Hi Friends,
On your right you will see a new photo I took recently, depicting what I describe as
"12 Miracles" ... Why do I call them miracles? Because they are simple straight forward blessings that God has provided for us, to help us maintain great health. This list did not float down to me from heaven. But it is a hard won list, that has been accumulated over years of trial and error.Most of these items are available at low cost and the only ones that are a little more expensive are still available for less than 20 dollars per bottle in most cities.
Here's my blessed, my very precious and carefully carved list as well as a

"12 Miracles" ... Why do I call them miracles? Because they are simple straight forward blessings that God has provided for us, to help us maintain great health. This list did not float down to me from heaven. But it is a hard won list, that has been accumulated over years of trial and error.Most of these items are available at low cost and the only ones that are a little more expensive are still available for less than 20 dollars per bottle in most cities.
Here's my blessed, my very precious and carefully carved list as well as a
description
of some of their potential benefits and uses:
- Cranberry juice—cranberry juice has been used to work with those who are trying to prevent or deal with bladder infections. Try to get the bottled cranberry juices that contain only cranberry juice and not other added mixtures. Most brands will sell for under $6 per bottle.
- Epsom salt—Epsom salt is available at a very low cost in most bulk stores, pharmacies, grocery stores and even dollar stores.Epsom salts can help draw out toxins out of the body through the skin.
Having Epsom
salts on hand for soaking feet in warm water
is quite
valuable. Some add Epsom salts to their bath
water for
over all body maintenance. Do not take Epsom salt
internally,
it is intended only for external use. Epsom salts can help draw out toxins out
of the body through the skin. You can also soak your
arms or
hands in a warm bath of dissolved Epsom salts and find
relief for
weary muscles or aches and pains.
3.Olive oil—The famous “Mediterranean diet” includes
this staple,
often
referred to as the “healthy oil”. Olive oil has so many
benefits, I
can’t even begin to complete such a list, but a few
benefits are
as follows: olive oil is an unsaturated fat and is great
added to
pasta sauces, to stir fries, salads and any fried item.
Olive oil
can be used freely on the skin and hair to add moisture,
shine and a
healthy glow. Olive oil can be used with a cotton ball,
to remove
makeup. Olive oil can be used to massage tired joints
and stiff
muscles.
4.Coconut
oil--- coconut oil
is a saturated fat, but is considered a
healthy
alternative to butter. Coconut oil can be used as a hair
treatment to
restore shine and relieve dryness of the scalp. Just a
small pea
sized amount of olive oil will treat an entire head of
hair.
Coconut oil can be used freely in the kitchen for frying. It is a
solid and
will become a liquid at warmer temperatures. Many
cosmetic
companies and hair product designers add coconut oil to
their
preparations, as it is proven to be so helpful for the
treatment of
dry skin, hair and nails. You will enjoy coconut oil
immensely if
you use it sparingly. It is a heavy oil,
so just a little
bit goes a
long way.
5.Ginger—Ginger is one of my favorite items
to have on hand in the
kitchen.
Just peeling and chopping three “dice” sized chunks and
boiling in 2
cups of water with a bit of your favorite natural
sweetener, is
a great inexpensive health tonic. You can also use
fresh ginger
as a supplement, by peeling and chopping
just bits of
raw ginger and swallowing with some
water. Be
sure to chop it small enough that you can swallow it
easily
without discomfort. Ginger can stimulate a sluggish
digestive
system and bring about a boost in energy. Raw ginger
revs up the
immune system and re-energizes the skin.
beneficial
qualities of garlic. If you find the
scent of raw garlic to
be too
overpowering, you can use deodorized garlic supplements purchased from your
favorite health store. Fans of garlic consume it in its
raw state by
peeling it down to a small enough size to be able to
swallow it
like a vitamin with water. Garlic is known as a natural
antibiotic
and helpful for the strengthening of the immune system
and
cleansing of the blood. It seems to assist humans in fighting
off many
forms of viruses, and bacteria.
7.Echinacea. This herb is made from a popular
perennial flower also
known as the
cone flower. People consume it in vitamin pill form
or in a
liquid tincture. It works with your immune system to
prevent the
spread of colds and flu’s and shortens the duration
for those
already battling a cold.
8.Water—don’t chuckle. It’s often the
simplest of remedies that are
the most
effective. Just forcing yourself to drink at least 500 ml of
room
temperature clean tap water per day can help heal a tired
digestive
system and assist your body in flushing out any toxins
that need to
be expelled from the body. Those who regularly
drink water,
find almost instant improvement in the texture and
vitality of
their skin.
9.Carrots. Yes the humble carrot. Readily
available in most grocery
stores and
priced well within most people’s budgets, we would do
well to
consume carrots more often. The orange hue of carrots
reveals that
they contain an ingredient that has been
reported to
improve vision and overall improved health. It is great
to consume
carrots raw as well as cooked or in stir fries.
10.Apples- One does not need to spend a lot of
money to benefit
from the
wonders of apples. Particularly when apples are at their
peak harvest
time, one can find apples for sale for even less than
one dollar
per pound. Apples, when eaten raw, stimulate the
metabolism
and energize.
11.Parsley- The wonder of this little green
specimen is manifold.
Parsley has
been show to be a natural deodorizer to freshen
breath and
body scent. Add fresh or bits of frozen parsley to
smoothies or
other raw drinks to maximize the benefits. Parsley is
easily added
to soups, stews and stir fries with great taste and
added health
benefits.
12.Vitamin B complex. This
supplement is highly recommended for
women,
particularly during their years of menstruation. Vitamin B
complex has
been reported to calm the nerves and prevent the
incidence of
yeast infections. Take only as directed by a licensed
medical
professional and always read and follow the labels.
