The listing, Uncommon Cures For Everday Ailments Paperback has ended.
Many of these "cures" have been around the alternative medicinal movement
for a long time. The Burton Goldberg Group on Alternative Medicine covers
alternative medicinal treatments with a contributor concensus of hundreds
of physicians. Some of the items cited are scalp massage for headache
relief. Headache management is a complicated area. Known aggravants of
headaches are stress, foods i.e. excess coffee, heavy creams and certain
types of allergins. There are times where an osteopath or chiropractor
can assist with headache control. Ultimately, the patient needs a diagnosis for the cause of the headache because a temporary relief product or process could mask more sinister symptomatology. The benefits of green tea are extolled. Green tea is a known anti-oxidant along with Vitamin C,
Selenium and other vitamins/herbal preparations. Exercise is a good
supplemental therapy for advancing age. So is calcium carbonate
supplementation , Vitamin D and Boron. Vitamin C is a good supplemental
therapy for the common cold but so is green tea. A high grade
acidophilus is another condition precedent for short-circuiting disease
processes of the gastrointestinal tract. This work is a good beginning
point for someone with little knowledge of the alternative medicinal
movement. Of course, every therapeutic approach should be discussed with
your physician or alternative medicinal provider. Frequent dental cleanings are another condition precedent to good health because dental
calculus is a literal breeding ground for disease. I would recommend
this book; however, realize that its contents are a starting point only.
