Danger Chocolate

March 7, 2024 by Jurgen

Chocolate, ancient drink of the Indians of Mexico, provoked mistrust and even panic among the foreigners of Europe.

Physician Juan de Cárdenas proved that chocolate caused flatulence and melancholy, and the foam impeded digestion and provoked terrible sorrows in the heart [sic].

It was also suspected of abetting sin. Bishop Bernardo de Salzar excommunicated the ladies who drank chocolate during mass.

They did not give up the vice … 😉

Cleansing herbal tea blend

January 26, 2024 by Jurgen

The problem with many health regimes is that they require an amount of time and energy available maybe to Nepalese hermits, but not to the ordinary wage earner or homemaker.
flor-essence
See and feel the difference in just 10 days. Glowing skin. Reduced bloating. Improved energy and mood. – As simple as a cup of tea a day!

Why detox? – Think of the body as a finely tuned machine, if we do not feed it with the proper fuel it will under perform. Toxic overload will lead to lack of energy, weight gain, bloating, skin problems, premature ageing and the increased possibility of more long-term complaints.

Flor-Essence does not provide an instant purgative effect; rather with consistent use, its eight ingredients identify, gather and flush toxins out of the body:

  • Burdock Root
  • Sheep Sorrel
  • Slippery Elm Bark
  • Turkish Rhubarb Root
  • Red Clover
  • Blessed Thistle Herb
  • Kelp
  • Watercress

The once-at-bedtime herbal tea blend (Essiac / Flor-Essence) cleanses the body while you sleep.

Fight Colds and Flu Naturally

November 22, 2023 by Jurgen

Many of you will be suffering one of these horrid ailments as the chilly months encroach upon us.

Germs are always around but a strong immune system will take them in its stride. The white blood cells have the ability to detect and destroy bacteria and viruses before they start anything, so it is in everyone’s best interests to see that they have everything they need to function well.

  • Rest – get plenty of sleep.
  • Fluids – water, herbal teas with lemon, honey, cinnamon and ginger.
  • Laughter – your immune system works best when you are happy!
  • Natural vitamin C – salads and fresh fruit might seem unappealing when it is cold but do not abandon fruit and vegetables. Make vegetable soups, stew fruit with warming spices.
  • Echinacea – helps the white blood cells in their task of spotting bugs and of engulfing and destroying them once spotted. A daily maintenance dose can help keep bugs at bay. An increased dose will shorten the duration of colds and the flu.
