Herbs for Breast Health
What about herbs for promoting healthy breasts and preventing
breast cancer? The ones I use myself and recommend most are Dandelion leaf,
Nettle, Oat straw and Red Clover. What's great about these is that they're
useful in so many ways, especially for general liver support. I take a daily tea
of equal parts Dandelion leaf, Oat straw, Nettle and Horsetail, which has not
only helped promote breast health, but has also helped reverse the early signs
of osteoporosis and improved my hair and nails. A blend for Fibroid Cysts in the breast. (contributed
by Dianna Pierce www.innersanctuary.com) Roman Chamomile, Frankincense, Helichrysum and Evening
Primrose Oil "My sister Linda used it for six months, in between her
visit to the Dr. When she saw him, she had eleven cysts in the breast and
was looking at aspirations again (she had already had at least ten aspirations
and several surgeries where the cysts were cut out). After using the blend for
six months and revisiting the surgeon he was amazed that she had one small cyst
and it was one that had been aspirated before. She told him that she was using
an aromatherapy blend that her sister made, and he was amazed! I also had to have a second mammogram this past year as they
saw three or four cysts that they needed a closer look at. I started to use the
blend as soon as I got home, at least four times a day, and in the three
weeks between the test, three of the cysts were gone! It is wonderful!
What else can I say! The blend is going on my website (www.innersanctuary.com)
and will be found under the Medicinal Blends."
So, ladies love your breasts! Touch them, eat the right foods and herbs for
them, and enjoy them, whatever shape or size they are! And men, if you love the
woman in your life, remind her to take care of her breasts.
