Black cohosh plants beside shatavari roots

Hormones aren’t something you can simply add to the body and expect balance. The body makes its own, and it needs the raw materials to do it. This combination is a hormonal food: it provides the raw material for the body to make whatever hormones it calls for. And because hormones are a need for everyone, it can be used by men and women alike.

It’s especially helpful through the natural hormonal shifts of adolescence, pregnancy and menopause. It helps balance the hormones, eases the tension that so often rides along with reproductive change, and supports both the adrenal glands and the heart as they carry the body through that change.

What a Good Hormonal Food Formula Contains

This one uses eight herbs, in equal parts:

Black Cohosh, 1 part. A classic women’s herb and nervine. It supports hormonal balance and eases the tension and nervousness of reproductive change, while feeding and strengthening the nervous system.
Sarsaparilla, 1 part. A natural source of steroidal saponins that support healthy hormone balance in both men and women, traditionally used as a glandular tonic and for prostate support.
Ginseng, 1 part. A well-known adaptogen supporting energy, memory and healthy sexual function in men and women, and helping the body handle the stress of hormonal transition.
Licorice, 1 part. Supports the adrenal glands and eases the irritability and nervous exhaustion that so often come with hormonal change.
Blessed Thistle, 1 part. Supplies vitamins, minerals and hormone-supportive compounds, long included in women’s formulas to balance hormones through cycle changes and puberty.
Squaw Vine, 1 part. Tones and strengthens the uterine area, and was traditionally used in the final weeks of pregnancy to prepare the muscles for birth.
Shatavari, 1 part. A cooling, deeply moistening adaptogen that brings relief for hot flashes, night sweats and dryness, balancing the blend’s warmer herbs.
Vitex (Chaste Tree Berry), 1 part. Acts on the pituitary gland to encourage healthy progesterone production, easing mood swings and irregular cycles, especially in perimenopause.

“Parts” can be any measure you like, as long as you use the same one for every herb. By weight, that’s simply equal ounces of all eight.

Why Shatavari and Vitex

This formula once used False Unicorn Root, a pelvic tonic long valued in Western herbalism. False Unicorn has become hard to find as wild supplies are over-harvested, and it is now on the United Plant Savers At-Risk list. Rather than keep drawing on a scarce wild plant, I replaced it with Shatavari and Vitex. Together they cover what False Unicorn provided and more: Shatavari’s cooling, moistening help for hot flashes and dryness, and Vitex’s support for the pituitary’s part in a balanced cycle.

Putting It Together

Put the dry herbs in a glass jar and pour in 80-proof vodka. Once the herbs have settled, you want about 60% herb sediment on the bottom and 40% liquid on top. Shake the jar every day. The traditional timing follows the moon, from the new moon to the full moon, about two weeks. I prefer to let my extracts sit a full three months, which makes them good and strong. Then strain and bottle the liquid.

How Much and How Often

½ to 1 teaspoon, three times a day.

Three Formulas, Three Jobs

I keep three formulas for the female system, and each has its own job:

The everyday formula: basic food for the female system, a balancing formula for every woman from puberty on. It’s the starting place for anyone needing support.
The structural formula: for rebuilding and revitalizing a female system that has been worn down, as part of a program for endometriosis, cysts and similar troubles.
The hormonal formula (this post): hormonal food that gives the body the raw material to make whatever hormones it calls for, for men and women alike.

Rebuilding a Worn-Down Female System

October 2, 2026October 2, 2026 Dara Dietz

Some women come to me with more than a cycle that needs balancing. Their female system has been worn down and needs rebuilding. That’s what this combination is for: rebuilding and revitalizing the reproductive organs. It’s part of my program for women dealing with endometriosis, cysts and similar troubles.

It works alongside my basic female formula, the everyday food for the female system. This one goes deeper, bringing together the traditional women’s herbs that tone and strengthen the uterus and ovaries.

What a Good Rebuilding Formula Contains

Here is the combination I trust, with the proportions:

Golden Seal Root, 3 parts. The largest part, a well-known tonic herb valued for its broad supportive and cleansing action.
Blessed Thistle, 1 part. A traditional women’s tonic herb, long used to support healthy reproductive and glandular function.
False Unicorn Root, 1 part. A traditional women’s herb used to support the healthy function of the uterus and ovaries.
Red Raspberry Leaves, 1 part. Long used to tone and support the uterus.
Squaw Vine Herb, 1 part. Historically used to support the reproductive system through the childbearing years.
Cramp Bark, 1 part. Valued for its antispasmodic action, easing cramping and tension.
Uva Ursi Leaves, 1 part. Supports healthy urinary tract function.
Ginger Root, 1 part. Warming, supporting digestion and circulation.
Cayenne, ¼ part. Just a small amount, as a natural catalyst that stirs the circulation so the other herbs can do their work.

“Parts” can be any measure you like, as long as you use the same one for every herb.

Putting It Together

How Much and How Often

½ to 1 teaspoon in a cup of distilled water, morning and evening, or up to three times a day, six days a week, for as long as needed.

Three Formulas, Three Jobs

I keep three formulas for the female system, and each has its own job:

Food for the Female System

October 2, 2026October 2, 2026 Dara Dietz

Of all the formulas I make, this is one I use in my own life, not just recommend. Think of it as food for the female system. It’s a balancing formula that can be used from puberty on, and it never goes out of use. It’s the starter formula for any woman needing support, through the cycling years, menopause and beyond.

What I like about it is that it doesn’t try to do just one thing. It gives the body the raw material it needs to make and balance its own hormones, while calming the nervous system that so often gets frayed along with the hormonal swings. It supports better communication between the brain’s endocrine centers and the ovaries.

What a Good Female Formula Contains

Here is the combination I trust, with the proportions:

Chaste Tree Berry, 3 parts. Helps regulate irregular cycles, tending to shorten a long cycle and lengthen a short one. It’s traditionally used for other cycle-linked troubles too, like migraines and acne, and can support fertility where progesterone runs low.
Wild Yam Root, 3 parts. A natural antispasmodic, doing much of the work on cramps by relaxing muscle tension and soothing the nerves.
Dong Quai Root, 2 parts. Sometimes called the “ultimate herb” for women, traditionally used for menopause symptoms, cramps, low energy and low desire.
Damiana Leaf, 1 part. A traditional vitality tonic that supports circulation and energy and increases libido.
Licorice Root, 1 part. One of the best foods I know for the adrenal glands, helping the body handle stress and easing the nervousness and irritability of adrenals worn thin.
Hops Flowers, 1 part. A gentle, calming touch that supports restful sleep.

“Parts” can be any measure you like, as long as you use the same one for every herb.

Putting It Together

How I Use It

The amount is simple and doesn’t change: 1½ teaspoons a day, regardless of age, weight or situation. I usually take it all at once in the morning. If hot flashes or night sweats are part of the picture, split it instead and time it: an hour or two ahead of when hot flashes tend to strike, or the larger share before bed for night sweats.

Normally, set it aside the week of your period. The one exception is breakthrough or excess bleeding, during menopause or any other time. Then a full tablespoon, taken for a day or two in a row, will usually slow the bleeding within a few hours. Keep up the higher amount another day or so to help keep it from starting back up. The only thing to expect at that amount is some breast tenderness from the natural progesterone-like action. It’s harmless and clears up once you’re back to the normal amount.

Over the years I’ve watched many women use this formula to gradually come off synthetic hormones. That weaning is best done slowly, over 30 to 60 days.

My Own Story

My last cycle came after 11 months without one, and it hit hard. I was 48, and my body seemed determined to make up for all those missed months at once: heavy bleeding, clots, and emotional swings that were honestly the harder part. I took a tablespoon of my female formula twice that first day. Within a few hours the emotional swing eased and I felt like myself again, and the bleeding slowed to a normal flow in about four hours. I kept up that high amount for the week, and the bleeding stopped within five days. I never had another cycle after that, and I was more than ready.

Every woman’s experience is different, but we’re all likely to run into something unexpected along the way. Menopause doesn’t have to be a nightmare with the right support behind you.

A Family Favorite

If you have several daughters and want a peaceful household, make sure they all get their female formula. It keeps the PMS grouch away. It’s no surprise that husbands and fathers are the ones I hear from most often about keeping it in the house!

Understanding Cellulite

September 22, 2026September 29, 2026 Dara Dietz

What it is, how it forms, and natural ways to reduce it

What Cellulite Really Is

Cellulite is not a special kind of fat, and it is not a buildup of toxins. It is ordinary fat pressing up against the connective tissue that anchors the skin to the deeper layers of the body. The result is the familiar dimpled, “orange peel” texture most often seen on the thighs, hips, and buttocks.

Just beneath the skin lies a layer of fat divided into compartments by fibrous bands called septae. These bands run from the underside of the skin down to the muscle, much like the buttons on a tufted mattress. When the fat cells within these compartments enlarge, they bulge upward while the bands hold the skin down. The uneven surface we call cellulite is simply the visible outline of that structure.

How Cellulite Forms

Several factors work together to create cellulite, and understanding them helps explain why it is so common and why it responds best to a combination of approaches.

Structure: In women, the septae run vertically, so fat pushes straight up between them. In men, the bands crisscross in a mesh-like pattern that holds fat down more firmly. This is the main reason cellulite affects an estimated 80 to 90 percent of women after puberty, but relatively few men.
Hormones: Estrogen encourages fat storage in the thighs, hips, and buttocks and influences the tone of the small blood vessels in those areas. This is why cellulite typically first appears at puberty and may change with pregnancy and menopause.
Circulation and lymph flow: When microcirculation becomes sluggish and fluid is not cleared efficiently by the lymphatic system, the tissue becomes congested. Fluid retention makes the bulging more pronounced.
Aging skin: Over time, collagen production declines and the skin becomes thinner and less firm. The underlying irregularities then show through more easily.
Lifestyle and genetics: Family history, weight gain, inactivity, smoking, and a diet high in sugar (which damages collagen through a process called glycation) all contribute.

Natural Ways to Reduce Cellulite

It is important to be honest at the outset: no method, natural or medical, removes cellulite completely, because it is rooted in the basic architecture of the tissue. What can be done is to soften its appearance noticeably. Consistency matters more than any single remedy, and the best results come from addressing muscle tone, connective tissue, circulation, and fluid balance together.

Exercise and Weight

Strength training is likely the single most effective step. Building and toning the muscles of the legs and glutes firms the foundation beneath the fat, which makes the surface look smoother. Walking, cycling, and other movement also improve circulation and lymph flow in the lower body.

Maintaining a steady, healthy weight helps as well. Losing excess fat can reduce cellulite for many people, but rapid weight loss may leave the skin looser and actually make dimpling more visible. Slow and steady is the better path.

Supporting Collagen and Connective Tissue

Collagen peptides: In a controlled clinical trial, women who took bioactive collagen peptides daily (about 2.5 grams) for six months showed measurable improvement in cellulite and skin density compared with placebo.
Gotu kola (Centella asiatica): This is the most studied herb for cellulite. It supports connective tissue and collagen formation and improves microcirculation. It may be taken internally or used in topical preparations.
Diet: A diet low in sugar and rich in colorful, antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables helps protect collagen from damage. Adequate protein supplies the building blocks for connective tissue repair.

Improving Circulation and Lymph Flow

Venous-toning herbs: Horse chestnut, butcher’s broom, and ginkgo strengthen the small blood vessels and help reduce fluid congestion in the tissues.
Lymphatic herbs: Cleavers and red root are traditional lymph movers that fit naturally into a cellulite-reduction program.
Dry brushing and massage: Brushing the skin toward the heart, along with massage, stimulates lymph flow and circulation. The effect is largely temporary but builds with regular use.
Contrast showers: Alternating warm and cool water over the legs encourages circulation and firms the tissue.
Hydration: Drinking plenty of water supports healthy tissue and helps the body clear fluid rather than retain it.

Topical Support

Creams containing caffeine or green tea can produce a mild, short-term tightening effect by temporarily drawing fluid from the tissue. Topical gotu kola preparations may offer additional connective-tissue support. These work best as a complement to the internal and lifestyle measures above rather than on their own.

Other Helpful Habits

Avoiding smoking is essential, since it constricts blood vessels and accelerates collagen breakdown. Getting up and moving regularly throughout the day, rather than sitting for long periods, helps keep circulation and lymph flowing in the legs.

Setting Realistic Expectations

A realistic goal is visible improvement over three to six months. The most effective approach combines strength training, collagen and connective-tissue support, circulatory and lymphatic herbs, and regular dry brushing or massage. Cellulite is a normal feature of the female body rather than a sign of poor health, and caring for the tissue from the inside out brings benefits that go well beyond appearance.

Prostate Health Naturally

June 12, 2023October 4, 2026 Dara Dietz

DEFINITION: The prostate consists of 3 lobes which manufacture seminal fluid. The tube which empties the bladder passes over the middle lobe.

In later life, the prostate gland often becomes enlarged and causes problems by closing off the exit of urine from the bladder. This urine retention often starts by a decrease in the force of the stream of urine leaving the body.

Prostate blockage of the flow of urine because of infection or cancer can be very serious — even to the point of causing uremic poisoning within the body.

The cause of enlargement of the prostate gland is the collection of mucus and sediment in the gland. Often the male hormones produced by the body are not enough to keep the prostate gland functioning well.

The nitrates and nitrites in processed meats, hot dogs, baloney, and other cold cuts have a particularly important role in the formation of cancer of the prostate in the male.

Natural Suggestion for Herpes and other STD’s

May 23, 2023October 2, 2026 Dara Dietz

Today is the beginning of the rest of my life.

I want to be stronger today than I was yesterday.
I want to Love more Deeply,
I want to Hear More Loudly,
I want to Touch More Fully the souls of those I pass by today.
I want to heal the wounds life has inflicted.
I want to point souls to the one who has all their answers.
I want to praise more joyously,
I want to offer myself more completely
To the One who has given His all for me.

We have all made mistakes in our past, sometimes the results of our choices bring a lifetime of pain to us and those we share our journey with. Contracting an STD (Sexually Transmitted Disease) often carries lifelong consequences. Today I want to suggest some effective herbal supports that have proven helpful for others. These Suggestions are a combination of advice from Dr. John Christopher and myself.

Dr Christopher on STD’s:

The world today is on the skids. Disease is rampant and the cause is usually constipation, devitalized foods, etc. But there is one type of disorder that almost reaches epidemic proportions. This is venereal disease, the degeneration of the reproductive organs. Statistics support that far more people than you would think have or have had some form of gonorrhea. These diseases are usually sexually transmitted, but can then be passed on to innocent people and even children from contaminated latrines. There is even a strain of gonorrhea prevalent today known as the “Travis Strain” of gonorrhea (named after an air base in California where it was brought in after the war with Asia) that is resistant to penicillin and responds only to one of the most expensive forms of antibiotics which is unaffordable to the general public.

Indiscriminate sexual relations keep these diseases in constant incubation. Many people go untreated for the disorder and many others could care less if they are treated or not unless the disease advances to such a stage that the pain becomes unbearable. This disease is more common among men than women.

In gonorrhea, the genital area becomes extremely inflamed and a burning sensation occurs when the man urinates. There is also a discharge of green or yellow pus which continues for 6 to 8 weeks. It is through this pus that others can become infected. Gonorrhea eventually attacks the nervous system. If a person contracts the disease, treatment should begin immediately. A fresh fruit juice fast is recommended. The bowels should be kept clear by using the lower bowel formula. Follow the cleansing program recommended in the little booklet, Dr. Christopher’s Three Day Cleansing Program and Mucusless Diet. Add to this the herbal formula for the nerves, or some good nervine teas such as valerian root and chamomile. The prostate formula should also be used.

The new sexually transmitted disease called Herpes is not new at all but has been around since ancient times. It is akin to leprosy and is spreading in epidemic proportions. Treatment should be similar to treatment for gonorrhea. A poultice of raw garlic and slippery elm with golden seal can be applied directly to sores. This may be slightly painful, but it is one of the best ways to clear sores quickly.

Herpes is a result of toxic filth in the system so the blood stream should be kept clean by using a Red Clover Combination along with the avoidance of re-infestation by careful personal hygiene.

For most women detoxing our life as well as our bodies will bring balance and healing.

The Herbal Supports for women are powerful sources of nutrition that provided the body with the nutrients needed to build and maintain our hormonal health. The natural herbal supports provided in nature, (God’s Pharmacy) can be used at all stages of a woman’s life to restore balance and aid in a happy healthy outlook on life.

“Too many of us recall with distaste the time we became women. Instead of rejoicing as we crossed the threshold from childhood to young womanhood, we suffered shame, embarrassment, and pain from menstrual cramps. Perhaps we were uninformed and terrified at the flow; one young woman confided that she was certain that she was dying when her first period commenced, for her mother had never explained puberty to her. Most often, our mothers’ hasty and uncomfortable explanations colored our emotional reactions to menstruation.

How lovely it is for a girl to become a woman! Her body shape changes and she begins the path to motherhood when she first menstruates. Many modern mothers, having overcome their negative feelings about menstruation, are helping their young daughters celebrate their “rite of passage” into womanhood. Sometimes the mother fashions a special menstrual pad out of satin or silk, trimming it with embroidery or ribbon. After the pad is used, mother and daughter ceremonially bury it as a symbol of childhood now past. Some girls wear a pretty skirt, a special ribbon, or other adornment at the time of their periods, signifying a heightened and joyful attitude toward their bodies’ cycle. Mothers help their daughters understand the emotional and energy changes related to their cycles, using these changes to plan their monthly activities; they are most active during the time after menstruation, when their energies are concentrated, and then as the period approaches, the girl learns to be more meditative and quiet. How wonderful to have mother guide her young woman through these changes!” Excerpt from An article from Dr. Christopher Material; Read more:

Painful Periods My Testimony; By Dara Dietz

Sadly, my story is far too familiar. When womanhood began pouring out of me during my fifth grade year it marked the beginning of a monthly cycle of misery. On that fateful day my parents rushed to my school with a change of clothes and the female products necessary to rescue me from the girl’s bathroom. Release from the cycle of pain would not be so easily secured. Over the next twenty-five years I normally kept a supply of over the counter female remedies in my purse at all times. The onset and intensity of my menstrual pain was too unbearable for even a quick trip to the corner store once my cycle began.

In my late twenties the development of uterine fibroids intensified an already intolerable state of things. The fibroids caused my cycles to increase in volume and duration. A prescription for birth control pills provided some normalcy and relief but these were not the healing answers I so badly needed. My body continued to show serious signs of hormonal imbalance. During routine salon visit for a wash and cut in 1996, my stylist informed me she felt I had abnormal hair loss. She had to be right; the apparent hair loss was visible every time I ran a brush through my hair.

Browsing through the herbal remedies at my local health food store I came across a jar of Progesterone Cream, a hormonal support product made from Wild Yam. I began rubbing a small amount into my skin morning and evening. Within a couple of weeks my hair stopped falling out and my next cycle was nearly normal. The wild yam continued to prove itself and within a few months the heavy bleeding and painful cycles had greatly subsided. Two years later in 1998, I discovered the power of herbal extracts and the Female Formula which contained a list of balancing herbs used by women for hundreds of years. The Female Formula brought an end to Twenty Five years of monthly misery.

What to expect when using the Female Formula

Working with hundreds of women over the past 30 years a pattern has emerged in the way the Female Formula generally affects the cycles over the first three months of use. Three months is the average time needed to normalize a hormonally unbalanced system. It is not uncommon to skip a cycle during the first full month of using the Female Formula. The second month the cycle will resume with less hormonal issues. Most women experience greatly improved to normal cycles by the third month.

Herbal Supports for ALL Female Issues

September 13, 2017October 2, 2026 Dara Dietz

There are three basic herbal support combinations for women’s issues along with several others used when their specific herbal formulas are needed. Understanding when and how to use these formulas to support or clear everything from PMS to issues arising from Menopause will add to the quality of a woman’s life as well as that of her family.

The three basic formulas are:

Female Formula: A hormonal balancing formula
Nu-Fem Formula: Rebuilding formula for the female organs
Changease Formula: Hormonal food formula

The Female Formula is a hormonal balancing formula. The herbs in this formula have provided relief for menstrual issues ranging from excessive bleeding to extreme PMS issues. Knowing how to use this valuable formula will aid any woman facing hormonal imbalance issues. Using 1.5 tsp. daily stopping the week of your cycle will support most women enabling timely cycles while clearing all PMS issues.

At times of extreme hormonal imbalance when excessive bleeding is an issue the Female formula can be used in higher dosages to naturally stop an extended cycle and or slow the excessive bleeding to a more normal flow. This can often occur after the birth of a child, during menopause, or when dealing with fibroid tumors.

When needing to stop an extended cycle, one that has gone on past the normal 5 to 7 days or has returned before the normal 21 to 28 days which should occur between cycles, use 1 tablespoon Female Formula daily all at once in cup of hot water, in very severe cases a tablespoon morning and evening can be used. Continue this higher dose for one or two days after the bleeding has stopped to prevent breakthrough bleeding. When mid-month break through bleeding occurs increase regular dose to the tablespoon daily for a day or two to stop the bleeding, then drop back to the normal 1.5 tsp. daily dosage.

For the everyday female formula, with the herbs, proportions and how to make it, see Food for the Female System.

Side effects of using high doses of Female Formula: It is the natural progesterone occurring in the Wild Yam herb that controls or stops excess bleeding. High doses of progesterone can cause tenderness in the breasts. Not to worry when the dose is returned to normal the tenderness will disappear within a day or two. No harm no foul or lasting effects.

For the rebuilding formula, with the herbs, proportions and how to make it, see Rebuilding a Worn-Down Female System.

Nu-Fem Formula is a female rebuilding herbal combination. This herbal combination should be added to the Female formula when needing to rebuild the health of the uterus and surrounding glands for issues such as cysts, fibroid tumors or endometriosis. The entire incurables program needs to be used because flushing the liver and kidneys will aid in clearing the waste while the herbal supports rebuild the affected areas.

Changease Formula is our Hormonal Food Formula for either women or men. This formula is an excellent aid for times of serious hormonal shifting such as child birth, menopause, and at time for the early teens when hormones are building at the onset of the cycles. Red Raspberry tea is often enough for the young girls but when that is not enough then the Changease can be used to provide the hormonal food needed for a smooth transition from childhood into womanhood. For all issues begin with the Female formula adding the Changease as needed for hormonal support.

For the hormonal food formula, with the herbs, proportions and how to make it, see Hormonal Food for Men and Women.

When dealing with any degraded condition of the body or if the system fails to respond as expected to the female support combinations try adding a bit of liver flushing to your healing program. These herbal combinations will do the job, they are the gifts provided by our Father for the balancing and healing of the female organs when they fail to work the cause is often the inability of the body to properly utilize the herbal foods properly. If the nutrients cannot be absorbed there will be no healing. Clear the liver and the herbal supports will be able to do the work they were created to do.

The Ex-Mens Formula is an excellent aid and can be used with great results during a cycle where there is excessive bleeding. During my heavy bleeding I found it slowed down my flow in a matter of a few hours. This formula can provide additional support while the fibroids are clearing and the system is balancing.

Here is a tried and true way to stop the misery quickly without drugs.

-1/2 tsp lobelia is 4 ounces water
15 min later
-1/2 tbsp crampbark
15 min later
-1 tsp antispasmodic
15 min later
-1/2 tbsp crampbark

Alternate between crampbark and antispasmodic every 15 min . On the hour throw in lobelia.
Pain will eventually subside, it can take longer to subside when you pain level is already super high. As soon as you feel discomfort begin the herbal supports and they are often very quick and effective.

Herbal Answers for Impotency aka Erectile Dysfunction

November 14, 2016September 29, 2026 Dara Dietz

Impotency also known as Erectile Dysfunction (ED) is becoming a more common occurrence in the younger middle aged man. There are many good natural supports proven able to rebuild the testosterone levels. What has been missing from the healing mix is something to help clear the blockage and support circulation into the affected area.

A confession is important at this point, after 32 years with my husband the thought of giving up or even cutting back on the “good stuff” did not sit well with me. The first time the “toys” failed to work as they always had motivated me to look for answers in a way few things would. The Male formula and Male Booster were added to his morning Superfood drink. Taking several doses of herbs daily has never been a strong point for my husband. The once a day dosing of the Male formulas proved to be enough.

Over the years I have counseled several men dealing with impotency issues. The ones who recovered well not only supported their systems with the herbal aids to rebuild but also increased their physical activities and cleaned up their food programs. An understanding that an enlarged prostate can also play a part in a lack of circulation suggested we add the M&L Salve to the basic program for most men. This has proven to be very beneficial as the salve opens the area up, clearing blockage and allowing good circulation.

A good basic program for Impotency for most men would be to consume 1 tsp. Male formula 2 or 3 times a day. Topically apply the M&L Salve over the male member and sac each night for at least a week. Apply a good amount to the body and a piece of flannel material wrapped around the male members. The use of briefs will keep the “pack” in place throughout the night. This topical application can be continue longer if needed. For further support the Glands formula (Same mix as the M&L Salve) can be taken as a tea as well three times a day.

The Male Boost can be added, if needed, for additional support raising Testosterone levels. The Male Boost is a low dose formula; begin using ¼ tsp only 2 times a day. One of the members working to build his testosterone levels discovered the Male Boost formula played with this high blood pressure issues. He decided the drop in his energy levels were too severe to completely discontinue use of the formula. He found a 10 drop dose would provide the hormonal support without affecting his blood pressure. Several men using the formula with no blood pressure issues have reported using as much as ½ tsp 2 or 3 times a day without issue.

Our regular Male formula has not been known to affect the blood pressure. Those just beginning a healing program may want to start with only the Male formula and add the Male boost if symptoms suggest the need for additional support.

This program cleared up my husband’s issues and the feedback I have received has been very positive each time I have suggested these herbal supports to HEAL’s membership.
