I’m sharing my thoughts today on natural health products for Christians, because I have found some of them work very well. I would also like to help believers prepare for a time to come where they may have to wean themselves off dependence to synthetic pharmaceutical drugs. And it may help some folks break free from the huge drain on family incomes paying for such expensive medicine so often causes.
As we begin remember this…
“The Earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it”. (Psalm 24 v 1 NIV)
I discovered a long time ago that sometimes we Christians miss out on massive blessings, simply because of strange views on what may be considered acceptable within Christian circles or not. I found this when I first considered using natural health products many years ago.
However…
I soon realised that a major reason why Christians did not try certain natural health products was simply due to fear. Fear of “New Age contamination” or “false religion contamination”, and fear of what other brothers and sisters may think.
Anyhow, one day I decided to ignore what others thought and try some natural health products for myself and to be honest, I have been nothing but blessed by them.
The first things I tried were…
Aloe Vera: result {simply incredible = got rid of serious carpal tunnel syndrome + got fantastic glowing skin, looked younger, plus much more. See my full article on it here}.
Bee Pollen: result {astounding = it gave me so much strength I was practically able to build my first web design business on the back of it. It really is miraculous stuff. No wonder the Bible says to eat honey!}
Raw Garlic: result {wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. Did you know that crushed raw Garlic is one of the most potent natural antibiotics known to man. Plus it has no side effects, besides it’s glorious smell that is
}
It so awesome.
Taken early I find that it KILLS COLDS stone dead. If you eat it after a cold or flu has taken serious hold it’s not as effective, or you may need larger doses. I simply crush one clove and then finely chop it. I chew this and let it drop to the back of my throat before swallowing.
Once I’ve chewed it a little while (to get the juice out) I then wash it down with water. Normally, in under 20 minutes, my head is clear, my nose has stopped running and I feel back to normal. I’ve not had a flu for at least 6 years.
Apple Cider Vinegar: result {great, simply add a couple of caps to a glass of water two or three times a day and you can’t go wrong. I find it very good for getting my acidity levels down too}.
Green Tea: it may surprise you to see this down as a natural health product but Shenong, the Chinese “Emperor of The Five Grains” was accredited with being the person who discovered it, and it is included in the Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine (Huangdi Neijing).
(Now, before anyone goes and reads it and brands me a heretic, note this, I JUST drink green tea. I drink it, end of story. I don’t hold to any Taoist philosophy etc and I keep things simple. I drink it, it does me good. It’s just a plant!).
Results? Superb. I find it very good for settling a troubled stomach. Instantly clears my head, helps with headaches and gives me a sense of mental clarity, focus and well being. Also I drink it if I sense an annoying sore throat or cold approaching. As soon as I do, generally no more than two cups of green tea seem to chase it away.
So those are the natural health products I have used and continue to use on a regular basis, but I’m VERY excited to have discovered two more which I am just about to try. They both look even more stunning than what I’ve already used so far.
Spirulina
This seems awesome and I can’t wait to try it. Spirulina is a tiny green algae that the Japanese Government classifies as a food.
It contains large amounts of protein (50-75% compared to it’s dry weight). It is packed with Chlorophyll which is what makes vegetables like Broccoli green (why your mum always tells you to eat your greens), and is very useful for making sure your blood is balanced and has enough alkalinity. Thirdly, it has two hundred and fifty per cent more B12 than liver, and that’s just to start with.
Here is why I think Spirulina is going to be very good indeed for me…
It is stuffed with…
- Vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll, and essential fatty acids
- Highly digestible protein
- 18 Amino Acids
- Vitamins B1, B2, B6, B12, C, E and H
- It has 250% more B12 than Liver!
- One of the highest plant sources of Beta-carotene (twenty times more than carrots)
- Iron (= more than two cups of spinach per recommended daily ingestion)
- Super alkalising properties for your blood
I’m going to give it a good try and I’ll let you know how I get on.
Finally, here’s the other new natural health product I am going to order at the same time…
Chlorella.
Chorella is widely used as a natural health product in Japan.
So what exactly is it?
Chlorella is a tiny, single-celled freshwater green algae. Millions of Japanese take it every day to help detox, nourish, replenish and energise their bodies. What is also reassuring is that there are plenty of solid heath studies (Dr. Bernard Jensen’s book Chorella: Gem of the Orient notes more than 4000 have been published in Japan and Taiwan alone) that have shown how powerful this amazing natural health gift is.
Chlorella is often used to treat the following…
- Obesity
- Diabetes
- Hypoglycemia
- Arthritis
- Depression
- Severe liver damage and liver disorders
- Intestinal ulcers
- Hemorrhoids
- Asthma
- High blood pressure
- Helps normalise blood sugar
- Constipation
- Bleeding gums
- Infections
- Inflammation of joints and tissues
- Mineral deficiencies (magnesium for example)
As I say, I can’t wait to try these two super foods.
As we finish, have any other brothers and sisters used any of the natural health products I’ve highlighted above? If so please let us know and what kind of results you got. I’ll also post a follow up article to this one letting you know how I got on using Spirulina and Chlorella.
In the meantime be blessed and remember, God wants you well! That’s why he GAVE us things like Aloe Vera, Bee Pollen and dare I say it, Spirulina and Chlorella to help us stay healthy. Forget all the religious mumbo-jumbo, trust the Lord and get your health back on track Christian!
