It’s such a beautiful time of year. The grass is growing, the birds are singing. The temperatures are rising, the days are longer. Spring is one of the temperate seasons of the year, the transition from winter to summer, a time of re-growth, rebirth, renewal…and cleansing! Spring is a time of new ideas and a time of change. Spring is the most rejuvenating and life-giving season of the year!

So it makes sense that springtime is also the perfect time to rejuvenate our bodies and our minds. It’s time to cleanse and detoxify and get rid of all the negative buildup that has occurred over the winter months. Winter is the most difficult time in all of nature.  Animals have natural coping mechanisms, such as increased fur and body fat, and hibernation.  As humans, we are more highly developed and have to learn to adapt to nature’s conditions. As things in nature slow down, we naturally have the tendency to slow down as well.

As spring rolls around, old health conditions tend to be brought to resolution.  This can mean that those symptoms may be exacerbated easily. We may see evidence of breaking out more with skin rashes, blemishes, acne and boils – our body’s natural way of cleansing the system. However, we may see other signs of the bodies need to cleanse such as, the eyes may look unclear, the breath may be foul, or one of the most prominent signs, smelly feet

While we are on the subject of cleansing the body, we must understand that a healthy mind cannot live in a chaotic body. Often, according to science, depression and anxiety is due to a chemical imbalance in the brain. When your brain doesn’t receive enough glucose it can cause this chemical imbalance. Using artificial sweeteners is a sure fire way to cause this imbalance, as the brain is unable to process these sweeteners. As a result these sweeteners build up in neurological tissues; many medications can build up in these tissues as well. These buildups can impede the brain from functioning correctly. Therefore, by naturally cleansing our system we help our bodies get rid of this burden.  As we detoxify the physical body it allows for clearer functioning of the brain.

It’s important to remember that cleansing impacts the whole body, there are world-wide studies that rank cleansing high on the list for improving our general state of health and overall well-being!

At Herbal Solutions we have several formulas to assist our bodies and our minds with cleansing. Some of my favorites are:  General Blood and Liver Cleanser – Moderate, which is a metabolic cleanser  that allows the liver to normalize, enhancing its naturally detoxifying functions; and Extensive Candida Cleanse, which rids the body of large amounts of yeast and other organisms to help take a burden off of the system. According to medical data and science research, yeast is one of the biggest causes of diseases. As a matter of fact, 80% of system failures and diseases can be attributed to an over abundance of yeast, such as anxiety and depression and polyglandular failures.  Keeping yeast levels in check is KEY to maintain good health!

If you want to discuss which formula is best for you or just have general questions on cleansing, feel free to leave a comment below.

In the meantime, enjoy life, take time to be with nature and let go of the past. Take time to notice what’s blooming all around you and nurture what’s inside of you!

Our bodies’ healing and maintenance of health or disease is a function of energy.

Actually, EVERYTHING is an expression of energy and based on fundamental Universal Laws. We see energy expressed everywhere – in gas, liquid and solid forms. Energy is also present in an unrealized form, undetected by our sensory organs. It’s this spectrum of energy that gives rise to the physical universe. Scientifically, all matter, on earth and throughout the universe is composed of the same fundamental elements. All matter is energy.
This means that everything we see, touch, smell – from wood, to metal, to glass, to the human being and that which we don’t see is energy. This energy is expressed as varying vibratory frequencies and often measurable. For instance, middle C is vibrating at a frequency of 250 hz per second all the time. Even people vibrate at different frequencies.

The spectrum of energy used in the healing phenomena is at a far greater rate than those normally perceived. When these high frequency emanations enter the human system there is an intelligence that transduces these frequencies into utilizable forms – for regulation of bodily functions, for regeneration of tissue, and for the basic functions of life. We call this energy “soul” or “Divine Intelligence”. Everyone has this; there are no exceptions. In the human system this energy is converted into tissues, normal everyday function and higher thoughts and aspirations. Regulating and mediating this energy in humans is our autonomic nervous system. This is what keeps us alive when we are asleep or unconscious. It is a part of the subconscious mind.

The functions and intensity of this energy can be manipulated by the average human being – and has been done throughout human history, though not often conveyed to the public at large. These forces are not supernatural, they are well known within the scientific boundaries and can be demonstrated repeatedly. Some individuals possess an ability to garner more of this energy from the universal flow and are called “healers”. But every individual has the ability to be a healer, simply by being a conveyer of this energy and understanding basic, though little understood, laws.

No one needs to tell you that we are in a flu epidemic. You and lots of people you know have been or are currently feeling miserable. Many are getting this nasty condition more than once – and we haven’t seen the worst of this yet. Nearly every day we are hearing reports in the news media and from the Centers for Disease Control that a flu epidemic has arrived early and has yet to hit its peak. Hospital emergency rooms are swamped with people and advice being given by the medical community is to get a flu vaccination and stay home the minute you experience the symptoms.

But what we don’t hear in the media is an understanding of just WHAT is the flu or colds. From the natural healthcare perspective, flu and colds are external expressions of fundamental imbalances in the body. The body’s microorganisms (flora and fauna) are out of balance, meaning there are too many myco (fungal) organisms and too few beneficial bacteria, like probiotics. The body goes into a healing crisis to correct this imbalance by taking corrective measures, such as entrapping organisms by secreting large amounts of mucous. Body aches and chills are signs of this congestion.

You can assist your body’s natural efforts to regain balance and shorten the time you will be miserable with the following tips:
• Add ½ teaspoon each of baking soda and salt into a glass of warm water and use as a gargle. Place a ¼ teaspoon each of baking soda and salt in water into a neti pot to clear the sinuses. Salt naturally helps to lower bacteria and fungus. If used at the first signs of congestion, further misery can be avoided.

• Add baking soda and salt of any kind (1/2 cup) to a hot bath. This produces perspiration, which also eliminates toxins.

• Much of a cold’s symptoms of discomfort are due to dehydration. Drinking one to two liters of water within one hour helps to make all of the body’s fluids more dilute and more efficiently eliminated.

• Place a pinch of fully-mineralized salt in each glass of water you drink throughout the day. This allows you to re-salinate your body and inhibit the growth of organisms. Blood salinity, which is regulated by the pituitary gland, should be the same salinity as sea water. You can ingest up to two teaspoons of fully mineralized salt if you spread it out in glasses of water throughout the day. Taking the salt all at one time will produce diarrhea.

• Drink 1 tablespoon of vinegar in 1/3 glass of water to help cleanse and rebalance.

• Get lots of rest, especially if the cold has moved into the bronchioles or lungs.

• Keep the air humidified to avoid cracked membranes in the nasal passages which allow organisms to get into the system. Use a humidifier or place a wet towel on a hanger or boil a pot of water.

• Dress warmly, especially around the head, feet and neck. Keep these areas warm to avoid putting additional stress on the thyroid gland, which is already overwhelmed by the condition.

Herbal Solutions has many formulas that will help you combat Colds and Flu:
Cold and Flu, General Fungal, Micro-Balancer, Chronic Nasal Congestion, Lung Congestion, Immune System Enhancing Formula and Immune System Optimizer.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and the World Health Organization, American society has seen a drastic increase in disease rates over the past 20 years.  The increase is generally seen in digestive health, but conditions like headaches, food allergies, skin lesions and juvenile cancer are also on the rise. I wonder if this is related to our food? Recently I’ve seen some studies linking our health to processed foods and GMOs. Was it a mistake to trust the companies who claim (with the FDA) that these foods are good for human consumption?

There has to be cause and effect related to this increase in disease.  The only connection that makes sense is our food.  While other countries face similar environmental challenges – like pollution, disease rates in the rest of the world are more normal while ours have been on the rise. The exceptions are in countries that have diets and processed foods similar to America’s like Australia, Mexico, India and South Africa.  In these countries, the disease rate also shows elevation – in both humans and animals.

Pets Getting Same Diseases as Humans

We know there’s a problem when our pets get the same diseases that we do. In fact now there is a big push to clean up the pet food industry. These same non-food items that make our pets sick make us sick.  Who’s cleaning up human food?  Often without realizing it and often because we believe these are safe foods, we consume non-foods and they can end up hurting us.

Disease Diagnoses Often Overlook Cause

When it comes to diagnosing disease, descriptive terms are used pretty often.  No one seems to think these diseases are related to something else, even though we all know that there is cause and effect.  The cause of the disease is listed as unremarkable, undocumented and unknown.  Sometimes it seems the experts would prefer to treat the symptoms of the disease rather than the cause. Instead actuary tables are constantly being created showing life time medication use for described conditions.  Is this medicine or economics? If we got rid of what’s making us sick we wouldn’t want to buy medicine anymore. Today symptom therapy is used in all of healthcare in the western world.

Natural Health Methods Seek Out Cause

When I look into other types of treatment like homeopathy, herbology and other natural methods they are full of knowledge and information that may help us actually fix what’s wrong with our bodies. In these fields I also see a lot more interest in what’s causing disease. It’s obvious we need a change and these other disciplines might be our only other sources for help and assistance.

Are you experiencing more frequent occurrences of digestive distress?  Have you noticed this in your loved ones, friends and co-workers as well? According to medical science there has been a 40 fold increase in the amount of gastrointestinal complaints over the past 20 years.  The gut is the interface between the body’s environment and the external environment, so it’s natural for there to be signs of trouble or complaints associated with it.  Most of the distress is due to non-food items in the diet, not just additives or pesticides (which we seem to have pretty much adapted to).  These non-food items include doping agents, hormones and genetically modified organisms (GMOs) that have been increasingly infused into our food system.

The preponderance of non-food items in our diet is damaging to the human GI tract, foremost in children, whose guts are still developing, the elderly and those compromised by other health conditions.  The best way to prevent this damage is to avoid packaged or processed foods and low-end, inexpensive restaurants (this because we are assuming that they are using the cheapest, lowest quality sources of foods available).

Yet even when taking the best of care and being the most vigilant about our food choices, GI tract disturbances can occur.  Following are some useful natural health care tips that will assist your digestive process:

• The tongue is one of our guardians that tells us what is acceptable to the system or not.  Often we override its impulse with our intellectual reasoning.  To use this guardian in its highest capabilities, one should learn to recognize its signals, which can range from a feeling of queasiness to mild revulsion to unsavory emotions.  Regardless of the message, learning one’s own body language can be most helpful in choosing – or refusing – food that is in our best interest.
• If  bloating occurs  within 15 minutes of eating, one can surmise that what has been eaten can’t get through this major stage of digestion smoothly.  Try to avoid that particular food and  its source.  Swallowing a ¼ tsp of salt (taken by hand) or activated charcoal tablets can also relieve bloating and gas.
• GI disturbance an hour or more after ingestion (including belching or lower intestinal flatulence) can indicate that the gut is disturbed and is attempting to balance itself by expelling or correcting its contents or flora.   While these symptoms are often viewed as distasteful, from the inside looking out, it’s totally normal and natural.  The body is acting in conflict as one outer aspect tries to suppress the symptoms, and the inner aspect tries to promote the symptoms.  One can ameliorate both aspects by ingesting 1 -2 teaspoons of baking soda mixed in a quarter of a glass of water.  Also, make sure that the gut flora is intact, and check to see if you have ingested canola oil, which should be avoided.
• If one experiences nausea at any stage of digestion, swallowing a few granules of salt (taken by hand) can be beneficial.  If these occurrences are chronic, consider colonic irrigation or other forms of detox.  However, these remedies are only going to work if you stop ingesting the problem.

If any of these conditions persist or become chronic, see a healthcare practitioner.

Herbal Solutions also provides these proprietary herbal formulas and supplements that address and correct gastrointestinal conditions:  Herbal Support for GMO Exposure, Digestive Tract Rehab, DGR includes colon, Liver toner, Colon Health, General Candida Cleanse, Extensive Candida Cleanse, and Ultra Flora Plus

Six months out of the hospital saw me aging fast and working a nine to five in order to hold onto a small apartment in the city. It was surprising how little had actually changed in the world. I mean sure everyone looked and smelled different. In some cases the people were downright disturbing. But the sun still rose in the east, set in the west and in between people worked played and did their best to survive. Just like always. I kept taking my meds occasionally but I really didn’t need them so much once I left the hospital.

I spent my free time with other old geezers, talking about the good old days when chickens were small and tasty, among other things. Funny thing is I was still twice the age of most of those old farts but I still looked worlds better. From them I learned all about genetically modified food, how my tomatoes were part frog and salamander. That stuff wasn’t even science fiction in my day. The same goes for hormone enhanced and mass produced livestock. I guess some things were different after all. I went to the hospital for my regular checkups, got shots and even managed to get myself off some of those prescriptions. I was sitting in the waiting area before one of those checkups when a ridiculous looking man in a Hawaiian shirt and panama hat sat down beside me. He hadn’t brought anything to do and when he didn’t reach for one of the magazines laying about I knew I was in trouble. “I’m here for my daughter,” he said. “Hm.” That’s all I said. “She’s going to be giving birth soon.”

“Congratulations,” I said and stuck my face further into the magazine I was reading. “All of a sudden she’s worried about nutrition, pesticides, hormones and the like but she still doesn’t see the big picture.  I’ve been giving her some minerals and heirloom vegetables from my garden: those haven’t had their DNA scrambled.” He laughed. “It’s amazing how priorities change. Just a few months ago she couldn’t have cared less about that sort of thing.” I’ll admit at that point I was a little interested but I didn’t own up to it right away. Instead I just mumbled, “funny how that happens huh?” “You bet,” he said. “I try to stay on top of things like that: nutrition, holistic healing, you name it. Do you know how hard it is to find good food?” I laughed at that one. “You’re preaching to the choir,” I said. “What’s you’re name anyway?” He asked. “Steve Williams.” “Just call me Bob,” he replied. We shook hands and after that day things really started to turn around for me. Bob was definitely not your typical old man, he was an almanac of do it yourself healthcare. He called it the natural way. Bob ran every day, for starters. The guy drank more water than I thought was possible and everything he ate he made at home. I’ve never seen him take anything more complicated than a cough drop but he took all sorts of minerals, vitamins, teas, you name it. The most interesting part is that he never had that horrible breath problem many people seemed to have, or scaly skin like my doctor. In fact, when I actually found myself gagging on my own breath I decided to ask him about it. So I gave Bob a call and we met for a quick lunch in the park. I rushed through the small talk, stuffed down my sandwich and finally popped the big question. I said, “Bob. You know I’ve been asleep for awhile.” He just nodded, chewing hungrily at his own sandwich. “Well when I woke up things were different. Not just cars and planes that sorta stuff but people too. People today are not the same as they used to be.” That got his full attention. “Well everyone’s a bit shorter they say. What else have you noticed?” I cleared my throat. Bob and I had become fast friends and I shared quite a bit with him but I had no idea how he’d react to my next few words. “Well,” I said, “everyone stinks, for starters.” Bob laughed. “That’s nothing new!” “I don’t mean their personalities although folk were a lot friendlier way back when. They smell Bob, like rotting garbage sometimes or worse. Now I’m getting it too. And what’s with all these people in the hospital day in and day out?” Bob just laughed. “You want me to tell you the meaning of life while I’m at it too?” I smiled and waited patiently for an answer. “Well,” he said “health in general just ain’t what it used to be my friend. In your day it was pure unadulterated food all around, relatively clean air, water. All that’s different now. You want good produce you have to grow it yourself. Looking for good meat? Good luck.” I laughed. Bob continued, “All of that has to add up to something right? Now the smell that’s a lot simpler. Yeast.” I lifted an eyebrow. “What do you mean? There’s nothing new about that.” Bob nodded and said, “You’re right but it’s in a lot more food now and some yeast is genetically modified to be more potent.” “I still don’t get it,” I said. “Yeast is fungus,” he explained, “and fungus smells. If you get too much of it then you smell too. It can also cause excessive gas, bloating acid reflux you name it.” I thought about that for a moment then something occurred to me. “You don’t smell Bob. But here you are eating a sandwich too so what gives?”

“This bread doesn’t have any yeast,” he said. “Nothing I eat does which is why I always eat at home there’s no telling what you’re eating out there.” I would’ve laughed if anyone else told me that story but coming from Bob it seemed somehow to make sense. His lack of bad breath or lizard skin also helped to sway me in his direction. “Alright,” I said. “Just tell me what I have to do.”

Bob smiled ear to ear and started talking again.

Here’s Chapter Two of the story…

The food was bad. That’s all I could think as I shoveled down smelly, but somehow tasteless chicken and watery, equally bland potatoes. The hospital food in my day was never any good but it was five star fare compared to the slop I was getting. It never seemed to satisfy either, no matter what I ate I was still hungry but no matter how hungry I got the food really didn’t taste any better. I wondered if the food was meant to keep people out of the hospital but as I lay in bed the next few days I saw countless people coming, and staying. It seemed like everyone had G.I.R.D. these days, or as it’s called now, acid reflux. Or skin problems. Or headaches, bowel problems you name it. Not just old people either, youngsters showed up just as often. I laughed at first when I saw them coming in with those complaints. My old doc would send me to buy baking soda for my rash, or tell me to drink water for my bowels. Then he’d tell me to quit wasting his time. Not these days though, everyone was leaving with brand new prescriptions. Come to think of it even the doctors were different. When they showed up they’d just scribble a prescription or two onto a sheet of paper and leave. If my doctor had been so short with me I’d ask him for a refund and that’s for starters. The place felt like a revolving door: in, out and back in again. I could not wait to get out. The longer I stayed, the worse I felt if you could believe it. My sinus itching turned into full blown headaches within a week, and I picked up a recurring cough from somewhere. The docs set me up with some pills for the headaches which made me nauseous right before they put me to sleep, and a cough syrup that actually worked pretty well. No word on what was causing my coughs and headache, but at least with the pills I could put them off until later. I took to walking around the hospital grounds the minute they let me out of bed. Fresh air had always been the best remedy so in my last days there I spent most of my time outside. It was about three weeks before they brought my test results back and when they did the doctors had some surprising news. A whole team came to my room for that one: doctor stinky as well as another man and a woman. They all seemed excited about something and I really couldn’t understand why three doctors wanted to come and talk to an old relic like me. They all looked me up and down but it was the woman who spoke first. “Mr. Williams, good afternoon. My name is Doctor Johnson, to my left here is Doctor Ford, and I do believe you’ve already met Doctor Nichols….” That was the guy who’d come before, when I first woke up. He nodded politely while Dr. Ford simply stared. “Hi.” I said. “So, bad news then?”  Dr. Ford just shuffled his feet, while Nichols smiled. Again Dr. Johnson spoke, “There were some complications…” “Abnormalities”, blurted Dr. Nichols. Johnson glared at him angrily. The quiet doctor just smiled to himself. Dr. Johnson continued, “These days mr. Williams it is common for bacteria and fungi to outnumber human cells in our patients. Since 2012 it has been noted by the Human Microbiome Project that bacteria in healthy people outnumber human cells 10 to 1. That’s not the case for you.” Dr. Nichols jumped in again there, “we think you may be more vulnerable to today’s bacteria, especially strains resistant to antibiotics.” Johnson looked like she wanted to slap Nichols. I was more concerned with what they’d both said. “You’re saying I’m more human than the average…person. And that makes me vulnerable?” I couldn’t help thinking back Dr. Nichols’ scaly skin or his abominable breath problem…come to think of it a lot of people I’d spoken to had the same issues, or worse. Many of them were patients. My mind wandered back to my first impression waking up in the hospital; that I’d been abducted into some alien laboratory even as Dr. Nichols answered my question. It was obvious he wanted to do all the talking, “Proportionally you could say that sure, but we’re concerned that your immune system won’t be able to handle all the new strains of organisms that exist today.” Immediately I could see where they were going with all this. “I’m not staying in the hospital”, I said. “I haven’t died in here so trust me I’ll do just fine out in the real world.” Dr. Johnson chimed in first, “we expected that answer mr. Williams and don’t worry. We have a regimen of steroids and antibiotics that we want you to take daily, and we do want you here for regular check-ups as well.” Antibiotics were a new one on me…Didn’t seem logical seeing as how I could easily be classified as “biotic”. “How long am I gonna be taking this stuff?” I asked, they all exchanged glances on that one. Not even Dr. Nichols seemed interested in fielding that question. I had the distinct impression that most people didn’t ask. “Well”, said Dr. Johnson, “We’ll need to monitor your progress closely in the short term, but beyond that we’ll just have to play it by ear. The prescriptions are good for two years.” “But aren’t you worried about the stuff that resists medication? What is this all gonna do for me anyway?” Finally the silent third doctor, who’d been watching me like I was some sort of lab rat decided to chime in. “They’ll do what your body does, only better.” I snorted at that. “Sounds like my body’s been doing pretty good on its own, if you ask me.” Their brows started to furrow, almost in unison. “Fine I’ll take ‘em,” I said. “If it gets me outta here…”

Hi everyone! I came across a very interesting story that has a fresh and profound take on some of the health concerns that have really become a problem today. Imagine waking up after years of sleep to find the world, and human beings have changed in unexpected ways.  This is a short story but I’ll be posting it by chapter, so keep an eye out for the next episode!

(don’t worry it’ll all make sense in the end. Don’t forget to comment!)

When I went to sleep on August 24^th, the year was 1938. I had a very usual and boring evening at home until I was finally too tired to do anything. So I laid down in my bed with a slice of honey comb and as usual I sucked on that until I fell asleep. I woke up feeling beyond groggy with a big sneeze and coughing fit. My throat and sinuses itched and tingled incessantly, even my eyes burned and watered. The first thing I noticed (aside from my breathing troubles) was the smell. Sort of like an old museum smell but with lots of cleaner layered on top of it. Not realizing I was in a hospital I leaned over to check the clock…and that’s when I saw it: the tv on the wall. For a long time I stared in horror and amazement at the people in miniature talking and dancing about on that tiny screen. You see when I had gone to bed more than a century ago, the only tv around was in the movie theaters, black and white. I was understandably caught by surprise when l saw that tiny box with better picture than paramount ever managed sitting right there on the wall of my new space age bedroom. In fact at that time, looking around at all the gadgets on the walls and my bed I actually started to wonder if I’d been captured by some alien race who was just waiting for their chance to shrink me down and stick me in that box on the wall. I figured if aliens had taken me that would explain the smell, and all this bad air. However I was pleasantly surprised when a tall smiling human in a white lab coat entered my “bedroom”. “Well, good morning Steven,” he said. It took some doing but I managed to croak out an answer for him, “thank you but where am I?” He paused a minute and an odd expression crossed his face, then he pulled up a stool and sat real close. “Well, you’re in a hospital sir and you’ve been sleeping here for over a hundred years. Hell you’ve been here longer than I have and I’m on the board!” He laughed at that, smothering me in a cloud of the worst smelling breath I had ever experienced. I choked and gagged so much he actually turned and started to holler at the nurse. Thank God for that because once he turned away I could finally get my breath back. “No I’m fine doc, just a little surprised is all.” I figured being a doctor, the man had to know about his breath problem so kept my complaints to myself, for now. He turned back to me then, all smiles. I braced myself, he was about to talk: “don’t worry; you’re actually not the only person to wake up here after an extended sleep like that. We’ll take care of you, help get you back on your feet. But first, how about some food?” I just nodded. I was still holding my breath. He smiled, patted my shoulder with a scaly, oddly mottled hand and left the same way he had come. I sighed and laid my head on the pillow. I had a lot on my mind: questions like what happened to me, my friends and family. What would I do now to survive? I felt certain that despite all the time I’d missed, hospitals still would not be free.  Finally I thought of that doctor, who smelled like he’d eaten raw sewage for breakfast…and his strange, scaly skin. Maybe he was an alien after all…

We all get headaches right? I get headaches, sometimes pretty frequently. Usually it happens when deadlines are coming up, or just when I need my brain on the job. I never knew why I get headaches, in fact I only knew one way of dealing with a headache: painkillers. Usually ibuprofen prescribed by my doctor. I never knew why or how exactly I got my headaches so naturally I just put it down to stress. That is until I was hit by a serious headache this weekend and so I decided that I just had to find out what natural remedies could do for headaches. After a little research I came up with some interesting info so I decided to share it here! For starters I learned that headaches are actually the body’s way of telling us something’s off. Pretty obvious, right? It turns out that headaches can occur for any number of reasons, and if we know where the pain is, its actually pretty easy figure out what’s wrong. So let’s get started. The first step is figuring out where you have a headache. There are four areas to choose from here: the front back, top, and either side of the head. So here is where things get interesting. If you’re feeling pain at the front of your head it usually means you have a sinus headache so for you a neti pot filled with water and a little bit of salt and baking soda should do the trick. If your pain is at the back of your head it can actually mean your back or neck are out of alignment. Sorry but you’ll have to find a good chiropractor or naprapath for that one! If you get headaches right at the top of your head that usually means you’re dehydrated so drinking water is the best solution. Now when you have pain at the sides of your head or near the temples it usually indicates blood toxicity, which means that toxins in your blood have thrown off your natural chemistry. That had me a little worried but it turns out there are some simple solutions for these as well. One way is to drink plenty of water which dilutes your blood and helps to promote a healthy balance. Blood cleansers are also good for these since they’ll help you get rid of the toxins that are causing your headaches!
