My Grandmother, born in the first decade of the 1900′s, was a strong advocate of folk medicine, which relies upon natural ingredients. She cured herself of arthritus using apple cider vinegar and water with honey as an option. My Mother also found this treatment helped cure her arthritus. Apple cider vinegar, water and honey also seriously help with weight loss and cleaning out your bodily system. There are a great many health benefits to be derived from natural sources. Learning more about this would be extremely beneficial always keeping in mind that a physicians input is very important for illnesses that would not be positively impacted from natural methods. We are so fortunate to have the benefit of medication that can treat disease. Knowledge is everything.

I personally advocate the use of WHEATGRASS. It singularly is a tremendous healer as well as making your teeth naturally white and is a great way to get your green vegetables. The positive impact of wheatgrass is too huge to explain in this forum. I would strongly suggest you read as much as you can about it and do not be swayed by negative commentary. It has terrific healing components that have not yet been proven by scientific method however its effects have been potent in my life and the lives of others and as it can do no harm to take, common sense suggests you add this to your dietary regimen.

I would add the natural power of the Goji berry. People in the Himalayas have been using them for centuries. Lots of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals in them. And I agree, I would go for nature for a good advice rather than going to the doctor.

I’ve noticed that vinegar is in the news a lot lately. I use the vinegar with ‘mother’ which some pundits claimed there was no real benefits. Yet, here regular vinegar is being tauted as good stuff.

Thanks for this list, everyone can derive health benefit from the use of these spices. Another one that could be added is turmeric. It is a good anti-inflammatory, a natural antiseptic and antibacterial agent, and some research is now showing it can be effective against cancer.
