Home health remedies made with plants, herbs and natural elements can do a lot for you. Contrary to aggressive chemical drugs their action is mild and beneficial for your body.

I am in danger, you are in danger, the whole humanity is in danger. While our health .... geez ... our survival is mortgaged, we keep ignoring that we are colonized by the pharmaceutical industry and our health system. While more and more drugs are being developped, we have never suffered so much from cardiac, neurological, mental and immune support diseases.

We continue to ask our governments to finance the cost of this major degradation of our health condition. We continue to push medical spending through the roof by using and consuming presciption drugs that are toxic to our system and can cause severe side effects. Perhaps, we should not accept to be so dependent of products developped by the pharmaceutical companies and financed by governments. Maybe ... we should conquer our independance and recover our health condition through home health remedies.

Let me take you with me and bring you to the .... kitchen. Fruits, vegetables, herbs, plants and other natural elements can form your army of home health remedies and they can help you win the war for enhanced wellness and better health. Don't wait tomorrow, start today !! Don't think I am "green" or vegetarian. I just think we should nourish our body with essential nutrients and reduce the damages caused by toxins from drugs, processed food and polluted water. Redefine the balance between the "good" and the "bad".

Only your will and desire to change the way you treat your body can make a difference. Just think of producers of canned food, alcohol, tobacco and precriptions or over-the-counter drugs. Why are they getting richer while our health is getting poorer ? We are told that processed products are good while they are actually toxic. Consumers are duped and the day they start asking for more and better, non-toxic products will manufacturers react. The same goes for pharmaceutical companies : if we demand more natural home health remedies, only then, will the production of toxic drugs go down and medications proposed become truly beneficial for our health.

While we should start a wave of "new" demands, we already have numerous home health remedies readily available. Combined with a healthy diet and appropriate physical activity they can treat certain conditions such as constipation, toothache, sore throat, hemorrhoids, colds, cough, dry hair, heartburn, etc.

We have put together a collection of free home remedies (see under the left navigation bar). To obtain good results those recipes must be prepared accurately and the remedies taken daily during the period of the treatment. They are mainly composed of herbs and plants that will provide their full healing action.

How to prepare these Home Health Remedies :

- Prepare them in non-metallic heat-resistant pots

- Use the right quantity indicated

- Prepare them one or two nights before the daily intake; let rest in the pot for better results

- Each condition requires a 3-week treatment. Then stop for one week and evaluate the results

- Several home health remedies are proposed for the same condition. You can vary the recipes to reduce the risk of dependance

- Home remedies are not "magical" treatments. Evaluate the results and determine if they are working well for you

- Plants can be stored for up to one year; blends prepared should be kept in a cool place

We realize that preparing home health remedies is not always practical. Time and budget constraints may make it difficult. But they are part of a "package" to improve your health that should also include a balanced diet, exercise and health supplements.
