A cleansing routine that can cure advanced arthritis in three weeks — if you're tough enough to handle it.
SCHULZE: I've seen different natural healers cure arthritis with various juice fasting regimes, but the late Paavo Airola's arthritis people got better faster than anybody. It's because Paavo Airola didn't mind the pain they would go through during their healing process. He fasted them on citrus juice and apple cider vinegar. Now, the idea is that apple cider vinegar and the citrus juices are very high in organic acids and those organic acids wash and clean your joints. And there's a lot to that. They flush out the inorganic acids, the uric acids, etc. He would take people out of wheelchairs and I would see them marching in three weeks. He'd kick their ass, and they'd be crying.
Interviewer: What do you mean, kick their a##?
SCHULZE: I mean, he'd kick them in the a## if they wouldn't get up to help. He said, "Now come on, we're going to march today." If they wouldn't, he'd kick them. He'd get them out of the wheelchair and throw the wheelchair down the hill. He didn't take no for an answer. He had that typical European intensity. And he'd fast them on orange juices and apple cider vinegar and you'd even hear them crying at night, some of them. They were in such pain.
Interviewer: How much vinegar and how much juice? SCHULZE: A couple of tablespoons in an 8-16 oz. glass of water 3, 4, 5 times a day.
And, along with that, a citrus juice fast. He didn't always just use oranges. I mean, we're talking lemons and limes, which are stronger. My wife will take three whole organic limes and put them in a blender and fill it with distilled water and blend it, peel and all, and we'll have that as a lime drink. And that will do it. She's a gouty-type person, and when she goes out, she gets pain in her knees from running and stuff. This takes it right away. Dr. Jensen sometimes wouldn't use citrus with arthritics because he said it's too intense. He used other juices. It worked fine. His people got better in six months. See the difference!
Interviewer: And Airola got them better how fast?
SCHULZE: Three weeks. I saw the turnaround so quick, okay?
Interviewer: So that's why they say citrus promotes reactions, because it's too intense.
SCHULZE: Yes, it's too intense. It hurts as these joints are cleaning. So why do the slow program? If you're going to be uncomfortable, why not be uncomfortable for 3 weeks — and then be well? We've had a lot of people come through here. They couldn't move their hands, they couldn't hold a pen, they couldn't hold their pen and write their name, and their hands were actually fixated claws.
And we cured them using everything I've talked about, plus the deep tissue repair herbs we'll get into in a moment. But the big thing with arthritis is that people are looking for that one magic herb that will cure them. And it's true, one or two of these herbs work, but you have to add the programs with it. That's why I say to people, Dr. Christopher called his book The School of Natural Healing — not the Great American Herbal. He used foods, cleansing, emotions, hydrotherapy — not just herbs.
Interviewer: What would you do in a hopeless arthritic case?
SCHULZE: The first thing is you've got to get off of all foods that are acid-forming. Which means the mucusless diet. (see links in other post) Which I call the purifying or health building diet. Raw foods, raw food until the arthritis is better and juice fasting and raw foods. You can't have any animals, any dairy, any fish, any beef, anything that contains uric acid in the muscles or the fluids and that will build-up in the system. A lot of people get confused on the matter of ph. It doesn't matter what something tests as far as ph.
(note from knowledge seeker-the mucusless diet was what Dr christiopher believed in and it contains mall amounts of clean animal foods while Schulze, his student, believes in a vegan, raw diet)
Interviewer: You mean what it does in the body?
SCHULZE: Yes, what it does in the body. The highest acidic ph foods, like lemons and limes, are the most alkalizing for the body. It doesn't have anything to do with the ph...
Interviewer: You put them on that diet?
SCHULZE:Yeah, I put them on a lot of citrus, and if you're not going to use that, apple and grape works very well. But a lot of juice fasting.
Interviewer: Even for weeks at a time?
SCHULZE: Yeah, I've done two 30-day juice fasts and one 60-day juice fast.
Interviewer: With whom?
SCHULZE: Myself, personally.
Interviewer: What was it like?
SCHULZE: On the 28th day of my first 30-day juice fast, I kick-boxed seventeen rounds and no one could touch me. I had more energy than I've ever had in my life. So forget this stuff about not having energy or being weak or whatever. Where did I get my B-12, my protein? Who cares, who knows? I lived on juices, twice, for 30 days.
Interviewer: And you didn't turn to skin and bones?
SCHULZE: I lost weight, but not a dramatic amount. You level off after awhile.
Interviewer: Have you cured hopeless arthritics?
SCHULZE: Oh, absolutely.
Interviewer: I mean what did they look like?
SCHULZE: Wheelchairs. When I taught out West, I saw people in wheelchairs. I would wheel them right next to a glacier that melted. A stream ran down, as wide as this house, of frozen water. I use to take people in their wheelchairs and wheel them right into that stream.
Interviewer: What did you do that for?
SCHULZE: Just to stimulate their body. Frozen water, just to stimulate their body. It's like a hot and cold shower, but better. It's a shock. Of course, it's great if you have arthritis: ice packs, heat packs, hot and cold water. Stimulate that circulation.
Interviewer: Shock treatment to the body?
SCHULZE: Oh, it was wonderful. Just wonderful, and we used to prescribe a lot of hot and cold showers. Hydrotherapy.
Interviewer: You used hot and cold showers? Was it too brutal?
SCHULZE: You know, all my patients do it. I got a four-year-old kid doing the hot and cold.
Interviewer: So you do the ice packs with the arthritis and then you switch to heat?
SCHULZE: Hot and cold on the joints works really well.
Interviewer: When you say cold, do you mean ice cubes?
SCHULZE: Ice packs. Eight to ten minutes of ice, then hot water or hot packs, for eight to ten minutes. You can do it a long time at nights, for several hours if you need to. You still do the hot and cold shower routine. But this ice, then heat, stimulates the blood flow better than anything.
Interviewer: And it doesn't cause blood vessels to burst? Because of the violence of the temperature changes?
SCHULZE: No. No, not at all. In fact, they do it on animals. You go to a race track and they are icing the legs and heating the legs of the horses all the time for better blood flow. People just don't do it anymore. I had one orthopedic doctor suggest a contrast bath for me once in my life. I said, "What's that?" Well, he goes, 'A little hot and cold". It was something orthopedic doctors used all the time, but they don't use it any more. They now regard it as medical history, not something you actually do for people.
Interviewer: You mentioned deep tissue repair herbs for arthritis. What are they?
SCHULZE: Yes, but this is something that nobody even knows about except me. This is, you might say, a triple step beyond cayenne ointment for relieving arthritis pain.
As you know, cayenne pepper has already been proven to reduce pain and inflammation. The trouble is, traditional cayenne ointments you get in the drugstores are pathetically weak, and made of synthetic ingredients. The old-time heating and healing ointments don't exist anymore, so I'm going to show your readers how to make one. In a moment, I'll give you and your readers the formula and instructions, but first, let me tell you how I got into this. I'm not an arthritic, but I did need something for myself.
When I began, I made the ointment for myself; I wasn't even thinking about what it would do for arthritics. When I first made the cayenne ointment, I took it because I was in Karate. I spent 22 years in the martial arts. I got 3 black belts in different martial arts. I have broken and ripped everything. In 1971,1 was the champion brick-breaker of New York State.
So, I wanted a rub but I couldn't find one strong enough — or one made with natural whole herbs — not chemical imitations. All the preparations today used to be made from wintergreen oil, which is scientifically called methyl-salicylate, because it contains about 95% salicylic acid.
They also used to be made from peppermint, which is now called menthol. Now-a-days, they don't use wintergreen anymore, they make it from boiling coal in sulfuric acid. It's phenol or carbolic acid. And the peppermint oil is also synthesized. First of all, you don't have herbs anymore, second of all, the amounts they are putting in are not effective.
So I wanted one that was made the original way, with wintergreen oil, peppermint oil, and also cayenne. In Europe, they use cayenne, ginger and mustard like Dr. Christopher did, to stimulate the blood flow. In fact, when you go skiing in the United States, they have this warm feet powder you put it in your socks. It's just cayenne pepper and mustard.
Cayenne pepper, mustard, and ginger stimulate the blood flow, internally or externally. So I soaked wintergreen and peppermint oil in there and I put in cayenne, ginger and mustard and made a heating balm. I took it to Dr. Christopher and said, "Here, Dr. Christopher, here's my heating balm." He goes, "Great!" He opened it up, and it was a one-ounce jar and he put his finger to the bottom, and took the whole ounce and went and put it in his mouth. And I said, "Dr. Christopher, no, don't put it in your mouth." And he goes, "Why not?" And I go, "Because it's for the outside of your body." He goes, "Is there anything in this that I shouldn't be putting in my mouth?"
I knew right there it was a test. His rule was never make anything to go inside or outside that you can't put inside or vice-versa. I thought about it and I thought there isn't anything you can't eat. It's olive oil and beeswax, the base he taught me to make every ointment of. And peppermint oil, wintergreen oil, cayenne, ginger and mustard. He said, "Very good." He loved it.
The base of it is wintergreen oil, which is almost pure salicylic acid, the greatest anti-inflammatory for arthritis. You can find L.A. Dodgers pouring it on their arms. I also put pure peppermint oil and peppermint in because they are the greatest anti-irritants. So this formula stimulates blood flow to the area, and reduces swelling and pain.
But now it gets even better. You add arnica, St. John's wort, and marigold, three yellow flowers which are the greatest trauma herbs for damaged, bruised, or traumatized tissues — as you have in arthritis. The key to this is really rubbing it in. If you want, take a hot shower before, and then you put this on. It may be uncomfortable for a little bit because it's seriously hot, but what a healing! Just make sure not to get it in your eyes, or near your genitals.
This is a deep tissue repair formula for muscle, tendon, ligaments, cartilage, joint and bone healing. This drives the circulation better than anything you can use externally. Here is the formula for the tissue repair oil. Every arthritic needs to know how to make it, if necessary. It not only reduces pain, but it actually heals hurting tissue.
Ingredients:
32 oz. Wintergreen oil
16 oz. Olive oil extra virgin
12 oz. Menthol crystals
1 cup Arnica flowers dried
1 cup St. John's Wort flowers dried
1 cup Marigold flowers dried
1/2 cup Cayenne pepper, powdered (Habeneros, i.e., the hottest you can find.)
1/2 cup Ginger root, grated.
note from knowledge seeker --this deeep tissue repair oil can also be purchased at herbdoc.com
This recipe produces two quarts of deep tissue repair oil. INSTRUCTIONS: Put all these ingredients in one big jar. Let it soak for at least two weeks, then strain on the full moon two weeks later, or, if you have time, let it soak for two or three months before straining on a full moon.
A word on obtaining ingredients: 1) Regarding cayenne pepper, the hotter, the better. Use African bird peppers, or habeneros.
2) Buy your menthol crystals at either a pharmacy or a lab supply house. That one can be a little difficult, but usually a pharmacy or a lab supply house can supply it. A lot of pharmacists carry it, because it stops itching.
What they do is they distill peppermint oil to make it, then they distill it a second time and it crystallizes. These crystals are pure menthol. Menthol is one of the active principles of peppermint oil. You have peppermint leaves, which have a lot of active principles, then you have peppermint oil, which is a more concentrated form, and then you have menthol crystals, which is even more concentrated.
Make sure the menthol crystals are made from peppermint or thyme. Chemists always know that. I get it from a chemical supply house in Los Angeles. But a lot of times, people can contact their university or school, and just ask them where they can purchase some chemicals. You need a chemical supply house that sells natural chemicals that are derived from plants. This is at least four times stronger than anything you can buy, plus it contains trauma-healing herbs that nothing else contains. My experience with that formula is just unbelievable. I really love it.
Interviewer: How do you get the menthol crystals to dissolve into the oil?
SCHULZE: The way we've been doing it recently is once you put the menthol in we set that on the floor and then we have a radiant heater that has a coil inside of it on the other side of the room. We face it in that direction, and at the end of the day, it melts the crystals. In the summer, just put the jar in the sun for a few hours, or put the jar in a double boiler.
Interviewer: That dissolves it into it?
SCHULZE: Yes, it just has to be warm. You could also put it over a heat register and it would work. There's a lot of ways to do it.
Emotional advice for arthritics.
SCHULZE: I have found that arthritis is a crystallized disease for crystallized people. In other words, a lot of healers feel there's a certain mind set that goes along with arthritis — which is not being open. When your body starts freezing up, what's going on with you emotionally? Why don't you want to go forward? Most of my arthritis patients have been pretty constipated up here in their head. I think this is one of the reasons why people tend not to get well with their arthritis. It's like weight loss. You can take all the pills, you can eat all the Lean Cuisine, but if you don't move your ass, you don't keep the weight off. Okay?
With arthritis, you can take all the pills, you can take all the arthritis preparations, but if you don't follow the food program and stop putting inorganic minerals and acids into your body, your joints won't un-inflame. You also have to work with healing the mind — being a more open person and a more flexible person. People with arthritis aren't flexible physically and/or emotionally. This is their challenge, physically and emotionally.

The vet wanted to put the arthritic dog to sleep. But two weeks after following my suggestions, it was humping another dog."
Interviewer: So you are talking sick dogs, too?
SCHULZE: Yeah, and I've got a couple dog and cat stories I could go into... Okay.
The first one I remember is a woman I had never seen before she came walking up the sidewalk to my first clinic, carrying a dog that was absolutely slumped. It looked like it had been shot; it looked dead. This was some kind of a collie; it weighed about eighty pounds I thought, "Why is this woman bringing a dead dog into my clinic?" She was crying; she was a lead a actress on a soap opera (I actually remember recognizing her) because she had done a lot of commercials on television as well. She was hysterically crying. I asked what was wrong and she said "I am so and so, and I just went to the vet; my dog is fifteen years old and the vet said he wanted to put my dog to sleep."
I asked what was wrong and she said that her dog had arthritis which had gotten so bad he didn't even want to move anymore. He was in so much pain. Of course the vet's answer to this was to kill it and I thought that there are a lot of things I could think of to do. I have had a lot of patients with arthritis. So we started a program; there are a lot of people out there who have older dogs with arthritis.
Think about it: if we had a person, we would think about some hot and cold applications. Well, you can do that to do a dog; you can put an ice pack on a dog's hip or a dog's spine. Dogs love it. You can give them a hot and cold bath; dogs love the attention. Also, we would think of a massage if it were a person. Why not get on that dog and massage those joints and get some blood in there?
Also, we have pain herbs. I mean a little pain relief for the dog could just give it enough relaxation to reduce the inflammation. Hey, I have had patients that, when the vet's said to kill their dog or cat, all they did was give their dog or cat aspirin and the animal got better. I am not necessarily suggesting aspirin, but I would rather take aspirin than be killed.
INTERVIEWER: Pain herbs like what?
SCHULZE: I think one of the best one is valerian; in fact, in Germany, you will find that veterinary medicine is almost purely herbal, especially with horses, but throughout the animal kingdom.
They use valerian, but hops are a great sedative and pain herbs for pets, also. "I have always found that herbs work better for pets than for humans, because animals live closer to nature."
SCHULZE: They are more in tune with nature; they haven't had as many drugs and for some reason I find that pets respond to herbs even faster than people do. So the pain and relaxing herbs work really well and also, if you have an old dog, put him on a lighter diet. If they have arthritis, they might be a little overweight, which hurts the joints, so lighten their food up a little bit, maybe even fast them.
That will wake them up a little bit. That will bring them around from the dead. But, the funny thing was that this lady started doing some hot and cold, some massage, she got the pain herbs out, I think she even used a couple of aspirin, she lightened his diet;
In a couple of weeks she called me to complain that her dog was mounting the neighbor's dog. I'll never forget that. I said, "Don't worry about it." I mean, I didn't know what to do. This was a dog the vet was going to kill! If I had a buck for every time I heard that the vet wanted to kill the animal and the patient did barely anything and the next we knew the animal is running around... animals respond quickly, come back to life so quickly.
I have seen this so many times. "Just a side note here: if you want to really make your animals sick, send them to a kennel."
SCHULZE: I think that if I look at the amount of cats and dogs that have come to my clinic because they were sick I would say that for over half of them, it was after a stay in the kennel. This breaks down into a couple of things.
I think first of all, animals don't have the same sense of reason that we do. You drop them off at a kennel, they think they are going to

note for dosing animals (and children and various weights in adults with herbs, see Clark's rule for dosing found here
Organic herbs are herbs that are grown on good soils without the use of any chemicals such as herbicides, pesticides etc.
Wildcrafted herbs are herbs that are harvested in the wilds form clean areas such as woods, fields, meadow's marshes etc.
Both organic and wildcrafted herbs are better as they contain 7-20 times more of the healing phytochemicals and phytonutrients that cure and prevent disease; conversely conventional herbs are often used as they are cheaper for manufacturers.
Often purchased from 3rd world countries,they might even use DDT, PCP, human feces to fertilize or be grown near roads where pollutants harm them. also they may be further sprayed (even if organic) when arriving to the us for example.
Tinctures are the most effective way, says Schulze who was one of the greatest healers of this century and was trained by the father of modern herbology, Dr John R Christopher who originated the incurables program that Schulze intensified when in the latter years of his underground clinic he mainly worked with patients with terminal and very serious incurable illnesses which astounding success in them reversing their illnesses.
Dr Christopher's website is run by his heirs at herballegacy.com and Dr Schulze's website is herbdoc.com where his products can be purchased and where he has a blog herbdocblog that has info on questions and several free online books of his
Capsules are the poorest way to take herbs as in many cases they are rarely absorbed and can be burned in the powdering process.
Tinctures are the best way to take herbs as they are directly absorbed into the bloodstream bypassing digestion, a boon for those with known and unknown digestive issues.
the 2nd best way to take herbs is teas.
There are two kinds of teas..infusions and decoctions
An infusion is used for the soft part of plants like leaves, flowers and soft berries. It is what one traditionally thinks of as a tea made by pouring boiling water over the herbs and steeping. Always use distilled or steam distilled water when making a tea as being empty it absorbs more of the healing phytochemicals from the plant into the water.
To make a decoction, which is used for hard parts of the plants like roots, bark and hard berries, one boils the herbs and distilled water for 15 minutes, then strains.
To help kid's take herbs, one can add honey or other natural sweetener to it. Or add a strong juice a spoon or two over it to mask taste if they will not take it or you can dilute with a little water or chase with juice.
Schulze even used herbal Popsicle by addign some juice to them and freezing or used tea parties. Caution do not give raw or other honey to children under about 18 minths..use maybe real maple syrup or raw agave or other kind of sweetener.
When trying to make your own tinctures, here is how.
tinctures have been found to still be good decades later. Dr Schulze said he has personally tasted 100 year old tinctures and found them to be fine, so this can be very cost effective.
I have saved up to 90% making my own tinctures which once you do it, you will see it is very easy to do.
You will need your organic bulk herbs, 80 to 100 proof vodka distilled from grain (the cheapest is ok) as your menstrum, glass jars with lids, cheesecloth or other thin natural cloth to strain through, labels and some tinctures bottles which can be reused from ones yo buy and relabeled or purchased often at health food stores or online,
The average tincture dose is 60 drops 3 to 5 times a day is optimal.
60 drops equals 2 dropperfuls. a dropperful is what remains in the eyedropper when you squeeze bulb, insert into tincture, release and withdraw. the eyedropper will look about 1/2 full so one does not have to count drops as this does not have to be super precise drops wise a few one way or the other will not hurt.
think of herbs as strong foods,. They can be mixed. One can separate if possible by 15 minutes. The only time it might be a problems is taking two herbs that have opposite purposes as they might cancel each other out such as taking an emetic herb and an anti-emetic herb at the same time.
Be sure when made they are made they are stored out of light. to do this, one can paint the glass jars on the outside, store in a paper bags, store in dark cupboard or use colored glass such as brown, green or blue glass or white glass.
Always immediately label and put an expiration date about 15 years form the date you strained it, or one can not strain and dip in and strain some out to make a stronger tincture.
When looking for a particular herbs for arthritis, etc such as say yucca type these words into a search engine
organic bulk herbs yucca
One can also add 1 ounce or 4 ounces if needing smaller amounts, Best to purchase cut and sifted c/s over powdered as they do not lose the volatile oils as easily as powdered ones do.
I use a vitamix to mix my tinctures. Y9ou want at least 50 to 755 herbs and 25-50% liquid on tp when the tincture settles or stronger. If you make a tinctures stain and add new herbs and re-tinctures, one can also make a stronger batch.
I like the company mountain rose herb, but there are several places to buy organic or wildcrafted bulk herbs.
Especially for arthritis, one make also make ointments and other external herbs to rub on sore areas as well as taking internally.
Dr Norman Walker was a raw foodist in the 50s and he lived to be somewhere between 97 and 2116. He rarely gave out his age calling himself ageless, but he lived to be at least 97. He had saved his life and health when a young man but grating produce to make juices (before their were juicers) and by eating fresh raw food and living in the country in a clean environment. Like many of our great healers and pioneers, he healed not only himself but went on to heal many more and eventually reach even more people through his books.
He invented the first juicer the top of the line Norwalk juicer (his name) and is called the father of the modern juice movement and author of many books.
One of them is called fruit and vegetable juices and in it, he gives juice prescriptions for various illnesses
Here is what he prescribes for arthritis (be sure to see juice info at bottom before starting)
These are listed in order from most to least helpful but he felt they all were needed as each had a distinct purpose (the numbers before them are the formula numbers from his book)
22 grapefruit (fresh real juice not canned)- at least one pint (2-8 oz cups)
61 carrot and spinach -at least one pint 10 oz carrot 6 oz spinach
6 celery at least one pint
37 carrot celery one pint-formula is 9 oz carrot and 7 oz celery (note if celery tops used, change it to 10 oz carrot and 6 oz celery)
30 carrot beet and cucumber-one [pint of lesser importance than others but also of help) 10 carrot 3 oz beet and 3 oz cuke
Take at intervals of 2 or 3 hours between each combination
He says one of the most effective dissolvers of this inorganic calcium that has deposited in the joints is grapefruit juice
Due to its organic (natural) salicylic acid content.
Canned grapefruit juice has been found to be useless.
He says wintergreen essential oil is also helpful externally (put in a carrier oil like olive or jojoba)
Go here for a complete list of the oils. just need a spoon r so as some essential oils can burn the skin if used straight
http://www.aromaweb.com/articles/whatcarr.asp
Wintergreen like grapefruit juice is also high in salicylic acid
Dr Walker also feels that long term resentments and the accumulation of inorganic calcium deposited in the cartilage of the joints is often the cause
due to magnetic attractions of cartilage and inorganic calcium and thus this inorganic calcium is often deposited there
He says this is all just a good first step as resentments must be acknowledged and banished
Why these juices help-
The celery juice has high organic sodium to help hold the calcium more or less in solution.
The carrot and spinach causes the blood and lymph to help carry these wastes to the colon and facilitate its function and nourishes nerves and muscles in the small and large intestines.
The carrot and celery rebuild and regenerates the cartilage and joints and eventually helps restore them to their normal state.
Again the grapefruit juice is one of the most effective dissolvers of this inorganic calcium that has deposited in the joints due to its organic (natural) salicylic acid content.
he does not say about the last formula other than it is quite helpful.
This process of healing can be painful but eventually one is more active than ever.
It requires willpower and cooperation but worth it, he says.
Notes about juicing from knowledge seeker
1 drink within 20 minutes lest vital elements dissipate do not make and hold over in refrigerator but make fresh each time if you do not, at least fill glass jar to tiptop excluding as much air as possible and cap
2 chew the juice
3 if one uses sprayed non organic produce, but discards all pulp it is the same essentially as drinking organic he says as the pesticides etc are concentrated in the plant fiber the clean organic juice is locked inside the poisonous fiber and when the juicer smashes it the organic juice within the fibers is released.
The juice repels the toxins as oil to water and remains safe as long as no pulp is consumed with it so do not use a vitamix or blender and strain or make whole juice but use a juicer that separates juice from pulp
Dr Christopher healed many arthritics and many incurable diseases. He is called the father of modern herbology and here is his advise for arthritis and rheumatism
Some of these formulas mentioned at this link like b,f and c are best used as a tea (infusion or decoction) while others can be a tea or tincture (see above posts for doses and making these correctly yourself)
his arthritis joint formula--
here the exact portions I looked up in his book School of Natural Healing
Calc-Tea is made of horsetail grass, oat straw, comfrey leaves and lobelia. As explained in the book "Biological Transmutations" the silica in horse tail grass converts to calcium, and the other herbs work in close conjunction with this master calcium herb.
http://www.herballegacy.com/Blood_Stream.html blood cleansing formula is found here and is called the red clover combination. One can also use herbdoc.com the detox (red clover) formula.
here are the ingredients if making yourself Be sure to use organic or wildcrafted herbs
Here are the ingredients:
2 parts Red clover blossoms
1 part Lobelia herb
1 part Cayenne pepper
2 parts Chaparral herb
1 part Garlic juice [make this in a juicer or blender]
To the above, add one part of any of the following you can get your hands on:
Burdock seed and root Poke root Yellow dock Goldenseal root Oregon grape root Bloodroot root sap European mistletoe Periwinkle flowers
Make a tincture of these herbs and take 4 to 12 full dropperfuls (35 drops each) of this tincture daily added to some juice or water. IMPORTANT NOTE: Please make sure your red clover blossoms are deep violet purple. This is the color the blossoms have when they are at their peak.

In addtion to trying to eat a diet high in protein and that is around 80% alakaline, try these things
-Raw potato (the book dining in the raw has a tasty raw potato salad).
-Raw potato juice- drink in am on empty stomach (also helps diabetes). Cut into french fry cuts, and put in water overnight, Drink water, Discard potato. This can also help if one has undigested food in the stool.
-Also can juice raw potato in the am 50-50 with water
-Lime is solvent of uric acid (which main cause of arthritis)
-Green juices with carrot celery and beet (10 oz carrot, and 3 oz each of the other veggies) This is specific to arthritis
-Also pineapple juice fresh
-Juice fast every 2 months
_Take bromelain (this is also in the pineapple juice)
-Take raw garlic
-Do a banana fast 3-4 days only bananes
-Eat more fermented foods
-Zinc needed
-Lemon to water helps alkalize body
-Take baths with 1 cup of sea salt
-DO VINEGAR BATH:
This is used when the body is too acidic. This is a quick way of restoring the acid-alkaline balance. 1 cup to 2 quarts of 100% apple cider vinegar to a bathtub of warm water. Soak 40 to 45 minutes. This is excellent for excess uric acid in the body and especially for the joints, arthritis, bursitis, tendonitis, and gout.

Question 1: What could be done in a case where cervical arthritis is present, where X-rays show a narrowing of the interspace between C-5, C-6 and C-7, and where anterior and posterior spurs, heading for spondylosis, are present? Is there any way whereby the calcium deposits can be removed, extracted or eliminated to free the body from its painful burden?
Answer 1: We have seen numerous cases of the condition described in this question in most areas of the spine all the way from the Atlas Axis down to the tail base. After beginning the therapy with cleaning and mucusless dieting, they followed this procedure: make a fomentation of a tea combination which we call "Bone, flesh and cartilage." It is also called "comfrey combination", and consists of six parts oak bark, three parts marshmallow root, three parts mullein herb, two parts wormwood, one part lobelia, one part scullcap, six parts comfrey root, three parts black walnut bark or leaves and three parts gravel root.
Soak the combined teas in distilled water at a rate of one pint of distilled water to one ounce of combined herbs. Continue the soaking from four to six hours and then simmer the preparation for thirty minutes followed by a straining. After the straining, simmer the tea down to one half of its volume. If desired, a volume of natural vegetable glycerine equivalent to one fourth the volume of the tea may then be added. For example, if there is a gallon of the tea after the straining, simmer it down to two quarts and add one pint of the vegetable glycerine
Soak some flannel, cotton or other material except for synthetics which should never be used and wrap the soaked cloth fomentations around the malfunctioning area and then cover with plastic, oil paper or oiled silk. In turn cover the area with toweling and leave on all night. Repeat this for six nights a week until relief is accomplished and the calcified deposits disappear. Also, drink 1/4 cup of the finished tea, with or without the glycerine, but diluted with 3/4 cup of distilled water. This should be done three times a day for six days of each week until relief occurs.
Arthritis-=help from Dr Christopher, Schulze's teacher
Note-one way Dr Christopher did this for problems with neck or back was to use a cap and sew a 6 inch strip of cloth and cover that with 6 inch piece of plastic so it trails down the back. One could then secure with a belt or tape to try to keep it on all night.
The mucusless diet links were in another post above or go to herballegacy.com and type in search and also go to articles and look for the 2 articles there. Cleansing refers to cleansing the elimination organs like bowels, kidneys, liver, blood, lungs,. skin etc (go http://curezone.com/schulze/handbook/incur5.asp and scroll down to blue print for 5 day cleanses, colon cleanse, etc get his herbs at herbdoc.com)

Remember Homeopathy treats the patient not the disease or disorder, so what and how you feel is how Homeopathy treats and cures you .
Avoid the foods which give you constipation or any sort of digestive problems and avoid Chocolates, Coffee, Mints and Red Meat while taking Homeopathic Remedies, and keep the remedies away from heat, direct sunlight, perfumes and scents and please do not store in the refrigerator.
as arthritis so affects the quality of one's life but people tend to not think of it much when healing except for the sufferers of it as they might a disease like cancer or heart disease
TRY NATEUCA AUSTRALIAN pharmaceutical grade eucalyptus oil for pain. It is lightnig fast and it has changed my life and ability to execise once again. It real essential oil not synthetic. You will be very satisfied.
I agree with the methods but its not the acids that work its the alkaline. Lemons are extremely alkaline as is apple cider vinegar. An acid body creates disease and disease can ot be cured as long as the body is acid. An under acid stomach will create acid blood and disease so it is very important for the stomach to have proper digestive acids so the gut does not leak poisons into the blood stream.
