothpaste anymore. The list of chemicals is unbelievable on everything from shampoo to soap.
Anyway....I would love to explore the more natural way of curing common ailments....

Judy,

Having been a nurse for 45 yrs, I have seen all the side effects from all the medications that doctors perscribe and they re not nice. I also saw when one medication gave side effects then they perscribe another one to counteract the first one.and so on and on it goes. I have seen poor little seniors come in with pages of medication . No wonder they are sick .... Just my observation so don't quote me.

I am not against doctors of course but I think each time one goes all they seem to do is give pills. Of course also they get perks from the pharmachedical companies as well.

Anyways I believe that the natural way is the better way and if we can find alternatives that are natural then go for it . This is of course something that doctors would not recommend. We also have to have good information about what we are taking so check everything out first.

Of course our best Doctor is Doctor Jesus.
