Your First Aid Kit by Steven Horne:
Here are my recommendations for what to put in your home
health care kit.
Capsicum Extract or Capsules: Capsicum is an important
remedy for stopping bleeding, treating shock and stimulating circulation and
healing. It is also a valuable remedy for colds and has mild analgesic
qualities.
Lobelia Essence: Lobelia is an antispasmodic that relaxes
muscle cramps or spasms and can be used to ease pain, relax the body during
anxiety attacks and stress, ease asthma attacks, and relieve tension headaches.
Lobelia can also be used as an emetic to induce vomiting in cases of food
poisoning or flu. Blue Vervain is a milder alternative some people prefer for
young children.
Ultimate Echinacea or Immune Stimulator: It’s good to have
something to stimulate the immune system to help fight off contagious disease
when it's "going around." Ultimate Echinacea is a liquid immune
booster, suitable for young children and adults. Immune Stimulator is an
encapsulated remedy for older children and adults who can swallow capsules.
These remedies can not only help prevent infections, they can also boost your
immune system to fight them off more effectively.
Silver Shield and/or Silver Shield Gel: I keep both of these
in my first aid supplies as natural antiseptics. Silver Shield is a very
effective and nontoxic silver product that can be taken internally or applied
topically. You can use it as a sinus spray, throat gargle or as ear drops for
infections in the sinuses, throat and ears. It can also be taken internally for
infections, but I have better results with other remedies for colds, flu and
other acute ailments. The gel is excellent for all topical applications and is
safe to use on open wounds. It can also be used as a hand sanitizer.
Tei Fu Oil or Tei Fu Massage Lotion: Tei Fu oil is a topical
analgesic and can be rubbed in to ease the pain of headaches, muscle aches,
arthritis, sore throats and much more. It can be inhaled for respiratory
congestion and makes a great remedy for bites and stings. I've also rubbed it
into the chest for congestion. I think it's one of the best topical analgesics
on the market.
Peppermint Oil: Peppermint oil settles the stomach where
there is nausea and vomiting and eases gas and bloating. It can also help to
promote mental alertness.
AL-J Liquid or Capsules:
If you are prone to colds and respiratory congestion, this is a great
remedy for clearing mucus from the lungs and sinuses. It is useful for coughs,
colds, earaches, digestive upset and allergies.
Aloe Vera Gel or Herbal Trim Skin Conditioner: A high
quality aloe vera gel is useful to keep on hand for burns, sunburn, abrasions
and other skin irritations. Herbal Trim Skin Conditioner works even better than
plain aloe vera gel.
IF-C: No first aid kit is complete without something for
pain. This natural anti-inflammatory is a great remedy for easing pain and
promoting recovery from minor injuries, headaches and other aches and pains.
Nature’s Fresh: This product is great to have on hand for
stains and odors, but it is also an amazing topical spray for helping to ease
pain and promote healing. You can spray it on all kinds of minor injuries and
painful areas to ease pain and promote healing.
