Turn the crock pot to its lowest setting, cover, and allow to heat gently two to four .hours, checking and stirring frequently to prevent burning. When the oil is yellow in color and has an "herby" smell, it's done. Strain through a coffee filter or piece of clean cloth into a large measuring cup. This oil is now an infused herbal oil.
To each cup of infused oil (you'll lose some in the straining process), add \ cup of the beeswax. Heat the oil and beeswax together over very low heat until the beeswax is completely melted. |

(Symphytum officinale, p. 136) aid the healing of cuts, wounds, and abrasions.
Immune System
Immune stimulants, e.g., echinacea
(Echinacea spp. p. 90) and lapacho (Tabebuia spp., p. 137) encourage the immune system to ward off infection.
Respiratory System
Garlic
(Allium sativum
Ginseng
(Panax ginseng)
Antiseptics and antibiotics, e.g., garlic (Allium sativum, p. 56) help the lungs resist infection. Expectorants, e.g., elecampane (Inula helenium, p. 105) stimulate the coughing up of mucus. Demulcents, e.g., marsh mallow (Althaea officinalis, p. 163) soothe irritated membranes. | | Symphytum officinale, p. 136). Utensils
Use glass, enamel, or stainless steel pots and pans, wooden or steel knives and spatulas, and plastic or nylon sieves. A wine press is useful for making tinctures. Never use aluminum utensils; this element is potentially toxic and easily absorbed by herbs. Sterilization
All utensils used to make herbal remedies should be sterilized for at least 30 minutes in a well-diluted sterilizing solution, such as the type used for a baby's bottle. After soaking, rinse thoroughly with boiled water and dry in a hot oven or wash in a dishwasher. |

See book keywords and concepts |  He had his patients use the strained solution at room temperature, 2-3 drops three times daily from a sterile eye dropper.
The yellow color of the root is due to the alkaloid, berberine. The Indian Journal of Ophthalmology for March 1983 reported that the berberine found in goldenseal root is excellent for treating inflammations of the cornea and iris brought on by the herpes simplex virus. A solution similar to the one previously mentioned can be made for these problems, except that 1/4 tsp. of goldenseal root would be used with the other two herbs. The same directions would be followed. |
Schuyler W. Lininger, Jr. DC
See book keywords and concepts |  The early nineteenth-century Eclectic physicians in the United States (who used herbs as their main medicine) not only employed eucalyptus (p. 421) oil to sterilize instruments and wounds but recommended a steam inhalation of the vapor of the oil to help treat asthma (p. 15), bronchitis, whooping cough, and emphysema.7
Thyme (p. 464) has a long history of use in Europe for the treatment of dry, spasmodic coughs as well as bronchitis.8 Its antispasmodic actions have made it a common traditional recommendation for whooping cough. |

Numerous investigators have reported that the formula stimulates the production of colony stimulating factors and interleukins. Oral, intraperitoneal, and intravenous administration induced a dose-dependent induction of CSF in mice. In bone marrow culture, the growth stimulating effects were characteristic of standard GM-CSF. |
Andrew Chevallier
See book keywords and concepts | | Symphytum officinale, p. 136), a very popular herb in the past, is thought to cause severe or even fatal liver damage in rare circumstances. When an herbal medicine is used correctly, however, the chances of developing a serious side effect are remote.
Potent Plant Chemicals
The ability of an herbal medicine to affect body systems depends on the chemical constituents that it contains. |
