When Hippocrates said “the physician treats but nature heals,” he was
describing the human body’s natural tendency toward minimizing illness
and creating optimal health. As we know, however, the body needs a little
help at times. Alternative health practices can support the physical body
in its natural propensity toward healing by applying very effective
remedies.

In this article we present powerful natural treatments for three health
conditions that frequently affect children: asthma, head lice, and pink
eye. Orthodox medical doctors and the drug conglomerates won’t be overly
thrilled that you know these natural treatments; they have no way of
patenting or monetizing these cures.

The Asthma Remedy

Asthma is a serious (if not frightening) disorder in which the airway
becomes inflamed, resulting in wheezing, loss of breath, and tightness in
the chest. About 15 million people in the U.S. suffer with asthma and
there are more than half a million hospitalizations resulting from this
disorder.

The prevalence of asthma has been increasing for every age group
affected. Children have the highest increase; over the last ten years the
rate of asthma in children has increased by over 90%. Parents with
asthmatic children will know that the quickest remedy for an asthma
attack comes from medication, but there are times when a child’s inhaler
is not available.

There are two natural ways to treat an asthma attack which relate to the
soothing effect that warm liquid has on bronchial tubes. First, try some
hot soup which can soothe the bonchials. However, the second remedy can
be more effective since it includes a warm liquid with an additional
ingredient: caffeine. Coffee or tea, with caffeine, can open airways
similar to the way inhalers do, so try this during an asthma episode if
no medication is available.

The Pink Eye Cure

Before 1938, patentable antibacterial drugs had not been developed, so
colloidal silver was the primary “medicine” for fighting infections in
the U.S. It is quietly used today as a cleaning agent in water tanks, by
airlines for in-flight water purification, and by NASA to sterilize water
on the Space Shuttle. Why? Colloidal silver has been found to destroy
about 650 viral, bacterial, and fungal “bugs.”

One independent laboratory conducted research to determine the
effectiveness of a colloidal silver manufactured by a company called
Earthborn Products. This silver was applied to both normal and resistant
strains of staphylococcus aureus bacteria and incubated at 37 degrees
centigrade. The staph cultures were killed in just four minutes! Also,
research at the Upstate Medical Center at Syracuse University (N.Y.)
found that “silver works on a wide range of bacteria without any known
side effects…”

Pink eye (pinkeye) or conjunctivitis is a highly contagious ailment in
which the conjunctiva or membrane that covers the eye is infected by a
virus or bacterial infection. Although harmless, the challenge is to keep
infected family members from contaminating those around them. This
challenge, however, has been met with colloidal silver.

Many people are successfully treating their pink eye by applying one or
two drops of colloidal silver in their eyes, twice a day. In fact, Dr.
Evan M. Kansas reported in Science Digest (1978) that he experienced
“instant success” using colloidal silver with immune compromised
patients. One example he gave was a patient’s pinkeye that was totally
resolved in less than six hours after topical treatment!

The Head Lice Cure

Mom and dad, if you’re tired of “nit picking,” then pay attention. About
ten million people in America are afflicted with head lice and their
eggs, or “nits.” The head louse lives in human hair fairly close to the
scalp where it feeds on human blood. Female lice lay about 10 eggs per
day and the babies, or nits, hang-on to strands of hair with amazing
tenacity.

Getting rid of head lice is a three-step process. You must kill all the
live lice, check for and remove all the nits by combing and manual nit
picking, and you must do a thorough job of cleaning the infested person’s
belongings and
