Renew skin lotion from Melaluca cleared my sons Eczema up in 4 days. Amazed the doctors we had a follow up appointment on the 4th day and they were impresed.
Bloating and Trapped wind
A. To treat bloating, we need to support good digestive function. I recommend that you squeeze grapefruit (check if you are taking medication), lemon or apple cider vinegar in a small amount of water upon rising. Sour foods stimulate salivation, digestive enzyme production from the stomach and pancreas and bile flow from the liver, enabling food to broken down efficiently.
This sour stimulus has been lost from our diet. The English began their day with half a grapefruit; the Japanese chewed umeboshi plums and had pickled daikon as a condiment. We must ensure that these wise traditions continue.
Always eat in a relaxed environment and chew food well.
Some people react to certain foods, e.g. wheat, consider an allergy test. Read more about the allergy testing we do at the clinic on my website (under the About section).
Eat cultured yoghurt rich in acidophilus, or purchase a probiotic powder via your natural health practitioner (Natural Ange Ltd). These reinstate the "friendly" bacteria in the gut, to break food down efficiently.
Herbal teas have carminative properties to relieve trapped wind. Also, culinary use of ginger, aniseed and cumin seeds aid the digestive process.
The Natural Ange Herbal Digestive Relief formula is available from my website and is a convenient way to take the herbs mentioned above.
Chamomile tea is a must for every household. We were taught that is was the 'mother of the gut' owing to it's antispasmodic properties for cramps, healing properties for ulcers – the cold tea can be used as a mouthwash for mouth ulcers.
Carminative properties dispel wind or bloating.
It is also a relaxing nervine herb that helps that mind/ gut connection such as 'butterflies in the stomach' or stress induced irritable bowel syndrome.
It promotes a restful sleep – as it soothes the nervous system and is a muscular relaxant. It is one on the main constituents in my herbal Digestive Relief formula and my herbal Sleep Mix available on my website. It is also good for menstrual cramps as a tea, combine it with chopped ginger root for a better effect.
As chamomile essential oil, topical use is beneficial for skin conditions such as dermatitis, eczema and wound healing in general. It is often an ingredient in herbal healing balms.
German chamomile is easy to grow – Chamomilla recutitaor Matricaria Chamomilla. Simply dry the flowers in summer, out of direct sunlight. They are readily available as loose tea or quality organic teabags in the health shop.
Kiwiherb make a pleasant tasting chamomile syrup "Kids Calm" which is easy to administer to babies, children or busy adults!
