Can be used in salve or homeopathic cream / gel.

Tincture, topically only on unbroken skin.

Benefits:

Great for bruises, sprains, strains, sore muscles, before and after strenuous workout, before and after birthing.

on topically on unbroken skin. Arnica is POSSIBLY SAFE when taken by mouth in the amounts commonly found in food or

when applied to unbroken skin short-term. The Canadian government, however, is concerned enough about the safety of

arnica to prohibit its use as a food ingredient.

Amounts that are larger than the amount found in food are LIKELY UNSAFE when taken by mouth. In fact, arnica is

considered poisonous and has caused death. When taken by mouth it can also cause irritation of the mouth and throat,

stomach pain, vomiting, diarrhea, skin rashes, shortness of breath, a fast heartbeat, an increase in blood pressure, heart

damage, organ failure, increased bleeding, coma, and death.

Lobelia – a relaxing yet stimulating herb that can “think”

by Ingri Cassel

Lobelia is considered to be one of the most important herbs to have in one’s medicine chest in times of crisis.

Although lobelia has been denigrated by allopathic medicine as dangerous, even causing death, countless well-

known herbalists such as Dr. John R. Christopher considered it to be indispensable in their herbal repertoire.

This article was written to dispel the myth of the danger of using lobelia internally while restoring this great herb

to its proper role as a lifesaver when other remedies are likely to fail.

Lobelia inflata is also known as Indian tobacco, puke weed and asthma weed. It grows throughout the eastern

U.S. as far west as Nebraska and Arkansas and has also been found in British Columbia. This herb is named after

Mattias del Lobel, a French botanist in the 1500s. He moved to London where he was a physician who often

employed lobelia in his practice. Lobelia grows 12 inches to two feet high with sparsely leaved stems and is an

annual or sometimes biennial plant. The delicate flowers stem from a central stalk and are pale blue to violet in

color, making lobelia a popular flowering garden plant. The herb is often harvested in July when it flowers and in

October and November for its seeds, which have stronger properties than the leaves and stem. Lobelia’s

medicinal qualities are anti-asthmatic, anti-spasmodic, expectorant, emetic (induces vomiting), nervine,

diaphoretic (induces perspiration), and diuretic.

Lobelia is both a relaxant and a stimulant – in small doses it stimulates, especially when combined with other

herbs, increasing their effectiveness, and in larger doses it relaxes musculature and constricted blood vessels.

The whole herb contains lobeline and isolobelanine. Lobeline is a powerful respiratory stimulant and

isolobelanine is an emetic and respiratory relaxant, stimulating catarrhal secretion and expectoration while

relaxing the muscles of the respiratory system. Lobelia has a general depressant action on the central and

autonomic nervous systems. It’s most common use is in the treatment of asthma and bronchitis. The overall

action is a truly holistic combination of stimulation and relaxation.

Samuel Thomson

Lobelia inflata was an extremely popular remedy among 19th century herbalists. Samuel Thomson, the founder

of the Thomsonian System of Natural Medicine, popularized its use in the U.S. when allopathic doctors were

employing radium, mercury, strychnine and other poisons in their practices. In 1805, Thomson had a thriving

practice and was often called to neighboring states to treat difficult cases. His combative nature lead him into

heated arguments with the standard allopathic doctors of his day who denounced his treatment methods. In

1809, Dr. French brought up charges of murder against Thomson, accusing him of the willful murder of a young

man with lobelia, a deadly “poison”, who had died while under his care. Thomson was thrown into prison in

Newburyport, Mass. on Nov. 10, 1809 where he stayed for a month in filth and without any heat. He would have

remained there for a year if it weren’t for a few friends who had benefited from his work and managed to secure

37

a hearing before Judge Parsons in a special session on Dec. 10, 1809. The court ended up acquitting Thomson

since it was obvious the charges were trumped-up. Thomson proved he had used marsh rosemary root on the

patient and not lobelia as the prosecution had assumed. Thomson continued to embitter so many medical men

against him that in 1811, while he was passing the office door of a doctor in Maine, the physician tried to kill him

with a scythe.

The war between herbalists and allopathic doctors continues to the present day but is less noticeable due to the

monopoly allopathic medicine now has with schools, hospitals, the media and our court system.

Lobelia – a poison?

Although most herbal books and online websites will warn potential users that lobelia can be poisonous, years

of experience by countless herbalists have proven that far from being a poison it is actually an antidote to

poison. Priddy Meeks was a Thomsonian physician in Utah in the 1800s that used lobelia extensively in treating

victims of poisoning from drugs prescribed by orthodox doctors.

The following is excerpted from Priddy Meeks’ journal:

“While living at Parowan [Utah], Simeon Houd got badly poisoned with strychnine so that he had his thumb

amputated, but that did not seem to stop the poison from ascending up his arm and going down into his vitals,

which would prove fatal. He.... said to me, ‘Brother Meeks, if you cannot save me, I am gone, for if the poison

gets into my vitals, it will kill me. It is now up to my shoulder.’ Never knowing Lobelia to fail in a case of poison,

neither indeed in any other case, in full assurance of faith, I went to work and gave him several thorough

courses of Thomsonian medicine [one course = 3 doses of lobelia tincture taken internally 10 min. apart while

drinking herbal tea, usually peppermint] and in three or four days he was so much better that we all believed

that nothing more was needed, as the poison was checked. He felt about well. I thought the job was completed

and went home.”

Meeks then related how an angel told him to keep giving Houd the medicine since he wasn’t completely cured.

Meeks did so while noting that the Thomsonian medicine must be good since even Heaven approved it. He had

several other similar stories in his journal such as the case of Sister Daniel Tyler who had been poisoned by

rubbing red precipitated mercury on her skin for the itch without realizing the danger. Meeks administered

several courses of lobelia tincture, which soon made her well.

Herbalists of the day noted that Thomsonian medicines would seldom, if ever, disappoint you in performing a

cure. Lobelia will remove obstructions wherever found in the body and restore a healthy action wherever

needed. It acts like “intelligence”, always in harmony with the living intention of the body, which is to remove

any kind of obstruction to healing.

Lobelia – the thinking herb

Dr. John R. Christopher called lobelia the “thinking” herb and used lobelia in most of his herbal formulas. His

experience taught him that when lobelia was added to a formula, it took the herbs to the parts of the body

needing the remedy and was able to determine if the poisons needing to be purged would be eliminated

through the bowels or through the skin (if the body was too weak to handle the circulation of the poison

through the bloodstream and into the digestive tract and bowels.)

Dr. Christopher often related the story of two small boys who were both suffering from an enlarged gland on the

side of their neck behind the ear. His formula for swollen and malfunctioning glands is three parts mullein and

38

one part lobelia to be used as a tea, in capsules and/or as a fomentation. A nurse called Dr. Christopher in

desperation to ask his advice on the first boy with the swollen gland. The nurse followed his advice to use the

mullein/lobelia fomentation on the swollen gland. She then asked, “Which way is the toxic accumulation going

to come out of the body? Will it come out directly through the skin like a bursting boil or will it be routed

through the bloodstream and be taken out through the bowel?” Dr. Christopher replied that he did not know;

that it would be the lobelia that would make the “decision”. The second boy had the same sort of swelling

behind his ear so his mother called the good doctor for advice. He gave her exactly the same advice and she,

too, applied the same fomentation.

In the first case, the poison gathered up and burst, draining out straight through the neck. In the second case,

the poison was absorbed by the body and then eliminated through the bowel.

Tetanus/Lockjaw

Dr. Christopher usually used lobelia in the form of a tincture he made by using one ounce of the herb or seed to

one pint of raw apple cider vinegar. Dr. Christopher was once called out on a case where an old man had a

terrible case of lockjaw. Christopher poured a small amount of the tincture into his mouth through his clenched

teeth and within minutes the man opened his jaw and was able to thank the Lord for relief. The man described

how he had stepped on a rusty spike when he was working out on his farm. It had penetrated through his boot

and then blood poisoning occurred. Dr. Christopher saw that lobelia worked on the effect so he continued

working on the cause with a plantain ointment to draw out the poison as well as using other herbs to cleanse

the bowels and bloodstream of the poison.

Severe asthma case

One of Dr. Christopher’s most famous “lobelia” cases involved an elderly man who had suffered from asthma for

26 years. For 20 years he had not been able to work. His two sons had built a special chair for him to sit and

sleep in due to his asthma, fearing that he would die if he were to lie down. A doctor had been coming to their

home in Evanston, Wyoming at least once a week either to give him a drug orally, a shot, or administer oxygen

in order to keep him alive. One early morning, the doctor couldn’t be reached so the two sons contacted Dr.

Christopher out of desperation. They brought their father to him at 2:00 AM and Dr. Christopher asked the old

man to sip on a cup of elderberry leaf tea while they told his story, which involved mortgaging their home in

order to pay for continued care under their present doctor. After 10 minutes, a teaspoon of tincture of lobelia

was administered orally. After 10 min. had passed, he gave the man a second teaspoonful of lobelia tincture. He

waited another 10 min. before he gave him the third dose of lobelia. The four men sat around and chatted while

Christopher made sure there were pans and buckets around. All of a sudden the old man started to cough and

heave. This went on until 5:00 in the morning. The old man had brought up everything he had eaten for days

plus nearly a cup of yellowish green phlegm and pus from his lungs. In 40 years of practice, Dr. Christopher

commented that he had never had to administer more than three teaspoonfuls of lobelia tincture to a patient.

The reason for this is because each time he was called the patient was in a crisis, at the climax of the disease,

which is also the right time for clearing the body of the disease.

When the man went home, he went to bed and slept horizontally for the first time in many years. He ended up

sleeping a total of 30 hours straight. When he woke up, he took a deep breath of air without choking or

coughing and announced that he was healed. He never experienced another asthma attack and went to work as

a gardener, never missing a day’s work.

39

Lobelia in the 21st century Most herbalists would agree that lobelia is a valuable herb to have on hand while

understanding its specific applications. One family with six children who live in the North Idaho Panhandle noted

how valuable lobelia was when whooping cough affected all the children in the household. The youngest were

the most affected with spasmodic coughing that kept the rest of the family up at night. Homeopathy including

Scheussler biochemic cell salts were not having a major impact. When they made a tea out of the lobelia herb,

administering the tea to even the youngest children, the spasmodic coughing miraculously subsided and they

recovered rapidly.

Dr. Edward Shook recommends 2 ounces of marshmallow root, 2 ounces of garden thyme, and half an ounce of

lobelia to a quart of distilled water that is simmered down to a pint of liquid in a double boiler to make a strong

decoction for whooping cough.

Lobelia inflata is specifically used in natural “quit smoking” patches and herbal formulas since it helps to clear

the lungs of nicotine while reducing the craving for cigarettes.

Last but not least, lobelia is an excellent remedy for both preventing and treating infectious diseases. It has been

used successfully in scarlet fever, measles, mumps and even mononucleosis. Many stories have been written

attesting to lobelia’s ability to both prevent one from catching contagious diseases as well as treat them once

infected. Lobelia’s ability to relax the body while purging it of unwanted toxins makes this a most valuable herb

to have on hand in our increasingly toxic world.

According to herbalist Rosemary Gladstar, nettle is also “one of the highest sources of digestible iron in

plant form” (Gladstar, 1993, p. 29). Nettle is a deeply nourishing herb, helping to revitalize the entire

body and increase overall health. This rich wealth of nutrients is helpful where there is muscle

cramping from low vitamin and mineral intake, as well as assisting in nourishing the body after illness

or prolonged stress (Tilgner, 1999; Weed, 1989).

Nettles can help out as an herbal alternative supporting healthful function of the kidneys, liver,

digestive tract, and overall metabolism while strengthening the constitution.

As a tonic for the urinary tract and adrenals, nettle helps to soothe all sorts of woes such as chronic

urinary tract infections, water retention, and stress (Weed, 1989). Herbalists use it to help flush acid

wastes out of the body, easing “gout, eczema, skin rashes, and gravel in kidneys” (Wood, 1997, p. 483).

Susun Weed also explains that regular use of nettle assists in “nourishing the mucus membranes of the

digestive tract” easing constipation and diarrhea

Skullcap info:

Owner of Strictly Medicinal Seeds: I'm pretty

excited about Baical Skullcap (Scutellaria

baicalensis) for treatment of pandemic diseases

such as avian flu. My experience is that the root of

this plant, which has been used in Chinese

medicine for a very long time as the herb Huang-

qin, is extremely effective for treating contagious

flu-like maladies. There is really no better anti-

infection agent in herbalism, to my

knowledge. The herb is more effective if grown in

poor, sandy soil. Added advantages of Huang-qin

are 1) lack of side-effects, 2) quick to germinate

and easily grown throughout the temperate US 4) pretty 5) and can be harvested in the fall of first or (better)

second year 6) no side effects. Here's a picture of the freshly harvested root--extremely potent as you can

probably tell.

Text from a small article written by Richo that appeared in the AHA Quarterly:

The Chinese herb Baical Skullcap, known in Chinese as Huang-qin (Scutellaria

baicalensis) has a history of medicinal usage dating back over 2,000 years.

The bright yellow roots of this pretty perennial herb are used traditionally

to abate diarrhea and dysentery and to enhance liver function in the

treatment of hepatitis. They are also an active antibacterial treatment for

Staph (Staphylococcus aureus) infection, which is a major cause of secondary

infections in hospitals in the US. In Traditional Chinese Medicine,

practitioners use Huang-qin as frequently as Westerners use Goldenseal. Many

Westerners have yet to appreciate Huang-qin to the extent that it deserves.

An added bonus is that the herb is well suited to cultivation in the western

states, thriving in gardens all the way from Washington down to Southern

California. Relatively easy to start from seed in the spring, the plants

prefer a full sun position and deep, dry, well-drained soils. The flowers

appear for the first time in the fall of the first year, and after that the

plant flowers copiously every summer, producing heady blue or purple blooms

for as long as three months before the blossoms give way to the

characteristically hooded seed capsules. Baical skullcap is a low-lying

bedding plant, excellent for high-use areas such as next to pathways. After

the third year of growth, the roots may be dug and dried for medicinal use.

No fancy processing is necessary. The roots can be sliced into sections

while fresh and dried in the shade, then made into tincture or tea. Good

quality roots are bright yellow, not green or black. Any herb that looks

that good in the garden and treats the formidable adversaries hepatitis and

staph deserves plenty of attention!

Bentonite Clay

Bentonite clay can be used in the following ways:

Topically for burns

Topically for large wounds

Topically for bites / stings

Topically for infections

Topically for bruises

Internally for illnesses

Internally for food poisoning

Radiation Exposure

As a toothpaste to potentially reverse and prevent cavities

Internally for removal of toxins (pesticides, chemicals, heavy metals, etc)

In a bath for extra toxin removal and overall healing

In a foot bath for toxin removal and overall healing

Important!

Cover burns / wounds with saran wrap so clay doesn’t dry out and cause further harm to the

injured area.

Cover infections with a breathable fabric so it dries out some which helps to draw out the

infection.

Clay Instructions:

Liquid Clay (for internal toxins, food poisoning, flu, heavy metals, boost immune system, radiation exposure, etc)

¼ cup clay in one gallon of water. Stir and let sit for 20 minutes. Stir again. Let sit for another 20

minutes. Drink top water – mix in some of clay particles – not necessary to drink much of the actual clay

particles.

Clay gel (for burns, bites, stings, wounds, etc)

1 part clay to 2 parts water (may need to add a little more water into it) Place onto wound. Leave on for

hours / overnight. Replace with new clay again. Allow to air out for a few hours if necessary.

Activated Charcoal

Can be used for:

Radiation Exposure

Food Poisoning

Gas / Bloated

Heavy Metal Detox

Skin Irritations

Allergic Reaction

Bites / Stings

Snake Bites

Sore Throats

Acid Reflux

Bladder Infection

Internal Infection

For Radiation Exposure:

Studies show that charcoal possesses the unique ability to neutralize radiation, and that 10 grams of

charcoal can neutralize up to 7 grams of toxic material. Take up to several charcoal capsules per hour

when radiation is in the atmosphere – drinking with plenty water. Or take up to 1-2 T. of activated

charcoal mixed in large glass of water every 1-3 hours. Decrease this amount by half for children.

For snake bites:

(BEST option) Immediately, apply a very large charcoal compress covering almost an entire extremity,

centering over the bite, using large quantities of activated charcoal, wet with water and kept moist with

plastic wrap. A new compress should be placed over the immediate vicinity of the snake bite every 10-

15 minutes.

Activated Charcoal should also be taken by mouth, in the quantity of approx. 2 Tbsp. every 2 hours, for 3

doses, and 1 tsp. every hour for 24 hours. Each dose should be followed by 2 glasses of water. (17)

Or take up to 1-2 T. of activated charcoal mixed in large glass of water every 2-3 hours. Decrease this

amount by half for children. Take for up to 2 weeks.

Using Activated Charcoal Topically & Internally

During a Disaster

ACTIVATED CHARCOAL INTRO:

Activated charcoal is known to be the most important remedy / treatment for people

who can’t afford medical care in 3rd world countries.

It has an indefinite shelf life.

It is so potent that is has been said that one gram of it (an amount the size of your

fingernail – can absorb enough toxins to fill the square footage of four tennis courts.

Considered safe and effective by the FDA.

HOW DOES AC WORK?

AC has the ability to extract and neutralize many more times its own weight in gases,

heavy metals, toxins, poisons, and other chemicals.

AC has an adsorptive effect because of the large surface area of individual grains,

with their crevices and pores.

AC works by trapping toxins and chemicals in its millions of tiny pores.

The porous surface of the activated charcoal has a negative electric charge that

causes positive charged toxins and gas to bond with it.

HOW TO USE ACTIVATED CHARCOAL DURING A DISASTER:

External Uses:

An activated charcoal poultice has the ability to reduce inflammation and absorb poisons from

your skin caused by infections, chemicals, or insect bites and stings.

When applying it topically make a poultice by using either just activated charcoal and water or

by adding a thickening agent which makes the poultice much easier to work with.

P a g e | 78

78

Create charcoal poultice by mixing charcoal powder with a bit of water until a poultice is formed or use thickening

agent such as flax seed meal, psyllium seed husk, bentonite clay, corn starch, arrow root powder, or marshmallow root

powder to thicken the charcoal mixture.

Proportions are as follows (or just mix in until desired consistency occurs):

Charcoal Water Thickener Instructions

Arrowroot Powder

2 T.

¼ cup

2 tsp

Wait 5-10 minutes

Bentonite Clay

2 T.

¼ cup

6 tsps

Wait 5-10 minutes

Cornstarch

2 T.

¼ cup

2 tsps

Wait 5-10 minutes

Flax Seed Meal

2 T.

¼ cup

2 ½ tsps.

Wait 5-10 minutes

Marshmallow Root

2 T.

¼ cup

¼ tsp (+ pinch)

Use right away.

Apply the poultice directly onto the issue and wrap with saran wrap or a damp cloth to prevent it from drying out.

Change every 10 – 20 minutes for an hour.

Change every 6-8 hours or as needed until the wound has healed.

If person is allergic to bite / sting or for snake bites, mastitis, or tetanus – Along with applying the activated charcoal

to the area of injury, give adult 1 T. of charcoal in water by mouth. For children give 1 tsp in water by mouth. Wear

poultice all day and night.

*** If possible, soak area of injury in water containing activated charcoal for 20 minutes before applying activated

charcoal poultice. (1 T of activated charcoal in 2 cups of water).

Immediately, apply a very large charcoal compress covering almost an entire extremity, centering over the bite, using

large quantities of activated charcoal, wet with water and kept moist with plastic wrap. A new compress should be

placed over the immediate vicinity of the snake bite every 10-15 minutes.

Activated Charcoal should also be taken by mouth, in the quantity of approx. 2 Tbsp. every 2 hours, for 3 doses, and 1

tsp. every hour for 24 hours. Each dose should be followed by 2 glasses of water.

P a g e | 79

Activated Charcoal Internal Uses:

Activated charcoal has the ability to bind to intestinal toxins and unfriendly microbial growth which is then

excreted through our stool.

When taking it internally either stir some into water or take in a capsule.

Do not take along with prescription or herbal medications.

For an adult, give adult 1 T. of charcoal in water by mouth every 1-2 hours. For children give ½ T. in water by

mouth every 1-2 hours – or more, if needed. Also consider using Benadryl.

(Note: Charcoal will absorb the Benadryl – use with wisdom. Assess the situation, listen to the spirit and use

wisdom in choosing either the charcoal or the Benadryl as the main treatment for the allergic reaction being

treated.)

Or take up to 1-2 T. of activated charcoal mixed in large glass of water every 2-3 hours. Decrease this amount

by half for children. Take for up to 2 weeks.

Also consider making a charcoal paste by mixing some charcoal with water and applying it directly over the

bladder area for 20 minutes. Repeat 3-4 times a day.

Take other remedies separate from charcoal by an hour or more.

Take 1-2 Tablespoons of charcoal, mixed in water. Follow up by drinking 2 cups of water. Take this 2-3 times

per day for up to two weeks. Take a lower maintenance dose after this, if necessary.

:

Activated charcoal can help draw out the toxins associated with a cavity. Mix a teaspoon of activated charcoal

powder with enough water to make a paste. Place some of the paste on a small piece of gauze, put the gauze

on the sore area and bite down so that the paste surrounds your tooth. Leave it on for up to 5 minutes, then

remove the gauze and excess paste and rinse your mouth with water. You can use this remedy 3 or 4 times a

day, as needed.

P a g e | 80

80

Take up to several charcoal capsules per hour when radiation is in the atmosphere or signs of food poisoning

is present – drinking with plenty water. Or take up to 1-2 T. of activated charcoal mixed in large glass of water

every 1-3 hours. Decrease this amount by half for children.

Stop taking activated charcoal after threat is gone. Take maintenance dose of bentonite clay instead –

activated charcoal has the tendency to pull out nutrients out of the body as well. It’s a great short term remedy

for helping to pull out radiation and for eliminating heavy metals but not a long term solution.

Gargle with a charcoal “slurry”. Mix 1 T. activated charcoal with 1/3 – ½ cup pure water. Repeat as necessary.

Mix 1 T. of activated charcoal in large glass of water and drink a few times a day. Decrease dose by half for

children. . Repeat as needed for up to two weeks – or more, if needed.

Purifying Water with Activated Charcoal:

A water filter can be created by removing the bottom of a bottle. Turn the bottle upside down (with the cap down

down) and put the following materials in the bottle.

Pebbles

Sand

A piece of cloth or bandages

Charcoal

A piece of cloth or bandages

Sand

Pebbles

-The cloth or bandages are used to ensure that all the different materials do not mix.

-The pebbles and sand filter the particles and the dirt out of the water.

-The charcoal gets a big portion of the chemicals out of the water, but it won't get it all out. (You can use charcoal

from your campfire).

Charcoal is an extremely versatile and highly effective water treatment medium. It has immense surface area. A

single pound of granular activated carbon has a filtering surface area equivalent to 125 acres! It is the best known

treatment for organic chemicals, VOCs, pesticides, herbicides, and chlorine and its by-products. It is also an

unchallenged taste-and-odor improver. When arranged in solid carbon or extruded carbon block format, it also

provides very high quality particulate filtration, in some cases down into the sub-micron level.(1)

That being said, charcoal will not remove any viruses and bacteria from the water so you have to boil the water

after it is filtered.

Again, once it comes to purifying water, activated charcoal can remove many pollutants, but can't remove pathogens.

Diatomaceous Earth

There are a handful of reasons why having diatomaceous earth on hand during a prolonged disaster

situation would be a good idea. The top four reasons include:

1. For ridding the digestive system of parasites.

2. For using it to help preserve our stored grains.

3. For eliminating garden bugs, bed bugs, fleas, and lice.

4. For doing a temporary, mild, digestive detox.

Diatomaceous earth (aka "DE") is tiny microscopic fossilized shells made up of algae and phytoplankton.

These microscopic fossilized shells have built up over time and are being mined and turned into a fine

powder called diatomaceous earth.

Using DE Internally:

The sharp edges of the diatomaceous earth particles

creates an abrasive action when taken internally

which helps clean out the digestive tract. This

benefit works well for cleansing the digestive system

– especially once it comes to cleaning out harmful

parasites.

DE is my number once substance I would

recommend for parasites. During a disaster, if

possible, I would also couple taking DE internally

with taking an anti-parasitic herb such as olive leaf, wormwood, or black walnut. The two, taken

separately, would work beautifully together.

Just like with bentonite clay and activated charcoal, diatomaceous earth is also a negatively charged

substance. Negatively charged substances attract positively charged substances so when taking DE

internally, it will attract positively charged substances to itself such as bacteria, some viruses, yeasts,

parasites and even some heavy metals.

P a g e | 83

83

Not only are these toxic substances attracted to the DE but it also becomes trapped in the cylindrical

shape of the DE particle which will also help with the elimination of these harmful substances from our

body.

One other benefit of DE is that it contains trace minerals and silica which contributes to healthy bones,

teeth and healthy cartilage.

DE can be easily taken internally by stirring one tsp of DE in a glass of water and drinking it down.

Another glass of water can be taken after drinking the first glass to help wash it down. Doing this a few

times a day for 2 weeks up to 3 months is an ideal time frame for addressing toxic or parasitic issues.

Using DE for BUGS:

One wonderful benefit of DE’s super sharp edges is that when it comes in contact with an insects

exoskeleton, it will scratch the surface of their skin / shell and they will dry out and die. This is a huge

benefit to us in the event of a disaster regarding the following bugs:

Garden Bugs

Bed Bugs

Fleas

Lice

(Internal Parasites)

Using DE for Preserving Food Storage Grains:

I like to stir DE into my grains, instead of using an oxygen packet, to keep my grains free of bugs and

mold and to make sure they can be sprouted (oxygen packets might kill the grain and render them un-

sproutable).

Diatomaceous earth will kill bug intruders by scratching their shell which causes them to dry out and

die. This prevents bugs from breeding and replicating in the container of grains. The DE also absorbs

any extra moisture which will help prevent mold from forming in the grains.

Baking Soda

Baking soda can be used for:

Bites

Burns

Stings

To kick out flu / cold

To eliminate acid reflux

To alkalize body

Bleeding

MRSA

Day 1 -- Take six doses of ½ teaspoon of baking soda in glass of cool water, at about two-hour intervals

Day 2 -- Take four doses of ½ teaspoon of baking soda in glass of cool water, at the same intervals

Day 3 -- Take two doses of ½ teaspoon of baking soda in glass of cool water morning and evening, and

thereafter ½ teaspoon in glass of cool water each morning until cold symptoms are gone.

Baking soda is best used for short periods of time in conjunction with other nutritional supports to prevent

nutritional imbalances.

Warning: Do not use internally if you are on a sodium restricted diet unless directed by a doctor.

Also used in sinus rinse bottles or enemas to help adjust water to same pH as body so body doesn’t reject the water.

Saniderm

Breathable thin translucent bandage that can be used as a substitute for stitches. Saniderm.com

Cleaning wounds before applying:

Help the person to remain calm. If the cut is large or bleeding heavily, have them lie down. If

the wound is on an arm or leg, raise the limb above the heart to slow bleeding. (21)

Remove obvious debris from the wound, such as sticks or grass. If the object is embedded in

the body, do NOT remove it. (21) (Using a poultice with either bentonite clay or slippery elm

will help pull debris out of the wound. See “Deep Wounds” in this chapter for instructions on

how to do this.)

If the cut is small, wash it out with soap and water. (21)

After putting on clean latex gloves, apply firm pressure to the wound with a folded cloth or

bandage for about 10 minutes. Do not remove the bandage to look at the wound during this

time, as it may begin bleeding again. If blood soaks through, add another cloth or bandage and

continue holding pressure on the cut for an additional 10 minutes. (21)

There are a hand full of remedies that can help get bleeding under control. They are:

• Asea

• Baking Soda

• Bentonite Clay

• Cayenne

• Hydrogen Peroxide

• Slippery Elm

• Yarrow

When bleeding has stopped, wash off any

remedy you may have used, spray on silver or

spread Neosporin on and tape a clean

bandage over the cut (or use Saniderm).

Instructions for using Saniderm:

Do not use sandierm for very large and open

wounds – use slippery elm or an herbal poultice or

clay.

Saniderm should be large enough to spread out

one inch away from all sides of wound.

Apply Saniderm to laceration. Wound will weep

under bandage causing liquid to pool under

bandage. That is good – this fluid helps the wound

heal more quickly.

Take Saniderm off of wound after 4-6 hours. Rinse

off wound. Pat dry. Add Neosporin / silver / other

remedy. Reapply new Saniderm. Repeat as

needed.

3. Day 3 – Take ½ tsp. three times a day.

The Golden Honey mixture should stay in the mouth until its complete dissolution. Typically, the cold passes

and the body recovers after three days. Many have prevented cold without taking any drugs and pills, thanks to

this mix.

You can also use this Golden Honey mixture in the treatment of respiratory diseases.

Take ½ three times a day during the week. You can add coconut milk or tea into the mix.

This mix is an excellent choice if you suffer from hemophilia and hypertension andlowers blood pressure.

Eye and Ear Infections

Ear infections can be treated using one or more of these methods:

Internally (antibiotic options such as goldenseal, Oregon grape root, nano silver, HypoRedos)

Around outside of ear: lavender oil, basil essential oil, diluted thieves oil, tea tree oil, rubbing

yarrow tincture around outside of ear

Inside ear: nano silver, hydrogen peroxide, straight onion juice, garlic chopped and soaked in olive

oil for a few hours, diluted HypoRedox

Apply remedies to meridian points for earache.

Do not use remedies inside the ear if you suspect that the ear drum may have

burst.

Signs and symptoms of a ruptured eardrum may include:

Ear pain that may subside quickly.

Clear, pus-filled or bloody drainage from your ear.

Hearing loss.

Ringing in your ear (tinnitus)

Spinning sensation (vertigo)

Nausea or vomiting that can result from vertigo.

Use remedy inside the ear by filling a dropper with the solution. Run it under warm water for a

minute by plugging one end of the dropper with your finger. Have child lie down with infected ear

facing up. Drop the silver in to the ear canal until the ear canal has filled up. Have child stay this way

for 5 minutes. Place tissue on ear and turn onto the other side, allowing the silver to drain out. Re-

apply 2 more times that day.

Use the silver internally as well: 1 tsp 3-4 times a day or more.

HypoRedox

There’s a small list of remedies that I believe were put on this

Earth at this time for current (and future) situations by a loving

and caring Heavenly Father. HypoRedox is one of these

remedies/solutions.

To purchase the HypoRedox visit

www.HealthyPreparedness.blogspot.com and go to the “Store”

tab at the top of the page – then click on the link for “more

info” under the HypoRedox section.

INTRO

HypoRedox is a hypochlorous acid solution (HOCl).

Hypochlorous acid is a disinfectant that is lethal to every

pathogen harmful to humans including pathogens such as

MRSA, E. Coli, Candida, Meningitis, Encephilitis, Salmonella,

HIV, Epstein Barr, and much more. (See lab test results at the

bottom of this info. sheet)

It disinfects 120 times better than bleach (NaClO) – yet is non-toxic and non-irritating! Bacteria can’t

become resistant to it – in fact, it kills every pathogen (virus, bacteria, fungus, mold, etc) that it has

been scientifically tested against. (See the test results at the bottom of this information sheet.)

Not only is hypochlorous acid an amazing disinfectant but it also has the ability to speed up the

healing process. Why this is the case isn’t exactly known but it more than likely has something to do

with the redox molecules contained in this special solution allowing the cells to communicate with

one another in a more effective way.

As mentioned above, HypoRedox is a hypochlorous acid solution. Although the word “acid” is in its

name – it actually isn’t acidic at all because hypochlorous acid only exists in a solution with a neutral

pH. In order for this type of disinfectant to be most effective it has to have around a 6 pH balance.

The reported benefits of Hypchlorous Acid include:

P a g e | 99

• Speeds up healing of wounds. (See Vetericyn link)

• Disinfects wounds, cuts, burns, etc (See Vetericyn link)

• Kills bacteria and viruses on contact including E.Coli, Listeria, Salmonella, HIV, and MRSA. (See test

results at the bottom of this information sheet.)

• Kills fungi and molds on contact. (See test results at the bottom of this information sheet.)

• Non-irritating, non-stinging, non-toxic.

The possible uses of Hypochlorous Acid include:

• Wound healing and disinfection.* (See Vetericyn link)

• Eye infections.* (http://novabay.com/blog-post/new-treatment-pinkeye)

• Ear infections.* (See Vetericyn link)

• For sore throats?

• For flu’s / illnesses?

• For food poisoning?

• Disinfecting tools, surfaces, equipment. (See test results at bottom of this info. sheet)

• Disinfecting vegetables / fruits / meats.

• Disinfecting ill / deceased bodies?*

• Disinfecting areas that have been infected by vomit or diarrhea.

• Disinfecting linens / materials (Think of disinfecting linens covered in diarrhea, vomit, or blood indisaster

situations.)

• Disinfecting airborne pathogens by placing in a humidifier.

• Disinfecting water of pathogens.*

• Disinfecting dishwashers.

*Note: HypoRedox isn’t certified for internal or topical use. It is EPA certified meaning that it’s certified

to be used for tools and equipment. The maker of this product didn’t have interest in getting (or paying)

for extra certifications to deem this safe to use in ways other than using it as a “surgical tool disinfectant”.

Because this solution doesn’t have an actual certification saying that it’s okay to use topically or internally

- I cannot recommend others use it topically or internally. I will, however, explain how I personally have

used it- or would use it-for each of the uses listed above.

Nebulizer

Respiratory illnesses are one of the leading causes of

death during a disaster. One of the best ways to treat

a respiratory illness is by using a nebulizer.

Only a few remedies can be used in the nebulizer.

REMEMBER our lungs are made of sensitive, delicate

tissues – do not nebulize harsh or questionable remedies.

DO NOT nebulize essential oils.

Remedies that can be safely nebulized include:

- ASAP Silver - Asea

- Lugol’s Iodine *** - GSE (possibly) ***

- Glutathione (specific type) - Baking Soda ***

- HypoRedox ***

- Magnesium Chloride

*** Be careful with these!

The following examples illustrate different ideas:

Two minutes of nebulizer use every 15 minutes for four hours.

Five minutes of nebulizer use every hour. .

Only use for up to 7 days in a row.

Nebulizing remedies can be effective for:

Lung Cancer

Pneumonia

Tuberculosis

Emphysema

Influenza (flu)

Chemical Poisoning

Asthma

Bronchitis

Other Respiratory Infections

Illness Prevention

Nebulizing is also another way to get medicines into the body on a systemic level in cases where an ill person

cannot hold remedies down. Consider applying tinctures or essential oils to meridian points, using Yarrow tea

and using a nebulizer if this is the case. If the person is dehydrated and their electrolyte levels are low (and

there isn’t a way to get the person IV’s) perform a retention enema a few times a day.

P a g e | 103

103

Enema / Rectal Syringe

Think of an enema bag as an IV. People die due to dehydration and loss of electrolyte levels during an

illness. If we can’t get to a doctor – performing a retention enema will help supply the fluids, electrolytes,

and nutrients a person needs to help them get over the illness they have.

Enemas can also be used to relieve constipation (which is another big issue during disaster) and can trigger

labor – if needed.

RETENTION ENEMA: Rehydration / Nutrition

ENEMA FLUSH: Constipation, Reducing Fever, Triggering Labor

Electrolyte recipe:

• 2 cups water

• 1-2 tsps. sugar/dextrose

• ¼ tsp salt

• Pinch of baking soda

P a g e | 104

104

A retention enema can be done as follows:

You will need:

a clean enema bag, or a can or tin with tubing.

a cloth to place under the person.

600 ml (a little more than ½ a liter bottle / 2 cups) of warm (not hot) drinking water.

An electrolyte drink/mixture or a bag of IV solution can be used instead.

What to do:

Make sure the person’s body is higher than their head.

1. Tell the person what you are doing and why.

2. Wash your hands.

3. Ask him/her to lie on her left side if she can. If possible, her body should be a little higher than her head.

4. If you have them, put on clean gloves.

5. Let the water come down to the end of the tube to get the air out. Then pinch the tubing to stop the

flow.

6. Wet the end of the tube with water or an oil, and slide it into the anus. If coherent, ask the person to

take slow, deep breaths to help them relax.

Do not put the tube in more than this much.

7. Hold the bag or can just high enough for the water to run in very slowly (about the level of the person’s

hips). It should take about 20 minutes. If the water runs out of their body, the bag may be too high. Lower

the bag so the water runs in more slowly.

8. Gently remove the tube. Tell the person to try and keep the water inside, and that the urge to pass stool

will go away soon. If the person is unconscious, you can hold their buttocks together. Retention enemas

need to be retained for 20-30 minutes to allow the body to absorb the liquids within the colon.

P a g e | 105

105

9. Clean and dry the person. Then remove your gloves and wash

your hands.

10. If needed, transport the person for medical help right away. For

enemas for those who are in shock - If the person is still in shock,

you can give another enema one hour later. If he/she is not in

shock, try to give sips of rehydration drink as you transport

him/her.

(Claudia’s online complete course on making homeopathic remedies can be found at: healthy-preparedness-

courses.thinkific.com)

When making a homeopathic remedy from particles from the air, there is a short cut method that cuts down the

steps. This way of making a homeopathic remedy isn’t as precise or accurate as using the whole line up of nine 1

oz bottles but when cramped for time, this method still works.

Here’s the short cut method:

What you’ll need:

1. Glass bowl.

2. Distilled water for the glass bowl (around 4 cups is good).

3. 80 proof vodka.

4. Distilled water for making the tincture (at least 2 cups).

5. 1, 1 oz tincture bottle with dropper.

6. 1, 4 oz tincture bottle with dropper.

Steps:

1. Set out bowl of distilled water outside containing the 4 cups of distilled water and a splash of 80 proof

vodka that will make up about 10-20% of the total solution. (Exact measurements do not need to be

taken. The bit of vodka simply helps preserve what the water is catching.)

Note: Keep this bowl of water in a place where cats won’t drink the water. If bugs, dust, or other particles get in the

water – that’s okay. The end solution will be an extremely diluted solution that won’t contain any particles from the

unwanted or unexpected contaminants.

2. Let the bowl of water sit outside for at least 24 hours. You can let it sit outside for more days than that if wanted

just watch the water to make sure it doesn’t all evaporate out. Add more water and a splash of 80 proof vodka if

it does begin to evaporate out.

3. Bring in the bowl of water after it has sat outside for at least 24 hours and do the steps below.

4. Stir water in bowl.

P a g e | 108

108

5. Fill 1 oz dropper bottle with splash of 80 proof vodka (enough to make up about 10-20% of the solution) and fill

up rest of way with distilled water.

6. Add one drop of water (your 1 x remedy) from the bowl you had set outside.

7. Close tincture bottle with dropper and success 100 times. This is now a 3x remedy.

8. Dump out all of liquid from the bottle. Give a little shake as it’s upside down.

9. Using the same bottle, repeat step 5 by adding a splash of vodka and filling up the bottle the rest of the way

with distilled water.

10. Close the tincture bottle with the dropper and success 100 times. This is now a 6x remedy.

Note: You aren’t placing one drop into the bottle from before because even after emptying the bottle and giving it a little

shake, there is still about 1-2 drops of the solution in the bottle that ends up being your “one drop” that turns into the

next diluted remedy strength after being succussed.

11. Repeat the same steps 7 more times: dump it all out and give a little shake. Fill with splash of vodka and fill up

the rest of the way with distilled water. Then succuss 100 times.

12. Once you have repeated those steps 7 more times, you will now have a 27x remedy. If wanted, save this bottle

for future use. Label it with the date and whether it’s being used for pollutants, chem trails or allergies, etc.

13. You can now create your final remedy from the 27x bottle by using 1 drop for every ounce you have in your final

remedy. (For example, if your final remedy bottle is a 4 oz bottle, use 4 drops from the 27x bottle. If it’s a 2

ounce bottle, use 2 drops from the 27x bottle.)

14. Place the appropriate amount of 27x drops into your final bottle and succuss 100 times. This is your final remedy

that you’ll be using.

Administering a Homeopathic Air Solution

Once finished this 30x remedy can be administered by giving 15 drops, in water, one to three times a day. (You

can muscle test to see if more than 15 drops need to be given to the individual.)

Usually 15-30 drops are given, per dose, for an adult. And 10-15 drops are given to children (ages 10 and under)

per dose.

Take dosage 20 minutes away from food or liquids.

Also consider using a homeopathic lymph and liver formula or drink a detoxing tea 1-2 x day along with this

remedy to support he detoxification pathways even further to help the body detox the unwanted substances

from the body. (Drink the tea 20 minutes away from using the homeopathic remedy.)
