Detoxing or Fasting in Winter?
Waaaiiittt! Perhaps not such a good idea for most folks who have trouble with the chill in winter.Serious detoxing usually chills the body quickly, while sending you looking for the warming carbs. Our bodies tend to be more tolerant of it in spring, with everything renewing and warming.While waiting though, we can get ready for it, so it won’t be such a shock then. Hot soups, stews, steaming and wok-cooking veggies will all get the detox process started while keeping up the body heat. The Detox powder with the Barley Grass Juice Powder are also part of the process, and that is good to start now too, as it suppresses the appetite and alkalizes.Full detoxing and fasting directions are in my book, Feeling Very Much Better. You could also go to the Store at EvesHerbs-Remedies.com and order the Detox Therapy Pack which includes the book and extra info.If the detox you’re planning is a fast, this is great preparation and much easier on the body. The detox and barley greens powders are helpfully “filling” for those sometimes long fasting days.I hope you are enjoying winter with the lakes filling up again,Best of feeling good to you,Doc EveFrom So.

I was tired of being on the antibiotic merry-go-round for sore throats.“She got me back on the right foods for me and started me and my husband on some herbs. I was pregnant within three months. She has been a big part of my life and wellness program. Her herbs have helped my family and me as a prevention from getting colds and flus as well as helping us get through the illnesses once they get hold.“Bactotox and Herba Pneu are staples in my house and are often given as gifts to my grown children now. MNF, Nu-Liv and Sugar Free are my new friends as I get older.“I found [Eve] in the Yellow Pages on Riverside Drive in North Hollywood/Toluca Lake! Just took a chance and I'm happy my guardian angels sent me there. This review is long overdue.“Thank you, Eve, for all your knowledge and care over the last 32 years!“Love you, L.”I look forward to another new year together,Docs Eve and DavidPS - I found this so appropriate to the times: “Life must go on; I forget just why.” Edna St. Vincent MillayFrom So.

25% OFF Formulas to Help You Through the Holiday Feasting
Dear patients and friends,SAVE ON THE HOLIDAY HELPER HERBS AGAIN THIS YEAR...We're taking 25% OFF ($4 per bottle) the herbs that help with the sugar cravings and hangovers, as well as the holiday blues and chronic dyspepsia:Sugar Free PATIC FE PS:SS and Joy BlendALSO... Get ONE FREE BOTTLE of ANY Eve's Herbs Formula with every $100 spent (Plus Free Shipping, of course).This offer is only available by phone at 310-855-1111 or 541-482-2112or by email at doctoreve@EvesHerbs.comSince these formulas work quickly, you can take them as needed. The first three to help support our livers, pancreas (sugar organ) and the poor belabored colon. The Joy Formula sort of declares itself and is handy for ourselves or those in need. These travel well too, no leaky bottles and should prevent the "touristas." The Herbal Multi will work as a little bit of health insurance since the usual "good foods" like salads are not generally eaten at this time.This woman wrote recently: "Just had to write and tell you how much my body loves Herbal Multi! What a great formula. I'm so glad I added it to my daily dosage. I have no idea why it works so well for me, but since taking it, I'm 'feeling very much better’. My stomach and candida are feeling great thanks to you." She's taking the BWC, Detox powder with the Barley Grass Juice Powder and Colostrum, in addition to the Herbal Multi.Just off the topic for a moment: Most of us are familiar with chemotherapy - either we've dealt with it ourselves, or someone dear to us has. D.A. just wrote that for appetite loss during chemo for her mom, "The Gentian Root worked and she is feeling much better."YOU HAVE ASKED: WHEN TO STOP THE HERBSJust FYI, our symptoms often disappear quickly while using the herbs, and the temptation is to stop taking them when this happens. Ideally though, we would take the remedial herbs for 1/10th of the time we've had a chronic condition to make sure the dis-ease is totally gone or in remission. We should talk regularly to make sure that all is well and we can figure out maintenance doses. This should prevent this woman's situation who wrote: "I need a refill on my herbs. I haven't had them in a couple of months and my symptoms have come back big time. Clearly, they work!”Of course, the herbs and Feeling Very Much Better make truly useful gifts too.Thinking of you and wishing you a calm, bright and sweetly contemplative season...Doc EveFrom So.

Back Pain From the Stomach or Intestines
Oddly enough, when back pain seems to be coming from our desk jobs, household jobs or a zillion other backbreaking jobs, it may actually be caused by indigestion and, especially, constipation.If this rings any bells with you, give this a try - just eat mostly veggies for a couple of days along with taking the Patic Fe, Anti-Geo or the Natural Herbal Laxative to move things along and clean up a bit. Add the Cramp Bark to help ease "cramping" in the back and promote ”un-cramping” of stomach tension. If the cause is just this, it means that the congestion in the colon and small intestine is causing referred pain to the same nerve levels of the spine that go to the pain areas in your back, making it ache and ache.That's why when we spend some effective time in the bathroom, and have a lie-down on a heating pad, it will often just magically vanish.A woman with nausea and stomach pain e-mailed, "Just a note to tell you that after receiving the herbs, I was feeling better in 2 days. I also had a massage and she massaged my back and stomach area...told me to drink more water, and that I had a lot of gas. Now, I'm back to normal....thanks again.”On another gut-related topic...A woman with Barrett's Esophagus wrote, "Oh, and I forgot to tell you. I went for the H. Pylori breath test a couple of weeks ago, and the test was NEGATIVE – no signs of H. Pylori. Thank God I didn’t take the antibiotics and reached out to you [instead]! Also, he said... the fact that the Barrett’s Esophagus is gone is 'a miracle'. That’s not supposed to happen. So, I really lucked out."The very best of health to you and yours this autumn,Doc EveFrom So.

Staying Strong as We Age - Plus, Fibroids & Cysts
Dear patients and friends,Happy autumn, my favorite season - I hope you enjoy your corner of the world turning colors and the weather mellowing out.87 and Going StrongOur 87-year-old patient and friend, who is the woman I wrote about in my book, Feeling Very Much Better, about 40 years ago, was a makeup artist. Her arthritis was giving her trouble getting up and down the stairs of her trailer. She has been using the herbs fairly steadily throughout this time, and with her recent re-order she told me that just a while ago she experienced a little vertigo after walking among the sequoias at a relatively high altitude, and not drinking water due the lack of facilities there. She needed to hydrate, of course, and was fine when she did. In checking with her cardiologist, "just in case...", he said, "Whatever you're doing, keep doing it, you're in very good shape!" That's one of my favorite lines - and we've heard it a few times lately, which does my heart good.Let me Know What You'd Like Me to Write AboutThank you for your comments in these little emails like, "Your timing was good," or, "I wanted to hear about this…" Do drop me a line if you have something that you'd like me to address. Sometimes I need a little nudge to find the right things. Phone and email address are below.Uterine Fibroids and CystsGood feedback on uterine fibroids has been welcome too. "I've been taking your uterine fibroid protocol for many months - I think I started last year. I’ve had a history of bleeding and a uterine fibroid that is 9 cm large. I was told to have a hysterectomy (no, thank you) or Lupron shot. I tried one Lupron shot and it basically did nothing to shrink the fibroid. It helped a little with the continuous bleeding I had been experiencing, but when I finally read up on the side effects, I again said no, thank you."Your protocol completely stopped the bleeding. However, last time I asked you, you said to take the pills for at least a few months after the bleeding stopped. It has been about 5 months with no bleeding, so I went down to 2 E:V a day, with 1 Gentian Root and 1 G.B. for the past 6 weeks, weaning them down to see if there was any difference. I stopped completely on Monday this week. Yesterday, Friday, I began to bleed again! Today I soaked a 10 hr. pad in 3 hrs.! I will, OF COURSE, go back on the [herbs]. I guess it was years in coming, so it will take some more time to go…"A 50-something-year-old woman wrote, "My cyst is gone and fibroids have stopped growing and maybe becoming smaller."Thank you to Cydney Crickard, Liz Heller, Carolyn Huggins, Alda Jance, Patrick MacManus, Kate McGregor Stewart, Natalie Medeiros, Jane Rogers, David-Scott Slonaker and Veronica Valles for referring others to our work and the wonderful herbs.It's time to stock up on your favorite immune herbs to prevent colds and flus…The very best of health to you and yours this autumn,Doc EveFrom So.

Insomnia and Anxiety Remedies
Dear patients and friends,Insomnia is another bugaboo of the aged, as well as the young and stressed. It always annoys me when people say, "When you're tired enough, you'll sleep,” when in fact, I found that in becoming overtired I become jumpier and wider and wider awake - the nervous system in overdrive.In dealing with it, of course, the worst thing is to get mad that we can't sleep. My Mom told me to tell myself, “If I'm not back to sleep in 10 minutes, I'm getting up to clean the oven.” That can work - oh yes.For something less traumatic though, I get up and take my Detox Powder with the Barley Grass Powder and my morning herbs, then add a couple of Calm Spirit, Vervain and MNF with 2 Tart Cherry caps (Keep Calm). Then, I check out the neighboring houses and see that I'm really not alone; other windows are lit up also. I grab a few lungfuls of cool air and am ready to get back into my warm bed.I then breathe while focusing on the 3rd eye (the spot between the eyebrows) - inhale the worries colored dark black, recognize them, and let them leave in white light. In the meantime, the herbs are doing their stuff. You could also take another Sublingual Melatonin at this time, and so relax into the arms of Morpheus.If its our thoughts that are endlessly chasing their tails, grab a journal and write them all down, to be addressed in the morning. Sleep well.Sleep Checklist:
- Oust electrical units from the bedroom (computers, phones, etc.)
- Eat an apple or banana
- Write down circular thoughts that won’t quiet down
- Threaten yourself with oven cleaning
- Know you’re in good company
- Perform your ritual of a.m. herbs if sleep is slow to return
- Good night!
