When Hippocrates said: “The doctor heals, but nature heals,” he described the natural tendency of the human body to minimize disease and create optimal health. However, as we know, the body sometimes needs a little help. Alternative health care methods can support the physical body in its natural propensity to heal, using very effective means.
In this article, we present strong natural treatments for the three health conditions that often affect children: asthma, head lice and pink eye. Orthopedic doctors and drug conglomerates will not be overly excited by the fact that you know these natural treatments; they have no way of patenting or monetizing these drugs.
Asthma care
Asthma is a serious (if not terrible) disorder in which the airways become inflamed, leading to wheezing, loss of breath and tightness in the chest. About 15 million people in the US suffer from asthma, and as a result of this disorder, there are more than half a million hospitals.
The prevalence of asthma is increasing for every age group. In children, the greatest increase; Over the past ten years, the level of asthma in children has increased by more than 90%. Parents with asthmatic children will find out that the fastest asthma medicine comes from medicine, but there are times when an inhaler is not available for a child.
There are two natural ways to treat asthma attacks, which are related to the calming effect that warm fluid has on the bronchi. First, try some hot soup that can soothe bonce. However, the second agent may be more effective, as it includes a warm liquid with an additional ingredient: caffeine. Coffee or caffeinated tea can open up the airways, similar to how inhalers do, so try this during an asthma episode if there are no medications available.
Pink eye treatment
Until 1938, patentable antibacterial drugs were not developed, so colloidal silver was the main "medicine" for fighting infections in the United States. It is quietly used today as a cleaning agent in water tanks, airlines for cleaning water during flight, and NASA for sterilizing water on the space shuttle. What for? It was found that colloidal silver destroys about 650 viral, bacterial and fungal "beetles".
One independent laboratory conducted research to determine the effectiveness of colloidal silver, produced by a company called Earthborn Products. This silver is applied to both normal and resistant strains of the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus and incubated at 37 degrees Celsius. Staphylococcus cultures were killed in just four minutes! In addition, research at the Upstate Medical Center at Syracuse University (New York) showed that "silver works on a wide range of bacteria without any known side effects ..."
Pink eye (pinkeye) or conjunctivitis is a highly contagious ailment in which the conjunctiva or membrane covering the eye is infected with a virus or a bacterial infection. Despite the harmlessness, the challenge is that infected family members do not pollute those around them. However, this challenge was met with colloidal silver.
Many people successfully treat their pink eyes by applying one or two drops of colloidal silver in the eyes twice a day. In fact, Dr. Evan M. Kansas reported in Science Digest (1978) that he had experienced “instant success” using colloidal silver with immune compromised patients. For example, he was a pink patient who was fully resolved less than six hours after the actual treatment!
Head Lice Treatment
Mom and Dad, if you're tired of “collecting nit,” then pay attention. About ten million people in America suffer from head lice and their eggs or "nits." The head louse lives in human hair rather close to the scalp, where it feeds on human blood. Female lice are about 10 eggs a day, and babies, or nits, are pulled on strands of hair with amazing resistance.
Getting rid of head lice is a three-step process. You must kill all living lice, check and remove all nits, combing and manually collecting the nit, and you must do a thorough job of cleaning the property of the infected person and the home environment.
Dr. Lawrence Schachner of the University of Miami School of Medicine found that he thought he was the best, fastest natural remedy for head lice: petroleum jelly. This medicine does not act by poisoning lice (like prescription drugs), but by suffocating them.
Dr. Schachner recommends sprinkling Vaseline on the baby’s scalp and hair in the evening before bedtime. Then put a bra on the child and let him sleep at night with a cap. By morning, lice and fit. Back side? Children should do repeated shampoos to remove petroleum jelly, so their hair may look oily for a while.
