Plants work so well with the human body because they share very similar chemistry at the circulatory level. Without circulation there is no life, no healing.

Notice anything -strange??
The only difference between the blood of plants (chlorophyll) and the blood of humans is the use of magnesium or iron.
That's it! This is why natural plant medicine is so much more compatable with your body than synthetic
chemicals made by pharmaceutical companies.
Ginger and Parsley are two common ingredients to most diets and both have some amazing effects as they transfer energy from their "blood" to ours.
Ginger is most often used for intestinal ailments like indigestion, loss of appetite, nausea, gas, or motion sickness.
It works because the gingerol compound relaxes the blood vessels, stimulates blood flow and relieves
pain.
You can eat ginger, grind it and put it in food or in a calming ginger tea! It is found in both main dishes and desserts.

Parsley is traditionally used as a garnish, often tossed out with the rubbish.
Stop!
Nibble that garnish!
The unassuming sprig of parsley is an amazing
blood purifier.
That gorgeous green color tells you it is rich in chlorophyll.
Chlorophyll helps purify our blood and form new red blood cells.
The iron in our red blood cells transport oxygen throughout our body (there's that connection
between plant "blood" and ours again!)

Understanding and reclaiming the symbiotic relationship between the plant kingdom and the human kingdom is critical to our mutual survival.
Only when we appreciate the value in eachother will we make the transition to true Oneness.
Do you have other plant recipes or stories of a journey through illness?
We'd love to hear about them!

Thank you so much, I really appreciate the feedback. In the cyber-world it's often hard to gauge my effectiveness. If there's anything special you want me to target, just let me know!

I have bad hay fever problems
I have bad hay fever problems year round and i have ordered 4 of the things you listed for allergy issues. For suppliments I have used butterbur, nettle, and vit.c with Quen something. But I have not heard of most of the things you listed for allergies. So I am hopeful and keeping my fingers crossed. Thank you for that.
For a request, .. I am interested in ph up for water. I use a reverse osmosis system and I know that the water comes out acidic like distilled water. But I am suspicous of some ph up products that don't sound natural. How about baking soda? ... I know of very pure baking soda available that has no aluminum in it.
I am also interested in salt, .. and in minerals for water.
Thanks again Boo.
