Herbalism

My first experience with a healing herb began almost by accident. It was about 30 years ago and I was suffering with lung problems. I would get a cold or flu 2 or 3 times each year it would move into my lungs and I would experience a tight painful barking cough with no expectoration for weeks afterward.

One day I happened to be in a small health food store in Huntington Beach and the clerk asked if he could be of assistance. Out of desperation, I described my lung problem to him. He suggested I try using the herb cayenne.

I bought some pure unadulterated cayenne (the herb capsicum) capsules and followed the instructions on the bottle. That afternoon the cough loosened up and two days later the cough was gone and my lungs cleared.

This experience impressed me and when I was struck by cancer years later I was open to the use of herbs as part of the treatment.

But you must understand, using an herb this way (Allopathically) did not solve my lung problems.   I still caught colds and flu every year and they went to my lungs just as before.   It was not until I learned how to combine the use of herbs with life style changes (see Naturopathic Medicine and My Biography) that I truly cured my lung problems completely.
