Natural Support for the Glands

Dara Dietz

Learning how best to support our glandular system, what foods are needed to provide these internal factories with the needed nutrients for them to produce the hormones needed to maintain our best health.  Our glandular system supports, digestion, absorption and utilization of all food elements and the very existence of cells.  No physiological or mental activity is possible without them.  In their absence the body and its activities would cease to be.  Manifestly, the glands cannot pick their required elements form the blood unless their progenitors were previously taken in the foods eaten.

We are going to take a good look at the best herbal supports and foods to support the Thyroid gland, Adrenal glands, and Pancreas Gland. 

There is so much I could say about the benefits of these glandular formulas.  The Support they have provided in my body and the relief and healing provided to many of our members has been great.  I cannot say enough on the healing power of these God Given Gifts.  I dare not say more. 

The Thyroid, through the hormone thyroxine determines growth, controls body temperature, regulates the metabolism or the burning of food in the body and influences, to a great extent mental and emotional balance.  The master herb for the thyroid is Kelp.  Whither the thyroid is overactive or underactive, kelp will prove helpful in healing and restoring normal function to this gland.  Our info sheet on Thyroid will provide information on how to use the M&L Salve to shrink a goiter or remove cysts from the gland itself.  

Herbal Supports for the Thyroid: Super-kelp Capsules or Powder;  M&L Salve, and the Glands formula.

Adrenal Glands are absolutely essential to life.  The adrenals, often referred to as the suprarenal, are the Creator’s most intricate chemical factories.  “it would take acres of chemical plants” to synthetically manufacture “the 50 odd hormones or hormone like substances” produced by the adrenal glands. 

Most hypoglycemics have problems feeding themselves, for they crave protein and sugar, yet these substances are wearing on the adrenals, which are often exhausted in hypoglycemics.  You need to feed the adrenals with Licorice root and Hawthorne berries, the later being said to produce natural adrenalin.

Herbal Supports for the Adrenals: Adrenal Formula; Licorice Root extract; Hawthorne extract; Glands Formula.

Pancreas Gland, Malfunction can manifest in one of two ways; Diabetes, which is high blood sugar or hypoglycemia, which is low blood sugar.  Though they are completely different, they both stem from the same cause, a malfunction of the pancreas, which is what must be supported so it can function normally again.  The Master herb for the Pancreas is Cedar Berries. 

Herbal Supports for the Pancreas Gland: Pancreas Aid; (ELF)Liver Flushing; (LBF #1)Bowel Cleansing.

Ultimate Kidney Flush and Kidney Stone Dissolve Routine

So many of the great healing truths I have discovered over the past 25 plus years have come from our members.  So it is not a surprise that the concept of using the “Kidney Stone Dissolve Routine” as an extreme kidney flush has come from the mind of one of our overly bright members.  Several weeks ago when she called to place an order which included a Kidney Stone Dissolve Kit, I asked if she was feeling her stones returning.  She  explained that her blood pressure was ticking up without a real reason.  Since she understood that clogged up kidneys, Kidneys full of puss or sediment, could cause the heart to have work harder forcing the blood through the clogged up kidneys, she was thinking that an intense kidney flush would be helpful. 

Ultimate Kidney Flush & Stone Dissolve Routine

What a brilliant thought!!  An ELF* for the kidneys.  (*ELF=Emergency Liver Flush) Yes, this is an excellent way to quickly clear any excess sediment or puss from the filters which are our kidneys. Thank you, my dear,  from all our members for thinking on your feet and coming up with a truly magnificent way to quickly clear the kidneys. 

On the heels of this revelation we decided to, finally, produce our Kidney Stone Dissolve Routine Video.  This procedure will not take the place of the daily need to consume the “Hot Lemonade” to prevent the making of new kidney stones, but will quickly flush out the kidneys allowing them to filter better.  When the kidneys are free and clear the heart will not need to work as hard to force the blood through the body.  All will flow more freely.

Uric Acid Crystals in the Kidneys are easy to dissolve quickly. Small calcium gravel and plaque is easier and faster to dissolve than one large stone. Regardless of the size of your crystal and rock collection, if you have or even suspect any type of sediment, gravel or stone in your Kidneys or Bladder, or have been diagnosed by a doctor as having them, it is time to get to work.

GRAVEL REMOVER
There is much disagreement about Hydrangea’s stone-dissolving properties. Most authorities agree that it does remove the stones, but not everyone considers the herb a solvent. Dr. Butler affirmed that the herb relieves the pain of the passing of the calculi. Dr. Shook explained that the sharp pain that is associated with gravel deposits comes from the sharp points of the crystal piercing the kidney or ureter. When the sharp points are even partially dissolved, he said, the pain, hemorrhage and inflammation all subside, and the stone or stones frequently pass with just a stretching of the tubes. How, he asked, is it possible to account for the fact that when these stones pass through easily after the administration of Hydrangea, they are found to be smooth and round, while x-rays revealed their sharp point piercing the tissues? He said that their clinical evidence proved that Hydrangea is truly a stone solvent.

The two Herbal Combinations you will need to make or buy are in the Kidney Stone Dissolve Kit:

  • Kidney formula: Uva Ursi leaves, Juniper berries, Corn silk, Horsetail herb, Pipsissewa leaf, Burdock root and seed Goldenrod flower and Parsley Root.
  • Kidney Bladder Tea: Juniper berries, Corn silk, Uva Ursi leaves, Parsley root and leaf, Dandelion leaf, Horsetail herb, Goldenrod flower , Hydrangea root, Gravel root and Marshmallow root, Orange peel and Peppermint leaf.

Here is the Stone Dissolving Routine used at HEAL to dissolve kidney stones.

This routine takes 3 days and can be repeated.

On Day One Take a gallon jug and fill it with the ingredients listed below. Let the mixture steep in a warm place for a whole day, shaking every couple of hours for a minute or two.

In a Gallon Jug Combine the Following:

  • 98 ounces Organic freshly juiced Apples (use the tartest available: i.e. Granny Smith’s
  • 10 ounces Organic Fresh squeezed Lemon Juice
  • 10 ounces Organic Fresh squeezed Lime Juice
  • 10 ounces Organic, Raw Unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 8 oz of unprepared Dry Kidney Flush Tea One
  • 2 oz bottle of the Kidney Formula (Added just before consuming; after dry herbs have been strained out)

To make this formula stronger, mix all the ingredients in a blender
This will break down and smash all the herbs.


The herbal mixture needs to sit at room temperature for 24 hours.


Then strain through a stainless steel strainer or squeeze through a clean, cotton T-shirt.


Add your two ounce bottle of Kidney formula.


The strained formula must now be kept in the refrigerator until it is all consumed.


On Day Two & Three after it has brewed drink 4 ounces each waking hour followed by a glass of distilled water. It will take almost 2 days to drink the entire gallon of liquid. You can even drink an ounce every 15 minutes. Considering that you Sleep 8 hours and are up for 16, if you drink 4 ounces every hour that you are awake, you will consume a total of 64 ounces each day which means this brew will last you almost 2 days.

You will also be drinking some distilled water, up to 64 ounces a day. Only distilled water, the emptiest water is allowed. Distilled water is so empty, it is like a vacuum, and it is the universal solvent especially for unwanted mineral deposits. Just by drinking distilled water on a regular basis you dissolve stones, and prevent new ones from forming. But when added to this routine you’ll have a real winner.

Tooth and Gum Health

Dr. Christopher

Tooth problems start several generations back. The weakness of calcium deficiency is passed from parent to child. By following the same parental pattern of “poor food selection,” each new crop of babies becomes weaker. “The sins (of omission and of commission) of the parents are passed on to the third and fourth generation.” While the baby is being carried in the womb, Mother Nature is interested in that which is being produced more than the one producing. She is continually trying to upgrade humans and animals by drawing on the mother to supply the child. How often do we hear the expression, “Well, I’m carrying another child, so that means more varicose veins and loss of more teeth – I don’t see why mothers have to suffer this way.” Please don’t blame the Lord for these conditions, rather blame the use of pastries, soda pop, candy, sugar, ice cream, etc. The sugar leaches the calcium out of the body. Pregnancy is a strain on body calcium, because the mother must have enough calcium in her body for both her and the baby being formed, and later for nursing. If there is not enough calcium for her, because of this leaching process by the sugar (of past and present), the fetus draws on the mother’s body. The calcium it now takes is from the bones, muscles, and the teeth, etc. Sometimes so much is taken from the mother that she will, after a number of babies, have bone and muscle problems from a great lack of calcium.

When a child is being formed and there is not enough calcium being supplied to the fetus, the jaw of the child will not form fully. It will be narrow instead of broad. When it is time for the child to cut teeth, they cannot come in “Straight” because of a crowded jaw space. So, naturally, they will come in crooked. Later as there is not enough room for the wisdom teeth, they must often be extracted before coming through. When the day comes that the jaw is adequately large and well-shaped to accommodate all thirty-two teeth without crowding them to crookedness, and the wisdom teeth can remain until old age (and in comfort), it will mean we humans have “gained enough wisdom” to keep them!

The basic cause of calcium loss, of course, as mentioned, is leaching out the calcium with sugars and a toxic body condition. Nearly all tooth decay comes from the blood stream, saliva, and the inside of the teeth, not only from the external surface. The teeth deteriorate but it is from the toxic blood stream and the enamel-destroying toxic saliva which is a result of an impure (toxic) blood stream. If a child has good wholesome food and has been given a “good solid start in life” with a full healthy set of teeth and jaws, he can go through life without tooth problems. The condition of perfect teeth is, of course, dependent upon a continual use of wholesome and proper foods. –Advice from Dr. Christopher.

Dara Dietz on Teeth & Gums

Calcium from Eggshells:

Another type of natural calcium is found in the use of eggshells.

A chicken consumes grit and sandy materials, and these materials go into and through the gizzard into the blood stream. Then these calcium-type materials are taken from the blood stream to form the egg shell.

After breaking the eggshell open, be careful to pull out the small membrane that lines the shell. This membrane is high in cholesterol and it is wise to eliminate it.

Dry the shells at room temperature or under 130 F.

When thoroughly dry, powder the shells in a blender, nut mill or with a rolling pin.

When the powder from one dozen eggshells is ready and finely powdered, cover with one pint of apple cider vinegar or one pint of lemon juice (lemon juice will sour and spoil quicker than the apple cider vinegar).

Mix the eggshell powder and liquid in a large container, because the chemical reaction will cause the solution to foam.

Dosage:

  • For the adult, use two or more tablespoons (or add to distilled water, tea or juice if desired)

For children, the same, but in proportion

Some people like to add a tablespoon of honey for each tablespoon of the vinegar-calcium mix, as this is a great help in adjusting the hydrochloric acid balance in the body as well as feeding calcium to the system (read Cyril Scott’s book on Folk Remedies).

Eye Health Naturally

IMG_6785

Being able to see well adds joy as well as safety to everything from a simple stroll down the road to reading a story to a child.  Several years ago I began to notice small black specks floating through my vision.  It was quite disconcerting to look into what should have been a clear glass of water only to see black specks floating on the surface.  After a bit of research I discovered the small specks floating in my vision were actually called “floaters”.  This issue appears when waste accumulates in the clear gel of the eyeball.  The waste will float into the field of vision overlaying the image with black specks.  In serious cases the specks can become like ropes blocking out large amounts from the field of sight.

The Eyebright Eyewash cleared up the floaters quickly.  IT took only one or two flushes using a few drops of the Eyebright extract in an Eyecup of distilled water to completely clear the floaters.  Over the years since when the floaters have tried to return they have been quickly cleared with a single eye flush.

Eye Health Class- Flushing the Eyes

Since moving to the wet, humid south from the dry climate of Southern California in 1996 I began to experience itching and burning in my eyes during the spring and summer months.  Allergy eyes from the high pollen added to the eye strain from long hours working in front of a computer screen would leave my eyes feeling like sandpaper.  Flushing my eyes using the eyecup with the eyebright drops mixed in distilled water completely cleared the watery, gritty and tired feeling after a long day of over use.

IMG_6789

Eye Health is all about circulation.  The tiny vessels supporting the eyes are extremely small making it difficult for the body to easily clear the waste from the eyeball.  The Eyebright eyewash increasing the circulation of fresh blood into the eye while aiding the removal of waste from the eyeball. Circulation is good healing blood loaded with nutrients in while the waste is flushed out.

The more serious eye ailments such as Glaucoma, Cataracts, and Bad Vision have been greatly aided and in many cases reversed using the Eyebright Eyewash.  HEAL’s Eye-Ailments info Sheet will provide additional information on supporting the eyes naturally.

Blood Sugar Testimony

sun-drenched

Several years ago we introduced the Pancreas Support Formula.  Since its introduction this formula has never failed in supporting blood sugar issues.  Low Blood Sugar can have frightening as well as debilitating effects on the body.  As a child and on into my teens I experienced what I have called “Brown-outs”.  During these events I could hear but not respond to my surroundings.  Lethargy would settle in so deep that I would find myself fighting to wake up.  Since adding the Pancreas Support formula these events have been all but eliminated.  The formula has even prevented an event from escalating when taken at its onset.  I can say from experience that the Pancreas Support formula truly supports low blood sugar issues.

The feedback provided by our members with type II diabetes has consistently showed the benefits of the Pancreas Support formula for Diabetic issues.  In cases where a good food program is followed the blood sugar numbers fall rapidly, often within days, back into the normal range.  Many of our members have reported after a few days to a few weeks that they no longer needed their medication.  Their blood sugar levels had stabilized in the normal range.

The Pancreas Support formula is not a drug that forces a reaction on the system.  This all herb formula supports the pancreas with nutrients and nutrition specifically for this, often overworked, gland.  The overall effects of the Cedar Berry, the master herb in this formula, on the pancreas, are not completely understood.  The understanding of each of the Father’s master herbs eludes me at times, what I do understand is that the Father has not left us without the aids needed to heal our bodies.  Time and again the Cedar Berry has proven itself able to clear all types of blood sugar issues from the system without any ill effects.

Understanding Kidney Function

An article by Dr. John R. Christopher provides a simple but complete understanding of kidney function:

DCPhoto“The duties of the kidneys are best described by calling them the filters of the blood.

“Your blood flows constantly through your kidneys to be purified or filtered. You might be surprised to learn that more than 500 grains of waste matter, acids and poisons have to be moved from the blood through the kidneys every 24 hours.  You can easily see, therefore, that on this filtering and eliminating depends your health to a very great extent. Let the kidneys fail to function properly and nature will call your attention to it right away.

“You will feel depressed and tired, restless at night, and pains in the back will show up. There might be scanty urine or a desire to urinate frequently. Your head will ache and many other aches and pains will be making their appearance.

“You really cannot be surprised that you do not feel well.

“Just figure your kidneys would do only half the work and eliminate only 250 grains of waste, what will become of the other 250 grains? They will be carried back into your blood and poison your system.

“Watch, therefore, your kidneys and deal with even minor irregularity promptly.

“To avoid trouble be careful with your diet.

“Americans consume daily 80 grs. of meat or nearly 3 ounces more of protein-thus attempting to dispose of about 35 grams more than we have capacity for. This overload gradually smashes the kidneys and throws them out of commission.

“Our kidneys cannot talk; they just have to stay mum until a hundred and one bodily disorders start us looking around for some mysterious cause of serious trouble. Then, as a rule, it is too late to apologize to the kidneys.”

Energy

healthy_mind_healthy_bodyPlagued with low functioning thyroid since my early teens my radar goes off anytime I hear the whispered promise of free energy.  Building, Maintaining or just finding the Energy to live what I dream; an unrestricted source of physical & emotional energy flowing through my life allowing me to get it all done with enough in reserve for the fun stuff, without destroying myself.  Finding and plugging into this source has been an ongoing quest my entire life.  I refuse to destroy my adrenals with caffeine or black tea; these bring the promise of vitality while actually robbing your adrenals of what little strength they have left.

No, only real free energy will do.  Over the years I have discovered a few excellent herbal sources which provide real usable energy.  These will not only help me sail through today but build up my systems for a better tomorrow.    My favorite, hands down is Kelp.  This stuff is great, not only did it rebuild my poorly functioning thyroid gland but I no longer have to take thyroid medication.  When I began using thyroid medication in my teens I was told it would be forever.  The doctor was wrong, after several years using a good kelp blend the doctor who checked my blood work said my thyroid was functioning within normal levels.

Superfood is another great source of quick energy.  When using 4 tablespoons two or three times a day to rebuild my system my daily energy levels shoot through the roof.  This stuff is great.  Try it you will be amazed.

Rebuilding the Adrenals is a long slow process much better to protect than to have to rebuild.  The Adrenal formula provides energy enhancing herbals allowing the adrenals a rest while providing energy to get through the day.  For more on strengthening the adrenals see the Adrenal Information Sheet.

Herbal Support for the Kidneys

Kidney in body

Kidney issues seem to have always been a part of my life.  As a child my parents neglect to properly care for my infected Kidneys resulted in serious damage to my entire renal system.  A painful infection was allowed to go unchecked until my high fever forced a family friend to take me to the emergency room.

Until being introduced to herbs and natural healing in the early 1990’s doctor proscribed antibiotics was a regular part of my life.  Since discovering the healing power of herbs I have taken no proscribed drugs for infection.  Combining the infection fighting herbs into Herbal Extracts for my infections has proven effective every time they have been used.

Another Natural Healing Tool

The “Herbal Fomentation” introduces healing herbs directly into the affected area by applying hot towels soaked in a concentration herbal tea.  These hot towels are then applied over the damaged or sick area, covered with plastic and heavy blankets to keep the heat in.  The packs must be changed as they cool.  Fomentations are an excellent way of introducing the healing herbs but way to messy and time consuming.  Few people will set up and use these vital applications.

Hassle FREE Fomentations

We have learned to make use of another powerful natural healing tool, the Salve.

Salves are a way of introducing herbs right into the affected area of the body.  Depending on the issue and salve being used they can be massaged into the area or applied as a flannel pack over the affected area.  When packing the salve cover with plastic wrap, a towel and a moist heating pad for dramatic results on many conditions.

This week we are developing a new salve for use with chronic or inflamed kidney conditions.  This Salve can be applied to flannel and placed directly over the kidneys.  The herbs in this formula promote urine production and support the health of the kidney.

Kidney Salve Combination: Parsley Root, Juniper Berries, Marshmallow Root, Ginger Root and Burdock Root.

Dr. John R. Christopher provides an excellent understanding of what the Kidney’s really do:

“The duties of the kidneys are best described by calling them the filters of the blood.

Low Blood Sugar Issues

Blood Sugar Issues seem to be on the rise.  I’ve had several phone calls this week where members were asking if there were any herbal support for Low Blood Sugar.  One member described what I have called “night terrors” wanting to wake up but not having the ability to move or speak.  You are aware of the activity around you but unable to respond in any way.  This condition is very frightening.  The Pancreas Support Formula will support both the Low and High Blood Sugar issues.  A teaspoon of formula in a cup of hot water morning and evening will usually put an end to those awful episodes.  The Pancreas Support formula is food for the pancreas.

Eating a Balanced Food Program: It is important when changing to a new way of eating such as vegan or vegetarian that you buy several good cook books.  The reason many people fail to make a successful transition is because their food program becomes too poor.  They fail to provide a varied and complete food program. Many will fall into the habit of eating the same food day in and day out.  Not only does this become boring but it creates a nutritional void in the system.  It is important to change it up, try new foods.  Learn how to sprout beans as well as cook with them.

Here are three of my favorite cookbooks.

The Happy Herbivore Cookbook: very tasty dishes.  She knows how to use her seasoning well.  Yummy food!!

Forks Over Knives – The Cookbook:  Lots of great food ideas and very tasty.

Raw Food Made Easy for 1 or 2 People  Don’t let the title put you off, there is some serious good eating in this book.
