A compulsory
stage for strengthening the immunity system
Alternative medicine is mainly based on
creating the balance between two basic process of our body:
assimilation and elimination. Most often, illness and suffering
occur when we assimilate a lot of toxins which we cannot eliminate
normally. For instance, if we live in a city and breathe noxe
everyday, drink common/normal water and eat food with synthetic
additives, our body fills with harming substances. All that
prevents our body from fighting against any disease.
Psychologically speaking, things are the same: we still feel
restless, tormented by different conflicts or suffer from
increased negative emotions. We suffer from insomnia,
irritability, depression and so on. What should we do? We cannot
leave our job or family and live in loneliness where there is no
stress. We should eliminate toxins and regain our balance. In
order to eliminate both physical and psychical toxins, we must use
natural remedies. We can use enema and therapeutic vomiting. But
we can also use bitter and cleansing plants.
Cleansing
plants
They are meant for a "general cleaning"
of our body, by enabling elimination of waste through sweat, urine
and defecation. Purification is more intensive in case of persons
suffering from intoxication: they sweat excessively, have a
special smell, urinate frequently, and suffer from different kinds
of rush. There are more than 30 cleansing plants in Romania: some
intensive, some milder. We shall point out several herbs which are
mild and have no side effects.
Viola tricolor
It
is the most important and complete herb. Very sensitive persons,
who suffer from cold during cold season, should use it in
particular. It is perfect against: bronchitis, asthma,
rheumatism, etc. We recommend to home-made the following
product: take a china pot or a bottle and put 2-3 teaspoons of
sliced herb into half litre of spring or mineral water on top of
it. Let the plant soak over night, at room temperature then,
filter it. The rest of the plant should be boiled for half an
hour, into half litre of hot water; let it cool down and filter
it. Combine the soak with the extract you have obtained after
boiling it and drink it all day long.
Juniper grains - (Juniperus
communis)
It is a good remedy for people who suffer
from water retention, kidney or bladder disorder. We recommend the
tincture: one teaspoons diluted into half glass of water; drink it
three times a day.
Receipt: Put water into a jar,
add 15 teaspoons of ground grains and one glass of alcohol (70
degrees); seal the jar and let the mixture
soak for 10 days. Then, filter it through a piece of lint and keep
it into small dark coloured bottles. You can also buy it from the
chemists' shops.
Elder fruits (Sanbucus nigra)
They
are the most effective and complex herbs. You can use a tincture
made of fresh fruits. You can buy it from natural product shops.
It enables the intestinal activity, it is perfect against slow
digestion or constipation. It also eliminates toxins and liquids,
through sweating and diuresis. It also regulates weight. You
should use it at the beginning of the cold season, due to the fact
that it improves the immunity system.
For those who have
real weight problems, we recommend the following cure: 1st
day - one teaspoon at 6 p.m.; 2nd day - two teaspoons,
at the same hour; 7th day - 7 teaspoons. Follow the
cure for 30 days. Progressive dose should be taken for not
producing damage to intestinal activity.
How much should a cure last?
The
cure should last as long as the illness disappears, according to
how serious they are. For a healthy person who has no major vices,
a two weeks-cure would suffice. It creates immunity. For sensitive
persons who easily suffer from cold or breathing problems, a cure
should last for a whole month. They may keep it as long as they
like.
Results
First of all, the cure enables us
to feel lighter, fresh, rested, more resisting (both physically
and psychically). Remedies also stimulate immunity. Each plant is
meant for a particular illness:
- Viola tricolor helps
eliminating chronic breathing diseases (bronchitis and asthma),
allergies, etc.;
- juniper tincture: increases kidney and
bladder immunity, eliminates cystitis, nephritis or urethritis;
-
elder flower-tincture: eliminates constipation and helps losing
weight.
Bitter plants
They are real
elixirs. They are also called bitter tonic plants, because most of
the biologic-chemical process turn active due to the tonic
substances. The cure based on bitter plants should be related to
cleansing plants. Therefore, the dis intoxication should be more
effective and should happen faster. Bitter plants and remedies may
be used besides dis intoxication diets, especially by people who
suffer from liver and gall problems or constipation.
In the
following, we shall present you several cleansing plants:
Wormwood (Artemisia absinthum)
It
is generally perfect for dis intoxication: for people who live a
sedentary life, who suffer from slow digestion or asthenia.
Because it is very bitter, some may not tolerate it. Therefore, we
recommend the tincture: take 3 teaspoons of tincture/day, diluted
into little water, before eating. The cure should last for no more
than 2 weeks. Then, make a 10 days-pause and repeat it. If one
does not make a pause, wormwood may produce undesired addiction.
Common celandine (Chelidonium
majus)
It is rather toxic, it strongly influences liver and
gall, it drains and regenerates perfectly. Use powder, obtained by
milling it with the electrical coffee blender. Take one teaspoon
(almost 0.25 g), three times/day, on empty stomach.
Swedish
bitter - it is a good remedy that you can buy from natural
products' shops. It is made of bitter plants. It is also called
Swedish tonic drink. Take 1.5/1 teaspoon before each meal. Mix it
into water or tea.
How and for how long should we take
bitter plants?
Usually, cleansing plants should be used
first of all, at least half hour before eating. Bitter plants
should be taken 10-15 minutes before eating. To be more efficient,
one should take them for an entire week, after finishing the cure
with cleansing plants. Moreover, if you suffer from liver or
digestion disorder, the cure based on bitter tonic drinks should
last for a long time (even for months). On the contrary, any toxin
reappears soon after and cancels our efforts.
Results after taking bitter
plants
The cure is an auxiliary to the cure with cleansing
plants. Bitter plants helps us obtain the immunity stimulation and
regulation. They also help a certain kind of persons. Wormwood is
good against sedentary life and digestion problems. Common
celandine is good for those who suffered from serious intoxication
which had harmed the liver, in case of hepatitis or lazy gall.
Swedish bitter is used for several disease: it stimulates
digestion, prevents hypo-acid gastritis or frequent indigestion.
Bitter plants are forbidden for:
- extremely
suffering or weak persons, people who recover after serious
disease.
Wormwood is forbidden for pregnant women or
people suffering from acute hyper-acid gastritis.
Nourishment
during cure with bitter plants:
All along the cure, you
should follow a diet based on vegetables or milk products in order
to support dis intoxication. Bitter plants are used for
eliminating harming substances from of our body. In the following,
we recommend several aliments:
- freshly squeezed apple or
carrot juice: they are very nourishing and compensate the lack of
vitamins and minerals which might occur. Carrot juice is good for
people who suffer from gastritis, colon swelling; apple juice is
perfect for aged or weak people, for it produces energy.
-
cereal flakes (barley, oat, wheat): they contain vegetable fibers
who clean out the digestive tract. Certain minerals they contain
compensate the massive loss of minerals and oligo-elements, when
using strong cleansing plants.
- whole-meal bread - it is used
like in case of cereals, for it contains vegetable fibers who
allow absorption and elimination of toxins and waste from the
digestive tract.
- olive oil (cold processing) - it is slightly
laxative, it cleans all blood vessels and regulates cholesterol.
-
fresh uncooked cabbage - salad; its enzymes help to the process of
dis intoxication. It cleans out the blood and protects the stomach
mucous.
- nuts, melon seeds and sun-flower seeds - they produce
energy which we need during dis intoxication.
