  1. Blocked ear: Wax can become hardened and stuck in the ear canal. Ear candles are a very effective and gentle way to release this wax. They also work very well for ears blocked with a head cold.
  2. Pain in left arm/rotator cuff: Natural anti-inflammatories like boswellia and curcumin work well but take time. Our customers get great benefit from NutriAdvanced CurCuDyn Forte. Weleda Ruta Grav can work well for tendon damage and inflammation and Weleda Rhus Tox works well for muscular and rheumatic pain.
  3. Sciatica: The best relief of from a steroid injection into the periformis muscle. Curcumin and bowellia will reduce inflammation. Curcudyn Forte or GAL Curcumin Complex. If the sciatic nerve is trapped by a disk, supporting the cartilage can help. Our customers get good results with One Nutrition Joint Factor and GAL UC II Cartilage.
  4. Castor Oil Uses: Can be taken as a laxative – make sure to buy organic if taking internally. It can also be used topically for eyelashes and eyebrows for hair growth. Some websites recommend castor oil for skin but I think it probably no better than rosehip or almond oil. Castor oil packs can be used for easing pains, including period pain or arthritis pain.
  5. Spots on Face: Most likely rosacea. Try Viridian Clear Skin Complex to support from the inside, and Salcura AntiAc face wash and moisturiser – very effective for all types of spots including rosacea.
  6. Heart Flutter: This could be a red flag for arrythmia so get it checked by your GP. Taking magnesium could help – try Viridian High Potency Magnesium or NutriAdvanced Mega Mag Muscleze. If you are drinking a lot of water, it could be a lack of electrolytes so put them back in with Viridian or Elete Sports Electrolytes or a pinch of sea salt in with the water.
  7. Pre-Diabetes: This can be often reversed with a low carbohydrate diet and use of supplements. Pre-Diabetes is often due to insulin resistance rather than a lack of insulin. Omega 3 fats support cell fluidity making the receptors more responsive to insulin. Try Unocardio+ as a high-quality option. Berberine, Bitter Melon and Alpha Lipoic Acid also improve sensitivity as well as protecting against damage from elevated blood sugars. Cinnamon and chromium can also help.
