CLEANSING AND
DE-TOXING
THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT THING THAT MOST LYME & AUTO IMMUNE
FOLKS IGNORE OR DON’T KNOW TO DO FOR THEMSELVES!
CLEANSING AND DE-TOXING
This is vitality necessary for all
Lyme & Auto Immune Patients.
I can not stress the importance of detoxing on a regular basis. Many
of us who are dealing with Lyme and other chronic diseases take all
kinds of medications or herbs to help us deal with our symptoms,
some for years! These
 medicines are designed to kill off the
pathogens attacking the body. Well once you kill them where do they
go? How do they get out do the body? The horrible ‘die-off or herx’
you deal with is as result of killing these things off and the die
off remaining in the body. The carcasses of these things in your
body are very toxic.
The die-off that remains in your body can cause you to feel as sick
as the pathogens themselves! When they die they let off a toxic gas
that can get into your blood system and make you feel just lousy.
Yet, I very seldom ever hear of anyone talking about detoxing and
cleaning out our organs from all the die off, medications, and other
waste. On top of that many Lyme patients deal with chronic
constipation. This is a very serious condition, especially when you
are taking products to kill off pathogens. You kill them and they do
not exit the body quickly. This is dangerous and unhealthy!
Here are the suggestions I give to all of my clients.
These are things I do for myself.
1st. I suggest everyone do a regular colon cleanse. It is vitality
necessary for your healing and recovery. I suggest a thorough colon
cleanse at least every 6 months. If you have a chronic constipation
issue you may need to do a
colon cleanse every 3 months. I suggest a gentle colon cleanse.
Harsh is not necessary here. I sell a very gentle and effective
colon cleanse.
2nd. You may want to consider doing a kidney cleanse and flush at
lest once per year. Antibiotic’s, pain killers, as well as other
medications can be very hard on the kidneys. Flushing them out to
help the Kidneys rejuvenate and heal is very important. I offer the
perfect products to rejuvenate and cleanse the kidneys.
3rd. A good Liver Cleanse and Flush is also very important. It also
takes a lot of abuse from the disease and all the medications. Your
liver needs as much support and help as you can give it. You take
care of your liver and your liver will take care of you!
I offer a 5-Herb Tea that is very gentle, cleansing and good for the
liver and is effective at cleansing the blood as well.
4th. A Lymph drainage will be very beneficial for you. Your Lymph
system is the garbage collector of your body. If it is blocked or
not flowing correctly it can not take out the garbage that is
created when you kill of bacteria, parasites, etc. So it is very
important that your drinking lots of water to help keep the lymph
fluids flowing and assisting your lymphatic system with getting out
the trash and keeping you running smooth and have energy. Exercise,
Yoga, etc can also help keep the lymph system moving.
I am very proud to offer one of the most effective Lymph drainage
cleanse available.
COLOSAN COLON CLEANSE
*These statements have not been evaluated by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration. This product is not intended to prevent, cure, or
treat any disease.
Jecobie’s experience with Colosan: This is my favorite colon cleanse
out of all I have used or sold over my career. It is gentle,
thorough, and very healing. This one is a MUST if you are really
serious about your health!
One primary goal you MUST have is proper colon hygiene. The
cleansing of the digestive tract is a logical place from which to
embark on a healthful regimen. Ask any contractor- you have to clean
up before you repair and rebuild. The same concept applies to well
being and rejuvenation.
Eliminate built up toxins before you provide the body with what it
needs to restore well being.
There is no better way to clean the colon than with oxygen since
digestion is known to be a process of oxidation. By introducing
oxygen into the intestines and the colon, one can assist the process
of complete digestion as well as oxidizing undigested material.
Colosan should be used as a first step in any health regimen. This
will help to prevent the usual Hoxsey reaction, healing crisis or
detox reaction that individuals undertaking a cleansing program will
frequently encounter.
Colosan does dramatically improve absorption of nutrients by
cleaning the surfaces of the intestines. Individuals that need to
gain weight or have difficulty maintaining their weight because of
malabsorption problems benefit greatly.
Colosan Practitioners familiar with natural healing are generally
overjoyed to learn about this valuable tool for avoiding these
unpleasant reactions. It is very logical to clean out the organs of
elimination prior to attempting to detoxify the body.
This way the body can eliminate the toxins more readily rather that
have them stirred up, floating around and creating complications.
Common symptoms of a healing crisis are nausea, headaches,
tiredness, or pain in the liver and kidneys. Colosan makes this
unpleasantry a thing of the past.
Many colon therapist love Colosan because it enables them to clean
the entire 21 feet of the digestive tract as well as loosening the
impacted material in the lower colon. By giving Colosan to their
patients prior to the colonic they can effect a more thorough
cleanse.
This creates very satisfied, happy clients. The goal is to clear the
small intestines and colon of impacted material and improve their
functions of assimilation, absorption and elimination. This is an
important first step in establishing good health. The average person
has six to twelve pounds of putrefacation rotting away in their gut.
Your body encases this muck in mucus to keep itself from being
poisoned. This fecal fortress is a home base for parasites, germs,
bacteria and viruses to multiply in and organize their attacks on
your body. By eliminating their home base you can prevent pathogens
from getting a toe hold on your system and help to prevent
recurrences of annoying bugs.
ASPARAGUS TEA KIDNEY FLUSH

BREAKSTONE LIVER &
KIDNEY RESCUE
*These statements have not been evaluated by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration. This product is not intended to prevent, cure, or
treat any disease.
Promotes optimal liver, kidney and gall bladder function
Gall stones and kidney stones are a major health problem in the
United States . In fact, 20,000,000 in the U.S. suffer from gall
stones and 600,000 are treated by medical doctors each year for this
condition. With the recent introduction of a very well known Amazon
rainforest plant, Break-Stone (Chanca Piedra), health care
practitioners have acquired a powerful plant ally in helping their
patients to maintain optimal kidney, gall bladder, liver, and
bladder health. Chanca Piedra is a composite name, "chanca" meaning
"to break" in Quechua and "piedra" meaning "stone" in Spanish. It is
the popular name given to several small shrub-like plants in the
Phyllanthus genus (botanical family Euphorbiaceae), including
Phyllanthus niruri, and Phyllanthus stipulatis. These two species
have the same medicinal effects and look identical, except for their
seeds, by which the botanist can tell them apart. A third species,
Phyllanthus amarus, has been considered identical (perhaps not a
different species at all) to Phyllanthus niruri. These species of
Phyllanthus have been proven in scientific research to have
antihepatotoxic, antispasmodic, antiviral, bactericidal, febrifugal,
and hypoglycemic activity.
Traditional Uses
Chanca Piedra got its name because one of the outstanding qualities
of this herb, according to the therapeutic herbal tradition of Peru,
where knowledge of rainforest remedies spread to Andean
civilizations, including the Incas, is to break up and expel both
kidney stones, and gall stones. It is believed to help stimulate the
production
of bile and to promote healthy liver and gall bladder function. The
plant is shredded and boiled and then lemon juice is added as a
tonic for the liver (taken in small amounts four times daily). It is
also traditionally used to clear obstructions throughout the various
internal organs of the body by promoting the elimination of mucous
and stones.
In different areas of South America , Chanca Piedra is used to treat
a wide variety of conditions. It is used to treat edema and excess
uric acid, as well as to treat stones of the gall bladder, kidney,
and bladder. In some areas, it is used to treat malaria, typhoid
fever, flu, colds, constipation, dysentery, or stomachache. It is
also used there, for inflammation of the bowels (IBS), pimples,
diabetes, and ulcers.Chanca Piedra has also traditionally been used
for diabetes, prostate disorders, asthma, fever, tumors, bladder
infections, as a diuretic, to remove excess uric acid (as in gout),
for painful joints, jaundice, indigestion, constipation, vaginitis,
viruses of the reproductive tract, proctitis, poor circulation,
excessive phlegm, bronchitis, and coughs. It is also considered an
anti-spasmodic and muscle relaxant, specific to the urinary tract
system.

Traditionally it is also used as an anodyne (pain reliever), apertif
(appetite stimulator), a digestive, carminative (helps gas to be
expelled from stomach and intestines), and vermifuge (expels worms
and other parasites from the intestinal tract), diuretic, and
emmenagogue (stimulates menstrual flow).
5-HERB TEA
*These statements have not been evaluated by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration. This product is not intended to prevent, cure, or
treat any disease.
Jecobie’s Comments: This is a wonderful Herbal formula! I know folks
that drink 2-3 oz daily for prevention, and have for years. I
recommend it for a all around cleansing tonic for the Liver, Blood,
Lymphatic system, and immune boost. It has an incredible history as
the formula has been used with cancer patients. Dandelion Root has
been added to the formula to give it more of a Liver tonic benefit.
So I call it 5-Herb Tea. Doing this once a year will benefit
everyone very much. Chronically ill would benefit by taking this
more often. Highly recommended to give a wonderful cleansing treat
to many of your major organs.
ESSIAC - A BRIEF HISTORY Essiac is the name of nurse Rene CAISSE
spelled backwards.
A Canadian nurse named Rene Caisse first discovered this amazing
herbal formula when one of the patients in the hospital where she
worked was cured of cancer. The year was 1922! The patient had
received the herbal preparation from an Ojibway herbalist. She began
to experiment with the 4-HERB formula and found it to be very
effective in helping many ailments including cancer. So startling
were her results that the Ontario government of Canada became
involved. By 1938, Essiac came within three votes of being legalized
by the Ontario government as a treatment for terminal cancer
patients. Unfortunately her work was destroyed and it took years to
surface again.
BURDOCK ROOT
Burdock is a root that is found in Europe in Asia. It has many
medicinal qualities and has been used in many herbal remedies. The
root is sweet to the taste and has a gummy consistency.
Traditionally, burdock has been used as a remedy for measles,
arthritis, tonsillitis, viruses like colds, throat pain, and as a
diuretic. In modern times, burdock is also used in oncology and to
treat many other serious health problems.
Historical Uses of Burdock Root
Burdock root has often been used to purify the blood by removing
toxins that can build up in blood. It can be taken orally or used
topically as a remedy for skin disorders. Also, burdock root can be
a diuretic or soothe aching joints. Traditional Chinese healers used
burdock root in combination with other plants to make cures for
colds, measles, throat pain, and tonsillitis. Burdock root was also
popular in Japan as a source of vitamins and other nutrients. In
modern times, burdock root has been employed in the treatment of
certain cancers. However, this use of burdock root still needs to be
systematically tested.
Historically, the seeds of the burdock plants were compressed to
make a mixture that was effective in cleansing the bloodstream,
easing pain from arthritis, and treating gout, rheumatism, ulcers,
acne, eczema, and psoriasis. Its cancer-curing properties were also
utilized in Russia and India. The Chinese used it as an aphrodisiac,
and found it effective in treating barrenness and impotence.
SHEEP SORREL
Background: Sheep's sorrel has been used in Native American medicine
as an anti-cancer plant. It is an ingredient in essiac, the name of
the concoction that is used. While it's been used for this purpose
for many years, scientific evidence has yet to prove its efficacy in
fighting cancer.
Sheep's sorrell is also used as a diuretic and laxative. It's
especially good for use long-term to treat chronic bowel problems.
A naturopath, lecturing on the Sunshine Coast, spoke about how
valuable sheep sorrel can be in our daily lives. He said, sheep
sorrel was one of the strongest antioxidant herbs we can use
regularly, to benefit our health. And why are antioxidants so
important? They have the ability to zap out free radicals caused by
foods, pollutants, and stress, and provide a strong line of defense
for the immune system.
TURKEY RHUBARB
A digestive stimulant & laxative.Turkey rhubarb has been used as a
purgative for at least 2,000 years. Its used was recorded in the
Chinese medical text Divine HusbandmanÍs.
Turkey Rhubarb was originally imported from Europe to treat
constipation, where its use as a laxative was the standard.
Like buckthorn, cascara sagrada, frangula, and senna, turkey rhubarb
encourages bowel movement by inhibiting the smooth muscles that
retain stool and stimulating the smooth muscles that push stool
through the intestine. The herb doesn’t work unless the sennosides
in the herb are transformed into rheinanthrones by beneficial
bacteria in the colon. Rhubarb is more appropriate than senna,
however, when irregularity follows treatment with antibiotics; it is
less dependent on the symbiotic bacteria of the colon.
Chinese physicians today use rhubarb root teas to treat stubborn
infections of the skin caused by Staphylococcus aureus. A powder of
rhubarb root and licorice can be made into a plaster to treat boils
and furuncles.
SLIPPERY ELM
The herb's tannins are astringent, making slippery elm ideal to
soothe inflammations, reduce swelling, and heal damaged tissues.
Slippery elm helps heal internal mucosal tissues, such as the
stomach, vagina, and esophagus. It is often recommended as a
restorative herb for people who suffer from prolonged flu, stomach
upset, chronic indigestion, and resulting malnutrition. You can use
slippery elm to soothe ulcers and stomach inflammation, irritated
intestines, vaginal inflammation, sore throat, coughs, and a hoarse
voice.
DANDELION ROOT
The leaves of the plant are very nutrient-rich, and so they make
good supplements for women who are pregnant or elderly women.
Dandelion can also be used as a gentle diuretic and can decrease
serum cholesterol in some people. The root can be an appetite
stimulant and it can treat some digestive disorders. Today, many
herbal doctors use dandelion to purify the liver and gallbladder of
toxins. Research indicates that dandelions can treat pneumonia,
bronchitis, and other respiratory disorders. Dandelion can improve
general health, and is beneficial to the kidneys, pancreas, spleen,
stomach, and other organs. Dandelion is also recommended for the
treatment of tinnitus, tonsillitis, osteoporosis, abscesses, anemia,
boils, mammary tumors, cirrhosis, water retention, hepatitis,
jaundice, rheumatism, and warts. Dandelion may also be effective in
eliminating or averting age spots. Some people also use toasted
dandelion root as a healthier alternative to coffee.
