Fall is a time of year when sinus-y stuff starts to happen.
Many people attribute sinus problems to the spring, but fall is also a major time of difficulty for sinus sufferers.
Here are some reasons why:
It is true that our external environment has a huge role to play in attributing to sinus problems, but our internal environment (inside our bodies)has more of an influence on sinus conditions than the outside of our body.
If our internal environment is in “good shape”, then it can help combat what we are exposed to externally.
What constitutes “good shape”?
Why is balanced ecology in the gut such an important factor as it relates to sinus health?
The entire alimentary canal (the gastrointestinal system starting with the mouth and ending with the anus) is made up of mucous membrane. We often call the abdominal portion of the gastrointestinal system “the gut”.
When the gut has a good ecological terrain of balanced flora it can influence the other areas of the body that have the same mucous membrane tissue.
Think about where else mucous membrane is in the body:
Respiratory System |
Urogenital System |
|
|
|
|
 |
 |
These areas are often affected by candida or yeast overgrowth, which can lead to symptoms which are often called ‘infections’ (many times they are infections, but many times they are just an overgrowth of yeast).
In the years of my practice, I saw many people with sinus conditions. This condition was often accompanied by other problems in the body – such as allergies, skin disorders, frequent headaches, depression, stomach problems, and colon issues to name a few.
Many of these people loved and often ate these foods:
And very often these folks were constipated.
Along with eating an balanced alkaline diet, here are two very effective ways to deal with sinus issues:
Cleansing the colon can keep the overgrowth of candida at bay. Sinus conditions clear up when the colon is clear.
As a former Wellness Center owner, I used to observe that when people had colonics with good results, they almost always simultaneously experienced sinus drainage. Any sinus congestion they had before their cleansing often disappeared with the good results of the cleanse.
Nutritional products that you can use at home for cleansing, and even foods that help cleanse the body, can offer the same results as it relates to sinuses.
This is a no brainer. If you understand how therapeutic essential oils create an environment where overgrowth or imbalance of micro-organisms can NOT take place – in other words the overgrowth of yeast, fungus, and any pathogenic organisms will not occur, then you can see why using these for sinus problems can be very helpful.
Many microbes, especially the ones that don’t serve us, love to hang out in dark moist environments – and that is exactly what our sinus cavities are (note how they are called ‘cavities’) -a dark moist environment.
Inhalation, diffusing, and even taking essential oils internally can be extremely helpful for sinus sufferers. If you want to take them internally, make sure the label has “Supplemental Facts” on it (overseen by the FDA) – this way you know you can them take internally. You may be hard pressed to find that on labels in essential oils, but you will find it in Young Living oils – that is one of the many reasons I love Young Living. - Marilee Tolen, RN

A bit of information that you might like to know about —an entomologist (insect expert), has been telling people that there is an epidemic of bed bugs now occurring in America.
Recently I have heard on the news that several stores in NYC have had to close due to bed bug problems, as well as a complete mall in New Jersey. He says that since much of our clothing, sheets, towels, etc. now comes from companies outside of America, (sad but true), even the most expensive stores sell foreign clothing from China, Indonesia, etc. The bed bugs are coming in on the clothing as these countries do not consider them a problem. He recommends that if you buy any new clothing, even underwear and socks, sheets, towels, etc. that you bring them into the house and put them in your clothes dryer for at least 20 minutes. The heat will kill them and their eggs. DO NOT JUST HANG NEWLY PURCHASED CLOTHES IN YOUR CLOSET! You should hang them in an area where you are diffusing therapeutic quality essential oils– or place them in the dryer along with a sachet of essential oils or a cloth with oils on it. It does not matter what the price range is of the clothing, or if the outfit comes from the most expensive store known in the U.S. They still get shipments from these countries and the bugs can come in a box of scarves or anything else for that matter. That is the reason why so many stores, many of them clothing stores have had to shut it down in NYC and other places. All you need is to bring one item into the house that has bugs or eggs and you will go to hell and back trying to get rid of them. He travels all over the country as an advisor to many of these stores, as prevention and after they have the problem.
Enlarged Photo of Bed Bug's Head- showing biting parts.
As if you needed something else to worry about, bedbugs, those pests from the old bedtime rhyme are making a comeback. More of a nuisance than a health hazard, they’re showing up to suck blood from people in hotels, college dorms, and hospitals. Take an informative look at bedbugs: what they are, where they lurk, and how to spot them before they get you.
The bug is the spot on the right, enlarged is to the left.
Bedbugs are small, flat, wingless insects with six legs that, like mosquitoes, feed on blood from animals or people. They range in color from almost white to brown, but they turn rusty red after feeding. The common bedbug doesn’t grow much longer than 0.2 inches (0.5 centimeters) and can be seen by the naked eye to the astute observer. Bedbugs get their name because they like to hide in bedding and mattresses.
During hotel stays, keep luggage off the floor and zipped
Bedbugs are most often found in hotels, hostels, shelters, and apartment complexes where lots of people come and go. Because bedbugs hide in small crevices, they can hitch a ride into your home on luggage, pets, furniture, clothing, boxes, and other objects. Bedbugs are found worldwide, but are most common in developing countries. Once rare in North America, they may be on the rise due, in part, to increases in international travel. This is when you will want to use your Thieves Spray and Purification Bed bugs feed while you sleeping with peak activity just before dawn.
May be present in Hotels, imported fabrics; they like wood and love your blood!Bed Bugs "Tight" in the corners of the mattress edging.

Feeding Habits
These nocturnal creatures can hide in beds, floors, furniture, wood, and paper trash during the day. We humans usually become their dinner during the night, with peak biting activity just before dawn.They can obtain their meal in as little as three minutes, after which they are engorged and drop off the host, then crawl into a hiding place to digest their meal. Bedbugs can live for 10 months, and can go weeks without feeding. To stop the itching use Tranquil , lavender, Purification
Bed bugs leaves red itchy bites on the skin often in rows
Bites may appear in rows.
Bed Bug Feeding- Like Sleeping with a Vampire.Bites may appear in rows.
Amazingly, these sneaky little bloodsuckers dine on you without waking you. You don’t feel their stealthy bite because they inject a numbing agent into your body, along with an anticoagulant to keep your blood flowing as they suck. The first sign of bedbugs may be itchy, red bites on the skin, usually on the arms or shoulders. Bedbugs tend to leave straight rows of bites. Scratching bites can lead to infection.
Thieves Spray, hand sanitizer and cleanser as well as household cleaner can help keep your family healthy during flu season as well.
Bedbug bites do not usually require treatment. If a secondary infection occurs (usually from scratching), apply Rose Ointment adding an extra drop of Melrose in a dab or Thieves oil and apply Thieves oil around the infection if open not direct into the sore. Take Thieves in a capsule. In these more severe cases, you may need to see your doctor.
Bedbugs are more of a nuisance than a health hazard. In a recent study, researchers reviewed 53 recent studies on bedbugs and their health and medical effects. The results showed that although bedbugs have been blamed for the spread of up to 40 different human diseases, there is little evidence to suggest they are carriers of human disease.
Don’t assume your bites are bedbugs. Bites can be hard to identify, even for doctors. Rule out mosquitoes, fleas, mites, and biting gnats by conducting a visual inspection. It’s best to collect and identify bedbugs to confirm bites. Look for the bugs themselves or their bloodstains, especially along the seams of mattresses. Further, look for dark spots of insect waste where bedbugs might crawl into hiding places on furniture, walls, and floors. wash clothing and bedding in hot water and then again hot water that will not burn finger and added 1 cap full Thieves Cleaner and 6 drops of purification. Then dry on hot.
Get rid of infested mattresses and box springs or cover them with a plastic mattress bag to trap the bugs. Wash clothes and bedding in hot water, and dry on high heat. Clean furniture and vacuum cracks in wood floors and doors where bugs may hide. Shake out suitcases. Use your thieves spray and thieves cleaner the cracks of floors or bed frames. The oils are great for YOU but the bugs do not like them.

Original Article by Nancy Sanderson.
A very wise Doctor in South America sends a very nice newsletter telling of the importance of minerals and Ph balance etc. Simple things for health. Here is an exerpt from his recent news that contains “dosages” of baking soda for colds and flu- these were published back in 1925 by Arm and Hammer Company.
My guess is that these would still hold true. Combine the soda with some essential oils like Thieves, Lemon, RC, Exodus II, etc. if you want to be more secure. And don’t forget the Thieves home and hand products!
In today’s modern world of medicine the FDA just will not let companies that sell products make medical claims about them unless they have been tested at great expense and approved as a drug. But this was not always the case and as we can see in the information in this chapter, which is from a 1924 booklet,[1] published by the Arm & Hammer Soda Company. On page 12 the company starts off saying, “The proven value of Arm & Hammer Bicarbonate of Soda as a therapeutic agent is further evinced by the following evidence of a prominent physician named Dr. Volney S. Cheney, in a letter to the Church & Dwight Company:
“In 1918 and 1919 while fighting the ‘Flu’ with the U. S. Public Health Service it was brought to my attention that rarely any one who had been thoroughly alkalinized with bicarbonate of soda contracted the disease, and those who did contract it, if alkalinized early, would invariably have mild attacks. I have since that time treated all cases of ‘Cold,’ Influenza and LaGripe by first giving generous doses of Bicarbonate of Soda, and in many, many instances within 36 hours the symptoms would have entirely abated. Further, within my own household, before Woman’s Clubs and Parent-Teachers’ Associations, I have advocated the use of Bicarbonate of Soda as a preventive for “Colds,” with the result that now many reports are coming in stating that those who took “Soda” were not affected, while nearly every one around them had the “Flu.”
Recommended dosages from the Arm and Hammer Company for colds and influenza back in 1925 were:
During the first day take six doses of half teaspoonful of Arm & Hammer Bicarbonate of Soda in glass of cool water, at about two hour intervals.During the second day take four doses of half teaspoonful of Arm and Hammer Bicarbonate of Soda in glass of cool water, at the same intervals.
During the third day take two doses of half teaspoonful of Arm and Hammer Bicarbonate of Soda in glass of cool water morning and evening, and thereafter half teaspoonful in glass of cool water each morning until cold is cured.
Dr. Mark Sircus, Ac., OMD and his full article about Banking Soda can be found at http://sodiumbicarbonate.imva.info/index.php/administration-methods/arm-hammer-soda-company/baf472984d04d0&id=4940fe5d8b&e=816bef8964
Moms and Dads around the country (and the rest of the world for that matter) are wondering what is the reality of the H1N1 and all the rumors?
Once they decide what to believe, they have to determine what thier own action will be. – Vaccinate- or Not
Change Diet – or Not, use Nutrition – or Not, Chiropractic – or Not , Accupuncture Or not, Detoxing programs – or Not, Essential Oils – or Not.

My personal choice is to use essential oils daily on my body and in my home- the Thieves cleaners fo rthe home, hands and body are great! Also the Thieves hand sanitizer- eliminate organisms without encouraging antibiotic resistance.
Raindrop technique for the family is a great preventative measure also. Moms- find a class to take and learn this powerful technique.
Inner Defense and Longevity capsules are in my cabinet also. Longevity on a daily basis and Inner defense if I start feeling something coming on.
DRINK WATER! This is one of the MOST important steps one can take… along with minimzing refined foods and sugars.
Of course, exercise, laughing, music, and good nutrition will enhance the immune system too.

AP News Wire April 25, 2009
Centers for Disease Control Acting Director Richard Besser, …
“Centers for Disease Control headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia April 24, 2009. A strain of flu never seen before has killed up to 60 people in Mexico and has also appeared in the United States, where eight people were infected but recovered, health officials said on Friday. Other reports claim up to 1,000 Mexican people have come down with the flu. The CDC says two flu drugs, Tamiflu and Relenza, seem effective against the new strain. Roche, the maker of Tamiflu, said the company is prepared to immediately deploy a stockpile of the drug if requested.”

As with any disease, the germ can only take hold if the immune system is weak - This was an argument between Bechamp and Pasteur over a hundred years ago and we are only starting to recognize the correctness of Bechamp. So to protect yourselves from any disease, be sure you are well hydrated, eat less acid causing foods (ie sugar, white flour, meats), get your exercise, relax, and be sure your body has a good supply of nutritional supplementation including minerals and Probiotics. AND Essential Oils may hold a key to safe prevention of diseases without the toxicity of vaccines.

ABSTRACT STUDY REFERENCE:
Effect of a Diffused Essential Oil Blend on Bacterial Bioaerosols S.C. Chao, D.G. Young, and C.J. Oberg, Weber State University, Ogden, UT. Journal of Essential Oil Research 10, 517-523 (Sept/Oct 1998).
Abstract: A proprietary blend of oils containing cinnamon, rosemary, clove, eucalyptus, and lemon was tested for its antibacterial activity against airborne Micrococcus luteus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Staphylococcus aureus. The bacteria cultures were sprayed in an enclosed area and the essential oil blend was diffused for a given amount of time. There was an 82 percent reduction in M. luteus bioaerosol, a 96 percent reduction in the P. aeruginosa bioaerosol, and a 44 percent reduction in the S. aureus bioaerosol following 10 minutes of exposure. (Price listed at end of News along with ordering information.)
On page 129 & 130 of the (4th Edition) Essential Oils Desk Referrence, it says:
“Studies conducted at Weber State University (Ogden, UT) during 1997 demonstrated its [the essential oil blend of clove, lemon, cinnamon bark, eucalyptus radiata and rosemary] killing power against airborne microorganisms. One analysis showed a 90 percent reduction in the number of gram positive Micrococcus luteus organisms after diffusing for 12 minutes. After 20 minutes of diffusing, the kill-rate jumped to 99.3 percent. Another study against the gram negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa showed a kill rate of 99.6 percent after just 12 minutes of diffusion.” *

Dr. Terry Friedmann, M.D. Anti-Microbial Blend…”Regarding my anti-microbial formula [see below], my strong belief is that this formula should be reserved for chronic bacterial, fungal, or viral infection, or for acute viral and bacterial infections, which could “slow you down” or lead to more serious complications. In other words, use this formula only in specific serious situations rather than preventive or maintenance, because we are dealing with a “powerful battleship” here! This formula should not be given to children 10 years or younger. I believe we are facing in the near future some deadly serious infections of epidemic proportions, which may threaten millions of people. We are certainly seeing an abundance of more widespread diseases right now. Examples are the West Nile virus and the gastrointestinal diseases of the commercial cruises (e.g. Norovirus)” * ~
