- Inflammation is part of the body's trying to heal. Basically what is happening is when we injure ourselves inflammatory hormones called prostaglandins dilate the blood vessels in the area to increase blood flow and thus [drive] oxygen and nutrients to the area to promote healing. When the blood vessels are dilated like this for a while though they become permeable so they leak fluids in to the surrounding tissues. This is the swelling that people experience.
- Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs work by inhibiting these prostaglandins thereby constricting the blood vessels. This prevents the leakage of fluid, but also inhibits the healing process. In addition these drugs are known for causing heart attacks, strokes, chemical induced hepatitis, kidney failure, loss of vision and tinnitus because they can reduce or cut off the blood supply to organs and other tissues. And contrary to popular belief this does not require long term use or excessive doses. There were 2 dozen deaths from Ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, Nuprin, etc.) induced hepatitis during clinical trials. And I know 4 people that had their kidneys shut down after taking a single recommended dose of ibuprofen. The people most at risk are those with circulatory disorders such as those with Raynaud's, congestive heart failure, diabetes, etc.
- A couple of options to help with the pain and swelling without inhibiting healing are either using an >arnica cream topically over the injured area, or internally >licorice root and >yucca root are both strong steroidal anti-inflammatories.
- The easiest way to explain this would be to compare it with phytoestrogens. Phytoestrogens do not contain actual estrogens. They just have weak estrogenic effects. When talking about anti-inflammatory plants the "steroidal" anti-inflammatories do not contain actual steroids. They contain sterols, which have mild steroidal properties and help support the adrenals that produce the body's steroids. Where they really differ from true steroids though is that like phytoestrogens that regulate estrogens, phytosterols regulate the inflammatory response. Even though they partially inhibit prostaglandin synthesis, which can constrict blood vessels, sterols also dilate blood vessels. This is one of the reasons sterol sources are used to lower blood pressure.

__**PAIN
https://draxe.com/natural-painkillers/
_1. Painfully Spicy Foods
_If you’ve got a taste for hot stuff, you likely know some level of pain is involved. Interestingly, though, hot foods like wasabi and cayenne pepper can actually act as natural painkillers. Cayenne pepper benefits include several types of natural pain relief. The powerful pepper actually helps alleviate post-operative pain, including pain relief after a mastectomy or amputation.
_Cayenne pepper is also a potent candida killer. Scientists found it’s active against 16 different fungal strains, including candida, a common internal infection linked to joint pain, among other candida symptoms. (1) Cayenne also provides external pain relieve. Capsaicin, an important natural painkiller found in cayenne, helps treat muscle soreness, tension and even skin infections. Look for it in natural painkilling creams.
_Wasabi is another spicy food with natural painkilling properties. Scientists are studying the isothiocyanates in wasabi as potential pain relievers. Researcher from University of California San Francisco made a recent discovery suggesting that isothiocyanates could block an inflammation receptor, making it a potentially important natural painkiller. (2)
_2. Powerful Pain-Relieving Oils
_Evening Primrose Oil for Menstrual Pain
_Evening primrose oil is naturally rich in the essential fatty acid gamma-linolenic acid and is becoming more popular around the world as a natural PMS treatment. Many women take it to alleviate common premenstrual symptoms, including pain, thanks to its hormone-balancing effects.
_I recommend a woman takes 1,500 milligrams starting on the first day of her period and continuing until ovulation. If your’e on certain antidepressants, you have a bleeding or a seizure disorder, you’re on phenothiazine drugs for schizophrenia, or you’re being treated for high blood pressure, you should talk to your doctor before starting evening primrose oil.
_Arnica Oil for Bruises & Carpal Tunnel Pain
_Not as popular as many other essential oils, arnica oil belongs in every medicine cabinet. Considered generally safe for topical use, arnica oil used on the skin helps ease inflammatory pain associated with insect bites, bruises and even arthritis flare-ups. (5, 6) To treat bruises, applying arnica oil twice daily (as long as the skin is not broken) helps reduce bruising inflammation even better than low-concentration vitamin K formulations. (3)
_When it comes to carpal tunnel relief, arnica oils is also a smart choice in the natural painkillers department. For some, it helps reduce pain to the point of not needing carpal tunnel surgery. For others, arnica oil is a proven way to help lower inflammation and associated pain in the weeks following carpal tunnel surgery. (4)
_Lavender & Peppermint Oils for Muscle Pain & Headache Relief
_One of the benefits of peppermint oil involves its natural painkiller and muscle-relaxant properties. It’s even been shown to help alleviate fibromyalgia and myofascial pain syndrome. (5)
_For natural headache relief, two essential oils team up for natural pain relief. Peppermint oil improves circulation and lavender reduces muscle tension — two ways to quickly stop a headache in its tracks. Try placing a few drops of peppermint or lavender oil into your hands and then rubbing the blend on your forehead, temples and back of neck. You can also dilute a few drops down by mixing the essential oils with almond, grapeseed or coconut oil.
_The peppermint-lavender combo also teams up to reduce post-workout muscle pain. This handy homemade muscle rub recipe also helps alleviate sore muscles:
natural painkillers - dr. axe
_Note: Certain essential oils posses incredible pain-reducing qualities. (As always, it’s important to use essential oils according to directions because these plant-based compounds are potent. So be sure to mix with carrier oils accordingly when appropriate.)
_3. Epsom Salt
_You may already know that magnesium-rich epsom salt is a natural painkiller for bone and joint pain and muscle soreness. (It’s a go-to remedy for heel spur pain, specifically.) But epsom salt can also come in handy when you’re dealing with a painful splinter or even post-childbirth soreness.
_Soaking an area affected with a splinter in warm water and epsom salt helps painlessly draw out splinters. A sitz bath including epsom salt can help increase magnesium and quell inflammation associated with soreness after childbirth.
_4. Self Myofascial Release
_Foam roller exercises are a form of self-myofascial release that, while kind of mildly painful at times, actually gets out those nagging muscle knots while helping you fix muscle imbalances that lead to poor posture and related musculoskeletal pain. It’s also an emerging treatment to reduce your risk of developing delayed muscle onset soreness, a common exercise-related pain that keeps people out of the gym. (6)
_5. Drink Your Great-Grandma’s Go-To Broth
_Back in the “olden days,” our ancestors didn’t like to waste any part of an animal they were using for food. Because of that, back then, bone broth was a normal part of almost everyone’s diet. Made of bones, marrow, skin, feet, tendons and ligaments, this old-fashioned stock helped provide an ample dose of collagen, proline, glycine and glutamine that is largely missing from the modern American diet.
_Bone broths contain minerals in forms that your body can easily absorb: calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, silicon, sulphur and others. They contain chondroitin sulfate and glucosamine, the compounds sold as pricey supplements to reduce inflammation, arthritis and joint pain. (7) Here’s one of my go-to bone broth recipes.
_One of the reasons bone broth serves as such a potent natural painkiller involves the ability to act as a soft cushion to help bones glide without friction due to its gelatin content. Think of it as a joint anti-ager.
_6. Graston Technique
_Digging a metal tool into a painful spot, such as the bottom of your foot if you’re dealing with plantar fasciitis, sounds like some sort of medieval torture practice. The Graston technique is an instrument-aided manual therapy that serves as a noninvasive way to deal with soft tissue ailments like achilles tendonitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, fibromyalgia, shin splints, back and shoulder pain, and other ailments. It’s even been proven to help relieve pain associated with chronic conditions like trigger finger and post-surgery pain in a way that can reduce the amount of painkillers administered.
_The technique works by targeting scar tissues, alerting the body’s immune system that it’s an area that needs to be targeted and healed.
_7. Needles
_When you think of a needle poking into your skin, the last thing you probably think about is natural pain relief. The truth is, though, that dry needling works by stimulating trigger points to reduce pain or disability. A 2007 study found dry needling significantly reduced shoulder pain by targeting a trigger point. Dry needling can also help deal with trigger points that reduce a person’s range of motion, which can lead to serious pain and musculoskeletal side effects.
_8. Rolfing
_Could you find pain relief through a method that focuses on soft tissue manipulation and your psyche? The answer is yes. Rolfing, also known as structural integration, involves soft tissue work and movement education to realign your body’s myofascial structure with gravity. (8.) (Think of your body’s fascia as the “netting” that encases your muscles and organs.)
_Rolfing not only relieves physical muscle pain rooted in your fascia, but also improves your emotional well-being and energy. Whether you’re an athlete looking to improve your game or someone suffering with TMJ pain, chronic back pain or spine pain, rolfing is something worth exploring. It’s a potent natural painkiller that impacts your neuromuscular system in a positive, pill-free way.

Otherwise >raw pumpkin seeds, >papaya seeds, >green papaya and >horseradish are all excellent antiparasiticals. Again a little yucca root will help with penetration into parasites and eggs.

__PARKINSON'S

_Parkinson's is best treated by elevating dopamine. The amino acids >phenylalanine or >tyrosine can be used to elevate dopamine. >TMG can also help increase dopamine. >Sage leaf is great for the nervous system and helps to control the Parkinson's tremors.
_Take sage leaf, bupleurum and Tyrosine: mix 5 parts bupleurum, 3 parts tyrosine and one part sage leaf powder. Recommended dose of the mix is 1/2 teaspoon three times daily at least 20 minutes before meals. The mix will provide various benefits such as liver support, memory support and thyroid support. The bupleurum and tyrosine both raise dopamine levels. TMG would also be really helpful since methylation is required for dopamine production. The sage is for the nervous system to help control the palsy.
_There is no definitive test for Parkinson's. A diagnosis is based primarily on symptoms, history, including other things that can cause these symptoms, and simply if the person responds to the medications used to treat Parkinson's.
_The best remedy would be to mix these powders: 5 parts bupleurum powder, 3 parts tyrosine and one part sage leaf powder. Recommended dose of the mix is 1/2 teaspoon three times daily at least 20 minutes before meals.
_Bupleurum & tyrosine are dopamine precursors, which raise dopamine levels. Trimethylglycine (TMG) is a methyl donor that is required for the production of neurotransmitters like dopamine. Recommended dose is 500-1000mg three times daily [maybe with meals]. Magnesium malate is great for elevating brain ATP [for energy].
_An animal study has shown that pantethine can protect against experimentally induced Parkinson’s disease. Pantethine was able to stop the decline in ketones to completely arrest the destruction of dopamine neurons. Pantethine was able to protect nerves from wear and tear. Collectively, these nerve-related studies show that pantethine provides multiple ways to protect and boost the brain. [Here's the complete article: http://www.curezone.org/forums/am.asp?i=1913785 ]
_The best remedy would be to mix these powders:
5 parts bupleurum powder,
3 parts tyrosine and

Recommended dose of the mix is 1/2 teaspoon three times daily
at least 20 minutes before meals.
Magnesium malate 200mg once or twice a day 20 minutes before meal.
Trimethylglycine (TMG) 500-1000mg three times daily [maybe with meals].

__PNEUMONIA, BRONCHITIS

_To clear up lung infections mix equal parts of chaparral, thyme, and horseradish powders. Blend them well then fill some capsules. In one of the empty capsules add 8 drops of pure eucalyptus essential oil. Recommend 1 capsule with the 8 drops of oil 3 times daily with the herb capsules. You will exhale the oils killing any fungus, bacteria, or virus in the lungs. The longest I have ever seen this take for pneumonia or bronchitis is 3 days. Only take it as needed. Remember to stay hydrated to keep the mucous in the lungs fluid so it can be expelled with the pathogens.
_With both acute bronchitis and pneumonia there will usually be phlegm being coughed up with color. Brownish-black indicates bronchitis and yellowish-green indicates pneumonia. Unless he is referring to chronic bronchitis, but they would not give you antibiotics for this. A dry cough can be a few things including an asthmatic cough. Did the doctor do an x-ray? Make sure you staying hydrated as dehydration will make it harder to cough up any phlegm if it is present. Consuming cayenne pepper will also help thin out the mucous as will fenugreek. And an expectorant such as osha' root or horehound will help expel any mucous. Unless there is colored mucous I seriously doubt it is acute bronchitis or pneumonia. And until you are sure what you have knowing how to treat t is going to be difficult.
_And if you have someone who can cup their hands and pound your back around your lungs this will also help to break up the mucous. You can do the same thing on your chest.
_For pheumonia take thyme, chaparral, horseradish, eucalyptus combo capsule a few times a day 20 min before meals. Usually the formula does not take more than 3 days to clear up an infection. Probiotics may stave off pneumonia.

__POLYCYSTIC OVARIAN SYNDROME (PCOS)

- https://www.curezone.org/forums/fm.asp?i=1744673#i
_There are various hormonal changes involved with PCOS, including a drop in progesterone and increased estrogen and testosterone. So the primary focus should be on elevating progesterone and helping the liver to break down the excess estrogen and testosterone.
_I am not a big fan of progesterone creams, especially long-term. But in cases such as PCOS they can be used short-term to help get levels up while allowing time for the herb vitex (chaste tree berry) to kick in. This generally takes about 2 months.
_My write up on hormone balance explains ways to cleanse the liver and aid in excess estrogen break down.
_Other than vitex some herbs I highly recommend include wild yam, licorice root and nettle leaf.
(Elsewhere, Sloane recommends Bitters for Liver Cleansing.)

__POST NASAL DRIP

_For post nasal drip Quercetin capsules work the best. Make sure it is pure quercetin and not the QBC (quercetin, bromelain and vitamin C). They are usually 400 to 500mg and recommended dose is one capsule as needed.

__PREGNANCY ISSUES

_The following nutritional info is from "Truth in Medicine" at
https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Acurezone.com+%22truth+in+medicine%22+pregnant&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8
_The risk of premature labor can be minimized with red raspberry leaf tea throughout the pregnancy to tone and relax the uterus.
_1 cup of the tea 3-4 times a day. Helps to relax uterine muscles to ease birthing and prevent miscarriage.
_Supplementing with magnesium malate or magnesium citrate can also help by relaxing the uterus and can help with preventing preeclampsia.
_Nettle leaf and seaweeds are great sources of silica and other nutrition, and both support the endocrine system. Both are also helpful for digestive disorders and constipation, due to their nutritional value.
_Take digestive bitters at least once a day just before meals (just enough to taste), which are the most important to balance the hormones.
_Alfalfa is also very nutritional, and is the highest herbal source of phytoestorgens to help balance the hormones.
_Maca is also beneficial for the body due to the sterol content, and helps to improve fertility.
_Chaparral and andrographis help prevent infections.
_Limit spices in your diet as well as carrots since these can stimulate uterine contractions. Have a good diet with limited meats and dairy, which have too high estrogen content.
__NURSING
_If you ever need to increase milk production there is also fenugreek seed and goat's rue.
_Nipple stimulation increases bonding, so breast feeding is advisable.

_FERTILITY
https://www.curezone.org/forums/am.asp?i=1862633
_you said andrographis decreases fertility. Is this permanent or only while on the herb?
_It is only temporary while taking the herb. There are only two herbs I have ever seen that can induce permanent infertility in women.
_We plan to start trying to get pregnant in 6 months or so and want to be sure I'm not taking anything to hinder this. Currently I am taking your adrenal, thyroid, and liver tonics and just ordered your flora product. Can you confirm if any herbs in these will affect my future chances and which herbs I should avoid now?
The only formula would be the Live-R-Ight since it has andrographis. But again this only causes temporary infertility. So I recommend stopping it about a month before you try to conceive.
_There will actually be a number of herbs that will need to be avoided once you are pregnant. Nothing in the other two formulas, but you will want to avoid things such as the berberine herbs, juniper berry and many spices as these are uterine stimulants. I would also avoid vitex (chaste tree berry) and wild yam.
_Other than folic acid, what recommendations do you have for vitamins/herbs/supplements prior to trying? Thanks.
_Maca helps increase fertility as does regular grocery store yams. Nettle leaf and alfalfa leaf are great for nutritional support and red raspberry leaf tea can be drunk throughout the pregnancy for nutrition, to prevent miscarriage and to ease the birthing process. To control morning sickness you can sip on small amounts of ginger tea.

Otherwise supplements can be used for a total of 50mg daily. For selenium I recommend 200mcg 3 times daily with meals. Try to find one combined with 2mg copper if possible. Saw palmetto and pygeum are both pretty good, but jiaogulan is more effective. Nettle leaf and root, bee pollen and licorice root are also very good choices.

_Pistachios relieve my urinary flow problems from an enlarged prostate.
_They contain sterols, but they are not the only nuts with sterols. Sterols lock up cholesterol dropping levels that convert to hormones that can stimulate cancer growth. Sterols can also kill cancer cells by binding to cholesterol in cancer cell membranes and removing it basically causing cancer cells to "spill their guts".
_What is the role of zinc in prostate health?
_It helps prevent the conversion of testosterone into the more radical dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which causes prostate enlargement.
_PSA is a useless test.
_Zinc can help with preventing cancer again by reducing DHT formation and by helping to boost the immune system.
_Zinc is great as are sterol sources like jiaogulan, bee pollen and nettle leaf and licorice root (a DHT blocker).

__SSRI
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are notorious for causing mental disturbances including suicidal depression, especially when first starting on them. The problem is that they are often prescribed to people with normal serotonin levels and the excess serotonin leads to the disturbances. So your original problem could be from a lack of some other neurotransmitter. Likely acetylcholine since deficiencies can lead to anxiety.

_Mix equal amounts of chaparral, thyme and horseradish root powders. Put in to capsules. Recommend 2 size '00' capsules 3 times daily at least 20 minutes before meals. If she cannot find all three herbs try to at least get as many as possible.
_In addition get some eucalyptus essential oil. Place 8 to 10 drops in a separate capsule. Recommend 1 capsule of the oil 3 times daily before meals. This is for ADULTS only, not young children as the oil can be toxic in high doses.
_The chaparral kills viruses, bacteria and fungi as well as boosts the immune system. The thyme and horseradish oils are excreted through the lungs, as is the eucalyptus oil. These oils are also extremely effective in killing viruses, bacteria and fungi.
_The longest I have ever seen this formula take to clear up pneumonia or bronchitis is 3 days. It is a good idea to continue for a few days after symptoms disappear to make sure all traces are cleared up.

__RESPIRATORY ISSUES
