Using herbs for healing is important. When you take herbs, you allow nutrients to enter the body’s system and that sometimes reduces the symptoms of some diseases. Herbs nourish, detoxify and stimulate the system.
The stimulating herbs help to increase the production of enzymes and hormones. They can stimulate the kidneys, helping them to remove harmful toxins from the body. Some of the herbs attract the toxins to them and then the toxins are passed through the system and out of the body. Many herbs will kill invading organisms and bacteria. (more…)
Because menopausal symptoms are the result of the depletion of estrogen hormones, you need to make a recipe that will nourish both the adrenal glands and the ovaries. The adrenal glands carry on the production of this hormone when the ovaries are missing.
A recipe to deal with menopausal symptoms should also include herbs that have estrogen-like properties. Wild yam root, black cohosh root, and licorice root are examples of this. We are not trying to replace the missing estrogen. We are teaching the body to replace the missing hormones; we are teaching the body to make it’s own substitute. (more…)
