Earth Clinic

http://www.earthclinic.com

We love Earth Clinic.  Here you will find a myriad of natural remedies for just about any health complaint under the sun. 

Not only that, it works on a voting system - a thumbs up if it worked for her/him and a thumbs down if it didn't, so at a glance you can see which remedy showed to be the most successful in curing or treating the ailment.

We would never recommend that natural healing remedies be a substitute for conventional treatments, but we do take the view that both parties should work together for the goodness of the patient.

Kefir

Picture
We believe in the healing properties of kefir.

A very good description of what kefir is can be found here:-

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kefir

In a nutshell though, we can tell you that it is a type of fungi, which feeds on milk and produces a finished product - a powerful probiotic drink, which if taken regularly, is said to cure a host of ailments.

A friend has created a very quick and easy guide to making kefir, which you can download and print off, and share with your friends.

We have trawled the internet to find the best websites, which give the most useful information backed up by scientific evidence to support the claims. At the same time though, we hope that the reader does his/her own research as many of the remedies are not without controversy. 

Please make your own mind up based on the evidence and take care with dosage and any potential drug interactions - research! 

Lastly, although this is purely anecdotal and based on our own observations - these remedies have treated and cured many maladies suffered by our group of friends and families, over the years - without noticeable adverse side-effects. 

The links below mirror our claims\experiences, but we have also included some which may challenge them.
