Among its many medicinal uses are lowering cholesterol, as an immune booster, and lowering blood glucose levels. "One of the primary medicinal uses for basil is for its anti-inflammatory properties. This effect stems from eugenol, a volatile oil in basil that blocks enzymes in the body that cause swelling, making basil an ideal treatment for people with arthritis. Basil, especially as an extract or oil, is known to have exceptionally powerful antioxidant properties" NOTE: These claims have not been substantiated by the FDA and are not intended as medical advice            Continue Reading  DIY FEVERFEW Tincture   Feverfew flower From  Back to the Basics: The word "feverfew" derives from the Latin word febrifugia, meaning "fever reducer."

THIS is what got my attention:  "Cayenne pepper's bright red color signals its high content of beta-carotene or pro-vitamin A. Just two teaspoons of cayenne pepper provide 47% of the daily value for vitamin A. Often called the anti-infection vitamin, vitamin A is essential for healthy epithelial tissues including the mucous membranes that line the nasal passages, lungs, intestinal tract and urinary tract and serve as the body's first line of defense against invading pathogens."        Continue Reading  What do you think?  Are you ready to get started?
