Calendula Salve
by
Master Herbalist Jared Tropple
This was sent to me
"Thank You Friend"
1/4 cup flowers
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/8 cup of beeswax.
40 drops of essential oils (I would
add Lavender)
Calendula has been used in
countless salves as a primary
ingredient for skin rashes, diaper
rashes, minor cuts, chapped lips,
and minor burns. A strong tea
made from the flowers makes an
excellent foot soak for athlete’s foot,
a facial wash for acne, or a mouth
wash for canker sores.
To make a Calendula Salve
1/4 cup of flowers
1/2 cup of extra virgin olive oil
1/8 cup of beeswax.
40 drops of essential oils (I would
add Lavender)
First make an infused oil by
covering the 1/4 cup of flowers in
1/2 cup of extra virgin olive oil in a
closed jar for at least two weeks.
After two weeks the oil should have
turned a darker yellowish color.
Strain off the flowers through a
muslin cloth and pour oil into a
stainless steel or pyrex pot. Heat oil
on low and grate about 1/8 cup of
beeswax. After it has melted take
off heat and add 40 drops of
essential oils (I would add
Lavender). Pour into the jar you
intend to keep the salve in and
store in a dark, dry place. This
salve should last at least a year if
not longer if stored properly

Urinary Tract Infections
This was sent to me
"Thank You Friend"
The lemon juice, baking soda When
a person is having a lot of pain, I
recommend taking it about 3 times
the first day relief should be felt in a
short time, and should be drinking a
lot of clean water.
I've shared this with a lot of people
and they say they have quick results.
Folk Remedy as follows:
------------------------------------------
Each time a person should take :
3 Tbsp. Real-Lemon Juice
1 tsp. Baking Soda
1 cup distilled water
mix well .
Note:
Needs to be mixed in a tall glass as
it will foam.
It should also be made “fresh” each
time it is taken.
First, it is important to understand
that urinary tract infections will most
likely happen if your diet is not
great. Be sure you are eating a lot
of fresh fruits and vegetables
because they are full of powerful
antioxidants that will help you keep
from getting an infection, or if you
have an infection it will help you
fight it.
You should also take some herbal
formulas that Dr. Christopher put
together. The first one is his
Kidney Formula (two capsules
three times a day) and Cranactin
(one capsule three times a day).
Next, be sure your hygiene is very
good (bath or shower daily).
You don’t want antibiotics – they will
prolong the problem.
Garlic and onions will help to kill the
infection as well.
Finally, be sure you are only
wearing natural fibers (such as
cotton).
Following this program should clear
a urinary tract infection up in a few
days.
One of our readers, Sally, heard
that we were going to do this article
and sent this to us:
“This is remedy that should be
added to the urinary track article. It
is a folk remedy that has been
around for ages and it truly works.
“Relief will occur very quickly. It
can be taken more than once
the first day, and once a week
until completely well.”

Migraine headaches
"peppermint tea and peppermint oil"
what a life saver.
Not being a person who trusted the
medical profession, I knew there had to
be an answer that wouldn’t lie with
drugs that couldn’t address the real
cause of the pain.
I kept reading nutritional articles and
magazines and began to think these
debilitating headaches might be
caused by allergies.
Meanwhile, my best friend, who also
had as many headaches as I did, tried
to convince me that the medicine her
doctor had given her was the answer.
We talked and commiserated with each
other glad to know that someone else
really understood how painful these
headaches were. But I just couldn’t
justify that the first side effect from her
prescription medicine was “headache.”
I thought that was what we were trying
to get rid of.
I kept on journaling and noticed that I
did have more control over the
frequency of my headaches if I
watched what I ate. I also did better if I
stayed out of the wind. Feeling like I
was getting on top of this problem, I
asked my friend if she would be
interested in doing some detective
work into her headaches. She said no
because she knew her doctor was
taking good care of her and doing
what should be done.
