SHEEP SORREL
The Shaker religious community of the U.S. puts forth as one of
their principles, the concept of health as being normal and illness
as being abnormal.
Part of their search for health includes the knowledge of how to
use Sheep Sorrel to prevent
scurvy.
Scurvy, as we know today, is a potentially fatal dis-ease caused
by a deficiency of a vitamin called Vitamin C.
The effects caused by scurvy are very similar to what happens in
the case of advanced age where deterioration of the body takes place
and death ensues.
When it was first used by the Shakers, they, as other people, had
never heard of vitamins. Yet, they knew Sheep Sorrel prevented scurvy.
They also used it to cure scrofula (
glandular swellings),
skin diseases, boils (with external applications), and, in extract
form, to cure cancers and tumors.
Here is a plant which combines the unique features of combating
the ravages of aging and reverses the condition of "bad cells".
It is understandable that many people enjoy making Sheep Sorrel
a part of their daily, supplemental program.
A more recent development is to incorporate Sheep Sorrel into a
support f ormula known as P. C. - C. to combat "bad cells"
which can be used in the same way as Sheep Sorrel.
DOSE: 40 drops, 3 times per day. In times of
crisis, as with boils and swellings, 40 to 80 drops hourly while
awake.
I f "bad cells" in the body, then 1 Tbl. 3 times per
day.
