Healing Salve - This salve is remarkable and will heal ANYTHING! I have folks use it on everything from bug bites to diaper rash to winter-cracked fingers. I want to share with you my experience. I grabbed a plastic spatula that was too close to the stove and it literally stuck to my little finger and burned it really badly. I immediately put the hand and spatula under cold running water as the spatula was adhered to my hand. I was in so much pain I cannot even describe it. I cleaned the wound and saturated it with Healing Salve. Within minutes, the pain dissipated. I kept a dressing on it with the Healing Salve for several days. I had second degree burns, no doubt, and they healed within about a week. The scars are not noticeable. It was remarkable. Everyone should keep Herb Lore's Healing Salve in their medicine chest. J.W.
Allergies? Breastfeeding and considering antihistamines?
Spring and summer are high-allergy times for many, breastfeeding moms included. The common approach is to take an anti-histimine to help alleviate the symptoms. You may not know, however, that these antihistimines can also decrease or dry up breastmilk! These medications are made to dry up secretions and fluids - it will not differentiate between the different body fluids and will commonly decrease breastmilk production. So keep this in mind if you're thinking of resorting to those anti-histimines!
A helpful and effective alternative is the herb Nettle (also known as Stinging Nettle). Its fine for use while pregnant or breastfeeding, and is highly nutritious. Many people swear by this herb to alleviate their allergy symptoms! Homeopathy is also very effective in alleviating allergies!
