When we have skin problems, we tend to run to the doctor for something to fix those problems. And yet, does this really do any good? Rarely. As a rule, skin problems are caused by internal issues, rather than external. Some will be external, such as poison ivy or spider bites. But most, like dry or cracked skin, most rashes, moles, spots, etc, are caused by internal issues.
So what does one do for these problems? Quite probably, the best thing you can do, and also quite probably the least expensive, is to cleanse the body. I'm not talking about going down to your local drug store and picking up a 3 day cleanse. Those won't do the job. What you will need is a real cleanse. Something without chemicals. So what works?
There are many valuable methods of cleansing the insides of the body, so that what is causing the skin issues goes away. One is the Stanley Burroughs Master Cleanse; a phenomenal tool in its own right. This is a modifed lemon/water fast. Ideally, you would want to do this fast for a minimum of 3 days at a time, and preferably longer. If that doesn't work for you, a one day fast each week can give some pretty decent results.
There is a Stanley Burroughs Master Cleanse booklet on the market, which in my opinion, may have outsold the majority of books ever published. Last I checked, the cost was around $7. I suggest getting the booklet, which is sold in most health food stores and online, even if you do not plan on using that cleanse at this time. Having it in your house will help you do a cleanse, if you keep it in a place where it can readily be seen.
Herb products such as Chlorella, French Green Clay, or Bentonite Clay, also help in cleansing the body, and Milk Thistle helps to cleanse the liver, which, ultimately, is overtaxed anyway if you have skin problems.
The clays would be best taken internally.
If you are wondering why I have said the problem is on the inside of your body, rather than the outside, it is because the skin is fed by what you intake. Sure, you may be around household chemicals which will cause issues. You may be allergic to the sun, which can cause issues. You may have rubbed up against some Canadian Thistle, or some Nettles, which will cause issues. And those would be treated better by outside means, rather than inside. A simply mud pack for the thistle and Nettles works. There are numerous fresh herbs which will help the other issues, such as fresh basil.
If the problem is sunburn, the best method of subduing that burn and the pain along with it, is using a therapeutic quality essential oil. That of Lavender. If you put a few drops of lavender in a spray bottle with non-chlorinated or flouridated water, then spray the affected area several times until the burn is gone, you will probably have no symptoms of sunburn whatsoever when all is said and done. I have used lavender many times for this. It always has worked, as long as it is therapeutic quality lavender.
Please, always be sure your aromatherapy is genuine therapeutic quality. Most on the market is not. The aromatherapies in the links in this blog are independently certified therapeutic.

Did You Know?
“If you based your diet on foods advertised on TV, you’d consume 20 and 25 times the recommended amounts of fat and sugar and less than half of the suggested servings of fruits, vegetables, and dairy products.”
~Dr. Julian Whitaker’s Health & Healing
August 2010
“Researchers from London’s Imperial College found that if the innermost layer of cells at branches and bends of arteries lack the active form of a protective protein called Nrf2, the arteries are prone to inflammation and disease. However, exposure to ‘the natural compound sulforaphane reduced inflammation at the high-risk areas by switching on Nrf2,’ explained Paul Evans, thus restoring the cells’ ability to protect themselves. Sulforaphane is found most heavily in broccoli, but also in other cruciferous vegetables such as cauliflower, cabbage, and Brussels sprouts.”
~Acres U.S.A., December 2009
***Flea, Tick, and Insect Repellent***
The recipe “One gallon distilled or pure water, four heaping tablespoons organic dried catnip, 2 ½ tablespoons organic neem oil, 2 teaspoons Young Living Thieves Household Cleaner or Young Living Bath Gel Base, 80 drops Young Living Purification oil, 80 drops Young Living Lemongrass oil, 40 drops Young Living Idaho Tansy oil, 40 drops Young Living Palo Santo oil, 40 drops Young Living Ocotea or Basil oil, 20 drops Young Living Peppermint oil (optional for high temperatures). Steep the catnip in the gallon of water for 20 – 30 minutes. Cool to room temperature. Strain if needed. Add all remaining ingredients into Thieves Household Cleaner or Bath Gel Base. Then mix together, and put into spray bottles. Use as needed.” You can cut in half or quarter if you need less.

Childhood Diseases
What would you do if your child developed an issue such as Autism? Would you go to your doctor for help by using drugs, or try to ignore it, or do whatever you could to research and find a workable answer?
Since we know from Japan's experience, that Autism is largely a result of the DPT vaccine, we know that because this vaccine, like potentially all of them, have heavy metals, and other toxins in them, that the body must be detoxed in order to have any real improvement. Using drugs, no matter how well intended the doctor is, will only worse the child's condition. Why? Because all drugs are nothing more than a pill full of chemicals. Chemicals never have and never will get rid of any disease. They are a direct cause of disease and other health issues.
There is more than one way to approach this condition, but for most people, I would suggest initiating a detox program for your child. While this may be a task that proves to be less than simple, using it will give benefit. One of your best detox tools is Chlorella. All raw foods will help. The herb Cilantro also is helpful here. Certain therapeutic essential oils may also be of benefit, such as Idaho Balsam Fir and Coriander, provided they are therapeutic quality. Perhaps the best method of using essential oils for this is on the bottom of the feet. French Green, or Bentonite Clay, are also very valuable in removing toxins from the body. I have used all these on myself with great success. Not for Autism, but for heavy metals, particularly mercury, which is widely used in vaccines. Yes Virginia, it is still in them. When people tell you it has been taken out, realize that only the name has been removed, or changed.
Simply getting your child to bathe in the bathtub with French Green Clay or Bentonite can have a good effect. Will need to be done more than once of course. And the problem may never completely go away, due to the damage the brain has received. But...it can be helped.
Certified therapeutic quality aromatherapy can be found on my site here.

A Lesson In Aromatherapy
Essential Oils and Cancer: A Review of Published Scientific Studies
Beyond Complementary Therapies - Research Indicates Essential Oils have Targeted Anticancer Properties
Moving from Aromatherapy to Aroma-Medicine
The practice of 'aroma medicine', rather than the somewhat more vague 'aromatherapy', is making very strong gains in the United States. The primary reasons are twofold: Many individuals have become completely disenchanted with our current conventional medical system. We're paying HUGE amounts of money for very questionable therapies -- with many medicines having threatening health warnings (are these making us sicker while making us 'better'?) accompanying their high price tags. At the same time, people are realizing the value of 'traditional' medicines may be far greater than they've been lead to believe. That the healing power available in properly prescribed and employed natural medicines have the potential to not only alleviate the symptoms of an illness, but move the body to an equilibrium of long term health.
The Medical Uses of Essential Oils
Research into the area of medicinal applications of essential oils has been significant in recent years. Many oils have been proven to have significant antiviral, antibacterial and antifungal action. Now, the body of evidence of essential oils being strongly anti-tumorial, with specific anti-cancer action is growing, too. A search of Pub Med (www.pubmed.gov) the National Institute of Health's online research database produces 391 results for the search 'essential oils cancer' and 444 results for 'essential oil tumor'. MANY of the studies show a direct correlation in tumor and cancer cell line eradication with the use of essential oils. A great many have conclusions that indicate the studies results warrant further investigation of essential oils for the development of accepted therapies. Here's a review of some very promising results:
Frankincense Essential Oil Targets Cancer Cells
A study in the journal BioMed Central journal of Complementary and Alternative Medicine, March 2009, titled: "Frankincense oil derived from Boswellia carteri induces tumor cell specific cytotoxicity" concludes with: "Frankincense oil appears to distinguish cancerous from normal bladder cells and suppress cancer cell viability. Microarray and bioinformatics analysis proposed multiple pathways that can be activated by frankincense oil to induce bladder cancer cell death. Frankincense oil might represent an alternative intravesical agent for bladder cancer treatment." ...while a bit technical, this is very, very promising -- essentially saying that this easily obtained, inexpensive, NON-TOXIC natural compound can eradicate cancer cells without harming normal, healthy cells in the same organ. Frankincense has a long, long history of medicinal use, and searching for 'frankincense cancer' produces 30 results just for this material. If choosing an essential oil of Frankincense, the 'carteri' species has been the subject of most research, with cold-process Carbon Dioxide distilled oils considered the most therapeutic.
Lemongrass Essential Oil Induces Cancer Cell Death
Lemongrass, after Frankincense, may next most commonly researched essential oil for anti-cancer activity. In the May 2009 journal of Chemico-Biological Interactions, researchers tested Lemongrass essential oil against 12 human cancer cell lines. Colon cancer and neuron cancer cell lines were found most susceptible to the essential oil. The study concluded: "Our results indicate that the oil has a promising anticancer activity and causes loss in tumor cell viability by activating the apoptotic process as identified by electron microscopy." This indicates that Lemongrass may induce natural cell death of cancer cells (apoptotic process), a process that is inherently dysfunctional in cancer cells.
Sweet Linalool for Liver Cancer
Linalool is a very common essential oil constituent. Essential oils are naturally made up of many individual chemical constituents, and linalool is a sweet, relaxing aromatic found in many floral and sweeter spice essential oils. Linalool itself, separated from the essential oil of Coriander (Cilantro seeds) was the subject of research published in the June 2009 issue of the journal of Chemico-Biological interactions. Linalool was found to completely eradicate the HepG2 liver cancer cell line in VERY low concentrations. Linalool has a great many other effects, having been shown to lower anxiety and even significantly improve sleep. And now it even has anti-cancer effects! So even if one is noted directly targeting cancer, but using aromatherapy in a more 'casual' application, there may be important protective effects occurring at the same time.
Skin cancer is a major concern for many folks, and a series of studies have shown Sandalwood to be effective at preventing tumor development. Alpha-santalol, a component also shown to have anti-anxiety and sleep enhancing action, may be the constituent to which most of these effects may be attributed. This is fortunate, as Sandalwood from India is becoming more rare and expensive, though Sandalwood from Australia and other South Pacific islands is still readily available. A study published in the European Journal of Cancer Prevention, a formula used for containing just 5% Sandalwood essential oil used before exposure to toxins significantly reduced the formation of skin cancer tumors. A study published in January 2008 in the Journal of Anitcancer Research showed a significant reduction in tumor development in skin exposed to UVB radiation -- Sandalwood would make an excellent addition to a pre-sun body or face care formula.
The Powerful Protection of Spice Oils
Components of Thyme and Oregano essential oils have been shown to actually protect human DNA strands from breaking when exposed to extreme oxidative stress. DNA damage is a leading cause of cancer development, as this can lead to an abnormal cell life cycle, essentially turning off the process of natural cell death. Carvacrol and Thymol were singled out in a study by Slovakian researchers in 2007, though they also note that other components of these oils may have chemoprotective effects as well. Other spice essential oils that have demonstrated cancer preventative effects include Ginger, Tumeric, Basil, Garlic and Sage.
Essential Oils Offer Immune System Support
Beyond the direct effects on tumor cells, essential oils have been shown to positively effect the immune system on a chemical level. They can enhance the activity of white blood cells, making them more efficient and removing foreign material and microbes from the body. This would likely result in more effective cancer outcomes. Further, there's the psychological component of any disease, and many essential oils have demonstrated anti-stress activity in scientific investigations.
Essential Oils as Anti Cancer Agents for the Future
So, like many plant medicines, essential oils work on a number of levels for many diseases, with cancer being one of them. While its important to recognize that essential oil use is in-fact contra-indicated during chemotherapy (as they may reduce the cytotoxic effects of the treatment), they can certainly be an integral part of any cancer preventative protocol. For any application where an individual has already been diagnosed with the illness, it is important to check with their physician to ensure essential oils and aroma-medicine is an appropriate choice. The overall picture is very bright for the use of essential oils in cancer treatment, and further investigation is certainly warranted by the scientific and medical communities for the development of effective medical protocols for this profoundly life-altering condition.
This information was gleaned from a site that sells therapeutic quality aromatherapy, which is here.
To make matters even more interesting, please watch this 10 minute video. This shows you just how far the FDA is willing to go to silence those who genuinely help people. And why? Because the FDA is partially paid, and operated, by the drug cartel. The FDA and the drug companies stand to lose tens of BILLIONS of dollars every year, should healing become the norm. Drugs cannot heal. If you have questions on that last sentence, ask me to explain it. I'll explain it so even the FDA and a Grand Jury can understand it. It is simple, common sense. The use of any pharmaceutical drug lacks common sense in working to heal.

Wear Colognes or Perfumes? Sure You Really Want To?
Everyday colognes and perfumes are nothing but chemicals with sometimes a little water added. Since we know chemicals cause disease, should this really be in your diet? When I say diet, most anything liquid with the possible exception of water on your skin penetrates into every cell of your body.
I checked out some colognes and found some very disturbing, actually, alarming information. The MSDS sheet for the fourth ingredient in the cologne named CHAPS is very harmful. This is the ingredient list for CHAPS: Ingredients
Sd Alcohol 39-C, Water, Fragrance, Benzophenone-2, Fd&c Yellow No. 5, Fd&c Red No. 40, Fd&c Blue No. 1-76.
The Benzophenone-2 is said to harm the thyroid, not just possibly, but does. It is also said to cause confusion, mental disorientation, loss of memory, and much more that you can read here.
I suggest, that if you want or need something to cause you to smell better, get some certified therapeutic aromatherapy. Not only does therapeutic quality smell good, it is also good for you(the fda has not endorsed this statement, and this statement in no way is implying mitigation or cure of disease. They are simply tools). The company that distills these essential oils uses zero chemicals, even to clean the distillers. They use a proprietary method of ultrasound for cleaning, which is very effective.

Health Care In The USA
Health care in the U.S.A. is more expensive than anywhere else in the world, is listed at #36 in terms of health care(meaning, that's not a good thing), medical doctors have been known to not only lose their license but end up in prison for prescribing herbs to their patients. Herbs will treat the cause, while pharmaceutic drugs only mask the symptom. Going after the cause is of paramount importance if you wish to heal.
And if you think you should have your flu shot, check out this story. I have known for years all vaccines were dangerous, and have always recommended they not be used.
While herbs may not have "scientific research" to back up the claims made about them, certainly the thousands of years of use has to say something. Used properly, and assuming the herbs are grown properly so the nutrients actually exist, they can be powerful tools in eradicating disease.
Coriander for instance, is known to lower blood sugar levels in diabetics and is an anti-fungal. Chaga Mushroom is, to the best of anyone's knowledge, the most powerful anti-oxidant of any known plant, coming in at around 362,000 on the ORAC scale. The highest commonly consumed American food's ORAC rating is pomegranites, with a listing of 3,000.
Chinese Wolfberry, or Goji(Lycium), is listed at 25,000 on the ORAC scale. If you do not know what the ORAC scale is, it is a method used by Brunswick Labs to determine the anti-oxidant value of foods. The higher the ORAC figure, the more potent it is.
Certain therapeutic quality essential oils are over the one million mark on the ORAC scale. Clove oil is one of them. Coriander is also very high and over the one million mark. Therapeutic quality essential oils are VERY potent, so caution should be on the mind when using. Just a single drop can be equal to a cup or more of an herbal compound.
