Squirrels and Rabbits in your garden?

Drop by your local barber shop and ask them to save you the hair. Place human hair around the border of the garden. Wild animals can’t stand it. The smell of many unseen humans in close proximity will drive them crazy.  Never tried it but sounds good.  I do have a guaranteed remedy, will let you know at a later date. It will be in my new book which is coming out in the spring though.  Talk Soon

Good O’ Garlic

My most favourite food and if I was asked.  Every one should be eating a half a clove a day. Garlic provides nourishment for the circulatory, immune and urinary systems. It aids in supporting with normal circulation, nourishing stomach tissues, maintaining normal blood pressure and aids the body’s natural ability to resist disease. Garlic is a natural antibiotic and fungicide.  And real good with cheese just before supper.  MMMMM good. Talk Soon

Aloe Vera Plant, Pretty Amazing

Aloe Vera has historically been known for assisting the functions of the gastrointestinal tract, and for its properties of soothing, cleansing and helping the body to maintain healthy tissues. This plant has a reputation for helping with digestion, aiding one’s blood and  circulation, as well as kidney, liver and gall bladder functions. Aloe contains at least three anti-inflammatory fatty acids that are helpful for the stomach, small intestine and colon.  It naturally alkalizes digestive juices to prevent over acidity – a common cause of digestive complaints. Also, great for cuts, scrapes, and burns.  A newly discovered compound in aloe, acemannan, is currently being studied for its ability to strengthen the immune system. Think every one should have one of these growing in one’s home.
